Financial drive of interchurch movement abandoned
The interchurch world movement ends its financial campaign with a Des Moines vote to continue or abandon state efforts. Dr. Taylor, creator and secretary, takes a year’s leave of absence due to ill health. Pledges totaling 155 million across denominations remain, while friendly citizens contributed only 3 million. Overhead costs and financing flaws hindered the vast campaign, but leaders expect some life to remain beyond the move.
