ACKNOWLEDGEMENT STARTS.
J. p. Morgan Forwarding General Can,
paion Amonu Mon.

New York. Sept 1s.-The men and
religion forward movement. which has
the support of J. p. Morgan, will send
out it's battalion of thirty trained men
and formally open nation wide CAM
and boys. this afternoon there
was meeting of 500 clergymen
ana laymen to- plan for the New
York campaign. which will fil
eight days in the middle of next month
and this evening James G. Cannon Will
give dinner to the thirty religious
workers at the Metropolitan Club.
On Friday the men who will take the
active part in the propaganda will be
in Chicago Then they will go to a
country place near Minneapolis for a
weeks conference with the Originators
of the movement and on Oct will be-
gin the. public preaching Of the lay
mems religious campaign in Mime
apolis.
Every large city in the United States
and Canada will be visited in the CAM
paign, which will last until May I.
A purpose OF this movement Is to
bring the church to the working man.
The idea germinated while Fred B.
Smith, Y. NJ. c. "A. worker, was look
ing out for soldiers in the Spanish war.
He impressed his ideas upon Harry Ar
mold, an insurance man of st. Louis.
who met the international Y. NJ. G. a,
delegates in New York two years ago
and put before them his plea for wide
laymen's religious movement.
In 1910 Mr.. Smith called meeting Of
representatives of nearly all the prot
estant religious brotherhoods. but be-
fore they met Arnold had developed tu-
berculosis and was in q sanatorium in
the Adirondacks. He is better now and
will probably he able to participate in
this winters work.
"rhis will be the most expensive re-
ligious movement of modern times,
said Henry Reed, representing the local
committee. For more than year
preparations have been made under the
general direction of the committee OF
ninety seven, representing foremost fl
nanciers. merchants. manufacturers.
and men Of affairs in the United States.
They are going to put thru this relig-
ious campaign with the same energy
and thoroughness with which they
have put thru great undertakings in
the business world. The movement is
thoroughly undenominational."
The actual work OF the thirty men
who take the active part. Mr.. Reed ex-
planned. will divide itself into work
with boys. social service. bible study.
and evangelism.
The trained workers will divide into
groups for the smaller cities and will
unite for the larger towns, such as
New York, Chicago. Boston, and 9TH
ers They will work In unison to show
men that the principles of christianity
are applicable to every day life and
modern business affairs.

holes" that have troubled other avi-
ators.
At 6:07 he was reported passing over
