World Survey Figures Revea!
How Eadly United States is

What are the chances of a young
man who intends to be a lawyer of
making $3,000 a year? What arc the
doctors chances? What of the minis-
ter or the manufacturer?
The lawyer has exactly one chance
In five. The doctor's chances are one
In seven. It is ten to one against the
manufacturer. The modern minisfer.
however, who formerly ranked with
the doctor and lawyer as a member of
.the "learned professions," has lallen
hopelessly behi-^^ He is a l(K) to 1
shot.
These figures ... j part of a mass or
astonishing facts brought to light by
the world survey being made by the
Interchurch World Movement and
whose sources of information are such
that many economists and statistic-
ians are availing themselves of the re-
Fults. This survey puts America s
minister at the botton of the ladder
of the nation's income receivers—and
with responsibilities which equal
those of any captain of industry.
A worker In a silk mill, a laborer
in a rubber plant, a paper maker. *
woiker in a shoe factory all are P<
ting higher average wages, the survey
shows, than dops America's minister,
city or country. Nr.r does the city
man receive the luxurious salary that
many persons, including many coun-
try narsotis, believe he does. Not four
ministers in a thousand, according 'o
tho snrvev. receive. ?r.,000 a year In
no instance, whatever the denomina-
tion, does a majority receive $1,000.
Cotton Pickers Better Off.
Are you a Congregationalist? In
2.78:; churches the yearly pay to your
ministers has been less than $1,000.
\re vou a Presbyterian' You are then
on the leas than $1,000 list with B.41R
ministers. In the event that you are
;. Method'st the charge is that l.il-
,n..'r-- ♦r*'"" exist Or 'he $20
a weak that you ir.tr them. 1'.^°^
lians do a little better, yet half of
their rectors receive less than th
$1 ".on a vear which government econ
omists regard as the minimum on
which a family can be decently main-
tained
One of the aims of the present co-
operation of the world's Protestant
denominations is to end this disgrace
of tho underpaid minister. V\ ith uni-
versities. business houses and muni-
! cipalities daily taking action to pro-
1 vide the comfort of their workers the
church is to keep pace with the times,
anrt to arrange not only for adequate
pay for its workers, bnt to provide
pensions for tho: e no longer able to
! work
i U is to move the public to prevent
I unfavorable comparison of pastors and
pudM^rs. Until then, as for a pud
tiler swapping jobs with a pastor
drawing an "ordinary" salary—never"
