GERMANS IN
 LATIN AMERICA

Under the cover of diplomacy it is likely that strange things are occur ring in the capitals of Latin America. In the cities to the south the diplo- mats and other agents of Germany are engaged in a warfare almost is important to the future of the Teu- tonic Empire as that which is being fought on the battlefields of Europe. With the assurance that, after the war, she will long be shut out of most of the worlds important markets, Germany is now making a last stand for the commerce of South and Gen. tral America and Mexico.
 While the masses of the people of most of the Latin American republics are strongly pro-Ally, there are >indi- cations that the Germans have gained the ascendency among the most infIu- ential officials of some of the import ant states. Germany had tremendous interests in South America before the war, and these will become vastly more important and vital when the struggle is ended, and Germany finds herself almost friendless
 That Germany has long planned a challenge to the Monroe doctrine by attempting to gain a protectorate over the more fruitful part of South Am erica has long been alleged. Argen- tina, Chile, Uruguay, Paraguay, and the southern parts of Brazil and Be- 1ivia, are said to be the countries over which Germany has sought to gain the aseendency, In Rio Gfande do Su1, the southern state of Brazil and enc of the most productive, German colOnists are now in practical control,

who are standing by their adopted country.
 But one can be sure also that some things that look perfectly innocent really mean mischief. The little tum- b1e down shop in some back city alley where they apparently are turning out some trifling industrial by-product, may be the place where deadly bombs are being made for some wholesale destruction.
 A great many ridiculous errors will be made. Engineers measuring a lot, telephone and wire gangs locating ser- vices, will be regarded by some one as spies. The police will come run ming breathless to question them. But people who seem to be taking obser- vations and who are lurking in places where their business is not apparent and where they might do damage, will have to be watched.
 The United States will have to re- sort to the measures long ago enforc- ed abroad for the registration of aliens. There should be correct lists of unnaturalized foreigners, their ad- dresses and business. No unoffending man will be hurt by such registration, and valuable information will be se- cured.

SPY SYSTEMS

The elaborate working out of spy systems in Europe is appalling to the simple hearted and open American mind. These tnsidious ways of the Old World are revo1ting to our frank CT methods of procedure. Our secret service has been merely a scheme for detecting crime.
 Over in Europe it is a vast mechan- ism for securing military information influencing opinion in foreign coun- tries, stirring up strikes, revolutions land all kinds of troubles for peoples regarded as hostile. Our military posi- ton is no doubt understood quite. as we'll in Berlin as in Washington.
 Warfare with Germany means ar unknown and insidieus force of infer nation gathsrers and p1otters right among us Ne one can know where 1t is or whom it includes. A great deai of injustice will be done on suspicion to many loyal German-Americans

Patriotism and religion joined hands in the dedication in New York of the tabernacle at Broadway and One Hun dred and Sixty eighth street, in which Billy Sunday is to begin his three months revival on April 8. Easter Sunday. The union of Protestant de- nominations in support of the Sunday campaign was referred to as an object lesson for those who hesitate to sink partisan interests for the nations need, and both Governor Whitman and Biship Luther B. Wilson, the prin- cipa1 speakers. referred to the inn perative demand for national unity
 An enormous crowd witnessed, the opening. The auditorium, which seats more than 16,00O, was full and many hundreds stood around the waist high barrier that walls off the roofed lob 5bies about the building.

AHE DISABILITIES
 OF THE JEWS

To the Hebrew race among us. the overthrow of the Russian despotism means a. great deal. It signifies that in the center of the greatest Jewish population, this struggling race is ap- parently to get a legal equality. This must affect the status of the race all over the world.
 In this country the Jews have every legal and political right and occupy a prominent place in the business world They still suffer social restric- tions.f There are hotels, particularly thAse at public pleasure resorts, that will not receive them.
 The persecuted condition of the Tace in Russia has been a drag on it's progress all over the world. The re- suit of the indigniHes which they suf- fered in that country was to create in their minds a feeling of hostility to the Christian. peoples. Having been persecuted, his property destroyed and This life endangered, it was natural enough that the Jew should feel it legitimate to get back at his tormen- tors in anyway he could, usually by getting the better of him financially.
 The Jews driven from Russia came over here in an ignorant condition, |embittered against the Christians, dis Fposed to take advantage of them where they could. In that frame of mind it was perhaps natural that they should be unpopular. Education is the great remedy for condition like this, and the wise leaders of the He- brew people urge 1t. School and col 1ege life has a wonderful power for removing race friction. Many of the young people going through our schools have all the incisive mind and unbounding energy of their blood, without those harder traits that grew Esp in years of bondage and suffering.

JUST THRIFT FIGURES
(By w. J. Peck)


 good thrift reporter lately made a tour of Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago, and two of the smaller New England cities-Bridgeport and Waterbury, Conn. Out of his collection of notes, the following impressive figures, showing the tremendous extent of savings in widely separated sections, are taken:
 According to the latest available report, 25 saving banks and trust com- panies of Cleveland had over $247,- OOO,0OO of deposits. One purely saN- ings institution of that city had $61,- 22O,0O0 belonging to over 109,OOO de- psitors Another Cleveland bank with 71,OOO savings accounts is receiving from 60 to 400 new accounts daily.
 At the end of February, savings de- posits in the state banks within the limits of the City of Chicago totaled over $262, 2,OOO,OO0. This was a gain in three months of over $5,000,OO0. Another $53,OOO,O0O of savings IS held by Chicago trust companies.
 A single savings bank in Detroit showed an increase of depositors in the year 1916 from 38,4S3 to 44,909, and a boost in savings from nearly SIS, 3,50O,000 to nearly SIG, 100000. That banks gain in January, 1917, was $75O,OOO. In all Detroit's State banks (which have savings deposits)~ the thrifty increased their Store i n1916 from about $111,OOO,OOO to about $133, 3,O00,o00, or a 20 per cent. gain. The average deposit is about $363, as compared with $561 in Cleveland.
 Through an intensive campaign by a crew of trained thrift workers, a Detroit savings bank within a few weeks secured 7,500 new depositors, and another bank recently celebrated it's first birthday by putting 5000 new names on it's books.
 The savings department of a Water bury, Conn, trust company, paid out on December Is, 1916, to 8,400 mem bers of a Christmas savings club the sum of $21S,S8S.02

2,500. Although it was the ushers' first experience with a crowd or at passing the tin collection plates, they beat the four minute cash gathering record by full minute. The offer ing was for campaign expenses. Only $45,Q00 has been subscribed toward the $15O,000 that will be needed.
 The crowd seemed to be mostly en- thusiastic church folk, but the loudest applause was won by appeals to patriotism and mention of the flag. With the sun beating on the flat, tarred roof the temperature inside was uncomfortab1y high, but only one person tainted, and he was promptly removed by four ushers.
 For the first time in more than a year John D. Rockefeller, IT,, ad- dressed his Bible class at the Fifth Avenue Baptist church. His speech was an appeal for support for Billy Sunday. Eight hundred men were present, the largest attendance ever

recorded, a very large number having been added recently through the pre- liminary Bible class work of the Rev. George G. Dewey for the Sunday cam paign.
 MT. Rockefeller said he hoped his class would go in a body to the Sun day meetings to testify to their sup port of ''an earnest, sincere man who is doing Gods work-a great evange- list, messenger of God"
 Many good men are siding against MT. Sunday because they dislike his methods he said, "but why should they consider that so long as he brings men to Christ? Our churches do not lay hold of the masses of the people. If he can touch them there is just one place for me, and that is at his back"
