School Publishing Board of U
National Baptist Convention ol 1
United States, Inc., according to un
snnouncement made here Monaa
“morning by Dr. A, M. Townsend
secretary of the Board
This campaign will take the 1o
of urging those individuals organ- |
izations, Sunday Schools, churche
and the like to pay up s
pledges made in a seven yedr cd
paign launched at the Ft. Worlh |
construction of this building, whicl
" is one of the finest owned and
operated by our group in the
world. According to Dr. Townsend
' for the first years the per centage
" of collection on these pledges wus
very gratifying and encouraginy
put during the past two years therc
" "has been a decided decrease which
. 'has worked hardships upon theswe
* secking to erase this debt from the
books of the convention.
~ Dr. Townsend made it clear thut
“‘the debt on the Publishing House,
which is known as the Morris Main
“orial Building, was not that of tie
Sunday School Publishing Bousd
alone but of the Convention. The
Sunday School Publishing Boavd
fwhich is under his direct super
vision has completed each year
*out of the red” and has borne in
the largest measure the indebted
ness of the Publishing House.
According to his report at the
special session of the National Bup
tist Convention held in Memphis
recently the net operating profit of
{ h e Sunday School Publishing
i3oard for the year ending June,
1931, was $88,949.59 with the total
ash sales amounting to more than
+189,500.
4 Appeals to All Bapiisis
In making his appeal to the 20
400 or more underwriters for pay
ments on their pledges, Dr. Town
.end stated:
The Morris Memorial Butilding
belongs to us and it is up to us to
.eep it. No one factor in the Bap
f«{ Denomination has done more
10 'gain the esteem and respect of
ither denominations a n d racial
..roups than has the erection and
wauipping of this building as well
2s the work that is being accom
plished here. We have been hard
hit by the depression with the
ciosing of the banks, sudden calls
for payment of leans and an ap
palling decrease in donations and
eoniributions, therefore, =we ure
urging person, organization o r
church to make a strenuous effort
to pay something on your pledge.
“The Sunday Publishing Board
per se, does not need this house in
order to supply the literature for
the denominaticn required of it

operate under a tent and did not
have to spend the thousands of
dollars spent in equipment. The
Baptist Sunday School Board of
the Southern Baptist Convention
{white) has been operating all of
these years and does not even own
4 piece of machinery, yet last
year's report shows that the or
ganization did business amounting
tc more than a million Aollars,
Were it not for helping to pay the
Publishing House debt our Board
would not have to appeal to any
one for one penny -
*And vet we have anolher tosk
namely, 1o train and develop our
L people in the printing art. Our
‘soung men and women have not
tiad the chance to learn the reual
printing art. nor do they have the
i wppurlunity in any lage neasure
# 10 become real bookkecpers and
accountants. Hence the necessity of
“four investing thousands of dollars
in a4 modern printing plant and of
fices where our boys and girls can
become proficient in these crafts
: and vocations. So it is up to every
* 'Baptist to answer this-appeal. Help
your denomination rehabilitate it
self and make this Memorial Build
