No doubt the Y. M. C. A. will in time announce its plans though it must suffer in popular esteem by every day of delay. The drive for funds for the relief of the Christians in Syria and Armenia was, we think, a tempting opportunity for a magnanimous donation on the part of the Y. M. C. A., but that organization thought otherwise. This newspaper naturally is not going to question the wisdom of the men who have the destinies of the Y. M. C. A. in charge. They probably had what appeared to them good and sufficient reasons why they should not give a few of their burdensome millions to the Christians in Asia Minor.

Our only hope is that the "Y" is not planning some elaborate educational campaign to make better men out of the soldiers still in France and those who have returned to the United States. Better men, it will be admitted, are always in demand, and the supply can never equal the demand.
