Warburg Makes Plea
For European Relief
Says \ccds Can Be Met Only
hy Cooperative Kruteavor of
.ill American Organizations
Felix M. Warburg, in a Thar.V?giving
statement issued last night, expressed
his hearty approval of the cooperation -
with the European Relief Council of j
all the larger American relief organi- .
zations to meet the needs abroad. Mr.
V* arburg said :
"It is, of course, highly desirable j
that Mr. Hoover's appeal for funds for;
the children of Europe, made with the ;
aid fit The Literary Digest, meet with
every success and' go over the top.
The problem, however, confronting the'
I copie of the United States, if they
would afford to the children, ihe des-i
titu.te' and ill of Europe, any com-!
mens?rate aid, is beyond the ability :
or the resources of any one, or even j
several. American relief organizations j
at tins time.
"The effort now made, therefore, to
combine the interest in, and the pos?
sibility for achievement o? such!
organizations as the American Relief |
Administration, the Red Cross, Fed-j
eral Council of Churches >f Christ,;
the Society of Friends, Kniphts of
Columbus, V. M. C. A., the Joint Dis- !
tribution Committee and other agencies
in Europe, is one which should have
the support of all Americans.
? relief problem in Europe will be
of long duration. The child life must
he saved, and this, together with the,
questions of sanitation and medical
care constitutes a herculean task.
"The people of the United States, no
tl an the people of Europe, owe
a large deb: to Mr. Hoover for the
ous energy, the great heart and,
ifinite pains he has taken in car-;
.- - abroad the pracm;al evidence of
America's sympathy and kind-hearted?
ness. Through his broad-mindedness
it of the men unselfishly labor
ing in behalf of the Red Cross and the
other organizations, the amalgamation ,
oJ effort lias been made possible.''
Dr. Howard C. Robins, at the service
ye ?terday in St. John's Cathedral, re- '
ferred to this as a sad Thanksgiving be?
cause of the agonizing appeals that are
coming from overseas. He said he
hoped God would aid in reawakening his
and speed the day when
a would take her full part in
bringing about the union and peace of
-. .? world.
11? referred to Mr. Hoover as the ful- ',
fillment of the universal man who
would not keep his substance, but
:' tht man who would subordi?
na! plenty in one quarter to the call
I in another.
Herbert Hoover, as the exemplary :
forward looking man for Americans to;

Raymond L. Foreman's Thanksgiving;

General Nivelle gave a message of
thanks from the people of France to

Prosperous America
Owes Effort Toward
Peace, Says Pastor
Christian Nation Despite Its
Critics, Asserts Dr. Harley,
I?ut Must Join Society to
Obliterate World Strife
"At a recent meeting of the Board
of Education in this city it was said
that this is not a Christian country.
We fling this lie in their cheeks," said
the Rev. Harmon R. Harley, pastor
of the Fort George Presbyterian
Church, 174th Street and Broadway, at
which six churches of the Fort Wash?
ington district joined in a union ser?
vice yesterday. There was a record
attendance.
"This is a Christian country," con?
tinued the Rev. Mr. Harley. "Spiritu?
ally a? well as geographically, we are
founded upon a rock and for this we
have cause to be thankful to-day. At
the beginnig of the. seventeenth cen?
tury, out of the hardening shell of
Puritanism, there stepped forth a fresh
young spirit which gave promise of
great possibilities. Three hundred
years ago this week in the cabin of the
Mayflower was signed the compact
which breathes out that spirit of
?mancipation and freedom. That com?
pact began with the words, 'In the name
of Cod, amen,' an?! this was the real,
hona fide beginning of American his?
tory. 1 believe that we are true to
the ideals shown in that compact signed
on the Mayflower."
Can't Ignore Obligations
Mr. Harley said that while the nation
has reason to be grateful for the ma?
terial prosperity it enjoys and the im?
provement of the physical health of
the American people as exemplified in
official reports, this nation is to-day
confronted with national and interna?
tional obligations which it cannot ig?
nore. .
"The world is in the throes of new
international relations," said Mr. Har?
ley, "and there is reason to hope that
the civilized world will yet get to?
gether on some friendly basis a3 the
seasons follow each other. The Kaiser
tried to bring the Cid World under one
government by military force and prop?
erly failed. Bolshevism has the same
dream, but it is sure to fall also be?
cause of its negation of Almighty God,
its slur on the home as the fundamental
basis of society and its idea that the
end justifies the means."
Referring to the League of Nations
and the efforts now being made by
?epresentatives of forty-one nations at
Geneva to put it on a solid foundation,
Mr. Harley said that the United States
must join it and accord it full-hearted
cooperation.
"We must subscribe ourselves whole?
heartedly to this effort," said Mr. Har?
ley. "There is new interest for Amer?
ica in the affairs of the world. The
cynical may say that the other nation?
want us in the league for what they
can get out of us, but one might as
well say that the Puritans came tc
these shores for the rich farms and
mineral wealth of the country, which
we know is false. What the worlc
wants from America to-day is tht
spirit, of freedom, and America wil;
not fail it. What God has pr?serv?e
in America, America will yet give tc
the world."
Puritan Spirit Lives
The spirit of the Puritans gave t<
this country lives, the speaker said
and will continue to live with ever
increasing force and will facilitate
greatly the solution of the complex
political, economic and social problems
facing this country.
The churches participating in the
service were: Chelsea Methodist Epis?
copal. Fort George Presbyterian, Fort
Washington Collegiate, Fort Washing?
ton Presbyterian, Second United Pres?
byterian and Wadsworth Avenue Bap?
tist.
The pastors of nil these churchei*
assisted in the service. There was an
exceptionally beautiful music program.

Wallace ?Says Bolsheviki
Would Destroy America
U. S. Ambassador Tells French
Nation Is Monument to Every?
thing Condemned by Reds
PARIS, Nov. 25.-? Hugh C. Wallace,
the American Ambassador, speaking at
the American Club's Thanksgiving din?
ner in this city to-day, declared the
United States was a monument to every?
thing condemned by the Bolsheviki and
that they were seeking to destroy the
American republic.
He alluded feelingly to the cheerful?
ness and earnestness of the crippled
and blinded men of France, the widowed
women and orphaned children.
"All France is at work," Mr. Wallace
said, "and they work with the rest,
looking forward to the d?y when in
peace she shall enjoy her victory."
Touching upon German reparations,
the Ambassador said: "Man must pay
for his wars, not only during the
strife itself, but afterwards. He can?
not recall the lives he has taken, but
he must replace the things he has
destroyed. When he batters down a
city it is for him to rebuild it, and
when in the mad fury we know as
wi*r he has devastated smilingly fields he
must restore them. . . . Why should
not those, who devastated the fair prov?
inces of France be compelled to pay
and thus show succeeding generations
that with nations as well as with men
'As ye sow, so shall ye reap.' "

Army's "Paper Work" Cut
Changes Approved by Baker to
Save Material and Labor
WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-?Changes in
the correspondence work of the army
designed to save paper and eliminate
unnecessary labor were announced to?
day by Adjutant General Harris as hav?
ing b?en approved by Secretary Baker.
The changes, which were described as
drastic, follow the recommendations of
a hoard of officers which investigated
the "paper work" of the army.
Present army regulations require
that all communications relating to
personnel such as transfers, dis?
charges, leaves and the like, must be
transmitted through all intermediate
officers to the officer who takes final
action, and after such action is taken
must go down the long line again, in
both travels each of the officers being
required to have an indorsement pre?
pared, typewritten in triplicate, record?
ed and filed in his office. The changes
approved by Mr. Baker eliminate many
of the intermediate officers and permit
the use of stamped indorsements.
Excitement Kills Football Fan

Pastor Assails Ford
For Alleged Drive
A ?
Against the Jews
The Rev. John H. Holmes
Also Denonnees Program
of Presbyterian a to Con?
vert Rare to Christianity
The alleged anti-Semitic crusade
conducted by Henry Ford in his news?
paper, The Dearborn Independent, and
the Presbyterian Church's program to
convert Jews to Christianity were de?
nounced by the Rev. John Haynon
Holmes, pastor of the Community
Church, at Carnegie Hall yesterday.
The occasion was a union Thanksgiving
servie** participated in by the Com?
munity Church, the Free Synagogue,
Temple Israel and the West Side Uni?
tarian Church.
"Words are inadequate," said Dr.
Holmes, "to describe the indignation
and sense of outrage which all Chris?
tians should feel at the crusade now
being preached against the Jews by
Mr. Henry Ford and his Dearborn In?
dependent. It is a violation of the
' first principles of Christian brother?
hood, and on this day to be denounced
as a betrayal of all that we mean by
true Americanism.
"Scarcely less discreditable than
this open hostility and intolerance is
the condescension practiced toward
Jews by many sincere and well-inten?
tioned Christians. Here, for example,
is the campaign recently announced in
: New York by the Presbyterians for the
conversion of the Jews to Christianity.
What,, may we ask, do these Presbyte?
rians think they ?re doing in thus sug?
gesting that the Jews stand in need of
, conversion ?
"Do they mean to imply that the
: Jews in this city are to be regarded as
- pagans or have they forgotten that
Jesus was a Jew and that his gospel
! was only a peculiarly pure and noble
: expression of all that was best in pro?
phetic Israel? For myself, I sympa?
thize with my Jewish brethren in their
indignation at this campaign of conver
; sion put on foot by ardent but mis?
guided Christians.
"And may I suggest, what they per?
haps would be reluctant to suggest,
; that, if the Presbyterians have any
money for the conversion of the heathen
; which they do not know what to do
with, they use if for the conversion of
Christians to Christianity. If there is
any one thing which this sad old world
most needs to-day it is the teaching
to those who call themselves Christians
