By that time it] 1s estimated that 10,000 religious lead- | 'become thoroughly conversant with prs throughout' the country will have he aims and ans of this movement for Protestant co-operation. The ob- ject is to provide an organization through which the various Protestant churches can co-operate to their mutual advantage. As a first step the Interchurch Acvement is engaged on a number of careful surveys of religious, social and economic conditions, county by county, and city by city in the Unit- ed States and country by country abroad. The results will be collated and budgeted in terms of men and money. The participating denomina- tions then will be asked to determine by mutual agreement their individaul share of nesponsibility for world evangelization, and a united appeal will be made by the churches, each to its own constituency, for the resourc- es in men and money that are re- quired. Co-Operation Means Economy The surveys show what an enor- mous economy of time, money and human service might be achieved through a proper co-ordination of their efforts by the various churches. The state conferences are to be fol- lowed by sectional and local meet- ings through which the spiritual mes- sage of the Interchurch Movement will be carried to towns, villages and individual churches. The movement has been indorsed by more than seventy denomination- al and interdenominational boards and agencies. It also has received the official indorsement of the judicator- ies, or highest legislative bodies of at least ten denominations. By spring it is expected that the vast majority of the 25,000,000 Protes- tant church members in the country will be officially represented in the movement, GO TO CHURCH SUNDAY i 3 4 HE HEH CREATE MORTGAGE BANK A federal urban mortgage bank is created in a bill introduced in the House by Representative William H.

The coming of a storm calls for the utmost vigilance on the part of those in charge of the telephone lines, in order that service may be maintained. The cost of repairing the tele- phone lines after a storm often reaches large figures. One sleet storm did damage in the Chicago suburban division which cost $399,914 to repair. Another cost $21,999. These expenses, in addition to operating costsand to those caused by the ordinary wear and tear, make adequate rates imperative.
