HARRISBURG flffftftll TELEGRAPH DRY NATION IS PREDICTED Ministers Foresee National Prohibition as Econom ical Step Hundreds of churchgoers in Har risburg were stirred profoundly on Sunday with patriotic addresses by nearly every preacher in the city. One of the most enthusiastic was held in Grace Methodist Church when the pastor, the Rev. Dr. Rob ert Bagnell, delivered a forceful ser mon and the congregation adopted resolutions asking that Congress pass the President's selective conscription bill and that the President and Con gress enact national prohibition as a war measure. See Prohibition "The war will bring national pro hibition of the liquor traffic and many other national reforms," de clared the Rev. Dr. H. R. Bender, new pastor of the Rtdge Avenue Methodist Church, in his patriotic address on "The Present War." Dr. Bagnell spoke on "Doing Our Bit" and in his forceful way warned the people against expecting too early a peace. He said "It will be necessary for every one to do his or her bit. as it is not likely that the war will end before a year from next Fall, and victory will require every ounce of power on .the part of the allies." The only way in which an earlier peace might be likely would be for the allies to be content be fore they finish their worV. in the destruction of militaristic oligarchy, and evpn if Russia and the United States would consent to a comprom ise, England and France would not. The only other way to an earlier peace would be through a revolution in.Germany and if that should occur, the allies would speedily reach an understanding with a Democratic Germany. The Germans are a splen did people and not any of the allies desire to humiliate them." Dr. Bagnell reminded the congre gation of the very complete organi zation and control of the German people by the Hohenzollern auto cracy and said a revolution would be very difficult. One of his force ful remarks were: "No one can Imagine the self-willed, egotistical Kaiser and the rattled-brained, tire eating Crown Prince excepting the humilating terms the allies would offer, or of the allies being able to trust them if they did. It would be another case of Napoleon at Elba." Piglit to the Finish In finishing Dr. Bagnell said "therefore, it will be a tight to the finish and every man, woman and child must do their bit." At the close of this powerful ser mon. Arthur D. Bacon presented several resolutions, and moved that they be adopted. Dr. Bagnell put the resolutions and called for a stand ing vote and they were unanimously adopted. The pastor then announced-: the appointment of the following live men a committee to carry out the instructions of the resolutions: Arthur D. Bacon, chairman; Harry C. Ross. J. Horace McFarland, Dr. J. W. Ellenberger and Charles H. Kinter. The resolutions presented by Mr. Bacon follow: Adopt Resolutions ' "Whereas —Even the im imniense resources of grain and food products of our country will be taxed to the extreme limit to provide the necessary supplies for our own army and navy, and to see that our allies are fully provisioned. "Whereas—A very great per cent, of the grain of the country, some authorities say 12 per cent, is used in the manufacture of intoxicating drinks. "Therefore — "Resolved, That we earnestly request the President of the United States and Congress as sembled, to enact national pro hibition as a war measure in the interest of the conservation of our food supply. "Resolved, Also that we earn estly urge the Governor and legislature of Pennsylvania, to take like steps for our- great Commonwealth, that we may be among the leaders of prohibition in this great movement. "Resolved, That a copy of this be sent to the President, Sen ators and Congressmen of Penn sylvania and the Governor, Sen ator and Representatives of the Commonwealth and the press of the city. "Whereas—There is now pen ding in Congress of the United States a bill providing for re stricted universal conscription. "Resolved, That we earnestly urge upon Congress the passage of the bill for the following among other reasons: 1. "it will distribute the quota of men for the army and navy over the whole country and through all classes of society in an equitable manner. This could not result from the volunteer system. 2. "It will scientificaly select men for the front and for various duties at home. The volunteer system takes many men to the front who could serve best at home. 3. "It will provide for an in ventory of men as well as means in a scientific manner, thus pre venting the universal wastage of the volunteer system. 4. "And finally it will serve notice to Prussia and the auto cracy that America with all that she has of men and women and resources are thrown into/ the battle for freedom. t "Resolved, That copies be sent to the President, to our Senators and Representatives in Congress and to the press of this city." Dr. Bender declared that "the kings and rulers set themselves in an attitude of hostility against each other and against the people. They took counsel together, not only against each other, but also against Christian civilization: against inter national law; against treaties of peace, against mercy and justice, against the Lord and His Anointed." "This is not a war of races, nor of religions, nor of labor against cap ital: nor of socialism against an aristocracy of wealth, but it began as a war of kings against kings and has developed into a war of an oligarchy against democracy, or a war of mili tary power against all that makes a Christian civilization. To show the sentiment that has been created In Germany he quoted from a sermon preached by the Rev. Fritz Phillips, of Berlin, in which he said, "Humanity must be redeemed by blood, by fire, and by the sword. German warriors do not willingly shed the blood of other nations, but they do it as a sacred duty, which they dare not neglect without com mitting sin. Germany's divine mis sion Is to crucify humanity. It is the duty of Germany's soldiers to strike blows of merciless violence. Satan himself, who has come to the world In the shape of a great power. (England), must be crushed." He also quoted from a sermon preached by the Rev. Dr. Lobel, pas- tor of the principal Lutheran Church ' in Leipslg. as "Germany stands for Christianity; her enemies are the enemies of true religion. It is this knowledge that enables us to rejoice and be glad, with hearts lull of thankfulness, when our engines of war, in the air, strike down the sons of Satan, and when our won derful submarines send thousands of the unelect to the bottom of the sea. We must tight the wicked by all possible means; their sufferings must please us; their cries of an guish must fall on deuf German ears; there can be no compromise with the forces of hell; no pity for the slaves of Satan. In other words, no quarter for the English, French and Kussiuns, and all other peoples who have lent themselves to the devil." He declared that the nations at last see that Germany has wanted as many nations as possible to re main neutral until England be crush ed, and then she hopes to crush the other nations at her will. "This war is uncovering the sore spots in our body politic. Our social club life, our beer gardens, the saloon and similar vices have sapped the virtues of an enduring manhood. The Kvar will bring national prohibition of the liquor traffic, and many other na tional blessings much quicker than could have been accomplished had it not come upon us."
