Show Necessity for Clinics and
Homes for Aged and lnflrm.

A large portion OF the funds to be
raised In the United Simultaneous
Campaign OF the Protestant denomina-
tions associated with the Interchurch
World Movement will be used for
American Ministerial support and re-
lief. II Is greatly needed. according
10 leaders Of the Interchurch Move
ment, who early in April are to hold
the, conference in this county.
As result Of the campaign now
being made by the Interchurch World
Movement the combined Protestant
churches Of America will provide many
more hospitals, clinics and homes for
the aged and infirm. An interesting
feature Of these Protestant hospitals
will be free treatment for ministers,
as recent surveys made by the Inter
church organization have made the
need for special dispensations very
obvious.
The following startling facts were

the Reformed Church Dutch, $1,170;
for the Methodist Episcopal North,

the Baptists (Northern), $3.50.
With government experts announc-
ing that $500 is the lowest salary
upon which a family can be decently
maintained and suggesting budgets for
none lower, ministers have discour-

tai bills are almost impossible to meet.
and yet every normal family has some
illness in its midst every year. Ac-
cordingly the Interchurch Movement,
while on its way to obtain higher aver
ages in salaries. will assist by provid-
ing free care in its Institutions.
