Plan to Care For Jewish
Soldiers With u. s. Army

All Jewish citizens of Harrisburg
VIII be interested to know that the
school for the training of field work
efs has just been opened at the Cen
tral Jewish Institute, New York City
Never before has such a rare oppor-
tunity been accorded Jewish men to
perform a service of such far-reach-
ing effect. Salaries ranging from $10O
to 5000 a month are to be paid, in
addition to furnishing uniforms, sub
sistence and necessary expenses.
What is most needed now is suita-
BILE material in tn eform of workers.
of whom 200 will be needed during
the year, to take care of the present
number of Jews, estimated at 10000.
In the armed forces of the United
states, but not allowin for the in
crease through the next draft.
The course at the school will first
aim to acquaint the workers with the
causes of Americas entrance into the
war and the ideals for which we are
fighting. The fact that the Jewish
religion has never taught nonresist-
ance to the forces of evil and that
Old Testament teachings are strongly
in favor of fighting for a righteous
cause is to be impressed upon the
field workers. 1t is expected to pro-
vide for the registration with the
American Jewish Committee of every
Jewish sailor and soldier and the
opportunity will be provided for ad-
vancement for the, field workers to
higher rating and higher pay than
they will receive on joining service
on the Welfare Board.

RAILWAY CHIEFS
HOLD CONFERENCE
WITH SEC. M'ADOO
Railroad, Labor and Finance
Questions Engage Attention
of Government Heads

Washington, Jan. 3. Railroad
labor and finance questions engaged
the attention of Director General
McAdoo and his staff to-day along
with the movement of coal to New
England and the East.
Heads of the four railway broth
erhoods were called into conference
to discuss the general employment
situation under government opera
ton. Although the union chiefs had
no intention of pressing their de-
mands for forty per cent higher pay
at this time, 1t is understood their
case will be taken up along with
many other wage matters as soon as
the railroad administration has dis
posed of the more pressing trans
portation problem. Many railroad
executives are prepared to recon-
mend a general increase, especially
for unorganized labor to prevent the
men from going to other industries
where wages are better.
John Shelton Williams comptroller
of the currency, and the director
generals adviser on railroad finan-
cial questions, discussed with Mr..
McAdoo the situation which will
develop soon when railroad COM
panies' bonds and other obligations
lall que.
A plan will be worked out by
which the debts may be either re-
funded with other securities which
the government may buy or may
meet with funds already reserved for
the purpose and paid under the
supervision OF the director sener..,
and the Interstate Commerce Com d.
mission. Final arrangement will de-
pend much on the legislation Con-
gress enacts.
Since Director General McAdoo
became head of a unified and gov
ernm nment-controlled railroad system
a week ago the main tangible result
has been the acceleration of coal
shipments and a beginning of the
clearing up of congestion in railroad
yards by abolition of all priority
orders. Surveys also are under way
looking to a practical pooling ar
rangement.

Marine Warmest Dressed
of u. S. Fighting Men
Ru lfsSocinfed PreSS

Washington, Jan. 3.-The American
marine is the warmest dressed of all
Americas fighting men, the Senate
military committee learned to-day
from Michael A. Driscoll, cloth eN-
pert from Rar.tan, \. j., and the Ger
man trooper in his gray dawn" uni
form has clothing so per cent. heav-
ier and warmer and more costly than
the American soldier.
\ worn, stained scrap of gray cloth.
cut from the oVercoat of the first
German prisoner taken by General
Pershings men, was held up to the
view of the committee for eXamina-
ton: The committees investigation
to-day tarned on the much disputed
point of whether "shoddy" mixed
with wookis good for soldiers over
coat.
Mr.. Driscoll agreed with previous
witnesses from the Council of Ma
tional Defense that there was little
difference in effect and that the cloth
ing with "reworked wooP mixed in
was cheaper. He favored heavier uni
forms for the men in Europe.
