another fact Is beginning to loom up
that there Is a great movement In

of Moscow, reaching to the Vru!
mountains, where hundreds of thous-
unds who have left the Greek church
have formed themselves Into congre
gations called . Prcshyterlanskl, be-

mid the fact that more than one
half of the Presbyterian churches
had a membership of less than 100
npiece made necessary a pension sys
tem sustained by tho larger and rich
er churches. The Presbyterian church
was a pioneer In such a pension sys
tem, but It was inadequate.
The relief department of ths
board needed $t,fOO.OU0 a year for
income for retired ministers, widows
ind orphans of ministers, and for
support of tho three Prcsbytorhin
homes and the tuberculosis sanatar
lum. Tho board needed another $500,-,
000 a year for the church's sharo
of annuities In the sustcntatlon de- j
purtinent, which is one-fifth sup-;
ported by the previous savings of the1
annuitants. 1
Dr. Master pleaded for an endow-!
mcnt fund sufficient to fiwz Cur the
growlnir '.?:r.tuuiH of pensioners, and
isked the general assembly to set up
a new laymen's movement to raise
in additional endowment of $15.-
