CHURCH FIGHT ON VICE URGED
 BY METHODISTS

SARATOGA. N. r., May lS.--A na- tion wide campaign against the illicit sale of drugs and against commercial- ized vice was proposed at the ses. sion of the general conference of the Methodist Episcopal church.
 Dr. Abraham A. Harris, president of the Northwestern University. who served on the Chicago vice commit tee, introduced the resolution pro posing the change of the name of the temperance and prohibition com mittee to that of temperance, pro- hibitlon. and public morals.' This change of name will give the com mittee the necessary authority to con. duct the campaign in every city and town in the country through the local churches and conferences.
 Urges a Firm Stand
 In his speech favoring the cam. paign Dr. Harris said;
 "We ought to make a clear and ringing statement against dope and prostitution. The Methodist church got into the fight against the liquor traffic when that kind of a campaign was unpopular We will witness the prohibition of that traffic within a few years.
 "There is sprlnging up in our cit les an Illicit sale of harmful drugs, morphine and cocaine, that Is becom- ing a grave public danger. In Chica- so, there were 10000 persons addict ed to the drug habit that received treatment in the public institutions at the time when the federal law went into effect"
 Called Peril To Future
 In the preamble of Dr. Harris res olution the social evil is termed "a crying shame to the state and church and menace to this and coming generations"

CANADA CONTINUES PREPARATION FOR LONG
 EUROPEAN CONFLICT

NE wYoRK, May 1S.-Whatever may be the opinions here as to the duration of the war, there is no lag. ging in Canada in preparations for the continuation of the conflict. A contract has recently been closed with one of leading construction con cerns in this country for the first unit of government munitions fac tory at Lindsay, Ontario. which may eventually run into a very large ex- penditure. At the same time there is no lot up In the effort to recruit another 100000 men in addition to the 100000 already sent. Assuming that the Dominion authorities are in- formed of the views of the British governments heads as to the period during which the war may last, these policies do not indicate any belief in an early conclusion of hostilities which so many in ithe Wall Street district place at the end of this year.
