4NTI-SUICIDE CAMPAIGN.
General Booth Sums Up UOrk Of
Bureaus-Many SaUed.

London JAN Twelve months ago GeneraI
Booth of the Salvation Army started anti
suicide bu aus in various cities of the world
and he now has issued a review OF the year
work Altogether 1125 men and ~ women
sought the assistance Of the London bureau 10
save them from self-destruction. while at least
an equal number applied at the bureaus in other
cities II appears from the review that the
seekers for help belonged mainly 10 the middle
classes More than half of them attributed the
desire to end their lives TO financial embarrass-
ment or hopeless poverty.
From the small number of women applicants
General Booth deduces that they are better able
IN hear I'D under sorrows and trials than men,
He thinks it safe to say that - per cent OF the
applicants have been diverted rom contem-
plated suicide and helped to surmount their
difficulties.
Clergymen naval and military officers, doc
tors. newspaper men and bakers were among
those saved from committing suicide General
Booth considers that the results more than jus
titled the institution of the bureaus. which
henceforth will have permanent place in the
operations of the Salvation Army.
