Methodist churches in Indianapolis now have a combined membership of wpproximately 26,000, officials said. Although the Presbyterian state office does not keep data on Indianapolis church membership, records indicate that the Indianapolis Presbytery membership in the last decade has jumped from 13,809 to 16,194. Officials said most of the increase has occurred in the 16 Presbyterian churches here.

Small Increase Here

The Presbyterian office keeps no record on annual increases, but it was explained that there was a small increase during the last year. Local Baptist churches now have the largest membership in history, according to the Rev. Clive MecGuire, executive secretary of - the Indianapolis Baptist Association.

Baptists Gain 1152

In approximately 20 churches in the city, membership totals 12,387, an increase of 1152 over 1936. The 45 Christian churches in Marion County have shown an increase in membership of 1500 from July 1, 1936, to July 1, records in the Indianapolis Christian Church Union offices. The total membership today is about 22,000. According to church officials, the gain during the last year is not unusual. been shown annually, for the most part, during the last 10 years.

People’s Cry

1:6-14; 2:23-25

By W. E. GILROY, D.D, Editor of Advance ROSPERITY brings ils problems for races and nations as well as for individuals, The children of Israel, settled in Egypt where they had gone from their own famine-stricken land to the help and protection of the powerful and illustrious Joseph, had an era of great prosperity in their new home, How terse and powerful are the descriptions in the Bible! How could one convey within a few words so complete a picture as is conveyed in the words that ‘the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and the land was filled with them? Just how long this continued is not clear, but about 300 years apparently elapsed from the time of Joseph and the rise of this new dynasty with a king over Egypt “who knew not Joseph.”

¥ ” Ld

HEN began one of the great episodes in the long history of anti-Semitic movements. With a swiftness similar to that in our own time with which the Jews have been persecuted and harried or driven from Germany, this new king aroused his subjects to racial preju-

ith much the same motives and arguments as have been manifested in anti-Jewish movements of our own time, he pointed to the growing power of these Jewish peole and the danger that he believed Shey constituted in the state. “The people of the children of

we.” There was probably no more truth in this assertion than there is truth in similar prejudicial statements concerning the Jews today. In the ancient time, as today, anti-Jewish prejudice took to itself high-sounding phrases and the profession of idealistic ends. “Let us deal wisely with them,” said this persecuting monarch: but his wisdom consisted in enslaving the people, in setting taskmasters over them, and in binding them with heavy burdens. o Ld Ld

JHE persistency and strength of the Jewish people, then as now, were manifest in their continued growth despite their oppression, Bitterness and hard service could not destroy the spirit of that people. In their distress and groaning also, a new spirit began to move among them, They were concerned less about the ease, and comfort, and wealth that had been taken from them, and they were forced to think of higher things, of freedom and right and truth. The record is that though earthly covenants had been broken, God heard the groaning of the people, and remembering His covenant with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, “He saw the children of Israel and took knowledge of them.” The truth is that the people be-~ gan themselves to be mindful of that covenant. God never forgets or breaks His covenant, His attitude is unchanging, and the people, in their distress, discovered

are more and mightier than

realities that they themselves had forgotten. Y ik, gute :

225 U. S. and Canadian Delegates to Sail

Times Special NEW YORK, July $.--American churchmen are preparing to leave for Europe to take part in the two world conferences which will bring together representatives of Protestantism from most of the nations of the globe. Two hundred and twentyfive churchmen of the United States and Canada are to leave shortly for Oxford, England, for the Conference of the Universal Christian Council for Life and Work, which will be in session from July 12 to 26. Of ‘these 85 are official delegates, and the others have been drafted for special service. The Oxford meeting will be followed by that in Edinburgh, Scotland, on Faith and Order. The influence of American churchmen on both of these conferences is expected to be very great. At the Oxford meeting on “Church, State and Community,” the awareness of United States churchmen of totalitarianism probably will be expressed. The 400 official delegates at Oxford are to deal with a definition of the place and function of the Church as & world-wide institution,
