ASHAMED OF
GERMAN NAME
Publisher and Editor Doesn't
Want His Sons
Disgraced
Philadelphia, July 26.—Because he
believes that the atrocious crimes of
the German armies and the impeni
tence of the German nation for sub
marine iniquities will make a Ger
man name obnoxious in this country
for years to come, George W. Ochs,
former publisher of the Public Led
ger and r.ow connected with the New
York Times Publishing Company,
has asked the courts in this city to
change his name to George W. Ochs
Oakes.
Mr. Ochs avers that he was chris
tened George Washington Ochs. He
is a native-born American of parents
who came to this country when min
ors. The petititioner is the father of
two sons, 8 and 4 years old, whose
mother was the daughter of a na
tive-born American father, and hence
Why Nine People Out of Ten Have
Acid Stomach and Indigestion
Acids in Stomach that Sour and Ferment Your Food
Should be Neutralized With a Little Magnesia to
End Indigestion.
"While there are many forms of
stomach trouble," says a physician
who has made a special study of
stomach disorders. "I believe that
fully 90 per cent of these cases are
traceable to the excessive secre
tion of hydro-chloric acid in the
stomach with consequent food fer
mentation, gas and delayed diges
tion."
The stomach needs a certain
amount of acid for proper diges
tion, but many people have an un
natural tendency to secrete more
acid than their stomach requires.
This excess acid makes all the
trouble.
Their stomachs are almost con
stantly In a state of sourness and
ferment, extremely irritating and
Inflaming to the stomach lining
and most everything they eat dis
agrees and turns to gas. No won
der we have so much so-called in
digestion and dyspepsia.
An "acid stomach" should be neu
tralized or sweetened daily with

"The name 'Ochs' says the petl-i
tlon, which was filed on Mr. Ochs'
behalf by Howard Benton Lewis, an
attorney, "is purely Germanic In ori
gin and spelling. The change that
your petitioner requests Is not a
change In name, because the pro
nunciation of 'Ochs' is often Amer

'Oakes' and he merely asks that he
be permitted to add to his name a

English orthography."

Only 23,891 Needed For
Army War Strength
Washington, July 26.—Under stim

regular army showed a decided In
crease yesterday, bringing in 2,29 4

from. That makes the total obtain

23,891 to be obtained to bring the
regulars to war strength.

like bisurated magnesia which, in
stead of merely artificially digesting
the acid food, as do so many pep
sin pills and digestive aids, coun
teracts or changes the acid, soothes
and heals the sore inflamed stom

digestion without pain or trouble of
any kind.
I say bisurated magnesia because
I regard this as the best form In
whicn magnesia can be used for
stomach purposes. A few ounces
of the powder or a small package
of 5-grain tablets can be obtained
at G. A. Gorgas or any drug store
and will convert almost any stom

all digestive aids and relying en
tirely on bisurated magnesia to
keep his stomach free from danger

indigestion. Bisurated Magnesia is
not a laxative and may be freely
taken either before or after meals.
DENOUNCES PRICE
OF FOODSTUFFS
Chairman of Safety Commit
tee Declares Something
Is Wrong
Philadelphia, July 26.—"Either our
present system of retail distribution
Is grossly extravagant and Inefficient
or else prices are being manipulated
and upheld by artificial means,"
George Wharton Pepper declared yes
terday. Mr. Pepper, who is chairman
of the State Committee of Public
Safety, made tnis declaration In a
statemen' he Issued yesterday. He
urged prompt passage of the Food
Control act now before Congress.
Mr. Pepper said the National Com
mittee of Patriotic and Defense So
cieties was investigating reports from
the eastern shore of Maryland, where,
according to information received in
Washington, thousands of bushels of
potatoes were left to rot In the
ground at the order of the speculators
who refused to market yiem at low
ered prices. The same condition, it is
said, was found to exist in parts of
Virginia.
Mr. Pepper also made It apparent
the State Committee 1b watching local
dealers closely and w4ll act promptly
where evidence of manipulation is
obtained.
The statement was supplementary
to one issued in Washington recently,
on behalf of the National Committee
of Patriotic and Defense Societies, of
which Mr. Pepper is a memher.
Pepper's Statement
It reads:
"It is evident to everybody that
the production of foodstuffs has
largely increased, and that there is
beginning to be a marked decrease
In food waste. We have been looking,
therefore, for a fall in prices, but
far without material result.
"The National Committee of Patri
otic and Defense Societies, co-operat
ing with Mr. Hoover's organization,
is desirous of encouraging local study
of the price of foodstuffs of all sorts
in order that unreasonable price
fixing may be detected, wherever it
exists, and when detected, that pub
licity be given to it.
"In Pennsylvania this matter is
being studied by Mr. Heinz, director
of the Department of Food Supply,
who is in close touch with the Penn
sylvania State authorities. I prefer
to make no statement regarding his
field, as he knOws the situation far
better than I do.
"Of one thing the public is cer
tain: the cost of bread, potatoes and
other garden and orchard products
to the consumer continues extremely
high, notwithstanding the largely in
creased supplies and the lower prices
now prevailing to the farmers. Either
our present system of retail distribu
tion is grossly extravagant and In
efficient, or else prices are being ma
nipulated and upheld by artificial
means.
"Reforms and changes In methods
of shortening the route between the
producer and consumer and improve
ments in methods by retail middle
men are talked of, but it Is very evi
dent that, notwithstanding the large
ly increased production from farm
and garden, we are in for another fall
and winter of exorbitantly high prices
for foodstuffs, unless the Food Con
trol act, now before Congress, is
-promptly passed and made operative."

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
Letters F rom the Front
—■
Harrisburg Boy Amid Bursting Shells in
France Tells of His Experiences in
Fighting Zone.
[The TELEGRAPH prints below
another most interesting letter from
Franklin Etter, son of Mr. and Mrs.
George E. Etter, of Pine street, now
on the firing line in France, -who Is
serving with an ambulance section.]
Somewhere In France
Le 25 June, 1917.
Dear Family:— !
Well, since my last letter, I have
made quite a change. 1 am now in
active service! Of course, I can't tell
you my exact location, but it's
enough to say that I am right at the
front now in the Verdun sector.
It certainly is a relief to get some
where and know you are going to do
something, after having loafed I
around in Paris and the training I
camp. , ,
As yet I haven't heard a single
word from any of you and am ter
ribly anxious to know what is going
on at home. I suppose, however, it
is because the mail is so irregular
and it takes such a long time to get
over here. However, I wish you would
write often, all of you.
As I said in my last letter, I was
sent from Paris to a training camp
70 kilometers (about 45 miles) from
Paris. Stayed there for over a week,
but due to some misunderstanding
and the large crowds that came over
on the following boats, we couldn't
get our cars to train on. Each fellow
got about ten minutes a day on an
old Berllet car. But I learned a lot
and was able to take the car out in
the evenings.
The whole Princeton section was
with me and I was made third In
command. 1.e., I had charge of fif
teen fellows. We all expected to be
given French cars and replace a
French ambulance section.
Because of my position I was al
lowed to take the car Into Meaux to
get provisions for the camp. It is a
quaint old town of about 20,000, with
narrow streets, little shops, an old
cathedral and very old bridges, with
houses and mills on them, across the
Marne. It was very interesting and I
am glad I got the chance to see it.
Besides practicing on cars, we
were instructed in French drill,
which is almost the same as Ameri
can drill, except, of course, the com
mands.
One dav the lieutenant announced
that the leader of Section 9 had ask
ed for me to be sent out to his sec
tion. Gil Glorleux is in that section
and had recommended me. He also
announced that there were three va
cancies in Section 2. Both of these
are old sections, Section 2 being the
first at the front when the war was
started. He gasp us all driving tests
and said I drove excellently. As a
matter of fact I did pick up a lot in
the last two weeks.
Hen Sherrerd and a dandy boy
from Maine, Steve Dresser, also pass
ed. So we three, out of 27, were rec
ommended. I had the choice of going
to Section 9 or 2. I took Section 2
because Hen and Steve could go
along. _
So now I have left the Princeton
section and am with Section 2 at the
front. I think it is a big advantage
to be with an old section, because
everything is well regulated and go
ing well, and because it has a good
reputation and esprit de corps. Be
sides, the latest was that the Prince
ton section was to split up.
Last Thursday we left for Paris
and stayed a day before we were sent
to Section 2. We had lots of shopping
to do, so were busy all the time.
There is so much that you need, that
you are always buying things.
■ Saturday morning we left for the
front and are now about 150 miles
from Paris. We hopped in a first
class compartment, a beautifully fur-
ALLIES TO ENTER
GERMANY BY AIR
United States to Do Its Part
in Carrying Out the
Great Program
Washington, July 26.—Berlin will
be entered by the air route, and the
United States Is stacking up Its re
sources behind the allies to furnish
enough machines to make the con
quest possible.
This was the declaration of Brig
adier General George O. Squier, com
mander of the signal corps.
"Tarn not here to make public our
plans or to indulge In prophetic fig
ures," said General Squior. "The
closest estimate I can give about our
aeroplane plans is about this: The
determination of the allied govern
ments Is to enter Germany by the
air route, and the United States gov
ernment is going to provide enough
machines to make itself felt In put
ting this program through.
"This is not saying that we will
construct 22,000 airplanes or 1,000,-
000, or ten or a dozen. If I knew how
many machines we would construct
or could construct In a year, I
wouldn't tell, because this would be
telling Von Hlndenburg, and he'd
thank us for the Information."
Big Crowds at Annual
Catholic Outing Today
Hundreds of members of Catholic
churches of this city and vicinity at
tended the annual outing under the
direction of the Knights of Colum

events was held to-day.
' The schedule of the day's events
was: Morning, Indoor baseball

were also on the program.
AMERICAN SHIP SIINK
By Associated Press
LONDON, July 26.—The American
sailing vessel Augustus Welt was
sunk last Saturday. The crew was
saved. No details of the sinking have
been received. The Augustus Welt
was a wooden vesseel of 1.221 tons. She
was owned by A. R. Reed, of Waldo
boro, Maine. Its port of registry was
nlshed affair, and had a very pleas
ant ride. We met some fine French
officers, and as one of them could
speak English we had quite a conver
sation and got lots of information.
Uusually we had to ride third class
and sometimes with Poilus, which
was also very Interesting.
The closer we got to the front tho
more signs of war we saw. You can
only realize what war is and what it
means, and the huge expenses, losses
In men and material, and the terrific
strain, when you see it for yourself.
I wish I could tell you more about it
but I can't now.
The French arfe all very pleasant
peopte and we have great times try
ing to talk to them. I am beginning
to understand it a little, but make
mighty poor attempts at speaking it.
But by the time I get home I hope
to be able to do something with it.
We arrived early In the evening at
our destination and were very soon
introduced to the rest of the section.
All of them are mighty fine fellows
and the officers are wonders. One of
them is the son of one of the richest
men in France.
The food is wonderful. Our chef
used to be the chef at the Grand
Hotel In Paris, so you can Imagine
that what we get is good. In fact, we
live better here than at Princeton.
To-day we were ordered to move
from the post we were stationed at
to a post nearer the front. So we
each packed our stuff Into our cars
and got ready to leave. We started
out in three sections of seven cars
each, led by the staff car and follow
ed by the trucks and kitchen. So I
drove the car about 15 miles across
the country to our new post without
an accident.
Here we ar© now situated In a little
hamlet about five miles from the
front. We are living in a couple of
stone houses filled full of shell holes
and only parts of roofs!
Before we started we were given
steel helmets and gas. masks, which
they say we will need often. On the
drive we p&ssed through three or
four towns all knocked to pieces by
shells. Nothing left but a few walls.
Every three or four minutes we
see an aeroplane buzzing above us,
and sometimes six at a time. The
antiaircraft guns are always plug
ging away at them, but seldom get
any. I haven't seen .an air battle as
yet, but hope to before I leave. The
guns are always booming and the
place we are stopping at is shelled
occasionally. At night they send up
star shells to light up the ground
to prevent surprise attacks.
To-night we are going to sleep In
our cars. We put two boxes about five
feet apart, then put a stretcher on
them and pile blankets on the
stretchers. It makes a fairly comfor
table bed. but when you think how
many poor wounded and dead Poilus
have lain on it, it gives you the
shivers.
Just now it Is rather quiet, so we
haven't much to do. but when there
is a battle we have to work twenty
four hours at a stretch.
This morning I fixed up my quar
ters. I got hold of an old door, put
four props under It, put sides on It,
folded my blankets on it and so I
got a bed. I made a shelf out of a
board and two leather straps, tacked
my mirror up, stuck In a few nails
and I had a completely furnished
apartment. All the other fellows did
the same.
When shells come we have an
"abri" or dugout, which we dive into
and wait until the bombardment is
over. You are almost absolutely safe
there.
Don't forget to write soon and give
me all the news.
Lots of love to all,
I FRANKLIN.
GREECE TO TAKE
PART IN THE WAR
Premier Declares Country's
Soldiers Are Fighting
For Balkans
By Associated Press
Athens (Tuesday), July 24.—0n the
eve of the assembling of Parliament,
Premier Venizelos received o corre
spondent of The Associated Press
and made the following statement:
"The reassembling of Parliament,
which was dismissed by the arbitrary
action of Constantine, is the formal
resumption of democratic government
and the rule of the people in line with
the ideals and principles of whicn
the United States gives a conspicuous
example. No longer have we a royal
autocrat ruling by the divine right
of kings and not responsible to the
people, but rather a constitutional
monarchy in which authority is exor
cised within strict limits.
"We look to tho United States for
continuance of powerful support in
working out our own destinies. Greece
is now aligned with the entente allies.
Relations with the central powers
have been broken and a state of war
now actually exists, as Greek troops
are fighting against the central pow
ers in Macedonia. A formal declara
tion of war was made by the provl.
slonal government and It is unneces
sary to renew it.
"The increase of the Greek army
and co-operation with Serbia will re
store the Balkan forces to their
proper role of defenders of the integ
rity of the Balkans. France and the
other protecting powers are leaving
us a free hand and all the allies rec
ognize Greece's position as a sov
ereign and independent nation."

Five-cent Loaf Plan of
U. S. When New Food
Bill Passes Finally
Washington, July 26. The first
move to be made by the food ad
ministration following the enact
mnt of the pending food control
legislation will be the assurance of
a universal five-cent loaf in the
United States.
From all parts of the country evi
dence has come to the food admin
istration, It is stated, that the five
cent loaf Is entirely practicable with
wheat at even $1.50 or $2 to the
farmer. The claim has been made
that even with wheat at $2.25 to the
farmer the five-cent loaf is possible,
although the margin, It is admitted,
in that case is too narrow to be
counted upon.
The elimination of bread returns
from retail stores to city bakeries,
while affecting conservation of the
wheat supplies, has not thus far
brought any material advantages in
lower prices to the consumer. In
many cases, it is pointed out by com
petent authorities, small local bak
eries are selling bread at a profit,
cheaper than the great city bakeries,
which have the advantages of both
quantity purchasing and quantity
production.
No action can be taken to compel
these larger bakeries to reduce their
prices until the pending bill is pass
ed, it is pointed out. While officials
of the food administration decline to
comment on the situation while the
bill Is In conference, it is known they
hope the bill as finally passed will
include the Lever licensing provis
ions, by means of which they expect
to proceed against inequitable bread
prices.
Heir to British Earldom
Lost in United States
London, July 26.—Francis Clem
ents, son and heir of the late Earl of
Leitrim, has been officially declared
dead by the probate court. He dis
appeared from London in 1907, tak
ing passage as a stoker on a vessel
bound for New York, but a ten years'
search by detectives on two conti
nents has failed to reveal any trace
of what became of him after he
reached New York. "I decided that
if I stuck to London drawing rooms
my life would ferment into mere
froth," he told a fellow stoker on the
way out from Liverpool.
About a year after he disappeared
his death was reported from Kan
sas City, but after an exhaustive in
quiry this was proved a false clue.
The court's decision that Clements
is dead leaves the present Lord Leit
rim without an heir to his titles,
which include the earldom, viscounty
and barony of Leitrim and the bar
ony of Clements.
