Room sos, IS 8 Dearborn St, Chicago,
TelephOue, Majestic sssL

The Ri. Rev. Chas. P. Anderson, D.
D., Espieopal Bishop of Chicago, ex-
pressed his hearty sympathy with the
plans and purposes Of the Interehureh
World Movement, the thirty denomina-
tons Of which will inaugurste On April
Is an eight-day campaign to raise
t366,777,572 for the world needs of
those denominations. Because Of the
fact that the Episcopal Church was in
the midst Of a Nation Wide Campaign
Of its own when the Interchurch Move
ment was launched, this denomination
has not become part Of the Move
msnt Great satisfaction was expressed
by leaders OF the Interehureh, however,
ever the fact that the Episcopal Church
has taken occasion to express its full
sympathy with the aims the Tnterchurch
has in view.
a'The success ofone, is the success
Of -an,' said Bishop Anderson, at the
Church Club. Nothing win stimu-
late the Episcopal Church more than
10 see that other denominations are be-
ing stimulated; and feel that the
stimulating influences Of the Inter
church World Movement win have a
highly beneficial effect in the ranks Of
al ehristianizing and eivilizing agen-
eies. Because Of this, am very glad
to give the Movement my full support
and to wish It every success. i have
no doubt that the Episcopal Church
would also have been enlisted In the
Movement but for the fact that our
own campaign was wen under way
when il was organized"
Bishop Anderson endorsement of
the Interchureh resulted from his at
tention having been called to the ae-
ton Of the Governing Council of the
Episcopal Church made public IN New
York by the Rt. Rev. Thomas J. GsiIOr,
Presiding Bishop Of the Protestant
Episcopal Church in the United States
Of America, expressing hearty syn
pstAy with the purposes Of the Inter
church Movement. The text Of Bishop
GailOr's statement follows:
fsThe Presiding Bishop and Council
have heard with interest Of the pro
greas Of the Interehurch World Move
ment and hope that the Nation Wide
Campaign Committee Of this Church
and the authorities Of the various
dioeeses win furnish to the survey con
teuplated by the Interehureh World
Movement, such information concerning
the work Of this Church as may be de-
sired. Inasmneh, however, as our own
Eation-WIde Campaign Is sin in pro
grsss the Presiding Bishop and ooun-
eli feel that they cannot take any
ofieiaI part or assume any financial re-
sp0nsibilitys in the Mterehurch Word
1rovement; while at the sane time
they sssure the leaders Of that Move
ment Of their hearty sympathy with
the purposes they have in view, and
Of their prayers that God win bless
ne Movement to the extension Of BIS
Kingdom ana the higher welfare Of
mankind
