Now their budget is nebillion three
hundred million dollars, of which it is
proposed to use 100000 to pay ex-
penses of pastors to and from state
educational conferences. All the in
formation they furnish can be had
from the Denominational headquar-
tiers. What do they propose to do that
is not done or may be done by the va
rious denominations ? True, the church
needs genuine Pentecostal revival,
but it will not come through the Inter-
church Movement. At best the one it
proposes is ar urtra-modern one along
the lines of big business.
My personal opinion is that this
movement is not needed in our county
or stats-in fact, not needed at ALL
It is super-church, rather than inter-
church. 1t is big illustration of the
age. JOANNES.
