12 STEWARDSHIP YEAR URGED FOR CHURCH Preshyterian Conference Sanctions Petition to General Assembly. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, December 13.—The Na- tivnal Presbyterian Conference as it closed last night formally sanctioned a petition to the General Assembly, which will convene at Columbus, Ohlo, In 1925, to set aside the ec- clesiastic: ar 1926-7 as “steward- ship vear.”” The petition voiced the belief that greater emphasis on the teaching that possessions are a trust and possessors trustees or stewards for the Kingdom of God would mean much toward Christiznizing “the eco- nomic and soclal order.” Speakers at a conference on stew- ardship preceding this action stressed the thought that stewardship meant “not only giving part of one's in- come to the church, but application of Christian principles to the whole business of getting and spending.” The petition, formulated by the stewardship secretaries, was passed on by the committee on findings as part of its report and as such adopt- ed by the conference. “I refuse to think of money as sordid,” sald W. R. Pattcrson of New York, controller of the general council. “Half of our church” he added, “comprises congregations having less | than 100 members. These, well | as the great congregations, have a financial responsibility toward our four-fold enterprise of service pen- sions, national and foreign missions and education.” WILL CANVASS FOR FUNDS‘ 100 Members of Christinn Church | Will Visit Tomorrow.
