Negro, the mountain white, the

of the real services which they
can do for their country, Metho-
dists declare, and they are going
about doing that service before
America becomes embroiled in
the unrest of Europe.
In addition to the mission
schools which they will estab-
lish, Southern Methodists will
spend a large part Of their thir-
ty-five million on settlement
houses in the down and out dis
tricts of the large cities of the
South. Plans for the various
forms of settlement work which
the Methodists will do includes
work for the Negroes through
their Bethlehem houses, work
for the mill operatives through
their Wariota Settlements and
innumerable other enterprises
for taking care Of the derelicts
and down-and-outs in the cities
OF the South. Several very large
settlements will be built and
other already established en-
larged in practically every state
in the South. Churches will be
built in both the city and rural
districts and the circuit rider, in
particular, will receive a more
Hvable salary. One of the most
important and unique phases of
uplift which the Methodists will
undertake as a result of the Cen

But the Methodists have OPP
ened the windows and looked
further than America in their
effort to spend the thirty-five
million dollars to the best advan-
tage at this time. Europe, par
ticularly, needs help now, say
the sons of Wesley, and Metho-
dists will not falter in their re-
sponsibility there. Men of
France and Belgium are return
ing to broken homes, shattered
ideals. The church will seek to
give these men something new
to take hold of-churches of
themselves, schools for their
children, social gathering places
where something OF the warmth
and cheer of life will be given
them again. These are some of
the ways, in which the church
will carry on in the regions where
war has swept the land in Bel
GUM, France, Italy, and Russia,
for Russia is especially to re-
ceive the sympathetic and prac-
teal interest of the Methodists.
Five million of the thirty-five
will be put into rebuilding these
needy regions in Europe, and the
Methodists declare it is the best
five million of the entire amount
which they will spend.
The remaining millions are
to be spent in the foreign fields
of Africa, Brazil, China, Cuba,
Japan, Korea and Mexico. In all
of these countries the Metho-
dists will establish medical
schools, hospitals, mission
schools and churches, and devel-
op missionary work along every
line which opens up. During the
next few years large portion
Of the money spent in these

posed to Prohibition to hold its "lib-

the anniversary of the firing Of the

would pay $40 out of his own SALARY

OF the association, would reconsider
its postponement.
The reason givcn-a desire not to
interfere with Holy Saturday or with

New Wire Charges
Are Not Necessary.
Mackay Declares
Postal Would Return to Old
Rates if Government
Would Return Lincs.Head
of Company Now Insists
By BRIGGS

Contending that the new TELEGRAPH
rates which went into effect Yesterday
arc absolutely unnecessary, Clarence
II. Mackay. president of the Postal
Telegraph Cable Company said that if
Postmaster General Burlcson would re-
turn its lines to the Postal COMPANY
the company would restore tho old
rates Immediately. Mr.. Mackay charged
that under the new tariffs the public
would lose approximately $4,000 900
year.
Mr. Mackay also charged that the
reason Mr. Burleson raised the rates
was that he had promised the Western
Union Company to pay moro than was
justified. In his statement Mr.. Mackav
said:
The total telegraph business of the
country is approximately S80oOo,0Oo.
ms 20 per cent increase ordered bv
Mr.. Burlcson means an increase Of
Slo,ooO,00o to the telegraph users.
Earning Double Compensation
"1hat it is absolutely unnecessary 10
incrcaso telegraph rates is shown hv
the fact that the representatives of tho
Postmaster General now find VIC have
been able to hold up our earnings and
protts to expectations, and those earn

ing July 81, 1918 (thc date when the
Eovcrnmcnt claims TO have taken con-
trol) Will be more than twice the com.
pensatlon which Mr. Burleson has
given our company
During the six months ending Jan
uary IL We have earned more than tho
compensation awarded to us by Post
master General Burlcson for a whole
year. If We had been allowed to keen
our property and operate it we would
not have thought of raising the rates.
"Ihe real fact is that MIR. Burleson
has agreed to pay the Western Union
more than he should have agreed to.
and in order to realize that amount he
has to raise the rates. A second req
son is that the Western Union -Tc]c-
graph Company is not administered
carefully and economically. Even now.
when the government is supposed to
be in control of both companies, the
-Wcstcrn Union has horde of solici-
tors running around trying to get busi-
ness away from the Postal
DO Not Create Business
''Thesc solicitors do not create anv
telegraph business and arc as useless
as would be solicitors for street rail
way.
What Mr. Burlcson intends to do
with the profits which he is taking
away from us we do not know We do
know that If we had been left alone
there would have been no increase in
rates and no loss of profits to US AS
it is now, the Western Union is ahead
of the game, but the public loses $16,-
100000 a year and we lose about 81
100000 under Mr.. Burlcsons award to
us. Our profits from August /, 1918,
to August /, 1919, will apparently be
at least $3,680,O00, without any of the
increased rates, and yet Mr. Burlcson
proposes to allow us only $3.50 900 of
this amount. In other words, Mr.. Bur
lesson gives us $1600,000 and he keeps
$2,000,000 of our profits, and also keeps
all of these increased rates which our
property may earn. This is what call
a "raw deal"

OHOE FASHIONS this

~ spring are delightful. A
Woman's shoe is almost
as light as a glove. The shoes
she wears in the house for
afternoon, the shoes in
which she daintily steps into
her limousine, the slippers
she wears with her evening
gown are all modelled withs
the grace of the sculptor and:
the imagination of the artist
Long, slender pointed toes
Thin turned soles. Heels low or
high as one wishes-although the
newest thing that afternoon and
evening slippers do is TO have low
heels
These dress shoes are made of
exquisite feathers. Patent leath-
er. kidskin, suede, satin. brocade
are some of the materials.
They may be custom made to
order in the Wanamaker Boot
Shop or they can be had ready
to-wear in the Fine Boot Shops.
y !. y
Turned sole shoes are not
quite SO we'll adapted for
walking and street wear.
They are delicately con-
structed and their very
frailty units them for con-
tact with the concrete of city
streets.
Yet the fashion is insistent for
light. graceful shoes. Therefore
the Wanamaker Shoe Store has
specialized this season in very
light welted soles.
These welted sole shoes weigh
hardly any more than those with
turned soles. Weigh one of each
kind in different hands ana there
IS no noticeable difference.
But the welted sole shoes are
made with an inner sole and we
find that for the street they wear
very much better and hold their
shape longer.
Welted sole shoes may be had
IN the greatest variety. There
are high dress boots, there are
pumps with tiny bows. there are
pumps with large buckles, there
are laced oxfords in all feathers.
y j. =
Buckles are again in high
favor. Large buckles. Buck
les from Paris and London.
Buckles specially fashioned
for us in America. We have
our own little shop on the
premises where these buck
les are placed and sewed on
so securely that customers
tell us they are unusually
satisfactory.

Army life has had its in
tluence on sport shoes. Re-
turning soldiers find that
army shoes are so comfort
able that they wish TO con
tinue their use. Women in
the Motor Corps and other
service units also prefer
notifications of the regula-
tion army type boots OF OK
fords. Women not i'll such
units find the shoes are so
good looking that they adopt
them for their own use.
Last winter VIC designed
straight, roomy shoe on regula-
tion lines with low heel. 1t has
proved immensely successful.
Many schools and hundreds of
motor corps women arc choos~
ing it.
It can be had now in both low
and high shoes in tan leather.

outdoor wear. Prices $40 ard
$3.50.

il lish shoemaker, was an
enterprising man. He
had the good sense to cross
the briny deep on the May
flower, and like so many
other sensible Mayhower
passengers, brought most Of
his belongings with him.
You may be sure he had pro
vided himself with q good
supply Of leather. AS soon
as the boat docked Thomas
was ready to make shoes for
all and sundry.
So obliging was he that
instead of building a shop
and making the Pilgrims
traverse the long forest
paths to come to him, he
went to them. First, he
would go to Mr.. William
Bradford's. house and make
shoes for all the Bradfords.
Then he would go to Mr..
Fullcr's house and cobble
shoes for all the FulIers.
And SO on. Shoemaking
kept Thomas Beard busy.
Ever since the day of
Thomas Beard, almost 300
years ago, America has been
interested in its shoes. 1t
has become second nature
for an American to look at
the shoes Of every other
American. No matter how
charming the hat OF pretty
the frock, if the shoes are
not interesting the costume
is not a success.
y = .
American shoes astonish
foreigners. You can go to a
boot shop on Bond Street,
London; or on the Avenue de
L'Opera, Paris, and find
beautiful shoes-but they
are m0dc-to-ord at q made
to-ordel- cost.
Wanamal<er A mcrican
made shoes amaze those who
do not know them because
they look custom made, but
are ready to wear at a third
and a half Of custom-madc
prices.
All kinds Of shoes are
made in America. They have
to be. A hundred million
people in America must have
shoes to wear. Not wooden
sabots. Not straw sandals.
But leather shoes. You can
imagine how fast the fac
tory wheels must turn to
make them all.
The pick Of all these shoes
comes to Wanamaker's be-
cause we GO after them and
have them made our way.
The Wanamaker Shoe
Store is so large and so all
inclusive that each section
helps every other section.
Europe supplies ideas and
models for those who want
individual shoes from the
Custom Boot Shop. Such
ideas are used later on in the
finest ready for service
shoes. They in turn inspire
lines for the less expensive
shoes, and again they help rs
to get better models in the
lower-prlce shoes Down
stairs.
