Dr. John R. Mott, Director General of the United War Work Campaign, which begins today and will last until Nov. 18, announced yesterday that in every State of the Union, and in foreign countries where Americans live, the machinery is ready for the solicitation not only of the $170,500,000 asked for the seven war work agencies, but also for an over-subscription of 50 per cent. Calling attention to the greatness of teh task, Dr. Mott warned against undue optimism.

"The only hope of accomplishing the desired end is for every member of the nation-wide organization to keep right on his toes during the next eight days, and for every last friend of the United War Work agencies, Protestant, Catholic, Jew, to back it to the utmost limit," he said.

The Chairman's statement was echoed last night at Carnegie Hall, where spokesmen of the Protestant, Catholic and Jewish faiths, both clergy and laymen, meeting under the auspices of the Salvation Army, urged on members of all religious denominations to subscribe liberally to the fund. The speakers were the Right Rev. Peter J. Muldoon, Chairman of the National Catholic War Council; the Rev. Dr. Joseph Silverman, rabbi of Tample Emanu-El; the Rev. Dr. Karl Relland, rector of St. George's Episcopal Church; Miss Evangeline Booth, Commander in Chief of the Salvation Army in this country, and George Gordon Battle. The Chairman was former Ambassador Myron T. Herrick.

The Carnegie Hall audience was enthusiastic and responsive, applauding wildly when a group of Salvation Army workers who had just returned from France were introduced. Among these were Adjutant Helen Purvelance, "the original doughnut girl," and the McAlister sisters, who made 3,000 doughnuts and 100 gallons of coffee a day for the soldiers.

An appeal by Cardinal Gibbons, President of the National Catholic War Council, for generous contributions on the part of all citizens to the fund, was made public yesterday.

"It would be a great mistake to think that the end of teh war will diminish the need of the work of these seven organizations that have done so much for the comfort and welfare of our soldiers and sailors," the Cardinal said.

"The peace treaty will not be concluded for several months at least after the fighting has ceased; all that time our force of 2,000,000 soldiers will remain there on duty. After the signing of the peace treaty it will take many months for the repatriation of our troops, even if they are then free to return; ardently as we desire to see all our brave boys home once more. We must resign ourselves to the prospects that large numbers, if not hundreds of thousands, must remain abroad much longer as an army of occupation.

"Besides, nearly all of Europe east of the Franco-Belgian frontier will see stormy days. Disorder and revolution are sure to break out in many places. Who can foresee what services our troops may yet be called on to render for the re-establishment of order and cilization in Europe? We must see this thing through to the end, until the foundation of peace and justice is securely laid.

"It is very evident that in this period of waiting and during the time of occupation the services of these seven welfare organizations will be more needed than ever. It will be a time of great danger to our soldiers, of danger more fatal than shot and shell. It is our duty to do our utmost to protect our beloved boys from these moral perils. To slacken our efforts now, to lessen our generosity, would be great ingratitude to the men who have encountered such hardships and dangers for our sake and are bringing to a happy end the greatest war in history.

"They have earned the best and the most that we can give them," concluded the Cardinal's statement, "and the American who will not give all he can and help all he can is unworthy of our noble army and navy and the holy cause for which they fought."

Every business establishment in Greater New York will be canvassed this week. The Industrial Captains have adopted "an amendment to the tax laws," an act "to provide revenues for the welfare of the boys in camp and on the battle line." The voluntary law calls for a subscription or voluntary tax of not less than one-quarter of 1 per cent. on the outstanding capital stock of each corporation doing business in the city; a voluntary tax of not less than 2 1/2 per cent. of its net profits during the week on every firm doing business in the city, and a voluntary and self-imposed tax by each and every employe of the firms and corporations specified of one full day's pay. The last provision does not include higher salaried officers and firm members, of whom greater donations will be expected. The amounts due are to be paid in four equal installments, beginning on Dec. 1, 1918, and on the first of each of the three following months.

Appreciation of the work done by the Y.M.C.A. women connected with the Navy Hut at the French base of the naval forces in France was voiced in a cablegram received from Vice Admiral H. B. Wilson and made public yesterday at the United War Work Campaign headquarters.

The Allied Theatrical, Motion Picture, Music and Entertainment Team inaugurated its part of the drive last night at the Hippodrome, where a monster program arranged by E. F. Albee was presented. The list of performers included almost every headliner in New York. Among the attractions for the week arranged by this section are a concert and boxing carnival on Saturday night at Madison Square Garden, a football game between Princeton and Camp Upton on Saturday afternoon; every afternoon this week from 2:30 to 11 P.M. war relic expositions at the 1st Field Artillery, Sixty-eighth Street and Broadway and the 23d Regiment Armory, Bedford and Atlantic Avenues, Brooklyn; tomorrow night a gala concert at the Metropolitan Opera House by John McCormack, Maggie Teyte, and Jacques Thibaud; Saturday night a Victory ball at the Hotel Astor, and Sunday night the Friars Frolic at the Metropolitan Opera House.

"Now that the war is ending happily for everybody, the Jewish Welfare Board, the Y.M.C.A., the K. of C., and the other war work organizations will for many months need our support more than ever," said Jacob H. Schiff, speaking yesterday at the dedication exercises of a canteen in Seward Park. The meeting was under the auspices of the Jewish Welfare Board, and the speakers were, besides Mr. Schiff, Abram I. Elkus, Judge Otto A. Rosalsky, Israel Unterberg, Jonathan C. Day, Dr. Leon L. Watters, and Colonel Harry Cutler, Chairman of the board.

An appeal to the workingmen of New York to continue to volunteer for war work until President Wilson announces that the great need for war workers no longer exists was issued yesterday at the headquarters of the United States Employment Service, 489 Fifth Avenue.

The United War Work Campaign in the Oranges opened last night with initial subscriptions of $226,395 out of a quota of $650,000. On Wednesday morning at 11 o'clock at the Fruit Trade Building, 204 Franklin Street, there will be held an auction of fruit and produce donated by the members of the west side wholesale trade. Among the speakers announced are Dr. William T. Manning of Trinity Church, Dr. George E. Vincent of the Rockefeller Foundation, the Rev. Father John L. Belford, Dr. Stephen S. Wise, Albert E. Roberts, and Colonel McIntyre of the Salvation Army.

A performance given at the Hippodrome last night in aid of the allied war work fund resulted in gross gate receipts of more than $10,000, while a collection taken up following an address by United States Marshal McCarthy was estimated at several thousand dollars more. The program was arranged by E. F. Albee, and was made up largely of vaudeville headliners.

 

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.—The United war Work Campaign will be inaugurated in this city tomorrow with a parade. President Wilson has been invited to review the pageant as it passes the White House. Units of the nation's land and sea forces will march with representatives of the seven organizations and the various Government departments and contingents of Boy Scouts with their band.

Secretary Daniels spoke at Baltimore today in the interest of the drive and Secretary McAdoo issued a statement here asking the people to oversubscribe the fund.

 

In response to the appeals that corporations contribute from one-fourth of 1 percent. to 1 per cent. of their capital stock to the United War Work Campaign, the New York Times Company will contribute 1 per cent—$10,000—and in addition the 1,500 employes of will contribute the full amount of one day's wages—$6,000—this making a contribution of $16,000 from.

 

BALTIMORE, Md., Nov. 10.—An armistice does not end the war, but merely halts it, Secretary Daniels said in an address at a mass meeting here today in behalf of the United States War Work Campaign which begins tomorrow.

"If the armistice is signed today or tomorrow," the Secretary said, "It does not mean our men are no longer in military service, and it does not mean that concern for their entertainment and welfare can be relaxed. On the contrary, it will be a challenge to increased zeal and an appeal to new resources."

The War Work Campaign, the secretary added, would be responded to by all who thought more of the courage, clean living, and home interest of the nation's fighting men than of anything else.

 

A plea for hearty support of the United War Work drive was the keynote of the sermons in churches here yesterday. Revolution in Germany and approaching peace also were discussed.

The Rev. Dr. Charles A. Eaton in his sermon in the Madison Avenue Baptist Church said recent events marked the first time the world had passed consciously from one era to another. He paid tribute to Cardinal Merster "as the greatest figure in the religious world today."

Rabbi Silverman in Temple Beth-El said the world was nearer its millennium today than ever before, and asserted the war had brought mankind nearer to brotherhood than had centuries of religious teachings. War, he added, had brought religion back to its original task of combating bigotry, fighting sin, and uplifting mankind. The rabbi dwelt upon the comradeship and co-operative spirit of chaplains of all creeds in the army and navy.

"The very angels of God have been fighting with our soldiers," the Rev. Dr. John Roach Straton said in his sermon in Calvary Baptist Church. He expressed belief that the world war had recreated spiritual thought, and cited teh declaration of "a man so practical as Marshal Joffre" that he believed the first battle of the Marne was won by God.

The Rev. Dr. S. Howard Young, in the Bedford Presbyterian Church, Brooklyn, said "in the Providence of God Kaiser ished by the German people themselves," ished by the German people themselves" [sic] and that their face could not come more bitterly than at the hands of the Socialists they had denounced. Retribution upon the war lord he described as divine, and as the first world lesson to be derived from the German downfall.

 

Page of San Francisco, one of the members of the Shipping Board, has decided to resign and plans to present his resignation to Chairman Hurley soon. Mr. Page is a lawyer who has devoted particular attention to maritime affairs, and has specialized in the work with the board. It was said tonight that Mr. Page feels the necessity of getting back to his business.

 

William Banks, a negro, 55 years old, of 234 West Sixty-first Street, who had been interrupted in a robbery at the Hotel Navarre yesterday afternoon and had fled to the roof of a house at 340 West Thirty-eighth Street, was shot and killed by Policeman Sabatella of the West Thirty-seventh Street Station. James Denham, captain of the hotel bellboys, caught Banks trying to get out of the Navarre with the stolen things and forced him to drop them. When Sabatella tried to follow the negro to the roof the latter jammed down the door and lay on it. The policeman fired at the door and the bullet went through it and into Banks' body.

 

The National War Work Council of the Y.M.C.A. gave out yesterday a financial statement covering its operations from the beginning of the war to July 31, 1918. The statement was issued by George W. Perkins, Chairman of the Finance Committee, and shows that the Y.M.C.A. has handled during the period $54,354,034, of which more than $400,000 represents interest earned on the contributions given to it. In connection with the statement the council said:

"July 31 is the latest date for which figures could be made available from the Paris headquarters, and the operations on this side are given as of the same date for the sake of presenting a complete and uniform picture. On that date the Y.M.C.A. had still on hand a balance in excess of $17,000,000. In the intervening period the demands of the work overseas have grown by leaps and bounds because of the vastly accelerated movement of troops, so that the balance on hand at that date has now been entirely spent and has been succeeded by a deficit. In this intervening period Y.M.C.A. men and women workers have been sent abroad at the rate of very nearly 1,000 a month, and the number of buildings, restaurants, hotels, huts, tents, &c., operated for the A.E.F. in France has increased from 895 to 1,5000.

"On July 31 the expenditures for work in the country were still in excess of the expenditures for work overseas. This situation has now been reversed. Expenditures overseas have grown not merely because of the growth of the army, but because every operation in France costs far more than a similar operation on this side, due to the fact that the men are not gathered there into great cantonments, but are billeted in hundreds of villages and are constantly moving about.

"Up to July 31 approximately 9,500 uniforms had been furnished to workers in the United States, and 7,222 uniforms to the 3,311 secretaries sent overseas. Many of these workers are bearing all of their own expenses, but the majority receive an expense allowance from the Y.M.C.A., which covers their bare necessities, in this case of unmarried workers, and gives to married workers approximately the allowance of a Lieutenant in the army. The statement gives some idea of the scope and magnitude of the work undertaken by the Y.M.C.A. for the soldiers. The association is now one of the largest operators of hotels and restaurants in the world; it is the largest single exhibitor of motion pictures; it has the services of approximately a hundred actresses and actors in its huts in France, and has sent abroad the largest consignments of athletic goods ever placed in the history of organized sport. One single order was placed recently for more than half a million dollars worth of athletic equipment.

"In the period of demobilization the educational work of the 'Y' is counted upon by the military authorities as a factor of vital importance. In preparation for this the 'Y' has recently placed an order for more than $2,000,000 worth of textbooks for France."

There will begin in this city tomorrow what is considered the most important convention of Lutherans ever held in this country. The three older bodies of the Lutheran Church, the General Synod, organized in 1820; the General Council, organized in 1867, and the United Synod South, dating back to civil war days, will meet for the last time as independent organized bodies. Before the week is over their forces will be combined under the title of the United Lutheran Church of America, representing a communicant membership of 800,000 and a baptized membership of 1,600,000.

The convention will open tomorrow with the three bodies meeting separately to wind up their affairs. The General Council will meet in Holy Trinity Church, Central Park West and Sixty-fifth Street; the Central Synod in St. James's Church, Madison Avenue and Seventy-third Street, and the United Synod South in the Church of the Advent, Broadway, at Ninety-third Street. On Thursday evening the united church will go in procession to Holy Trinity Church for communion service. The procession will be led by the Ways and Means Committee, in which are the Presidents of the three general bodies, Dr. Theodore E. Schmauk, Dr. V. G. A. Tressley, and Dr. M. G. G. Scherer. The sermon will be preached by the Rev. H. E. Jacobs, Dean of Mount Airy Seminary at Philadelphia.

Friday morning the business meeting at which the merger will be formally carried out will be held in the auditorium of the Engineers Building, 33 West Thirty-ninth Street. The first business will be the election of officers of the general body, and there is much speculation as to who will lead the Lutherans in America. The public ratification meeting will be held at the Hotel Astor on Friday evening at 8 o'clock. A large public meeting will be held in the Hillodrome on Sunday evening. The centre of the decoration scheme will be a gigantic bust of Martin Luther, from whom the Lutheran Church takes its name. At the same time public meetings are scheduled for the Academy of Music in Brooklyn and another in Jersey City.

Lebanon Hospital, in the Bronx, is enlarging its facilities for the care of the sick, it was announced yesterday. The changes are bine gmade under teh direction of W. H. Abbott, the new Superintendent, who succeeded William Daub, who retired recently. The interior of the hospital is being rearranged and redecorated and new private rooms and a maternity ward are being added.

Lebanon Hospital has just passed through a very trying time with the increase in sickness and with so many of its doctors and nurses in service and others too sick to attend to their patients. Notwithstanding this handicap the hospital opened its doors to all who needed its care and advice. The Medical Board was one of the first to recognize the seriousness of the influenza epidemic. Restrictions as to visiting, special care in isolation of those sick with influenza and pneumonia, and other precautionary measures were immediately adopted. The hospital announded yesterday that, with the epidemic on the wane, it will again open its wards for general treatment.

The training school for the nurses is launching a new scheme whereby any young woman acceptable to the management may be prepared for the nursing profession free of charge and yet receive the monthly allowance for pupil nurses in training. Full particulars may be obtained by writing to the Superintendent.

The Italian Discount and Trust Company, incorporated under the laws of New York State with a capital of $500,000 and a surplus of $250,000, which was organized recently under the auspices of the Guaranty Trust Company and the Banca Italiana Disconto, will begin the transaction of a general banking and trust company business at 399 Broadway this morning, special attention being given to Italian export and import trade.

George P. Kennedy, formerly assistant treasurer of the Guaranty Trust Company, is President of the new bank and G. Biasutti, manager of the Florence branch of the Banca Italiana Disconto, is Vice President. Among the directors are Alexander J. Hemphill, Eugene W. Stetson, Harry Lawton, and Theodore Rousseau of teh Guaranty Trust Company; Comm. Angelo Pogliani, Managing Director of the Banca Italiana Disconto; Emanuel Gorli, Judge John J. Freachl, Mr. Kennedy, and Mr. Biasutty.

The Banca Ialiana Disconto, with which the Company is affiliated, is among the leading banks of Italy, having 70 branches in that country. Gugilelmo Marconi, inventor of wireless telegraphy, is chairman of its board of directors.

<section end="Bank for Italian Trade" /> <section begin="Hylan Writes to Garfield" />

Mayor Hylan sent a letter yesterday to United States Fuel Administrator Dr. H. A. Garfield explaining why he had ordered the Police Department to make a census of the coal supply of the city and denying that it had been asked for or was being done in the interest of the Fuel Administration. The Mayor assured Dr. Garfield that there would be no investigation made for the Fuel Administration unless it was so requested. The Mayor stated that on Oct. 3 he had requested Police Commissioned Enright to make the census, and, after quoting his letter, said:

"This investigation is made for the purpose of having an inventory of the coal supply in the City of New York, so that those who have an excess supply could be appealed to, to help the less fortunate who might be without coal, as hundres of people were last Winter, resulting in great suffering and distress. Request has been made upon the Fuel Administration authorities in this city as to the amount of coal on hand here, and their response has been that there is no man or body in this city who has in his or their possession the information above requested.

"I note by the the press that you have allowed another increase in the price of coal of 95 cents per ton because of the increase in the wages of miners, which, if report is correct, amounts to about 50 cents per week. The people who were unable to secure coal where they had complied with all the requirements of the Fuel Administration months ago must now pay 95 cents more per ton. This will take millions out of the pockests of the poor people of this city.

"The people look to me as Mayor to be sufficiently interested in their welfare to be prepared in the case of an emergency to assist them. Unless I know the actual conditions, I will not be in a position to advise or help them. It is my plain duty to the people of this city to guard and protect their interests, as far s it lies within my power, and I cannot see what objection there is to the Mayor knowing the actual conditions of the coal supply in this city. There is no intention on my part to in any way embarrass or interfere with the Fuel Administration work in this city."

The war activities of the college will be the subject.

<section end="To Tell of Columbia's War Activities" /> <section begin="Will Restore Louvain" />

Announcement was made yesterday of the organization of the National Committee in the United States for the Restoration of the University of Louvain, with President Nicholas Murray Butler of Columbia University as chairman. The committee includes fifty of the leading public men of the United States, heads of American universities, financiers, educators and publicists and diplomats. Among the members are the two former Presidents, William Howard Taft and Theodore Roosevelt. The secretary's office where those desiring to aid in the restoration of the great Belgian university may send books is established at the J. Pierpont Morgan library in this city.

"The wanton destruction of the ancient and celebrated University Halls of Louvain, including the treasures of its splendid library, has evoked the unanimous indignation of the entire civilized world," says the announcement of the committee. "This application, after the sacrilegious invasion of Belgium, of the policy of monstrous terrorization by which it was planned that Kultur should be substituted for European culture, developed through the ages, is to receive universal condemnation by the restoration of the university. Founded in 1425, the University of Louvain has for five centuries been an international centre of science and learning, attended by students from all nations." National committees are being organized in all the leading nations, to co-operate with the International Committee for the Restoration of the University of Louvain.

There was never a time when so large an amount of cash was carried in the pocket as in this day of large wages and high prices.

Whatever money a man may have consistently carried about with him formerly must be doubled in amount to-day. As a matter of fact, it is probably, under current conditions, not only doubled, but tripled, if not quadrupled. This large amount of money is performing no useful service and is one of the causes for the present restriction of credit.

Every hundred dollars carried in pocket would have a credit potential capacity of some eighty dollars if deposited in bank. This credit is sorely needed today and the increase that would be afforded by despositing in bank cash unneccessary for daily needs would yield an enormous sum.

Exactly the same criticism can be made of money that is carried over night by merchants in their till, for if only a few hundreds or a few thousands of dollars here and there, the aggregate throughout the country would afford one day's basis for a corresponding amount of credit totaling a great sum.

In New York, the unique service of the Harriman National Bank, open from 8 A.M. to 8 P.M. daily, Saturdays included, offers the community not only the benefit of deposited cash, but also one day earlier clearance of checks and a corresponding day's use of funds thereby represented. This suggestion comprehends one of those individual patriotic services which we are apt to overlook.
