184 Reports on General Missions

Board acknowledges the assistance received through the counsel
of Synod’s Mission Secretary, and the Board also recognizes the
able assistance of the Fiscal Office in keeping accounts and per-
forming other tasks that make for accuracy and efficiency. Through
careful management the expenses of the Board have been kept
very low. The capital of the fund on January 31, 1941, was
$1,296,474.93. The bulk of this capital is marked in notes of
Districts, and mortgages of congregations. The cash balance in
the possession of the Church Extension Board on the above date
was $175,965.77, and this amount is held for the Board by the
Treasurer of Synod. It should be added that $38,500.00 has been
appropriated for loans to congregations, but has not yet been
paid out, so that the cash balance at the disposal of the Board
is considerably less than given above. A number of years ago
