Diocesan Editors
Discuss Distribution
Of Church's Word
Ackerman, Dean of
Columbia Journalist
School, Speaks
Effective ways in which to use
modern communication facilities for
the vital message of the Christian
church were discussed this week at
the second annual conference for
editors of diocesan publications of
the Protestant Episcopal Church,
held in the College of Preachers
building on Mount Saint Alban. In
formal sessions lasting three days
were led by Dr. Carl W. Ackerman,
dean of the Graduate School of
Journalism at Columbia University
and member of the Council of Wash
ington Cathedral; Joseph E. Boyle,
director of publicity for the National
Council of the Episcopal Church
and editor of "The Spirit of Mis
sions." and the Rev. Howard Harper
of Waycross, Ga.. chairman of the
Association of Church Publications,
which was organized at the College
of Preachers last December.
The importance of diocesan publi
cations in helping distribute re
ligion to the people was stressed by
Dean Ackerman. "The greatest
problems in religion, as in industry,
are in the field of distribution,” he
said. “The church in the world of
tomorrow, in my opinion, must be a
distributor- of religion—not just a j
place where people go to attend j
services."
Co-operation Asked.

operation of all the diocesan leaders
from the bishop to the heads of the
various organizations.

choir director, who played on the
