CHURCHES ARENOT CHRISTIAN, HE SAYS Archbishop of York Makes Startling Statement London, Aug. 15 (UP)—Churches are not and never were Christian in the opinion of the Rt. Rev. William Temple, newly appointed archbishop of York. That startling statement was made in an article by Dr. Temple which is one of a series attempting to an- swer the question “If Christ Came to London " “The world has seen the Church of England put forth all its forces concerning Welsh disestablishment and disendowment; it has not seen that church put forth a force at ai comparable to secure that the poor may be housed with decency or that children of the nation may have their fair chance in the life,” the archbishop-elect goes on to say. In brief, he charges the church Wwith being too ecclesiastical and not sufficiently Christian, Dr. Temple said that if most peo- ple were imperfect Christians, not all churchmen were un-Christian. Many business men and large em- ployers, he insists, set a fine example by their regular attendance at some congregation—either Anglican, or one of the free churches. Nine out of ten social workers, he adds, are convinced Christians. “The churches are not doing enough; and not enough of their members are doing anything at all; but nine-tenths of what is bei: done is done by church members,” Dr. Temple believes. He is unwilling to prophesy what Christ would say should He come to London, but he feels sure that all accepted standards would be cut right across by his deeper precep- tions of values. “Many that are first would be last,” he warns, “and many that are last would be counted among the first.” In conclusion he asserts that no one doubts the beauty of the Chris- tian idea. “The question is whether it s more than a beautiful dream,” 1is his challenge to church members throughout England and the Chris- ian world. “But we do not need to ask what Christ would say or do if He were here. He is here; He is everywhere, * CHESS TOURNAMENT ¥'. 4. Marshall of New York and Dr. Tartakower of Paris Winners of Third Round. Bad Kissingen, Germany, Aug. 15 (P—F. J.

READ HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS FOR BEST RESULTS AL SMITH CLUB MEETING SCHEDULED FOR TOMORROW Mayor and Attorney McDonough to Speak at Affair, Recalling Spring Campaign. The last city campaign will be re- called to mind tomorrow night at democratic headquarters when the Alfred E. Smith club will hold its initial meeting of the presidential campaign featuring as speakers Mayor Paonessa and Attorney Thom- as F. McDonough who carried the brunt of the democratic speaking campaign in the spring. This is the first time since election day that Paonessa and McDonough have been on the same speaking program. President Cyril J. Curtin of the Smith club has called the meeting for & o'clock at the party's headquarters in United building, and he will present a tentative program of activities leading up to the elec- tion on November 6. Mr. Curtin is making arrangements for radio re- ception of Governor Smith's accept- ance speech next week, with a meet- | ing of the club to precede. Plans|th are also being formulated for an cuting or clambake to be held after Labor Day. C.F, SITH SPEAKER N DEDICATION DAY (Continued from First Page) qu by no er Al ga da sq te ca that the dedication prove satisfactory. Mayor Paonessa, chairman of the | speakers committee, opened the meeting with a discussion of the question as to whether a. local or a natfonally known orator should be selected. He called attention to the fact that the observance is to be local for the most part, and that the sentiment about the city is for a New Britain man. He then men- | tioned the name of Mr. Smith, tell- | ing of the work Mr. Smith has | aone to make the memorial shaft 4 | reality and urging upon him that | he accept the honor which the com- mittee members had decided to | proffer him, Attorney P. F. McDon- ough and others added their expres- sions of favor. | Surprised and taken aback, Mr. Smith answered that he had attend- ed the meeting, supposing that Gen Pershing or Gen. Edwards was to be selected and prepared to recom- | mend . the latter, but with no thought that he was being consider- ed as the speaker. After some | urging that the original plan be fol- lowed out, Mr. Smith was convinced | that his colleagues were determined in their choice andshe accepted, Be. fore doing 8o, he asked if, in the | opinion of those present, the Amer ican Legion would be satisfied with the selection, and he was inform:d that prominent members had giv n their approval. Chairman John W. Lockett of the badge committee attended the meeting to ask suggestions os to who | should receive badges. The senti- ment of the committee appeared to ! be in favor of giving them to all members of the general committe but not to participants in the par- | ade. It was reason that those who are doing the work of preparing for the celebration should be given | something to remember ethob hrd | something to remember the obsery- ance by. It was also suggested that the three nearest of kin of each de- ceased soldier be given a different type of badge. Informal discussion of the me morial service program indicated sentiment for a switch in the plan suggested by the executive commit- | tee, to have this feature held on Saturday in conjunction with the cedication. The present plan is to have it on the following day. Mem- bers of the committee expressed a | belief that it would be poorly at- tended in spite of the fact that all clergymen in the city will have some« part in it and a large chorus will be heard. Coming on the day im- mediately following the dedication there was grave question in the minds of those at the meeting whether large crowds would again go to the park. | The {dea of a memorial service on Saturday afternoon will be laid be- fore the executive committee at its next meeting.

Explosive eruptions have the area for vears, he explains, and this has been frozen together. The materials consist, Dr. Jaggar writes, “of ice, gravel, boulders, bombs, pumice, ash and sand in a vast hummocky sea of jumble.” Four streams flow from the front of this near-glacier. Near-by and above, Pavlof volcano fumes constantly from its symmetri- cal cone, an American Fujiyama.
