Renewed appeals from General
Pershing and General Foch. together

suited in a new drive by the National
War Work Council Of the Y. NJ. c. A..

men most needed in France today.
says an announcement received here
today BY Lorenzo X. Wood. Secretary
of the local Young Mems Christian
Association. "The v NJ. G. A. Is bgs-
ing lis appeal for men on the ground
that there is no job in France too
small for the biggest man IN any
American community. The Y. NJ. c.
A. workers in France have had to be-
come a part Of the military machine
Gen. Pershing relies on the Associa-
ton 20 keep up the morale Of the
troops so that with military training
they may become the most efficient
fighting machines that ever went in
20 active war service.
First Of all. there is pressing de-
mand for men who are neutral lead
ers, men who are real men, good mix
ers and capable Of eXcrting the prop
er influence. The leaders generally
are assigned rs hut secretaries, IN
which position they will require YER

must be above the fighting age, but
must be able to undergo as search

the man admitted to the combat
branches Of the services.
Ambassador Sharp, in recent APP
peal for more workers, emphasized
the fact that many were breaking
under the terrific strain.
THAT is the answer to tnose who
regard the Y. NJ. c. A. as paradise
for pacifists, a refuge for slackers.
We can use none Of them in our
service. At least one in eight or
