Divided Church Cannot
Stand, Say Ministers in
New Years Appeal to
Supporters Of Christianity
in America.

New Haven, Jan. 3.-The following
New Year appeal to the churches of
the United States irrespective of de-
nomination to act as a unit in the
appointment of chaplains of the army
and navy was issued here yesterday.
To Our Fellow Believers in all the
Churches: Greeting
The present crisis conrronrs the
church with the possibility of coming
forth from the war either with a di-
ninished or a vaster power. Today
the churches must face realities. A
divided church cannot stand.
Today everywhere the people are
combining their industries to make
the allied nations one mighty power
in the war. Even on the lower plane
of economies the churches are not
uniting to save waste as in many
places they might do. How many tons
of coal and units Of electricity might
be saved if thin congregations in large
edifices should consent this winter to
worship together.
Far more than this: Today the
Young Mems Christian Association

next GERMAN
OBJECTIVE is
BAGDAD CITY
Clear Route From Berlin to
Persia Through Asia
Minor Is Needed.

The change from Turkish to Eng
lish rule in Jerusalem is comparable
only to a change from Hades to Heav-
en!'
This is the opinion of American
Consul Glazebrook who returned to
the United States in October after
four years service in the city which
has just been captured by English
troops. Consul Glazebrook expects to
return as soon as our government can
make arrangements to send him. He
will resume charge of all relief work
for Palestine, which at the time he
left was under his care, and which
can now be greatly extended as sup
plies will be sent from Egypt
In an interview given recently at
the office of the American Committee
for Armenian and Syrian Relief, with
W hich Committee Consul Glazebrook
is cooperating, he said:
The fall of Jerusalem has a two
fold value. From the practical stand
point it is of Importance because it
permits through rail. communication
with, Port Said and opens the way for
whose currency is deprecated to an
appa1lig degree but whose graneries
are rich. The country will afford new
supplies to the army. But almost as
important will be the effect of the
taking of the Holy City on the super
stftious Arabs. The people have long
believed that when Christian rulers
were again in power at Jerusalem it
presaged the final disintegration of
the Turkish Empire. In a country
such as Turkey the effect of such a
belief will be powerful, almost beyond
comprehension of Westerners.
-"And now that they have lost Yer
usalem, I think the great strategic
point the Germans are aiming for is
Bagdad and clear route from Berlin
| through Asia Minor to Persia. Asia
Minor is splendid country for colon
iSation- When passed through Alep-
Pc in June the Germans were already
massing troops there in great mum
bers while I have since heard that
these have been greatly augmented.
My prophecy, if any opinion is of
value in this war, is that the next
months will see German advance on
Mesul which if successful will be but
the stepping stone to Bagdad. But
the English are stronger today than
ever before in the Near East and
should be able to hold the enemy"
When asked about the administra-
] ton and scope of relief needed
throughout Palestine and Asia Minor,
| Consul Glazebrook said that one of
the chief reasons why he was so anx-
lous to get back as soon as possible
to his post was that now he knew the
way was open for relief to come
through and there should be someone
on the spot to administer it Relief
has been given,- under his auspices,
to Jew and Gentle, Christian and
Moslem alike and will continue to be
I so given. '"An Arab can be just as
hungry and suffer just as much as
anyone else" he added.
The American Committee for Ar
menian and Syrian Relief has just
cabled $4,000 to it's agents at Cairo
for relief in Palestine. More funds
will be sent as rapidly as contribu-
tons warrant, and when Consul
Glazebrook is once more in Jerusalem
he will personally take charge of all
funds sent by the Committee.

MUST MINE AT LEAST ONE
BILLION TONS OF COAL in
The next CALENDAR YEAR
Mines Are Ready for Production But Means Of Moving
Immense Output Must Be Provided Miners Are
Ready to Do Share in Winning the War

,normous figure may startle you, but
he coal men do not hesitate to say
that the mines can produce it. While
some of the men have been taken
from out of the miners ranks to go
into the army, there are enough left
if they have sufficient patriotism and
loyalty to increase the hours of labNr
per day during the war to produce
this enormous tonnage during the
coming year.
The several interests as above stand
as an industrial army, each unit of
which is division in that army They
are interdependent and the failure of
any one of these divisions means fail
ure of all.
The operators and the miners to-
gether can produce this quantity of
coal, the steel plants of the country
can meet the requirements of the gov
eminent and the people and, as it
appears now, there is only one weak
link insthe chain-the railways of the
nation.
They are not weak in management
and have not been. By reason of de-
finite fixed legislation they are limited
TO earnings Which, are uOI LII pTOpOI-
ton with that of the other industries
of the country. This should be chang
ed at once. The railways should be
gwen increased rates to enable them
to meet their obligations, so as to do
their full duty during this emergency.
They cannot be asked to sell their own
securities, which at the present time
would sell at a discount which would
| inpoverish them. They need help.
The way should be found immediate
ly to give them all the assistance nee
cessary. This can be done only with
the aid of the government,
The government should issue, as d
war measure, securities to give to the
railways of the country the means
necessary to put themselves in first
class condition, and there should be
nc interference with the management
of the roads.
If this is done, this great industrial
army will make a forward movement
that will whip the Kaiser before snow
flies at the end of the year.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1918-01-04

The battle cry of the national indus
trial army is Production, More Pro-
duction, the Utmost Production"
If this war is to be won quickly, it
must be by having in hand all mater
ial necessary to supply our men in the
field with the necessary ammunition,
guns, foodstuffs and clothing to keep
them in a healthy and aggressive atti-
tude.
When the nation cried aloud in the
spring of 1917 for help in the raising
of grain, the people arose in their
might and raised a crop that broke
the worlds records and this will go
far towards winning the war.
When the great steel plants of the
country were called upon to produce
metals necessary from which to make
cannons, guns, ships and implements
Of all kind, they responded with en-
thusiaSm and energy which has gone
far towards supplying all that was
needed.
When the railways were called up
on to transport materials and men
across the country, they with their
crippled equipment, lacking terminal
facilities, tracks and power, accom-
plished wonders and increased the
tonnage moved by them up to mar
Vicious figures
When the coal operators of the
country were called upon to produce
coal necessary to keep the world in
motion. they were probably better pre-
pared than any other to respond For
years, during a depression Of their
business, they had been wise enough
and generous enough to keep their
mining plants In a condition to pro-
duce a maximum tonnage if demands
were made upon them. They were
mining coal to such an extent that II
competed against itself in open mar
kets until there was no profit what
ever made In the production Of coal
Now, however, when the nation needs
this material, the mines Of the country
are equipped to furnish "a world
breaking record for the year 1918.
Now the coal producers are getting
ready for q drive of one billion ton:
of coal for the coming year. This

Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the dose mother insisted
on-castor oil, calomel, cathartics.

against taking them.

physic simply don't realize what they
do. The ~children's revolt is we'll

Constipation, or .inaction of the
bowels, is a great mencae to health
Cathartic or purga4ive remedies
should never be given to children
as the violence Of their action tends
to upset the entire digestive syS-
tenn. A mild laxative is far pre-
ferable, and the combination Of
simple laxative herbs with pepsin

sin, and sold in drug stores for so
cents a bottle,i is highly recommend
ed. This preparation contains ne
plate, narcotic, or habit forming
drug of any description, is mild and
gentle in its action, and brings re-
lief in an easy, natural manner. Its
pleasant taste appeals to children
and they take it readily.
Thousands of mothers have tes-
tilted to the merit of DR.. CaldwelPs
