Closing Up the $300,000 Fund

THE last report on the $300,000 Fund, which appeared in the REVIEW of February 15, shows receipts on this fund up to January 31, amounting to $161,482.66. One conference and one mission field—Nebraska and Saskatchewan—are reported as having paid their full portion on this enterprise.

By action of the autumn council of November, 1911, this fund will be kept open until July 1 of the present year, after which date it is desired to close the account and effort. As a result of this action and of a somewhat similar one taken at the Friedensau council, many pledges to the fund have been made in almost all conferences in America. In view of the rapid passing of the allotted time, and also of the notification coming to the General Conference Office that China, India, and Japan are desirous of having large contributions from this fund in the very near future, it becomes exceedingly important that special effort at once be made by all concerned to help the General Conference treasury to secure speedy payment upon all pledges made.
