A E. BRANDT. 1 Solicitor, HARRISBXJRG TELEGRAPH STATE MAY PAY FOR MOBILIZATION Move Under Way For Reim bursement For Time in Penna. Camp El Paso, Texas, July 20. ln view of the fact that more than. 10,000 Pennsylvanians, privates in the ranks, have now been away from their homes and all means of private Income for a period little short of a month, and in that time have received a total payment averaging only four dollars per man, it is not unlikely that within the next few days some of the higher officials will combine their influence in an effort to have the men receive the difference between the State and the FederaJ pay for the time between their call to the armories and their muster ing into the United States service. The success of such a move would mean much to many of the men here, and the company officers believe that if the State of Pennsylvania can be prevailed upon to accord what is no more than mere Justice to those of its citizens, who have committed them selves to serve their Nation in any cri sis during the next six years, it will be a great contribution to the morale of the militia, and at the same time will serve to relieve instances of real finan cial stress and privation. Serving his State, a private is en titled to $1.50 a day, but in the Fed eral Service he receives but fifty cents a day. Therefore, the men here, aside from the officers, receive only half a I dollar a day for the time between June, when they were called to their armories, and July 1, which began an | other fiscal month. Also, they will re- I ceive no other pay. unless the State feels some obligation in the matter, before the first week in August, when they will be paid for the month of July. Men, many of them w.th fam ilies at home, who have given up their positions, cut off from all means of in ! come patriotically to serve their coun try, will have received during the pay i ing, which has gone on during the last i two or three days, in no instance more | than $4.50. Feel State Should Pay Almost unanimously, and their offi j cers do not disagree with them, they I feel that the great State of Pennsylva j nia, in whose name they responded to ithe call to the colors, should pay them for the difference between the Federal i and the State rate for the period they were under mobilization within the State. Of course, that would mean a dollar a day per private for more than ten i thousand privates for a period of nine I days. But, also it would establish a | new standard of public regard for the , State and United States National . Guard, and at the same time it would | create a different and far more whole : some fueling upon the part of the | Pennsylvanians in that Guard. SEEK NAME FOR ' RIVER CARNIVAL [Continued From First Paste.] yearly water event want suggestions. Here is the committee: Thomas M. Kelker, chairman. F. H. Murray. J. Allan Donaldson. E. W. Forney. Henry Nachman. If you have an idea on the subject mail it to the committee, care of Thomas M. Kelker, chairman, office of the city department of parks, before noon, Monday, July 24. Various suggestions have already been made. That the event should be based on an Indian legend or romance in which the Susquehanna is rich: that the historic story of the attempt to torture John Harris, the trader, should be produced on a great scale in such a way as to suggest a name for the event: that an Indian name for water gather or meeting place of canoeists be adopted—these are a few of the ideas. " The general opinion prevails, how ever, that some name that will be unique should be picked; like the "Mardi Gras" of New Orleans, the "Gasparilla" celebration of Tampa; the "Veiled Prophets" of St. Louis, the "Ice Palace" of St. Paul. The Florida city's celebration is particularly signifi cant; It deals with the coming of a famous pirato. In addition to selecting the commit tee on permanent name for the big navy of canoeists, motorboacmen and* so on. President E. J. Stackpole also appointed committees on adoption of a permanent name for the organization, on membership and on floating exhi bits and co-operation of the business and commercial interests of the city. The committees will be enlarged from time to time at the discretion of each chairman. Incidentally they must all report at Monday evening's meeting of the organization. The other committees follow: On name for permanent organiza tion: Martin Keet. chairman; W. C. Lutz, George A. Snyder, W. H. With erow, Gilbert M. Oves. On membership: A. R. Michener, chairman; C. W. Wolfe, Clarence Shenk, Bion C. Welker, Ralph Seiders, A. P. Dintaman, George K. Reist, Har ry J. Berrier, Ira C. Kindler, R. H. Snyder, E. C. Ensminger, W. C. Lutz, E. E. Bortell, V. Grant Forrer, Charles D. Snyder, L. H. Butler, Edward Wil liams, Ray Steward, John C. Carey, G. M. Oves. Floating exhibits and commercial co-operation: W. H. Johnston, chair man; C. B. Langletz, A. J. Simms, H. Paul Shultz, Samuel Kasky, R. G. Kirk, Charles Dintaman. Federal Intervention in Garment Strike Asked Washington, July 20. President Wilson to-day received a request from Henry Morgenthau, former ambassa dor to Turkey, Cleveland H. Dodge, A. Barton Hepburn and several other New York men asking that the Fed eral Government intervene in the cloakmakers' strike which has been in progress in ,New York City for twelve weeks. The petition was made on the ground that the strike threatened the supply of women's clothing for the whole nation. Mayor Mitchel, of New York, is expected to write to Presi dent Wilson to-day endorsing the ac tion of the businessmen. The President probably will forward the request to the Department of Labor with instructions that the Bureau of Conciliation make efforts to end the strike.

RAUNICK FOR WASHING STREETS Endorses Telegraph's Sugges-' tion For Flushing Highways With Hose Streams Flushing of the city's paved streets ■with hose or plug streams during the warm weather as advocated by the Telegraph was heartily endorsed to day by Dr. J. M. J. Raunick, chief of the Bureau of Health and Sanitation. City Commissioner Harry F. Bow man, superintendent of public safety, who is head of the Water Department as well as tha executive top of the Health Bureau, added his word of ap proval, too. "As the Telegraph so ably said," de clared Dr. Raunick, "the cleanliness of the streets is not only an asset in an esthetic way, but it is a big boost in keeping up tho good health standards of th© city. JULY 20, 1916. the news dispatches that towns are Insisting on the us eof plenty of water to eliminate tho chances of germ pro duction. This is especially true, I'm told, in such communities which are fighting Infantile paralysis. '"lhe flushing at necessary periods of the city streets, however, is a move that has been urged by your city health officer In his annual reports for the last few years. To my mind, the lines of hose should be put into service at stated times, preferably at night after traffic ceases.

Commissioner Bowman said he fa vored the scheme when the continued dry spells warranted it. "Of late, however, the rains have flushed the storm sewers and have washed the streets pretty well," said he, "and as long as Mother Nature looks after our streets well enough I hardly see the necessity of getting out the hose or turning on the plug streams. When the rains no longpr help, however, then I shall be glad to co-operate in this matter with Commissioner Lynch, of the City Bureau of Highways, whenever he sees fit." 5
