serious situations outside of New York city itself with which it is incumbent upon them to deul. As a result practically '$1,000,000 has been budgeted for the work to be done here. East Ouch ko as a municipality will receive approximately $100,000 of this fund. East Chicago (West End.) A meeting was held at the II. K. c Jairi li. Chicago and liuring avenues, on Monday evening at which th national organisation was represented by Dr. R. I". I.ie.'fendorl er. survey secretary of
the Twentieth Century Commission, and
I he rcKinnal organization by Ir. It. K. Ie!ira. fx. cutive secretary of the Calumet Missionary Society. These gentlemen tame prepared to niako definite suggest ions which were outlined in blue prints projected on a screen so that all cMild see te tentative plans. Hey. Ceo. 15. Jones, 'pastor of the church, presided and very interesting talks were made by the church representatives and by the architect who was present to explain the plans. It is proposed to erect a community house adjacent to and connected with the church building proper wherein will be found parlors, reading rooms, name rooms, gymnasium, kitchen. dining room, an da dormitory section providing between forty and fifty rooms for housing yonnt; men. The discussion at the close of the Conference brought out the fact that this institution would be designed to provide the. facilities and activities of a community house proper and would in no wise take the place of either a T. M. C. A. or a Y. YV. C. A. building; that the functions of these various institutions were wholly distinct with no appreciable overlapping, but that while it would be a Methodist enterprise jet denominational lines would be entirely forgotten in its activities and management. The meeting was attended by seventy men coming from the various churches ..f the city. A Tine supper was served by the church ladies at 6:30. Indiana Harbor. Last night at the Methodist church, these same representatives were present at a supper meeting with about fifty men and women of the church present. Rev. Klmer Jones presided and at the conclusion of the supper, addresses wore made by Dr. DeBra. and Ir. Diefendorf er. Dr. Diefendorfer made a rapid survey of the needs of the. various sections of the United States, passing in panorama from Xew York City where a tenth of the population of the whole country may be found within a radius of twentyfive miles from a common center, across the continent to the border of New Mexico -where." said hg. "second only to the ti qro rroblem in the north. e find outside of New York city the ftravtst situation. Right here, however. ou have the great world problems epitomized in your
Calumet cong- sled districts. Right here in this wonderful industrial center you have a situation that the world at large knows nothing about and one which all denominations of the Christian church has too long neglected. l'or this reason, we are proposing to spend one fortieth of the whole sum set aside for the development of all t he stales of the union." In this end of the city also the p!an provides for an addition to the church
building proper, this addition to provide in a modified form the same recreational f.nd social facilities designed for the west end. The meeting was a most interesting and enthusiastic one and will be followed by other meetings and other conferences in the r.ear future.
