ror safe by a" first cIoss grocers

" a0~ sdtTSTdCrOry 10 all. This resulted
IN the famous Men and Millions
Movement" OF the Disciples of Christ
which brought in what was then con.
sidered the staggering sum of &c.,
3O0,OOO for five-year program. The
members of the communion were so
pleased with this business-like method
OF conducting affairs that they con.
trlbuted even more generously than
had been expected. e.
The success of this enterprise revo.
lutionized the whole business Of
church ffnanciering The other great
denominations immediately adopted
the plan. The UNCONVENTIONAL associa.
tons have come to be known as "for
ward movements" and some thirty OF
them are in existence today Each one
has clarified all the information in re-.
lation to enterprise within the denomi
nation, and has reduced the business
Of collecting and spending money to a
science.
WorTd-5udget Formed
The lnterchurch World Movement is
simply plan to do INSTRUMENTATION,
ally what the forward movements
have done within the various COM
munions. 1t means that every denomi
national budget will be made in the
light of world needs instead of in the
semi-obscurity of incomplete informa
ton. 1t means that contributions to
one denomination will not be in waste.
full competition with contributions to
another, because all the felIowships
will have worked out their program
together.
The functions of the Interchurch
World Movement are threefold. First
it collects, by means of world SURVEYS
all the pertinent facts on which de.
nominational programs may be built.
Second, it sets up the practical ma,
chinery of cooperation. Third. it acts
in an advisory capacity whenever its
advice is requested.
The Movement has nothing In do
with organic church union or matters
of creed or doctrine. Each constituent
unit preserves complete autonomy. and
is bound only so far as it wishes to he
bound. Financial appeals are made
by each denomination to it's own con.
stituency. Any surplus in undesignat
ed funds, over and above the actual
cost of administration, will be prorat.
ed among the denominations engaged
in given financial undertaking
An Illustration of one thing the
Movement can do is to be found in a
western community of 1000 persons
in which thirteen denominations have
been supporting separate churches
with missionary funds, while an ada.
cent territory of $4,000 persons has
only three churches. BY seeing that an
missionary boards are supplied with
information in such cases, the Move
ment will make possible wiser dis!
tribution Of funds.
It's first goals are to reduce unneces.
sary duplication and overlapping to
minimum and to bring about an In.
telligent division Of labor in unoccu
pied fields.

TO KEEP INADMISSIBLES AT
HOME

immigration will be one OF the big
questions 10 confront the new Repuoli-
can congress. This problem has sew
sral phases OF great Importance. includ-
ing methods Of limitation and efforts
to place a large proportion OF immi-
grants on farms. One associated mat
ter which up to the present has not
+. been taken up systematically. is that Of
preventing disqualified aliens from SAIL
ing for the United States.
In order TO prevent as many of such
"tragedies" as possible. Immigration
/ commissioner Caminettt is now on his
way to Europe to study conditions at
I the principal emigration centers. There
are always some immigrants who are
not admissible to the United States I'M
tder our laws, but who do not discover
: the fast until they arrive at Ellis Island.
The plight OF such people is deplora-
sbfe. They have broken up their homes
! N the old world and spent large pro-
portion Of their worldly wealth in reach
ing the shores OF the promised land"
sonly to find that they are barred. Most
.of this, II is believed. is preventable.
and Mr., Cam!netti will make recommen-
a<tions TO be incorporated in tho next
I'm. Not only will much needless hard
ship be prevented but the task OF the
officials will thus be SIM
pllfied.

to find out all the facts about the vari-
Gus candidates unless they discuss them
freely, is not clear. It has never been
considered crime to talk Of politician
candidates or anyone else for that mat
ter. provided the talk was not del!ber-
ately untruthful or slanderous Even
If it were desirable, it might be perth
nent TO ask Mrs. Gait how she expects
thirty millions Of women to fight all
the opposition candidates as well as one
another. without talking.
The convention methods OF making
nomina lions has often been attacked and
has been overthrown in several place )
in favor Of the primary system. The
primary, however, has been found to de-
feat It's own object. as the expense OF
making a primary campaign bars men of
small or moderate means from particl-
patton. 4 little more thorough study
Of political matters would save Mrs.
Gait from advocating methods already
dscredited and from remarks that
sound more like quotations from one Of
the Elsie" books than suggestions to
everyday human beings.

THE ONLY INCREASE

In the readjustment OF labor condi-
tions. it must be kept steadily in mind
that the actual wages Of workingmen
do NOT Increase except with increased
production. no matter how many dollars
q day they may receive.
When q workman receives high wages
for small production, he must exchange
his dollars at the store for small
amount OF goods. II he receives high
wages for large production. he can ex-
change his dollars at the store for large
amounts OF goods.
This is always true because when tho
manufacturer has only small output
to sell. and high labor costs. he must
sell each article for high price. If he
has more articles he can lower the price.
although still paying his woTkmen the
Same daily wage.
With this condition general the wages
Of every workman who increases his
production actually increase IN terms
Of the necessities and comforts OF life.
Any other kind Of an increase IS art!ti-
cial and useless.

HAZING UPROAR AT AN
NAPOIIS

!, Judging By the fuss made over It.
hazing must be the principal industry
Of Annapolis, Maryland. For many
" years. there have been recurrent SQUAD
blss over hazing in the United States
naval academy there. Now ono OF the
worst OF these Is in progress simultane-
ously with a similar fight in st. John
college. also located in Annapolis
In both cases. the upper classmen are
/, In favor OF hazing, while the authorities
arc determined 10 eliminate the prac-
Z t!ce. Secretary Daniels has threatened
f, 10 expel the entire student body at the
/ naval academy, numbering 200, II nee
esary to stop hazing. He places the Gus
tom ION a par with dueling and bar
: barrie things" He also takes the posi-
tion that IL q young man goes to Anna
/, polls and cannot obey orders he IS not
i fit TO give orders to other people. and
: that Annapolis cadets cost the nation
! too much to pay them to disooey rules
/. The secretary had one man indicted and
, put in the penitentiary for brutal haz-
, ing at the University Of North Carolina
q and says he thinks a few examples or
. the same kind would be good for Anna
polls.
At st. Johns college. which is one OF
I the oldest institutions OF learning in the
: United States. the students have
.struck" in a body rather than rescind
!. The rules established By upper class
. men for freshmen. These rules re-
. CURED the freshmen to observe certain
: forms, keep off certain walks and con-
IN In
: penalty OF being beaten with bed Stats.
, Governor Richie, OF Maryland. tried to
> patch the matter up and was apparently
successful. but the students later got
, together, declared the board Inefficient
! and demanded an entirely new govern
? ing body. Governor Richie does not
: take the extreme view Of Mr.. Daniels
but insists upon the elimination OF
: .'cruel and humiliating'' practices.
The position Of the students Is that
haziny serves TO reduce tho "swclled
head" Of the new man and to give him
- the proper attitude toward his fellows
and the world ut large. They assert
that only the "mollycoddlcS ever
"spueal" and that such men arc better
= out Of tho naval service than in II. The
ha1ed man Is always Inundated and as
most OF the young mon who so TO Anna
polls ara not accustomed to humiliation,
some OF them take it hard. HazinS thar
.,4nfIicts permanent injury on tho student
should be absolutely barred and neither
should humiliation be carried TO such
lengths as to break mans spirit. Life
hazes us all more or less and it Is con-
ceivablc that little preliminary prac-
tice at school, II not carried TO extremes,
has q practical value.
