INTERcHURcH MOVEMENT FAILS


The withdrawal of the Presbyterian,
and the Baptists from the Interchurcl
World Movement is the beginning OF
the end of this organization. Rev DIR
w. A. Dawson of Burlington, secretary
and superintendent of the Vermont
| Baptist State convention, who has lust
returned from the Northern Baptist
convention, says the Baptists, after a
WINGED it was impossible to reorganizc
the movement so it would again have
the confidence of all Protestant people
and therefore decided to withdraw.
They voted, however, to pay their full
share of the expense incurred by the
World movement-$2, 100000 to ap-
propriate 100000 to help form new
organization that would have the con
idence of all Protestant denomina-
tions and would study conditions at
home and abroad and cooperate in ed
ucational, missionary and evangelistic
work both at home and abroad. Mr..
Dawson holds that withdrawal from
the Interchurch World Movement be
cause of its acknowledgement does not
constitute a refusal to cooperate with
other denominations.
The failure of the Interchureh World
Movement, which Is now admitted by
its officers, had been foreshadowed for
some time and various reasons are
given in explanation. The New York
World asserts that the big business
men of the country refused to subscribe
because of the attitude of the move
ment's jndustrial relations committee
on the steel strike. This may or may
not be true, but in either case it does
not alter the fact the American peo-
pie are sick and tired of ''drives -
and in no mood to "sign on the dotted
line, - as the New York Sun puts it,
no matter how worthy the cause.
This attitude, which is perfectly nat
ural in view of the experiences of the
past few years, probably accounts for
the outcome of this extremely ambi-
tious attempt at cooperative religious
endeavor. The movement had a strong
and forceful body of men at the head
Of its organization, the good will of
thirty or more powerful religious bod
les, assistance of the most generous
sort from the newspapers throughout
the country, but all of these forces
were not sufficient to overcome the in
ert;a of the public. 1t raised vast
sum of money-at least sum that
would have been considered vast few
