EAGERLY AWAITED [Continued From First Page] the President would not be rushed into war, it was plain that all officials realized that the much featured overt act might come at any time. Flat rejection by the T'nited States of Germany's proposal to discuss inter national differences without lirst halt inpr the illegal submarine campaign left one other suggestion of the Ber lin government still pending at the State Department to-day. That was to reaffirm the Prussian-American treaties of 1799 and 1828, relating mainly to treatment of enemy resi dents In war times, with a number of new provisions which apparently would constitute almost a new treaty. It seemed quite probable that this proposal, the same as that submitted to Ambassador Gerard at Berlin after he had asked for his passports and which he declined to consider, will be frowned upon also. Both offers were submitted to the State Department through the Swiss minister, acting on behalf of Germany. To Ask Release of Prisoners A report probably will be made soon through the same channel that no German merchant ships have been seized in American ports and 110 Ger man sailors have been imprisoned. The government then will look for im mediate release of the seventy-two American sailors captured from Brit ish ships in the Atlantic by a German raider and now held prisoners in Ger many. The State Department was notified yesterday that they were still held, pending receipt of information on the German crews of this country. President Wilson had under consid eration to-day the question whether Hie Navy Department shall furnish gun* to arm American merchant ships, as it is understood the State Depart ment has recommended. Treats Break as ot "Grave Importance" El Paso. Tex.. Fell. 13. The break in diplomatic relations between the United States and Germany is treated as a matter of grave import ance to Mexico by "El Pueblo." a Car l-anza organ of Mexico City, in copies that reached here to-day. In an edi torial the director of the paper, Heri l>erto Baron, asks the Mexicans to re strain their feelings and maintain out ward calm, as he says popular demon strations might involve the govern ment. After referring to the friendly rela tions that Mexico has cultivated both with the Central Powers, to which Carranza sent a minister plenipoten tiary, and with the United States, the writer goes on to say: "Under Carranza's direction our re public has succeeded in the facl of the European conflagration in pre serving the strictest neutrality, and we should help our government to not imperil the interests of our be loved country. We are ignorant of the complications for Mexico that may result from this hurricane." Bitterly Attacks Brazilian Minister For U-Boat Note Rio Janeiro, Feb. 13. —Deputy Medei ros bitterly attacks Dr. Lauro Mtiller, the Brazilian foreign secretary, in an article in A Noite, in connection with the Brazilian note to Germany, which he terms a terrible dece.ption. According to Senor Medeiros the praise given the note in tlie French press is merely a manifestation of politeness. The arti cle continues: "Dr. Lauro Muller ought not to ig nore the terrible suspicion which sur rounds Ijim on account of his origin and his political interests. The actual note did not dissipate this nightmare and now when Dr. Muller discovers in it a decisive energy he is only reinforcing the belief that it Is impossible for him to do anything against Germany. Alluding to the possible candidacy of the foreign secretary for the presi dency, Senor Medeiros says: "When Dr. Muller will have proven that in spite of the appeals of his ancestry he can dissipate the suspicion which sur round him he will have won so great a victory over himself that nobody will dare to dispute his right to aspire to the highest post in the republic, of which he will be then absolutely wor thy. Acts are now indispensable, not words. The note is at this moment a document without definite value. To morrow it will be excellent or detest able according to the acts which follow it." TO BUILD STORM SEWERS Council this morning passed an or dinance providing for building storm water sewers In the following streets: Beaver, from Twenty-first to Ruby; Ruby from Beaver to Berryhill; Berry hill from Ruby to Twenty-first; Twenty-first from Beaver to Center; Center, from Twenty-first to a point 100 feet east of Twenty-first street.

BRITISH THROW 3-MILE GIRDLE AROUND TURKS Forces Along Tigris West of Kut-El-Amara Completely Hemmed In While the military activities along tlio Franco-Belgian front, where the British are lighting their way toward Bnpaume. have slackened somewhat, there has been an Increase in the im portance of the operations in several of the other war areas. From the Tigris front in Asia there I comes the official report of an impor tant British success. The British have established a line more than three miles long across the bend of the Tigris west of Kut-El-Amara. the op eration resulting in the Turks there being completely hemmed in, it is de clared. In Macedonia the Teutonic forces have taken the offensive in the Monas tir region. To-day's German army headquarters statement announces the capture of an entente hill position east of Paralovo, in the bend of the Cerna. and several camps In the rear of this point. Nearly 100 Italians were taken prisoner and five machine guns were captured. On the Russian front the Austro- German forces have repulsed Russian attacks along the Sereth in Galicla, and further south along the Moldavian frontier of Rumania a Russian point of support near Vale Putna was cap tured by the Germans. Now Norwegian Ship Sunk Another vessel has been added to the list of victims of the German sub marine blockade, the Norwegian mo tor vessel West, presumably a new merchant ship of unknown tonnage, as she is not listed in the latest ship ping records available. SPROUL RESOLUTION IS HOTLY DEBATED [Continued From First I'a go] The House then took up the debate on the resolution as a whole. When the resolution came up Mr. Sarig, Berks, promptly introduced a series of amendments providing the same plan of investigation by a com mission which was ruled out as un constitutional in the Senate last Mon day. Mr. Sarig is the Democratic floor leader, and the proposed amendments were drafted by the Democratic legis lative committee. Most of the Sena tors and many spectators were present when the measure came up. Mr. Sarig addressed the House at length on his amendments, saying the Democrats believed they would meet all objections made to the original plan by the Governor and others as unfair. "I want to call the bluff about this resolution for investigation. If the two Republican factions want a fair investigation as they claim they do, let them vote for these amendments," said he. "We have spent enough time on this resolution. The people back home want the fact that are behind all this fuss." Mr. Sarig said the peo ple are tired of the petty politics being played and that they want an investi gation that will be thorough. Irrespective of what the Governor or anyone else wants, said Mr. Beyer, of Philadelphia, the proposition of the Democrats is out of order because, he held, the Legislature cannot dele gate powers of investigation to any other body. Mr. Walton, Franklin, objected that Mr. Beyer was debating a point of order he had raised against the amendment, but was not sustained. If it Is true that the legislature cannot have men not legislators as the members of their committees to con sider bills it cannot confer its powers of investigation to "outsiders," argued Mr. Beyer. Every branch of constitu tional inquiry must remain where the people placed it. Mr. Goodwin, of Venango, followed Mr. Beyer's constitutional argument, holding that the Legislature ca¬ exercise executive or judicial power, nor can it divest itself of any powers conferred upon it by the basic law. Mr. York, made answer for the Democrats to the points of uncon stitutionality, holding that the Legis lature had delegated power to investi gate "mine caves" to men not assem blymen. The same was done for in vestigation of feeble minded, the chestnut tree blight. Are insurance practices and other subjects, said he. TVie point of order, he contended, was an attempt to block the efforts of the minority. Mr. Beyer held that the commis sions cited by Mr. Laucks were for purely ministerial work and not along the lines proposed by the "probe" commission resolution. Speaker Baldwin sustained Mr. Beyer's point against the amendment and Mr. Sarig appealed. Mr. Ram sey, Delaware, was called to the chair. The chair was sustained, 148 to 44. Seven Democrats voted to sustain and 17 Republicans, and others not to sustain. Effort to Report Earlier Mr. Walter. Franklin, seconded by Mr. Williams, Tioga, offered an amendment to have the commission to investigation report by May 1 in stead of Juno 1. Mr. Walton contend ed that if the commission did not re port until June it would mean a leg islative session prolonged Into July. The idea of the probe, he said, is to get increased economy and efficiency and to extend its time would drag out the session. Mr. Williams cited the Capital investigation commission as ono which did not conclude before the Legislature adjourned. Mr. Williams said In the case of the Capital commission an extension of time was granted, and it should be ar ranged that the Legislature should not be delayed by this probe. Those who are urging the resolution, he said, had not taken the House into their confi dence. Mr. Beyer in reply said it would be better for the people to have the legislature sit longer this year and he strengly resented the imputation that th legislators were idlers. Mr. Beyer said a limitation of the time to report would be to close the doors on a prop er investigation. A Simple Way to Remove Dandruff There is one sure way that has never failed to remove dandruff at once, and that Is to dissolve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, just get about four ounces of plain, common liquid arvon from any drug store (this is all you will need), apply It at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in genly with the finger tips. By morning, most if not all. of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will complete ly dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign'and trace of It, no matter how much dandruff you may have. You will find all itching and digging of the scalp will stop instantly, and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better.

Where Are the Workers? Ask Red Cross Officials The Red Cross membership cam paign is not producing the results ex pected. Speaking of the response by the people of Harrisburg to the call for members and volunteer workers, Mrs. J. I. Chamberlain, 323 North Front street, said to-day: "No criticism can be directed against Harrisburg Red Cross activities with its present membership. This chap ter s doing more than holding its own with others in this State as regards work done and aid rendered. But our great drawback is a lack of members. Harrisburg has nearly 80,000 people and the local Red Cross chapter should have an enrollment of not less than 1,200. A little while ago we had not quite 120 active members." Mrs. Chamberlain added: "May 1 not say to all the people of Harrisburg 'Join with us in this work and join now ?' *' Mrs. Ezra W. Frantz Dies at Home in California Mrs. Ezra W.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS CELEBRATE LINCOLN DAY What Would YOU Like- Some News About? EDITORS and reporters —just like other (oiks—arc prone to become humdrum. Practically every newspaper prints or attempts to print just about the same kind of news—fires, murders, politics, social events, the stock markets, sports, the war, national, state and municipal activities, and so on. All these things arc of great importance and have their place or they would have been dropped long ago by progressive journals. But doubtless there are many things which seem interest ing to you that you never see anything in the newspapers about! The Harrisburg Telegraph—bigger and better as it is going to be—is anxious to be more than a mere, niooney news ma chine. It wants to get away from the old humdrum, paperish, reporterish idea of the world as seen bv the average newspaper. It aims to satisfy the ideas of its thousands of readers. What would YOU like some ne<vs about? iSit down to-night, make a list of the things you want the newspaper columns to tell about not now found, and send them to the City Editor of the Telegraph.

He said he had pre sented his bill on January 23 and that "through trickery and treachery" his bill had been "stolen" and introduced by some one else. He asked the members if they would countenance such practices and introduced a motion to send the bill to the Judiciary General Committee. During his remarks on the motion he said that he had gone to the chair man of the committee (Mr. Stein) in charge and alleged that when he had urged action he had been told that the bill would not come out until "Jim McNichol gave his O K." Mr. Dunn said the bill was too grave a matter to be Involved in Philadelphia factional politics.' Mr. Stein changed Mr. Dunn's motion to recommit a move for delay which was antagonistic to his own argument. The House agreed to recommit the bill.

In the childless home the married pair, though sometimes more or less unconscious of the fact, grow disap pointed and lonely.

"The motor car buyer is also wary of any car that he has reason to think may soon become an orphan—that, is, a car that may cease to be manufac tured.
