'DR. MOTT PRAISES
GIVERS TO ~ FUND
War Work Councils Executive Dis
jcusses Campaigns Success.

DIR. John r. Mott, general secre-
tary Of the National War Work
Council OF the Y. NJ. C. A.. which
closed its campaign last Monday
night for $3j 10000 to further the
work among soldiers and sailors,
was in Washington yesterday con-
ferring with government officials on
enlarging plans growing out Of this
great Campaign. In speaking OF the
success of the campaign. DR.. Mott
made the following statement:
The sweeping past the $4,000. 900
goal and reaching a total that al
ready somewhat exceeds $50, ,000, 900 is
one Of the most striking feats in the
history of war benevolence. The hope
expressed by President Wilson that
this campaign might be characterized
by such unaniInity and unity in eff
forts and in gifts as would ensure it
abundant success has been fully
realized. The American people took
the matter into their own hands and
carried it beyond all goals.
The reasons why 1t is most fortu-
nate that the fund is so largely over
subscribed are:
"First-The recent developments on
the Eastern and Southern fronts
have made 1t clear that We must
render 4 far more extensive service
TO the armies OF our allies in these
regions. Second-The call which
came from the prime minister Of
France that We help to operate 1900
soldiers homes for the French army
cannot be denied. Third-The great
increase in the number OF prisoners
of war makes necessary our doing
far more for this much neglected and
needy class. Fourth-The constant
development of plans of our own
government multiplies the demands
upon US for constructive service of
the American enlisted men,"
