Churches Are to Repay Old Debt to Area

Federation to Study Means of Aiding Needy Congregations. BY CLIVE M’GUHtE Executive Secretary Indianapolis Baptist Association. Indications that the churches of Indianapolis will sometime undertake to pay an ancient debt for service rendered by churches on the close-in South and West Side are pointed out by Dr. Ernest N. Evans, executive secretary of the Church Federation of Indianapolis. Hanging on his office wall in the Y. M. C. A. building is the map prepared several years ago by the Indianapolis Community Plan Committee. They have marked in solid black the area in question. It covers census tracts 20, 22, 57, 58, 76, 77, 78 and 88 and reports a population of a Lout 30,000. On the map it looks like the two equal sides of a mammoth isosceles triangle with its apex at the corner of Missouri and Washington-sts. It covers an area of about four square miles. Prospered Years Ago A generation ago this district had churches that carried on as “profitably” as any in the city. It was a favorite section for middle-class householders who wanted to live within walking distance of the business district. Now the old churches are largely gone and only a few of the old householders remain. The migration farther out that started about the turn of the century turned an army of well-trained leaders into the outlying churches, greatly to the enrichment of those churches but almost to the total undoing of the churches at the center from which the valuable gift of personnel was drawn. Some of the outstanding members on official boards of the strongest churches relate with pride that they used to play in Military Park and around the South Side market. Now Present Problem These sections, in turn, have not fared well in the transaction. They have suffered the fate of other closein residence sections in other cities. They present today an outstanding home mission problem in Indianapolis. Their population has increased; human needs have mounted to the sky; the churches that have been able to weather the ordeal of intervening years have done so against untold handicaps and in some cases only by reason of incredible persistence on the part of a few of the old saints who stoutly refused to let their “testimony” die. At the time when financial resources were diminishing to the vanishing point these churches were faced with human problems many times over more difficult and more numerous than they had encountered in their more prosperous days. Several of the denominations still: represented in the field are demonstrating rare strategy in projecting here a vigorous home mission program. Churches that otherwise would not be able to meet, the increasing social demands made upon them are given the backing of their denominations. Still Carry On Fletcher Place Methodist Church, Mayer Chapel Presbyterian Church and Garden Baptist Church are cases in point. All of these churches, representing as they do a total denominational attack, are providing their increasing constituency with a varied program of social activities. The character effect of this service can not be tabulated, but it is a strong contributing factor in the direction of community welfare and rehabilitation of homes. At the suggestion of church leaders Dr. Evans is placing information about this close-in community before the committee of the church federation of which Dr. John S. Ferguson is chairman. There is more than a possibility that this step will point the way toward a type of home mission work in Indianapolis very rare in large city centers. Sidener Will Greet Class 'Old Timers' Presentation of the “52 Timers,” members of the Christian Men Builders Class of the Third Christian Church who attended sessions each Sunday last year, is to be made at the class hour tomorrow by Vic Kelly, president. One hundred eighteen men accomplished the feat. Merle Sidener, teacher, is to speak on the subject, “A Little BitIndependent,” and special music has been arranged by Elmer A. Wilson, vice president in charge of social affairs. Station WFBM is to broadcast the entire service, beginning at 9:30. Assemblies of God Delegates to Meet Delegates from the central district council of the Assemblies of God are to meet in Indianapolis May 4 to 8 for their 1936 convention. Time and place for the convention was set by 17 members of the council’s time and place committee in a meeting here this week.

Church Leader Calls for Life to Be Rebuilt

Bring Divine Principles Into Politics and Industry, Is His Plea. Protestant ministers are advised to insist on the rebuilding of present day life on divine principles, to avoid modem “isms” and to bring the reign of Christ into politics and industry, by Dr, John McDowell of New York, secretary of the National Board of Missions of the Presbyterian Church in the United States. Speaking before an interdenominational conference of clergymen in Indianapolis this week, Dr. McDowell discussed “The Christian Minister and the Present Crisis.” In answer to the question, “Is it Christ or chaos fox the world?” he said, in part: “The problems confronting us in the present crisis are well nigh insoluble. The statesmen and economists are baffled. Restoration Unwanted “No attempt to restore the conditions of the past can be successful, or if successful, satisfactory. It is now clear to all thinking men that our social and economic life, our political, national and international life must be rebuilt from the bottom.” Commenting on the choice of Christianity or Christianity plus some modern “ism," Dr. McDowell said, “It is no part of the Christian minister’s business to preach any of the modern ‘isms,’ nor is it his business to preach against them. He has another and larger message to deliver, and a more important work to do.” In answer to the question, “Is the Christian minister to be a spectator or a leader in the present crisis?” he declared that the minister no longer can remain a spectator of social evils or economic wrongs, nor accept with complacency anti-Christian theories and practices in politics, industry and national and world affairs. Minister’s Function “It is not the function of the minister to prescribe economic and political programs. It is his function to bring the reign of Christ into all realms of human life; and surely the reign of Christ is not reconcilable with war or sweat shops or slums or economic oppressions or racial persecutions or selfish nationalism.” Dr. McDowell asserted that the time has come when, as Christians and as citizens, “we should look less to Washington and more to God and ourselves for the recovery we need and must have if democracy is to continue in America.” Radio Devotionals on WIRE Program The Rev. Malcolm McNeal, Prentice Presbyterian Church pastor, is to conduct devotional broadcasts sponsored by the Church Federation of Indianapolis next week over radio station WIRE. His theme is to be “Strength for a Good Work.’’ Music during the week is to be provided by Mrs. Ann Spencer, Mrs. Hazel Borshenberger, Mrs. Everett Baylsss, Mrs. Lee Peters, Miss Mary Elizabeth Meredith, Miss Mary Margaret McNeal, Miss Alma McNeal and Mrs. Malcolm McNeal. The program is to be on the air each morning at 6:45.

The first year’s accomplishments of the Diocesan Commission on Church Music, appointed by the Most Rev. Joseph E. Ritter, Catholic Bishop of Indianapolis, Jan. 21, 1935, were made public this week in a report by Elmer A. Steffen, diocesan director of music and secretary of the commission. Included in the activities was compilation of diocesan church music regulations; sponsorship of Catholic Day during the North Central Music Educators’ Conference, held in Indianapolis last March; the mailing of white lists of church music to pastors of the diocese; the completion of records of the music and choir personnels in all churches of the diocese and the establishment of a reference library for choir directors and organists. Plans for the coming year include the participation of local high schools in the congregational singing of mass for the observance of Mary’s Day in May; summer school lectures and the further study of school music needs. Members of the commission include, besides Mr. Steffen, the Rt. Rev. Raymond R. Noll, Vicar General of the Diocese and moderator of the music group, the Rev. John O’Connell, the Rev. John T. O’Hare and the Rev. Clement Bosler.

Germany Topic for Dr. Colton Dr. E. T. Colton, authority on European affairs, is to address the Y. M. C. A. Big Meeting at Keith's tomorrow on the subject, “What's Next irx Germany?” It has been stated that “Dr. Colton explains the Germany of today so that it is easily understandable.” He has made at least one visit yearly to Europe since 1920, and has toured Germany three times since the present government has been in power. Extensive travel in Russia and Italy, as well as the other European nations, have lent an objective view to the subject of tomorrow's address. Y. M. C. A. leaders indicate that Dr. Colton is not an exponent of any particular form of government, but rather an open-imnded observer of present political movements. The C. M. B. Glee Club, assisted by John Nelson, accordion soloist, is to present a half-hour program before the lecture. The meeting, wk ich begins at 3, is open to the public without charge.
