HOLDS THE KEY.
Civilization of Future Depends En-
tireIy on Religious Faith.

Des Moines, Ia, May 23.-"Chris-
tan education holds the key to the
civilization of the future was de-
cIared in the annual report of the
Presbyterian General Board of Educa-
ton, presented today to the General
Assembly of the Presbyterian church
in the United States of America, by
the general secretary, DR.. Edgar P.
Hill of New York.
This is the end of the second year
of the Challenge fund of the board for
100000 to be raised in eight
years. DR.. Hill continued. 1.-The first
year produced s5.os6,OOO. The past
twelve months added more than
100000. demonstrating beyond a
doubt the value of a Challenge fund
in stimulating financial campaigns for
education.
MANY students in Presbyterian col
leges and candidates for the ministry
would have been utterly unable to pur-
sue their studies but for the boards
financial aid. One young man was
discovered so straitened that he was
making a dinner of frozen apples in
an orchard. Two sisters in one college
pay their board by kitchen work, but
the board had to come to the rescue
for their other expenses"

BATTLE FOR FOREIGN TRADE
Moscow Is Center of Bidders for Rus
sian Commerce=AH Wary.

Moscow. Nay 23.-The Bolshevik
government anticipates a great revival
of foreign trade this summer. These
hopes are based upon the presence in
Moscow of a number of German,
Swedish and other representatives of
big capital
Up to the present time the accom-
plishments of these capitalists are un-
known or Incomplete. but there can
be no doubt that important negotia-
tions for -rman participation in the
industrial restoration of Russia are
under way.
German and Swedish locomotives
ordered last year are now arriving in
increasing numbers. There are ru
mors of important conferences. with
Krupp and other German firms which
might lead to reconstruction by the
Germans of all Russia's damaged rail
way rolling stock and repair shops.
Short term credits have been
granted by German and Swedish firms
for small orders. A number of ship
ments have been made on the basis of
collections at the point of delivery.
