Lieutenant Lesher is exceedingly
well pleased with the response the
district has given to the call to arms.
Ills letter follows:
"My Dear Mr. Mayor:—The success
of the Y. M. C. A. drive and all other
Movements undertaken In Harrisburg
is so magnificent that I wish to con
gratulate you and others associated
in great causes.
"Speaking of my end of it, the
Army recruiting, I can state to you
that the city of Harrisburg, from
April 1. 1917, to date, has furnished
about 1.000 per cent, of its war quota
called by the Government for the
Regular Army. We had so many ]
patriotic young men enlisting in Har- '
risburg between April 1 and June 8-
that it was not necessary to call anv |
men under the selective law. All en- !
listments since July 1, 1917, are cred-i
ited against the second selective call. 1
and I take great pleasure in assuring
you that with hard work we will b ■ I

belongs, at the top. The State ot j

30,000 recruits for the Regular Army |
since April 1, the Harrisburg dis- I

SATURDAY EVENING,
ether words, your path l strewn
with roues instead of thorns.
"I wish to announce to you that 1
liave this date had the pleasure ot
having a conference with President
Gabriel H. Mover, of the P, O. S. of A.
This conference lasted about ten
minute*. He has pledged the co-op
cratlon of the order to stimulate re
cruiting and 1 am sure that you will
see a decisive result In the next
thirty days. To show that this Is a
patriotic organization President Moy
er states that the service flag which
will l>e unfurled In the city of Phila
delphia contains over 10,000 stars,
each representing a man belonging
to that order who Is now In the serv
ice- of the United States.
"Walking along the street of Har
risburg, there la hardly a residence or
business house that does not display
a service (lag containing one to an
unlimited number of stars. 1 may
add that In every city In the twenty
counties of my district the same ac
tivities are ill progress und with this
co-ordination 1 believe we may rest
well assured that democracy Is safe
insofar as Harrisburg Is concerned.
"Ifou occupy an enviable position;
you have done your duty In every
respect. I take this occasion to thank
you for your active co-operation In
recruiting.
"One simple statement to show that
patriotism is >vell aroused in Hurrls
l-urg is the fact that Harrisburg re
cruiting district, containing a popu
lation of 1,70),000 inhabitants, has
furnished more manpower for the
protection of humanity than that ot
New York City with a concentrated
population of 5,500,000 Inhabitants,
since April 1. 1917.

m
Lieutenant Elliott Hoagland, who
lias been connected with the local Re
cruiting Station, has resigned his com
mission, and will re-enlist as a pri
vate, probably in the aviation service.
Hoagland some time ago resigned
from an Officers Training Camp to re
turn to the Recruiting Station here,
thinking that his services here as
sergeant would be more valuable
than as a lieutenant in a training
camp.

RAILROADS MAY
POOL EQUIPMENT
TO MOVE TRAFFIC
Congestion Hasßeached Stage
Where Radical Measures
Must Be Employed
Washington. Nov. 21.—A plan for
pooling the entire railway equipment
and traffic of the United States was
taken up at a conference to-day be
tween Government ofleials and rail
road heads. Congestion has reached
a stage. It is realized, where radical
measures must be put into force if
the country's traffic is to be moved.
The conference was attended by
members of the railroad war board.
Robert 8. Lovett, Government di
rector of priority of transportation;
Fuel Administrator Garfield, Food
Administrator Hoover, Chairman
Hurley of the Shipping Board and
others.
Although the railroads are han
dling a much larger volume ot
freight and passenger traffic than
ever moved before, railroad officials
admit that unless something is done
immediately the lines cannot carry
all that is offered by the public for
transportation
Joint operation of the railroads by
the Rall\vay War Board has helped
the situation, but all recognize that
more must be done if the problem is
to be solved.
K\tn pooling tracks and equipment
will not be enough, some railroad
heads believe, and they have pre
sented to the Government a list ot
r-ore than 500 commodities for which
they ask that transportation be denied
on the ground that their movement
is not essential to the conduct of the
war.
Railway congestion is particularly
marked in the east, where most ot
tue big industrial plants engaged in
war work are located, and if a pool
ing plan is put into operation it may
be applied at first only to eastern
i-cads.

MAKE TRACTORS
WORK 24 HOURS
Secretary Tatton Makes Sug
gestions to Help Farmers
Work I Text Spring
The suggestion that chambers of
commerce, boards of trade and other
organizations unite In the purchase
of farm tractors so that farmers
may have the benefit of mechanical
devices in plowing next spring when
the shortage of farm labor will be
seriously felt was made today by
Secretary of Agriculture, Charles E.
.Patton. Mr. Patton called attention
to the fact that the farm labor sit
uation in the state today was worse
| than known in the lifetime of any
i one connected with his department.
Secretary Patton also pointed to
> the fact that the Pennsylvania farm
er was asked to increase the acreage
for the 1918 wljeat crop by 14 per
cent, or approximately 200,000 acres
and he has actually accomplished an
increase of but five per cent or ap
proximately 04,484 acres. An in
crease of.acreage of twenty-five per
cent was asked for rye or approx
imately 70,000 acres, but in this line
of farming activity the actual rec
ords show that the increased acre-e
age will be but one per cent or
3,790 acres.
Mr. Patton is working on plans
that may bring some relief in the
spring and urges businessmen in
every community to look into the
conditions surrounding them and to
organize corn husking parties to help
out any farmers who are unable to
get their corn from the fields. The
winter can be spent in making plans
and preparations to organize for
systematic help to lie extended to the
farmers next spring so that as large
an acreage as possible may be -pre
pared and sown to the crops which
"will be needed to keep our armies
and our 'Allies in food at the front
and at the same time take care of
the millions at home.
Secretary Patton says: "Business-
STACCATO NOTES
It has taken war to bring the
United States government to the po
sition of officially recognizing the
value and power of music. The song
leaders who have been doing such
effective work in the various training
camps, have just been assigned form
ally to the quartermaster corps at
large and are now an integral part of
the Army. Thus the government has
put its official stamp of approval on
music, which is an important fact to
American musicians. •
A recent cablegram announces
that Leopold von Auer, the most fa
mous of Russian violin teachers, will
come to this country In the near
future. Another brilliant pupil, Max
Rosen will come with him. Prof, von
Auer is the teacher of Mischa Elman,
Efrem Zimbalist and the latest violin
sensation, Jascha Heifetz.
The Scotch bagpipe players were
breaking the atmosphere into thou
sands of fragments with their instru
ments. .
"Why do those pipers keep walkii;
up and down as they play?" asked
one stranger of another.
"I don't know," was the answer,
"unles it makes them harder to hit."
Mme. Marguerite Ober, one of the
German singers dropped from the
Metropolitan Opera cast recently, is
suing the opera company for in
fringement of contract. The defense
will claim that she, as a citizen of an
enemy country, has no standing in
American courts at the present time.
The Chicago Tribune ("Line-O-
Type or Two") says that it objects to
letting Kreisler fiddle here while
Venice burns.
"Our God in Our History"
to Be Dr. Mudge's Theme!
"Seeing Things as They Are" will |
be the subject for the morning ser-1
mon in the Pine Street Presbyterian
Church to-morrow. Dr. Mudge will
preach.
In the evening the last sermon in
the series of patriotic sermons on
"Our God in Our History" will be
given. The subject is "George Wash
ington." The church auditorium
has been crowded every Sunday
| evening and last week many were
I turned away. The sermon on
"George Washington" will be th'e
climax of the series.
On Thursday the Thanksgiving
service will be held in the church.
At the close of this service the "War
iService Flag," with over 140 stars,
will be unveiled.
Reserves Spend
Busy Evening
There vra.a something doing on every
floor of the City Grays' Armory last
night. Two companies of the Harris
burg Reserves held drills, one of them
having practically every man in uni
form for the first time, on the second
floor drill room; new recruits were in
structed and the manual of arms gone
through on the first floor, while in the
basement the Harrisburg Kifle Club,
of which many of the Reserves are
members, began its indoor rifle prac
tice.
Company A, commanded by Captain
W. A. Moore, had the largest drill
since the Reserves began Indoor
work. This company is now uni
formed.
In Company D, Captain Harry C.
Houtz announced the appointment of
Carl B. Ely to be first sergeant, suc
ceeding Walter Johnston, elected sec
ond lieutenant, and Leon Lowengard
and Frank H. Fager promoted from
corporals to be sergeants, and R. C.
Batley and A. R. Todd appointed cor
porals.

Prof. H. K. Ober, of Elizabeth
town College, will conduct a Bible In

mel Street Church of the Brethren,
on Wednesday evening. The sessions
will continue until Sunday. Decem

I
men and all of us must look upon
the situation aa one that relatively
affects UB as much as It does the suc
cess of our armies. If the farmer Is
not aided there will be short crops
and this will mean higher prices and
the tightening of the supply that will
be procurable for our own needs. It
should be the aim of the leading cit
izens of every community to see that
the farms In their district produce a
maximum of all regular crops. The
farmer has the ground but he needs
labor to till i„ to wit, cultivate and
harvest the crops. Thousands of
boys have been taken from the farms
for army ser%'lce, thousands of men
have been drawn into other Indus
tries and in many sections the
greater bulk of the farm work has
been left to the women. The farmer
has been compelled to curtail in
many directions, although he has
shown a noble spirit of willingness
to go ahead and do his duty to his
country. But he cannot go ahead
any better than any industry or bus
iness without the necessary help,
and the first duty of the government
and of every citizen of our stato
should be to see that the normal pro
duction of farm crops is assured
next year. All the agencies except
man power are at hand to produc
such crops, and a well organized
movement must be planned at once
to assure this great essential to the
farmer.
"Every chamber of commerce or
business organization in the state
should immediately make arrange
ments for the purchase or the rent
al of a farm tractor or tractors tor
use of the farmers in their commun
ity next spring. These tractors can
be worked on a systematic schedule
that can be made during the winter
months and when time comes for
outdoor work can be worked by two
or three shifts of men twenty-four
hours in the day if need be. The
farmers will pay enough for such
work to maintain such machines and
a great good can be accomplished
by working these tractors day and
night in preparing the fields for the
crops that must be sown. I believe
that tractors working under these
conditions can be kept busy the en
tire summer. Let the interest of
every man and woman in every
county enlisted in crop production
now and let us make it our aim In
every county tc improve as much as
possible oves this year's production.".
Fritz Kreisler, the Austrian viol
inist, denies that he has been guilty
of any anti-American actions. He
says that at the outbreak of the war
in July, 1914, he served six weeks as
a reserve officer in the Austrian army
on the Russian front. After being
wounded, he was pronounced an in
valid and honorably discharged from
any further service. He has sent
eleven individual monthly allowances
to the destitute orphans of Russian
and Serbian soldiers who died in a
hospital at the front and where his
wife, who was a nurse, pledged sup
port of their families. He has sent
money also to other needy people,
but declares he has not sent a penny
abroad since the United States enter
ed the war and that he has had no
word from abroad for eight months.
It is reported that Enrico Caruso
cabled SIO,OOO to Prime Minister Or
