RELIGIOUS UNITY
BY Webster.
BY DIR. FRANK CRANE
teopYneHr tsts. - "a FRANK GRAMS

In a letter from Il gentleman connected with the welfare work
Tor the army fad th, statement
II have seen an amazing thing happen here.
con September 9th the president issued his letter requesting that
the seven agencies engaged in war work unite their campaign. ia the
ceived, five representatives of each agency-thc y. N. {. A., Y. ". G.
A., National Catholic War Council, Jewish Welfare Board, American
Library Association, War Camp Community Service, and The Saliva.
ton Army-1met in DIR. Mott S office. lie was nominated for Director
General by Mr.. John q. Agar. representing the Catholics, and his
nomination seconded by Mr.. Mortimer H. Sehif, representing the
Jews
In this week have seen these agencies, which before have re.
gardcd themselves somewhat as competitors in good work. absolutely
opening up TO each other and putting aside all personal considerations
in the promotion of the united idea.
- believe, If the country can catch that spirit Of enthusiasm,
that this united drive is going to do more for the UNION of the religious
people Of all crccds in this country than the last hundred years OF
discussion has done
This indicates one of the most significant developments IN the re-.
igous life of America and one of the most hopeful cvoluthons Of tho
twentieth century.
In some way the scattered and contcnding organizations through
which the religious life of the nineteenth century expressed itself must
come together. Moral conviction and the instinct Of helpfulness are
not the property of any one denomination. They are the common he--
itage of humanity.
They express themselves ia service. not in opnion. In service,
there is no rivalry. Ia service and love is the only field of perma.
ncnt unity.
Out of the seourge of war not the least helpful by product that
is appearing is this drawing together of all secis, this realization on
the part of religious organizations that the suresi way 10 win the ap.
proYal of Him who rules and judges Ms all, no matter by what name
He be called n with what rites He be woTshipped, is to do our full
duty toward One of the least of there, my brethren. -
Only by the vision ot this truth shall We come into the unity of
the Spirit whsh is the bond of peace, and escape from the wnLo'-
the-wiNp of unity of opinion which can be but the bond Of contention.

every Que of tie nations in alliance against

problems. the list of these problems is truly form

Us threatening u front as any German army has
been able to show since the lanks and tanks got
fairly into action.
just how careful and thorough this preparation
for reconstruction has been by our allies in war who
will shortly be our competitors in peace, Is indicated
by u recent exhaustive report by the British gov
eminent, made through u ministerial ommittce, on
the requirements of and need for foreign languages
in England after the war. This commission appears
to have gone 10 the very bottom of the probable re-
quircmcnts for men and women in home business
and foreign trade who can speak foreign languages,
and the number and probable disposition OF the
masters of each language.
All that the United States has done in this di-
rection is TO copy the British report in a bulletin Of
the department of commerce.
England is determining now the steps ncces-
sary 10 take 10 insure an output from its schools
of sufficient numbers of mea and women TO meet

The point of particular interest to New Mexico
III the British report is the marked emphasis placed
upon the probable requirement 70, men and women
who can read, speak and think the Spanish Ian
guage. The report, which is admirable in its thor
o~ughness, points out that South America is bound
to become the great competitive field of trade explo-
ration and development. The report eliminates
both the German competition and the German
language from any important place in the South
American field. II points 10 Spanish as the official
and commercial language of nearly all of the ma
tions south of the Rio Grande, and urges the British
government TO extend Immediately the availability
of Spanish courses which will turn out men and
women who have a complete command of the lam
auagc.
The United States should have the unbeatable
handicap in competing for South American trade
after the war has been won. When South Amcri.
can trade first became a valuable thing we permit
ted Germany TO grab il aud virtually shut MS out.

Our Economic Paci6sts
CREE TRADE ncwspapers WHO opposc prepar.

TREE TRADE newspapers who oppose prcpar-
edneSs fOr afier-war commercial conditions,
undertake To convince uS that our present
vast volume of exports represents a permanent eX-
pansion of our foreign sales. The most casual
analysis, however, demonstrates that these exports
are of foods and war materials, almost exclusively,
and that the doubled price of commodities has much
to do with the swelling volume of these exports, as
expressed in terms of dollars. The Springfield,
Mass, Republican, an organ of the free trade per
suasion, states 1t thus;
1.-The foreign trade of the United States, valued
in dollars, is certainly phenomenal under war con
ditionS. Q High prices account somewhat
for the showing, yet it is a fact that the country's
foreign trade is Il being maintained remarkably well,
and this means a source of sustained economic
strength.
Unfortunately it is not a fact and to say that
this means a source of sustained economic
strength is simply economic fooIishness. 1t is
Grand is certainly phenomenal under flood condi-
tions and promises well for a full river for irriga-
ton after the floods are over.
Instead of war conditions operating against a
large volume of expectations, they are responsible
for it, and they are of such a character that when
the war ends. these operations will end.
AT the same time the increased importations,
raising over f~orty-six millions of dollars in August
this year over all previous records, represent to u
considerable extent u permanent displacement of
domestic production. Everyone but the economic
p%acifist. the foe of national industrial preparedness,
will he alarmed rather than pleased by an increase
in lmportatiOns which represent displacement of
normal domestic production, while the increase IN
exports represents a war production which VIII
terminate when the war ends.

Returns After
Firing The First
Shot on Austria
~ Associated Press.N

An Atlantic Port, Jan. 4.-Repre-
sentative George Holden Tinkham OF
Massachusetts,, who is credited with
firing the first shot sent against
Austria by an American gun on Dec.
IL while on a visit to the Italian
front, arrived here today on a French
steamship. Mr.. Tinkham said he
fired the shot at the invitation of a
colonel commanding a battery engag-
ed in stemming the advance of the
Teutonic forces on the lower Piave.
He added that while he did not know
the results of the shot, he was con-
WINGED the shell, which was from a
14g millimeter gun, struck " in a
place where it would do the most
good:
Mr.. Tinkham did not come out I'M
sCathed from his visit to Italy. He
returns with one arm in a sling for
a broken finger and his head in
bandages for Commissions received
when an automobile in which he was
riding at night along a she'll torn
road skidded and plunged over a 30
foot embankment.
Mr.. Tinkham. who also visited the
French firing line. said that the
situation is critical, and the success
full outcome of the war depends up
on American effort.
He said he visited the American
troops i'm France and found that
their enthusiasm and eagerness to be
at the enemy was wonderful. Their
equipment, he added, lis not what IL
should be-. He will prepare a report
on his observations to present to the
authorities at Washington.

TWO RAILROADS
PETITION FOR CUT
IN TRAIN SERVICE
Milwaukee and 500 File In
struments With State
Rail Commission

Bismarck. N. D., Jan. 4.-Permis-
sion to substitute a four-day mixed
train service for its daily passenger
service on the And1ver- Harlem divi-
sion, running mixed trains Mondays,
Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays,
has been asked of the state railway
commission by the Milwaukee line.
The 500 line has asked permission
to substitute tri-weekly service for
the present daily service on its lines
from F'airmount to Veblem, s. D.,
which terminates in North Dakota
at LeMars.
Other railroads operating branch
lines in the state are expected to
petition the railway commission in
a similar capacity, thereby taking
advantage of the governments plan
to curtail the expense en- the opera
ton Of trains throughout the United
States.
The Andover- Harlem division runs
interstate and similar plea has been
filed with the railway commission
of South Dakota. which body is con-
sidering the matter this week. The
condition with the 500 is identical
with that noted in connection with
the Milwaukee line petition.
it is not likely that either state
commission will approve the change
hearings at points affected.
Cogswell is one of the largest towns
in the state to be affected.
