SAY GIFTS CANNOT ATONE
CongregationaIists Score acceptance
of "T'ainted" Money.

Rinehanton n Y, May 1.-THE committee
on applied Christianity presented its report %
day at the seventy-second annual meeting Of
the New-York State Association Of COngrega-
tlonal Churches One of the most interesting
parts Of the report is devoted to the discussion
of The Church and Wealth" In view of the
recent agitation over the acceptance Of money
from John D Rockefeller by the American
Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions,
what the committee had to say on this matter
is of especial interest. This part of the report
is here given:
Men are to-day profoundly stirred by the col
ossal aggregations of wealth. the methods Of
crushing cut all industrial opposition, and the
inevitable questions as TO now and where Ie-
sulting fortunes shall be distributed. For the
Church to withdraw 10 her own qutetness and
busy herself solely with the question OF saving
a here and there is moral blindness and
loss of the supreme opportunity Of leadership
Least of all dare we consider the Church a mere
distributing agency of mems conscience money
We believe the supreme question before the
Church to-day is to teach brotherhood as the
only true basis Of business. With natural wealth
open to the use OF an men we believe industrial
combination in the interest of economy would
develop naturally and with injury TO none. We
believe the Church should guard against all sucn
alliances with institutions or Individuals OF great
wealth as give color to the charge that the
Church is under the domination Of the rich or
that her ministry is silenced regarding business
methods oppressive ard -menacing TO personal in
depcndence 1t is our conviction that no gifts
for the wrong done against society by financial
Industrial methods which ignore the natural
law that only the creators of wealth ere worthy

Found I!

why is there no magazine in English that
publishes the great foreign stories we hear
about so often:" There is no doubt about
the demand for such a periodical. The best
English and American fiction is divided among
so many magazines that there's not enough
to go around-the magazine that publishes six
really great stories in a year does not exist.
But magazine that draws on the whole Of
the worlds literature could easily give its
readers dozen great stories each month, and
still not exhaust the rich treasures that are
hidden from the average English-speaking
reader-stories filed with the life and brill
fancy of France with the psychological insight
of Germany; with the realism of Russia; with
the pathos and aspiration of the North; and
with the romance and glamour of Italy and
Spain.
Would not such magazine appeal to you?
