 There are people in Washington who never thought the day would come when they would see such proce6ure. It wasn't thought pos- sible that the armed services CT the State Department would ever listen to suggestions from anyone on how they handled their public relations. But that day has come to pass and while 1t shouldn't be misinteTpreted as any knuckling under Of the older departments nor as any great victory for Mir.

'elt that as Archbishop Of York he

felt that as Archbishop Of York he
would be able to continue in COM
parative freedom his work for new
religious, social, economic and politi-
cal conditions after the war. But
ne is said to have been convinced
BY the arguments Of friends and
advisers that acceptance Of the
highest Office in the Church OF Eng
land would make relatively little
difference in his position as leader
of the progressive church forces
which are putting religious peace
aims before the world.
1t is argued that since the ap-
pointment had to be endorsed by
fellow churchmen, by Prime Min
lister Churchill and by the King, the
archbishop's views will not be op-
posed in high quarters. especially
since it must be known that the new
primate Of all England intends TO
keep on battling for q new system
of postwar relations.
Expect Increase I'm Giving.
If you're fearful that your church
will suffer from lack OF funds dur
ing this war period, you can take
comfort from statements MADE py
two executives this week.
George M. Galloway, financial
secretary Of the Brooklyn IN. -
Bureau Of Charities, predicted thai
contributions for religious, chari-
table and health purposes will show
definite increases during the pres
ent war period, conforming 70 .
similar trend in 1917-l8.
This trend was outlined by George
A. Brownel. chairman OF the Sal
vation Army's civilian mobilization
drive In New York City. who said
that during the First World War
contributions to II Protestant de-
nominations increased from approx
imately $4,000, 900 in 1914 to more
than s39. 600, 900 In 1918.
Within the same period. said MI.
Brownell, gifts to private social
agencies In New York City alone
advanced from more than $4,000, 900
to more than $500, 900.
Increased giving to religious or
Plantations appears to have been
one of the phenomena Of the last
war.
According to records Of the now
defunct Institute of Social and Re
liHous Research, the total income
for foreign missions received by Is
Protestant denominations rose from
$l3,500, 900 in 1915 to $l6,5O00Oo IN
1918.
The same source reveals that per
capita gifts for benevolences IN l!
denominations increased from 2.84
in 1916 to 2.89 in 1918.
A report published In the 1918
Yearbook Of the Foreign Missions
Conference states that contributions
from the United States rose from
sl7,000,o00 in 1916 to $40, 100000 in
1918. .
The total income Of all United
States mission boards and societies
according to the same body. was
sls264 GIT In 1916. In 1918 1t had
increased to $29 ,242 SGT. These fig
ures, however, cannot be regarded
as conclusive. since the same boards
were not represented each year
They are sufnciently accurate, how
ever, to demonstrate a trend.
1t Is understood that religious or
ganizations in Great Britain are
being well supported by the public
at the present time. Chief reason
is that purchasing restrictions and
rationing have reduced the num-
Der of things people can buy. So
they give their money to worthy
causes.
