GARDEN OF EDEN
WANTS NURSES
American Church Crusaders Are
Hampered by Lack of
Medical Skill.
CALL FROM "CRADLE OF RACE"
Arabs Show Willingness to Accept
What Formerly They Fought
Mesopotamia Is Completely
Changed by World War;

New York.+Wanted: Doctors and
nurses for the Garden of Eden.
The call comes from the cradle OF
the race" itself, the land watered by
the Tigris and the Euphrates-MesO
potamia. And the need stands be
tween American crusaders and the an
swer to their prayers for 80 years.
For decades the Garden of Eden and
all the vast eXpanse of desert, Steppe
and fertile coast land that is Arabia
have famed with the fanaticism OF
pagan and of MoSlem tribes. For %
years the mission workers among
these Arabs, notably the ArabiSh mis-
sion of the Reformed Church Of Amer
lea, have prayed for means to pene-
trate this barrier and reach these wild
tribesmen. And they have prayed foi
change in the spirit of the people.
Prayers Are Answered.
To both prayers have come answers.
An economic, social and religious
study of the country now being con
Quoted by the Interchurch World
Movement as a means to making prac-
ticable a closer cooperation of Ameri-
can Evangelical churches in their COM
mon tasks, shows that AIesopOtamia
has been completely changed by the
world war and that all Arabia has
been affected. The survey shows, too,
that medical work is the best and in
many cases the only possible method
by which the initial contact may be
established between the pagans and
Mosiens, on one side, and the cru
saders of the cross, on the other.
And now, when the Arabs show Z
| willingness to accept what formerly
they fought-when unparalleled OPP
| portunities for service are offered the
crusaders-they are helpless for lack
! of doctors and nurses.
The finest hospital of the Reformed
church mission is standing idle, re-
! ports the Interchurch World Move
| ment survey.
And the survey reveals more than
the need of medical men and women.
There is a shortage of workers, both
| fOreignIand native.
Large UNEMPLOYED Territory.
Arabia, the survey shows, contains
the largest uneSplored territory in
Asia-possibIy in the world. 1t has a
! total area of 1,23O.276 square miles
! and it lies in the southeastern part of
the great peninsula. The crusaders of
the cross have been limited to the east
ern coast and the vicinity of Eden.
Hejaz, the Moslem 'hOly land
where lie Mecca and Medina, has no
missionaries. Hadramaut, with popu-
Iation of 5OO,OOO, is untouched There
is not single mission station far in
| land.
At the hour of opportunity, created
by the world war, the call comes from
the crusaders. through the Interchurch
World Movement survey; first for more
doctors and nurses for the Garden of
Eden and the Arabian interior; and
| then for more workers.
On the basis of what the survey has
revealed, the Ihterchurch World Move
ment is shaping program for the CO.
operative effort of. the Protestant
churches in America to win the nomad
] tribes of Arabia, and the present
dwellers in the garden, to the ideals
of Christianity.
