MORMONS FAST.
HELP BROTHERS ON DOLE. NEW YORK, June 8. To take members of their faith off the dole, 30,000 Mormons in the State of Arizona spent yesterday in fasting and prayer. By eating only one meal and devoting the balance of a normal day's food cost to the church's fund, they raised tho equivalent of £2500 Australian. The Mormon Church is determined to "take care of its own." it was announced. The leaders of the Latter Day Saints said a great emergency would arise when the Government is at last compelled to stop spending billions in relief. _
