(By j i,) Three thousand persons were killed in the flghting nt Lcipsic before Hie government troops captured the town Friday, according to statements made by three American business men Tito arrived here tonight from Lcipsic, nhich place they left Saturday night. Up to Wednesday there was strike jfitntioii in Lcipsic against the Kapp regime, then anarchy and soviet con trol until the government troops shelled the VolkshauH and labor headquarters Friday afternoon, the Americans say. There were 2000 persons In tlio building, who were shot down as they made their exit. The shells finally wot fire to the building, killing other hun dreds. There was a demonstration on March It in which thirty-six iTersoiis were killed. Then the workmen feecurcd nruis ami Mrcei ugiuing win neuvy mini an armistice was arranged Wednesday (March 17) nt noon. The armistice ran until noon on Thursday.

It is claimed that this board of assessors bill will canalize taxation as never before.

Tlio du PontN ami there nrc mieh n lot of then that It Is dinieuU for any one but .three nntlves of New Castle county to untangle the skein of their kinship seem to be the fn ry godfathers of Delaware. I know that there nrc those who may dispute this, but that Is purely n matter of politics. Take the Washington street brldce In Wilmington. At the legislative ses sion of Win an appropriation of .$300, 000 was made for Its construction. Sub. cost about $1100,000 to build It. Alfred mi i uni in uiiu oi me uridgc com missloucrs. He immediately offered to advance the additional $IOO,OOflRo that there might bo no delay in putting the project through and wait until micli time nH the Legislature should relni btirsc him. This ninttcr Is to be con sidered at the present session because of Its Immediate importance to the pretty little dynnmlte city. Tlio school code, whoso repeal is clamorously demanded, biings another du I'ont Into the spotlight. As I indicated In my dispatches of Inst weeks Dclnwarc stands about thirty-third Ih point of educational advnn- a couiprcheusivc survey of the school nvMiuii wan innur hi. jirivuie expense. Pierre du Pont, they say, cashed the expense cheeks. Adopted After Fight The New York expert who prepared the efficiency report did, perhaps, In ject a few too many metropolitan Ideas into lii.s code, but anyhow tho Legisla ture adopted it after a mighty haul light. lCducatlon is n very fine thing in the eyes of some of the Delnwnre folks, if. like salvation, it Is free'. Or, nt least, if it can be obtained nt bargain prices, like A. Mitchell Palincr'H chuck steaks. As the result of the adoption of the code there was an augmented school tnx that started u longitudinal shindy from Selbyvillc to Wilmington; only WIN miiiKton did not accept the? code, pre ferring to go ahead ou Its independent system of school management. Then Pierre du Pont announced that lie would contribute ?2,p00,000 toward the amount necessary to give the slate an A-J school nystcm if tho people would contribute) nnothcr $2,000,000. In addition, ho offered to contribute $500,000 to bo devoted exclusively to the erection of negro schools. It was a wonderful proposition. llut tho generous offer did not np peaso the popular wrath, which was still further heightened by placing the revised school system In hnnds other than those of the old local school boards. Itcpcnl Likely to Fall Now 'they nrc going to try to repeal the school code, but I nm very strongly of the opinion thnt tho reactionaries will fall down on the Job. Petitions In favor of the repeal ynrds In length nnd containing thousands of names nro to. bo presented to tho Legislature. Sussex county is regarded an leading the fight In favor of tho repeal, but Kent county Is not a whit behind In Us voclferntlous. These fncts, Jiowcvcr, do not alter my belief that the codu will continue on the statute books. Meantime suffrage ratification must wait till the roll Is called on these meas ures.

Dsgood, rector o tho Episcopal Church oMbo Mediator, Fifty-first nntf Spruco streets, was intro duced by 'the KcV. W. E. P. Hans, rector of tho ronferenco church, nnd greeted the conference on behalf of the Community Ministers' Associntlon, nn organization composed of West Phila delphia ministers. There-was n stir when Bishop Ilerry, nt this morning's session, rose to a point of pcrsonnl privilege nnd scored n sneaker nt yesterday's love feast who said "he was from Nev Jersey, nnd ndded that lie was ashamed both of (lovcrnor Edwards and of the action of tho New' Jersey Conference In up holding worldly amusements. Took Other Stands, He Holds "I presided at the Now Jersey con ference, and distinctly remember lt action on amusements. This brother spoke in ignorance. The conference took the contrary position, standing steadfastly by tho book of dNcipllnc." Several members of the local confer ence made an effort to debate the mat ter, but Bishop Berry" refused to per mit this. "I will permit no discussion of tills question," he said, brlnplng his gnvel down sharply. "I nm simply giving this information for the benefit of the conference." The Itev. Dr. Van Clove, who spoke in favor of doubling ministers' salaries as paid in 1014 if they were to bo brought up to thb prevailing living cost level, talked at length on the matter of- finances. He said that at present only a certified nccnitntnnt could un derstand nil the ramificntions of llnnn clnl reports in tho church. lie advo cated the establishment of n central board of financial control under which could be developed a simple and com prehensive system which would elimi nate duplications of effort nnd money, and keep the books of tho church in such simple fnshiou any one could under stand, Tho Rev. Dr. 1'omlinson, during the discussion of the general proposition to raise salaries, told of a college profes sor he knew who had earned $2200 n year teaching nnd gave It up to enter the ministry nt $1000. The Rev. Ben jamin' Ln Pi4di related his own experi ence In this regard. Ho said ho hod worked in n foundry before ho became a minister, and lately received an offer to go hack to his old Job nt $75 n week. Bishop Berry announced Hint the Rev. Harry T. ciders had withdrawn from the conference. Doctor Uicklcy supplemented this announcement that Mr. elders wished to enter the folds of nnothcr faith. The retirement of the Rev. Abncr F. Dottcrcr, 1-15 West School lane, nlso wns announced. The Rev. T. T. Mntchler, secretary of the Philadelphia Sabbath Associa tion, was given permission lo address the conference and urged the ministers to keep Pennsylvania the "banner state in Sunday observance." Ho clnlmcd that motion-picture interests hnd rnls ed u fund of $,"00,000 to get Sunday "movies," nnd hnd promised various concessions to church people if per mission were granted. Dr. Miller Makes Appeal Dr. Harnh T. Miller, secretary of the Allied TeacherH' Association, was per mitted to address the conference and urged the ministers to support the teachers in their efforts to get higher pay. She gave, out a questionnaire, asking the ministers to Till it In and send it to tlio Board of Education. On it they expressed themselves ns for, or ngninst, higher salaries for teachers, a ten-mill tnx, nnd a lnrgcr allotment from the state Legislature. She said thnt nt present there hns been so great n falling off in pupils at the normnl schools that In a short time there will bo no new teachers to keep the ranks full. "Why spend SIO.OOOV 000 on new school buildings," asked Dr. Miller, "when there nrc no touch ers for them?" By maintaining the celerity nnd hnr mony thnt have marked the confer ence deliberations since its opening Tuesday night, the belief wns express ed among the early arrivals today that the necessity for a meeting tomorrow might be obviated. ChurrJics Suggested Some of the newer, commodious West Philadelphia, churches have been sug gested informally for the 1020 con ference. Some of the pastors would deslgnato Arch street or a compara tively central diUrcli ns the ideal con ference sent. Reappointment of the five Incumbent district superintendents is forecast. Earlier rumors thnt the Rev. Dr. ! Charles W. Straw has been marked for removnl have been dissipated, retty polities, unjust in its reference to Doc lor Straw, is said to have inspired tlio report. The work of the North district, which is Doctor Straw's charge, showed it to be one of the most nctive in tho conference, botli in membership gnlu and in increased benevolences. A movement is on foot, although likely to nwnit action at n Inter confer ence, to pay the trnvcllng and enter tainment expenses of dclegntes out of conference funds. This plan has been adopted by other conferences with sat isfactory results, it is said, and the condition of Philadelphia Conference financially is believed lo warrant its employment here. Bishop Berry's announcement of pul pit assignments fir the coming church year will bo made at the close of the business sessions. This list may be made public late today. Whiln this matter is one customarily i kept a secret until the moment of its reading, report was current today that the number of transfers among tho 350 pastors would not exceed ninety, n fairly small quota. Many churches in the conference have , Afiimatnrf return fit ifiMr nnntorn. ftev eral announcing fmfnry increases, and it is expected the presiding bisiiop anu bis cabinet will yield to these applica tions. , , , Few important charges appear likely to be effected, save through death or pastoral request. The Hev. W. It.

The conference tract society a4 board of Sunday schools hold anniver saries tonight. Dr. H. V. Sloan will address the former. An address by Dr. Edgar Blake, of Chicago, is the prin cipal feature of the latter program. The choir of tho Erie Avenue Church will furnish tho singing at the Sunday school celebration.

PHILADELPHIA SCHOOL OF FILING 910 Chestnut Street DcPt. 10 Telephone Filbert 4436 Owned and managed by 'Library Bureau lunch, Advice to Shoe Buyers PRESENT prices on shoes are unpopular with the public, although Philadelphia shoe prices are con siderably below the market and lower than in other cities. Reputable retailers exercise no control over these prices and are deeply interested in securing shoes -to sell at prices their patrons would like to pay. But frankly there is no hope of this under present conditions ; yet if the public will co-operate with shoe retailers, shoe bills can be materially reduced ; your own bills may be cut in half this year. Our advice to shoe buyers is FIRST: Buy shoes with the thought in mind of the service for which you require them. This means heavier soles in most cases. Turn soles, wafer-like shoes, wood heels, etc., are all right for their purpose dress wear but their place is notion the street, and when so worn are expensive and extrava gant; not only wasting good upper leather, but keep ex pert shoemakers busy without the proper return in serv ice for their labor. SECOND: Bring your shoes to us for repairs promptly, that is, before the sole and heel are so worn down as to impair the foundation of the shoe. Through the recent enlargement of our repair department of the Market, St. store we have inaugurated the most modern system of repairing in the country. Shoes come through like new. We will be glad to further instruct our customers about the care and' conservation of their shoes, but by following even this simple advice you can not only save money now, but greatly help the market situation by assisting to create a surplus of leather and the natural result of a surplus is lower prices. Those who need shoes and will buy them because of necessity, not demanding particular styles or colors, can get them today at very moderate prices.

Then a committee of representa tive women selected the best of these home -baked loaves. Expert bakers then copied die crisp brown crust, the firm even texture, the delicious home-made taste of those home-made loaves. The new loaf wus called Bond Bread because the purity of every ingredient is guaranteed by the Bond of the Kolb Bakery Company. f is chubby cheeks tell you he's a Bond Bread baby His cheeks are like round, rosy apples his muscles firm his bones straight and strong. Hours of healthy play plenty of sleep and lots of Bond Bread these are his three secrets of health. Bond Bread is good food for children because it is patterned after the best home-made bread. The purity of every ingredient ia guaranteed by the Bond of the Kolb Bakery Company. Bond Bread is sn named because each loaf bears this bond of the Kolb Bakery Company. r5 ey,A, g m f&rtrtttirt- sfffl&Hft m xssuljw mjw m m mr .SHmrKaNmf . VV I .- lll.
