CHURCH TRIES PARABLE IDEA
Offering Plate Loans
Help Lift the Mortgage
Haddon Heights, N. J. (U.R) The congregation of Bethany Pres
byterian church was ordered to "help themselves" to $1, $5, and
$10 bills from the offering plate in a plan to pay off the church
mortgage.
Borrowing the idea from other communities which have used
It, the pastor, the Rev. Dr. Jarvis
6. Morris, told 90 people who
"helped themselves" to put the
money to work for five months
and "then we shall see what we
shall see."
The idea stems from the New
Testament "Parable of the Tal
ents," Dr. Morris suggested that
adults take $10, teen-agers $5,
and children $1. That was sev
eral months ago.
Already, however, the $1,000
borrowed from a bank to make
the. "talents" payments is paying
dividends toward the mortgage
payment of $5,000. Many par
ishioners have doubled the mon
ey, and some have done much
better than that.
' Two officers of the church,
who took $10 each, went into
housepainting with their money
after working hours. So far
they have netted $50 and have
$200 job to finish.
Dr. Morris himself took $20,
which he is using to raise veg
etables in the parish garden, and
honey.
He's getting the honey from a
swarm of bees captured in a
neighborhood field. The pas
tor's wife and daughter, too, are
taking part in the talents fund.
Mrs. Morris if teaching an art
class and their daughter, Mary,
U selling souvenirs bought on a
tour of Europe this summer.
One of the best records so far
has been turned in by a nine-year-old
boy. The lad has multi
plied his $1 to $28 selling cup
cakes made by his mother every
Saturday afternoon.
A strawberry festival and
street fair netted another $100
and a group of men Is planning
to raise $1,000 giving a turkey
dinner at the church each month.
One woman Is selling brooms
in her spare time; another is ba
by sitting, and still another is
washing bedspreads and blan
kets for neighbors at a tidy prof
It for the church.
With some $200 of the original
fund yet unused, the church Is
nearing its goal of an expansion
program, which had been up
because of the mortgage. The
members agree it's been lots of
fun.

Acheson Comments
On Soviet-Tito Tilt
Washington, Aug. 25 W)
Secretary of State Acheson de
clared today that communists
the world over would have dif
ficulty reconciling Russia's vio
lent diplomatic attacks on Mar
shal Tito of Yugoslavia with the
Soviet peace offensive.
Acheson told a news confer
ence that of course the commun
ists will try to pass off the rat
tling of the Soviet as the cooing
of a dove. But the dove seems
to have a somewhat sore throat,
he said.
Acheson did not spell out
what he meant in using the term
Soviet peace offensive. For
many months, however, Moscow
led communist parties have held
rallies and built their propa
ganda lines on the argument that
western "imperialists" and
"warmongers" want to start a
third World War while the So
viets, heading the forces of
peace, are blocking them.
The cost of the Alaska high
way was $138,000,000.
Order Study of
Surplus Arms
Washington, Aug. 25 W) A
quick study to see what surplus
arms this country can spare for
western Europe was ordered to
day. .
The order, from the senate
foreign relations and armed
services committees, was
prompted by a proposal from
Senator Russel (D., Ga.) to limit
to $450,000,000 the amount of
surplus arms to be sent to Eu
ropean members of the Atlantic
alliance.
Russell's amendment to Presi
dent Truman's arms aid pro
gram came up at a closed ses
sion of the combined commit
tees. They are preparing the
military assistance bill for sen
ate consideration.
Chairman Tydings (D., Md.)
of the armed services committee
told reporters after the session
that a subcommittee was ap
pointed to discuss arms values
with officials of the defense de
partment. He said the combin
ed cormrlittees want definitions
of surplus, reserve and other
terms used in this field.
The subcommittee is compos
ed of Senators Tydings, Russell,
Saltonstall (R., Mass.) and
Knowland (R., Calif.). Tydings
said it hopes to confer with de
fense officials today and to be
ready to report to the full com
mittee tomorrow morning.
The president's program, in
addition to authorizing the
spending of $1,160,990,000 cash
on arms for European members
of the 'Atlantic pact, provides
that surplus arms which origin
ally cost $450,000,000 may be
sent to the same countries. Ap
proximately $77,000,000 of the
proposed cash outley is ear
marked to repair and ship these
surplus arms.
