RELIGION IN THE RANKS
Greek Catholics the Only Consistent
Sect in the Present Great
Conflict

Philadelphia, Aug. 11.-Dig down
deep enough into any great human
and social problem and you will find
religion fundamental factor. So
the war in Europe is profoundly af-
fected by religious considerations,
says an observing writer in the North
American. AS truly as it is a great
conflict between Pan-SIavic and Pan
Teutonism, it is also between the
Latin and Greek churches. Austria
claims to continue the Holy Roman
Empire, and officially the most Ro-
man Catholic of all countries. Servia
holds to the Greek church, or Or
thodox church, of which the Car is
really the temporal head.
And, as every one who is familiar
with the near East, knows the strife
and rivalry between these two pre-
vailing grand divisions of Christen-
dom in that part of the world is con-
tinuous and always intertwined with
international politics.
The antagOnism between LatinS
and the Greeks, as they are quite
commonly called, is by far more in
tense and acute than any rivalry be-
tween protestant denominations in
this land, or between Protestants
and Catholics. eNarly everywhere in
Eastern Europe and Western Asia

they touch (even in the Church of
the Nativity at Bethlehem and the
Church of the Holy Sepulcher at
Jerusalem) they clash
Reaches Even the Holy Land
As the war develops we may look
for early news of clashes in Bible
lands. At best the Latins and Greeks
are normally in state of armed
truce there. Even the fear of the
Moslem does not drive them togeth-
er. In Constantinople, Jerusalem
Beirut, Alexandria and elsewhere in
the region of the Mediterranean,
each of these faiths has a section of
the city to itself. Religion means
more politically than 1t does spirit
ually to the people of the Balkans
and of these lands which were the
scenes of Bible history.
One of the likeliest effects of the
war will be the realization by GER
tain powers of their dreams of pos
session of Palestine. Russia is
thirsty for the warm waters of the
Mediterranean, and Austria has long
been resolute to possess a seaport on
Aegean Sea. Of course, Germany's
dream and desire is to break the bar
riers that isolate her and to drive
southwark for harbors.
These contending and intricate in
ternational aspirations are likely to
brush aside the SuItan's throne and
to result in the division of the Tux
ish Empire. Land and oil fields

Lotus Eaters

In Greek legends lotus eaters were
@ people who ate the fruit and drank
the juice of the lotus, prickly shrub
possessing the power to cause con-
sumers to lose all thoughts of home
and kindred and to sink into a stupor
In which they were but half awake
and half asleep. The term Is now
sometimes applied to persons who for
get the claims of relatives and coun-
try, or to those who lead languid
and listless life.

"Did IL ever occur TO YOU what happen.

! So many things happen. or are likely
to happen. that the visitor kept silent.
and DR. Soper continued.
"One Of the things that happen j. 'hs

As TO the authoritative character OF
the work il may be said that the members
OF the commission were selected with
regard to their peculiar fitness to study the
many and Intricate phases Of the subject.
The members of the commission are all
of them distinguished men--James II .
Fuertes, II. de H. Parsons, Charles Sooy-
smith, Linsy r. Williams. They have
been assisted by "A corps OF highly trained
men in the fields of engineering, biology.
chemistry, &c, and the commission has
furthermore awaited itself of the services
of about twenty of the leading experts
of the world in various lines of profess
sional effort connected with sanitary
science. public health administration,
medicine. chemistry, engineering. biology
and 30 on
LET it be understood in the beginning
that the work Of the commission was
divided into two parts, /, the investigat-
ing of conditions which existed for the
purpose of ascertaining whether it was
necessary to take any steps whatever;
and 2. the planning Of specific measures
and the remedies required.
"1'he first part OF this work, that of
| Investigation, was concluded in 1910
and II report of 500 pages was issued. We
had investigated the entire metropolitan
area, comprising some 700 square miles,
wholly disregarding political boundaries
such az the State lines Of New York and
New Jersey. The population Of this area
now runs somewhere between six and
seven millions. When II doubles, as it
will In thirty years from now the con-
sequences may he imagined unless re-
strictivs measures are carried cut. Mo-

1910. that suitable appropriations for
the work were given the commission
and legal obstacles cleared away 80 that
II could get down to definite. energetic
operations and constructive plans for
the future.
Throughout the whole period from
1903. year after year, the importance
of the subject was growing rapidly in
the mind Of the public and in that of public
officials charged with the health and well
fare OF the community. In the beginning
the people Of this great area lived in a
FOOLS paradise. 1t was generally be-
lieved by them that all the waste that
could be thrown into the surrounding
waters would he promptly and thoroughly
disposed OF by nature, as smoke is dis
posed OF through smokestack or a
thousand smokestacks
AS soon as actual facts rega riding the
situation were clearly put before the
public verybody began to see the neces-
sity OF stricter measures for dealing with
the problem. This commission then
was created and maintained to make an
exhaustive and thorough study and to
complete 1t with recommendations upon
which to base action. The final report.
which will be issued in May next. will
fully describe not merely past and exist
Ing conditions. including physical char
acteristics. but. In accordance with in
structions Of the Legislature. a compre-
hensive plan, carefully worked out. for
insuring the city's welfare so far as sew
age ia concerned. and also scheme for
administration suited to maintenan nee
OF the plan Of construction and its oper-
alton.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1914-01-25

where else in the world can such condi-
tons be found: and these are the cond-
tions described by the commission in its
report of 1910.
-Since 1910 the commission has devoted
itself TO the second part of the work for
which il was created, its attention having
been chiefly confined to devising plans
for a system of main drainage and sewage
disposal for Greater New York. This
restriction to New York city was necessary
because to IA great extent New York was
the chief offender in polluting the harbor
When New York puts its own house in
order it IL reasonable TO suppose that
New Jersey will follow suit. II New
Jersey does not do 80 then New York will
be in excellent position to require its
neighbor to clean up"
DR.. Soper paused near a window of his
Office far up above the street level ana
facing Battery place, o.
Look down there" he said pointing
| to a wee figure a dozen stories below.
"The man you see is pushing "A handcart
| filled with driftwood He has gathered
! the driftwood from the water eddying

his home over on the East Side,
THAT driftwood is foul with accumu-
lations washing through all this water.
II will be broken into small pieces and
used for fuel in some tenement home.
The hands that will chop or break up
that driftwood are the same hands that
will feed II into the kitchen stove while
they are preparing and cooking food for
the family to eat. Does that suggest
something OF the importance Of the matter
under consideration? And remember,
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1914-01-25

to the fact that New York bay and all
the waters Of the harbor were polluted
already. and that there were no restric-
tons regulations or central control over
the discharge OF sewage into these waters
from hundreds of outlets as far up the
Hudson, for example, as Yonkers.
