When the present war is ended
and the world settles down to a
normal existence, there will prob-
ably be a-great movement of peo-
ples both within countries and
from country to country, in the
opinion of Dr. Mark A. Dawber,
rural expert and secretary of the
Home Missions Council of North
America. This, he says, has been
the experience after every great
upheaval, and these movements of
people are always accompanied by
depression and its trail of unrest
and poverty. He urges that the
Christian churches now serving
migrant groups in America and
elsewhere “gird themselves to meet
the new and greater demands.”
“Ministering to unrooted people is
no simple task,” says Dr. Dawber.
“Tt calls for a leadership of excep-
tional quality, well trained, and
with a sacrificial spirit.”
“The century which will come
out of this war can and must be
the century of the common man.”
