CHRISTIAN COMMUNISM IN

The

CHINA,

www.com

PEKING, Feb. 4. establishment of Christian Communes throughout China is the most startling proposal made to the Methodist Programme of Study Com- ference now in session in Peking.

The scheme provides that the Church in the various localities under-. take and organize in groups of two or three hundred the poorest people in the community for co-operative sell- support. The Church shall capitalize them only to the extent of providing land for them to cultivate and of furnishing expert vocational guidance to every member of the group.

The use of money will be complete- ly abandoned within each Commune, and the Commune will not raise or manufacture anything to sell. It will raise collectively everything the whole group, expects to eat, and manufacture collectively all the clothing the mem bers expect to wear, and build collec tively all the houses necessary for their shelter. If anything is produced which no one within the Commune needs, it is to given away to a needy person in the surrounding community.
