distinction of being the first architect
ever sent out by the Foreign Mission
Board, and his appointment indicates
the vast extent of the Southern Bap-
fist work in that country. More than
half of the total number of mission
aries in the employ Of this board are
located in China, where the results of
their labors are very gratifying to the
officers Of the Board.
Large interest centers, also, in the
launching of an intensive missionary
work in Palestine, to which country
there go Rev. and Mrs Fred Bunyan
Pearson of Moulton, Ala, and Rev. and
Mrs. ]. Wash Watts, of Laurens, S. G.
Some native missionaries are already
at work in Palestine, and the outlook
there is considered very encouraging,
despite the present complicated politi.
cal and racial controversies.
Campaign Brings Enlargement
In addition to the sending out of $50
new workers to foreign fields the IS
Million Campaign has made it possible
to increase the number Of native
workers from I'll to 1172, to practical
ly double the missionary equipment in
the older fields of China, Japan, AT
RIGA, Italy, Brazil, Argentine, Chile,
Uruguay and Mexico, and to enter the
new fields of Spain, Jugo-Slavia, Hun
gary, Roumania, Southern Russia, Pal
ostine and Siberia. Southern Baptists
now have a practically unhroI,en

And the results on the field have
kept pace with the larger investment
in the work and number of workers.
Since the outset of the Campaign the
Foreign Mission Board reports the Or
ganizatiOn of 1T new churches, Fl, 1923
baptisms, 211 new Sunday schools
with gain of 1876 pupils, native
contributions to Baptist work of ST..

ministered by missionary physicians,
Churches on the foreign fields, exclu.
sive Of the new territory in Europe
and the Near East, now number 622
with 64,251 members. There are also
971 Sunday schools with 1851 pupils,
and 694 mission schools of all grades
with 26,507 students.
Expense Rate Is Low
More than $6,250,000 net has gone
from the Campaign into foreign mis-,
sion work, and SO economically have
these funds been handled, the Board
reports, that 1924 cents out of every
dollar has actually reached the for
eign fields, only 3.74 cents out of each
dollar being required to care for the
total cost of administration. But with
these larger receipts and economical
administration the Board is unable to
meet the demands upon it, and at its
last annual meeting it was compelled
to reduce the requests Of the mission
aries on the field for appropriations
by more than $1,00000Q.

 He quoted President Underwood of the Erie lines as saying he roads cause of under maintenance, and poor earnings. The statements. he said, constituted 'indisputab1e evil dence of the depleted and patched up condition of the railroads.'

 ''No further evidence than that from the lips of railroad executives is necessary to demonstrate that the railroads at the end of 1917 were in a condition of disrepair, postponed and deferred maintenance. The story has been graphically told by them.
 '3The railroad administration adopt ed the only two possible methods for First, imm ediateiy using more eff ciently available forces and facilities. and later increasing them. "As a step in the direction,the Raf- road Administration called on the representatives of organized railroad employees to agree to certain modi- fications in their contracts relative to hours of labor and working rules. The railroad employees patrioticly gave
 up privileges and concessions which their organizations had obtained
 through many years of negotiation sions gained by the government could not have been obtained bY railroad arrangements under any conditions" |" Julius Kruttschnitt, chairman of the Board of the Southern Pacific
 had said that his railroad had been ''skimped to the danger point" by the failure of the government to lay suf- ffcient ties, and MT. McAdoo. taking

 While making "NO drastic changes in the engagement of railroads' as
 director general, MT. McAdc-o said, he had "called a+ once to his aid some of the ablest men in the railroad world.' Nostwithstanding in January 1918 he addressed an identical letter to heads of several of the heads of larger sys- satisfied with the efficiency of man. agement" and Hooked to officers o1

The deficit incurred during the first five months before the regional di- rectors took charge. was much greater the seven months remaining of the same year, MT. McAdoo said, and this demonstrated the conclusion he had given.
