Plans for holding . national con-
vocation of American Protestants
during 1914 were laid aside for the
time being due to uncertainty Of
conditions. 1t had been proposed
that many Protestant denomina-
tions hold their national meetings
IN Chicago at the same time during
1914, together with sessions of the
proposed Council Of Churches Of
Christ in North America, which Is
being formed through the merger
OF eight INSTRUMENTATION Coop
erative agencies.
About 5000, 900 persons in camp
and defense communities will be
reached by the religious war work
of interdenominational agencies by
the end of the year, 1t was an
nounced at meeting OF the Inter-
national Council Of Religious Educa-
tion in Chicago. More than 27,OOO.-
600 people are now being reached,
1t was said.
The Mississippi Legislature passed
q bill making 1t . felony to preach
or otherwise utter tenets condemna-
tory to United States participation
in the war. Gov. Paul B. johnson

aimed principally at the sect known
as Jehovahs Witnesses.
The Army began . survey OF theo-
logical seminaries to discover the
number Of graduates during the past
20 years. 1t was part of a move to

Quoting religious service on ships

steps were taken independently by
Great Britain.
The Japanese have never been
represented at the Holy See and
their move was regarded in WASH
ington as an attempt to obtain the
sanction OF the Vatican for their
| actions in the Far East.
An explanation of the Vatican's
position was given this week by
Archbishop Spellman of New York,
who mentioned the subject during
the course Of q brief address at st.
Patrick's Cathedral.
He declared that the Pope must be
impartial and receive the repre-
sentative Of any nation, only break
Ing his neutrality in deciding be-
tween right and wrong. He pointed
out that the Roman Catholic Church
Is universal both in kind and men,
bership. and that the Pope must re-
gard all Catholics as his children.

That Is why, he said, the Vatican
must accept the ENJOYS Of any ma
ton that chooses to take up their
contacts with the Holy See.
Archbishop Spellman pointed to
the Japanese Catholics and the
Catholics Of other nationalities un-
DER japanese domination with
whom. he said. the Pope must keep
contact. There are reported to be
100000 Roman Catholics in japan.
while the number of Catholics un-
der Japanese rule has not been esti-
mated.

teer defense workers, were called
adequate today by workers who
were called shortly before
o'clock last night to participate

blasts. calling workers from their
homes and businesses. At the

telephones with calls for key
figures in the civilian defense
lsetup.
Hardly had the whistles ceased
before air raid wardens took their
positions. Fire-fighters and police

Shows Up Badly

Togo's housekeeping shows up something awful in recent pic lures taken of Kiska Island by United States airmen now in al most daily raids and pushing their plane-a-day record hard
 The pictures were taken dur ing raids, and they give good idea of what is to be seen when the weather is clear enough for a photographer to see anything at all over the Japanese-occup ed island.
 They demonstrate that the Jap anese certainly have not aban- doned Kiska. In fact, apparent ly they are bending every effort to make the base stronger and to get as much as possible of it underground.
 Some of these underground ef- forts are little laughable from a camouf1age standpoint of course it would not be so laugh able if our own forces were try

AN ALASKAN BASE - Tut tut, Togo, what housekeeping You didn't finish the grass roof on that hut, and, even when you do, it's going to leak. You've left lumber just thrown around any where And those holes in the ground are downright ugly. In fact, they're not only ugly; they are obvious
 And whoever told you that anybody on Kiska planted gar dens in straight rows? You must have thought they did, else you wouldn't have bothered to make that little building look like a nice. straight-roWed vegetable garden from the air.
 As for those wrecked planes lying around, some in the water and some out, with the noses shot off, and others with only part of the wings left - why, Togo, how could you be so slop- py?

Fooled For While
Nevertheless the Japanese hay

made desperate efforts.
 They made a beach look like a runway - and it had United States airmen fooled for little while.
 They set dummy planes in rows that fooled nobody.
 But, most of all, they've at tempted to get underground; sinking buildings into pits and then putting grass roofs over them; putting dirt roofs on their structures; filling in parts of the island and cutting out others.
 However, the Americans, in re cent pictures, found the Japs had been so busy on such projects they haven't taken time out even to pull down the Zeros or wreck ed seaplanes off the beach; to repair damaged barges or do much of anything else,
 About the bomb damage. of course, Togo, you were a little puzzling to us when we saw you in that one picture, running-do zens of you-down the beach as the plane came over.
 The men who study the pic lures looked a long time at those running figures, but they finally figured it out. It was those queer shaped figures up above you in picture. Apparently they didn't have you fooled. And that's why you ran.
 They were falling bombs. were n't they, Togo?
