Catholic group calls for ten million for negro outreach
A Catholic authority proposes raising ten million dollars over two years to support work among non-church negroes. The plan, urged by archbishops of New York and Philadelphia and a leading Catholic publication, envisions Knights of Columbus fundraising and districted programs to aid and engage this population. The card indexing and local committees would organize outreach across cities, with potential broader support from Catholic and non-Catholic observers.
