Has HEAR DISCUSSIONS OF CHURCH NEEDS

DePauw Preachers’ Parley |

‘Told What's Wrong With Religion.

| | Times Special GREENCASTLE. Ind, Jan. 15— Ministers attending the second day of the Preachers’ Conference at DePauw University heard seven speakers deliver diverse opinions on the state of the church here yesterday. C.| Clifford Bacon, First M. E. Church pastor, Marshalltown, Ia. said [“Christianity is suffering today becatise the thought is widespread that| religious teachings are moral restraints.” It lis the duty of pastors to disprove this contention and show that, rather than acting as a restraint, Christianity gives courage to face life, he said..

eligious Work Harder Now

D Charles R. Brown, Dean Emeritus of Yale Divinity School, declared “it is much harder to do religious: work and to build up the Christian Church than it was when I was ordained 47 years ago.” The Rev. Oscar T. Olson, Cleveland said: “It is not for the Church today to continue to meet the material needs of a secular society, but rather to extend and promote the supreme function of the Church, which is worship.” “Human naturalism has begun to . push [God into the background when the faith begins to replace austere worship with ‘added attractions’,” "he declared.

Bishop Hughes Spoke Bishop Edwin Holt Hughes of the Methodist Church spoke on “Ministerial Balance.” “The minister should be evidence of balance to an unbalanced community,” he said. | “God is a balanced God—a balance of power, love, wisdom,

mercy and justice.” Preaching should maintain an equilibrium between intellect, will and emotion, Bishop Hughes concluded. . Harold W. Roupp, professor of preaching at the Boston University School of Theology, declared that “the | prime objective of preaching / should be to help people face life, to make them equal to the business of living.” “Ministers should make God real. Ministers should—and I am not being blasphemous—play God,” Prof. Roupp said.

Only Deficit Left

Dr/ Edward A. Steiner, professor of applied Christianity at Grinnell College, said “Religion in America is comprised of too many movements ‘using business technique, created |as life savers, and all that is left is a deficit.” Prof. Steiner scored heavily the failure of the clergy to fulfill the needs of modern man “for spiritual companionship,” striking at the social inactivity of American churches. Paul Hutchinson, managing editor of The Christian Advocate, set the | application of Samaritan Christianity in the presence of social [conflict as the task for the preacher in a day of class struggle. Stressing™ the rise of internal strife in an industrial era, Mr. Hutchinson said, “Vast changes are going to take place in the relations of classes to one another. It is the sheerest folly for a minister to say that| he is apart from the class struggle.” Inthe growing crisis, the pastor's first [duty is “to make a thorough study of contemporary tendencies,” Mr. Hutchinson stated. In ProteStantism, which he called “a middle cla institution,” preaching must respond to the needs of a group “who feel themselves giving ground in the class struggle and are afraid,” Ye speaker said.

H.E.ROSS IS NAMED EPAUW PROFESSOR

I'M GOING TO BAKE HOT BISCUITS

By RUTH FINNEY Times Special Writer

ASHINGTON, Jan. 15.—1If anyone can bring General Motors officials and strikers into agreement, Michigan's young Governor is probably the man. Men on both sides of the dispute know Frank Murphy and trust him. He earned a reputation for fairness when he was a judge. He demonstrated that he was a friend of workers during the dark depression days when he was Mayor of Detroit. He called on city financiers and businessmen to help him reorganize the city Government, though as a whole they had fought him, and won their respect by cutting the city budget from $90,000,000 to: $60,000,000 even while feeding the needy. Since then he has been ccnquering new’ problems halfway around the world in the Philippines, and at 43 he has a breadth of experience equalled by few young men—or older ones for that matter.

RANK MURPHY was born at Harbor Beach, on Michigan's “thumb,” of a father who was not only Irish but a Fenian. The boy

and freckled. He grew up hearing factory whistles start the day for Yorkers at 6 a. m. and end it at 6 p. m. He resented the long hours, though they did not touch him. His father was a lawyer, and young Murphy graduated from Michigan law school in 1914. When war came he went with the A. E. F. After the war he was one of a group of young officers selected for university training abroad. He asked to go to Dublin. The English found he was attending Sinn Fein meetings and warned him to stop it. He didn’t. Back in the United States, he took a job as junior law clerk and eked out a meager salary by teaching English in Detroit night schools, which he continued even after becoming instructor in law at the University of Detroit. Years later in his first mayoralty campaign, when the votes were counted from the districts where he had taught, it was found that his old friends had not forgotten him. There was one interlude in this teaching era. Woodrow Wilson made Mr. Murphy a special United States Attorney to handle war-fraud cases, and the young attorney, then 27, prepared his cases with such skill and argued them so convincingly that he sent three men to jail —the only ones convicted for profiteering. That record made Mr. Murphy famous, and in 1923 he was elected Judge of the Detroit Recorder's Court. ” x = E SET about reforming judicial procedure, organizing a bonding bureau, calling in psychiatrists to advise about prisoners, calling experts to his assistance in passing sentence. In 1930 Detroit was in the throes

{of a political scandal; its Mayor was

recalled. Liberals drafted Mr. Murphy to run for the office. He stipulated that no.one must contribute more than $1 to ais campaign. He called himself a “radical.” His opposition called him a Galahad. He was swept into office and immediately found the unemployment problem on his hands. He created an unemployment committee to register families and find jobs. He enlarged his Public Welfare Bureau and set it to work giving relief. He organized a Homeless Men’s Bureau. This was pioneer work in 1930 and 1931 and Detroit businessmen complained, but he kept on and cut enough from other city expenditures to bear the cost. He was re-elected in the face of furious opposition. But ir 1933 President Roosevelt named him Governor General of the Philippines. Father Coughlin, then a Roosevelt

His sister Mrs. William Teanan, was his offcial hostess in Manila. He likes to ride horseback and when in school was a track star and boxer. He tried polo in the Islands but was poor at it. He is addicted to double-breasted coats and blue shirts, and to soft white shirts when wearing a dinner coat. Abraham Lincoln is his major hero. He is- religious, studios, grave.

England and Ireland Renew Trade Parley

By United Press LONDON, Jan. 15—Eamhn De Valera left for Dublin today after participating in the first move in

.| more than four years between Great

Britain and the Irish Free State toward shaking hands and ending the Anglo-Irish economic fight. Although it was reported that De Valera’s conversation with Malcolm MacDonald, Dominions Secretary, had not attained any “helpful” results, and although the whole range of Anglo-Irish difficulties were covered, another attempt is to be made before the coronation to formulate concrete settlement proposals. The way for yesterday’s contact was paved recently when the Irish Free State extended Great Britain’s monopoly of Irish coal imports for another year in return for a guarantee to take an equal quantity of Irish exports.
