Oldest of the Three
The Scotch Presbyterian Church, tho
Oldest of these three churches and
which is now located at the corner OF
Central Park West and Ninety-sixth
Street, is historically the Second Pres
byterian Church of New York, since 1t
was received into the second Presby-
terry Of New York in 1888, whereas the
Old First Church, which was originally
a Collegiate Church, was received into
the Presbytery in 1909 after a history
of ninety-three years.
The Scotch Church during these $50
wears has had only seven pastors-the
Rev. John Mason, the Rev. John NJ.
Mason, a son of the first pastor; the
Rev. B. f. Mcleod, the Rev. Joseph
McEloy, the Rev. Samuel NJ. Hamilton,
the Rev. David G. Wylie, who. became
secretary of the present Presbyterian
Board of Church Erection two years
ago, when the present pastor, the Rev.
Robert Watson, was called to this pas
torate from the Church Of the Cow
enant, of Cincinnati. .,
At no time has this church faced
more difficult parish problems, and no
former minister of the church has
given himself more completely to the
revitalizing Of his parish than has the
Rev. Mr.. Watson.
The following is the programme as
arranged for he week beginning to-
morrow morning at IL o'clock, with the
pastor presiding at all Of the services:

EXPORTS OF BEEF TO
NATIONS NOW AT WAR
PERILS SUPPLY IN u. s.

The war is encroaching seriously
on the meat supply of this country,
according to figures by the National
City bank.
Notwithstanding the marked de-
crease in the number of food animals
in the United States, exports of meat
have trebled since the war began and
of beef alone exports are greater by
tenfold.
The compilation shows that exports
of meat of all kinds, which amounted
to 445,000,000 pounds in 1914, the
year prior to the war, amounted to
885,000,000 in 1915 and 100000, 900
pounds in 1916.
The increase of 100 per cent in the
total meat exports during the first
year of the war and 200 per cent in
the second year is trifling when com
pared with the gain in beef exports
alone.
The quantity of fresh beef exported
jumped from 100000 pounds in 1914
to 17O,OOO,OOO in 1915 and 231 ,OOO,O
in 1916.
There it is in a nutshell. We pro-
duce so much that "our national bene-
factors" have to send it abroad and
America almost starves. What fools
we are!

HUGHES ATTACKS
EIGHT-HOUR LAW
URGED BY WILSON
Says Failure to Arbitrate Rail
Crisis Surrender of Federal
Authority

Charles E. Hughes has found a
new issue for the Republican party
in the eight-hour law passed by con-
gress for railroad employees. He de-
nounced this law in a speech because,
he charges, it is Intended to raise
wages and not to reduce hours.
He gave enthusiastic praise to the
principles of arbitration which he de-
clared had been abdicated by the ad-
ministration.
Can Not Surrender
eve can not afford to surrender
what we have won for our institutions
in this country" the nominee said.
What have we won? We have won
the right to free discussion, a free
press, a democratic form of govern
ment, free assemblage, free legisla-
lures and an executive chosen by the
people. We have left autocracy. We
have left tyranny. We have left force.
They shall not come back if we can
prevent It. te~
eve have recently seen what l re-
gard as very deplorable surrender
of that principle. am for the arbi-
tration of industrial disputes. That
is in the interests of labor. Labor
can not afford to surrender that prin-
ciple.
Law Raise Wage
eve have recently had at the pro-
posal of the executive an act passed
by congress, confessedly in ignorance
of the facts, confessedly in ignorance
of what justice demands. 1t is not an
eight-hour day law. 1t is wage law
and nobody knew whether it was just
or not.
"Now, l am for justice in every
thing but l propose that in all we do
we shall investigate first and then
legislate. Our methods in this coun-
try are of priceless Importance to us
because they are methods which con-
serve our peace.
"1t is only one step from peaceful
settlement of such disputes to the
denunciation of our courts and all the
machinery of peaceful settlement. 1t
is only another step to the abdication
of government itself"

H. w. Watts:

II. w. Watts:
Dear Comrade-Your letter and ad-
vertising received and have them up
in all the public places, especially in
the post office. / am very much
pleased with the posters and the way
you are handling the campaign. 1t
looks bright.
The people are ready for the change
and / feel certain that we will carry
our precincts. l am distributing the
Benson leaflets every week and /
know that quite a number have
changed their politics since reading
the leaflets.
The unexpected may happen this
fall. We may have perfect land
slide. This year reminds me of 1860.
No one expected to see Lincoln elect
ed but he was, with a good majority
and good following of congressman,
and it may happen this year again.
The old partyites are scared here
and do not know where the parties
will land.
Can you send US some other speak
ers later on?

Not Relieved b luation

Millers, jobbers and dealers in all
commodities used in manufacture of
bread have been called to athe office
of the United States district attorney.
In inquiries concerning the proposed
advance in bread prices only bakers
have been heard. They have main
tanned that the price of bread is de-
termined by the cost of commodities
used.
"This country has, according to
government reports, about 600,0O0,-
900 bushels. of wheat, which is just
about enough for consumption in our
own country" said Paul Schulze,
baker. eve carried surplus of per-
haps 100,000,00O bushels or more from
last years big crop, which is being
sold to Europe.
'The price Europe is bidding for
this surplus is the price the American
consumer has to pay for the 600,000,-
900 bushels that are consumed at
home.
"At the rate wheat is going out,
unless it will be soon stopped there
will be shortage in this country
and flour and wheat will be sold at
calamity prices.
eff the government would protect
the American consumer and put an
immediate embargo on the exporta-
ton of wheat, so that we would know
that we have enough for our own peo-
pie, the price would Immediately drop,
and perhaps the baker would be in a
position to continue to sell bread
without advancing his prices"
"Twenty years ago 25-pound sack
of standard flour was sold to the
housewife for 20 CENTS" said another
big bread maker. Lard was retailed
at cents to 10 cents pound, sugar
sold at cents and 6 cents a pound,
and bread in one-pound loaves was
selling at cents.
'Today a 25-pound sack of stand
ard flour is sold to the housewife at
$1.15 a sack, lard is selling at 18 cents,
sugar at s cents, and bread in three
quarters of pound loaves at cents"
For years the Republican and Dem
ocratic administrations have been do
ing something for "the people," but
still the same gang of plutocrats are
able to edo" "the people" out of the
wealth that labor has created. Com
mercialism compels these plutocrats
to send abroad that which the Ameri-
can workers have produced and in the
meantime these same workers pay
double and treble the price that they
paid years ago for the same kind of
commodities.

SPOK Observation-Disclosures
WAR VOTE ENDS IN FIZZL Il

The Spokesman4Review "straw"
ballot on Universal Military Train
ing" which that enterprising organ of
capitalism has gone mad over, and
has been carrying on for many weeks,
ended in a magnificent fizzle last
week.
They published their "grand total"
of vote for the whole of the Inland
Empire, last Sunday morning. The
Spokesman Review covers a district
having a population of 100000 to
100000 people, and their total vote
in favor of this proposition was 9,619.
To get this grand total, the Spokes-
man. Review boosted in its headlines
that ballots were received from 25
states" If such is the case, then it
would be fair to say that they received
these 9,619 votes out of a population
of 50,000,000 people.
