Country VIII Return to Normally
When Citizens Become Normal -
Church Reaches the Home.

thuFch Reaches the Home.
WINONA LAKE, Ind. May 23.-In
connection with the efforts of the Presby-
terrain church to promote universal peace,
John w. Weeks. secretary of war, was
asked to present to the Presbyterian
general assembly, now in session here, a
statement giving his views regarding the
function of the church in the solution of
the nations problems. As a result, the
following message from Secretary Weeks
was read today to the Presbyterian com
missioners assembled from all parts of
the country:
THE nation is gradually. putting its
house into order, but neither the President
by executive decree nor the congress by
the enactment of legislation can wholly
return the country to a normal state. The
solution of our problems. both social and
industrial. will not be very difficult when
the citizen himself decides to return to a
state of normally; and it is in this con-
nection that the church, l think. has a
duty to perform, the Importance of which
cannot be over emphasized.
The first line of defense of the repub-
lie from the enemy without and the enemy
within is not the navy nor the army, but
the home. This great nation was founded
on the little group Of sturdy Christian
homes that constituted the Plymouth col
Ony. and it is to the American home that
America owes its greatness and power,
not to its commerce. its mighty fleets, or
its victorious armies. 1t is the source of
our strength and we cannot lessen its in
fuence or Importance without dangerously
weakening the very foundation of the re-
public. Keep the home fires burning and
BOlshevism and I. w. W.ism and anarchy
will die of malnutritiOn.
There are abroad in the land infiu-
CnceS which are steadily undermining the
home life of America. and the tendency of
our modern life is to seek substitute for
the home. In returning the nation to a
state of nOrmalcy, our first dury is the
restoration of the sanctity. the integrity
and the Importance of the American home
The church is in more intimate relation
ship with the home than any other agency
in the body politics. and in these days of
reconstruction the church can if it will
exert Il steadying and SOLDERING influence
in a time when men are not inclined to
think clearly. and can render the nation
and itself no greater service than to
undertake. as its part in the reimbursement
of the affairs Of the country. the re-estab-
lishment of the old-fashioned American
home.

opinion in England which is sympa-
thetic to the American point Of view.
But the British empire as such can
maintain itself only, if at all, by sup
pressing the rise of democratic ideals
in the Orient.
1t is for this reason that we see in
the newspapers articles Of British in
spiration speaking on behalf Of the
Japanese alliance. 1t is argued in the
first place that this alliance need not
be at all inimical to the United States.
In the second place it is suggested that
the alliance be made n tripartite agree
ment to include the United States.
All of this argument, say the ex-
perts, is specious. An alliance between
Japan and England would inevitably
work against the United States in the
Far East, whatever its stated terms.
The proposed tripartite agreement
would merely have the effect Of tying
the hands of the American govern
ment.

Warehousing Cotton.


From the way some of the people
were talking during the early part of
the season." said Vic Iiambright, OF
Glover, last Saturday, 'it looked as if
we might as we'll consider the conver-
sion of our cotton warehouse to other
uses. or course l did not think that
any such thing would ever be neccs-
sary; but that would have been the cue
from the way many people were talk
ing as l said.
But now the warehouse is about
full, and we are hard put to take care
of the cotton we are being asked to
store"
"All that talk was from people who
got stuck by holding" put in by
stander
Well there might have been some
of that" replied Mr. Hambright, and
no doubt there were many who would
have Jared better if they had sold
instead of stored; but suppose there
had been no warehouses, how would
the holders us a whole have cCmc out?
You would have seen cotton go below
ten cents. that is all

warehouse is fit for is to hold the cot
ton for the mills until they set ready
for it," remarked another bystand2r
"Yes, there are people who talk that,

are not people who think. Certainly
the mills are going to buy the cotton
as ch ,aply as they can; but if there
had been no warehouses, they would
have bought it cheaper than they are
now buying it, The principal reason
right now WHY the mills are not load
ing Nh with cotton is because they
have not the money with which 10 buy

great deal cheaper they could set the
