Extension Of private credits to Eu-

turers appears to be the most widely
used method of overcoming the ad-

of handling the situation, as explained
by Joseph McElroy, export manager for
Pass & Seymour, at special luncheon
of the American Manufacturers En-
port Association yesterday, five Of them
contained elements of credit extension.
According to Mr.. McElroy, many houses
are selling to England upon six

GOVERNMENT IS AFTER
CHURCH SURVEY MAPS
Graphs Will Be First Com
prehensive Community
Survey Ever Made

Convinced that the surveys of the
fnterchurch World Movement In rural
America are of such accuracy as TO
constitute a definite scientific contri-
button TO present day information on
the country church. the United States
government. through Charles Josiah
Galpin of the office of farm manage
ment of the department of Agriculture,
has contracted 70 buy Il o of the
survey map of each OF the 2.96S coun-
ties to be surveyed by the town and
country division of the Interchurch
Movement.
This county map is a concrete ex-
preston in %graphics of the first thor
ough-goIng and wholly comprehensive
church and community survey ever at
tempted in this country.
Each graph, when completed. shows
the location of every church. the resi-
dence OF the ministers, the circuits on
which they trayel in reaching their
charges. the parish lines of every
church and the community boundaries.
By the graph. areas of denominatiOnal
competition are discovered rs well as
the areas which are untouched by any
religious ministration.
The survey TO late has revealed the
ldtl ina III uNtEuSt tuulllIN Nlluitlt
is I'm no sense reaching the community
and is ministerlng ouly to a percentage
Of a certain creed or sect, and also
that there are very few buildings in
which provision has been made for the
social and recreational needs of the
young people. The survey has dlsclos-
ed that more than one-half of the rural
pastors are receiving less than u liv-
Ing wage.
The plan of presenting church condi-
lions on a county map began with the
establishment of the country life com
mission by President Roosevelt. 1t
was developed by Clifford Pinchot and
the Rev. c. o. GIL, a Congregational
clergyman Of New England, who in
tenslfied the Idea OF obtaining specific
information on the churches in n com
munity. DIR. Warren II. Wilson, known
as the lean of specialists on the rural
church in America, and the Rev. III.
N. Morse. both of the rural life work
department of the Presbyterian board
Of home missions, together with DIR.
Edmund de S. Drummer, head of the
town and country survey department
Of the Interchurch World Movement,
brought the graphs to their present
perfection In presentation of communl-
ty matters. This graph is a vivid pic
ture, ineligible on first glance to the
lay mind, Of how the church is or is
o reaching n community.
The maps ordered by Mr.. Galpin are
made in the field by an Interchurch
%vey checked up in the national
office and traced by expert craftsmen.
