CHURCH FEDERATION COMING
Many More Communities Uniting for
Sake OF Efficiency.

The determination of the churches
IN large cities to deal effectively and
unitedly with community problems
which have been made more serious
by the war has resulted in rapid ad-
vance in the church federation move
ment. inactive federations have
been formed and executive secre-
taries are being called for faster
than they can be secured" said the
Rev. Roy b. Guild of the commis-
sion on inter- church federation Of
the federal council.
After a steady campaign of edu-
cation the churches of Norfolk, Va.
have been mobilized. A financial
campaign has Just ended in which
pledges for two years, amounting to
more than $4,000, have been secured,
The presence OF fifty thousand
sailors, soldiers, aviators and navy
yard employees in that district re-
qulred such a campaign.
Youngstown, Ohio; Akron, Ohio;
st. Paul, MINI; Johnstown. Pa,
and Omaha, Neb., have all been
active in the completion of plans for

MANY RICH YOUNG WOMEN
ARE FINANCIAL SLACkERS
Also Delinquent in Giving Pcrsonai
Service to War Work OF
EnIherlnnd.

In communication addressed TO
the Women of the Upper Glasses IN
the Kolnische Zeitung, the writer
brings out the Importance OF com
plete mobilization of the eAerg1es OF
all women" during war
Let no one interpose the objec-
ton that n person who In this, the
fourth year of the war, has yet to
gain comprehension OF tho ex-
tremities in which our people are
laboring, who still places personal
well being above concern for the
common good, is irretrievably lost
| for a great object" says the writer.
| Certainly. every German woman. the
wealthy woman most OF all, ought at
the start to have comprehended her
, duty toward her country in this fear
full war of starvation, as well as the
divers aspects Of the policy of'hold-
ing out and conducted herself ac-
cordingly However. 1t is precisely
/ in a mode Of life which long-stand-
ing culture and inherited wealth
have rendered luxurious that force
of habit plays so important a role.
and herein may well lie an explana-
ton for the disastrous retention OF
her comforts by the woman of this
type. with this attitude there must
be merciless interference.
Because the educated middle
class is scarcely able longer to fur
nish the necessary reserve con-
tingents, we must have recourse to
the women of the upper strata Of
society. Their strength is to a
greater or less degree unexhausted'
they are relieved of domestic re-
sponsibilities by many servants.
thanks to their large financial re-
sources they are, even without re-
sorting to subterfuges, immune from
undernourishment. For the same
reason they are in a position to re-
store their strength by travel, and
because of their larger wardrobes
to risk, rather than the woman OF
tho lower classes, using up theL
clothes in war work.
Thus all considerations favor the
enlistment of the service of those
women who have hitherto lived at
their ease with the exception, or
course. of those who ARE bound by
the duties of motherhood)."

ADVERTISING GREAT STUDY
Definite Plan Necessary to
Get Results, Graham
Declares

That newspaper advertising has
been responsible, more than any
thing else, for putting the Amer
lean people In state II mind where
they can act with one accord In win
ming the war, was the interesting
statement Of N. r. Graham in an
Illuminating, though brief, address
before the Advertising club OF Tulsa
last Tuesday noon.
Through his years of experience
as an advertising man on daily news
papers and his more recent train
Ing as manager OF various war fund
campaigns, Mr.. Graham Is eminently
qualified to speak upon this subject.
He was the fifth in a series OF Ad-
verifying club speakers, each deal
ing With n different phase OF adver-
tisitg. Graham's topic was "The.
Plsa." and his departure from the
kCdst5mary cut and dried discussion
of the subject made his short talk
ono OF ehe most appreciated items
on the Advertising club program in
many months.
1.-THE one thing that the American
people had 10 learn, and that gov
arnment advertising has taught
them" he declared, ''is that this Is
not a war of hate or selfishness,
from our standpoint but n final
struggle to vindicate the principle
that right makes might and that
democracy Is greater than auto
cracy."
His address was as follows:
1.-The subject for this week Is The
Plan

paign is equal In Importance to the

war and for Americas part was laid.
THAT It was wen laid is attested
by the willing acceptance Of the
draft, the success OF Liberty bond
sales and of Red Cross and various
other campaigns, all OF which are
but the result OF this plan. based
on the holy ground OF world equality
and planned on the broad principles
of justice and equal rights to all
american soldiers may hate Huns
fbut they are not fighting because
they hate. They understand, thanks
to the plans and accomplishments or
national advertising. that they are

tianity might have viltalized eN-

ttona
speaking of war advertising 1t
might be well to consider Tor a
tmoment the difference in the adver-
Using plans OF the German empire
and that OF the allies.
"Germany's campaign is for the
perpetuation OF the divine right on
kings and to accomplish this they
have planned an advertising cam
paign in keeping. At homo the prln-
cipal plan of the German Is based
on the tinsel of rank and the GIT
ter OF so-called medals OF recogni-
tion. To these medals is always at
tached the thought that they are
sbecial endowmeuts from the kaiser
as the representative OF God. This has
been preached in the church ana
taught in the schools OF Germany
for the past two generations and II
result Is the war of today.
Away from home where the Ger
man advertising campaign meets the
competition of democracy II has con-
centrated IN spreading indecision
and doubt. with throwing monkey
space of but a few months, those IN
theory Tat all men are created
equal
"To offset this, and in the short
space of but a few months those in
charge Of the American advertising
have had to change the whole
thought OF the nation from self to
sacrifice, from personal attainment
| to national glorification
America has even carried the ad-
vertising campaign for war into the
enemy country whore we are,
through the medium OF airship de-
livery, spreading the leaven Of demo-
cratic thought among the slaves OF
autocracy This campaign Is another
reason why the government Is
preaching Americas fight as fight
for principle and not of mere hate,
TN conclusion I would like to
tell you how I came TO get the view
point Of the governments Idea so
strongly. In the second Liberty loan
campaign. one day when Senator
tOwen was visiting Tulsa, and 2the
campaign was moving very. very
slow, we called a meeting OF bankers
Of Tulsa. About half the banks Sent

but men who were not empowered
to talk money. This clapped the
climax with me. and / promptly blew

floor and administered me a yer!

that advertising IS not a serious,
constructive business in which the
best thought and action of those con-
cerned is concentrated.
"Plan to me takes in tho whole
scope of the twelve inches 1t must
include service, II must consider To-
cation, 1t is essen ial that the time
or season be given a place In the
preliminary plan. The price and its
details are but portion of the plan
itself, and so on through the whole
foot.
TN considering the plan Of ad-
vertising it might not be amiss to
consider the Plan and tho happy
results, In the greatest OF all adver-
tising Selling the war
to America.
Let us be quite frank and admit
that a good many Americans, some
OF my best friends and some OF the
truest patriots of today. were not
strong for war. Among these was
President Wilson, who, In spite OF
the Lusitania tragedy, hesitated TO
plunge the nation into war.
There were many loyal Amer1-
cans who could not see the dire
necessity OF war-the vision OF our
national peril, who could see but the
blood and suffering. the loss OF loved
ones. Some even considered the sell
fish interest of the dollar.
America. we must admit was
confronted with tho necessity of an
advertising campaign, based on the
widest and strongest plan possible
A. ~
Though individuals give way TO
suspicion and hate, the government
of the United States could not lay
the principles of holy war. for
such it is, on the foundation OF race
hate,
America, as government had
to realize that after the war there
will be in this world many millions
OF people of German and Austrian
blood who will enter into the life OF
the world once more, 1t had to
realize that in every enemy country
there are thousands, even millions
of suppressed people whose ideas OF
government are not In accord with
our enemies and their oppressors
These people are those we Will deaI
with in the reconstruction Of the
German and Austrian people, in ouI
effort to make future generations
safe.
IAN this had to be accounted In
the plan OF selling the war to Amer
lea.
Among the first departments or
ganized was the department Of pub
lie information and to this depart
ment in its various branches, was
assigned the task of advertising the
war and It's justness.
TITS ground plan is not hate
Rather 1t has urged and instructed
it's workers OF the Four Mirute Mel
and other branches that america
position in this war is far too lott!
for mere hate. That we are fight
ing for the old American principles
OF equal rights, noteonly for Amer
leans, but for the very people viii
whom we are fighting.
