Years Work Is Reviewed
by Missionary Society

The Womans Foreign Missionary
Society OF the Carlisle Presbytery,
Mrs. William Jennings, president,
meeting at Paxton Presbyterian
Church, PaXtang, closed it's forty
first annual convention this after
noon after one of the most inter-
esting sessions in its log history The
day was taken up for the most part
with reports from various secre-
taries, Mrs. Eliza beth Shoemaker,
foreign secretary; Mrs. Gilbert
Swope, home secretary; Miss Anna
Miller, Christian Endeavor; Miss
Winifred Wood, Young Peoples So
ciety. An interesting feature was
the address of Miss Lois Fair on a
Years Work For Missions" This
afternoon memorial services were
held for Mrs. Herr.
A notable part of the program
was the talk of the Rev. DR.. w. S.
Wandless, missionary to India, who
told graphic narratives of his long
service in that country as a medical
missionary. So great was the de-
mand for aid that he had as many
as twenty-five operations for eye
cataract in one day. The convention
attracted more than one hundred
edelegateS.

with war activities. If they were
permitted to run along individual
and uncontrolled lines, it easily was
a matter of the very near future
when the various war boards and
departments would have programs
of production which in the aggregate
would have represented more than
the entire country could produce.
The war boards were threatening to
go to an extent that would snuff out
the essentials of life to the civilian
population-to say nothing of put
ting the cost of living entirely out
of the reach of nine-tenths of the
people. :
Out of this impossible situation is
to come a coordination which will
mean that the necessities of the
great civilian population will be
safeguarded, even to the extent of
fixing prices on every commodity
that enters into ones daily life. if
some voluntary agreement cannot be
reached with the manufacturers who
have taken advantage of the war to
increase prices far beyond any legiti-
mate demand of the times.

NINE. BILLIONS
COST TO U.S.FOR
ONE YEAR OF WAR
Allies Received More Than
One-Half of the Total
Amount

Washington, April 5.-Nine billion
dollars is the approximate cost to
the United States of one year of war.
More than one-half has gone in
loans to Allies and will be repaid
eventually; over one-thIrd has been
spent for the Army and military es-
tablishment, one-tenth for the Navy
and one-fifteenth for shipbuilding.
Just one-siXth of this big war cost
has been raised by taxation and 9TH
er ordinary sources of revenue, and
the balance has come from sale of
Liberty Bonds and certificates of in
debtedness.
Enormous as these war expendi-
lures may seem to n country whose
Government in peace times cost be-
tween $700,00O,0O0 and $500. 900, 900.
they are less than Great Britain's
and are only about two-thirds of es-
Inmates made by officials less than
a year ago. Slow progress of the
shipbuil6ing program and the retard-
ing of the outpouring of war sup
plies are regarded by officials as the
chief reasons why expenses did not
equal estimates.
Government expenses now are run

BARUCH WILL
COORDINATE ALL
, WAR EFFORTS
Purchases by All Departments
to Be Dictated by the
New Chief

Washington, April 5.-President
Wilson has intrusted to the war in
dustries board. headed by Bernard
M. Baruch, the coordination of
Americas efforts toward winning the
war.
The powerN conferred upon the
board, and which of necessity must
center largely in the chairman, rep
resents the most revolutionary step
taken by the government since the
United States entered the war.
The vast war program cannot be
carried out without vitality affecting
many of the normal activities of civil
life, and consequently Mr.. Baruch' S
board eventually must come to deal
with the every day affairs of the or
dinary citizen. as well as to super
wise the expenditure of the vast bill
lions of dollars that now make up
the American war budget.
If price-fiXing is to become neces-
sary the Baruch board will make
the scales, and the scheme easily
may go even to the extreme of
standardizing the quality and cost
of such things as wearing apparel
and footwear. 1t is merely ques-
ton of the war lasting a year or two
longer to bring about the most rad
ical changes in the life of a nation
the world has ever known, taking
into consideration the standard of
American living.
Not only will the war industries
board direct all the affairs of
America in the purchase of ma
terials and the manufacture of sup
plies, but Mr.. Baruch in his capacity
as buying representative of the En-
tente governments is vested with an
influence which will reach around
the globe. Already steps have been
taken to pool the worlds supply of
certain commodities and in some in
stances one man has been designated
to supervise the purchasing of an
entire world output.
Enforccs Unity of Command
In brief, the American govern
ment is putting into effect in this
country, and in association with the
Allies is putting into effect through
out that part of the world not con-
trolled by the Central Powers, n
''unity of command" with regard to
the means for carrying on the war,
which can be compared to the recent
appointment of General Foch as di-
rector of all the Allied and Ameri-
can military forces on the western
front.
AS indicated in dispatches last
night, it long has been apparent
here that some step should be taken
to balance the wants, the require
ments and the plans of the various
government departments charged

OVER SCANDAL
IN HIGH PLACES

Baron Won Radeck and his wife,

ter between the two men, in which
Won Radeck tore the epaulettes from
Won Bernstorff's uniform. Thereupon
Won Bernstorff declared that, Won Ra-
deck was not capable of giving sat-
isfaction as a gentleman and he
charged Won Radeck with spying for
England.
This resulted in Won Radeck leav-
ing the army and Won Bernstorff be-
ing punished by a military court.
The Baron now charges that Won
Bernstorff, with fourteen others,
caused his divorce and dismissal form
the army by circulating untruthful
reports.

80 years old. Her first husband was
an American, from whom she was
divorced. after which she married
Baron Won Radeck. She was born in
Stroudsburg, Pa. of English parents.
and was adopted by e. ]. Thomason,
of Burlington. n. ]. After her first
marriage she met Baron Won Radecll
in New York and they were married
in London in 1911. Two years later
she filed suit for a divorce on the
grounds of cruelty and the case drag
Ged on until las. October. Four
years ago the Countess fell heir to

Ouch ? |! ? ! This kind of
rough talk will be heard less here

will follow the simple advice of this
Cincinnati authority, who claims that
a few drops of q drug called free

ing corn stops soreness at once, and
soon the corn dries up and lifts right
out without pain. A delightful sur
prise awaits all who try this.
He says freezone is a sticky sub
stance which dries Immediately and
never inf1ames or even irritates the
surrounding tissues or skin. A quar-
ter of an ounce of freeZone (which
will cost very little at any drug store,
is said to be sufficient to remove

from ones feet. Millions of Amer

The Germans in the center of their new attack on the front between Mont didier and Noyon have gained addi- tional ground against the French, but on both the right and left wings they are being held. In violent successive attacks Monday they captured the vil- lages of Mery, Belloy and St. Maur. and, also pressed forward and gained a footing in the village of Marquelise the last named place representing the deepest point of penetration since the offensive began-betWeen five and six miles.
 The French still are exacting heavy toll in lives from the Germans as they deliver their attacks in waves, and are giving ground only when forced to under superiority of numbers. No where has the enemy been able te pierce the front which has bent back in perfect order whenever the neces- sitv arose.
 The battle is described by core sponderAs as one of the most furious that has been fought since the wal began, with the enemy unusually reck- less in wasting life to gain his ob- jectives.
 The latest official communication from the German war office says ad- dftional ground has been gained by the Germans south west of Noyor against newly brought up French re- Inducements and that the Germans have taken about 5000 prisoners an6 some guns.
 Near Bussiares, northwest of Chat eau Thierfy, the Americans and French again have delivered strong attacks against the Germans and taken mor' ground. They also captured a mum

As the Austrians continue to bring up large forces of men behind their lines in the Italian theatre the artillery activity and raiding operations are increasing daily. Throughout the mountain region from Tonale to the Brenta river and along the lower reaches of the Piave river, the guns of both sides are engaged in violent duels. Numerous surprise attacks have been attempted by the Austrians on various sectors, but all of them were successfully repulsed. Aerial opera tions on a large scale also are in pro- gress and fights in the air are of daily occurrence. Large quantities of explo- sives have been dropped on enemy positions by Italian airmen and mum | Der of enemy aircraft have been shot down.
 In the Macedonian theatre there also has been an increase in the artillery activity, the enemy bombarding the Allied lines on both sides of the Var dar river. On the part of the front held by the Serbians the artillery fire has been unusually severe.
