Ministers representing the Federation
of Church Councils of the Calumet
region which Is affiliated with a national body met in Gary yesterday and completed the organiaxtion of the council. The Itev. W. F. Swttser of Ham. mond was elected chairman after which
the members proceeded to outline a pro
gram for united action.
i Probably the most Important feature in the plans provides for a united effort In behalf of the worklngman In the Calumet region who under present conditions is forced to work seven days a
week. The minister takes the position that if it Is impossible that every man
be at rest from physical labor on Sun
day that he be given at least one day a week on which he might retire front work. To bring this about the minis
ters agreed to bring as much as possl
ble their personal influence to bear on
employers.
The next meeting will be held at
Whitlng'on February 27.
At the Whiting meeting, the council will discuss plans to bring about a general observance of the &abbath day, or a day of rest in seven, tor the working man; the nullification of laws, and the segregation of vice. The ministers take the position that there are too many laws on the statute books which are considered dead letters by the public,
nd the organization proposes to work
vigorously against the segregation of vice which It considers nothing more
than a compromise movement by dive-
keepers who have been forced to re
cede from the flagrant and open stand for vice.
Ten denominations were represented at the meeting held In the Gary T. M. C. A. building, but the number of churches and denominations who may Join is unlimited. The denominations represented were ' the Presbyterians, Congregatlonllsts, Baptists, Christians, United Presbyterians, Methodists, German Reform, Hungarian Reform, German Evangelical and English Evangelical.

Webster, Congregational church, Whit ing.
Third vice president Rev. Eugene Vecsey, Hungarian Reform church, East Chicago. Recording secretary Rev. G. H. Bright, Methodist church. Whiting. Corresponding secretary Rev. If. A. Crooks, United Presbyterian church, Indiana Harbor.
