U. W- W. LEADERS MEET ATTICA.

K. A. Shumaker .Says "Peace Must Bring Demobilization, Not Demoralization."

"The period of demobilization must not he turned into a period of demoralization that in a sense is the immense task that confronts our ovcrn:nent when arms are finally laid down and the war is over." ßueh was the import of a message brought to Unhed War Work county leaders by K. A. Shu maker, secretary of the Illinois state Y. M. C. A., at a conferenceand dinner held last nlKht at the Y. M. C A. Neatly one hundred workers braved the snow and tdeet to attend the inett.in. Mr. ishu maker, who is director of the United War Work Campaign in the central district comprising fourteen states declared lurther that the hi opportunity for tho welfare work, t he done by the seven organizations concerned in the U. W. W. drive, is not now. "It Is when peace is declared," said Mr. Shumaker. "and don't permit these crys of peace and armistice to delude the people of your county into not ivin until it feels good. Why, what is e,oin to h ippen if the arms of these seven oranizations are shortened by some shortsighted persons who refuse to ive because they think their boys will be home by Christmas?" Continuin-:, Mr. Shumaker told of the need of at least a fifty percent. oer-stihscription because of the fact that the budgets for the seven agencies had been made last Apni and May when th overnment plan called for only one million men in France by November 1st. With over two million men there now the need for more money to cairy on the wonderful work is apparent. The Htuh nts Army Trainin Corps, now operating in more t han two hundred colleges in this central district, were authorized after the budgets were planned and is another arfrument in favor of an immense oversubscription. Mr. Shumaker talked at .-eat h nth about the work of the seen organizations both in the camps and merseas and urged every worker to l-o forth dirin the campaign dates Nov. 11 to is, and brine the nature of the United War Work Campaign before every home In the countf. Coanty Chairman Horton., D. L. C.uilfoyle. treasurer, and others conmeted with the county oraniij.tion were presented and spoke briefly. H. J. Martin, county campaign manager, announced a meeting of pastors from the various churches in this' county to be held Tuesday afternoon at 4 o'clock at the Y. M. C. A. Sermons in all of the county churches will also le held this Sunday and Nov. lv, if the influenza ban is raised.
