 New York, N. Y, December g. - The widest possible observance" of the National Day of Prayer on January first, as officially desig- mated today by President Roosevelt, is being promoted by the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America, according to an an- nouncement made here today.
 The Presidents proclamation is in keeping with an annual practice which has been observed on each New Years Day since the entry of our country into the war.
 Dr. Roswell P. Barnes, associate general secretary of the Federal Council, declared that "it is gratify- ing that the Chief Executive of the nation has again taken the initia- tive in calling the American people to unite in prayer at the beginning of 1914"
 '"This year, when nearly 10000, ,00O of our youth are in the armed forces, every family has special req son for remembering its absent members and friends in prayer" he said. Our supplication will also rise to God for those who suffer most from the cruelties of war = the bereaved, the refugees, the pris- oners of war, the hungry in many Iands.''
 "As we enter upon a year which will bring us nearer to the victory, '' he declared, i've shall also voice our united concern for the winning of the peace. We should give thanks to God for the hopeful evidence that our country is preparing to play its part in international cooperation for the building of world order of justice and peace"
 Dr. Barnes expressed the hope that "there will be no community in which churches will not be open for prayer on January first"
 The first week Of the lew year January 2-9, has been designated by the Federal Council as a Univer- sal Week of Prayer. The Councils Department of Evangelism has pre- pared materials and topics for each day of the week for use by individ- uals or congregations meeting for united prayer.
