CHURCH APPEALS
 FOR WAR FUNDS
ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND MINIS. TIERS WILL BE ASKED BY THE
 FEDERAL COUNCIL.

New York.-An appeal to make May 28 memorial Sunday on which funds would be raised for war sufferers through collections taken in churches throughout the country was mailed 70 100000 American ministers by the Fed eral Council of the Churches of Christ in America.
 The purpose of the council is not only to inaugurate nation wide efforts to assist destitute and starving per sons in Europe and Asia, but to begin also "a movement that shall prepare our Christian churches to play the VI tai part that belongs to them in the period of reconstruction and reconcIl- iation that must follow the close of the war"
 It is only through the churches. the appeal says, that the public senti- ment can be created and the sympathy be shown which will enable our na- ton to help shape alright the future policies of the world powers and lay the solid foundations of world peace through a world court" The council points out that it is not planning to set up new relief organization in addition to the many already in exist ence, but ito supplement their work and impel really unselfish giving, by bringing the facts home to the hearts and consciences" of the mil. lions of American church people.
 Funds raised on May 2S will be sent to the treasurer of any relief commit tee which may be designated among the various organizations listed on the appeal. These include committees which are assisting people in Belgium, Northern France, Servia, Poland, East Prussia. Armenia, Persia. Austria, Syria, turkey and Montenegro, and in the various prison camps in which similar work is being done by the In- ternational Young Mems Christian As sociation
 The appeal points out that ''some churches do not favor special appeals, l" but that "a crisis transcends all ordi- nary rules and even church rules" and that the churches which catch the VI sion and rise to meet this world chal- lenge will reyitalize their spirituality |"

 A tremendous roar, eehoing the screams of the dying people, brought thousands to the scene of the disaster in the heart of Akron's business dis triet. The entire city plunged to the work of rescue

 Eight bodies were soon taken out of the wreckage after fireman police and volunteer reseuers had worked fran tieally digging and chopping through the debris.

 Blasts of dynamite set off in an ex- cavation for a new building directly north of the restaurant unsettled the foundation. The restaurant was one story structure with a two-story laIse front, and the latter topping back ward added a weight of many tons to the falling roof.
 A dynamite charge set off 50 feet away from the restaurant a few mIn- utes before the disaster, is believed to have been the direct cause.
