By the Associated Press. EVANSTON, I, February 4—A group of clergymen hes expressed the | opinion that the churches of today are| not teaching and preaching a religion | that can effectively influence conduct | and character. \ This was announced by Dr. George, Betts, director of research in the School of Education of Northwestern Univer- sity, who asked 1,000 ministers, direc- tors of religious education, members of overhead church organizations, ors in_colleges and seminaries and nen active in church work, whether the church was presenting & religion | that was influencing character and con- | auct Three hundred replied. Only one out of every four answered in the affirma- tive. Nearly three ths qualified | their replies or answered “No." These answers” sald Prof. Betts, “do not prove the effectiveness or in- »flectiveness of preaching and teaching. Our pomt for the moment is the churchmen’s estimate of that effective- | ness—the degrees of confidence they have in the church’s program | “What many will interpret as a hope- | ful sign is that the ministers are| sh in their criticism than most of | the other groups, 45 per cent un- qualifiedly denying the ma ness of ent-day preaching teaching, and_ only laymen going be- | yond them. Surely, in 50 far as these | ministers are typical, the clergy_cannot be accused of overcomplacency.” ORGANIZATION OF LURAY DRAMA CLUB COMPLETED Constitution Committee Named to Report at Next Meeting.
