Would Drive
OutGamblers

JOHNSON CITY. Tenn.-A de-
termined drive on the part of min
listers and ministerial associations
throughout the Appalachian re-
gion is being carried on against
petty gambling. particularly
punch boards, in places of business
and gambling devices used by
school children.
There are sins more heinous
than gambling, but few of more
social significance. spokesman
for the group said. IF gambling
could be confined to the wealthy,
il would not wreak such harm, but
the gambling in this section de-
prives mothers and children of
n d food-money and even
makes 1t impossible for some per-
sons to attend church.
I'VE believe the social conse-
quences of encouraging gambling
by merchants are 30 detrimental
as TO make every sensible man
fight it,"

New Liquor Bons
Are Considered
AT Capital
by Religious News Service

WASHINGTON - Extension Of
dry zones around churches and
other institutions in the national
capital is provided in legislation
now pending before a senate COM
mittee. The bill has already passed
the house.
The bill would prohibit any new
liquor licenses within 500 feet of
churches, schools, Fairgrounds, Ii
braries. the soldiers home or the
navy yard. The present rule is
400 feet. It has also been rec
commended that applications for
resistance of licenses within the
restricted institutional areas be
denied.
During testimony on the legisla-
ton, 1t was pointed out that the
national capital has one of the
highest per capita rates of liquor
consumption in the United States.
The pending legislation also
would ban liquor price advertising.

WASHINGTON-Putting 10000
600 more workers into war pro-
duction is the nations big "home
front" job for 1912
This increase from 100000 to
100000 workers in war industries
is considered necessary if we are
able to translate into actual weap-
ons Uncle Sans blueprint for vic
tory-60,0O0 planes, $4,000 tanks,
10000 anti-aircraft guns and 8,000,-
900 tons of shipping this year.
The great bulk of these 100000
new war workers will be men and
women shifted from civilian indus
tries. The others will be drawn
from the rasks of old workers, wom-
en-, young workers just out of school
and the unemployed.
Conversion OF plants will enable
many workers-probably ma
jority of those now in civilian in
dustries-to get into war work with
out leaving their homes. Many
thousands, however, will have to
move to other communities or from
one part of a city to another.
A labor shortage-the biggest the
country has ever seems believed
inevitable later in the year. The
automobile industry, for example,
plans to use approximately twice
as many men in war production
at peak output as it used in max
ing cars.
Women, incidentally, are the big
gest reservoir of potential workers.
Labor statisticians figure some s.
100000 or more could handily be
drawn into the nations working
force.
