MEETING TO CONSIDER
SOLDIERS AND SAILORS
Plans for Improving Social Condi-
lions to Be Discussed by Wei
fare Association

Plans for improving social conditions
for soldiers and sailors in the service
of the United States are to be discussed
at the annual session of the Associa
ton for the Promotion of the Moral
and Religious Welfare of Our Soldiers
and Sailors, to be held here beginning
September IS. The sessions are to be
held in the old census building.
Orville ]. Nave, chaplain-in-chief of
the Grand Army of the Republic and
president Of the organization. has re-
auested all posts of the G. A. R. and
all relief corps. all circles Of the Ladies'
of the Grand Army, camps Of the Sons
Of Veterans and their auxiliaries, all
camps of the United Spanish War Vet
Grams and their auxiliaries and all or
ganisations of the Sons and Daughters
Of the American Revolution to send
one representative each, preferably the
chaplain, to the sessions.
President Nave's Appeal.
In urging this President Nave says:
THE government takes good physical
care of the soldiers and sailors, but
their social side is seriously neglected.
Congress is so parsimonious in appro-
priations for the army and navy that
the departments can barely keep up
the efficiency of the services by pro-
viding for the absolute necessities only
The social side, therefore, of the men
is sorely neglected. For instance, no
provision was made, when the troops
were modified on the Mexican border,
for tents for recreations entertain
ments, reading, divine worship or
other social welfare privileges. The
only places to which the men could go
for social relaxation have been outside
saloons, brothels and dope dens,
which always infest army camps. The
Chaplains' Association made repre-
conditions through the Federal Coun-
Gil of Churches, which has Endorsed the
program of the association and Sc
cured an appropriation for tents, mo-
tion picture equipment, monographs,
tables for letter writing and games
organs for song services and divine
worship.
mo increase of chaplains for the
navy had been provided in fifty years,
creased, there being only twenty-five
for all ships. navy yards and naval
stations. The agitation set going by
the Chaplains' Association secured an
increase of thirtythree chaplains for
the navy.
This association is urging that at
all permanent posts institutional
buildings be provided, modelled after
city Y NJ. c. A. buildings, with fully
young men at army posts and naval
stations, but appropriations for this
purpose cannot be secured from Con-
gress without strong and urgent de-
mand made by the people who must
pay the bills"

IF we are to keep pace with the

If we are to keep abreast Of all that
is going on confidentially in the vari-
Gus capitals of Europe, if We are to
know what other governments of Eu-

neighboring governments are doing,
we must have a greater emergency

should be provided by Congress.
The foreign work of the United States
government has grown to an immense
volume. The legations and embassies

mented burden in handling matters
arising from the war. The consular
