ant I-SUICIDE CLUB
FOR DOWN and CUTTERS
helping Hands Stretched Out BY Sal.
walton Army Workers to the
Despairing.

Many anti-sv eide clubs in the
state Of Kentucky are quietly carry
ing on the work OF inducing people not
20 take their own lives.
These clubs are among the Salvation
Army's many agencies for graphing
with moral and social problems. Prac-
dcally every active Salvation Army
corps in the state has one of these
Ielubs-whether the agency bears the
name of "Anti-Suicide Club or not.
State Army officials report that local
Salvation Army officers frequently are
notified Of cases of attempted suicide,
or of those safTc~,ng from morbid i'm
pulses. Particulars in these cases come
from police, relatives of the distressed
persons, or through other agencies.
Salvation Army officers. when they
hear of a case of a person being on the
verge of taking his own life, immedi-
sately call on the person and give what
tadvice or relief is necessary. By talk
ing things over with the Salvation
Army officer, the person gets differ
ent view of things and often concludes
that life is worth while.
This is one of the many agencies fol
good in the work of the Salvation
Army, whose Home Service Campaign
Is on in Kentucky, May 1920.

cheer others.

"AMERICA FIRST" IS UNPOPULAR
 TO EUROPEANS

New York, Oct. 5-The slogan, America First" is unpopular among Europeans who deem it an expres- sion of selfishness, according to the Rev. Charles $. Mcfarland, General Secretary of the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America who has just returned from a series of religious conferences in Switzer- land and a speaking tour of Western European cities.
 For an American to be in Eur ope at this time is humiliating and sometimes almost dish eartening,' ,' said Dr. Mcfarland. T found the people there confused. They do not know what to make of America s present a1oofness; it seems to them such a sharp contrast to our attitude during the war. I found the people the problems of reconstruction. one of their greatest need at the present time is that of moral SUD- port.
 ''The American nation and the American people, on the whole, have not as yet suffered irretrievably in the estimation of Europeans con tinued Dr. Mcfarland. They still believe in us and look to us for help. But thoughtful Europeans are disturbed about one phrase which frequently reaches across the sea- America First. To them it sounds like the words that used to come from across the Rhine-'Deutsch- land uber alles'-not with the same aggressiveness, but with something of the same Selfishness."

FEAR RETURN OF
 HAPSBURC PARTY
 RULE IN HUNGARY
Austrian Democrats Issue Warnings of Such a
 Scheme.

Vienna, Oct. 5.-The Social Demo
 cratic party of Austria, numerically the largest in the Austrian pariia- ment, charges in an appeal it's lead CTS have issued asking for votes in the election for the National Assem-
 bly, on October IT that the counter
 revolutionaries have been victorious
 in Hungary and that their "lynchings for restoration in that country of the rule of the Hapsburgs."
 "Carl Hapsburg has broken his word and refused to resign the Aus trian throne,'' the socialists aver. "He is to be made King of Hungary in Budapest and from there he is to bring German Austria into subject
 ton. The blood of our peasants and our workers is again to be placed in the service of the Hungarian feuda1 lords who are arning for war to re- conquer Slovakia, Siebenbuergen and the Banat." The socialists then
 charge that the Kunschak-Funder group of the Christian. Socialist party is the tool of the Hungarian mon- archists.
 This appeal and other campaign literature, not only of the Socialist groups but the Conservatives as for union with Germany. From the day of our breakdown it says, i've social Democrats have said German Austria alone cannot be a living
 
 lot so long as union with Germany does not free us.'
 It planes France for preventing g this end but declares that the history of the Czechs, the Poles and Jugo- Slavs proves that a people finally
 achieves it's own right of self-deter- imitation in spite of all opposition and all obstacles if only it remains firm in it's desire.
 The Social Democrats put forward as their issues the reforms they have advocated since the formation of the republic and which they assert have been defeated by the com bined bour- Seois opposition. In the main these are suppression of the power of the
 clericals, taxation of capital and great estates, age and invalid in surance, school reforms including
 separation of schools and church,
 adequate pay for public servants, and similar meas asures.
 To this end it demands that so- cialization of great industries mines, vast realty holdings and banking so that their earnings, instead of en- riching private persons may give to the state the means for fulfilling it's social and cultural tasks.'' The Christian Socialists are also charged with obstructing this pro-
 gram so long that the control of many of the most valuable natural sources of wealth such as the iron | mines of Styria and Carinthia have passed to Italian control and now foreign protests make impossible the full realization of the socialization scheme.

Dublin, Oct. 5.-No attempt has

 suppress effectively the Sim Fein

 But civil trials, in the nature of ar bitrations between willing parties, are openly held every day. In many dis tricts they have completely superseded

Unionists as well as the Nationalists The Sim Fein judges, appointed by election, are sworn in publicly with due ceremony and regular attorneys High Court of Justice, appear before them. The assize judges al the re- cent assizes found that about 70 per cent of the cases listed for trial had been withdrawn from the record and transferred to the republican courts. The Westmeath County Council has decide that all British court-houses in the county shall be closed and have asked the republican police to pre- vent the buildings from being used for the holding of courts not recog- nized by the republican government. At Swinford in East Mayo, re- and tried 30 cases mostly involving title to land and houses. They tried

 At Loughrae an Ulster Presby- terian appeared before a republican n
