The evangelical fcroup of Protestant churches joined . in the Interchurch World Movement have made the welfare of women and children "one of "the first of their objectives. Another objective is the educating of the backward races to 'develop, their resources and improve their standards of liv. ing so that the street hawking of babies will be unthinkable.
