5 SOUTHERN BAPTIST GIVING IN 1957*

The estimated total income of Southern Baptists during 1957 was $13,764,963,018. A tithe of this amount would have been $1,376,496,302. $397,550,347 of this amount was given through Southern Baptist churches leaving $978,945,955 in ungiven tithe. This amount, if given, could

erect and furnish 17,472 cherch buildings similar to that of the “average" Southern Baptist church

|hbb«4I »BeBf ||a HB |[ [fl fl B

build and equip 1 30 500-bed hospitals similar to the Southern Baptist Hospital, New Orleans, Louisiana

Or, it would defray total ex penses of the Foreign Mission Board equal to those in 1957 for the nbxt seven years

If all Southern Baptists had tithed, per capita gifts would have increased to $153.50 instead of $44.34

‘Bring ye ALL the tithes . .

2,632,000 alcoholics in 1940, 5,015,000 now. Now 437,933 alcoholic beverage outlets, but only 306,893 churches and synagogues Since repeal of Prohibition amendment 25 years ago: • Crimes related to drinking—up 28.6 per cent. • Alcoholism—from 2,808 to 4,718 per 100,000 adults. • $181.9 billion spent on alcohol, or more than twice amount spent on schools. OT»: Number for a given year refers to people who have at some time sraduatod from high school (or college), not those graduating that year only. 382 persons were victims of drinking drivers during holidays last Christmas. Alcoholic beverages take four cents out of every dollar the “average" American spends. Each year, the money spent on alcoholic beverages in the United States would build and maintain a city of one million people, equipping it with adequate public buildings, schools, libraries, railway and airport ter minals, and post office, totaling $360 mil lion; and in addition would build thirty banks, forty office buildings, ten department stores, and adequate hotels, totaling $250 million; plus four hundred churches total ing $64 million; and also 250,000 homes and twenty-five apartments, totaling $316 billion; and would provide every family with an automobile. And, there would be left from the $10 billion an operational budget for the year of almost one billion dollars. How strong is America’s desire for drink! Source: Bureou of the Census
