here today and last night. The ses- I

il in attendance at the sessions.
There are 1, 013 Methodist mins
ters now studying and on trial pre
paratory to becoming elders, an in
crease of more than 187 over last
year, Dr. Π. J. Wade, Chicago, cor-.,,
respf ndlnsr secretary of the commit
tee on conservation and advance*,
told the member» of the conference.
"There were 309 ministers who
died in 1921; tliero are 623 super
numerary -preachers, and 3,583 re
tired ministers," he said. "Since
June 1, 1919, $40,768,340 have been
paid Into the treasury of the Meth
odist Episcopal church for the Meth
odist centenary progTam, an Increase
of over 360 per cent In giving of the

The ideal· of self determination

stirred tho people of Asia and Africa
to their depths, said Kov. Dr. Titus
I.owe of Now York, recently elected
corresponding secretary of the board
of foreign missions of tho Methodist
Kplscopal church, in an address here
last night at the conference. Dr.
Ix>wo Characterized the recent con
ference, on limitation of armaments
and I'aclilc problems as the greatest
achievement In foreign missions In
many centuries. Ho said in part;
"In Japan there Is a cry for rice
and α roof and for a share in the
government on the part of an ever
increasing number in that empire,
a rising tide of democracy in that
country -with its autocratic govern
ment. In ChinR wo have a xreat de
velopment in which a quarter of the
human race is endeavoring to or
ganize Itself in a popular govern
ment. Wo have never yet appreciat
ed the magnitude of that movement
of 400 million In China. In India
the British empire Is transferring· to
the people great government re
sponsibilities.
"There is insistent need that spir
itual ideals resting on a foundation
of education, not the Ideals of Ignor
ant anarchy and materialism, shall
dominate these movements.
"Think of the race question. Un
less wo turn a new page in history
and work out some means of co-op
eration between races wo are going
forth to a struggle even worse than
I tjiat through which wo have ,1ust
come. All the time wo aro preaching
to the world In our commercial and
international relationships and in all
ways of communication with the
world. If we preach discord and
• contempt there can be only one re
' suit.
"Industrialism, thougli farther ad
vanced In Japan, is making rapid
progress in China. Wo are export
ing not only our machinery, but our
industrial protyems.
ι "Tho Washington conference was
II a foreign missionary affair becausce
it took great steps toward the ac
■ complishment of the ultimate end of
• foreign missions, which is the estab
lishment of good will and hrother
• hood among the nations. But it is
1 not enough to make treaties with
out the spirit Of confidence, mutual
' good will and moral integrity.
"The time has gone by when for
i oigrr missions can he regarded as the
specialty of a few fanatics.
' "Today there are considerably,
• more than a million Christians irr
• China."
