CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
GIVES WAR AID

Christian Science camp welfare
work is now being carried on in
forty-hve army and navy camps in the
United States under direction of the
Christian Science war relief and camp
welfare committee of the First Church
OF Christ, Scientist, in Boston. There
are at present about seventy men and
fifteen women engaged in this work.
the women serving mainly as welfare
room attendants.
Conducted at first independently, the
camp welfare work has been merged
with the war relief work which the
Christian Scientists were doing in
foreign countries before the United
states entered the war. For both
these purposes about one million dol
lars have been raised.
The aim OF the Christian Science
camp workers is to be as helpful as
possible to all the men in the camps,
whether or not they are Christian
Scientists, and particularly to give
assistance which may not be available
at the time or place through any of
the other camp welfare agencies. A
feature OF this phase of the work is
an arrangement for keeping soldiers
and sailors in close touch fifth their
relatives.
The net result, for which the Chris
tian Science com mnittees and camp
workers have received many COM
mendations. has been a noticeable
raising of the morale OF many men
in the service and the development
of a better feeling at home regard
ing the participation of their boys in
the service.
The camp workers say there is an
Increased willingness among the COM
manding officers and surgeons to al
low Christian Science treatment for
those men who ask for It, and many
Christian Scence healings have been
recorded. Recently, two requests
for Christian Science services in hos
pital wards were received by camp
workers from madical nurses who
had observed the beneficial effects
OF Christian Science treatment.
In or near numerous camps, he
Christian Science committees have
erected substantial buildings, with
quiet places for reading and writing.
and other buildings are in course of
construction. A light touring car has
been added to the equipment OF the
Christian Science camp workers at
each camp to be used wherein and

WASHINGTON, Jan 23.-Secretary
McAdoo has placed an embargo on
all freight except food, fuel and
on the Pennsylvania lines
east OF Pittsburgh, the Baltimore &
Ohio east OF the Ohio river, and

able those lines to continue to spe-
cialize upon coal for the double pur-
pose of supplying acute conditions

temporary embargo.
