(Established 1873) > THE RED CROSS UNIVERSAL Now a Sign of Sacrifice and Service, Not of Per- secution By WILLIAM HORACE DAY, Moderator, National Council of the Congregational Churches of the United States In the amputation ward of a great hospital near Washington, a legless soldier said of the Red Cross, “The Red Cross is all right. You can’t say too much of what they do for the boys over there.” That is the universal testi- mony of the men returning from the front. ‘ No less striking is the reac- tion of the Red Cross upon the life at home. A Christian minister and a Jewish lawyer working on the same team last Red-Cross. drive were talking of this symbol. Mindful of cen- turies of injustice and persecution which had been heaped upon the Jews in the name of that Cross, the minister contrasted the feeling of the Chris- tian to whom the cross meant nothing but com- passion and love, and the feeling of the Jew who had been so cruelly wronged in the name of the cross. The Jewish lawyer looked at the Red Cross button in his coat and said, “That is true, but this cross, the Red Cross, has ceased to be the symbol of persecution; it seems to me it is the symbol of the universal religion which is‘nat the religion of doctrine but the religion of sactifice and service.” The Red Cross has greatly strengthened Amer- ica’s solidarity. . It has helped us to understand co- operation with compromise. With our heads we differ but with our hearts we are united. We are one when we serve. WILLIAM HOHENZOLLERN FINDS A PRO- TECTOR! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? William Hohenzollern, supreme felon of the uni- verse, has found a protector! The fellow’s name is Ruiys de Beerenbrouck, premier of Holland. ‘ This Dutch leader says William the Devil is “entitled to the right of sanctuary in Holland!” “Why? Oh, because Hohenzollern came to Hol- land “as a private individual!” Can you beat that? “Right of sanctuary” for a felon! If there is any such thing in Holland now is a good time to abolish it! Unless, of course, Holland is strong enough and big enough to defy the public opinion of the civ- ilized world. It’s a bad thing to do that. William Hohenzollern did it. “ Ruiys de Beerenbrouck will do well to claim he has been misquoted by the newspapers. The only good reason against an allied occupa- tion of Berlin is that the Huns are in favor of it. WAR BOARD LIFTS BAN ON MAKING CHRISTMAS GIFTS Washington, D. C., Dec. 1.—(Spe- cial.)—We are to have an old fash- ioned Christmas, after all. The Coun- cil of National Defense has lifted the restrictions on the production and sale of holiday gifts and to the man- facturer, merchant, and buyer says in effect: “Go to it!” as in the opulent days of peace. The council is chiefly inter- ested in the reabsorption of war labor by the holiday trade. In its announcement of the lifting of the ban the council says: “The Council of National Defense now believes that as one of the steps essential to the rapid establishment of normal after the war conditions it should, and it hereby does, lift its ban In connection with holiday buying, in the desire to give a natural impetus _ tothe reemployment of those normal- ly engaged in the production of holi- ' day material and in the holiday trade. “The council is further impelled to _ this decision by reason of the neces- Believe in “signs,” do you?

Just becaues Wilson uses four extra strokes in to begin doing it. ooo | WITH THE EDITORS AFTER-WAR BUILDING IN THE NORTHWEST Next spring the building trade will be standing on its own feet—perhaps not very sturdily, but on its own feet nevertheless. Builders will not be asking permission to build, and contractors will not be going to Washington to get contracts for war structures. On the contrary, they will be talk- ing with men about home who have an ambition to put a part of their war earnings into factories, res- idenees or income-bearing buildings. When this time comes, the Northwest is in line to fare better than any other section of the coun- try, and for two principal reasons. One is that the Northwest has brought more original, valuable produce out of its soil during the war than any other section ; and the other is that the Northwest has been the least stimulated in the building line by government contracts. Comparative statistics regarding building and engineering operations during the current year to Dec. 1, show that the total of work done in the states.north of the Ohio and east of the Missouri is about one billion six:hundred million, as com- pared with about six hundred million only in the year 1914. But the government work in that territory amounts to thirty-three per cent of the total. : This government work has been unequally dis- tributed throughout the territory named, the East receiving the greater part. For example, New England received thirty-one per cent; New York and Northern New Jersey thirty-seven per cent; the district about Philadelphia,. Baltimore and Washington forty-five per cent; western Pennsyl- -vania.and Ohio thirty-four percent, But the states| of Minnesota and the two Dakotas received only seven per cent. Before this year the percentage of government work in these three states has not risen much above three per cent. Where there has been much temporary construc- tion there must follow much destruction, and in such sections much time will probably be required for the readjustment to normal conditions. But in this immediate northwest the ground is practically clear of the rubbish of war buildings, and the in- crease in the power to build has been enormous.— Minneapolis Journal. THE FREDOM OF: INITIATIVE Two objections to government ownership of the transportation lines, indeed to government owner- ship generally, whether engaged in the public service or operated for private advantage, are re- duced: efficiency and the discouragement of indi- vidual initiative. There are others, such as in- creased cost, the menace of political influence, etc., but these two are enough'to create doubt and hesi- tation as the transfer from public to private own- ership is contemplated. i : Reduced efficiency is a perfectly natural attend- ant of the elimination of the inducement of profit. In the case of public ownership there is compara- tively little to inspire extraordinary effort, td be- get enterprise, to induce the expenditure of energy and time beyond the limit fxed by official regula- tion. Advancement and romotion are largely political favors and there is little to induce the ef- ficient to demonstrate their capacity. But the most serious result to be expected from the substitution of government ownership for pri- vate is the doing away with individual initiative We lay a lot of stress in these days: upon freedom of thought and freedom of speech and privileges of that character.
