Washington. April l9.--Complete re-
Mobilization of the crippled Russian rail-
way systems by large corps of trained
American railway men will be the direct
and early result of an appeal to the pres

Plans to lend the Russian government

formulated, but American aid is to go
still further and make effective the ex-

BY these means and others, which are

OUAKERS ARE PACIFISTS
But They Are Not Passivisfs, According
to Official Statement.

Richmond, Ind, April l9.-American
Quakers are paeifsts but not passivists
according to a statement from the central
office of the Five Years Meeting of
Friends in America, issued here yester-
DAG by Walter G. Woodward, general sec
rotary. The Friends may be expected to
maintain their historic position against
war, he declares, both as matter OF
principle and of policy They are none
the less loyal to the government and will
be found doing their bit in ways con
sonsnt with their convictions. Attention
is called to heroic and sacrificing
service rendered by English Friends in
Belgium, France and Russia, as indica-
tive of the practical, constructive serv-
ice that may be expected of the disciples
of George Fox on this side of the Allan
tic. A nationwide organization of
Friends toward this end is projected. Mr..
Woodward's statement follows:
1.-THE Friends in America enter VII or
Gus protest against the tendency in the
present crisis to identify pacifism with
disloyalty. There may be disloyal pa
cifists, but we maintain that the history
of Quakerism should place its pacifism
above suspicion. We Friends are pacif-
lists, but not passivists. We believe all
war wrong as a matter of principle and
wrong as matter of policy, and must
therefore refrain from bearing arms. We
are Conscientious objectors,' but we are
more. We do not propose to stop with
Directing. Though against war, Friends
are for the nation and humanity, for

The Hague, April l7,via London, Apri
l9.--How urgent is the yearning fol-
peace among the German people and how
great is the increased strain just I'M
posed on them in consequence of the re.
duction OF the bread ration may be
Judged fpom the exhortations and the
pictures of woeful alternatives published
in provincial newspapers on the inaugu-
ration of the curtailment of the bread
supply.
The Courier of Hanover, for example,
represents that quicker but unsatisfac-
tory peace would not lead to better
food supply.
The people are told that Great Britain,
France, Italy and even the United States
are reckoning with world famine for the
current year and that in case of a prema-
these countries for their own needs would
these countries for their own needs would
prevent the supplying of Germany with
foreign foodstuffs.
The Courier portrays the British peo-
pie as paying the highest grain prices
of a century and declares that the Ger
mans are situated more favorably than
those who planned to starye them, not
being menaced by bad world crop and
rapidly sinking ship tonnage.
If, however, the blockade of Germany
should succeed through lack of econom-
les, the newspaper says, "our people
would have not only time of bitter
hunger, but long period of the lowest
wages and the most painful enfeeble-
ment.
"Then while France, Italy and Russia
carried off Alsace, Lorraine, Triest, the
Trentino, Constantinople and big Aus
tria Hungarian provinces as the price of
victory, Great Britain would undertake
the long planned annexation of our eco
monte riches.
''Bread would be dear and wages low
for our entire laboring population. We
must, therefore, muster all our strength,
clench our teeth and, remembering the
sacrifices and sufferings of our men folk
in the field, hold out and take up this
new food sacrifice"

which they are prepared to suffer and to
sacrifice. They are ready to prove their
patriotism no less than their pacifism.
As proof that this has been their rec.
ord in the past, Friends point to their
course through the Civil war. Though
they could not as body enter the mill
tary service, they rendered invaluable aid
to the government in other ways and no
people were regarded as more loyal. In
the present war, the English Friends,
through various kinds of constructive re-
lief work, both at home and on the con-
tinent and financed and manned by them
selves, have commanded the respect and
commentator of the world. Their 10y
atty is beyond doubt.
CAS- a national organization we are al
ready taking steps toward Quaker mo-
bilization.' The young men of our col
leges are being called upon, some for hos
pital service and for relief work. Others
will serve in the fields of industry and
agriculture, yet others in the Young
Mems Christian association at the front.
A systematic canvass of the church will
be made to secure adequate funds for va
rious phases of war relief, to be carried
on both here and abroad. Since with
them this work is matter of conscience,
and since they cannot directly or indi-
rectly participate in war such service as
the majority of them render cannot be
performed under the auspices of the mill
tary branch of the government. The
doctrine of Quakerism is
that of the inviolability Of the individual
conscience. We do not therefore presume
to tell our members what they shall do
or not do, as individuals, but in the as
surance that in the present as in the
past, Friends will render their full meas
ure of DEVOTION we confidently pledge
the Friends in America to this, their i'm
mediate task"

GERMAN CASH
USED TO BALK
CARRANZISTAS
Would Replace Mexico's Neutrality with
German Mexican Alli-

Ell Paso, Tex, April l9,An explana-
ton of the opposition reported to have
taken place on the floor of the Mexican
House of Deuties to Carranza's neutrali-
ty plans was brought here yesterday
by an arrival from the Mexican capital.
According to his account, German prop
agandists are conducting an open lobby
against the Carranza plan among depu-
ties, using money freely to secure the
support of legislators for German Mex
lean alliance.
The informant requested that his name
be withheld, as he is returning to Mex
leo.
According to his statement, the strife
over the neutrality plan was directly
inspired by proGerman sources. He as
serted that several deputies are openly
advocating German Mexican alliance
in opposition to the United States, while
rumors that certain deputies have "sold
out" TO the German influence is common
talk in Mexico City.

ing the most present danger to the cause
of the civilized world against German
autocracy. Money is recognized as the
greatest need of the new Russian govern.
ment to maintain its credit, sustain its
position and munition the armies in the
field; but one of the greatest causes OF
Russian disaster and activity has been
the demoralized condition OF the trans
port system, which appears to have
broken down at every emergency
To correct this defect, plans are be-
ing made to send more than 800 trained
American railroad men to Russia to or.
ganize and operate her railroads with
the efficiency that has built up the
American systems.
The American railroad men would be
chosen from all the lines and would be
taken from all branches of the service,
operating, mechanical, traffic and execu-
tive. Virtually all the labor needed is
available in Russia, but it lacks expert
direction.
1t is said that millions'of dollars worth
of supplies for the army and food for
the civil population lie useless in the
congestion of the traffic in Russia.

COTTAGE CHEESE
FROM WASTE
SKIM MILK
Delicious and Nourishing Food Can Be
Made-The Way Ex-
planned.

Cottage cheese, delicious and nourish,
ing food, can be made from skim milk
which might otherwise go to waste, say
the dairy specialists of the u. s. depart
ment of agriculture. After removing the
cream for coffee, the skim milk that is
not needed for buildings, gravies, etc,
can easily be made into cottage cheese.
If the milk is sweet it should be placed in
q pan and allowed to remain in a clean,
! warm place at temperature of about Is
degrees until it clabbers. The clabbered
milk should have a clean, sour flavor.
Ordinarily this will take about AZ hours,
but when it is desirable to hasten the
process small quantity of clean favored
soured milk may be mixed with the sweet
milk. As soon as the milk has thickened
to the consistency OF thin jelly, it should
be cut into pieces the size OF walnut
after which the curd should be stirred
thoroughly with spoon.
Place the pan OF broken curd in ket-
tie of hot water so as to raise the tenn
perature to 100 degrees +. Cook at that
temperature for about 20 minutes, during
which time stir vigorously with spoon
for one minute at five minute intervals.
AT the conclusion OF the heating, pour
the crd and whey into small cheese
bag Ia clean salt bag will do nicely and
hang the bag on a fruit strainer rack to
drain. After five or ten minutes, work
the curd toward the center with spoon.
Raising and lowering the ends OF the
bag helps TO make the whey drain faster.
To complete the draining, tie the ends of
the bag together and hang it up. Since
there is some danger that the curd will
become too dry, draining should stop
when the whey ceases to flow in steady
stream The curd is then emptied from
the bag and worked with spoon or butter
paddle until it becomes fine in grain, |
smooth and of the consistency of mashed
potatoes. Sour or sweet cream NAV be
added also to increase the smoothness, |
and flavor. Then it is sailed |
according to taste, about one-quarter
ounce to a pound of curd
Don't waste any skim milk; make it
INTO cottage cheese.
