The report of the committee showed that from 42 colleges and universities of the church, 9,617 men had gone into military service and 6,287 more were enrolled in the Students' Army Training Corps. Candidates for the ministry drawn from the foregoing student group, it was said, left no men to replace pastors who have retired and chaplains who have gone abroad. The committee made public plans for a campaign to recruit 53,000 re-ligious workers. The recruits, 13,000 of whom will be clergymen, willi be utilized in helping to raise $80,000,000 to advance the cause of Methodism thruout the world.
