SECRET OF FINANCES
IN CHURCH DRIVE

How the daily price of a carfare
and a newspaper can be made to pay
an expense account of a third OF a
billion dollars is told by Dr. W. II.
fHolIingshead, the well known statistl-
clan, who is giving his services TO
the financial campaign of the inter-
church World Movement.
| The third of a billion dollars sounds
Ia colossal sum of money. Yet this
is the sum that the thirty denomina-
tions cooperating in h United ST.
multaneous Campaign of the Inter
Church World Movement confidently
expect to raise this year through an
extensive campaign extending from
April 25 to May 2. To be precise,
the sum required TO enable those thirty
denominations to discharge their duty
in the Christian scheme of things IS
SS36,777,572.
This immense sum is made to look
puny and insignificant by the time Or.
Hollingshead has done with 1t. TIE
Jews of old gave a 1.-THE, or q tenth,
OF all their Increase to the Temple.
1t was the law hat they should do
80, n among the Pharisees particul-
arly the law was vigorously enforced.
Theoretically that law. like many
other Jewish Institutions, was taken
over by Christianity. DIR. Holdings
head speculates as to q few OF tho
results of a rigorous application OF
the principle of tithing in these days.
He starts with the total income of
all Protestant churches in America
for all purposes in the year 1918. That
was s~249,77S,S35. There are Il good
many wealthy church people. but
there are a good many poor ones
also. Let us, therefore. begin with u
poor one, say, a hod-carrier. n nod
carriers wage is 1927 per day. The
1.-THE of this wage is 32 cents and
seven mills. Now if m Protestant
church member of every eleven
In the United states gave 80 cents and
Z mills a day, the tenth part of the
h~od-carrier's wage, to the church, IL
would pay the whole church budget
for 1918 and leave nearly $22.0OO,O0o
over.
Even a tenth of the lowest wage re-
corded in the United States govern
ment statistics would do the trick,
with q comfortable margin TO spare.
An Alabama waitress gets, without
tips. ST cents a day. A tenth OF even
that small wage would v to be con-
tributed by only half the Protestant
church membership of the country 10
pay all the expenses of 1918 n leave
more than $40, 900 900 as balance in
hand. If the whole church member
ship-every o woman and child
cave this 1.-THE, 81 cents. a fraction
more than a nicl5le a day, the price
of a carfare, the church expenses for
1918 would be paid and q balance
left over of S270. 900 900.
OF curse every member will not
contribute his carfarc and news
paper: but then on the other hand
there will be members and friendly
citizens who are not church members
that will contribute on the price scale
of automobiles n o~cean-going
yachts. But the carfare and news
paper Illustration shows what an in
significant sum it is that the churches
are asking for when reduced to its
lowest terms.
