The mayors letter of instruction to the War Bureau is in part as fol- lows:
 q believe we should have 8 com mittee whose primary concern it should be to look after the welfare of the returning soldiers and sailors, assisting them in finding employment when mustered out of the service. am of the opinion that the local draft boards know more about the individual conditions of the men, and are therefore, in better position to meet the situation than any other in dividuals that I could name. I therefore nominate the six local boards to constitute such a commit tee, and designate MT. Sanford Stoddard as president of this com mittee, with the suggestion that they meet and formulate plans and make themselves ready to undertake this work. Our Iraft boards have ren- dered exceptional services and are peculiarly well fitted to handle this problem. This committee is to be- come identified with the War Bureau and to operate as one of its boards. I very glad to attend their meeting for organization, and I shall be pleased to be present also, If MT. Stoddard will advise mo when he desires to call meeting"
 When asked if any further plans had been formulated to carry out this work Justice Wheeler said The mo- tices of their appointment have been sent to the members of the Draft Boards, and l have no doubt all will undertake the work. l have talked over with Chairman Stoddard the general subject, but of course, the decision as to what shall be done must await the meeting of the com mittee. Quite probably some cen tral office will be opened where re- turning soldiers and sailors can go for any kind of information they re- qIire. The committee will no doubt supplement and follow up the work of the other activities engaged In se- curing employment and caring for our returning heroes. We shall have to find out as we go along just what to do. Of one thing we may be certain, this highly important work will be done by this committee with efficiency and the greatest sympathy, The public has no idea of the enor- nous amount of labor which has fallen on our Draft Boards. They have gone ahead uncomplainingly and as the government placed upon them new duties, taken them up and carried them out with the utmost fidelity. They have had my strong admiration all through these times and am especially pleased that Mayor Wilson pays them so deserved compliment. He could not have shown better judgment or a keener appreciation of what the members oi these boards have done, than by placing them on this committee. They

The council of Trent con tinued it's sessions for eighteen years and decreed the seven sacraments of baptism, confirmation, the Lords supper, penance, extreme unction, or ders and matrimony; and many oth- CT doc rines, including celibacy of the clergy, and the auricular confession. 1 The doctrine of the immaculate con ception of the Virgin did not become an essential article of the Roman Catholic faith until 1854, and some other doctrines are also of later date than the Council of Trent, but for the greater part the faith of the Ro'

facts. We should realize what is be-
fore us. We should discard unjusti-
fed optimism. We should set our
faces stern and unbending for but
one purpose-'War, war, war"
In one OF the most powerful Ad-
dresses ever delivered before an
American audience. former President
William Howard aft summed up in
the above language his idea of the
position which the United States now
has taken. He called for complete
overthrow OF the Hohenzollern rule.
The utter untrustworthiness OF the
Kaiser as a signatory to . peace
treaty, he declared. is shown by Ger
many's actions. There no longer is
the slightest reason. in his opinion,
for belief that any peace by negotia-
uiOn is possible. Mr.. Taft re-echoed
the declaration Of President Wilson
that force must now be met with
force. He denounced in scorching
language the German actions in Rus
sia and Roumania.
