MAKES ELOQUENT
APPEAL FOR WAR
RELIEF SUPPORT
Judge Buffington and Other
Speakers Tell of Splendid
Work; SI2,(XX) Raised
Judge Joseph Buffington, of the
United States Circuit Court at Pitts
burgh, was tho guest of honor ut a
conference dinner given at tho Har
risburg Club last night In the Interest
of the national campaign for the
maintenance of tho Y. M. C. A. head
quarters In tho United States mili
tary camps.
This eloquent jurist has been giv
ing weeks to a tour of the state in
the interest of this great movement.
He has the matter very much at
heart and his address last night was
the most earnest and eloquent appeal
for a worthy cause that was ever
heard in this city. Those who were
present counted it a privilege to have
had presented so clearly and force
fully the motives and purposes in
volved in the present world war. His
defense of the American attitude in
view of Prussian militarism was so
strong as to arouse in all present a
determination to do everything pos
sble to tit the Amercan soldier for
service In the field. During the after
noon Judge Buffington also addressed
the Civic .Club and as a result of
these two meetings almost $12,000
was subscribed for the maintenance
of the Y. M. C. A. camps.
Points Out Mcnate
W. T. Hildrup presided at the din
ner and asked John Fo* Weiss to
present Judge Bufflngton, which he
did in a graceful little speech. In
his discussion of the subject the
guest of honor referred to his ex
periences in Germany and his study
of the German character. Ho was
persuaded then that tne conflict was
bound to come and he felt certain
our own country would be Involved.
He didn't mince words in pointing
out the menace to the United States
and deplored the failure to prepare
for the struggle that is now ahead.
He insisted that the only way the
Prussian system could be wiped out
was through the road to Berlin; that
there must bo no halfway measures
and no temporary peace. He was
out of patience with the pacifists of
the United States, who had lulled the
people into a false security.
Tells of Border Work
The Rev. Harry Is'. Bassler, chap
lain of the Eighth Regiment of the
National Guard, followed Judge Buf
tington in an earnest appeal for the
soldiers in the service. He told of
the work of the Y. M. C. A. on the
Mexican border and described the
temptations and needs of the boys
of the army away from the restraints
of home and the comfort and care
to which they had been accustomed.
He spoke plainly of the need of
something more than food, clothing
and shelter, out made it clear that
the government does not provide for
more than these. He paid a tribute
to the Eighth Regiment and to the
clean lives of the boys who had gone
to the border from this section of
Pennsylvania. "They went away
clean," said he, "and they came back
clean." Chairman Ainey, of the Pub
lic Service Commission, Bishop Dar
lington, Vance C. McCormick, E. J.
Stackpole, J. B. Carruthers and
others discussed the movement.
Judge Bufflngton in his opening re
marks dwelt upon the tine spirit of
patriotism which pervades Pennsylva
nia and which he had discovered in
his tour of the state. He deplored
the constant abuse to which the
commonwealth had been subjected
and referred to its fine part in the
history of the country.
Women Raise 50,400
There was a capacity audience at
the Civic Club house yesterday after
noon to hear Judge Bufflngton tell
of the great need of the Y. M. C. A.
work among the soldiers and how
much women can do for these men
in foreign camps. Mrs. William Hen
derson, president of the Civic Club,
presided; Mrs. Charles H. Bergner
was appointed secretary, and Mrs.
Philip T. Meredith treasure, Follow
the talk Mrs. Henry McCormick
urged the need of Harrisburg assum
ing the talk Ms. Henry McCormick
the work and Mrs. James I. Cham
berlin asked for specified contri
butions. In the shortest possible
time over $5,400 was subscribed by
the women.

sisted by members of tht club. The

than the 1,500 schoolchildren did
when they received their tags and
boxes. Many of them could not wait
for this morning to begin but started
last evening and worked until late at
night.
100,000 Tags Out
This morning hundreds of "kid

THREE RESIGN FROM
SCHOOL BOARD
[Continued From' First Page.]
June 15, the next regular meeting
of the board.
Who the successor will be. has not
been discussed, members Said to
day. Several names have been men
tioned, it was intimated, but even
these would not be divulged, al
though Mr. Bretz admitted he had
approached one man.
Up to the time that Mr. Stamm
presented his resignation only rou
tine business had been transacted,
including action on committee re
ports. Then Secretary D. D. Ham
melbaugh called the directors' atten
tion to two proposed contracts sub
mitted by V. T. Ritter and C. How
ard Lloyd, 'two of the architects
named for the high school planning.
These were referred to the finance
committee. '
President Stamm took the floor
after this was decided, and called
Vice-President Werner to the chair,
at the same time handing his resig
nation to Secretary Hammelbaugh,
requesting him to read it.
When Secretary Hammelbaugh fin
ished reading the resignation, Mr.
Stamm asked its acceptance and that
Mr. Werner be named as his succes
sor. Director Bacon moved to ac
cept the resignation, Mr. Boyer sec
onded, and the motion carried.
This was the first move that de
stroyed the composure of Directors
8011, Boyer, Bretz and Werner. That
the action was entirely a surprise to
them was evident. The next step
made the situation worse for the four
men. when Mr. Stamm handed a slip
of paper to Secretary Hammelbaugh,
who read the resignation of Dr.
Yates. No specific reason was given,
but it is understood that he took this
step because of the architect row.
After a short, silent wait, Director
801 l with a glance at Directors Boyer
and Bretz, moved acceptance of Dr.
Yates' resignation. Mr. Boyer sec
onded and the motion carried.

Mr. Boyer then nominated Vice-
President Werner for the presidency;
Mr. Bretz moved nominations close.

agreed to.
Another brief pause followed and
Directors 8011, Boyer, Bretz and
Werner anxiously waited when Mr.

President Werner.
Mr. Bacon's motion to adjourn was
seconded by Mr. Bretz and was voted
through.
Mr. Stomm's Statement
Mr. Stamm's statement follows:
"Harrisburg, Pa., June 1, 1917.
"To the Board of School Directors
of the City of Harrisburg:
"Gentlemen. —I hereby resign the
office of president of the Board of
School Directors of the City of Har
risburg. My reasons, briefly stated,
are these —
"As the official head of the Board
its president is generally, and per
haps properly, looked upon as the
exponent of its policies and the rep
resentative of its accomplishments,
ajid he assumes a corresponding re-
( sponsibility. In my judgment the
recent action of a majority of this
Board in selecting four achitects to
design five units of what is actually
a single educational plant must in
evitably result in a waste of the pub
lic money, in architectural mediocri
ty, in buildings indifferently adapted
to their proposed uses, and, worst
of all, in the denial to the boys and
girls of Harrisburg of much of su
perior educational opportunity and
advantage that it was intended they
should have, and that It is their right
to have. The whole proposition in
volved in that action is to my mind
so absurd, so harmful and so hope
less, that I am unwilling to take, or
to even appear to take, any further
responsibility for the proposed
building program.
"Further, the Board as now or-
I ganized has divided, and I have no
doubt hopelessly divided, into two
views as to most of the principles,
policies and ideals that should con
trol in the management and devel
opment of the school system, I
being in the minority group.
Under such circumstances it is
obvious that a minority presi
dent, attempting to exercise the legi
timate functions of leadership that
attach to the office, could only have
his labor for his pain:;. He would
find himself in the Impossible posi
tion of planning, pointing, initiating
in one direction, only to And that
the majority, with different purposes
and policies, preferred to go in the
opposite direction; and he would
become merely a presiding officer, a
figurehead.
"Also, In even so inconspicuous a
legislative body as a School Board
the democratic principle of majority
rule, with its correlative of majority
responsibility, should obtain. If I
can be of any service to the schools
on the Board of Directors, I can be
of more service on the floor, with
the perfect freedom to take part in
the discussion of matters before the
Board that a presiding officer does
not have. There is nothing that a.
minority member can do in the of
fice of president that he should not
