DR.. Day i'm Pulpit
Becomes Prophet
About Prohteers
Commissioner of Markets
Addresses West End Pres
byterian Congregation

DR.. Jonathan c. Day, Commissioner
of Markets, occupied the pulpit yester-
day morning at the West End Presby-
terian Church, Amsterdam Avenue and
105th Street, where he talked on
Prophets and Profteers."
Through a misunderstanding the sub
ject of DR.. Days discourse had been
billed in advance as profits and
Proflteers," but profits, he explained,
were the last thing he had in mind.
What concerned him was the romantic
figure of the Prophet, silhouetted, soli-
tary and aloof, against the sweep of
the ages.
"The prophets of old" he said, "are
the men who advanced humanity, and
they were not professionals. Profiteers
ere, Profiteers live for what good the
world can do them; prophets for the
good they can do the world"
Then Dr. Day told of an incident he
had witnessed during the early days
A complacent looking man, he said,
was talking to friend of the strug-
gle in Europe. "If this war continues
couple of years longer" DR.. Day
said the man remarked CPL retire
from business; I'll have enough to last
me the rest cf my life"
A lite woman in black, the speaker
said, ro.;e from her place at that and
deliberately slapped the complacent
cne in the face,
"You hep!" she cried. "T have had
two boys shot in the trenches. Three
more belong to the French army, yet
you sit hece and gloat and talk of
quitting business. 1t is such men as
you thai cause humanity to blush for
the race"
"That woman" continued DR.. Day
"spoke as prophet; the man as q
profteer." And the speaker went on
to show how difficult has been the
path of the genuine prophet ever since
the days when the shepherd Amos was
denounced by the men of Samaria and

Loyalty Week a Good Time to

Field for making use of the word

clared himself against the hyphen
and for the descriptive phrase "Ameri-

is a good time to start the substitu-

"Let US use the term Americans of
German Origin" he said, "and apply
the name 'German-American' onlv to
those few in number who may now
and then raise their disloyal heads to
be dealt with as they deserve.
$50 far as the term 'German-Ameri-
can is descriptive of q citizens birth or
descent it is unobjectionable. 1t is
then merely an abrcviation of 'Ameri-
can Of German birth or ancestry.' If
it is used, however, to indicate any
political allegiance to Germany, it is
improper. There are some who failed
to mark this distinction and thus thew
failed to live up to their duty or to

During Debs's address Federal oper-

He promised that he would not try to
establish his innocence if arrested on
a similar charge and added:
"The United States, under the rule of

world that would send woman to Jail

Not all Junkers in Germany

audience must fight militarism wher-

$2,000,000,000 Thrift Drive
Will Be Launched Here To-day
Campaign to Be Carried Out on Two Distinct Lines
Every Resident in Greater City to Be Asked
to Aid u S. With Pennies

The spendthrift habits of New York
opens for the city's share of the ST.
600, ,o00 which the nation will be
asked to save and invest in thrift
stamps this year. During the campaign,
which will end on June 2S, the entire
population will be asked to enroll it,
self in a league of honorable parsi-
mony.
A great, revolutionary change in the
take place at once. The days of lavish
spending have passed, and the old
fashioned waStrel is doomed to sud
den loss of caste The popular, re-
spected citizen in the future will be
the man who carefully counts his pen
nies, and buys only the bare necessi-
ties of existence. People who skimp a
little on their eating, who look trifle
shabby when they 90 about the streets,
who reduce ali social expenses to a
point of open stinginess - these will
form the new aristocracy Of patriotism.
The drive to induce everybody to
hang on to their quarters and invest
heavily in the governments "jltney
bonds" will be conducted by the com
bned forces of the third Liberty Loan
and war savings stamp committees.
Flying sguadrons of stamp statesmen
will penetrate the uttermost corners OF
the metropolis, the thousands of booths
and stations will be opened and the
rest of the former loan machinery set
into motion. For two weeks New York
will witness the activities of the great
est salesmanship and educational or
ganization the city has ever known.
Two Lines of Campaign
The work of the campaign will be
carried out along two distinct lines.
All business and professional trade,
rcligious, racial and social groups will
be resolved into huge savings society.
Members become active workers as we'll
as private investors, and wear a special
button as a mark of distinction.
Those of the city's millions who fail
to affiliate them selves with the united
societies will be asked for individual
savings pledges. A house toulouse
and Republican organizations will
reach greater part Of the population
and booth workers in department
stores, theatres and other public places
will see that all the rest have a chance
to sign the thrift pledges.
Friday, June 2S, has been designated
by the Secretary of the Treasury as
National War Savings Day. The drive
will gain momentum up through this
final day, whom New York is expected
to report a substantial oversubscrip-
tion Of its quota.

Serbian "Victory"
529 Years Ago Is
Celebrated Here

The 529th anniversary of the Battle
of Kossovo, at which the Serbs held
back the Turks from Europe at the
cost of rheir own nationality, was cele-
brated yesterday afternoon at the Ca
thedral of ST. John the Divine by a
special service, at which the Very Rev.
Howard C. Robbins, dean of the cathe-
dral, and the Very Rev. J. Krajnovich,
dean Of the Serbian Church, delivered
addresses.
There were other signs of the al
lance between America and the nation
that has lost its land for a second time
in an effort to save civilization.
Just before the service began de-
tachment Of United States troops
marched into the cathedral from the
west entrance, their flag, carried ahead,
cleaning in the half-light of the great
church. Another flag advanced from
the east entrance to meet 1.-THE flag

of the gallant little army.
A minute later the organ pealed out
Coward, Christian Soldiers and the
choir entered, chanting the magnificent
hymn.
Dean Robbins, who took for his text,
"Out of the deeps have l called to

the ancient Hebrew nation and the op-

"Do not these two nations, Israel and

erick w Allen. War Savings Director
! for greater New York, declared the
present drive not only would help win
the war, but would contribute to eco
nomic preparedness after the war.
Pledge From Every One Sought
"Our entire population should be re-
corded as pledged to the duties of war
savings service said Mr.. Allen. "This
service means to refrain constantly
from unnecessary purchasing and to
transfer to the government the use OF
all moneys which the individual can
save. 1t means helping the government
supply food, munitions and ships for
the army and navy, and for the main
tenancc and protection of the people at
home.
"The' training the citizen will re-
ceive in being wisely thrifty will do for
him what military training does for the
soldier. 1t brings the citizen strength
and independence, and greater ability
to serve his government, his family and
himself 1t brings him into a respon-
sibility to his government, and not'only
develops loyalty, but creates 1T by the
consciousness of it.
"Pres dent Wilson in his statement
regarding the savings campaign said:
4 earnestly appeal to every man, wom-
an and child TO pledge themselves to
save constantly and buy as regularly
as possible the securities of the gov
ernment. The man who buys war
savings stamps transfers the purchas
ing power Of his money to the United
States government until after this war.
May there be none unenlisted in the
great volunteer army of production and
saving here at home.'"
Strong Appeals to Loan Workers
Benjamin Strong, governor of the
Federal Reserve Bank and chairman Of
| the Liberty Loan Committee, asked all
former loan workers to help in the new
drive.
after the arduous Liberty Loan
campaign I hesitate to make requests
! for further work" he said, "but if the
State of New York can be we'll or
ganized for the practice of economy
the work of the Liberty Loan commit
tees in the next drive will be facili-
tated. I therefore feel that coopera-
tion of the Liberty Loan organization
in obtaining these pledges for savings,
while entailing some additional work
at present, will materially reduce the
labor of the next campaign"
The war savings stamps committee
has issued call for additional So
licitors, organizers, speakers, office
workers and women to take charge of
booths who can give part or the whole
of their time in the fight to sell stamps
and teach economy Employment will
be given volunteers who present them
selves at the war savings headquarters,
