In2000Counties This Month The Forces of the Church of Christ Will Gather To Face the Facts IN 2000 counties in the United States the pastors and laymen of 30 great denominations will meet in conference this month. It is the kind of conference that generals hold before a critical engagement; that business men hold before entering a new market. A conference of judgment, not emotion; a clear-eyed facing of the facts. A Survey that Business Men Must Admire For more than a year hundreds of workers have been quietly engaged in making a scientific survey of the mission fields, and of America county by county. The facts developed are startling. No such picture of America's religious situation has ever before been drawn. On the basis of these surveys thirty Protestant de nominations are uniting in a Nation Wide Cooperative Campaign Each of the thirty denominations has its own "For ward Movement" organized and officered. The Interchurch World Movement is the clearing house for all of these. It is the agency which the churches have created to avoid duplication, to foster cooperation and make sure that very man and dollar render the utmost service possible. The month of April will be devoted to 'making the facts of the survey known to America; in the week of April 25th -May 2nd, will come a united simultaneous financial campaign. Whether You Are Inside the Church or Out To every man and every woman who loves his country, these 2000 county conferences are vitally important. For the facts developed by this great survey show Vividly what forces are at work in America and what kind of a country this country is to be. See that the pastor of your church appoints delegates. Any pastor can tell you th con ference place and date.
