RED CROSS AID AT HOME.
More Than 100000 Families Re
IIeved of Money Troubles.

The first section OF report by the
War Council OF the American Red Cross
TO the American people as to what use
the first war fund of $l00,000.00e has
been put covers the work of the Red
Cross In caring for the families OF Amer
ica's men In war service.
The Red Cross shows that more than
400 900 families Of American men in SER
vice have been relieved OF money
troubles, legal difficulties. family worries
or of depressing loneliness by the home
service branch OF the organization. This
branch OF Red Cross activity has 81, 900
men and women on its 10000 home ser
vice committees. 1t has reached into
remote communities where there had
never before been organized social effort
This work has been backed by 100000
a month.
The expenditures. the report says. have
been made out of money raised in the
communities, and the direction OF the
work In each town has been left to local
committees. These committees have
aided more than /, 900, 900 since the war
started. A total of $l.500,000 was con-
tributed for the welfare CT the communi-
ties In the first six months Of 1918, and
the aggregate for the second half OF the
year will probably exceed $4,000, 900
BY January !. 1919, the Red Cross will
have spent in home service work a total
of $4,000, 900 and will then be carrying
a burden, probably. of nearly $1,000, 900
a month.

TAX EQUALS S76.z6
FOR EVERY PERSON
Internal Revenue Bureau Pre-.
pdres to Collect B Billions.

The Bureau of Internal Revenue at
Washington announces 1t Is confronted
with the task Of collecting within a few
months the sum OF $4,000. 900. 900. the
amount which the new revenue bill now
being framed is expected to yield.
In order that the people may COM
prehend the sum they will be called
upon to contribute this year by direct
taxation the bureau has prepared figures
showing that IL the amount were divided
according to population 1t would mean
n per capita tax of s7676, or more than
s336 family.
The money in circulation August 1
population OF LOG, 012 900 was $52.44 per
capita.
The tax. the bureau explains. is
greater than the total value 05,e0o, 900
0o0) Of all crops and the total value OF
all live stock Slightly less than $4,000
00000o) on American farms on January
I. 1910.
The tax. the bureau further says.
amounts practically to one-third of the
total value Of manufactured products as
reported to the Census Bureau in 1914
-s24.246.435.0o0.
The value added to raw materials by
manufacture, which represents the
wealth produced by manufacturing. in
1914 was $9.s7s,346.00O. or but 23.4 per
cent. more than the proposed tax levy.
These figures" the bureau says. "are
presented not with the view of prepar-
ing the American people for heavy sac
rifices. but to bring home to them a
sense of their responsibility in the way
Of necessary economies. The new rev.
enue bill is being drawn in a manner to
impose the least burden possible. Every
man will be assessed according to his
income. Each will be called upon to
do his share"

PREDICTS LABOR'S
CONTROL OF WORLD
DR.. Charles Stelzle Forecasts
Industrial Revolution
After This War.
CHURCH MUST BE GUIDE
Should Be Free From All Sec.
tarianism and From Mar
row Policies.

An industrial revolution after the war
was predicted yesterday by the Rev. DR..
Charles Steizle IN mis- sermon In the
West End Presbyterian Church. DR..
Stelzle said democracy had already won
the struggle for supremacy In rel,g on
and In the state and that its fight for a
similar commanding position in indus
try was new phase which presented
itself In the present world struggle.
when the war ends there will be an
Industrial revolution that will affect the
humblest worker in this and every other
town." declared the preacher. THE
working man is going TO rule this coun-
try and every other country in the
world. The men who work are going
TO control Russia and II is going to be
the same in England. France and Italy.
President Wilson knows and Charles
Schwab knows and those who are run
ming the war In all countries know that
the working people OF the world will
control the world.
when democracy wins this war, as 1t
will--for unquestionably the voice Of the
people Is the voice Of God and He Is
with them--the church must vindicate
Its right to be the guide in solving moral
and ethical problems 1t must. thunder
out the great principles of righteousness
and justice. 1t must not be backward
but should declare with authority on all
moral and ethical questions.
The church must not be content with
doing relief work. II only comfort and
clothes are given to the soldiers II fails
In its purpose 1t must not be held by
reactionary ecclesiasticism. 1t must be
free from all sectarianism, free from
narrow policies. free from artificiality.
The old conception Of what religion
means Is being shattered. The people
who have gone into war work are find
ing that religion is not entirely in the
church. They have found 1t Is every
where. That is one of the manifesto
tons of this struggle. The soldiers have
faced death and they have been think
ing. They have been looking at life
more seriously and religion means more
to them than It did
THE religion that comes out OF this
war must be of the kind to fire hearts
to heroic action. to stir the red blood.
Those who have passed through this war
will never be content to crawl back into
the shell of Journalism and ceremonial
observance which the church has repre-
sented to them. IL the church OF Jesus
Christ Is to have place In the SUMS
to function properly-it must look at
things with a clear vision and an open
heart"
One of the real problems of the
church In the United States has to do
with the high grade artisan with good
pay and short hours-not the bread line.

GIBBONS APPEALS TO MINERS
Cardinal Urges CIerRymen L
Preach Patriotism.

Pleasure over the Presidents procla- =
nation with regard to the coal situation
prompted Cardinal Gibbons to write
Fuel Administrator Garfield expressing
the hope that miners will now see how
much depends upon their labor" and
therefore put every ounce OF energy
and manhood into the work which they
are asked to do
In his letter the Cardinal suggests that
clergymen, especially In the mining dis
tricts, can be of great assistance at this
time by frequently reminding their con-
cations that those who stay behind to
work must remember that they are
working for their country and are hold
ing up the hands OF their countrymen
fighting across the seas"
Like great many other Americans"
the letter continued, ~ have been very
much alarmed at the outlook for next
winter. II is to be hoped that those
whose business II is to get coal out of
the earth will see how much depends
upon their labor and what a patriotic
work they perform In providing that
which Is really at the present time the
sinews OF war
1.-THE very fact that we have conscrip-
ton puts responsibility on every man
in the country, either to fight or to work.
as the Government may think most nee
essary for the public good. The very
fact that certain kinds Of workers are
put in deferred classification Is to my
mind an indication to them that their
real duty isNto do that particular kind
of work, because through the work
which they can perform the country will
be more greatly helped and the war
more easily won.
But just as II Is the duty OF those
who are called to fight 10 fight bra veIy
and to allow their patriotism to be the
informing principle of their courage, so
1t is necessary that those who work
should work in the same strenuous and
patriotic manner"
The Cardinal expresses the opinion
that essential workers can he stimula ted
not only by clergymen but also by their
own families and neighbors. and con-
cludes
~ hope for the very best effects from
the Presidents proclamation"
