COUNTY CHURCH MEMBERS
 HEAR INTER CHURCH SPEAKERS

Rev. A. F.. PurkisS, pastor of the Central Baptist church of this city, who heads one of the state teams in the Inter church World Movement, was the principal speaker at the morn ing session Of the interdenonlinatio conference in New London Wedesday. The conference was held at the First Congregational church, with morning, afternoon and evening sessions, and an attendance of over 25o from the churches all over the county.
 Words of welcome were given by ex- Mayor Ernest B. Rogers of New Lon don and Rev. Henry Hubert, pastor of the Groton Congregational church. Music was provided by William H. Bush, organist.
 In speaking of the Inter church World Movement, MT. Purkiss said in part:
 The Interchurch World Movement 1 is guided by a general committee of something less than two hundred
 members, including ministers and lay men, men and women.
 -"The interchurch movement does need money. Money is the acid test.
 The totals do seem, upon first thought, quite terrifying. Millions of dollars
 do not mean much to most of us, ex-
 cept to confuse us and give us pause. On the other hand. we often forget to i total our resources. We forget the l 20, ,000, 900 comqnunicant members of
 the churches that are cooperating in | this movement. The American people spent more money last year for per- fume alone than all the cooperating tchurches are asked to give this com l ing year. Further, when we turn from the totals to the averages, in-
 stead of being terrified we are hu-
 inflated. As matter of fact, if the
 Protestant church members of North America were to give to Almighty God the average sum needed to meet the whole responsibility of the Protestant Evangelical missionary en- terprise at home and Abroad, they would give him daily the price oi la cheap movies. or q soda without the
 war tax, or a poor elgar or a shoe shine'
