Go out and get these men of money
whose purse strings are so hard to
loosen. 1t is up to you to make way
with the men whose philanthropic i'm
pulses are so well controlled that they
stint in their. giving to this worthiest
of all causes"
That was the behest and the charge
of DR.. Frank L. Loveland to the Sal
walton Army campaigners at the first
noon luncheon of the campaign at the
Chamber of Commerce this noon.
Doctor LoYeland was speaking from
the lack of reports of large subscrip-
tions-the almost utter dearth of
three figure contributions He point
ed to the fact that the business men
of Topeka cannot afford to allow the
laboring classes to point to this home
the Salvation Army is going to build
at the northeast corner of Fifth and
Quincy streets and say, we did II
alone
Doctor LoveIand spoke feelingly of
the difference in attitude shown by
some Of the men who should be the
largest contributors and one laboring
man who was reported today. The la
boring man told the solicitation COM
mittee that he had neither money nor
workout he said he wished to give
to the Army for the building of the
home. The laborer signed a pledge
card to do So worth of work on the
home in lieu of paying in actual cash.
Rainbow Lieutenant Speaks.
Lieutenant Young, late of the Rain
bow division in France, was the other
principal speaker on the bill this noon.
He spoke of the peregrinations of the
now famous 42nd division in France
and said that wherever the division
was on the fighting front, there also
was the Salvation Army handing out
doushnuts to the boys entering the
trenches and to the boys coming out
of the trenches.
Lieutenant George McDermott, now
just a plain citizen, spoke highly of
the work of the Salvation Army over
seas. McDermott says he knows little
Of what happened up the line"-but
he asserts that it was plenty, and the
saliva tion Army made the plenty
lighter for the men.
Just before the campaigners re-
turned to their work of raising the
funds for the $4,000 Army home in
Topeka, Big Bill" Biby, campaign di-
rector. adjured the workers to
intensity their efforts and to urge on
the people the necessity of putting the
campaign over the top.
Biby asked the campaigners to i'm
press on the minds of the individual
subscribers that it is necessary that the
volume of individual subscriptions be
increased. He meant that the indi-
vidual should increase his subscription
to this fund if the drive is to go over
without re-canvass of the districts
The campaigners will report at the
Chamber of Commerce tomorrow
noon. 1t is expected that a goodIy
number Of big subscriptions will be
reported at that time

Delegates Take Pessimistic View of
Situation in Their Country.

Paris. March 25.-Jugo-Slav dele
gates to the peace conference took a
pessimistic view today of the situa-
ton in their country, Poland and Ru-

fear said one delegate. that in view
of the geographic situation of these
countries their resistance to the
spread of Bolshevism may be broken
and that the Bolshev1ki may overrun
central Europe. The Hungarian revo-
luton signifies not only an extension
of the Bolsheviki movement to the
doors of Vienna, Budapest and Bel
grade but an alliance between the
Russian and Hungarian soviet. Per-
haps the Austrian and German Social
list may be involved"
