the following two would you rather
belong-an organization of which the
leaders are all right but the move
ment is all wrong, or one where the
leaders are all wrong, but the move
ment is all right? We prefer the lat

WHEAT IN TURKEY $50 A
 BUSHEL

A cablegram recently received in Washington by Dr. William w. Peet treasurer of the American Board Com mission of Foreign Missions in Con stantinople, from the American and Syrian Relief Commission in Turkey transmitted through Switzerland states that wheat now sells in Turkey for $50 bushel. In prewar days 50 to 60 cents was the normal price. Speaking of this advanced price Dr. Peet said "This indicates to me tha, the supply is now coming from North Bulgaria"
 For some time those of small means fin Turkey have been using the seeds of certain weeds, barley, and sesame ground together as substitute for flour. "The seeds furnished by the Pasha to be planted for crops were used for food" said Dr. Peet, "as assurance of harvesting the crops was so uncertain that the peple would not waste their energy in planting some. thing that they might not reap"

Translators of Spanish are in de- mand. Women who translate Spanish accurately and quickly should com municate with the postal censorship board, Post Office Department, Wash ington, D. C., for assignment to the postal censorship in New York and other port cities.
 "Our need in the past has been for translators of the numerous Euro pean languages" states the New York executive postal censorship commit tee. "But we have now obtained a sufficient number of persons to carry on the work, with the exception of Spanish translations. In fact, the work in this language is so volum' 'u- ous that all vacancies caused by resig- nations of French and German transla- tors and English readers are being filled by applicants who can offer Spanish in addition to these languages.

WORK OF THE FRENCH
 PROTESTANT COMMITTEE

How the Protestant churches in France work with the Army and Navy through a committee embracing all de- nominations is told in a recent lett er.
 Our committee is working on very similar lines with your own," writes Andre Monod, corresponding secre tary of the French Protestant commit tee, from Paris to Henry A. Atkinson, executive secretary of the national committee on the churches and moral aims of the war. Democracy and in- ternational justice" says Mir. Monod "'are the French committees basic principles" Mir. Monod's letter, in part follows:
 Our own committee was formed as early as June 1915. It's first aim was | to vindicate what was to us the right and the truth before the Protestants of neutral countries. The appoint ment of this committee, which united the most prominent representatives from all our churches with men be- longing to or having done fine service in the army, the navy, or in the busi ness circles, had been fully approved by the 'Conseil de la Federation des Eglise Protestantes our Federal Coun Gil of Churches.
 "The Protestant committee has been enc of the most active of our organi- cations during the war. It has extended it's scope of action in great number of different countries by means of literature and the sending of delegates to Holland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Switzerland, the United States, and Canada.
 Early in 1917, the same committee found way of taking it's part in a wide and permanent campaign, tend ing to maintain the spirit of the Ma tion on lofty level and to give moral support to influential organizations which could help in said campaign. We thus brought to national cam paign the help and the work of our churches which were especially pre- pared to understand the moral aims of the war.
 We have been the means by our close relations with the United States and by the mission of our delegates to make our people more fully realize fthe moral significance and the value of American friendship and American support in the war;
