PHILLIPS BROOKS HOUSE APPOINTS A COMMITTEE TO LOOK INTO MISSIONS

A committee has been appointed to investigate a number of worthy missions, with the ultimate object of their being sponsored by the Phillips Brooks House, it was announced recently by officers of that organization.

It has been suggested by the committee that Phillips Brooks House discontinue the sending of a man to teach at Roberts, Constantinople, and devote the money formerly used for that purpose to further the aims of such mission as may be selected.

The committee, composed of P. M. Shelden '31, Julius Birge, vice-president of Brooks House, and T. L. Harris, University Adviser in Religion, will try to discover a mission similar to the Grenfell mission, in order that interest may be further aroused in Harvard University in social service in foreign lands.

If a suitable recipient can be found, the sum of approximately $600, which is now being spent for the salary of the professor in Constantinople, will be devoted for aid in the field of mission service. It is also hoped that the group of Harvard students who have formerly devoted themselves independently to the Grenfell and other mission work in the summer time, may be induced to work as group on the mission finally selected by the committee.
