WORKERS ARE CONFIDENT Two days of campaigning for the T. M. C. A. -war fund in Allegheny county has netted At the luncheon yesterday in Kaufmann's auditorium the various teams reported an even J300.00 for their labors Monday afternoon and evening and yesterday morning.

At the conclusion of the reading of the team reports yesterday, it was found the total was about J100 under 300.000 mark. "I will make up the difference," said William G. Costin. secretary of the -ampalgn committee. While the progress of the campaign far has been satisfactory to the men Sirecting It, there is no disposition upon Aelr part to be over-confident.

At the nd of yesterday's labors Allegheny had maintained only the average that must Be kept up. if this district is to give U.600.000. Telegrams from various points indicated that the allotted quotas in most places are being oversubscribed. Cleveland, which has always been considered a rival of Pittsburgh in such matters, raised Its original quota of $1,000,000 the flrst day. That city has agreed to double the amount and will give the fund C.O00.00O.

GROVE CITY GIVES $5,000. urove City, wntcn IS in the Pittsburgh area, was asked to raise I1.00O. It raised i COCO the first day. Similar enthusiastic reports are coming from practically all Joints In the Pittsburgh area. B.

F. Jones. presided at the luncheon yesterday. The guests included Mrs. James VT.

Gerard. Mrs. John Ma gee, secretary of the women's national committee, which is co-operating with the T. M. C.

A. war council: Mrs. Robert Strawbridge of Philadelphia, also a member of this national committee; Brigadier General W. A. "White of the British army, who is head of the British commission on recruiting itv-the Cnited States: K.

E. Childers. British in Pittsburgh, and Mrs. William Adam Brown of the national board. Y.

A Another guest was T. W. Whitehead. Cornell, 1909. who has been working as a secretary for the T.

M. C. A. In France since the war started. Mr.

Whitehead, who has just completed a tour of all the army camps in the United States, said in his talk to the earn worker: "I want to tell you that your lads in are homesick, but despite this they told me everywhere to tell the folks back home that they were not home until the snow is over. That means thit t'ney are willing to endure all the hardships and if neces-- sary give up the lives to bring victory to our cause. You people in Pittsburgh should be proud of this opportunity to 4o the very utmost for the T. M. C.

A. because your Fred Shipp, a Pittsburgh-er. is carrying the burden of the Y. M. C.

A. work in France. When this campaign is over I think you should send a cable to Shipp telling him that this district has gone away over its quota. HUTS VALUABLE ASSiT. General White in a brief talk to the workers, said that when he entered the war in 1914, he knew practically nothing about the Y.

M. C. A. and its work. New he says the soldiers, need this Y.

M. C. A. badly at all points along the front. General White said: "The Y.

M. A. started to show its wonderful work when we began operations along the Somroe. I am here telling the people of the United States that these Y. M.

C. A. huts are the most valuable saet that any army can have. "It ia no exaggeration to say that life in the trenches is hell. Briefly, this Ufa la merelv mud and monotony.

If you peopte could know what it means to these men who have been in the trenches perhaps for three or four days and nights, to come back into the warm Y. C. A. huts and get a hot bath, clean clothes, good food, good com pany and all the facilities that the association wrovides for the men, you would double or triple the amount of money that you intend to give. Trv to keep in mind that this Y.

C. A. work is not only saving men's lives, but it is saving their intellect. When vou go out to ask for subscrip tions do not forget to mention the fact that over there these men are giving their lives while we at home are only asked to give our money." Mrs. Brown told the, workers that she had just returned from a tour of the Southern training camps and everywhere she had found the Y.

M. C. A. doing remarkable work. She made an especial plea for co-operation between the Y.

M. C. A. and Y. W.

C. A. The men's association, she said, was doing varything possible for the men In the camps. The women's association, Mrs. Brown said, is building hostess houses outside the cantonments.

"We want to keep our men human for the women they love." said Mrs. Brown. VT'TP GIRLS AWAY. American officers at all camps. Mrs.

Brown said, are relying on the women's association to keep young girls out of the maps and to exert a steadying influence upon ail girls whoee homes are close to these camps. For this work. Mrs. Brown said, and for the furnishing of interpreters for the foreign speaking visitors to the camp, the women's association needs $2,000,000. This aura is being raised aVong with tho T.

Tech, Margaret MorrUon and I Pennsylvania College ror women, bed cnlsmis Will Be Used to Cut Gauze. Send Telegram to Italy. Because of the unusual demands for surgical dressings due to the terrific fighting in Italy and along the Flanders front, Pittsburgh Chapter, American Red. Cross, has found it necessary to install a second cutting machine in its workshop in the Chamber of Commerce building. Chairman G.

Cook Kimball of the supply service department is notifying all tho auxiliaries in Allegheny county that the machine has been set up and that the chapter is now ready to supply a greater volume of cut goods. It is probable, in view of the urgent need for surgical dressings and hospital supplies, that new machine will be used exclusively to cut gauze. This will leave the other machine free to cut garments. Word was received yesterday at chap ter headquarters that the war council of the American Red Cross has sent the following cablegram to American Am bassador Thomas Nelson Page, in Italy: ''Please advise the government and people of Italv that the American Red Cross is organising and operating commission to proceed to Italy to estab lish permanent headquarters there, and to take at once, in co-operation with the Italian government. every practical step to alleviate suffering; and espe cially to extend to the soldiers and civilian population of Italy such assur ance and comfort as may be possible, To that end and acting upon the recommendation of our recently returned commission to Italy, an appropriation has been made to develop an ambulance service and to operate such civilian relief as it may be feasible to extend In the immediate future.

Please advise the government and people of Italy that it is the desire of the American Red Cross that nothing which can be done shall be left undone to assure the people of Italy, in their present sacrifice and heroism, of the cordial and contnuea support in every possible way uf the American people." Urban Universities To Hold Convention A reception will be held in the art galleries of Carnegie Institute tonight in honor of the delegates to the fourth annual meeting of the Association of Urban Universities. the reception the association will hold Its first session. Charles A. O'Brien, city solicitor, will welcome the delegates in behalf of the City of Pittsburgh. Dr.

Charles W. Dabrkey, president of the University or Cincinnati, will make the response. Chancellor Samuel Black McCormick of the University of Pittsburgh. John W. Beatty director of the department of fine arts of the Carnegie Institute, and Dr.

William M. Davidson superintendent of the Pittsburgh public schools, will speak. The association will hold three sessions tomorrow, besides a luncheon at the University Club. The meeting will close with a noon luncheon in the Hotel Schenley Saturday, at which Dr. Jeremiah W.

Jenks of New York University will speak. War Service Union Commission Is Urged The Knoxville war service union yesterday sent a night letter to President Wilson recommending the creation of a commission to further a movement to co-ordinate the individual efforts of a municipality inrto one representative union with power to act for iljs citi zens as a whole. Loyal citizena of Knoxville recently organized themselves into a representative systematized organization known as the Knoxviiie War Service Union, to support, maintain and defend the principles and policies of the President for the prosecution of the war to a victorious conclusion.

DIVIDING MEN IN CLASSES No copies of the new draft questionnaire, by which registered men not yet called into the military service are to listed in five classes of liability for service, having reached any of the local draft boards in Allegheny county yesterday, officials of these boards made no move to put the new plan in operation. It was pointed out by several chairmen, there is no great rush, as work on the questionnaire does not start untli December li.

At present all local boards are engaged bn a rush order from Provost Marshal General E. II. Crowder. summarizing for the next session of Congress the results of the first draft. These summaries divide the men already called and drafted or discharged much as the new questionnaire proposes to do, and draft officials believe they are to be used by Congress as guides in amending the drart act.

Manv local boards, pressing into serv ice for the purpose school teachers and others, are preparing these summaries, which are to be sent directly to the provost marshal general. APPEALS BOARD NOT AFFECTED At the headquarters of the county draft board of appeals in the court house yesterday, T. C. Jones, secretary, said the new questionnaire will not affect the appellate board, at least in its early stages. No new instruc tions from Washington regarding the part the appeals board will play in the operation of the new plan have been received at the court house.

At the appeals board headquarters it was estimated that not more than 80,000 of 132,000 men registered in this county will come before the local boards for the first time under the new questionnaire. Not less than 50,000 men and some estimates place it higher were examined by the 41 local draft boards here, to provide the nearly 13,000 men now at army cantonments or held here ready for service when the next increments are called up. All excepting those already in service, or accepted and ready for call, local board chairmen agree, will he affected by the questionnaire, and blanks will be sent out to them, but it is believed that exemptions or discharges already granted will be disturbed in very few cases. TO HOLD NIGHT SESSIONS. The practice the appeals board adopted early in its work of making all agricultural and other industrial discharges good only until January 1, makes all such discharges automatically expire the first of the year, when the men must renew their claims.

Organization of volunteer doctors and lawyers for service at the different local boards in connection with the questionnaire is expected to begin at once. There was doubt among local board officials last night whether they will be expected to seek the volunteers or whether, as in previous steps in the draft, recommendations will come from Harrisburg. The local with their volunteer assistant's, probably will sit nights to assist registrants in filling out the forms. EXEMPTIONS ORDERED.
