The Press and The Christian W o r ld Tracts for Japan This year millions of gospel tracts are to be produced and distributed in Japan at a minimum cost under a project just launched by the Ameri­ can Tract Society. The plan is to set up the printing equipment on Japa­ nese soil and turn out tracts under the supervision o f the American Tract Society which are then to be distributed by missionaries and na­ tive Christians. This Society has pub­ lished tracts in 188 different lan­ guages and dialects. Now Shelton College The National Bible Institute of New York City has recently amended its charter and under permission from the Board o f Regents o f the Univer­ sity o f the State o f New York is now authorized to confer college degrees. Its new name is Shelton College for Dr. and Mrs. Don 0 . Shelton, found­ ers. However, the fact that the In­ stitute has become a college will in no wise lessen its Bible emphasis or decrease its Bible-training program. New Press Services The long-awaited press service of the Evangelical Press Association will be available this fall. This will comprise a weekly news service, giv­ ing full coverage to the evangelical field, including photographs, feature articles, short stories and a cut serv­ ice. Dr. James DeForest Murch, edi­ tor and manager o f United. Evangeli­ cal Action, will launch and supervise this new service. Ten Millions in 1951 General Douglas MacArthur has requested the American Bible Soci­ ety to supply ten million volumes of the Scriptures in Japanese by the end o f 1951. This large task under­ taken by the Society is to be aided by the Bible Seal Campaign to be launched about the middle o f Janu­ ary. By this program the American Bible Society has increased its in­ dividual contributors from 20,000 to nearly 150,000. Japan is one o f twelve areas in the world in which there is an extraordinary demand for the Bi­ ble in the native language.
