ment to his ability and that he will

requirements, as for years he has been
a dIligent student of the growing work
of home missions and church extension.

Explaining that the object of the bill
was the mobilization of labor. the min
lister declared that. instead of the lack
of employment which prevailed at the
beginning of the war, there was now
a positive lack of labor. especially in

materials of all kinds. He said that
the bill is intended to assure the suS-
tenance of the laboring population, ana
that compulsion would only be used
as a last resort and was not needed
for women. THE bill must prove TO
the whole world he said, Germanys
determination to fight with all her
forces to the uttermost.
Gen. Grouner pointed out that the
exertions of the British minister OF
