W0MEMS HELP IN WAR
PRAISED BY Mr.. DANIELS
Says Struggle Cannot Be Conducted
Without Coordination of Vol
untary Workers.

Women are in this war because war
cannot be conducted without Them"
said Secretary Daniels yesterday in
an address at meeting of the
woman's advisory committee on naval
auxiliaries, held at Red Cross head
quarters. The Secretary. while express
ing appreciation of the spirit and value
of all voluntary effort. urged co-ordi-
nation of work.
I'm getting coordination" he said.
Eve must not lose the spontaniety and
the enthusiasm and the zeal of individ-
uals, but they must be harnessed to or
ganiZation. Some time ago a very pa
triotic organization announced that I'M
less a certain number of sweaters were
sent within a certain time, the marines
would freeze. Now, the spirit back of
that was to stimulate good feeling and
help, but it did more harm than good.
because the men in charge of that great
service had not neglected their duty.
The impression got out somehow or an
other that the Secretary of the Navy,
the Secretary of War and the head OF
the marine service did not appreciate
the splendid service women rendered
OF course, it was a mistake"

new PEACE APPEAL
NOT PLAN OF POPE
Cardinal Gasparri Answers
Numerous Criticisms Direct
ed at Vatican's Attitude.
AGAINST PRAYER CHAINS

By the Associated Press.
ROME, Tuesday, November .-Ine
papal secretary of state. Cardinal Gaspai-
ri, answering the numerous criticisms re-
garding the Vatican's peace attitude. issueo
to the press today the following state
ment:
THE holy father is not preparing any
new appeal looking toward peace. HIS
earnest desire, many times manifested iof
a Just, Christian and durable peace. is I'M
changed and cannot change. VINO can
crave anything else and call himsei
Christian?
ITO say that his holiness favors, or mas
favored, or will favor an unjust. un-Chrls-
tian and undurable peace is not only 1alse'
but also absurd. Any propaganda LOT
such peace. alleged to be conducted at
the Vatican's inspiration, especially IN GER
tain nations, is the product Of pure ma
liciousness."
Warns Against Prayer Chains.
A chain of prayers has always been
reprobated by the holy see and bishops ana
priests in the United States of America and
elsewhere are warned against them, par
ticularly those having any such propa-
ganda behind them.
Also, American Catholics and others
are cautioned that such prayers are
species of superstition.
THE Catholic Church has always re-
garded true patriotism as Christian
duty and a Christian virtue. and still
so teaches. The fact that the Italian
parliament has had warm eulogy for
the clergy should be sufficient to refute
the calumnies which irresponsible per-
sons have circulated and are circulat-
ing in the foreign world. Malicious in
situations propagated in America and
the tendency to attribute in great part
to the Italian clergy responsibility for
the recent situation must be denounced.
In Italy no fair-minded person is at
tributing the situation to the clergy
Labor Against Propaganda.
when the descriptive propaganda
began to affect the morale of the 1tal-
ian army the clergy in general. and
also the army chaplains. following the
instructions and the example of the
chaplain-in-chief. labored to counter
act it and elevate the morale of the
troops More than once the army chap
lains informed the chapla in in chief,
who informed the supreme civil au-
thorities of the descriptive movement
that was creeping in-and all that long
before the publication of the papal
note.
THE true causes of the recent Italian
reverseS are perfectly well understood
in Italy. and the shoulders on which
rests the responsibility of the reverses
certainly does not touch Catholics, the
clergy, and, least of all. the august
person of the sovereign pontiff.
I'm one case the holy see has ordered
the suppression of newspaper con-
tanning imprudent observations.

the naval board of inquiry inyesti-
eating the disaster, had ordered into

suspected of setting the bomb which
Is believed to have caused the explo-

Koslowski today stoutly denied any
knowledge OF the causes OF the ex-

made application at the navy yard
for enlistment as recruit, but de-
clared that when rejected by the
recruiting officers, had left the yard
Immediately. He said his home is at

that he registered June 6 in precinct

Members of the board of inquiry
still maintain silence, so far as news
paper men are concerned, but it is
reported that they have unearthed
enough pieces of clock work mechan-
ism to make possible the reconstruc-
ton Of the whole machine. Whether
the clock work found is really part
of an Internal machine or merely the
alarm clock of Commander Mckinney
who was killed by the explosion, is
not known.

WASHINGTON, July 12.-Steel
makers of the nation today promised
to heed President Wilson's warning
against extorting blood money in big
profits on their products. Meeting
with government chiefs, representa-
tives of all the steel interests offered
to place their plants at government
disposal and accept price on their
products to be fixed later. This price
will be in keeping with President
Wilson's idea of a patriotic margin.
This will insure reasonable profits
and will be based upon expanding
needs of this vital and fundamental
industry.

ton:

had of prospective demands upon the
steel industry of the country for
supplies of various steel products
for carrying on the war.
The steel men repeated their as
surance that their entire product
would be available for the needs and
that they We're doing everything pos
J sible to stimulate an increased pro-
duction and speed delivery. The
price to be paid for the iron and
steel products was left to be deter
mined after the inquiry Of the fed

with the understanding that the
price, when fixed, would insure rea-
sonable profit and be made with ref
erence to the expanding needs of this
