The arst was 10 win the war: the sec
ond. 10 win it in the shortest possible
time, and the third. to sacrifice the
minimum number OF lives. To this END
every available resource was being or
ganized 10 safeguard her soldiers and
sailors and to develop the highest pos
s,blc character of her fighting men;
n soldier could be made or unmade by
the character Of the training camp en-
vironment. To determine the charse-
ter of this environment, and thus TO
conserve the spirit Of the young man
hood Of our country. which was TO
represent Us on the battle fronts Of
Europe, he added, was the purpose Of
the War Camp Community Recreation
Fund.
Mr.. Rockefeller said that there was
need for an increase in the fraternal
work with the men while away from

which New York has been asked to
contribute a quarter. is the minimum
that will be required TO carry out the

CONGRESS GOING
ON THE WAR STUMP
viii Make Speeches Saying We
Are Fighting For Future.

Washington, Aug. 10.-Congress may
turn itself into a great Chautauqua
when it finishes work here to enlighten
every section of the country on the
need for prosecuting the war vigorous
ly, not only as a war for world de-
mOcracy. but as fight for American
rights and preservation.
President Wilson himself may "dc
his bit" in the same direction, possibly
by a speech on some occasion or by
letter 10 congressional leaders.
Plans are in a nebulous state, but
all the undercurrent in off1cialquarters
was toward such a move.
Congress leaders were talking OF
practically putting congress on the
stump by asking every representative
and senator to go through his district
during the recess. speaking the part
of the United States in the war and
mphasizing that the United States
is fighting for the fu. dre, not Of the
world, but of itself
Those>who favor the plan point out
that the country is hearing many agt
tators who oppose the draft and partt
cipation in the war They think the
fathers and mothers who are giving
sons to the colors should hear some
thing on the other side OF the question
