April 15—Churches in | {the United States showed a net mem- | bership gain in 1930 of 88,350, com | pared with 242,748 gained in 1929 and | more than a million in 1928, Dr. G. L. | Kieffer, church statistician, notes in his | annual report in the May issue of the Christian Herald, released yesterday. Dr. Kieffer raises the ~question of “whether the churches are actually gaining or losing ground and losing vigor of growth.” He reported that the Methodists, who in 1929 showed a decline for the first time in & hundred vears, suffered a fur- ther net loss of 43,211 in 1930. The figures showed that the Baptists and Lutherans together accounted for more than the total of all increases, the Baptists _gaining 74,706 and the Lu- therans 56,180, Dr. Kieffer's statistics showed an in- cresse in Catholic communicants of 17.- 526 and a decrease in Presbyterians of 22763. An_increase of 16,532 in the *number of Protestant Episcopalians was shown. PANAMA CITY.—Spanish paper on the street just now says the King of Spain is out.
