ENDOWMENT DRIVE
BYPRESBYTER|ANS
Board Adopts Plan to Aid
Fifty-Eight Colleges
Throughout Country.

comprehensive plan for increas-
ing the endowments of the fifty-eight
PRESBYTERIAN colleges of the country
by the amount of $35,O00,O0O was
adopted by the general board of edu-
cation of the Presbyterian Church in
the United States of America tthe
Northern Presbyterian ChuIch) at it's
annual meeting in New York last
week.
Henry B. F. mcfarland, who was
present as a member of the board
stated that the plan contemplated the
raising of 100000 year for five
years, of which it is proposed that
s2,00U,O00 shall be raised in the
churches generally by the general
board of education, and the other
IS. 600, 900 raised by the general board
of education and the colleges in CO.
operation from large donors.
He said that the reports coming to
the board from all over the country
showed a greatly increased desire
for education that was not divorced
from religion. as was the case In SO
many colleges of the country, and
that the demand for education that
took religion into account came from
people outside of the Presbyterian
Church and of all churches. as Well
as from members of the denomina-
tions. What is commonly called. in
letters coming to the general board
of education and to other sin1slar
church organizations, Goddess edu-
cation" is characterized by the
writer's as more dangerous than no
education at ALL and Germany is cited
as the great illustration of this fact.
Another reason given as Ahowlng
a pacesSity for education tfN does
not leave God and religion outside, is
the general policy of "Americaniza-
ton for the aliens now in the United
States or coming in greatly increas-
ing numbers since immigration was
resumed after the war.
still another reason given said
Mr.. Mcfarland, lis the absolute ne
Christian ministers in order to give
Christian leadership and Christian
teaching in city and country~No town
wishes to be without church and
there can be no church without a
minister. Yet the absurdly low, and,
indeed. disgraceful. rate of pay of the
ministers. and other conditions are
decreasing the number of candidates
for the ministry"
The statement was made at this
meeting of the general board of edu--
cation that in ten years there had
been no net addition to the min
istry of the Presbyterian Church from
the Presbyterian denomination itself.
and that if it had not been for the
acquisition of between four and five
hundred ministers from other de-
nominations, it would have been i'm
possible to equip the Presbyterian
churches even as imperfectly as was
done. AS it is. hundreds of churches
are without ministers.
