Opposition to the move came from minirterial delegates while laymen felt their group was not giving what it could.

A proposed amendment to hold an annual general council was dropped after warning that it would cost an additional per year. In the area of spending money, the council approved the recommendation to put towards television programs. During the next two years, this sum will back experimental TV programs to be channeled through private stations. A local slant will be aimed for in keeping the cost below that for network showings.

P. Shepherd criticizes the Church of England for its "reactionary rigidity" towards divorce and remarriage in a book published Wednesday. Canon Shepherd, of Worcester Cathedral, says in the book Marriage Was Made for Man, that the church already is too alienated from the life of the majority of working men without taking a stand on divorce and remarriage that can oniy widen the gulf.

Shepherd said the ban on remarriage in church makes no distinction between the innocent and the guilty parties tn a divorce and "inflicts a grievous hurt upon Christian people who have suffered the wreck of their first marriage and now want the blessing of God upon a new BlUlMllllllllig Parking One of the few women to speak to the gathering of church commissioners.

J. R. Mutchmor told the commissioners that Canada's unemployment problem will only be solved if there is a general "hold the line" -policy. Urges "Hold The Line" "This policy, plus wise planning by governments and industry, with intelligent co-operation or organized labor and the support of an informed public, will keep unemployment at the lowest possible levels," he said. Canada's present unemployment picture Is due, to a large part, to recent declining trade.

"This decline is due, in part, to Canada pricing herself out of i some sections of the world mar- i kPt. and in part to Communist competition which is rapidly increasing." Dr. Mutchmor said. United Church Ups Pensions For Clerics Pensioners of the United Church of Canada will receive a 20 percent increase in their pensions, starting the first of next year, the General Council of the church agreed here yesterday. The increase will boost the ordinary pensions payments from $1,200 to $1,460 per year, Rev.

Harry Tuttle, secretary of the Pension Fund, told the church commissioners in session here. Adding this latest increase, this means that United Church pensions have been increased by 80 percent since 1951. They are paid to retired ministers, widows and dependent children. Last year the church paid pensions to 1,928 recipients who received a total payment of $1,430,000. Dr.

In the last two years, taking into account deaths and retirements, the church had a net increase of 99 ministers. During the next year the United Church ministry will receive 115 ordained men from its colleges, plus 15 ministers who have come from other churches. 45 Next Year The average loss per year is 85, which will give the committee in charge of assigning charges an increase of 45 ministers. "Provided we keep up our efforts," Dr. Young said, "the day is clearly in sight when we will have enough ministers to man every pastoral charge and other committments with ordained and fully-trained men." This was no reason for a letdown, he warned, as new communities were coming into being, and each would have to be served by a United Church minister.

Dr. Young said the United Church had a total of 2,694 pastoral charges in Canada, with a total of 6,192 preaching places. At the present time there are 2.423 ministers in the service of local congregations. not? ai 385 Elementary Statistics (second term only) Miss C. Cox Tuesdays 7.30 9.30 p.m.
