disciples, MRA has:

unselfishness and absolute
honesty. He drew many of his
followers from students at En-
gland's Oxford University and
the movement came to be
known as the Oxford Group, al-
though it had no formal connec-
tion with that university. In
1938 the Oxford title faded and
MRA took its place. The old
name still turns up in various
incorporation papers.

MRA does have a corps of

at Mackinac said these number
3,000 in the United States. In
some MRA literature, the 3,000
figure is applied to MRA per-
sonnel the world over.
As for money, Buchman used
to assure his followers in times
of economic stress that "God is

. tions. But We should start by
laying down, a code of discipline,
for ourselves, and then be sure
to honor it to our own advan-
tage and satisfaction. This code
of discipline should include all
phases of our lives, it. should be
realistic, honorable but not |
beyond our reasc-rble rhility
to live with
All teenagers are in search of
themselves, and, so, pertaining
to what us teenagers should do
with our ’ives, we seem to have
four principal and distinct goals
The first one being to discover
end develop our talents This is
done through education and the
application of what we learn
from education. The second goal
Hsto learn how to live decently
with other people This is ac-
complished through religion
and culture which we gain Very
targetyir our home and fam-
ily Lie. but, should it not, deli-
ver for us,, then we have to
go it alone/The third goal is to
learn good citizenship. This is
achieved by being obedient in
the home, in rchool and in
church, and in honoring and
obeying the laws of our com-
munity. Our fourth goal is to
learn how to become a produc-
tive. economir unit in our so-
. ciety so that we may become
self-supporting and care for
those who will later depend up
r.n us. rhis is gained through
applying our talents and thrpugh
industry, thrift and wise discre-
tion. Wise discretion is teamed
through the processes of intelli-
ent counseling and the reflee*
■ tion of our experiences.

mature? My parents are not
easily understood because they

seem to be able to tell me how.
I will appreciate it very much

Maturity is a relative matter,
depending very largely on our
intellectual development,
morality, emotionat restraint,
modesty, conformity and obe-
dience. A girl at 16. for instance,
may be fully mature for her age.
tut not mature enough to please
those who are older and have
reached a more experienced
maturity.
Wise parents do not want their
children to mature beyond their
years, because it robs them of
normal growth and of their
ability to adjust to their social
environment.
Many people never reach
what we like to believe is ma-
turity. They never become dig-
though MRA spokesmen, say
ret their operation runs on a shoe-
string, the record indicates that*
Buchman was usually right in
believing that someone would

mament, MRA, Inc.” It showed
that in this year corporation
had income of $2,459,906 —
$2,008,785 of it in "contribu-
tions"—and had wound up with
a balance of $1,861,53. An
MRA spokesman indicated 1964
income was around $3 million
and expenses up proportionate-
ly
The 1963 statement of worth
did not include the estimated
$3.4 million installation at
Mackinac, which became a se-
parate Michigan corporation in
1961. But it did say the New
York MRA had spent more
than half a million dollars help-
ing to run Macktnac that year.
The report did not May how
many other corporations had
been set up in MRA’s name
around the world to receive and
dispense money.
When it comes down to who
chipped in the $2 million-plus to
the New York corporation,
MRA won't say. Listing contri-
butors and the amounts of their
donations, MRA says; would be
an invasion of privacy. MRA
does Issue tables indicating that
the great majority of its contri-
butions are less than $50 or
$100.
There are some exceptions. A
pamphlet inviting contributions
to MRA mentions Dr Will Cha-
‘pin of Richmond, Va . "giving
$46,000 in 1946 to send 150 Ger-
mans to a training session at
Caux. In 1957, according to the
pamphlet, Washington attorney

Today, MRA’s main head-
quarters are a complex of ho-
tels and other buildings Ac-
quired after the war in Caux,
Switzerland and a $3.4 million
establishment on this resort is-
land in the Straits of Mackinac,
high in the northern Great
Lakes. ,
There are other centers at
Odawara, Japan, and Berkeley
Square London, and more are
planned in India and Brazil.
Also in the planning stage is a
$7 million liberal arts college at
Mackinac. There are smaller
MRA headquarters in this coun-
try in New York, Washington,
Los Angeles and Tucson, Ariz.
From this point, some hard
facts concerning MRA are har-
der to establish. In many cases,
this is not because MRA offi-
cials refuse to give the facts.
They often insist they don't
know. ■
Some of th most insistent
questions include:
— How many persons are
members of MRA?
—How much money do they
have and where do they get it?
—Is MRA a religion?
—Who runs it?
—How are leaders appointed
and to whom are they answera-
ble?
। —How do they operate?
1 —What have thev done?
MRA says it has no member-
ship rolls, because it is not an
organization but a way of life.
As Buchman put it, "There is
certain level of Moral Re-Ar-
mament in everybody. Our job"
is to raise the level.”

(UPD—On a spring day in 1938.
the year when war clouds gath-
ered and the nations busily
stockpiled arms, a SB-year-old
American clergyman walked in
the Black Forest of Germany
and had a sudden thought:
movement of moral re-ar-
mament The next great move-
meet in the world will be a
imovement of mortal re-ar-
mament for all nations.”
The clergyman was Frank
Nathan Daniel Buchman, son of
an Allentown, Pa., butcher and
a man who regarded such sud-
den thoughts as "'guidance.".
This particular inspiration sig-
naled the start of an interna-
tional movement which today
ctuims to be the ideological an-
ewer and the only answer—to
Communism.
The movement ts called Mor-
al Re-Armament, MRA for
short. Buchman was able to
bring it into being almost at '
will because he was already the
