OR, VALE ORGES CHURCH PAPER

Presbyterian Candidate for U. S. Moderator Lists

‘Platform.’

By EMMA RIVERS MILNER Times Church Editor Dr. Roy Ewing Vale of Indianapolis plans to inaugurate a new Presbyterian newspaper to be sent weekly to the homes of 2,051,869 members of the Presbyterian church in the U. 8. A. if he is elect-

ed moderator of the denomina~

announced by Dr. Vale as prospective moderator. He is the pastor of the Tabernacle Presbyterian church, 34th st. and Central ave, and sporisored by the Indianapolis Presbytery for the moderatorship. Dr. Vale did not séek the honor of head of his historie church. But having been “drafted” by his fellow churchmen, he considers it imperative to state the goals and principles upon which he stands. A new moderator to succeed Dr. Henry Sloane Coffin will be elected Ra le Jo a »

To Work Diligently

If Dr. Vale should be the successful candidate, he will work dillgently, he says, to found the newspaper so that Presbyterians may be informed concerning their own church -and the events of the religious world. It will be printed with the church’s present facilities and financed through ° taxation. Thus it will not depend upon individual subscriptions for churchwide distribution. A second goal of Dr. Vale as moderator will be to develop a definite

plan whereby unemployed ministers, particularly chaplains returning from the war, may be assisted to find pastqpates, whereby churches without ministers be aided in filling their pulpits and whereby dissatisfied ministers may change to more suitable posts. Under present conditions, there is no prescribed method for meeting these needs. Religious education in connection with public schools, such ag is sanctioned by the state law in Indiana and other states, is necessary for the good of the nation, Dr. Vale thinks. He would; therefore, as a third aim, try to further such teaching and likewise try to stréngthen the work of evangelism among Presbyterians.

Urges More Gifts

In the fourth place, he would encourage increased gifts to mis-| sions at home and abroad; and fifth, he would “develop steadily! and patiently the interracial cooperation necessary to solve our mutual problems, remembering that our country should be ‘The Land Where Hate Must Die.” ‘To work toward national Presbyterian union is Dr. Vale's sixth goal; and to urge that the best possible training facilities be provided for
