12 ACT ON DAUPHIN COUNTY CLAIMS Applicants From Third Dis trict Passed On; Major ity Turned Down The District Appeal Board at its session to-day acted on a large num ber of claims from Dauphin county No. 3 and York county No. 3 boards. Of these cases the majority were dis allowed although more than the usual number were granted. There were 25 claims from Dau phin county acted on. Of this num ber two stated that they were physi cally unfit to run a farm without the services of the young men who had been drafted. The other twen ty-three stated that while they could run the farm themselves the pres ence of the young men were greatly needed and that the young man was doing his bit for his country while tilling the soil and furnishing food for the men who were at. camp. Other Districts Ijitcr Yesterday the district board acted on a large number of claims froln Northumberland and York No. 2. These claims were allowed at the rate of one out of ten. It is probable that the board Will be in session to morrow, although late to-day it was not certain. The board has consid erable work to clean up and intends to act on all the claims that remain. There are also a large number of ap peals to be acted on and these will take some time. Dauphin county No. 3 will be the only local board to have its claims acted on at this session. However the other two dis tricts will have their claims on the table at the next session which will take place next week. The Steelton board examined two this morning. These men had been summoned to appear some time ago but owing to being away were un able to appear until to-day. Tills board is anxiously waiting for the district board to certify back the men ■who have had their claims denied. If the next contingent is called with in a short time it is certain that the negroes from Steelton will have to make up the full quota. There are very few white men examined and j passed by the Steelton board that have not gone to Camp Meade al- j ready- What few remain have their | claims before the district board. If , the board certifies til6m back shortly | the Steelton district will be in good j shape to meet the demand of draft j headquarters. At the headquarters of the Pax tang board work is practically at a standstill. No more men are being examined and.it is probable that no | more will be until the district board j is heard from. The clerks at the I Taxtang board are making out a list of those men who have been dis charged or whose claims for exemp tion have been allowed. The Kilzabethville exemption board will receive from tho district board to-day tli" list of the men whose claims have been denied and allowed by the-d'strict board. No more men will he examined b>' this board as the quota is practically assured. Extra Stamp Must Be Attached to All Letters After Nov. 1 \ftr>r November 1 all letters and t'rst-class mril going out of the Har |!lmrg district will cost an extra ion i for an ounce or fraction of an otuve under the new war tax. Post masttrs throughout the entire coun tiy have received instructions from the Post Ofllre Department that after November 1 the new rate of postage j will he three cents for an ounce or 1 loss on all first-class mall except droii letters. Detailed instructions for putting into effect the new postal provisions were received by the local postal authorities last night. The drop letters referred to will continue to be carried at the same rate. In explaining this. Frank C. Sites, postmaster, said: "The section' covering this class of mail provides that all tirst-class matter deposited in I the central post office, the substations or in the mail boxes for delivery inside the city limits will be carried at the present rate. "Any liters st nt to places outside the city limits will cost a cent extra. Post cards (private mailing cards) bearing written messages must have two cents postage prepaid on them. 'I ho one-cent postal cards must have an extra one-cent stamp affixed to them in addition to the one-cent stamp impressed on such cards."

Seven Passengers Daily Keeps Railroad Running New York, October 9.—Seven pas sengers per day, an ofTiclal ruling announced in C&rmel yesterday holds, is sufficient to wurrant keep ing a railroad in operation. At least the New York Central Railroad, which sought to discon tinue the Mahopac Falls Railroad in Putnam county on the ground that it serves only this flimsy patronage, had its request refused by the up- State Public Service Commission.

LACK OF CARS; PEACHES SPOII Blames Railroads For Heavj Losses; Fruit Is Rotting in New York State New York, Oct. 9.—One thousand carloads of peaches, representmv; one-ninth of the entire crop of the state's celebrated peach belt—a nine ty mile strip from Wayne to Niagara counties —are rotting in the orchard:- because the peach growers cannoi get the cars to take their fruit to market. This represents a money loss to the farmers of SGOO.OOO (they get S6OO a carload; consumers pay as high as 5 cents a peach) and the loss comes at a time when the national food administration is pleading with housewives to be good Americans and help win the war by canning all the fruit and vegetables they can net their hands on and by exercising other household economies. "They a.-e talking to women about saving little things," said Samuel Fraser of Geneseo, chairman of the executive committee of the West err. New York Horticultural Society, "and are neglecting the big things, thus losing hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of food In our peach crop alone." Blames Railroads "The peach growers of this state,"' J Sir. Fraser continued, "have done tho best t>"y could, but they have fallen down on account of the railroads, which have failed to furnish the cars to transport our crops. It is all wrong and the city folks ought to know our side of the story." Mr. Fraser cited one instance of I car shortage where 150 carloads of I peaches were carted to the railroad I at Barker, N. Y., and the shippers were able to get but four cars to carry away that fruit. He said he knew of one man who on Friday and Saturday of last week lost $3,000 worth of peaches.

By HERMAN L. COLLINS (Girard) [THE PHILADELPHIA TET.ECRAPH] If I don't buy a Liberty Bond will happen? You may bo taxed double or treble to pay the Kaiser. Is this a ioke? It is not a joke, but a fact based upon historic precedents. How is it a fact? If America does not win this war Germany Will. If Germany wins the war what will the Kaiser do? He will do precisely as his grandfather did in 1871 after he had defeated France. What did old Kaiser William do to France? He made a cash profit of over 100 per cent, out of that war. Anything else? Yes, the old Kaiser stole from France two valuable provinces, which we would call 3tates in America. How much were those provinces of Alsace and Lorraine worth? More than a billion dollars. V.'hat then was the Kaiser's total profit on the war of 1870? Over 100 percent in cash and 200 percent more in real estate. How did he get 100 percent profit in cash? That war cost Germany, as its own official report shows, about 5480,000,000, and the indemnity collected from France was $1,000,000,000. So the Kaiser paid for his war and had left over $500,000,000 cash? Exactly! ' And the stolen provinces? They were worth more than double Germany's cost of war, or over 200 per _'ciit. on the military investment. How much has the present war cost Germany? All told over $25,000,000,000 to date. If Germany won the war from America in another vear how much would the total cost to Germany be? At. least $35,000,000,000. If the living Kaiser did to his enemies what his grandfather did to France, how much indemnity will he collect from them? Over $70,000,000 in cash and as much more in real estate. What would America's share of this cash indemnity be? As the United States is the richest of the Kaiser's foes he could and would impose the greatest portion on us. How much? He could not very well use our real estate, so he would undoubtedly take it all out in money. I low much money? Not less than $30,000,000,000. By what means would he collect this money? By the same method tlie old Kaiser used against France. What was that method? Kept an army in France until the very last dollar was paid. How long a time did the old Kaiser give the people of France to pay that billion dollar war tax? Only three years. BUT IF I DON'T BUY A LIBERTY BOND AND HELP WIN THIS WAR. AND GERMANY DOES SOLDIER-BROTHERS ARE ENLISTING SERGEANT H. B. BCHIFFMAN. CORPORAL IRA L SCHIFFMAN The big recruiting campaign which Is being waged In Harrlsburg and Dauphin county to free Harrlsburg from the next draft is rapidly gain ing momentum, und the results are gratifying. By noon to-day three young men had signified their intention of en listing. and were awaiting the sum mons to go to camp. The young men were: Wallace M. Helnmn, Rutherford; Jacob 15. Updegraff, Royalton, and Albert A. Pelfer, 142 8 North Third street. The first two enlisted In the cavalry and will be sent to Columbus, 0., while Pelfer enlisted In the Twenty-fifth Engi neers' Corps and will leave shortly for Fort Slocum, N. Y. This number was increased this afternoon, too a Week Practically all the organizations In Harrlsburg are Interested in tho campaign and every effort Is being mad to get the number' of recruits ud to tho required number of 400 a week. It 1h tho plan of the local re cruiting oftlco to leave the >ouug-men WIN IT, HOW COULD GERMANY REACH ME PERSONALLY AND FORCE ME TO PAY? Through the United States government. How would the United States government raise $30,000,000,000 of indemnity to pay the Kaiser? As France raised ft—by taxes and bond issues. Would our country be forced to pay it? It would. Would I ever get any of that money back? Never one cent of it. Would no part of that $30,000,000,000 ever come back to the United States. Never one dollar. HOW THEN DOES BUYING A LIBERTY BOND DIFFER FROM BUYING A BOND TO I'AY GER MANY OR PAYING A TAX TO GERMANY. When you buy a Liberty Bond you do not give your money to Uncle Sam. You merely lend it to him and you can get it back—all of it —any hour of any day you wish. What is a war indemnity like? It is like the purse stolen from you by a pickpocket. So if 1 don't buy a Liberty Bond, which is simply lending my money to my country to win the war, the German pickpocket will take fully double as much and never give it buck? That is absolutely correct. Is it better then to put my savings in a Liberty Bond rather than to run the risk of losing these savings and as much more? It is far better. Please illustrate. It costs you nothing to invest in a bond because Uncle Sam will pay you 4 percent- for your cash and give you all your money back any time you want it. BUT AN INDEMNITY TO GERMANY WOULD BE A 100 PERCENT LOSS. WITHOUT HOPE OF RECOVERY. How will Germany levy an indemnity if it wins the war? By blockading all our ports and seizing cities as the United States seized Vera Cruz. Would that bring us to our knees? It would. Be cause a blockade would cost us more than the in demnity. Even a self-imposed embargo laid by Presi dent Thomas Jefferson cost the United States almost as much as the subsequent war of 1812. A Liberty Bond fights for America. An indemnity would pay for Germany's victory over us. A Liberty Bond adds to our safety. An indemnity bond would ensure Germany's victory over us. A Liberty Bond feeds and arms an American soldier. An indemnity bond would pay for the gun and food of a German soldier. A'Liberty Bond means upholding the glories of our Union handed down to us by Washington and Lin coln. An indemnity bond would fasten upon the world an everlasting reign of Prussian tyranny from which the ancestors of millions of Americans were once forced to flee in terror. Take your choice! Lend your dollars temporarily to the United States. Or give them outright to the Kaiser of Germany. who enlist at home for a nerlod of time. It Is tlioilglit that the Influ ence that the presence of these yovng men, who will bear some \ mark of identification, showing that they have enlisted, will have In thelr vurlous communities, will encourge many to enlist. This plan has been t r led by many othor recruiting of lloes with good results. Lieutenant U. W. Lesher and Ser vant John K. li.ake, who are In ( harge of the c ampaign, expressed thomselvei as pleased with the re sponse of the young men of this vi cinity Rnd are looking forward to a big drive when the system of the recruiting campaign has been per fected. Sergeant Harry B. Schlffman and lilm brother, Corporal Ira L. Schlffman are taking a leading part in the campaign. DIES SUDDENLY Mary E. Richmond, aged 89, died suddenly this morning at his home, 1928 Penn street. A husband aitd two sons survive. HALLOWE'EN ON ONLY ONE NIGHT Police Contemplating Limit ing Sport to But One Night and That Must Be Orderly The young people of Harrisburg. and those of older years who are ftill your.;? in heart, may celebrate Hallowe'en this year as usual, with this one difference—it is more than likely that the celebration will l>e limited to but one evening.
