eve expect that the day will be
observed by twenty million people"
he said. Governors Senators and
other men prominent in national and
state affairs, fraternal organizations,
business firms, and churches have
already endorsed.
"The observance is very appro-
priately fixed for the Sunday fol-
lowing Thanksgiving. Having on
Thursday partaken beautifully from
well laden tables and rejoiced III
our own prosperity, it is fitting that
on the following Sunday we give
some special consideration to the
needs and distress of those who are
less highly favored.
Luxurious living and self-induig-
ence may be as injurious to the
prospectus as under-nourishment and
starvation are to the less fortunate.
america has contributed more
to the preservation of the childhood
Of Europe and Asia than any other
nation. In American orphanageS in
the Levant there are now more than
$4,000 children who not only have
no father and mothers, but as refu-
gees from Anatolia they have no
country. There are at least $4,000
other orphans and half-orphans i'll
the refugee camps for whom some
provision must be made if they are
not to perish during the coming
winter.
"When people break bread to-
gether, they become friends. On this
international Golden Rule Sunday
people of all nations fguratively
will gather around the same table,
partaking of the same food repre-
senting the menu which the unfortu-
nate children of the Near East hope,
| by the benevolence of the West, to
eat 365 days in the year. But even
this simple menu the orphans can
not have unless the rest of the world
in some measure practices the Col
den Rule and shares prosperity with
these children of adversely.
"These children in considerable
measure, embody the future Of the
Near East. By the international ap-
plication of the principles of the
Golden Rule in dealing with these
orphan children we may be able to
avoid international strife and dis
astrous warfare in the next genera
ton.
"No family, no nation, is too poor
to help others while indulging in
wasteful, non-productive expendi-
lures and consumption of Inquiries,
the value of which would save less
fortunate family or nation from
bankruptcy"

HARR|ES FEARS
NEW WARS IN
EUROPE
General, Returned From
Secret Mission, Says U. s. Is
Well Out of It.
By JOHN C. KLEIN.
Cosmopolitan News Service.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1S.-"Another
European war, in which some of
the largest nations in Europe as
well as the smaller may be in
volved, in the near future, is not
at all improbable" Maj. Gen.
George H. Harries, u. s. A., said
today, following his return from
Europe, where he went two months
ago, presumably on a secret mis-
sion for the War Department, al
though ostensibly to attend a sre-
union of world war veterans.
General Harries held high COM
mand in the American forces over
seas during the world war, at one
time being commandment of the port
of Brest, France, through which
hundreds of thousands Of American
troops passed. In 1918 and 1919
he was chief Of the United States
military mission to Germany.
BreWs i'm Balkans.
''Things are in mighty bad shape
in Europe" he continued. They
might be worse but the mess is
serious enough, as it is. War is
brewing in the Balkans, where it
usually originates and where the
world war had its origin. When 1t
does commence it will lot be long
before other and more powerful ma
tons may be involved

sons for misgivings.
obstacles are being thrown in
her way by Germany, as might
have been expected. The resist
ance being shown may not be con-
fined to passive measures. She
would be foolish to resort to force,
for in that case there could be
only one outcome in the long run,
for France, with her spIendidly or
ganized army trained to the
minute and ready for anything,
would finally subdue her, of course,
Germany not being prepared for
war.
Germany Desperate.
Economic conditions which /

Gliding factor, but If Germany wins,
in an economic sense, it will only
be after she has paid a terrible
price. Germany is desperate now
and viii become more so as days

remains to be seen, but in the

q way that Germany will never
forget.
''It is most serious situation.
