HEARTY ENDORSEMENTS
OF FOUR LEADING JEWS
Give Full Approval to United War
Work Campaign for Funds to
Help American Soldiers.

Following are endorsements of four
leading Jews, prominent in public af-
fairs of the United States, who give
their full approval to the United War
Work Campaign for funds with which
to bring the touch of home to Ameri-
can soldiers:
Louis MARSHALL: "The union of all
these organizations in making joint
appeal to the American people for the
funds necessary to, carry on their es-
sential activities, is the most inspiring
demonstration of a homogeneous peo-
pie that the world has ever witnessed.
1t will not only result in securing the
means for effective work, but every
dollar contributed will help every man
who is fighting under our flag for the
entire American people"
DR.. K. Kohler, president of Hebrew
Union College, Cincinnati, Ohio: "It
seems as if out of this cruel warfare
new spirit of humanity is evolving.
Here is our great opportunity to mani
fest the broad humanitarian spirit of
Judaism; let us not miss it! Let the
OONlSA w CIldl DOdtu 1cdu Ill LulS
great campaign!"
Henry Morgenthau: American boys
of every race and religious belief are
fighting shoulder to shoulder in trench
and field, and war workers represent
ing every faith are working together
behind the lines to give the boys home
comfort and good cheer and spiritual
guidance. Support of the United War
Work Campaign is support for our
own"
Abram l. Elkus: Military experts
/ have talked with attribute the in
domitable spirit of our troops largely
to the efforts of the seven great or
CARNATIONS which cooperate for the
morale and happiness of the fighters.
They are as important as the big.guns
and airplanes. Every dollar given to
the United War Work Campaign is a
dollar invested in morale. Let us all
stand behind the war workers behind
the men behind the guns!"

FRANCE IS FOR THE LEAGUE

In some manner the impression has
become widely fixed that France, and
especially it's premier, Clemenceau,
are opposed to the. League to En-
force Peace.
Recently committee from the ra-
dical party had an audience with M.
Clemenceau and one of it's members
reproached him for having spoken
slightingly of the League for Peace
proposal For reply, the premier
showed the visitors a document on his
desk.
"Here," he said, "are the resolu-
lions passed at the latest Allied con-
ference at Versailles. Look at the last
lines. After the phrase to put an end
to violence, you will notice that there
are few words in my own hand
writing which were added at my per-
sonal request. Those words are: A-ld
to introduce the regime of organized
law for the world.
"The regime Of organized law for
the whole world is the League of Ma
TONS"
Only the tories of the world, more
concerned in keeping militarism as
plaything and as weapon for Soc
ial suppression, will be opposed to
the League to Enforce Peace.

disposition to lose faith il it, be-
cause of it's undoubted weakness and
inconvenience in a struggle with
states automatically governed; there
is even sort of secret reaction to
autocracy. On those lines there is no
way out Of a future of bitter rival
ries, chicanery, and wars, and the
probable total failure of our civil
zatioa. The only cure, which 1 can
see, lies in democratizing the whole
world and removing the present weak
nesses and shams of democracy by
education of the individual consciece
in every country. Goodbye to that
chance, if Americans and Britons fall
foul of each other, refuse to pool
their thoughts and hopes, and to keep
the general welfare of mankind in
view. They have got to stand to-
gether, not in aggressive and jealous
policies, but in defense and champ
ionship of the self-helpful, self-gov-

Patriotic Task Before American
People, Says Mortimer schiff.

Mortimer L. Schiff, Chairman FL
nance Committee, Jewish Welfare
Board, Member Executive Committee,
United War Work Campaign, says:
"The end of hostilities in Europe will
not mean the sudden cessation of war
welfare work Our soldiers and sail
ors are from three to six thousand
miles away from their own people,
and it will take more than IL months
to get them back home again. This
long period, when the grim duties OF
warfare are suspended and restraints
are generally relaxed, will present
greatest need for our work. There Is
no patriotic task before the American
people just now more important than
that of intellectually putting the
United War Work Campaign over the
top"

United War Work Organizations
Will Have Much to Do After
War Is Ended.
GREATEST VALUE THEN
American Soldiers VIII Then Need
Most the Entertainment and Diver
sion Supplied by These Bodies
More Must Be Given,

When he gets through fighting, let's
show him what we think of what he
has done! Don't let anyone tell you
that the work of these seven organiza-
tons will be over when the war is
over. That's when their greatest
value will come.
Today every energy of your fighter
is bent on victory. And when it comes,
when the strain of training and fight
ing is over-then will come his reac-
ton. That's when he will need most
the entertainment and diversion sup
Piled by these organizations. That's
when he will want movies and con-
certs and ball-games and track meets
to keep up his spirits in the inevitable
delay before he comes home.
Don't forget that it will take many
months to bring back our army from
France.
Plans for the work of these organi-
cations during the period of demobili-
cation were mapped out long before
the prospect of peace was even as
near as 1t is today.
There will be regular university
In khaki" in France, for one thing.
Our fighters will be able to make
profitable use of their leisure-to fit
themselves for bigger things when
they get back into civil life, for better
jobs. They have learned to learn in
the army and navy. Text books, lee
lures and class-rooms must be pro-
vided to help them prepare for ad-
vancement after they return. The
country's greatest educators are in
uniform now, ready for this work.
And besides, don't forget that we air
are going to owe the integrity of our
country to your fighter and the boys
like him. We sent them away with a
cheer. We are going to welcome them
home with roar! And we are going
to look after them just as carefully
all the way back as we looked after
them all the way over
Whenever peace comes, the hardest
job OF these seven organizations will
come with it. The nearer it comes.
the more you must give.

1000 "Y" MEN NEEDED
AT ONCE IN FRANCE
Secretaries Will Be Required More
Than Ever When Fighting
Ceases.

With our brothers and sons over
seas simply begging for more Y. NJ
c. A. secretaries that the service of
the "Y'' may be extended into out-of-
the-way places, and with the earnest
pleading Of the Czecho-Slovaks and
Russians for more "Y" men and still
more, the need of new recruits in "Y"
ranks has become imperative.
-Four thousand more men are need.
ed today in France alone declared
Morton M. Newcomb, head of the re-
cruiting service of the Army Y. NJ.
C. A. at Minneapolis.
when fighting ceases, the Ameri-
can forces will need " secretaries
as never before to prevent the undoing
of the good work that has helped pro-
duce the splendid morale of our army.
and to aid in the reconstruction work
that must go on indefinitely.
1.-THE Czecho-Slovaks look upon the
'Y' secretary as though he were their
leader. They model their ways after
him. Comb their hair as he combs
his. Adopt his mannerisms. In short,
he is their ideal and his influence es-
tabiishes law and order in the COM
munity where he is located. He has
the consideration, friendship and con-
f1dence of all factions. For this rea-
son, it is thought that the American
Y. M. C. A. secretaries will undoubted-
ly have great deal to do with lay
ing the foundations Of the future agri-
cultural, commercial and economic
structure of the country.
"a terrific responsibility rests upon
the American people at this trying
time that they may not be found want
ing in response to the simple trust
which is placed in them by these over
seas neighbors whose sanity and poise
we must help preserve"

A READING ARMY IN FRANCE
Made Possible BY Work Of American
Library Association.

81 found your books everywhere,
from the seaport bases to the front
line trenches" so Raymond B. Eos
dick, Chairman of the Commission on
Training Camp Activities, reported to
the authorities of the American Ii
brary Association on his recent return
from France. 81 found them in dug
outs thirty or forty feet below ground,
in cow-barns where shrapnel had
blown parts of the roof away, as well
as in substantial huts and tents far
back from the firing line. l found
them also in hospitals and dressing
stations; in scattered villages in the
training area where our men are bill
leted, and even in remote parts of
France where our forestry units are
carrying on their lonely but essential
work
"And they were all well worn books
that / saw, showing signs Of constant
usage. Indeed, the books are in con-
tinual demand, and / am sure that 1t
will be reading army that we shall
welcome home from France when the
war is done"
The continued service of this organ
ization is one of the purposes Of the
United War Work Campaign.

The whole world is short of food,
fuel, iron, copper, leather, wooden
goods, cotton, and some of the most
useful chemicals.
Even in the United States, three
thousand miles from wars ravages
and with no diminution of productive
labor power up to last autumn, we are
living from hand to mouth as to most
Of the necessities mentioned above.
A temporary check upon distribution
brings famine in sight.

United States, that many producers of
all sorts. Counting the men under

guns and munitions, not less than
three times that number-the best la
Dor in the world-have been absolute

concerned, for more than three years.
