ALL RESERVES GO
There Is No Money To Run the
Navy of U. S. on Now.
Failure of Congress To Act
Causes Release for Many.

Washington, April 4.-Because of
the failure of congress to enact the
naval appropriation bill with its ro-
vision for an increased naval per-
sonnet, practically all members of the
naval reserve force on active duty
must be released Immediately upon
the declaration of peace. In making
this announcement today, the navy de-
partment said that because of this
fact and of the great need of Off
GERS. due both to the continuing ac-
tivities of the navy and the shortage
of regular officers, it would be mad
visable generally to accept the resig-
nation of officers of the temporary
navy.
Many of these officers have asked to
be relieved from duty so as to return
to civil life, but attention was called
by the department to the fact that
they are under obligation to perform
active duty with the navy for a pc
Rod of not later than six months
after the termination of the war 1t
was announced, however, that resig-
nations of such officers would be ac-
cepted as additional officers were
made or appointed in the temporary
or permanent naval force.
Must Bring Boys Home.
"Our troops abroad must be brought
home,'' said the departments an
nouncement, land they must be fed and
provided for over there before they
come home. Our associates in the
war still require food and provisions.
To do this work, the navy today is
operating ITO troop transports and 21O
cargo carriers. The temporary Of
ficers of the navy are making this
work possible because the department.
can count upon holding them for six
months after peace is signed
THE regular navy is busy keeping
the fighting forces on edge, the reser-
visits are going out fast and will be
obliged to go as soon as peace is signed
which will leave the bulk of the tenn.
porary officers available and necessary
to transport and provision our troops
over there.
Adjustments in personnel are
rapidly being made with this end in
view"

for vacation and the remainder of the
time was spent at Boston university,
taking special course prepared especial
liz for rural workers. The people were
glad to welcome home the pastor and his
family and on Sunday morning he was
greeted with a good audience, which lis
tened attentiyely to very able sermon
The subject was, "The Voice of the Pull

YOU and it certainly was message
that everyone should have heard Mr.
Goddard outlined the kind of message
that should be brought TO the people by
the pastor, that il should be instructive,
dealing with present day conditions and
issues in the commercial world and the
political world as well as in the moral
world. Being in Boston during the re-
cent policemen's strike and knowing by
experience the horrors Of ii, he used it to
illustrate conditions that are general all
over the country. He showed plainly the
cause OF such conditions, why there are
thugs--lack of training in the home, the
school and the church He also gave the
remedy, which is the Bible-the open Bi-
Bile in the home, in the public schools and
more OF t. in the church to teach the
youth, yea the grown person. that the
only life really worth while is the one
built on the Bible as foundation; that
the crisis through which our nation is
passing viii result in defeat unless the
people are educated in Gods word and
taught to obey his laws. The evenings
address was equally as good; the sub
eet, "The Voice Of the Pew" showed
those who sit in the pew what their
duty is to help bring about relief from
conditions described in the mornings ad
dress. Personal evangelism was the key
note. Next Sunday union services will
be held at the Methodist church. The
subject of the address will be "Tndus

DIFFICULT TASK

Accuse Him of Favor

structed to maintain order at Spalato
where he is stationed on board the cruis-

seven destroyers and two submarine

The task before Admiral Andrews Is
very difficult, as feeling runs high be-

obliged to frequently intervene to pre-
vent serious disorders. Reports state
that as a result both parties accuse him
Of siding with their opponents. The
cruiser Olympia, formerly Admiral An.

seven destroyers which have been sta
