FOG AND RAIN DEPRESS
LONDON At CHRISTMAS
City Is Filled With Soldiers Home
From the Trenches for Short
Holidays.

LONDON, December 25, e:3s pm
The people of London spent Christmas.
IN depressing atmosphere of fog and
rain The city was filled with SOL
diers. many thousands of mud-stained
veterans from the trenches having re-
eeived short holiday leave.
The last of these men on furIough
arrived at the London terminal as late
rs midday, having been delayed by a
rough passage across the channel,
which left many Of them still pale and
miserable when they reached London.
The great charitable institutions cele-
brated the day with tremendous en-
ergy. There was ample provision for
lonesome soldiers, both homo and colo
niai; for the wounded. for prisoners
and fnterned aliens and for the wives
and families OF the men at the front
Flowers for the Hospitals.
The hospitals were bright with fiow-
ers and gifts. while visitors literally
overran the already crowded wards,
each patient being allowed two or
three Visitors at time. Carol singers
and entertainers of various types pro-
vided amusement at the hospitals and
internment' camps.
Special services were held in yir-
tually all the churches and attended by
large congregations War was the al
most invariable subject of the SER
mons
Archdeacon Wilberforee, preaching in
St Johns, explained his praying for
the German people by stating:
we are not praying that they won't
be vanquished or punished for their
crimes. but rather that the German
curse of Prussianism and may strike
on the fetter OF cruel military despot-
ism"

Canon Carnegie. at st. Margarets, at
tackled the weaknesses in leadership
revealed by the war. saying: The
most. painful lesson of the war has
been Great Britain's lack of strong
and intelligent leadership. The seleo-

Measure a Compromise.

The completed bill is a compromise
measure, embodying many Of the features
of the Hollis -Bulkley bill of the last Con-
gress and most of the underlying prin-
ciules of the Fletcher Moss bill, fostered
by the United States commission on rural
credits Senator Fletcher, president of
the commission. was in consultation to-
day with the subcommittee, and will sup
port the measure.
The members of the subcommittee on
personal credits have been participating
in the land mortgage loan proceedings
and as the two subcommittee comprise
the full joint committee the agreement
on the land mortgage bill insures its
speedy submission to the Senate and
House.
The personal credits legislation, as a
separate measure, is not yet in sight
although there have been some hear
ings before that subcommittee, aTld
some phases of personal credits are
taken care of in the land mortgage
loan bill. There has never been sepa-
rate bill covering the subject of per-
sonal credits to serve as q basis for a
distinct measure this time, and for that
reason. Congress probably will be asked
for more time for report along that
