There is an unfortunate and some- 'what widespread misapprehension re- garding the effect on local comgre- gations, of the proposed union. be- tween Congregationalists, Method- ists and Presbyterians, The following paragraohs, taken in large part from the basis of union should remove all doubts: The section on polity in the basis of union begins with the statement that in view of the Joint Committee on Union "it is possible to provide for substantial local freedom and at the same time secure the benefits of a strong comnexional tie and c-oper- ative efficiency." 'Co-operative effi- ciency and local freedom' was the watchword of dhe Joint Committee on Union in outlining the organiza- tion of the united church. FIRST: For charges formed 'sub- sequently to union there will be, 1.--""The session," oonsisting of the minister and a group of elders elected by those in full church mem- bership. The rights and duties of the session are in general those of the session in any Presbyterian church at the present time, 2. ~The Committee of Stewards," corresponding exactly to the Board of Managers in Presbyterian congre- gations. 3.-- "The Official Board," corres ponding t¢ the Quarterly Board of Methodist congregations, and consist- Ing of "the Session and Committee of Stewards, with representatives in full church membership of such other departments of church work as may be agreed on by the General Coun- ¢il" (the body corresponding to the Presbyterian General Assembly, or the Methodist General Conference). The duties of the "Official Board" are: 1.--To secure contributions for missionary and other general objects of the church, 2. --To select representatives, in full church membership, of the pas- toral charge to the Presbytery. 3.--To submit to the pastoral charge or local church for ifs con- sideration reports on life and work, including a full statement of receipts and expenditures, and of indebted- ness and of estimates for the ensuing year, 4,--To transmit from the pastoral charge, through the Presbytery, to the Settlement Committee represen- tations concerning the pastoral rela- tion, ' SECOND: This threefold organ- ization of the local congregation was considered by the Jeint Commiittee on Unjom to be more effective thaw that existing in any of the uniting churches at the present time, and will he the form of organization for charges to be constituted subsequent to the Union, but it is expressly de- clared that charges previous to union "shall be entitled to comn- tinue the organization and practices enjoyed by them at the time of the union, subject in general affairs to the legislation, principles and disel- pline of the united church. Their re- | ves in the next higher gov- erning body or court shall be chosen as at present." Charges existing at the time of the union may, however, if they so desire, adopt at any time the plan of organiza prescribed for the pastoral to be formed subsequent to the union. There is thus absolute local freedom to change or mot to change. So carefully the basis of un- jon safeguard local freedom, that a paragraph is added which states that Yehurches, charges, circuits or con- gregations received subsequent to the union into the united church, with the approval of Presbyteries, shall be entitled if they so desire, to the privileges of the preceding sec- tion." Surely, in the light of these quota- tions, it is utterly aside from the facts to speak or think of this union as involving the coercion of congre- gations. byterian church can go into the union , in organization or practice, but will have the advantage of serv- ing in a wider fellowship of congre- gations and of uniting their gifts and efforts in the more éffective and com- prehensive missionary policy of a united church in which demomina- tional rivalry has given way to com- mon effort, 3 SUBURBAN AREA COMMISSION. the Third Commissioner.
