Europe has had four years of war, that millions of men have been killed and wounded, that the nut nitions workers, men and women, have labored as never before, that life has become infinitely more com plex, that few promises of 1914 have been fulfilled, even in 1917 ana that no government can long survive unless it shows successes.
 1t would be wrong to believe that the great body working in the belligerent nations for peace is composed of pacifists. The profes- sional pacifists are doing little now. They think it unnecessary, and that it would injure the move ment if they identified themselves prominently with it.
 Every speech the European states men are making these days shows that they, too ,are modifying their views, and that the leaders are lett ing the people down by degrees. This is apparent in the kaiser's last utterance and in Lloyd Georges anniversary speech, but events are moving so rapidly that the leaders

 But the great change in the last two months does not mean peace unless it is peace which the people consider honorable. There are few quitters in Europe. The people have sacrifed too much to fear sacrificing more if they con- slider it necessary. It is not be cause Europe fears another winter so greatly that it is rushing into peace. The people that, is, the Socialists, labor and a lot of others, want to exhaust all the possibilities of negotiation before they decide that they must fight further.

HEBREWS PREPARE
FOR YOM KIPPUR
ANDATONEMENT

Thousands OF Washington Hebrews
today prepared for the coming of Yom
Kippur. the Jewish Day Of Atone
ment, which will begin at the setting
of the sun tomorrow evening and will
last for twenty-four hours.
Yom Kippur is the holiest day in
the Jewish religious calendar. and 1t
is the great Fast of Israel for both
orthodox and reform branches of the
Jewish faith. The devout Jew. how
ever, spends the entir- day in the
synagogue, and a memorial service in
memory Of the departed usually forms
a part of the DAYS observance.
The Day of Atonement is the day
for Jews to turn from the sin and
suffering of the world toward a clean
and virtuous life. The atonement is
designed for priest and people alike,
as the priest, under the Jewish doc
trine. has no intercessory powers be-
tween the people and God. Yom Kip
pur, according to the official Jewish
understanding OF the day. offers the
divine hand of forgiveness to those
who humbIy turn TO God"
The outstanding features of the
day will be services in all synagogues
during the evening Of tomorrow and
all day Wednc .i;.y. Members of the
faith will eat nothing for the TWEEN
ty-four-hour period and will also abb
stain from work.
