of mounting debt and its con
gregation was wallowing in a
seeping tide of diminishing mem
bership.
Free Of Debt
Now, church chroniclers say.
the church is free of debt - since
1944 - partly through the liberal
aid of John D. Rockefeller Jr.

in 50 auxiliaries and clubs and
1,800 young people in its Sunday
school, executive of its released-

elle A. Maxwell, included nine
