New York, N. .Y., Nov. 3-The Episcopal Church has increased its budget to meet what its Presiding Bishop, the Rt. Rev. Henry St. George Tucker, calls Ian opportu- nity and a need, worldwide in scope" The budget for the general work of the Church is now set at $2,6l5, 1882, for the year 1944; 32,677,132, for l945 and $2,735 ,058 for lA946. These figures represent substantial increas- eS over the Church's current bud- get for Its work in missions at home and overseas, Christian education, Christian Social Service, promotion and administration.
 Bishop Tucker, in urging advance steps in the work of the Church, pointed out that in our own coun- try there Is need for extension of work among rural dwellers, and among racial groups whose religious needs demands much more attention than has been given them in the past" In addition he points to over- seas challenges in devastated Eur ope, and China; to oening doors in Latin America; to need for relief during the war, and for rehabilita- ton after the war.

Episcopal Church
 Increases Budget
More Money for World Missionary Work Allotted;
 Relief Now, Rehabilitation After Peace Comes

young Church of China is acting upon the wise saying that Heaven helps those who help themselves. We will carry our own load, but 1t Is a task so great and the time is SO ur- gent that we need you in the Lords vineyard with us."
 The new Episcopal Church bud- get provides expressly for extension of work in China, in unoccupied areas now, throughout the land when the war Is over.
 The Rev. Dr. James Thayer Ad- dison, vice-president of the Epis- copal National Council, and In charge of overseas missionary work also sees China as a land of Chris tan opportunity. Tt is the testi- mony of every missionary" he de- clares, and of every Chinese lead- CT that never before were the peo- pie so ready for what the Church of Christ can give. The inspiring leadership of Chiang Kai-shek and his wife is symbolic of what the Chinese can do with Christianity when they embrace 1t. And that cx- ample Is reinforced by the influ- ence of the three and @ quarter mil- lion of other Chinese Christians.
 Presiding Bishop Tucker is asking his Church to accept his slogan, Through World Evangelism to World Fellowship" in it's plans for increased activity and expansion, saying that World evangelism as a means to world fellowship must be the aim of every parish, every di- ocesan and every general Church program.

SOCIAL SECURITY GIVES UNEXPECTED AID ITO THOUSANDS OF WIDOWED MOTHERS


vivors insurance became payable, a mine blast in West Virginia killed ol miners. More than half left widows with young children who were able to get survivors insur- ance benefits ranging between e32 and s55 a month.
 Millions of workers have reason to know about unemployment in- surance, another social security program, because they have re- ceived unemployment payments during weeks when they were out of work. Although more than 40,- 100000 workers are covered, only about 100000 of them are draw ing out-of-work benefits now. AIDS UNEMPLOYABLES
 Nearly three million persons, unable to earn wages and without enough to live on, receive pay ments under still another social security program-public assist ance. These payments are made by the States, with the help of Fed eral funds, to needy old and blind people, and to dependent children who have lost a parents support or care.
 More people will have a stake in social security if proposals of the Social Security Board for improv- ing the program are adopted. Briefly, the program would pro- vide:
 1. Social insurance on a broader scale, to include unemployment and disability benefits and the costs of hospital care.
 2. Extension of coverage so that all wage and salary workers, and even the self-employed, would be included. This would provide pro- lection to some 20 million persons who are now excluded.
 3. Public assistance for all needy people (not only the aged, the blind, and dependent children as at present), the payments to be made by the states and the federal government sharing the cost.

|A.E.E. IN BRITAIN REPORTS CURES
 WITH PENICILLIN
BY LEO S. DTsHER

United Press Stan Correspondent
 A U. 8. Army General Hospital, England - CUP - American Army doctors reported today that by using penicillen, the new, scanty miracle drug," they had cured gonorrhea cases unaffected by the powerful sulfa drugs and in some cases had effected apparent complete cures of the venereal disease within 12 hours.
 Penicillin, however, was available in only minute, costly quantities and its use by the Army was almost solely on an experimental basis.
 At the same time the hospital, Staffed largely by New Workers, was doing advanced research on frost bite, one of the plaques of airmen, and was performing what the flyers themselves called "big and little miracles" in surgical and skim grating work on the wounded. In this hospital there are two un- written rules for treating men shat tered in combat. One is, save the limbs. The other: Save the man.
 Tt doesn't help much" an Army specialist said, If we turn out a man patched up in his body and sick about 1t all in his mind"
 Therefore, as much attention Is given to keeping the wounded ard sick cheerful and hopeful as is given to the physical treatments.
 For soldiers convalescing, shaky, but able to remain in Europe and eventually return to Army duty, the way out of the hospital leads to rehabilitation center" where the men start gently to exercise under the eyes of Army specialists and end up in six weeks doing a rugged commando" course.
 Still others, if better treatment can be given at home, are returned to the States.
 The Army has another consider ation in treatment of soldiers. It has to have speed. Sick soldiers, generally, don't do much to win the war.
 In that direction research here is constant: Take penicillin.
 The men are not used as guinea pigs. The affects of penicillin, first noticed in a mould by a London researcher, were applied to human beings by other Englishmen. Re- search was taken up in the United States. A general hospital was the first American Army hospital in England authorized to deal with the drug.
 Penicillin now Is being produced from mould growth slowly and at great cost. Attempts to produce It synthetically are continuing. The possibilities both as to future ve- nereal cures and application of the penicillin to other ailments, are re- garded here as enormous.
 A paste is being made Of the drug and applied to burns with much success in preventing infection.
 Penicillin, 1t was said, is being used in osteomyelits - none infec- tion--cases, and works dramatic ally"
 In this hospital one case of bone infection - usually very prolonged, lasting months, even years-was be- lieved cured in two weeks.
 Another case, that of an air-gun- ner hit by flax, possibly has been cured in less than 2l days.

HORIZONS GAN HUGE SUPPLY IN
 WELFARE PLAN
BY NATALIE NICoLIN

United Press Staff Correspondent
 Salt Lake City, Nov. 3-(UP)- The welfare plan of the Latter Day Saints (Mormons) church, the only one of its kind in the world, is now aiding the national Food for vic- tory" program by having backlog of more than 1000, 100000 points of foodstuffs.
 J. Reuben Clark, Jr, first coun- selor in the first presidency of the church, gave the latest facts and figures about the welfare program at the 114th semi annual conference of the church held here recently. "On the basis of the point ra- tioning system, the church welfare program this season has canned more than 50,00O,000 cans of food- stuffs, which represents more than 1000, 100000 ration points" Clark said.
 The collecting of this huge amount of food has been done by group canning projects, operation of well fare program plants and activities in this field by ward, stake and mis- sion organizations, which are group divisions of the church, according to Clark.
 Started originally as the "Co- operative Security Corporation" to provide work for jobless members during the depression, the plan has proved to be even more popular since the start of this war. Additional figures quoted by Clark listed more than 14,500 acres of land now under cultivation by volunteer labor; 89 bishops storehouses and 65 canneries established throughout areas where LIDS members are gath cred; 755 livestock projects operat- ing under the welfare department and 314 established manufacturing and processing plants.
 Al of this has been developed since 1897, when the welfare depart- ment was formed as a non-profit organization to care for church members on @ "work for aid" basis. During these seven years, Bishop Harold B. Lee, former Salt Lake City councilman, has been in charge of the security program.
 For years the church welfare pro- gram had helped its needy with the community canning program, until last Mayl when the OPA decided to Investigate whether the plan might mean the Mormons were hoarding. After a conference between the Utah OPA and high church officials, the OPA came to look on the thrift ty "community canning" plan with understanding.
 At present the OPA handles the church canning program in two ways. The welfare warehouse. which issues food to the needy on 8 church-recommended order, is treated as a wholesale concern, The OPA requires all members obtain ing food from the warehouse to for- felt ration points on the national OPA scale.
 The canned foods that are home- grown and canned by the same family do not require ration points. This enables the members to use the community canning facilities made available to them by the LIDS welfare service without obstructing OPA regulations.
 "This shows," Clark said, "some- thing of what we can do If we set our minds to 1t. I urge you to use this food without waste and 50 far as is permitted by government reg ulations l urge you to remember our neighbors who are in need"

 Cleveland, O., Nov. 3-The Social Security Act has been in operation eight years, and 1t has been paying of since January l. 1940. Yet an astonishing proportion of Ameri- cans stin think of it only as a sys- tenn that brightens the lives of people who retire from work after they are 65.
 There is a good deal more than that to Social Security. For ex- ample, to many widows with young children, the survivors insurance payments provided to families of deceased workers have proven an unexpected and heartening wind fall.
 By the end of June, 1943-last date for which complete figures are compiled-284,063 retired workers were receiving monthly checks. But monthly benefits also were going to 304,345 widows and children. DON'T KNOW THEIR RIGHTS
 And yet a great many potential beneflciaries still don't understand uOW LLlc 6uINlNOES 1IlSuTdIlCc SyS" tenn works, or what 1t is. The files of the administering board are sprinkled with incidents such as this one:
 Upon the death of country store clerk, who lived on a small farm, the Social Security field of- flee sent the usual claim forms to the widow, who had two small children. She didn't fill them out, so man from the field office final ly called on her.
 T don't want to have anything to do with social security" she said. T don't want to take charity"
 The official pointed out that the money due her was insurance, which her husband had earned.
 The widow was delighted, then, to find she and the children would receive monthly payments of $46. She said they were almost desti- ute. The money, along with what the little farm produced, would
