Zion people most emphatically should
leave all of their investments in
these Institutions, and help, as rapidly as
possible, to add at least $4,000 more in
investments to the working capital. We
pay 900 interest on all investments.
These Institutions should be extended
and others organized, so that, as rapidly
as possible there will be employment in
Zion Institutions and Industries for every
loyal Zion man and woman.
It is remarkable record that, during
all the hard times through which this
country has been passing, we have not laid
off any employees nor made any cuts in
wages. =
Faithful cooperation on the part Of all
Zion will enable us to maintain these In
situations, extend them, and organize
others.
Let all Zion heed this call, keep all their
money at work in one way and another
for the establishment of Zion City, and VIC
tory, by the help and grace of God, is sure.
