?N C ECUMENICAL CONFERENCE
HELD AT UNC
WCTC Represented By
Four Denominational
Groups On Campus
by Phyllis Motes
Six representatives from four
different denominational groups
at WCTC attended the first Ecumenical
Student Conference held

last week-end. The representatives
included Mr. Hodges, Disciple; Olive

Baptist. Thirty-six campuses and
about eleven denominations were

was "World Mission of the Church"
The purpose of this inter-denomj
inational conference is to draw
rviriefian c+nri??ntc tnaf?th#?r across
Vmi^UIAli MkMMV** ?M v ^
denominational barriers and create
a oneness among denominations.
The idea for such a conference was
conceived by a group of North
Carolina students who attended the
v first Ecumenical Student Conference
in the United States at Lawrenfce,
Kansas, during the Christmas
holidays of 1948.
Leonard Morgan, Chairman of
the conference Planning Committee,
opened the conference by welcoming
each Denominational
group and then each campus group.
Following the welcome, an address
on "The Task of the Church
in the World Today" was given
by Francis P. Miller, former chairman
of the World Student Christian
Federation. After lunch, student
attended discussions in vocational
groups. The vocations discussed
were medical services, law,
political science, government, education,
applied sciences, engineering,
social work, church vocations,
business and commerce,
iand art and music. In the afternoon,
John Deschner, Executive
Secretary, United Student Christian
Council, spoke on "The Responsibility
of the Christain Student."
Denominational meetings,
? -? i i
followed Dy supper, were neia in
the Baptist, Methodist, Episcopal,
and Presbyterian churches in
Chapel Hill.

Jackson 5th In Area
In Payments To Retired
Workers Under S. S. Law
Figures just released by the
Asheville field office of the Social
Security Administration show that
Jackson County ranks 5th in average
monthly payments to retired
workers, age 65 or over, in the 17
Westefh North Carolina counties
which comprise the service
area. The average monthly check '
to such workers in this county is
$21.29.
As of June 30, 1949, a total of 1713
retired workers were^on the !
benefit rolls in the area, of which 1
63 were in this county. Only
workers who have quarters from J
January 1, 1937, the effective date,
to the date they attain age 65, i
are eligible for benefits upon re- (
tirement from covered employment.
The average payment to all ?
retired workers in the area is ]
$21.87 per month.
According to D. W. Lambert, i
Manager of the Asheville office, i
benefit payments are lower in
this section because many work- <
ers are not employed full time in
self-employment, and ottfer jobs ]
do not count in figuring benefits, i
Lower wage rates are also a factor,
when compared with other
sections of the nation.
Average monthly payments,
, number of retired workers on the
, rolls, and rank of payments, by
counties, in Western North Carolina
are show in the table below:

and Demand in the United
States."
Estimates in the table are based
on the expected number of pupils
for each State. The Bureau of
Labor Statistics prepared estimates
of public day school enrollments
for each State up to 1960.
The estimates take into account
the number of births through 1948,
forecasts of births through 1953,
the trend for children to stay in
school longer, and interstate migration.
In determining the number of
aditional teachers needed each
year in each State, the increase in
enrollments was calculated and
then applied a ratio of 30 pupils
per teacher in elementary schools
and 25 pupils per teacher in high
schools. These are the highest
ratios educational authorities con

Finally, in its computations,
BLS considered the number of
teachers required to replace those
leaving the teaching profession or
transferring to other States.
In addition to reporting on the
employment outlook, the bulletin
gives information on certification
requirements and earnings in each
State.
The report initially was prepared
as a VA pamphlet for use in
the advisement and guidance of
disabled veterans in the Vocational
Rehabilitation and Education
programs.
It also has been issued as Bureau
