New Declaration of Independence

The Congress of Representatives
of the Subject Races OF Germany
and Austria has just closed its ses-
sion in Independence Hall in Phil
adelphla. These men came from
eighteen nationalities and repre-.
sented over 90, 900, 900 people, in
Guiding Films. Lithuanians, Jugo-
Slavs, Czecho-S lovaks, Rumanians,
IkralnlanS, Italian Irredentists.
etc. They came to memorabilia
the United States and the Allies
regarding the claims for freedom
OF each nation. DR.. Masaryk,
prime minister of the Czecho-
Slovak nation, man of great abil-
lty and high character, presided
over the convention. A few
months ago the prospects for the
liberty these people sought seemed
tar from hopeful. To Moscow
across Poland, to Constarza across
Romania, to Salonica across Serbia,
10 Constantinople across Bulgaria.
it was Berlin's plan to drive its
power, and a shadow of terror and
gloom settled down over these sub
Ject races. But the tide of battle
turned and gave them hope. That
Congress was one of the significant
events of modern history. Its
staging was spectacular. 1t met
in the very room where the Ameri-
can Constitution was drawn up;
around the same table on which
the original Declaration of indie
pendence in 1916 was signed. Pro-
iessor Masaryk, the president of
the Congress, sat in the same chair
Washington occupied when the
Republic was born, and the dele
gates signed the new Declaration
of Independence on the historic
table sancitified and dedicated for
ever to the cause of freedom by
the laying on of hands of the Revo-
lutionary Fathers. After the sig

was rung, and a new era of liberty,
love and happiness to millions of
suffering creatures was ushered in.
The new bell will be carried by the
delegates to several cities, and then
will be placed permanently i'll the
Peace Palace at Brussels. The
first Declaration made 3,ooo,o 900
free; the new one set twenty times
that number at liberty. The first
one had to be followed by long

War. 1t took the nations engaged
in this war a good while to find
what it was for, but God knew all
the time. 1t was to make the
world right and to make it free
The Congress at Philadelphia was
one of the first fruits of this uni
versal liberty and righteousness.
1t was to bring truth, Justice, love,
sacrifice for others, and a peace that
shall never be broken to the end of
time. 1t was to lift the world up
to the ideals and person of the
Christ and put it under his author
lty as the only real Ruler.-The

Shipping Board Plans.

Mr.. H. NJ Hurley. Chairman of the
United States Shipping Board sends
telegraphic statement to the State
Council of Defense of the policy of the
Shipping Board:
Now that the armistice has been
is in sight n statement roughly
outlining the plans of the Shipping
Board is in order
The continued need for building
Not only must We continue to supply
our armies over seas and prepare to
bring them home at the earliest NOM
ent compatible with safety but Europe
must be fed and supplied with the
necessary materials to permit the re-
construction of devastated areas in
order that both our friends and our
enemies may become self-supporting
and the burden of feeding the world
taken from of our shoulders. There
are not enough ships in the world to
carry on this work and to provide
Immediately for ordinary commerce.
For that reason only limited portion
of shipping which can be constructed
by US in 1919 will be available for use
in the ordinary commercial channels.
For two months the Shipping Board
has been making complete resurvey
of its construction program and con-
tracts Believing that the emergency
war pressure which necesstated the
speediest construction possible would
soon end, the investigation has been
with a view to a replanning of the
ships to be constructed from this date
forwards. 1t is planned that from now
on ships will be built with special refer
ence to suitability for special service
and with particular reference to the
economical cost of operation including
the motive power, cargo space, and
speed. 1t is also planned that these
shall be built with reference to pro-
bable trade uses and trade lines so as
to adapt them to particular uses and to
increase the speed of the turn-around
of the ship. this because every unnece-
ssary delay in loading and unloading
must be eliminated"
