ANNUAL REPORT

AMERICAN BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS FOR FOREIGN MISSIONS

A 1 V, jio- ¡14 Preface

Once more it has been thought best to present to the American Board’s constit­

uency a somewhat abbreviated annual report of its doings. The customary separate

reviews of the several fields with locations of missionaries and descriptions of mission

institutions have been omitted. The material for preparing such narratives and

tabulation from the Turkey fields is for obvious reasons very incomplete and in­

adequate. In place of these separated accounts has been inserted the Survey of the

Fields prepared by the Foreign Department and presented at the Annual Meeting

in Marietta, Ohio, last October.

The high cost of printing and the increased pressure upon those in charge of ad­

ministering the Board’s work in these disturbed years have re-enforced the decision

to issue a curtailed report for 1920. The hope is entertained that it may be possible

soon to return to the ampler form.

Our income from churches, Sunday Schools, Individual gifts and Y . P. S. C. E. societies amounts to $2.86 per capita, on basis of 808,000 church members. Our Budget for 1921 is $6.19 per capita, ($5,000,000,00). But if we add to the $2.86, $3.09 more, which is its per capita on 2,500,000 esti­ mated receipts on Pilgrim Memorial fund, it amounts to $5.95, which churches, individuals and societies have given this year, which is only 24c. per capita, less than our 1921 Budget. Your Committee is satisfied that the Treasurer’s report has been classified, checked, and audited until the last needful act along those lines has been performed. While the debt is large, and a burden of no insignificant importance, the C. W . M . Emergency fund tide is flowing in, and doubtless before the Christmas holidays, will have covered the jagged rocks of indebtedness now within our vision, and we then, according to spiritual injunction, “ shall owe no man anything but to love one another.” Regarding the 1921 Budget of the 7 Societies, of five million dollars, or $6.19 per capita, American Board $2.32, — one cannot, in the presence of these consecrated missionaries, ambassadors for Christ, who have invested their lives with Him in the foreign Mission fields of the world, say that to raise this money is a compelling challenge of a great task. I should blush to say it or even to think it. Is there joy in the presence of the angels of God— over one sinner that repenteth? Jesus said there is. Is the soul of Man priceless? Was that what Jesus meant, when he said, “ What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his soul?” If we meet the coming year with a strong conviction of our responsibility to God and our duty to our neighbors, — and a deep religious impulse, — we’ll raise this bud­ 8 Minutes of the Annual Meeting get, without so much as mentioning the word "sacrifice” in connection therewith. One question is if it should be allowable to use the word “ sacrifice’ in connection with a budget less than five times the amount of the present one. Nevertheless, we recognize the wisdom of Dr. Swartz’s plan of work along the Missionary Education and Stewardship lines, that all our people may quickly come into such wisdom and understanding, that all shall be willing to give and to serve, yes — sacrifice, for the work of the World’s redemption.

The Committee on Nominations reported the following committees and they were appointed:

Committee to Nominate Officers for 1921: David Fales, of Illinois; W . W . Mills, of Ohio; W . E. Sweet, of Colorado; Pres. James A . Blaisdell, of California; Pres. Stephen B. L. Penrose, of Washington.

Committee on Treasurer's Report fot 1921: Charles A . Ufford, of Massachusetts; W . L. Lewis, of Washington; Rev. H . E. Brown, of Illinois.

It was voted that the report of progress made by the Committee on the Pro­ tection of Armenians be accepted, the committee discharged and the balance of any funds raised for the uses of the Committee turned over to the American Armenian Committee. Secretary Patton made an informal report for the Committee on Unity, appointed in 1918, in which he stated that the activity of similar committees of the denomina­ tional bodies makes it unnecessary for special committees of the foreign missionary societies to act in this matter. The committee was discharged. Secretary Patton made an earnest plea for the loyal support of the Congregational World Movement, pointing out its vital relation to the success of the Board’s work. There was an extended discussion in which many participated. After prayer by Secretary English recess was taken to attend the reception tended to the Board by President and Mrs. Parsons, of Marietta College.

THURSDAY EVENING

The Board assembled at 7:30, President Moore in the chair. President John E. Merrill of Central Turkey College, led the devotional service. President Moore requested all the missionaries of the Board present at the meet­ ing, forty-three in number, to come to the platform. The congregation rose to greet them. President Moore led in prayer after the singing of the hymn, “ Faith of our Fathers.” Acting Secretary Clark introduced as student volunteers Paul Reynolds, Miss Grace Vining, Dwight Smith, Frank T . Meacham, Henry Jessup, and Dr. A . B Taylor, and each of them spoke briefly of their motives and aspiration for mission­ Minutes of the Annual Meeting 9 ary service. Dr. and Mrs. Taylor were then commissioned as missionaries of the American Board by President Moore. Rev. Henry A. Stick of South Africa extended the right hand of fellowship and offered the prayer of consecration. The Rev. Dan A . Poling, of Boston, addressed the Board on The Appeal of M is­ sionary Service and the session closed with prayer by Rev. Irving Maurer of Ohio.

FRIDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 15

The Board assembled at nine o’clock, President Moore in the chair. Rev. W . F. Bohn, of Ohio, led the devotional service. The minutes were read and approved. Secretary Strong introduced a group of missionaries from China, who brought Tidings of Hope and Progress in China. Rev. C. A . Stanley spoke of The Student Movement; Rev. Charles L. Storrs, of Shaowu, on The Missionary and Educational Opportunities; Rev. P. L. Corbin, of Taiku, on Country-wide Evangelism; Rev. G. H. Hubbard, of Foochow, on The Developing Church; F. F. G. Donaldson, of Ingtai, on The Trend to Unity; Rev. W . L. Beard, of Foochow on The China Con­ tinuation Committee. The annual service of intercession was led with great impressiveness by Secre­ tary Bell. President Moore delivered his annual address on The Necessity of Religion in the Life of the World. The minutes of the session were read and approved and the Recording Secretary authorized to complete the record. The Business Committee presented the following resolutions which were adopted by rising vote: From time immemorial it has been the duty of the business committee to pre­ pare and present resolutions of appreciation for what has been received at the hands of various organizations and individuals at these annual meetings. It is far more than the duty, it is the high privilege of the present committee to offer such appreciation to-day. When, however, we undertook to prepare a suitable acknowledgment, which should adequately set forth the obligations under which we rest, and specify those to whom we were indebted, the magnitude of the task became at once apparent. Therefore, to the people of this beautiful city as a comprehensive whole we return our united thanks. You met us beyond the city gates and escorted us to your homes, which became thereafter ours; you commandeered your best hotels for our enter- tainm trt; you anticipated our every need. So admirable were the arrangements, so easily and quietly did the machinery work, that things just came done, we knew not how. You have set a standard which will be hard to follow. It has been a pleasure to be with you. W e came as strangers, we shall part as friends.

Rev. W . L. Goldsmith, pastor of the First Congregational Church, expressed deep appreciation of what the meeting had meant to the church and city. Presi­ dent Moore responded and introduced Mr. W . W . Mills, who spoke briefly and offered the closing prayer. After a hymn, President Moore pronounced the benediction and the 111th annual meeting of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions adjourned sine die. Attest: OSCAR E. MAURER. Recording Secretary.

ANNUAL REPORT 1919-1920

The American Board and the New Era

THE 110TH YEAR Report of the Prudential Committee for the Home Department for the year ending August 31, 1920

The 110th year of the Board has proved to be one of unusual inter­ est both in the task of administration and in the ongoings of the work upon the field. Difficult problems have confronted us on every side; at times they have seemed overwhelming; yet we record some of the greatest successes in the history of the Board. God has led us step by step, and never have your officers and committeemen been more impressed by the spiritual undergirding of the work. Both in respect to the operations abroad and the administration at home we have been reminded of those words of Paul,- “A great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.” We have come to feel, with the apostle, that in the economy of the King­ dom, adversaries and opportunities march side by side. The doors of opportunity are swinging open before us, not in spite of the obstacles, but because of them.

THE APPROPRIATIONS

When the Committee met in October, 1919, to make the appro­ priations for our nineteen missions, covering every department of work, they were confronted by the necessity of either adding $305,000 to the amount of the previous year, or of closing a large number of schools and other institutions and calling home scores of missionaries. The leading factors in the situation were the adverse rate of exchange," especially in the Far East, and the enhanced cost of living in prac­ tically every land, necessitating larger salaries for both missionaries and native laborers. So much has been said and written upon this subject, that we need not go into detail in this report. The condi­ tions have been most extraordinary, and future historians desiring to study the course of foreign finance in the years following immediately upon the war will find the 1919 and 1920 files of the Missionary Herald instructive reading. After struggling with the matter during the war period, and after making sundry minor increases in appropriations 14 Home Department for salaries and work, the point had been reached when the Board was constrained to ask its constituents to make possible a marked increase or to determine upon radical reductions in its work. The latter course could hardly be thought of in a day when the foreign missionary cause has come to be recognized as of primary importance in the work of world reconstruction, and when statesmen and economists, are vying with one another in beseeching the Church to proclaim her gospel of justice and love to the ends of the earth. In fact, your Committee did not dwell upon the possibility of retrench­ ment. The Congregational people had stood by their Board through­ out the war years, responding again and again to its appeals, and with­ out remitting their giving to national and other causes. Next to our confidence that God was summoning us to meet the new crisis man­ fully, the record of those years became our warrant for voting the largest single increase in appropriations ever made in the history of the Board. We made the plunge before it was possible to formulate definite plans for the enlargement of our income. We realized that should the year end with an unprovided-for deficit as large as $305,000, it would be a staggering blow to our work. It took courage and faith to vote such an increase. Our confidence was not misplaced.

THE CAMPAIGN FOR FUNDS At the meeting of the National Council, held in Grand Rapids last October, after prolonged and earnest debate over the financial needs of our missionary boards and American educational institu­ tions, provision was made for a commission of one hundred persons to inaugurate a five years’ intensive campaign among the churches, stressing education and finance. The name for the movement, chosen by the Commission, was “The Congregational World Move­ ment,” and the financial objective adopted for 1919-20 was the raising of an extra fund of $3,000,000 as an emergency effort in behalf of our boards and colleges. It was realized that such a sum fell far short of meeting the situation in which our Congregational interests had become involved as a result of conditions during and after the war; but having in mind the necessity of completing the Pilgrim Memorial Fund for pensioning aged ministers, which the denomina­ tion had decided upon as its financial objective in the Tercentenary year, it was not thought wise to attempt a larger measure of relief. It appeared to your Committee that this movement offered the Home Department 15

best, really the only means for increasing our income to match the increase in our appropriations. It would be obviously inappropriate and futile for the Board to join in a union effort of this kind, and at the same time campaign for a large special fund of its own. It was decided, accordingly, to place the securing of $305,000 at the head of our list of emergency needs. Of the $3,000,000 sought for by the Congregational World Movement, the foreign interests were to re­ ceive $965,000, which was to be distributed two-thirds to the American Board and one-third to the Woman’s Boards. Should the entire amount be subscribed, and there be no falling off in the regular income of the Board, the increase in appropriations would be met, and there would remain $337,333 for the special and pressing needs of our institutions around the world. The officers of the Board joined heartily in the campaign, which culminated in a financial canvass in May, coincident with that of many other denominations affiliated with the Interchurch World Movement. Our churches quite generally responded to the appeal, notwithstanding the pressure of the Pilgrim Memorial Fund, whose canvass was not finished until March 1. The plan was followed of asking the churches to accept for this special fund an apportionment equal to 150 per cent of the regular apportionment. Some 2,000 churches achieved this result, and many others did exceedingly well. A considerable number of churches found it impracticable to make the attempt in the Spring, but gave assurance they would undertake to raise their share in the fall. Reports have been received of $1,700,- 000 subscriptions actually made, and careful estimates on the part of state superintendents and field workers indicate that an additional sum of $600,000 may be looked for, making in all $2,300,000. On this basis, the American Board would receive $492,200, and the Woman’s Boards, $246,100. We prefer, however, to be more conservative, and to estimate only upon what is known to be subscribed. On this basis, the American Board will receive $363,800, which sum is applicable upon the deficit of the year, and will be paid in monthly installments from the treasury of the Congregational World Movement as collected from the churches up to May 1, 1921.

THE REGULAR INCOME OF THE BOARD While all this campaigning was going on in behalf of the Emergency Fund, the churches did not remit their efforts in respect to the regular 16 Home Department

support of the Board’s work. At the beginning of the fiscal year, the Home Department estimated a gain from church and individual donations of $100,000. We are happy to report that this figure has been exceeded, the gain being $106,735.70, which is the largest single­ year gain of regular donations which we can recall. This figure analyzed shows an advance in offerings from churches of $58,307.96; from Sunday schools and Young People’s Societies of $4,491; from individual gifts of $43,936.74. In addition, it should be noted that individual friends sent to the Board the magnificent sum of $184,136.91 for special objects not included in our appropriations, a gain over the former year of $51,579.01. All things considered, it has been a year full of encouragement as to the growing interest and devotion of our churches toward their foreign work. If any further evidence on that score is needed, it will be found in the fact that the three Woman’s Boards have raised during the year the sum of $496,234.03, which is a gain over 1919 of $102,- 298.06. Had our other sources of income kept pace with the donations, the year’s outcome would have been quite different from what we must report. There has been a falling off in receipts from legacies, after they have been subjected to the thirding process through the Twentieth Century Fund, of $44,616.72; in matured conditional gifts of $69,516.67; and in general income of $998.22, making a total loss in this department of income of $115,131.61. Striking the balance between our gains and losses, in such receipts as are applicable upon the regular appropriations of the Board, we register a loss of $8,395.91. Had it not been for the establishment of the Twentieth Century Fund for the equalizing of legacy receipts, our loss in that item would have been far larger. After a series of years in which our legacy re­ ceipts have been increasing and the Twentieth Century Fund has been building up, we come to this year of marked shrinkage. The wisdom of the Fund’s establishment has been signally demonstrated. It remains to state the total receipts of the Board from all sources. Adding together our donations, regular and special, our income from legacies, matured conditional gifts, interest on various funds, gifts of Woman’s Boards, and what has already been received from the Congregational World Movement, we secure the impressive figure of $1,651,546.99, a gain over the total of 1919 of 128,244.40. The report of the Treasurer contains all needed detail as to receipts Home Department 17 and expenditures. It is sufficient for the purposes of this report to state that the total expenditures exceed the total receipts by $242,544.- 36, which constitutes the deficit for the year. This sum, as we have already intimated, is more than covered by what we consider to be reliable pledges to the Congregational World Movement Emergency Fund. While we regret that the future is mortgaged so heavily, we rejoice that the payment of the mortgage is provided for in advance.

CLOSING A DECADE With this year we finish a new decade, the eleventh in the Board’s history, and it proves to be both interesting and heartening to glance backward through the column of receipts as found in our annual reports. The past ten years may be known as the million dollar decade. We passed the long-hoped-for and worked-for million dollar mark in 1911, and it is gratifying to report that we have not dropped below that standard; rather we have marched steadily on, until we see ourselves nearing the two million dollar mark. Comparing the re­ ceipts of the year just passed with those of the first year of the decade, we find we have registered a gain of $656,132.63, or an average of something over $65,000 per year. In the previous decade, between 1890 and 1900, the gain was $257,456.97. We might wish that our receipts had advanced at a more rapid rate, but the steady upward trend through so long a period would seem to indicate that we are following sound and fairly effective policies in our efforts to enlist the co-operation of churches and individuals.

THE INTERCHURCH WORLD MOVEMENT The attitude of the American Board towards this co-operative movement among Protestant mission boards, which met with such an unexpected setback, has been set forth extensively in the literature of the year. It needs only to be dealt with here as a matter of record, and perhaps by way of registering a maturer judgment. The Inter­ church, in its deepest significance, arose from the increasing desire of the missionary forces of America, home and foreign, to unite in a program of world-wide advance. It was born of a passion for the redemption of the world through Jesus Christ. The impulse toward such a movement, which had been growing for several years, was greatly accelerated by the national and social conditions produced or revealed by the war. In the face of such a world, for the Church of 18 Home Department

Christ to present a divided front was felt to be a sin against God and man. If the churches could not be brought to think together theologically, they could at least, so it was argued, be persuaded to work together for a great world purpose. The signing of the Armis­ tice brought a divine compulsion to the churches of America; they considered they had received a mandate from God to unite in a cam­ paign of service as broad as the human race. Unfortunately this purely spiritual quickening was accompanied by an over-reliance upon certain methods which the war philanthropy had developed for stirring the public conscience and securing vast sums which were needed. From this point of view the Interchurch was an attempt to emulate the war drives for a wider purpose; By a process of sound reasoning it was felt that a united advance, which should solicit the giving of life and money on an unprecedented scale, could be war­ ranted only on the basis of a fresh and accurate study of world needs. It was realized that the war methods could not and should not be imitated in the matter of asking for colossal sums in behalf of loosely estimated needs. The movement must have under it the solid basis of fact. Hence the large place which the survey came to hold in the Interchurch plans, and hence, alas! the delay which carried the financial canvass beyond the trajectory ofthe war spirit and enthusiasm. When the canvass was made, the psychological moment had passed; the post-war reaction had set in. Two denominations, one affiliated with the Interchurch only in its educational plans, the other not at all — the N orthern Methodist and the Southern Baptist — carried through highly successful cam­ paigns in the Spring and Fall of 1919, the one securing pledges on a five- year basis for the magnificent sum of $113,000,000, the other for about $80,000,000. In the Spring of 1920, we found ourselves in an atmos­ phere far less favorable for such efforts. The moral enthusiasms of the war were on the wane; the public, Christian as well as general, was weary of drives. In the light of the situation as we now understand it, the results of the united simultaneous campaign of May, 1920, were sur­ prisingly large. A number of the smaller denominations raised their full budgets, thereby increasing their income three and in one case fourfold. The stronger denominations, while not reaching their goals, secured far larger sums than would have been possible had it not been for the stimulus of the united effort. As for ourselves, it seems clear that the raising of the emergency fund, which has saved the day for the American Board and for other Congregational interests, Home Department 19 would not even have been attempted but for our alignment with the other denominations through the Interchurch. Had the movement been judged solely by its influence upon de­ nominational effort, it would have been pronounced, in the main, a success. Unfortunately the officials laid great stress upon the raising of a fund of $40,000,000 from the general public, outside of the Church, which was to be distributed among the co-operating societies at the close of the campaign. This effort proved to be such a dismal failure that the Boards were forced to pay the sums they had underwritten for the heavy expenses of the long campaign without any offsetting benefit from the general fund. As a result, several denominations withdrew, public criticism became rife, and the movement has been brought to a standstill until such time as reorganization of a radical sort can be brought about. The underwriting of the American Board, following the conservative recommendation of the National Council, was for only four per cent upon our expected share in the $3,000,000 Emergency Fund, and amounted to $36,000. This obligation has been met. We are confident the benefits we have received outweigh the cost of this great venture in Christian internationalism. We are not content, however, to leave the matter in this way. Apart from the mistake which was made as to the timing of the financial canvass, we are inclined to think the methods which were em­ ployed in the publicity and finance departments of the Interchurch were not calculated to produce the best results in a campaign of this nature. After all, missions are a religious enterprise, whose success in the long run must depend upon the deep and quiet motives of Chris­ tian character and purpose. Boldness is called for in behalf of Christ’s work, and rapid progress can often be made, but not as a result of spectacular display or the pressure of war-drives. Tastes vary in such matters, and we would not be over critical where the motive is lofty; but to our Congregational way of thinking, the campaign methods of the Interchurch partook over much of the ways of the professional money-raiser. They were too superficial, too mechanical, too noisy, too expensive. We trust the lesson has been learned once for all as to the danger of a faulty method frustrating an enterprise of noble conception and scope. The great idea of the Interchurch must not, cannot be allowed to die. The conception of the whole Church facing the whole task and moving unitedly to its performance, having once been given to the 20 Home Department

world, will find some new form of realization. We would extend our sympathy to the interdenominational committee which is studying the reconstruction of the movement on a greatly simplified basis, and pray that their labors may be crowned with success.

RECRUITS

The success of the work of the American Board depends, in the last analysis, on our securing the enlistment of an adequate supply of well -qualified new missionaries — men and women of caliber, leader­ ship, and devotion, qualified to play a large part in the intricate adjustments that face non-Christian peoples today. During the past year three factors did much toward shaping the recruiting work of the Board — the Student Volunteer Convention at Des Moines, the campaign for Life Service of the Interchurch World Movement, and the after effects of the war. Mission Boards have come to recognize the great quadrennial gathering of the Student Volunteer Movement as one of the largest factors in bringing to the students of America such missionary knowl­ edge and enthusiasm as shall lead them into missionary service. In spite of some rather severe criticisms of this year’s program, the overwhelming majority of the 7,000 delegates who gathered from all parts of America for the ten days’ convention at Des Moines went back to their colleges with a clearer vision of world service than they had ever had before. How many of them have already made actual missionary decisions as a result of the convention no one can say, but the number is not small. There were many others who felt the challenge of the world’s need so strongly that a large number of them will undoubtedly decide for that service. A part of the Interchurch World Movement’s program which received little publicity, but which bulked large in its plans, was the effort to secure recruits for Christian service. Efforts were made to send a team of leaders who had already proved themselves effective with students into every higher educational institution in America. These teams were to present, in the broadest interdenominational way, the imperative call of America and of the world for many types of Christian workers. In most cases, these teams included Christian representatives of business houses. Their emphasis, however, was upon life service in distinctly Christian callings. American Board Home Department 21 representatives took part in these campaigns, which absorbed much of the time of some of the officers for several months. We are frank to say that the results were, on the whole, disap­ pointing. Undoubtedly much good was done, in a general way, in presenting to students the importance of Christian service, but definite decisions for such service were comparatively few. Almost without exception, the colleges were found to be in the midst of the after-the- war reaction. Those who had come back from France did not care to consider a fresh appeal to go to foreign lands. Many of them were expressing themselves in such phraseology as “ Little old America is good enough for me.” It is the almost universal testimony that the Student Army Training Corps was a more or less unsettling influence in college life. Students freely admitted in interviews that their main thought was to find a career in which they could make money. Here and there were found exceptional institutions which had seemed to be able to carry over into the great service of peace the spirit of de­ votion engendered by the war; but for the most part, American insti­ tutions during the school year 1919-20 were in the midst of the general post-war sag, with its reaction against appeals to sacrifice or to idealism. In spite of the fact that during this campaign strong efforts were made to put every prospective candidate in touch with his own Board, very few names of actual missionary candidates have come to us from the thousands of interviews that were held by picked team leaders in institutions all over the country. What we have been saying applies with greater force to college boys than to college girls. One of the notable facts in our recruiting this year is that the number of women candidates is far greater than of men. In several of the cases we have definite evidence that these girls have come out of the war period feeling that they had not yet “ done their bit” toward the saving of the world. They have turned most naturally and fittingly to the foreign field for the satisfaction of that great impulse to service. It is only just to say that the student conferences held during the last summer at Silver Bay and other places had a power which came from a deep sense of need, and which will surely bring back into the colleges a stronger emphasis on character and devotion. It is our strong hope that the end of the war reaction is in sight, and that during the coming year we may again find the impulse toward service flowing full and strong among the students of America. 22 Home Department

This last year, due to the unusual numbers secured by the Woman’s Boards, we have obtained the largest group of new recruits ever ylisted by the Board — seventy-three in all. Of these, seventeen are men, nine are wives, and forty-seven are single women. This large number of workers is a cause for rejoicing. However, we must note with grave concern that of them all only five men are going out as ordained missionaries. The very serious post-war condition of the American theological seminaries is clearly reflected in this fact. Not only has the theological education of many men been retarded by the war, but a number have been deflected from the theological schools into other vocations. Indications point to a somewhat more normal condition in the seminaries during the coming year, and we hope to have better results to show. Yet we have nowhere in sight today enough recruits to meet the most urgent demands of the field for ordained workers. It is easy to picture what it means to our nineteen missions to have only five ordained men sent out to them in any year. Are there not, in some of our overchurched American towns, young Congregational ministers who will catch the vision of ministry in some of the great mission fields, where one’s parish may be a county or district, and where he may have a molding influence on church and society in this critical period of transition? We are glad to be able to send out to fill vitally important positions height physicians, five of these being women.. In the case of medical workers, we seem to have gained through the war, which has opened out to both doctors and nurses new visions of wide service. We have need, however, of many more than eight doctors for positions of critical need and great opportunity. It is interesting that no less than twenty-six of our new mission­ aries are going on short-term engagements. Many of these are just out of college. For the most part they go as teachers in colleges and academies. From our past experience, we confidently predict that most of these will become so attached to the people and work to which they go that later on, after returning home for special study, they will eventually apply for life service. This year, as heretofore, the catholicity of spirit of foreign missions is illustrated by the fact that over a third of our recruits are from other than Congregational churches. Friendship or relationship with some missionary on the field, marriage to a Congregational volunteer, desire for a special type of work or for a certain field, or education under Home Department 23

Congregational auspices, draw most of these to the American Board, while we in turn, contribute in a similar way to other Boards. From Massachusetts to California and from Canada to Texas, has our appeal for recruits met with success. Twenty-three States are represented, Illinois heading the list with ten, followed by New York and Connecticut with seven each, Massachusetts, six, California, five, Minnesota and Michigan, each four. The Middle West gave us thirty-three recruits this year, while twenty-five came from New England and the Northern Atlantic States. As one might easily infer from the wide distribution of our seventy- three new missionaries, they come from many colleges, seminaries, and other training schools, fifty-four institutions being represented. Oberlin, as usual, heads the list with six, Carleton coming next with four, followed by Holyoke, Vassar, Columbia, Wheaton, and Grinnell, with three each. In spite of the unsettled condition of part of the old Turkish em­ pire, it has been possible to send out workers to some sections to re­ enforce our depleted ranks. Cther recruits have gone to Constanti­ nople for their period of language study, in the expectation that at the end of it they can get to their various stations. Nineteen have this year been appointed to the Turkey and Balkan Missions. Several of these are expected to concentrate on work for the Moslems. This group is. the vanguard of the seventy authorized and urgently needed for the rehabilitation of our work in these desolated yet promising lands.. We were very glad to be able to stress Africa this year, appointing sixteen to the two missions there. China also drawn sixteen of these new workers, five of the sixteen being doctors; yet we secured no re­ cruits for the South China Mission, where we stand in great need of an educator of large caliber for an important union academy. We are especially glad to have enlisted seven new workers for Japan, where in face of unexampled oppcrtunity and need our forces have actually been decreasing in recent years. We hope to secure many more than seven for Japan during the coming year. India and Ceylon, with three missions, secured only seven new re­ cruits his year out of thirty who were authorized. The needs in these missions for men and women to carry on established and fruitful work in school and community are as great as anywhere in the world. Four were appointed to the Philippines, three to Mexico, and three 24 Home Department to Spain. We are now looking for urgently needed recruits for each of these missions. The world around, in all our missions, new opportunities have come with the new era. We rejoice in the seventy-three lives consecrated to this service during the past year, but we would be remiss in our duty if we did not bring to you at this time the urgent appeal for 200 more apostles of Christian brotherhood, to go forth this coming year into all our missions, to help in the only solution that can ever really solve the intricate and difficult problems of human character and human relationships.

ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES

The death of our Treasurer, Mr. Frank H. Wiggin, after twenty- four years of service, came as a personal blow to hosts of the Board’s friends. His name had become almost inseparably connected with the office he filled. While impressing himself as the custodian of the Board’s business interests and funds, he formed helpful friendships with hundreds of givers, and was the adviser of missionaries in all parts of the world. He was a familiar and beloved figure in our Annual Meetings, where his form will be greatly missed. The Pru­ dential Committee, at the time of Mr. Wiggin’s retirement from active duty and a little later upon his death, made affectionate record of his services and character. We trust the Board at this meeting may find some appropriate way of expressing what we all feel as to Mr. Wiggin’s long and fruitful career. Upon Mr. Wiggin’s retirement, under the authorization of the By-Laws of the Board, the Prudential Committee appointed as Treasurer, Mr. Frederick A. Gaskins, of Boston, to fill out the unexpired term. Mr. Gaskins, whose training and experience fitted him well for 26 Home Department the office, took up his new duties on May 1, and thus was able to carry us through the closing months of the year. He will make his own report at this time. For thirty-one years, a feature of our Annual Report has been the story of the activities of the Chicago Office, under the leadership of Dr. A. N. Hitchcock. Through this office, the Board has reached out to twenty-four States of the Interior District, where about three thou­ sand churches have looked to our Chicago Secretary for counsel and help in developing their missionary interest. In addition to his work with the churches and denominational organizations, the Secretary has been called upon to act for the Board in multitudes of business matters, such as the settlement of legacies, the care of real estate, the providing for missionaries who were passing through Chicago, and almost constant negotiation with the Woman’s Board of the Interior. In all these respects, Dr. Hitchcock’s sound judgment, never failing tact, and unwavering devotion have yielded large returns for the Board. As he lays down the main responsibility for the office, intrusting it to younger hands, we desire to record the gratitude and appreciation felt by the officers and Prudential Committee for what his energy and devotion have brought to pass. We are happy to state that Dr. Hitchcock consents to remain in the office as Associate Secretary, and to render full-time service for so long a period as his strength may allow. We have been fortunate in securing as the new Secretary for the Interior District, Rev. William F. English, Jr., who, in a sense, is a child of the Board, since his parents were missionaries to Turkey; and who, after filling successful pastorates in the East, became the effective New England representative of the Near East Relief. We bespeak for him the hearty co-operation of the members of the Board in his dis­ trict, and of all the Congregational people of the Middle West. His term of service began September 1. Year by year the work of the Prudential Committee grows in volume and importance. Our increased missionary force and our extending lines make this inevitable. This year the dockets for the fortnightly meetings became so crowded that an arrangement was worked out by which many routine questions, covered for the most part by the handbook rules of the Board, should be determined by the executive officers in their cabinet meeting, the vote of this Com­ mittee being given 1 en bloc.” Even so, the dockets are over long, and Home Department 27 more frequent meetings may be necessary. The amount of business coming before the Committee is indicated by the fact that during the year 1,009 separate votes were taken, many of these covering a number of items or extensive sub-committee recommendations. Correspondingly, the executive officers find themselves increasingly limited for time to attend to the work of their departments, a prominent factor in the problem being the steady development of co-operation between the foreign Boards of America and Europe, with resulting journeys, conferences, committee work, etc. A sub-committee of the Prudential Committee has been at work making a fresh study of the executive departments in their operations and relationships, and re­ ports from time to time such increase of staff and such changes as appear necessary. Inevitably the expansion of our home office force, with the mounting cost of living, has made for increased administra­ tion expense; we believe, however, not out of proportion to the grow­ ing income of the Board. We are determined that the Board’s reputa­ tion for businesslike thoroughness and dispatch shall be maintained. In conclusion, let us say that while the year has been one of many difficult problems and of heavy pressure of work, not unmixed with anxiety, it has been a year of exceptional fruitfulness and full of joy in the service. No man can come upon the Prudential Committee of the American Board in these days without the deepest appreciation of the labors of those who have served in former years, and a sense of exaltation over being engaged so directly in the work of Kingdom build­ ing at a time when God’s spirit is moving in such a marvelous way upon the non-Christian world and upon the Church at home.

AFRICA Zulu In the Zulu or Southern Branch of the South Africa Mission, the past year has been one of difficulty. “All the members of the mission have been working at top speed all the time.” Overworked supervisors of churches have attempted impossible tasks. There has also been the continued activity of Ethiopian bodies, prominent among which is one headed by Mvuyana, a former pastor of the Johannesburg church. The entrance of the American Methodists at Johannesburg has created a situation which is very perplexing, and which, some of the mission feel, will probably lead to the formation of another Ethiopian sect. The school situation, however, is very encouraging within the Southern Branch’s field. Some of the primary schools have been taken over by Government, this marking the beginning of a momentous experiment. A new lease of life has been taken at Amanzimtoti, in the Theological Department, which promises to eventuate in more spiritual leaders for the crying needs of the Natal churches A beginning of a medical school at Durban has become possible, though on a comparatively small scale. Dr. McCord has secured an associate, Dr. Taylor, for the purpose. This is the only medical school projected for the natives of South Africa. It is the hope that in due time it may develop into a union institution, meeting the needs of all South and Central Africa. Something should be said of the strikes and race riots in the Rand. A feeling of resentment and distress still rankles in the breasts of the natives, who are feeling their strength as perhaps never before, and who are organizing for some kind of action. Anti-white feeling is growing apace, resulting largely from the Pass Law enforcement; also from the inconsiderate way in which their grievances are treated by the Town Council (at Vrededorp), and from the unjust treatment meted out to them in the Courts. Socialistic and Bolshevik propa­ ganda material is being circulated widely. The immediate necessity of strengthening the hands of our Johannesburg missionaries in their social service and in evangelistic work is apparent. Happily a good beginning has been made. Survey of the Fields 29

Rhodesia

In the Northern Branch, we receive news of no little progress made. The work of training through the industrial and agricultural depart­ ments has received an added impulse. On the commercial side of the Industrial Department, too, the year has been the most prosperous in its history. American Mission furniture is now known thro ghout Rhodesia, and holds an enviable reputation both for quality and price. The educational work of the Branch is gradually making headway, and as for the evangelistic work, this has received a great impetus through the appointment of much-needed ordained men The news has come that the Portuguese East Africa Government has awarded the mission a title to our Gogoyo property. This repre­ sents a tremendous amount of persistence on the part of our mis­ sionaries against studied and secret opposition. Now it is possible for the mission to remain, and it is the hope that it may soon have permission to develop its schools in Portuguese East Africa.

Angola

The region at present occupied by the West Africa Mission is but a small part of the territory of one tribe, the Ovimbundu. With the present force of equipment, it is not in a position to provide adequately even for the territory it has; while on all sides are untouched regions extending from 100 to 300 miles. A beginning of exploration was made last year. The mission found that on all sides not only were there open doors, but also were there pressing invitations to enter and occupy. The work that has been done witnesses to the multitude and power of the adversaries, and to the tremendous obstacles to be over­ come in any effort to save the people from their sin and superstition. All signs seem to indicate that the presence of a foreign missionary is essential to the opening up of a permanent work in new tribes. Effec­ tive evangelistic work for this one tribe (Ovimbundu) has been carried on at all stations, and has been featured with gratifying results in all the training schools. The great need, however, everywhere is for more trained men. With a view to solving this problem, a boarding school plan has been universally adopted by the mission, with gratify­ ing results. These training schools, located in the mission centers, are coming to assume a most important role in our work. Unfor­ tunately they are being conducted with inadequate accommodations 30 Survey of the Fields and funds, thus limiting from the very beginning their efficiency and scope. Nevertheless they have a wide circle of influence, and there are large numbers of candidates. Would that the schools might be large enough to accommodate in sufficient numbers these boys and girls, who in time will meet the needs of the growing work in hand, to say nothing of the evangelism of the great fields about the mission! The keystone of the arch of efficient training consists of the Central Training Schools at Dondi. Within the West Africa Mission, the development of the work in the outlying district of the various stations has been quite gratifying. The people are calling for schools, and are doing much toward meeting their expenses. In connection with our West Africa work, we should call attention to the progress made by our sister society co-operating with us in this work, the Canadian Congregational Society. They have recently carried through a successful plan for funds, having raised $75,000 for buildings at Dondi, which has become their chief responsibility. They have also strengthened their work at Chisamba, and are taking over progressively the station at Kamundongo. The governor general of the Angola Province, in which we work in West Africa, has issued an interesting circular looking toward strength­ ening the purpose of the Portuguese Government to guarantee liberty of beliefs and of free public exercise of all worship, the right to erect religious buildings and to organize missions belonging to the various cults that are represented in that part of Africa. This circular of the governor general was occasioned by rumors spread by evil-intentioned persons, who apparently had only in view the creating of difficulties for the Portuguese Republic, to the effect that all foreign missionary work was to be closed by order of Government. The governor general makes it clear that the Republic is absolutely determined to maintain and respect in their entirety the articles of the General Act of Berlin and of the Conference of Brussels, and any other treaties with various countries bearing upon such matters. The governor general indeed seems disposed to grant, in accordance with Article 6 of his decree, as much as 500 hectares of land, freely and without any expense, to the religious missions which undertake the responsibility of teaching the natives of Angola in the Portuguese language. He is “ determined” to give to foreign religious missions existing in Angola not only the protection which international understandings compel, Survey of the Fields 31

but also all the moral and material help which he can give under the law, provided the missions and missionaries contribute to the in­ struction and education of the natives of the province, to their civiliza­ tion, and to the founding in the colony of respect for the sovereignty of the Republic. Thus the missionaries would become valuable helpers in the work of civilization and progress.

CZECHOSLOVAKIA

The new Republic of Czechoslovakia is, in a sense, still in swaddling clothes; yet it is very much alive and is gradually getting its bearings. A good deal of progress has been made during the past year, both in the nation and within the circles of the mission and churches. God has wrought great things in Czechoslovakia. From the religious standpoint, it looks as if the heavy yoke of Romanism had been cast aside. Under that yoke the country was despoiled and robbed, and though now the nation has to build itself on such a foundation, without money and without strength, yet the people feel their liberty, and are slowly learning how to use this great gift. In the olden days, the Roman hierarchy was everywhere in the ascendency; when freedom came, however, the people began to think for themselves as never before; and for political reasons, if for no other, they are turning away from the old church by the thousands. To be sure, the separation of Church and State, which was promised at the outset, has not yet been brought about; but it is certain that while the hierarchy is still very powerful in Czechoslovakia, it is not in control as it was. Whole parishes have gone out in a body and joined a newly formed Catholic Church called the Czechoslovak National Church, which, like a similar movement in the Philippines years ago, refuses allegiance to the Pope, discards the use of Latin, putting Bohemian in its place, and also allows its priests to marry. All this means much. It makes the people much readier to listen to the simple gospel truth, and more ready to go even further in accepting Jesus Christ. The church with which our mission is affiliated has taken the name of the old Bohemian church — Bo­ hemian Brotherhood. It has shown a good spirit of independence, and is going forward in new endeavor. The year for the mission has been one of good things, even in the material realm. The mission has taken advantage of the high rate of the dollar, and has paid off debts that were held on some of the halls where our work is carried on. The mission rejoices over this freedom from a long, oppressive financial 32 Survey of the Fields burden, and can now turn its material resources toward the extension of the work under peculiarly promising conditions. The privilege of holding services in school buildings, city halls, and other public buildings, not to speak of the very marketplaces themselves, has been a real joy, tempered only by the inability of the mission to accept all the opportunities offered. Hundreds and perhaps thousands have heard the gospel for the first time in this way. Never has there seemed to be in Czechoslovakia such a desire to know about the evangelical church and about the Bible and about the Saviour himself. The mission could well treble its number of Bohemian associates. The needs are great; the opportunités are even greater; and the promise of a great harvest very encouraging.

SPAIN The Spain Mission began the year 1920 by granting a much-needed increase of about twenty-five per cent in salary to all the native workers, through the increase made in the annual appropriation to the mission. Prices in Spain have rapidly risen, as in all parts of the world, and it was only thus that the work could be kept from deteriorating and the preachers and teachers from leaving their churches and their schools to seek a living through secular employment. Six churches and fourteen day schools have had an uninterrupted year in their work. In Bilbao, one of the very large industrial cities on the north coast, the laboring class there in the shipyards, iron mines, and steel works have shown a special interest in the message of the gospel. The entire district is strongly atheistic. The men are wholly out of touch with Roman Catholicism, and unfortunately, because they have never seen or known any other form of Christianity, they believe themselves to be wholly out of touch with the religion of Jesus Christ. It is easy to enter into conversation with these men on religious subjects, and to arrange for religious talks in clubrooms which are organized primarily for political purposes. The girls’ school at Barcelona, which carries pupils into collegiate work, has been filled to its capacity with 135 girls. These girls are from Protestant families from all parts of Spain, and even from some foreign countries; but in addition to these, there are many children from the most respectable families in Barcelona. It is in this school that teachers are trained, and from these pupils the pastors choose their wives, who prove to be most efficient workers wherever they are Survey of the Fields 33

located. There is a call for a similar school for boys, in order to train young men especially for evangelistic work among their people.

Union Training Institute The American Board mission is contemplating co-operation with the Irish Presbyterian mission and other missionary societies working in Spain in the establishment of a union theological training school in the city of Madrid. The great lack of evangelistic work in Spain has been adequate schools for the training of the young men for that service. The Irish Presbyterians have already a small school in Madrid, upon the foundation of which the union school may be constructed. In the American Board schools in Spain there are, therefore, nearly one thousand boys and girls receiving instruction in the gospel message as taught by Jesus Christ, and thus the seed is being sown in the hearts of those who will in the future, become leaders in the country.

THE BALKAN MISSION We use the name “ Balkan Mission” for want of a better term.r The four distinct nationalities included in this mission group, poli­ tically and racially, have little in common. By blood, the Serbs and the Bulgars are relatives, but by the fortunes of war that blood has become bad. The Greeks and the Bulgarians and the Serbs and the Bulgarians are perhaps the nearest hostile to each other, but it is not anticipated that .this will eventuate in any outbreak, but the reverse. This group of stations cannot be organized into a compact mission, 1 owing to national difficulties. In Albania, Mr. and Mrs. Kennedy* have held on alone in Kortcha, which has changed hands during the year, passing from Greek to Albanian control. This has made com­ munication difficult with the outside world. They have conducted a school for both boys and girls, kept up regular preaching service with Sunday school, Christian Endeavor Society, and a woman’s organiza­ tion. The boys and young men are eager to study. All available space in the buildings is occupied for school and religious services, and still the people come. Mr. Kennedy, writing in May, says: “ How these Albanians love America! They have their faces towards civil and religious light. These fields are white and ready.” A new missionary family is 34 Survey of the Fields

immediately demanded, to be associated with the Kennedys for a year before they must retire, on account of greatly impaired health. In Salonica the Greeks, as they come to know our purpose and work, are taking an attitude of cordiality. The schools in Salonica are filled, as is also the agricultural and industrial school, three miles outside the city. The latter is a boarding school under Dr. House, founder and president. The King of Greece visited the school in person a year ago, accompanied by the governor general of the pro­ vince, and there expressed his deep appreciation of the work of the school and all that the Americans were doing in that country. The church in the city should be strengthened by increasing the capacity of the intermediate schools and by starting a boarding school for girls. Monastir is the only station of the American Board in Serbia. A few months ago the governor of that district urged that the Board open two more stations in Serbia at more central points, at the same time protesting against lessening the work there. The city suffered much, during the war, from fire and bombardment, and the mission premises and the church were hit by more than a dozen high-explosive shells; yet no one on the premises was injured. Two new appointees have been sent out to relieve Miss Matthews, and an ordained man is now imperatively needed to take supervision of the evangelistic work among the churches. This is the first missionary work conducted in Serbia by the American Board, and has been begun by Serbia taking over one of our missionary stations. Bulgaria got in wrong in the war. This is realized now by all, as it was by a large majority at the outset. It was but another case of a royal family with blood affiliations with Germany, and with a location that rendered her the easy prey to hereditary foes. The country has now settled down to the practice of the art of peace. She is setting an example to the world of conscripting her young men, not for purposes of war, but for the promotion of public works in the in­ terest of the entire country. Absolute religious liberty is guaranteed to all in the country. The king and all officials of the government are especially cordial towards America, because of what America has done in introducing into the country modern education and in insisting upon the teaching of morals as of even greater importance then mere book learning. The missionary church in Sofia has been packed with eager listeners, and is raising 500,000 francs to enlarge its plant for a vastly wider Survey of the Fields 35 influence along social lines. The visit last year of two American Board representatives was the occasion at Sofia and at Samokov for the utterance of the deepest appreciation of the government of what the American Board and its missionaries have done in helping Bulgaria to a higher conception of moral values. As an expression of the feeling of the country, it is of interest to note that on the 12th of June, 1920, the National Assembly of Bulgaria, in Extraordinary Session, granted to the American Board Mission in Bulgaria, without the right of condemnation, a plot of land selected by the mission close by the capital, Sofia, containing some fifty acres, for the erection thereon of an American gymnasium. The only condition attached is that within a period of three years from the date of that action a construction of really modern model institutions, with all equipments, shall be begun. For years the plan has been discussed of moving the two schools at Samokov down to the vicinity of the capital. These schools have outgrown the present location, while the changed conditions in the country almost demanded closer relations to the rapidly growing capital of the empire. This step was strongly favored and urged by Bulgarian officials. The above reported act is an assurance of their sincerity, as well as the desire of the people themselves. The Balkan field is upon the borders of Europe, and covers what has been a political storm center. Our mission occupies a place of sur­ passing importance, and in the judgment of many, of vital significance. We are there and well intrenched in the confidence of all classes, and are in a position to advance along every department of work, if only the men and the funds can be supplied. Did not the Lord place the Board in these important fields for a time like this?

TURKEY The old boundaries of the three missions in Turkey are much broken up through fundamental changes in the fortunes or misfortunes of political conditions. In the Transcaucasus, the American Board has some ten missionaries at the present time engaged in various forms of relief and missionary work. These are located in Tiflis, the capital of the new Republic of Georgia; in Erivan, the capital of the Republic of Armenia in the Transcaucasus; and in Alexandropol. In these areas there are concentrated the great bulk of the 300,000 Armenian refugees who fled early in the war from Van, Bitlis, and Erzroom, and 36 Survey of the Fields even from regions as far south as HarpoQt. Schools are now being opened among these refugees in the Transcaucasus, and preaching services are regularly conducted. Thus our former Turkish field has been extended to the north and the east, and already includes parts of the Republic of Georgia, all of the Armenian Republic, with a free field to the Caspian Sea, across the Tartar Republic of Azerbaijan. Some of this area was formerly a part of the Eastern Turkey Mission, but in 1878, when these sections were ceded to Russia, the government refused to allow the American missionaries to visit this part of the mission field. The reoccupation of this territory, with the new terri­ tory added, increases the population of the American Board field in the Near East by at least five millions.

Mardin Transfer The Mardin station, situated in Northern Mesopotamia, and the only station of the American Board where the Arabic language is used, has been transferred to the Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions. The Presbyterian Board has its headquarters in Beirut, and is opening another station for the Arabic-speaking people of Aleppo. Mardin has no natural connection, racially or linguistically, with the Board stations to the north and west. The Bagdad railroad connects the city of Mardin directly with the Arabic-speaking fields to the south, where its affiliations naturally are found. This step was taken upon the repeated recommendations of the Eastern Turkey Mission, and is without question in the interests of more effective and economic administration. The missionaries of the American Board who desire to do so are left free to affiliate themselves with the Presbyterian Board.

Relief Work All the missionaries of the American Board in Turkey have been forced to give themselves to a large degree to aiding in relief work, : and especially in the care of the large number of orphan children. The missionaries had the language and knew the people of the country, and it was inevitable that the Relief Committee, with headquarters in Constantinople, should look to them for the general direction of their relief operations. The relief work is not, however, divorced from direct missionary work. All of the varied populations of the country look upon the tender care of the destitute children and the giving of food to the starving refugees as distinctly Christian in its character. The Survey of the Fields 37

Mohammedans look upon this work as the practical demonstration of Christianity, not only in those who give for its support, but in those who administer relief on the field. It is inevitable that some of the older orphans will gradually take their places in mission schools, while others will graduate through the industrial plants and trade schools into artisans of various types much needed in the country at the present time.

Colleges at Work Five of the American Board colleges in Turkey have been in opera­ tion throughout the year — Anatolia College, at Marsovan; the Inter­ national College and the American Collegiate Institute, at Smyrna; St. Paul’s College, at Tarsus; and the Central Turkey College for Girls, at Marash. All of these graduated classes in June and began the present school year in September. The remaining American Board colleges and most of the high schools have carried on no regular work, although this does not include the girls’ schools in Adana, Marsovan, Sivas, and Cesarea. The college buildings of Euphrates College, at Harpoot, have been used for orphan and relief work, and the college buildings at Aintab have been used for military purposes by the British and later by the French.

Language School Nearly all of the missionaries who have formerly been in Turkey have returned, and missionaries either for permanent or for term ser­ vice have been appointed, and the most of these are already at their posts. ( For the new missionaries, a school for the study of the languages used in Turkey has been opened in Constantinople, under the leadership of Mr. Fred F. Goodsell. Hitherto there has been no regular method of aiding the new missionary appointed to Turkey in the study of the language he was to use in his work. The need of systematic prepara­ tion in the language has been keenly felt. In view of the disturbed condition of the work at the present time, it seemed to be a most fitting occasion for beginning the language school, and Constanti­ nople appeared to be the logical place for it, since it could be carried on there in conjunction with the Young Men’s Christian Association and thé Young Women’s Christian Association; and will probably be patronized later, as in Peking, China, by the embassies, for the purpose 38 Survey of the Fields

of teaching the young clerks and secretaries the vernaculars. It is essential that as soon as the interior of Turkey becomes politically quiet, we should have a force of new missionaries to go into different parts of the country and begin at once the work of reconstruction and reorganization.

Hadjin Siege The most tragic of all tragic experiences of the year centers in Hadjin. In early February, Miss Edith Cold and Miss Alice Clark, together with three women relief workers and one man, were located in Hadjin. When the siege of Marash began, the situation at Hadjin became critical. It is largely an Armenian city, and Armenians came in from surrounding villages for its defence. Very soon thereafter the siege of Hadjin began, and from that time until early July it was impossible to secure any positive information from any source what­ ever as to the situation there. Attempts were made through the State Department in Washington, the British, French, and American Embassies at Constantinople, the French officers as well as the Turk­ ish officers in Cilicia, and even through Mustapha Kemal Pasha, whose capital is in Angora, and who is in charge of the attacking forces. Reports were current that all the Armenian women and children and the Americans had been killed. From the 10th of March until the 13th of June, these Americans were absolutely shut off from the rest of the world, and were prisoners in the hands of the wild tribes that were attacking the Armenians who had fortified the town. For two months these American women were absolutely in the hands of the attacking forces. On the 13th of June, they were hastily taken out of the city and transported to Cesarea, a three days’ journey over the mountains, and the mission premises were burned. There are few if any more thrilling experiences in mission history than the prolonged days of isolation, uncertainty, and personal peril through which these American workers passed. Every one of them deserves a medal for unflinching bravery.

Moslem Inquirers Reports coming from different parts of the entire area occupied speak of a marked change in the attitude of the Mohammedans i toward Americans and toward Christianity. This is due in part, unquestionably, to the disrupted state of Mohammedanism as repre- Survey of the Fields 39 sented in Turkey. Confidence has been lost in the Caliph of Islam, who is now in the hands of the Allies in Constantinople, and a realizing sense that Mohammedanism hardly seems destined to become a dominant militant religion. ( On the other hand, these people have' seen what Christianity is doing for the saving of life and ameliorating the sad condition of the various populations in Turkey) and it is not surprising that the Mohammedans and the Kurds should be unusually friendly toward Americans and the message which they bring. There is an increasing number of inquirers, and not a few outstanding con­ versions among them.

Political Unrest The political unrest of the country is universal, extending from the JEgean Sea to the Caspian. Smyrna, under the Greeks, seems to have settled down to quietness and order; but eastward across the entire country, down through Syria, there is universal unrest, and in Syria and parts of Asia Minor there is actual fighting between the Nationalist forces that hold the country and the English, Greek, and French forces that are trying to gain control. When the Nationalist forces have been overcome, then it is expected the Allies will pacify the country, restoring order and establishing a government that will mean peace and good order. Turkey, as a whole, presents an exclusive and a unique field for the work of the American Board. Its large population, with their well-known native ability, great capacity for reorganization and re­ covery after sweeping disaster, gives every reason to expect that as soon as order can be secured, the development will be rapid and fundamental.

INDIA AND CEYLON

Governmental Reforms Political events occupied a central place in the interest of Indian leaders throughout the year, and are profoundly affecting missions and the Indian church. Serious outbreaks, especially in the Punjab, which took place in 1919, were suppressed by the strong hand of martial law. The “ Amritsar affair,” where hundreds of men, women, and children were shot down, stirred the Indian people to large de- 40 Survey of the Fields mands. Then there came the Caliphate movement in India, to prevent Turkey’s being deprived of her territory. The result of this, as of the Amritsar affair, has been to decrease the prestige of Great Britain in India, to spread an insidious distrust of her humanity and fairness, and indirectly to affect somewhat the general influence of Western missionaries. We are glad, however, that there is another side of this picture. A bold, far-reaching reform measure, giving Indians wide control of affairs, was passed by Parliament in December of 1919, and is bound to mark an epoch in the modern history of India. There is a strong movement among Indian leaders in favor of turning their energies away from destructive agitation to the constructive work of exercising the large grants of political power recently made by the British Parlia­ ment. These powers give every opportunity for India to demonstrate her ability, to learn by mistakes, and to secure “ the progressive realiza­ tion of responsible government in India” which Great Britain has definitely promised. It is a healthy and promising sign of the times that Indian Christians are more and more identifying themselves with India’s political life. Perhaps there is no place today where personal Christian work will yield more important results than among Indian political leaders. In mission and church affairs, as well as in India’s political life, there was bound to be a difficult adjustment. By the old method, the missionary was predominant in all important matters. Indian Christians are now demanding their birthright of control in Christian affairs. They are taking the lead in church and evangelistic work, and in many other ways. Within the church there has sprung up a small party of extremists who would like to bundle the missionaries, bag and baggage, out of the land. Missionaries are being criticized for not having, long since, done more to Indianize their work. Even so able and balanced a leader as Mr. K. T. Paul has written an article strongly attacking the boarding-school system of the missions as a denationalizing agency founded on Western methods and controlled by Western influences. These criticisms are signs of healthy life in the Indian church. The new nationalism, by arousing the native church, has multiplied many- fold the agencies of Christian progress in India. The American Board’s missions in India and Ceylon, while sharing in the common unrest and criticism, have not been subjected to its Survey of the Fields 41 most severe attacks. This is because it has been their outspoken policy for many years to secure the devolution of responsibility from foreigners to Indians. It was gratifying to have the leading Nationals of one of our Indian missions report unanimously to an outside com­ mittee which interviewed them privately and confidentially that they felt strongly the need of a greatly increased force of foreign mission­ aries. The report of this committee says, “ There was no adverse criticism of the American missionaries as a class, but, on the contrary, an expression of much appreciation of them.” In the general movement of devolution, the Marathi Mission has this year made a great stride forward. It has founded the “ Mission Council,” in which many representative Indians have equal vote and voice with the missionaries, and which has the ultimate control of all mission matters other than the personal affairs of the missionaries. In its first meeting, the General Council put itself on record as desiring that the Church Council, which now has full charge of the churches, should gradually take over much of the work which for the present is to be carried on by the General Council. This is right in principle. The indigenous church is the institution which all other agencies must strengthen and magnify. The Madura Mission has already a Church Council, which controls not only ecclesiastical affairs, but also elemen­ tary education in the districts. This year the mission has greatly in­ creased the Indian voice in the management of higher educational institutions. An Educational Council has been established for the Pasumalai High and Training School, and another for the Union Theological Seminary, of Pasumalai. These councils have wide powers, and in them are representatives of the churches as well as of the Indian Staff of these institutions. In the Ceylon Mission, also, the Church Council is taking on increasing responsibilities; and the vernacular educational work, which forms an unusually large part of the effort of the mission, has been put under the Board of Education, in which representative Tamils have a full voice.

Church Union There has been a great deal of discussion of church union in India during this past year, and especially in the area covered by the South India United Church, which includes both our Madura and our Ceylon Missions. Conferences have been held between representative leaders, not only of the Protestant churches, but of the Anglican 42 Survey of the'Fields

churches as well, and even of the so-called Syrian Christian churches, whose historical connection is with the Eastern church. Though no actual union of these different bodies has been consummated, the very fact that they have come together in such conferences and have found many points of agreement is a long step in advance. In many mis­ sionary institutions, union effort is increasing. The Union Training School, of Ahmednagar, has pupils from more denominations than ever before. The Ahmednagar Seminary, which recently became a Union Theological College, is attracting pupils from many churches. In Ceylon, the different missions have been working in increasingly close co-operation in educational matters. Mission News During the year, the regular agencies of mission work have gone on with increasing effectiveness. Schools and hospitals have been filled; literature has had an eager reading; there has been a manifest friend­ liness toward the Christian message on the part of outcaste groups, progressive leaders of the aroused middle classes, and thoughtful high caste leaders, some of whom see in Christ’s message of brotherhood and in his dynamic personality the hope of India in this new day. In all the work of the missions for the year, an element of vital im­ portance was the increased appropriations sent out by the Board. High prices had made the living conditions of most of our Christian workers almost impossible. We were losing many of the best of them. The addition which was made to their pay, small as it was, increased the loyalty and effectiveness of our entire staff of workers. In all of the missions, there has been a general overhauling of mis­ sion policies and the laying down of certain principles of effective action, o The Survey Committee of the Marathi Mission has made specific recommendations looking toward greater concentration of the mission’s efforts. It was found that much of the work was too far scattered to receive adequate supervision. The mission, too, is seeking to conserve its influence gained through hospital and school in its two principal centers, Bombay and Ahmednagar, by means of “ community houses.” The community house in Bombay is to be a substantial building ad­ joining our large and progressive Bombay church. It should furnish a remarkably fine center for all sorts of community work for the dense population all about. The Madura Mission has decided to make efforts for the economic uplift of the people, first, through a vocational department of the Survey of the Fields 43

Pasumalai High School; and second, through the establishment of a co-operative society to establish co-operative credit and other allied agencies for the uplift of the villages. Already the mission is paying part of the salaries of three trained workers for the promotion of the work of this Co-operative Society. In Ceylon, the mission has felt forced to a careful survey of its entire village school system by an announcement of the governor of the island, which proved to be premature, but which was none the less startling to all who were maintaining schools in the island, that the government intended to take over the entire work of primary education. It turned out that the government did not intend for years to come to interfere with successful and well-established schools; yet, in view of the pronouncement, the mission has graded its schools into: first, those most essential; second, those that it would try very hard to maintain; and third, those which it w.ould be most ready to give up. The Ceylon Mission has been able, during the year, to build several good buildings for village schools, which has greatly increased their efficiency. Jaffna College and the Uduvil Girls’ School have also added substantially to their equipment. The new Jones Memorial Hostel fills a great need in the equipment of the Union Theological Seminary, at Pasumalai. Christians on the west side of Madura are rejoicing in the prospect of an adequate new church. A fine blind-school building has been completed in Bombay. The greatest advance for the year in the way of buildings is the splendid hospital for women and children in Madura, which for site, planning, and accommodation is probably the finest in South India. A piece of mission work which has especially come to the attention of government authorities this year is the large industrial settlement for Criminal Tribes at Sholapur, Marathi. The record of the year in this settlement of 3,500 people has been, in general, most encouraging. The especial thing which brought the commendation of Government was the behavior of the Criminal Tribesmen during the great mill strike at Sholapur. The government expected trouble and sent special military forces to Sholapur; but to the surprise of all, the settlement workers proved to be the most docile and peaceable of all the mill workers. The superintendent of the settlement, Mr. Strutt on, was able to do a great deal to help in ending the strike. In recognition of this service, he was awarded by the Crown the Kaiser-I-Hind silver 44 Survey of the Fields medal. In Ceylon, our missionaries have gained much prestige by the prominent part they have played in efforts to close liquor shops. These efforts were madeagainst the will of local government authorities, but brought unusual opportunities for fellowship with native leaders and gave the missionaries great popularity with them. Again have our missions been honored by being asked to send one of their number for the supervision of the large Basil Mission on the Malabar coast. Last year it was Mr. Banninga who carried out this important responsibility. This year, Mr. Dickson, of the Ceylon Mis­ sion, has taken charge. This is a large and intricate responsibility, of great importance to the progress of Christianity in India.

JAPAN At the beginning of the year under review, the most pressing ques­ tion with the Japan Mission, administratively or otherwise, was the financial one. Prices had leaped forward with unprecedented bound. Japanese workers were being drawn away into other lines of effort. The ability of the missionaries themselves to do their work was so severely hampered as to cause demoralization almost. Some of the missionaries had to resort to special effort to make both ends meet. The Board came to the rescue, as soon as possible, with a large bonus for the missionaries and with a substantial increase for the Japanese asso­ ciates. Later on in the year, an extra bonus was given the missionaries. This has brought relief, but the prices continue to soar and the situation remains a very critical one. It is unfortunate that at this time, when Japan is opening so to Christian work, such a financial situation should face the mission.

Industrial Opportunity Japan, in general, has not changed much from the conditions of last year. There has been something approaching an industrial panic in certain circles, though Japan itself seems to be in sound financial con­ dition generally. This rapid expansion, industrially and commer­ cially, has opened up avenues of Christian approach such as perhaps the mission has not faced for many years. The call for missionary work in industrial circles is unprecedented. The plans of the mission for this kind of work are necessarily inadequate; at the same time, a step forward has been taken, in the mind of the mission at least, for the development of work in industrial centers like Osaka and Kobe.

Publicity Plan

The mission has felt so keenly the need of arousing the churches of America to its opportunities and needs that it has put into operation an extensive plan of publicity. A sustained interest of the home con­ stituency is solicited. Recruits are pleaded for to fill the gaps of the mission and to push the Christian movement at this crucial hour in the empire. The mission also seeks to effect a better understanding between the American and the Japanese people through the secular press.

Doshisha’s New Era

Any review of the work of the past year among the Congrega­ tional churches of Japan must record as of first importance the inau­ guration, April 16, 1920, of Rev. Dr. Danjo Ebina as president of Doshisha. This brings into great prominence in the Christian educa­ tional world in the Far East a man eminent as a Christian preacher, of world-wide experience, liberal mind and spirit, and an ardent be­ liever in Doshisha, his Alma Mater. In his inaugural address, Dr. Ebina emphasized the four ideals set forth by the founder, Dr. Neesima: character, democracy, internationalism, and respect for women. He further called upon the student body to co-operate for the realization of ideals for the attainment of which, in Doshisha, no one man could be equal. The business administration of Doshisha will be greatly strength­ ened by the coming of Mr. Ashikaga, a very able man, a lineal descend­ ant of the old Ashikaga family of Shoguns; a man who has come from a successful career as manager of a bank, making the change because of his love for Doshisha. New government regulations concerning universities have occa­ sioned much thought in Doshisha during the year, the problem being to meet the perfectly proper requirements of the government for the recognition of the institution as a university with full standing. Before the formal charter of recognition was given, the school was advised to prepare to open the spring term according to the plans presented in the application. This was done and the charter received, so that two entering classes were admitted in the spring. Last fall it was thought that it would be necessary to have a very considerable en­ dowment desposited with the government, but it turned out that the 46 Survey o f the Fields recognition as a university was given without imposing any such conditions. Governmental recognition of Doshisha as a “ University” was formally given on the 15th of April, just before Dr Ebina’s inau­ guration, and just before the opening of the new school year. For years, Doshisha has had the privilege of using the name “ Daigaku” as a courtesy title; but now, under the new law, it receives the status of a full Daigaku, with the right of conferring degrees. This recogni­ tion has been given Doshisha apparently on the basis of its past record and its present resources. The word “ Daigaku” will commonly be translated “ University,” though the Doshisha Daigaku is rather more like what we call a college in America. No doubt this new dignity of Doshisha has aided in drawing students to it for the new school year. The influx was overwhelming. Counting the students in the Girls’ Department, as well as those in the various departments for boys and young men, the total enrollment is 2,684. At least a thousand applicants were turned away. It is interesting to note that the first large-sized building ever given to Doshisha by a Japanese has now been dedicated. It is the new library, a handsome building on a con­ spicuous site. We trust that this is but a beginning of many such bequests to this important institution, founded by Neesima and the American Board.

Kobe College Kobe College has been overcrowded, as usual. There is a big plan on foot for the purchase of new land and the erection of buildings on or near the old site in the city. Kobe College is run by a Board of Managers, consisting of nine Americans and four Japanese. It is supported by the Woman’s Board of the Interior. Kobe College has reached a point where only large investments of money will save it from loss of prestige and power. The proportionate growth of the academy and college since 1917 has been remarkable. In the year 1918-19, the college increased considerably over thirty per cent, while the academy was increased a little over ten per cent. The following year the academy remained about the same, while the college member­ ship nearly doubled. There is an enrollment now, in all departments of Kobe College, of a little under 500 students.

Japan’s Call Japan still cries out for missionary service. In the words of Rev. Survey of the Fields 47

Akira Ebizawa, a representative of the Kumiai churches at the International Council: "W e are now facing the days of promise, in which we are to reap great harvests. If we could only have more foreign missionaries, we would be able to do a much greater work in Japan and among all the peoples of the Orient To Christianize Japan means to Christianize the whole Orient. I appeal to you to answer this challenge. Let us plan according to the magnitude of the task.” MICRONESIA The only work now conducted by the Board in Micronesia is that confined to the Marshall Island Group, with the Island of Kusaie added, though it technically belongs to the Caroline group. At the beginning of the war, the field passed from German hands into those of Japan. A readjustment in the situation has been necessary, and it points more and more toward identifying the work in Micronesia with the work of the Japan Mission. The time has not arrived for turning the field over to our Kumiai friends. The Board must hold to its task. Japanese Mission The Japanese government, finding that some thirty-five churches and more than thirty regularly appointed Christian workers and several thousand church members in the Carolines had been suddenly deprived of spiritual leadership when Germany was driven from the Island, turned to the Kumiai churches to see if they could not supply the Christian leaders required. Those churches could not take on this missionary task in addition to what they were doing in Korea, Man­ churia, and Formosa; so an undenominational society was organized, under the leadership of Dr. Kozaki, a Kumiai leader in Tokyo. Three Japanese families have been sent as missionaries, one to Ponape and two to Truk. The fact that the government is the financial backing of the enterprise may seem strange to American readers. It is an administrative move. The government, simply in order to meet a peculiar religious situation, has taken the line of least resistance in first invoking the aid of a group of Christians in Japan.

Deputation to the Marshalls A deputation of Japan missionaries, Dr. and Mrs. Hilton Pedley, was sent to the Islands, in February, to observe conditions there and 48 Survey of the Fields to make a report tp the Prudential Committee. They returned to Japan on the 9th of April. En route to the Marshalls they touched at the old Board centers, Truk and Ponape; they also visited Kusaie. They found the missionaries giving themselves without stint to the work, under “ conditions that would test the strongest nerves,” the three ladies standing by the Board and by their native associates several years beyond the time their furloughs were due. The churches were functioning as usual, the regular meetings being maintained under native pastors or evangelists, with good congregations in attend­ ance. The workers seemed scarce, however, and the lack of a touring missionary was keenly felt. The closing up of the school in Mejuro, due to the typhoon of 1918, has left the one school at Kusaie responsible for all the training for the whole field. Some sixty pupils were in attendance, about half of them from the Marshalls, the remainder from the Island of Kusaie. The time of the ladies was wholly occupied with the superintendence of the domestic life of the students, including the provision of food, clothing, etc., the regular teaching in the school, and such Bible, hymn book, and other publishing work as the small printing press permits. The deputation urges the appointment of another missionary family to take the place of Mr. Maas, retired; a large increase in funds for the general work; a new" boat to take the place of the old one, almost defunct; and one missionary family, at least, for agricul­ tural work in connection with the Kusaie school. It is of the opinion, too, that larger provision should be made for the general education of the people. PHILIPPINES Mindanao, the American Bpard’s assigned share of the task of Christianizing the Philippine Islands, is the second largest island of the group, and is about the size of the State of New York. Its total population is not far from one million, all under the flag of the United States, and an integral part of our country. This is the only mis­ sionary work carried on by the Board in American territory, and, strange to say, the most of this work in the island is among people as savage and as pagan as are found in any part of the world.

The Three Classes There are three distinct classes of people for whom the missionaries of the Board are directing their efforts. These are: — Survey of the Fields 49

The Visayans, upon the north coast, a progressive, civilized people, thousands of whom have broken away from the Catholic Church and are in a receptive attitude towards evangelical Christianity. These welcome the missionaries, listen gladly to their message, and are ready to co-operate. The center for work among this class is at Cagayan, upon the north coast. The pagan tribes, of many names and varying degrees of savagery, occupy the hill countries in the interior, and are more difficult to reach. They speak different languages and dialects, and many of them are veritable wild men, yet to be tamed. The larger numbers are in the vicinity of Davao, upon the southern half of the island. Most en­ couraging beginnings have been made among several of these tribes, who have accepted schools for their children and show an encouraging friendliness. The Moros invite and command our attention. They are the Mohammedans of the Philippines, and the only Moslems under the rule of the United States. They are an ancient and virile people, numbering a quarter of a million, who have accepted government schools for both their boys and their girls. They are probably the most progressive in spirit of any Moslem race, and less bound by the traditions and laws of their religion. Already encouraging beginnings have been made among them, sufficient to reveal what can be done if we only take up the work in earnest. They are our wards.

Union Training

Because of good government schools we do not need to support general education among any of these classes. It is only among the wild tribes, where the government has not yet been able to secure a foothold, that we use, and effectively, the educational approach. We are bound, however, to train the workers and leaders from among these three classes for the work of evangelism and as pastors of the churches organized. For this purpose, we already have in Silliman Institute, with which we co-operate, a Presbyterian school of marked excellence, upon an island off the north coast. Some sixty students from our mission our studying there. We also are co-operating in the Union Theological Seminary in Manila, where a more complete theological training is given to men of proven worth and capacity. 50 Survey of the Fields

Call for Doctors In Davao, the mission hospital has treated and cared for over ten thousand patients during the year. There is an insistent demand for opening medical work at Cagayan. When the funds are adequate, the Board will open this second medical centre. The Moros, too, would be wonderfully influenced by the presence among them of a Christian physician. Our work in Mindanao is calling mightily for enlarged medical work, not only for the native populations, but for the increasing number of Chinese and Japanese; greater facilities for training native Christian young men and women to meet the calls for Christian workers, and an additional American force to organize and supervise the for­ ward movement that is already on.

MEXICO Last, but of special interest to America, is Mexico. What of the night? That land by no means has recovered from the blight of revolution; yet outwardly, at least, order has been restored under a stronger régime, business is beginning to boom, and international relationships are improving. All foreigners working for the best interests of the Mexican people are cordially welcomed, and mission work is apparently acceptable. At any rate, no limitations to our work have resulted from Mexico’s change of masters. The “ West Coast” (along the Gulf of California), where our newest field lies, is opening for trade with America. “ Yankees” are pushing in, why not missionaries? The field calls for at least three flourishing stations, with boarding schools and a corresponding system of day schools. An agricultural institute is of prime importance. But the mission refuses to be downhearted. It is showing an earnest purpose to use to the best advantage what small force and equipment it has. At its last annual meeting it voted to undertake a Forward Movement, aiming primarily for the full evangelization of the field within the next five years. The Mexicans associated with the mission have taken hold with enthusiasm, and everybody seems de­ termined to cover the states of Sonora, Sinaloa, Nayarit, Colima, and Jalisco with the gospel of Jesus Christ. A monthly bulletin is to be issued as a means of “ educating, stimulating, and informing” the brethren throughout the mission’s immense territory. Their motto is “ Mexico for Christ.” Survey of the Fields 51

Considerable progress has been made on the work of exchanging properties with the Methodists, South. The fields and responsibilities were exchanged two years ago, but property valuations, tranference of titles, etc., have remained on the docket. Early in the year, Dr. James D. Eaton, of Los Angeles, a former treasurer of the Mexico Mission, did the Board a great service by inspecting the properties in Mexico. As a result of his work, the details of transfer have been worked out most satisfactorily for both parties, and as soon as the Methodists can secure the necessary recognition under Mexican law, the actual exchange of titles will take place. Meanwhile they will pay interest upon the $10,915 which they owe the Board. It is a cause of gratification that they have been able already to build upon the foundations laid by our mission in Chihuahua. May we do as well with what we took over from them!

CHINA China has endured another year of commotion. It brought over the civil strife that during the preceding twelvemonth harried those provinces, like Fukien, where northern and southern armies clashed. This year it was Shaowu’s turn to feel the disturbance, as Ingtai felt it before. Then at the capital this summer affairs become so critical that the country was plunged into another war. The “ red-hot spot” was in Peking, where the rival parties aligned for the conflict; but all China was concerned in the struggle, which turned upon the supremacy of one or another military faction. The party that has been in the saddle was defeated, its leaders were driven into hiding, and its armies disbanded. As it was commonly understood to be pro-Japanese, and dependent for its existence upon funds loaned by Japan, its defeat is regarded as a triumph for China’s liberty and democracy. Fortunately none of these political overturnings seem to block the Christian move­ ment in the land, which goes steadily on, winning new friends, wider attention, and larger influence with each added year.

Student Outreach The patriotic zeal of the students, indeed, has created some diffi­ culty for the educational work of the missions. It has required great wisdom and tact to determine where to yield and where to stand firm; interruptions in the term’s routine occurred at several of the higher schools, as at Peking and Foochow; some of the students had to be 52 Survey of the Fields disciplined. It has been in these ways an anxious and a burdened year for the educators. Yet the student uprising has wrought incal­ culable good, and that not only by evoking the spirit of genuine pa­ triotism. It has stirred a desire in a multitude of youthful hearts to serve their country’s welfare. This desire has expressed itself in peaceful channels as well as in more violent ways; it has inspired cam­ paigns of social service. Peking has seen the largest and most ambitious of these undertakings. The Student Union, made up from the 14,265 students of the fifty-four high schools and colleges of that city, devised a plan for the education of all the poor of the city through night schools to be taught by the students. The Peking Christian Student Work Union has districted its territory, divided its lines of effort, and apportioned responsibility among missions and churches for a systematic and comprehensive work. The American Board, through its missionary and his Chinese co-workers who are assigned to the task, is vigorously carrying its share of the load. The mission­ ary’s home, in a Chinese house inside the Imperial City, has been an open house for student gatherings and a center of inspiration for the best student life. This student outreach in patriotic service was widespread. Six mission girls from Paotingfu region, who had been at the Peking acad­ emy, during their summer vacation divided into two companies, and for forty days traveled and lectured against footbinding, and in behalf of education of girls and of patriotism, at 120 villages and cities.

China-for-Christ Movement Hand in hand with this enlarging sense of responsibility for their countrymen’s physical, social, and civil welfare, has developed among the Christian Chinese a more eager concern for their evangelization. The China-for-Christ movement was bom in the hearts of some Chinese pastors ; it has gradually passed largely into the direction of the Chinese. It is winning the enthusiastic support of Christian students, of pastors and churches; is expressing and re-enforcing the aim of mission work; and is rallying all the Christian forces of China to its support. In each of the four missions of the American Board, more systematic and efficient methods of evangelism are being worked. Teams of students and pastors or evangelists, often with missionary co-workers, have gone out the past year from the centers to tour the country Survey of the Fields 53 fields; the Paotingfu region has been specially cultivated because of its incomparable responsiveness; but in all the North China districts, as in Foochow and Shaow, the year has shown marked accomplish­ ment in this line. At Canton, with the return of Mr. Nelson from furlough, an enlargement of evangelistic work has been made possible in that city, through the opening of a new chapel. Evangelistic campaigns are not only increasing in number and in scope; they are carried out with a new thoroughness; prepared, con­ ducted, and followed up in a way to insure substantial results. The following report of one such campaign conducted in the Paotingfu field will give an idea of the care with which this department of labor is now being conducted: — “ In October was held a three weeks’ retreat for study and confer­ ence with the leading evangelists, nine men with full college training or more; a period of rest, inspiration, and mental stimulus. At the close of October, after an autumn rally at the central station (Paotingfu), to which, without urging, came 200 attendants from out of town, five sectional rallies were held in the districts, with baptism and initial steps of church membership, and attendance from outside villages of from 100 to 175. Seven instruction classes for new converts followed, each of one month’s duration, four for men who could already read and three for illiterates. A new class for men of higher grade was to be formed when the work of illiterates was completed. In these classes, Chinese pastors and leaders worked side by side with the American missionaries in a delightful comradeship.” A regular and accepted agency in all this work has come to be the conferences, of which many varieties are now in operation. Summer Conferences of Workers, Student Conferences, Training Classes — by one name or another, and by one method or another, the Christian forces, present or potential, are being gathered for the best instruction that missionary intelligence and ingenuity can devise, with a view to making them successful messengers of the “ good news” to their people.

Educational Opportunity The field of education continues open to missions in China. It is still the day of opportunity, unfettered and appealing. The desire for the new education that has come from the West has spread all over China; in many sections it is importunate. Government is pressing 54 Survey of the Fields for it, planning for it, far beyond its resources to obtain. The province of Shansi is now pushing compulsory education; temples are being turned into public schools; government officials inspect them; villages are being compelled to establish schools for girls; schools for married women are being started. So eager is the need, that Chinese con­ servatism is being disregarded by the bringing of girls into schools with boys where separate provision cannot be made; and the National Education Association has recommended to the Ministry of Educa­ tion in Peking that, in so far as is possible in deference to social custom, co-education be accepted as a working plan in schools from the lower primary grade to universities and higher specialized schools, with the single exception of the industrial schools. In the midst of this nation-wide and all-embracing eagerness for education, which government resources are quite unable to meet, mission schools of all grades have their great chance. Nobody wants to hinder or to hurt them. It is the joy and pride of a village to secure one of primary grade, and of a city or capital to be the seat of a mission middle school or college. The year past has seen notable growth in these mission institutions, despite the disturbance of student "strikes.” These were never against the schools, or in rebellion against the teaching; only to express the measure of readiness to forego everything in order to register a blow for patriotism; to go forth in promotion of a boycott against Japan and a crusade against the selfishness of merchants and officials who were selling out their country. Mission high and middle schools have prospered in numbers and in quality of their work. China is pre-eminent among mission lands as a field for union in educational work. No less than five developing universities are maintained, each by from four to six denominational Boards: “West China” in Szechwan, “ Peking,” “ Shantung” at Tsinanfu, “ Nanking,” and “ Foochow.” In two of these, Peking and Foochow, the American Board is an active partner; at a third, Shantung, one of its missionaries is this year on the teaching staff. At both Peking and Foochow, the universities have been at work during the year, though they are still in temporary establishments. The Peking Woman’s College, one of the two colleges for women in China, has this year become an organic part of the university, thus carrying more American Board mission­ aries into the field of its influence. The Theological School at Canton, Survey of the Fields 55 though not connected with a university as are the other three such schools in which the Board co-operates, is yet a conspicuous example of union in missionary education, eight mission boards, including the Church Missionary Society of England, composing this partnership.

Medical Advance Medical work as a department of foreign missions has passed its initial stage in China. Hospitals and dispensaries are steadily im­ proving. The five hospitals in the North China field, at Fenchow, Taiku, Tunghsien, Lintsing, and Tehsien, have all been advanced, of late, in plant, equipment, or staff; some of them in all three directions. Lintsing has this year secured its long-sought “ man doctor;” and now another “woman doctor” is located there. Dr. Hemingway goes back from furlough to Taiku, with a hospital business manager and with gifts for the development of the woman’s ward and for recovery after a destructive fire. At Fenchow, Dr. Watson is stopped, for lack of adequate funds in these times of rising costs, in the building of the modern hospital for which he has labored for more than ten years. A new doctor and his wife, both of them doctors, indeed, are on the way to Foochow. Dr. Gillette, of Diongloh, has transferred his headquarters to Pagoda Anchorage, planning thus to widen the area of his work and increase its benefit. Medical work in China has further advanced as it has ventured forth from mission station and hospital to conduct health campaigns, introduce preventive medicine, fight plague epidemics, improve milk supplies, and promote city and district sanitation. In this way, the year has been specially busy for several of our doctors. The first graduation of young men and women students from the Nurses’ Training School, at Tehsien, was a noteworthy event of the year; its emphasis on service and sacrifice for others was an object-lesson of power to the Chinese.

In General The year covered has, like most years, had its mingled lights and shadows for our China missions. Exchange has been very disadvan­ tageous; costs have been high; revolts and fightings have disturbed the steady round of daily work; disorders, brigandage, and threaten- ings have tested patience and courage. But gains have been made that, in view of all, are surprising and exhilarating. Not only has ground 56 Survey of the Fields been held; in many directions advance has been won. The outlook is brighter even than a year ago. In writing of the year’s progress in one of the China missions, and commenting on the advance in appropriations for the work made at the beginning of the year because of the desperate need which was evidenced, our correspondent says: — “ On the whole, there has been a spirit of hope manifest that I have not seen before. It is due to the fact that we have had sufficient funds to take forward steps rather than backward. The continual closing of chapels and the dismissing of preachers, together with re­ peated refusal and inability to meet the requests for opening new work, had more or less demoralized the workers and was hindering rather than stimulating efforts to self-support.” As validating this claim, he instances the fact that the subscriptions from churches and com­ munities on the field show an increase for the year of from 15 per cent to 100 per cent. The bugle calls for advance in China,

“ For the field is set, and the hosts are met, And the Lord his own is guiding.”

CONCLUSION The tendency in all fields is to settle down again to normal con­ ditions, but not to return to a pre-war status. The minds of the most backward races have experienced an awakening that precludes the possibility of a continuance of preceding stages of indifference and inaction. A new world of international consciousness has come into being and is rapidly becoming indigenous everywhere. The Alba­ nian, the Georgian, the Turk, the Arab, the Indian, the Chinese, the Moro, not to mention the tribes and races of Africa and many other countries, have awakened from the lethargy of centuries and are begin­ ning to think of themselves as fellow-members of a common human race. “ Rights,” “ privileges,” “ needs,” “ opportunity,” as well as “responsibility.” are terms that are finding place in strange languages, and are beginning to spur men on to longings and strivings hitherto little known or even dreamed. These aspirings and awakenings from within are vastly more significant than any external appearances of modernism. The soul of Asia and Africa is beginning to pulsate with new life, and we are intrusted with the commission to make that Survey of the Fields 57

heart-beat harmonize with the great heart of our Lord Jesus Christ. We touch these peoples at a thousand centers. Shall virtue pass from us to them until they are healed?

STATISTICS

The following statistical table speaks of the strength and volume of the work of the American Board in terms of figures. These, too, have their place in the measure­ ment of human agencies. In some instances, totals are given in round numbers, since in few cases, in making up the tables, dependence has been had upon estimates. No figures for Turkey are possible. This accounts for the apparent loss for the year:

The American Board has suffered a very real loss in the resignation and subse­ quent death of M r. Frank H. Wiggin, who for many years has written and pre­ sented the Treasurer’s Report. He was Treasurer of the American Board for about twenty-four years, always faithful to his trust, and during the time he served as Treasurer the yearly receipts grew from about $650,000 to more than $1,600,000. A year ago it was stated in the report that the receipts were larger than those of the previous year. The same statement might well be made for this year. The gain for the year just ended over the previous year was $128,244.40. The follow­ ing table shows the sources from which the income has been received: —

Gifts from churches $399,890.35 Gifts from individuals 126,971.17 Matured Conditional Gifts 17,350.00 Income from General Permanent Fund 29,236.67 Income from D. Willis James Foundation and Higher Edu­ cational Work Endowment 55,354.78 Income from Miscellaneous Funds 54,405.55 Woman’s Boards 496,234.03 Sunday Schools and Christian Endeavor Societies 18,990.66 Receipts for Special Objects 158,700.81 Legacies 175,421.30 From estate of Solomon H. Chandler, for use as specified in the will 15,086.82 General Income 56, 126.20 Congregational World Movement 47,778.65

$1,651,546.99

It is interesting to note that the churches, which made a large increase in their offerings a year ago, have again made a very substantial increase in their offerings, and that the same is true of individuals. The gains from churches, Sunday Schools, and Christian Endeavor Societies amount this year to $62,790.96, and individuals contributed more this year than last year by $43,936.74. These gifts are gratefully acknowledged by the Board. This is a very encouraging fact when it is considered that during the year very large pledges were made to the Congregational World Movement. All of these pledges have not yet been paid, but the Board has already received a substantial sum on account of the same.

TWENTIETH CENTURY FUND AND LEGACIES

The wisdom of establishing the Twentieth Century Fund for the equalizing of receipts from legacies over a period of years has been proven this year. The amount received from legacies this year was $126,165.45. This is $55,385.32 less than was received from legacies in the year ending August 31, 1919. The total of the Twentieth Century Fund, including income on the Fund and legacies received during the year from estates, amounted to $526,263.90. One-third of this amount, 60 Report of the Treasurer

or $175,421.30, -was available for the Board’s work, so that from this source the Board has had available for its use $49,255.85 more than was actually received from legacies. Because of the decrease in the amount received from legacies, the Twentieth Century Fund, which showed a balance a year ago of $387,515.70, now shows a balance of $350,842.60.

CONDITIONAL GIFT FUND

The total of the Conditional Gift Fund, including the Danforth and Washburn Funds, is $1,208,781.62. Of this sum $93,822.63 represents fifty-four new Con­ ditional Gifts received during the year. More and more people are realizing the advantage of providing for themselves a regular income for life and are appreciat­ ing the certainty, afforded by the adoption of the Conditional Gift Plan, that their money will be used as they desire after their death for the work of the American Board. GENERAL PERMANENT FUND

The gain in the General Permanent Fund during the year was $6,778.83. This is much smaller than the gain for the previous year. This Fund now amounts to $579,671.76.

NEW FUNDS DURING THE YEAR

WOMAN’S BOARDS AND CANADA CONGREGATIONAL FOREIGN MISSIONARY SOCIETY

The Woman’s Boards and the Canada Congregational Foreign Missionary Society have, as usual, co-operated in the work in a very generous manner, and these Societies are entitled to a large amount of gratitude. The amounts received and expended from these sources have largely increased.

EXPENDITURES

Attention was called last year to the large increase in expenses caused by the high rate of exchange in China and the increase in transportation. While ex­ change rates were unusually high a year ago, they have increased greatly during the past year, and the cost of transportation, of both missionaries and freight, has also increased. The cost of exchange this year has been $252,449.37, and the cost of travel and outfits for missionaries has been $177,231.51.

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

A summary of the results for the year shows that the missions cost $1,731,147.86 Administration and oJier home expenses were 142,230.72 Underwriting of the Interchurch World Movement 36,000.00

Total expenses $1,909,378.58

As previously stated, the total receipts were $1,651,546.99 Amount due from Co-operating Societies in excess of amount due the previous year 8,082.17 Last year’s balance 7,205.06

Total $1,666,834.22

Total disbursements $1,909,378.58 Total receipts 1,666,834.22

$242,544.36

The Treasurer last year stated that the American Board needed annually at least $2,000,000, but with the increased cost of everything connected with the work of the Board, it is clear that a far larger sum is needed today. Notwithstanding the increase of $128,244.40 in income this past year, the Board has been obliged to close its year with a deficit of $242,544.36. So many applications of a pressing nature are coming from all parts of the world for help from the American Board, that the Board must look to its constituency for yet greater financial support if it is to meet these requests even in a small degree. This is, however, not time to be discour­ aged, but rather a time to be grateful that in spite of the troublesome conditions into which the world has been plunged, the American Board has been able, with the support of its constituency, to carry on its work without curtailment. Appended hereto is a financial statement, together with a certificate of the Ameri­ can Audit Company and a certificate of the Auditors of the American Board. Respectfully submitted, F r e d e r i c k A. G a s k i n s , Treasurer. 62 Report of the Treasurer
