goes to foreign missionary activity. Roy L. Challberg, assistant director for World Vision of Korea, reports, “ Thousands of families in Korea are on the verge of abandoning their children because of the lack of day care centers.” The remarks came as he returned to his post in Seoul after a year’s furlough. The Korean eco­ nomic conditions are slowly improv­ ing. Because of the lack of television, Challberg says, the children are us­ ing more of their creative potential. This may be one of the factors which has caused much of the society to display a greater degree of initiative in certain areas, he explained. The Korean government feels they are on schedule toward total reconstruction as they pass another five year goal. However, total reconstruction is still in the future. Currently, thousands of children still face abandonment. Dr. Bemon Moetenson, General Direc­ tor of TEAM, has announced the ap­ pointment of the Rev. Carl W. Davis as Home Secretary of the mission in Australia. At the request of TEAM’S Australian Council, Mr. Davis will initiate an active program of repre­ senting the ministry of the Mission in schools and churches. The growing missionary interest in Australia has resulted in a number of young peo­ ple’s responding to TEAM’S call for Commonwealth citizens to serve in areas such as India and Pakistan where they can more easily gain entry. World Vision International of Monro­ via, Calif, has sponsored an inter­ national art talent contest, with more than 15,000 orphans and needy chil­ dren between the ages of six and 18 participating. These children, aided by people in America, Australia and Canada, will be representing 19 coun­ tries including Vietnam. According to Dr- Bob Pierce, president of WV, the program is the first of its kind and will give the children a chance to display abilities which otherwise might not be recognized. The Indo-Burma Pioneer Mission hon­ ored Mr. Watkin R. Roberts, a veteran missionary to India, with the Distin­ guished Missionary Citation at its annual banquet. Speaker for the eve­ ning was Dr. Richard C. Halverson, vice president of World Vision Interna­ tional. While in India, Missionary Roberts opened village schools for the backward tribes and introduced the first printing press. He has been active in various organizations. At age 82, Mr. Roberts is still active as an elder in the famous Peoples’ Church of Toronto, Canada. His wife, Gladys, is a hymn writer. One of her well-known songs is “Wounded For Me.”

1. WHEATON ANNUITIES

pay generous dividends for life

Wheaton Annuity Contracts yield a liberal rate of return (may exceed 9%, depending on your age) and assure you of income checks for life. And in addi­ tion to the generous financial benefits—you have the priceless satisfaction of knowing that you have made an eternal investment “ for Christ and His King­ dom”—that you are having a share in the training of young people for Christian life and service. Wheaton Annuity Contracts are available in mul­ tiples of $100 on a Single Life or Survivorship basis. And through the Wheaton Annuity Plan, you can also provide regulated sums of money by will to your loved ones. They also provide important tax benefits. 2. Wheaton Deposit Agreements currently pay A% per year For the person who wants his money to go into the Lord’s work, but finds it necessary to have the prin­ cipal available if needed—the Wheaton Deposit Agreement is ideal. Deposits may be made from time to time, and withdrawals in multiples of one hundred dollars may be made upon written notice. Currently you receive 4% interest per annum and payments are made semi-annually.

These two plans . . .

make it possible to have your funds at work for the Lord . . . some in Wheaton Annuities, where the rate of return for the older ages is higher ... and some in Wheaton De­ posit Agreements, where your principal is always available if needed and you are as­ sured of a good return on your money. Write us for more detailed information as to the flexibil­ ity of both Wheaton plans. No obligation, of course.
