100 SEVELT BOY CAPTURES i itiiien . •».. A p ril W 00 l4iwrenr«- limit plungeil in '» K How much should I give to make this a better world? A C E R T A I N man in N e w York filled out hia income tax report. It showed an income so large that his tax was 53%. A n d h ia to ta l g ifts to church and c h a r• i t y f o r th e y e a r w e re $148. Think of it— thousands spent for luxuries and pleasure for himself; and $148 to leave the world r little better than he found it I Moet of us do better than that; but not so very much better. * Our average daily gift for all church causes is ■— Iran — less — less — less than than than than w e spend for daily papers a local telephone caul a third o f the day’s car fare 3 cents a day N o wonder that 801 of the ministers of America are paid less than $20 a week. N o wonaer that the church hospitals turn aw ay thousands of sic« people a year. N o wonder that China has only tme doctor for every 400,000 people. N o wander that every church board and charity society is forever meeting deficits, forever passing the hat. It isn't because w e are selfish; it isn’t because We don't want to help. It's just because no one has ever put up a great big program to us, and asked us to think ot the work o f the church in a systematic businesslike way. The Interchurch W o rld Movement represents the united program o f thirty denominations. T h e y have surveyed their whole task, no business could have done it better T h e y have budgeted their needa; no business coulo have um ore scientific budget. T h e y have un ted to prevent the possibility of waste and duplication. A t leasi a million d<i- lars w ill be saved by the fact tnat thirty indiv^uui ci.ii>- paitrna are joined in one united effort. And they come to the men or women w ho love America —- to you — thia week asking you to use them as the chaiv nel through which a certain definite part of your income can be be applied to make th<a a better w oild. • Ira a t eleven jreu rn of fine, four jrenn* •igo to fool fo r HoomrveH.
