WILSON WIRES RED CROSS OF HIS WAR PLAN Tells Local Branch of Ar rangements Being Made to Alleviate Suffering Calling upon the people of Harris burg to contribute through the Red cross to the alleviation of the suffer ing and distress "which must in evitably arise out of this tight for and democracy," President Wilson to-day, in a telegram to the Harrisburg Chapter, told of his creating within the Red Cross a war council to which will be entrusted the direction of relief work. President Wilson's telegram fol lows: "I have to-day created within the Red Cross a war council to which will be entrusted the duty of re sponding to the extraordinary de mands which the present war will make upon the service of the Red Cross, both in the field and in civil and relief. The best way in which to impart the greatest efficiency and energy to the relief work which this war will entail will be to concentrate it in the hands of a single ex perienced organization which has been recognized by law and by in ternational convention as the public instrumentality for such purposes. Indeed such a concentration of ad ministrative action in this matter scents to me absolutely necessary, and I hereby earnestly call upon all those who can contribute either great sums or small to the alleviation of the suffering and distress which must inevitably arise out of this tight for humanity and democracy to con tribute to the Red Cross. It will be. one of the first and most necessary tasks of the new war council of the Red Cross to raise great sums of money for the support of the work to l>e done and done upon a great scale. I hope that the response to their efforts will be a demonstration of the generosity of America, and power of genuine practical sym pathy among our people that will demand the admiration of the whoie world." The head of the new war council is Henry P. Davison, of J. P. Morgan and Company, who said in accept ing the post that all the vast facili ties of the Morgan firm would stand behind the American Red Cross for the duration of the war. Former President Taft. chairman. of the Red Cross Central Committee, will serve with the council, whose other members are Charles D. Nor ton. Cornelius N. Bliss, Jr., and G. M.iP. Murphy, of New York: Edward N. Hurley, of Chicago, and Elliot Wadsworth, of Boston. Headquarter of the council will be in Washington, but a branch office will be established in New.

HEALTH OFFICER PLANS CLEANUP Arranging For Removal of Winter's Accumulation of Ashes Jmd Refuse City health authorities to-morrow will complete pluus for the annual | spring cleanup which starts Mon day. Samuel Gardner, of the Pennsyl vania Keduction Company, and Com missioner S. F. Dunkle met yester day afternoon with the health bu reau to start arrangements for the removal of all ashes and refuse which accumulated during the win ter. Owing to the. failure to maintain regular schedules during the win ter all clean-up records are expect ed to be broken. While no resular schedule has been worked out. Dr. J. M. J. Raunick, city health offi cer, said this morning It will hardly be possible to make two trips over the entire city from May 14 to 28.

The week of May 21 will be di vided up for collections in the cen tral and West Knd districts.

Owners of vacant lots will be or dered to have the rubbish cjeared away, and residents in the city are advised by the health officers to have all refuse and ashes which are to be removed in receptacles that are not too large to be conveniently handled by one man.

Joffre Honored With Decoration Worn by French in Revolution Newburgh, N. Y., Mmy 11.—In the headquarters in which George Wash ington wrote the order which dis banded the Continental army in 1783 after the war for American inde pendence had been fought and won. General Joffre, marshal of France, to-day paid tribute to the first presi dent. Accompanied by other military members of the French war commis sion, the man who saved France arrived in this city, which was found ed by Germans, to be the guest of New York State. After the cere monies the marshal went to West Point. • The marshal was received into the hearts of thousands of citizens and school.children. From the depot his party went to the Hasbrouck House, the name of Washington's head quarters and there speeches were made by Joffre, Governor Whitman and Supreme Court Justice Pendle ton, of New York, grandson of the author of the Star Spangled Banner. To Marshal Joffre was presented the eagle and the Society of the Cin cinnati, founded here 134 years ago yesterday, by the officers of the army of the American revolution, all the French officers serving with them being also made members of the order. The eagle conferred on Mar shal Joffre is an exact duplicate of that worn by Washington, Rocliam beau and Lafayette.

Wright, general manager of the Wilkes-Barre Railway Company, said to-day that unless some offset to the hfgh cost of maintenance is at once found the company will be forced into bankruptcy. He declared this condition applies to every trolley sys tem in the State. Wright said steps must be taken to increase trolley receipts, and he intimated that an application will be made to the Public Service Commis sion by his company, and probably all other companies of the State, for the right to increase the revenues. He stated that a six-cent fare may be a necessity to keep the lines in operation, but he favors this as the last step. He favors the withdrawal of the sale of all car tickets, charg ing a two-cent rate for all transfers issued. If these plans fall to balance the expenditures he would then ask for a six-cent carfare. Wright declares that in tho last twenty years labor has increased 100 per cent., fuel 300 per cent, and supplies 300 per cent. In the same period, he points out, the nickel car rate has been in force. JOHN GIIYGR GETS U. S. JOB John Guyer, for many years con nected with newspapers in New York.
