the moment it essays to establish ethical standards for the investment

of its funds.

The Church's Problems

The church in its search for ethical principles to govern the investment of its funds faces a dilemma of the first magnitude, since It stands pledged to the ethical ideals of Jesus but must live its corporate life in the present and as yet but partially

C'vtatlan economic order.

The element- in that dilemma arc

First, the church has

funds to invest. Those funds, by their very nature are trust funds, dedicated bv doners to hiffh and worthy ends. Second, the church has an ethical obittmtion to the doners to •see flint these funds are invested with such safety that the nrincipal shall not suffer loss, and that the yield he ns nigh as is consistent with safety. Third, these funds must be invested in enterprises in an economic order that is itself organized around principles that are the subject of serious criticism from the standpoint of Christian ethics. Fourth, to invest is to cooperate in present enterprise, and ‘n effect to accept present standards relative to competition, property lights and profit-making. Fifth, to invest funds in entei prises of a business nature, which the church itself operates, is to become nut an absentee cooper-

principles may be adopted from time to time may be applied in the light of all the facts that arc ascertainable. Again, the fact-finding body ought to have the facts relative to employer-employee relationships. Do the conditions square with the humanitarian demands already written into church resolutions ? What are the facts relative to wages, hours, working conditions, '•niployee participation, labor organizations? What are the facts relative to advertising and marketing technique? And again, th” fact-find-ing body should secure information concerning the activities of the cornoration in government and politics. Does the corporation finance a Peo■de's Protective League, propagaVilize a state in the guise of service, idirectly fight movements that may e for community welfare, seek to 'Tirol regulatory bodies? I believe the church should use its noney power to promote the kingVim of God. It needs facts to detervne where personality is being vvarfed and when en-iched. It h uld get the facts. Now, I would ot be misunderstood. 1 do not mean hit this fact-finding body should is- J ue pronouncements, break mto the 'uhlic press, nor any such procedure, j I do mean that investigating j committees who seek to invest | church funds under the ethical prin- J cipies of Jesus, namely, the suprem-1 icy of personality, must have all the | c ai l° possible that bear upon person■dify. and then determine for them- | selves where the money shall go. A second principle flows from the | necessity of loving truth. The church. | no matter what its stake in the pres- | ent order, must stand ready to dis- i solve the corporation known as God Mammon and Company, if scientific | research reveals the possibility of bringing richer life to larger numbers | by using the genius of the engineer, guided by the ethics of Jesus, to “control the controllable” for social well-being.
