JEWISH CHARITIES.

al conference or JEWISH Nldlltleo
will be held in Atlantic City, May
27-June 1st, and marks the TWEEN
tieth anniversary of the Conference
which was organized in 1899.
The rapid growth of Jewish So
cial Service agencies in the Unit
ed States and the increasing COM
plexity of the problems confronting
them emphasized the fact that the
work was not local but inter-com-
munal in it's scope. 1t was realized
that there should be some means by
which those interested in the work
might hold counsel upon the prob
lens that faced them, where they
might exchange experiences, come
to some common understanding as
to standards and methods and ct
feet a mutual cooperation in all
matters pertaining to the relief and
betterment of the Jewish poor.
Thirty-two organizations COM
posed the initial Conference, which
now embraces 1888 constituent Soci-
cites representing % cities in 81
states and three in Canada and all
individual membership Of 1900.
Besides the general benefit de-
rived from interchange of ideas and
experiences the following definite
achievements should be recorded to
the credit of the Conference:
/. The promotion of the spirit of
social service in the different COM
munities and the encouragement of
the Federation movement.
2. The adoption of the Transport
tation Rules, regulating the treat
ment of the transient poor and
abating the pernicious practice of
the passing on" policy.
3. The intensive study Of the
problem of dependent children lead
ing to improvement in child caring
agencies and the encouragement OF
the placing out system.
4. The establishment of the Ma
tiona1 Desertion Bureau

AWAITING CLASSIFICATION
 OF RATES ON CONCENTRATES

WASHINGTON, D. c. June a. Producers of valuable ores and manu- lecturers, of ferro, liquid, or powder concentrates from such ores are be- coming anxious over the delay in the decision of the Railway Administra- ton as to the policy to be pursued in rating these substances. What threat ened to develop into a general reclass- ification of rates in the West was giv- en publicity through request from the Denver District Freight Traffic Committe for the promulgation of an order apparently effecting only Col orado Shippers. The Committee pro- posed to cancell released values eX- ceeding SlO0 per ton and, in lieu thereof, to increase the rates by 1 per cent per ton of ore, ferro or blue pow der for every $10O increase in value, being an increase of $1 per ton in freight rate for every increase in value of $100 per ton or fraction thereof. This ruling would have is sued in May but for lively protest by the American Mining Congress which held that the precarious condi- tions of the rare metal industry made further burdens dangerous. A final hearing in Chicago June 18th was at tended by number of Colorado Min ing Operators, by James F. Call breath, Secretary and Clifford Thorne, attorney for the Mining Congress. A majority of the members of the Vest ern Freight Traffic Committee and officials of the R. R. Administration heard the arguments made by Secre- tary Callbreath and Attorney Thorne, the former depicting graphically the destructive results of the order which would close down large number of Colorado mines and depopulate sev- eral mining towns. The later showed that the principal of passing rates up- on released value has been voluntarily recognized by Act of Congress and approved by the Inter State Commer- ce Commission. Both warned against the adoption of such proposed new basic rate throughout the West.
 During the hearing number of the Traffic Committeeman expressed themselves as favorable to using the value of the ore at point of origin without adding either transportation or treatment charges, when rates are based on value. They agreed with the shippers that it was wrong to pay freight charged on freight-as is now the practice.
 That the determination to spread a general order for advanced rates on ores had been agreed upon is now made manifest by a request just filed for increases in rates on base bullion and shelter products from Black Eagle, Anaconda, Basin, Butte, Full Ter, Helena, Monarch, Silver and Wolf Creek, Montana and Tacoma, Seattle and Northport, Wash, to eastern des- tinations. ~-l~'w

FALSE. SIDES. OF. SHIP. FORM
 HUGE LIFE-SAVING RAFT

Emergency launching of ifeboats and rafts from a ship in distress is frequently attended by confusion of serious consequence. In an effort to give absolute safety and precision to the operation of removing passengers and crew, a Chicago inventor provides enormous life rafts which normally form false sidees of the ship. Each raft, of hollow, air-tight construction, may be as long as the straight DOT ton of the vessels sides. Socket Jugs on the ship hold the lower edge of the raft below the water line, and cables bind the upper edge to the deck side. Loosing these cables allows the whole raft to fall outward to the waters surface, it's buoyancy releas- ing it from the lower Jugs. When it is afloat, hinged side walls are raised and locked in position, and the passen- gers transferred by means of ladders or chutes. Portholes, corresponding to those in the ship, penetrate the body of the raft, but are closed by slides after launching.

DANGER OF COAL FAMINE IN EUROPE
.!l.$kjIAl~

Dr. J. B. Umbleby famous as the international expert of the U. s. Geo. logical Survey returned Thursday from Europe where he was called to advise the Peace commissioners upon the mineral resources of Germany and the German colonies. To a represen- tative of the American Mining Con- gress Dr. Umbleby related startling evidences of the grave danger to Flu rope from coal famine.
 In England, although public dis cussion is not allowed, strikes have so reduced production in many coal districts that the output is negligible. Many of the high cost producing prop critics are closed down because of post war conditions and labor difficulties. The great coal fields of Westphalia which have always supplied central Europe have been closed down by the strike. In Poland the Silesian pro- duction is almost nil owing to the confusion and Reorganization of all industries incident to the Polish Czecho-Slavic controversies. The de- yaststicn caused by the Germans in the mines Of northern France have reduced fuel production in France to a minimum and there will be short age for industrial and domestic pur- poses. In the sections where Bolshe- vism has possession-industry is stag nant and indication are that not only will industries and transportation sui fer-but great misery and exhorbi- tant pricer will prevail all over Eu- rope through the disorganization which prevents the necessary accumu- lation of fuel in advance of the heavy winter demands.

A MESSAGE TO EMPLOYERS

Following is a letter received from the War Department:
 To the Editor,
 My Dear Sir:
 Doubtless you know our work of getting positions for discharged sol djers and sailors has gotten away to good start.All over the United Stat es the War Department is securing the hearty cooperation of all the well fare services, chambers of commerce, labor unions, employers associations, and many national, state and civic bodies, all of whom are at liberty to use the machinery of the United Stat es Employment Service towards hooking up the discharged man of the Army and Navy with good job.
 We have also had the patriotic as- sistance of employers, corporations, firms, and individuals, in the matter of reinstating their old men in the jobs they held before they went to war. I may add that between 70 % and S0% of our honorably discharged soldiers and sailors have the offer of their pre-war jobs. The hero of to- day is not to become the hobo of to- morrow.
 In return for this the War and Navy Departments have prepared hand some citation which is issued to all those employers who have assured the departments that they will gladly re- employ everybody who formerly work ed with them and left to serve in the Army or Navy during the great war. This citation carries with it permis- sion for the holder to display on his firms service flag the shield of the United States as a symbol that he will fulfill his obligations to the men who went to the defense of the coun- try at the time of it's peril.
 As yet I do not think that em- ployers generally throughout the United States know about this cita- tion and I am writing to you to ask if you will give this letter space in your valuable columns in order that the manufacturers, merchants, profes- sional men, and employers generally in your community may know that they are entitled to this interesting official document.
 The citation is signed by the Secre- tary of War, the Secretary of the Navy, and myself, assistant to the Secretary of War. It is handsomely engraved and engrossed with the name of the recipient. There are no strings to it. All we ask is that the employer write an application for such a citation, stating that he will re-employ his old service men, and address me in care of the War De- partment, Washington, D. c.
 The newspapers of many cities at the outbreak of the war published the names of those patriotic employers who agreed to retain their places for their men who enlisted or were draft ed. It occurs to me now that it would be very fine and patriotic act if at this time, with victory won, the newspapers publish the names of those firms and individuals in their neighborhood who are taking back honorably discharged service men, whether they agreed to or not when the war began.
 Very truly yours,
 ARTHUR WOODS,
 Assistant to the Secretary.
