"HOLY WAR" is NOT so
BAD AS 1T MIGHT BE
From the New York Post.

FROM the New YORK POST.
The term holy war. when used OF the
Mohammedan world. still connotes some
thing awful and menacing to the western
imagination. In the last half dozen years
the holy war. in connection with that 9th
er indefinite thing. Pan-Islamism. has
been spoken of as an eventually which
the European nations must guard them
selves against. But there have been holy
wars IN Mohammedan countries during
this period. and they nave shown no ap-
parent difference In the final outcome. The
natives of Morocco ave risen against the
French in the name of the prophet. The
Turks In Tripoli gave to their fight against
Italy a religious cast. But the French
and the Italians have made their way
just as II 1t were an every day. secular
war they were engaged in. A holy wal IS
no more effective than any other kind OF
war il there are no men and gun to fight
1t with. In Morocco. in Tripoli. In Persia.
and now In Turkey. the Mohammedan
world has come into conflict with Euro
pean ambitions and has had to give way.
The only thing the proclamation of a holy
wa can LEAD to is the massacre of Chris
tians. But experience has shown again
and again that massacre. whether in Tur-
Key or In Russia, has been brought about
by orders from above. We doubt wheth-
er the ottoman government will run the
risk of utter destruction by instigatina
which can do nothing to change
the fortunes Of the present war.

SALVATION ARMY TO
TRAIN GANGSTER SQUAD
Special Course to Be Arranged
for Workers Who Can Reach
the Lefty Louies.

New york-Special: h Salvation
Army is going to help New York po-
lice ON the lower east side. "Slood and
fire" soldiers believe that they under
stand how to handle the roughs who
have terrorized New York better than
with billy and revolver. They have
always claimed to understand the
criminal classes. hnt they are going to
take active steps to train II educate
their officers in the exact and accurate
handling OF desperate characters.
The new training school, which is
being erected here as q memorial to
the late General Booth. will have a
special department. a sort OF post
prandial course where workers who
have qualified in every other depart
ment Will learn the Very best methods
by which a rough from 'helFs kitch-
or a srangster from Jersey Citys
slums nay be brought to see the error
OF his ways.
Colonel Cox. editor of the War Cry"
and one of the chief promoters of the
new training school. when seen at the
Salvation Army headquarters in West
Fourteenth street, said.
w think it has been proven
that violence %provokes only violence.
Threaten a 'Gyp the Blood with cleo
trocutlon, and he laughs: follow a

But let Lefty Louie be approached
by n man. who wears no insignia OF
any organization, who is a good pal
to him and who. while refusing to
drink or to enter amy evil resort. is
yet practical, efficient and kindly. ana
YOU will find that nine 'Leftys out
of ten will yield to such Influence. by
the time that they discover that their
comrade is a Salvationist, they may,
perhaps be ready to welcome the news.
1t will take, of course the most Skilled
and efficient settlement workers In the
world to perform such Il rare service
for a community.
eift out from all the country the most
naturally gifted social workers and
from them, in turn. Will be selected
the people for this most difficult work. |
h training school will be the first
one in the world to have separate
classes for the different kinds of work
n to use the individualities of the
workers with special reference to the
classes of society or the types of hui
mainly with which they will be Oc-
cupied.
LAS a proof hat the sangster and
the gunnan and the desperate charac- !
ter can be touched. just look at the
friendships existing anon the people;
at the devotion o! their wives and
mothers. and at the real courage and
good nature with which man of them
meet what is Il dreadful fate. The
fact that they have committed capital
crimes and that they have been known
to be cruel n vicious at certain
times. is a state of things with which
the state must deal. but the 'gangster !
squad which the Salvation Army in |
tends to turn out, will approach the
difficulty from another angle: not that
Of the inmate depravity which does
most actually exist. but that of in
mate good feeling which does also most
positively exist in the worst of human
beings"

One of the largest local traffic sys.
TENS in the world is that of the Ber-
lin Stadtbaln, which is being changed
trical line. In making this change 1t
has been decided to adopt the use OF
locomotives instead OF the more usual
scheme Of fitting out each car with a
motor. In the case OF a long train it
has been decided to adopt h use OF
two locomotives. one on each end of
h train. both motors to be controlled
from point, the front. This has
been done In the interest OF economy
and efficiency. The operation of these
tines will require 557 locomotives and
700 passenger cars and about 30 other
cars. One of the great advantages OF
the electric locomotive Is that its parts
are much more accessible when 1t
comes to examinations n repairs.
