President of Ell Paso Bank De-
cIareS That FauIt-Finding
Was Due to Prejudice, Ig-
noranCe or Ingratitude,
(By james Graham McNary.)
President First National Banw, Ell
PaSo.

Paso.
| wish to make it clear that in this
artice l am dealing with the work of
the Y. NJ. C. a. in general and not in
any detail The latter would require a
book, rather than a newspaper article.
l want to help those who desire the
truth, and who favor justice and fair
play, to answer the general question.
Was the great work of the Y. NJ. c. A.
with the American expeditionary
forces splendid success, or was it
sorry failure? Can we ever hereafter
point with pride" to its part in help
ing win the war, or must we everlast-
ingly be apologizing for its failures
and shortcomings? DO we deserve the
sturdy defense in "Leslie's'' for Janu-
airy 25, entitled. Fair Play for the Y.
NJ. c. A." or have we merited the
weak apology in Life for January
23, entitled, THE Y. NJ. c. AS short
comings?"
The Y. NJ. C. A. was doing war work
under war conditsons-not running a
pink tea. We are entitled TO be judg
ed by the same standards which are
applied to our great national war eff
fort which, in spite of necessary
blunder and mistakes, achieved
glorious success.
