Nobody will greet the General more
cordially than Booth-Tucker, who, nc
matter how successful he has been In
building up the Army in other coun.
tries, is far from satisfied, according tc
some in the Army who ought to know
with what he has accomplished here
The diminished regular income of the
Army in this country Is given as the
chief handicap of the work under
Booth Tucker.
When the Darlington Booths left the
Army a large part Of the auxiliary
force withdrew also. When Major
Swift, who was at the head of the aux
lliary forces in this country, left the
Army to join the Roman Catholic
Church year or so ago the auxiHaries
suffered another serious depletion OF
numbers.
Before the break between father and
son this auxiliary force numbered
about 5000. AS each member is p!edg-
ed to contribute at least SIS a year for
the support OF the army, there was al
ways an assurance of at least $4,000 q
year from this source
AS matter of fact the auxiliary
meant much more than this sum, for
the members were always appealed to
on every occasion when a general call
Tor contributions was sent out, and, az
rule, they always responded literally.
Many Of the auxi!iaries were persons
of wealth. and others were mon and
women OF tremendous influence. I'm
DER the present management of the
Army this part of the wing has been
the slowest in recovering from the
shock of the internal conflict
Another thing that must bother the
Salvation Army folk in this connection
is that most of the seceders among the
auXlliaries have become supporters OF
the Volunteers under almost the same
conditions that they used to belong to
the Army. With the Volunteers thew
are members of the Defenders League.
and they number, according to + G.
Hallimond. the national secretary OF
the organization, nearly 1000 This
means an assured income Of not less
than $4,000 for the Volunteers.

These are momentouS days for the
salvation Army in this country. The
coming Of General Booth, the COM
mander Of the Salvation Army forces all
over the world, has caused feverish anx-
tety to every field and staff officer In

veteran General is the cause Of con-
siderable trepidation in the breasts
OF majority of the officers Of the
American Volunteers also. for most Of
them are wondering what Is going to
De the result Of the meeting of General
Booth and his son. Darlington.
The prime objec- Of the coming Of
General Booth is to establish some BORT
OF truce between the forces that, de-
spite all denials and reservations on
both sides, are warning either secretly
or openly upon each other, much to
the detriment of the work of both.
There Is another reason for the COM
Ing Of the head Of the Salvation Army.
Commander BoothTucker, Darlington
Booths successor as the head Of the
Army forces in America. has brought
the Army into ructions with the law
and public sentiment to such a degree
as to hinder seriously it in its work
In at least two of the largest cities OF
the country. These are New York
