MONEY ROLLED IN
 TO EPISCOPALS
Minister Didn't Like the Pennies and Told It
 to Audience

Atlantic City, N. J., Oct 12-- (UP)-Missionary coffers of the Protestant Episcopal church were richer today after. an impromptu plea by the Rev Cornelius Polhe- mus Trowbridge, rector of Grace ch.-ch, Salem, Mass, caused dele gates to the general convention to shower down $10, $5 and $1 bills on the altar. Presiding Bishop James De Wolf was about to intro duce Lewis B. Franklin, vice-presi- dent and treasurer of the national council, when the Rev Trowbridge stepped to the rostrum.
 ''I am not MT Franklin" he arl- nounced, "but I am a minister of Christ. I have the permission of the bishop of New Jersey to make a statement. I feel as no doubt many of you do that the offering at the opening service yesterday was entirely inadequate. With q congregation of 25,000 the offering amounted to only a few pennies a person. I want to ask if you don't wish to assist in swelling the fund. How many of you have got $10 and are willing to come here to the al- tar and offer it?"-
 A few came forward with $10 bills. s'If you haven't $10, how many of you have $5?' the cleric asked. The organist struck up "On- ward, Christian Soldiers" and some 5000 delegates rose. Singing as they moved down the aisles, they rained bills on the altar while at tendants shoveled the money into bags.
