The recent report on prohibition by the research department of the Fed- eral Council of Churches is attacked a8 “an inexcusable betrayal of many church bodies,” in a statement issued by high officlaly of the Methodist Episcopal Church, Methodist Eplsco- pal Church South, the Methodlst Protestant Church and the United Brethren Church. The statement sald the *present confusion seems to be due in large part” to the federal council's report, adding: “We repudiate it as unsclen- tific in its methods, unwarranted and misleading in its conclusions, a prod- uct of provinclalism, a striking ex- ample of the domination of local sur- roundings and special conditions.” Attached to the statement were the signatures of Bishop James Cannon, jr., chairman of the Commission on | Teraperance and Social Service of the Methodist Eplscopal Church ~South; Bishop Willlam J°. McDowell, presi- | dent, and Dr. Clavence True Wilson, | secretary of the board of temperanve, | pronhibidon and public morals of the Methodist Episcopal Church; Bishop W. M.

Voluntary Organization. “The report more recently issued as of and from the Church Temper- ance Soclety of the Protestant Epis- copal Church by Dr. Empringham has served only to reveal that the Church Temperance Soclety is a ' voluntary organization, stated by a bishop of that .church to be ‘semi-moribund, that it does not represent the Episco- pal Church, and that, on the contrary, the clergy and laity of that church are in favor of the maintenance of the prohibition law. and the suprem- acy of the United States authorit | over-all anti-social interests in ev | part of the country,” the statement aid. There has been no change in the | fidelity to the prohibition law of the churches which we represent. That law is, in the words of the President of the United States, ‘a salutary law.' Tha liquor traffic is prohibited solely upon the grounds of its evil effect upon spciety.
