That millions of British soldiers are held In England while France fights the battle. That English distillers and brew ers have unlimited quantities ot grain at their disposal while Amer ica stints. That American soldiers are vic tims of drunkenness In London and In France. That Japan is fundamentally un friendly toward the United States. That American soldiers are being used to further debauchery 'n Europe. That Red Cross nurses are re turned to this country as a result of excesses. And hundreds of similar lies.

One of the sto ries Introduced, circulated and Invent ed by German propagandists has been to the effect that 200 nurses from the Red Cross hospitals in France have been secretly returned to this country and placed In maternity hospitals, The Committee on Public Information i denies the whole fabric of the tale and complished through the thorough dls etamps It Indelibly ns German work cipllne and seamanship of the ship's "behind the lines." The story was in- company, vestlgated by a grand jury in New . York and it was indisputably disproved. German sympathizers caught circulating the rumor have been Interned. The story was Invented with a view to re tarding the work of the mercy organi zation. Drunkenness among our soldiers abroad is another fabrication of a pro German imagination To indicate the scope or' the effort to displace confi dence in the moral stamina and stripe of our men in the war, it Is shown that the cry was even taken up by prohibi tion leaders in the country and by.ed-1 ltors or many religious papers, who circulated appeals to readers asking them to protest to he President. The number of protests accurately gauged the effect of the propaganda. All suet allegations are false. Forged letters pretending to h, been written by someone ln France have been found In the lobbies of theatres. ' They wera usually devoted to lies abqut the slaughter iter of American regiments. I Stories that American soldiers are de voting themselves to drink abouf'the streets of London are false.

Within a month every one who pledged a monthly contribution to the War Chest vill receive a coupon book containing coupons for each month, starting with July 1 On the first of each month the subscriber will take the coupon book to any bank or trust company In Philadel phia Tho bank will credit the payment to the War Chest through Drexel & Co, the treasurer, and hold the money until the treasurer draws It for one of the beneficiaries. The War Welfare Council issues a particular plea that the subscribers take the monthly payments to the bank in stead of sending It to Drexel & Co. If the money Is sent through the malls. It will be necessary for Drexel & Co. to end a receipt for each payment. If every one of the subscribers mailed his monthly contribution, the cost to the War Chest would be about $6000 each month. Furthermore, the labor ot forty clerks and accountants would be re quired each month It Is therefore urged by the war welfare council that the s-ubscribers take their monthly contri bution to any bank or trust company and make the iyment with the coupon book. This applies only to Philadelphia. The counties will collect their own Those who hae subscribed through their places of employment will make payments on the flrt of each month to the person designated by the employer or elected by the employes to receive and collect War Chest money. The orig inal subscription cards will be kept by the person so designated, who will record dn the cards al payments made. A coupon book to be used ln remitting payments on account of the total sub scriptions will be forwarded to the per son authorized to make collections.
