Soldiers Given Preference in Reconstruction Work
Dr. W. B. Beauchamp, director general of the Centenary Campaign of the Methodist Church South, says returning soldiers will be given first access to rebuilding jobs. A drive from May 18 to 25 aims to raise 116 million dollars, with 35 million from the church, to fund churches, schools, and job programs for veterans in bricklaying, carpentry, architecture, and professional work. The plan emphasizes direct pastor and conference worker follow-up to aid veterans adjusting after the war.
