Editorial Comment
Sacrifice and the President.

If it We're not so expensive there is
something admirable in President Will
sons support of the men he has APP
pointed even where. as in the case of
Fuel Administrator Garfield, the APP
pointment was one of an untried man
to q newly created post.
Mr. Garfield has no ones experience
to guide him. but he did have the adj
vantage Of the best advice from those
who understood railroading and the
coal situation. But Mr.. Garfield would
trust nobody; it might almost be said
not even himself When n simple zone
system enormously simplifying coal de-
livery by directing it to the nearest
point of consumption was submitted to
him, he was afraid there might be
profit in it for the coal operators and
rejected the plan obviously sound as it
Was). as he thought because he did not
trust the operators, but really because
he did not trust Harry A. Garfield
1t would almost seem that by that
time he had realized the task was be-
have started to form a sort of vicious
EQUATION. HIS was tlldI tOttt supply
plus transportation should equal con-
sumption. If through mismanagement
of the mines or the railroads. or both,
if through bungling government inter
ference whereby the terminals We're
choked with government freight al
| lowed a needless priority, then the nee
essarily reduced coal supply plus con-
gested transportation must in Mr.. Gar
fields equation be balanced by a COR
responding reduction in consumption.
Neither Mr.. Wilson nor any of those
who are supporting him, and he has no
more loyal or more efficient supporters
than the readers Of this paper can say
that there has been the slightest hesi-
tation in making sacrifices. Mr.. Will
son has, moreover, been given a free
hand such as no other President ever
, had: and when the bare word of Harry
A. Garfield a demonstrated failure in
a not impossible task, is accepted
against that Of our combined industries

duction at a time when every effort to

What the chapIains Are Saying.

Rev. Charles S. Macfarland, General
Secretary Of the Federal Council of
the Churches of Christ in America, has
been interviewing the Army and Navy
Chaplains, both the veterans and those
newly assigned, and reports them as
enthusiastic regarding their work.
While allowing for all the delinquencies
Incidental to army life and not mini
MIXING the difficulties with which they
are constantly dealing, they express
pride in their men and report them as
wonderfully appreciative and res
ponsive to deeply spiritual appeal.
DR.. Macfarland has not found
single chaplain who does not rejoice in
tunity of any preacher for great par
ish, who wants hard work with ample
spiritual reward" Another said: Il
would not swap my position for any
in the camp, whether military or re-
ligious."
They all appear rudy and in good
health. In an interview with General
Gorgas in Washington, this veteran
soldier expressed the highest praise Of
the chaplains and their work.
The work of the Federal Council for
the past FIVE years in setting up its
general committee on army and navy
chaplains, is felt to be one of the most
clearly proyidential tasks undertaken
by the Council and with the passage OF
the new bill by Congress providing for
three times the present number of
chaplains, the Washington Office OF the
Council will have its hands full OF
work.
