Gallup Declares to Provi- dence Congregation — Religion in Politics. “The government of the city is con- trolled by churchmen,” declared Rev. Clarence M. Gallup, pastor of the Cen- tral Baptist church, in an address de- livered at the Calvary Baptist churca in Providence Monday night at a good citizenship rally under the auspices of the Providence Christian Endeavor un- fon. Rev. Mr. Gallup sald that there had been a marked improvement in condi- tlons in the city during the past few years. He stated that the proportion of Christian men in the city govern- ment, from the mayor down, is large. “Providence compares well with other cities in good government,” he declared. “The church may not at- tempt to govern a city, but it has the relation of righteousness. The church may best express itself by spiritualiz- lnlgh everything it comes in contact with. “There ig nothing that will create more interest in politics than the in- fusion of religion. The reason why many Christlan men will not be in public life and take offices is often be- cause they have done something they are ashamed of. If we have the right view of legal citizenship, we will have the right view of national citizenship,” — e FUNERAL.
