CITY'S BIGGEST MEN NOT INDICATED BY SIZE OF ENVELOPE
Who Is the most Important man In Richmond? If you were called upon to answer this question from the standpoint ot actual service rendered to the com-j
munlty, would you nominate the doctor, the lawyer, the manufacturer, the commercial traveler, the engineer which as the city's most Important citizen? Narrowing the query down to specific professions, would you put the lawyer at the top of the list and the minister at the bottom? That is how they rank In the matter of earning capacity, anyhow. The following facts, made public by the American Education department ot lnterchurch world movement, show the average incomes of leading citizens! . More than More than Occupation. 53,000 $5,000 Lawyers 1 In 5 1 In ft Doctors 1 in 7V4 1 in 12 Engineers 1 In 9 Manufacturers .1 In 10 1 In 13 Architects ....l In 10 ........ Merchants 1 in 22 1 In 33 Commercial travelers 1 in 22 1 In SO Ministers 1 in 100 1 In 250 The vast majority of ministers get less than 11,000, the average wage one can't call It salary paid them throughout the United States, being 937 per year. They can't strike or organize a soviet, or do any of the other things which day laborers do to better their condition, their champions assert. Must Live However. jk Yet, as la pointed out by Dr. George Downs, field secretary for Missouri of the lnterchurch movement,
ministers In common with all other mortals are subject to the primal law of self-preservation, which under present conditions applies to them most acutely. "At no time in the history of Christianity, has there been a more pressing need for vigorous, red-blooded men of high intelligence in the churches men with the qualities of true leadership," says Doctor Downs. "But with the ministers at the bottom of the list in earning capacity the college student weighs caretully the problems of supporting a family on the income he may reasonably expect to receive. This fact accounts, I bellece, for the falling off. that has been noted in the seminaries for the training of preachers, while virtually all other institutions of higher learning are booming as never before. Field Must be Attractive. "The field must be made more attractive. Strong men, representative of all walks of life, must be encouraged to go Into the ministry wherein the generation upon which we have entered a man's work is to be done. To this end the compensation must measure up, at least to some extent, to the value of the service rendered by the man of God. It is to this vital need that we are, in part, devoting ourselves In the lnterchurch World Movement." While the most important man in towa at present is the lawyer, according, to the figures, the minister is about to give the list a shaking up. He is tired of being the under dog, workers predict. He may not reach ilie top In the heap, but he is deter?ilned not to stay on the bottom, either. And perhaps by Increasing the spread of the Christian spirit, he may reduce the number of court cases, and cut down the Importance of the lawyer a whole lot Who knows?
Oliver Relates War Tale Of Syria; Asks Aid for Nation's Starving Children Daniel O. Oliver, who was sent out to Byrla 30 years ago by the Foreign Mission Association of Great Britain refused to leave the country when the
Turks entered the war. There follow-!
ea rour years or experiences which equal any romantic and adventurous
novel written. Of these he told at an open meeting of the Friends' Missionaries societies of the city, Wednesday afternoon in the South Eighth Street Friends Church. A large audience of women from various churches of the city attended. "One million women and children face starvation in Syria and Palestine today. I have seen them die, and I know what they are suffering. One can get accustomed to seeing older people die, but one can never become used to seeing little children starve to death. "Syria was once a prosperous, well fed nation; today she Is suffering from the terrible maelstrom which overcame her." Possession of quaint humor, and the ability to tell a thrilling story in a eimply unaffected manner, made Mr. Oliver's address a supremely lntersting one.
