When clouds lase Imply in the

Nod me a greeting as ! pass:

My soul rejoices without cease,
And stirs with gratitude and praise

today. He is entirely occupied with
his work of trying to get a dry

planned.
Eamonn de Valera, president OF

morrow. He plans to sit on the

Senator Glass, of Virginia, de-
MED a report that the subcommit-

put a wet plank in the Democratic

Another report that Secretary of

for inclusion of a wet plank in the

Private secretary-"How Bob In
gersoll would laugh"
There is a note OF real pathos in
the passing of the 1nterchurch
movement 1t should never have
failed. Which raises the question:
Should IL ever have been
started?"
Your correspondent. who was then
in England, knows nothing OF the
details of the inception OF the move
ment except what came by cable to
the London newspapers. 1t was such
staggeringly. wonderful project
the raising OF s3Ss. 900. 900. primarily
to carry the truths of Christianity
to more than 1000, 900 900 nom
Christian people. two-thirds of the
population OF the earth. Concretely
put. the precise purpose OF the
movement was to present a unified
program of Christian service and to
unite the Evangelical churches OF
North America in the performance
of their common tasks" l suppose
an easier way OF saying it would
be the card-indexing of church
work.
Where Is DR.. John r. Mott, for
mer wartime Young Mems Chris
tian Association director and the
original chairman Of the interchurch
executive committeeT' was asked.
He has resigned. and is in Eu-
rope" was the reply.
And DR.. James 1. Vance, of Nash
Vile, Tenn, who is said to have
germed the big. idea?'
He. too, is in Europe" was the
answer.
DR.. S. Earl Taylor. general Sec
retary. was reported to be busy,
"frightfully busy" Everybody was
rushing about. Despair was writ
ten on the faces OF many who had
a heart concern in the vast under
taking.
Over in the green hut building
still greater confusion prevailed. A
sale of ONCE furniture was on
regiments OF desks, chairs and type
writing machines. They are real
bargains.
Eighteen hundred minor execu-
tives and clerks lose their billets.
Being a selected lot. they will not
have serious difficulty making new
connections.
In some of the storerooms, piled
ceiling high, are hundreds and hun
dreds of boxes filled with tons of
undistributed literature. Most of
IL is so much wasted printers ink.
for the pamphlets chiefly relate to
the drive for funds" which is
finished.
Why all this? A friend deep in
the know explained:
I'VE simply did not raise the
money. All we got was pledges for
S156.000.o00. Get it right, I said
pledges for money. Briefly. our
success hinged upon expected fnan-
cial support from friendly citizens
which was our tactful way of desig-
mating non-church- going folks and
