Missionaries face suspension as funds are tied to bank crisis
New York Missionaries of the Woman's Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church face a funding crisis after Knickerbocker Trust suspends its banking. Secretary circulates notice to 27 000 members explaining the situation while Mrs. J. Sumner Stone, treasurer, reports a deficit of about 35000 dollars but a cushion from deposits keeps accounts afloat. The suspension endangers hundreds of workers in the mission fields and efforts shift to raising replacement funds.
