Contributing factors in the problem of disease, were given to ignorance, poverty and neglect, as the personal or Individual responsibility. THE PABT OF THE CHURCH The Church can, through emphasizing the responsibility of tho individual and family relationship, help to make people aware of the dangers and methods of the con trol of disease.

GEORGE W. HARVEY, Religions Editor Followine the recent convocation held at Howard university, it is expected that church groups, conferences and other socio religious groups will be stirred to militant action on the disorganizing forces rampant in our country and world today. Following the theme: "The Church and Social Disorganization," Dr. Paul B. Corne rley, associate professor of publics nealtn at Mowaro university.

ik During coming Issues; of The Pittsburgh Courier, our religious editor. Rev. George W. Harvey, will present summary articles and findings as they were presented and discussed at the SSth Convocation at Howard university, Washington, D. November 14 18 on the general theme: THE CHURCH AND SOCIAL DISORGANIZATION." Follow It weekly.

spoke on "Religion and the Cure of Illness." said: "We must be continually at work because patterns must be changed In individuals. Disease and its cure must be considered both from its physical and pbychological aspect." RELIGION AND ILLNESS Disease Is a disorganizing fac tor, because it is both organic and emotional, its control ana cure are tied up with many other social and economic conditions in which the Church can play a definite part. His plea was for a greater understanding and contribution from the Church and religion in helping to change and reshape individual patterns of thought, action and life. Religion, he said, could help cure illness through its contribution to the emotional life, by helping to change attitudes, convictions and patterns in individual and family life. During the convocation, stress was laid on the need of combining the program of the Church with the practical social and economic needs of the Negro in his local community.

Since life in the world has passed from the simple to the complex, social disorganization must not only be recognized, but a concerted attack must be made. WHAT WE FACE The Church must become alert and combine. its forces, with other existing organizations that are grappling with the many present and possible future factors that will arise in American and Negro life.
