But eight members are required to reach the charter mem bership aim of 100 members. E. B. Chenoweth, manager of the Kresge Five and Ten Cent Store, a newly-elected member of the club, was puzzled to-day when he learned abou ttho teif-dollar check being passed around the club. "When the check comes to me," Chenoweth de clared, "they'll have to bring a five ton truck, if they want to buy ton dollars worth of good at a five and ten cent store." Because of the inclement weather, the photograph of the club was not t.-tken, as was originally announced. J* Herbert Kellberg will bring his camera for the photograph, at the next luncheon. New members of the club are: Frank R. Downey, George D. Proctor, Robert W. Lesher, Charles M. Williams, Claude E. Neidig, W. 11. Houser, George W. Hlmes, Harry H. Hess, David W.

FRIDAY EVENING, Berlin Orgair Limits the Number of Fighting Men U. S. Can Spare to Europe London, Jan. 18. —Commenting upon the Ntatement made by Secre tary of War Baker before a Con gressional Committee regarding war p.'opu rations, the semi-official Nord doufsche Allgemeine Zeitung of Ber- IM say Is: "The American secretary of war speakn of an American army in France. There is an American army in France, but it consists entirely of woodcutters, railway men and doc tors. except two or three divisions whose precious lives are being spared in ouiet places." "Mr. Baker speaks as if shortly there would be 1,500,000 Americans in France. Can the United States spare such a large number of men? The answer is no, because a large rart of the army must remain be hind lor the protection of the fron tiers, Die coasts, the colonics and fcr other duties of a political naturo. The political situation compels the United States to keep at home t'ne greater portion of its army and the country can at the most out only 41'0.C00 or 500.000 men in the Euro pean battlefields.'

Remarkable Photo Taken at Lanch Hour Daring Battle of Cambrai This photograph taken at the height of the British advance at Cambrai showed East County troops resting for lunch in the trenches behind their machine guns. The picture was taken while bullets were flying over the heads of the men. ITALIAN TROOPS BREAK PRESSURE [Continued from First Page.] canals. But recently low water lias permitted the enemy to renew his incursions almost to Capo Sile and the Venetian lagoons. linemy patrols had established dugouts and posts in the lagoons at Agenzia JSuliana, just across the river from Capo Sile, which com mands the canal running to Porto Grande and the region back of Venice. During the early days of the week the Italian navy had bom barded the dugouts and destroyed the bridge on which the enemy was attempting to cross at Agenzia Trezza. The enemy made repeated attempts to enlarge his position but was uniformly repulsed. Met b.v Chosen Troops Stung by the repeated checks the enemy brought' his full force to bear yesterday morning. They were met by chosen Italian troops from the Grenadier and Bersaglieri brigades. The Italian defense was led by the Bersaglieri, who had asked that privilege in order to answer scur rilous pamphlets which had been thrown into the Italian lines. The Bersaglieri hewed their way to the enemy's support line. The fight was stubborn for the first two hours, but the enemy gradually gave ground as fresh ranks of Bersaglieri cheering the singing patriotic sings, threw themselves into the struggle. The enemy was finally pushed back from the positions he had gained. One of the favorite ruses used by the enemy was for a party of his troops to advance with their hands up, calling "Kamerad!" when they would get close to the Italian lines they would rush forward suddenly with hand grenades but to be mowed down as they advanced by the Italian machine gunfire. The fighting throughout was at close quarters. Italians Take Prisoners Heavy losses were sustained by the enemy and the Italians captured 150 prisoners. The battle ground was covered with Austrian dead, and burial parties were busy through the night. Many individual instances of brav ery stand out. In one case an Ital ian officer and five men leaped into an Austrian trench, took two ma chine guns, killed all the Austrian gunners and brought back the guns. The Italian success gives a serious check to the enemy effort to im prove his position near Venice. RUSSIA FACES NEW PROBLEM [Continued from First Page.] Bolshevik ultimatum to release Rus sian troops under arrest. Premier Le nine lias ordered his soldiers to arrest King: Ferdinand and bring him to Pe trograd. The Bolslieviki are said to be serious in their intention to im prison the Rumanian king.

The Bolsheviki announce the capture by their troops of Itkutsk, Siberia, and Orenburg. The Constitutent Assembly, con trolled by parties opposed to the Bol sheviki, is to meet to-day unless the government again intervenes. Should it meet, it is anticipated in Petrograd that there will be disor der there. Most of the delegates to the assembly are said to be in Petro grad.

If you want to keep your hair look ing Its best. Most soaps and pre pared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it. The best thing for steady use Is Just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil (which is pure and greaseless), and is better than the most expensive soap or anything else you can use. One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse the hair and scalp thorough ly. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. It taakes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves the scalp soft, and the hair fine and silky bright, lustrous. Huffy and easy to manage. You can get mulsified cocoanut oil at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and a few ounces will supply every mem ber of the family for months. HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH U. S. Government Seizes 1,000,000 Loaded Shells Meant for Russian Govt. Wilmington, Del., Jan. 18.—About 1,000,000 loaded shells, comprising 125 carloads, originally made for the Russian government, which have been stored in magazines along the Delaware river, below Wilmington, were seized to-day by the United States government, which placed 100 soldiers on guard. The exposives were made ;'or the original Russian government and when it collapsed the local contrac tor had them on his hands. At the time of the seizure they were re puted to be the property of the New Castle Construction Company and, as far as known no arrangements had been made for any disposition of them. Because of the fear they might prove a menace to Wilming ton, complaint is said to have boon made to the federal government which acted promptly. What dis position the government will make of;the explosives is not known. Germany Will Make New Move For Peace Declares Senator Lewis Washington, Jan. 18.—Germany and Pope Benedict, Senator Tjewis, of Illinois declared to-day, both are planning new early peace, move ments. "I have reasons to know," said Senator Lewis, discussing his Senate resolution proposing endorsement of the President's peace program, that Berlin expects to withdraw her peace proposals to the Bolsheviki and make new proposals but propos als which will be applicable not only to Russia, but to all her opponents. "I also have information," he con tinued, "that the Pope is planning with the acquiescence of Italy an other effort toward peace.

Yesterday Mrs. Marian Kennedy Waite, mother of the chil dren, was buried here. The babies will be brought here to their grand parents, Mr. and Mrs. C. Edward Kennedy, 1011 North Seventeenth street. The body of Mrs. Waite was brought here by her husband, Dr. John Herbert Waite, who started from Australia the day after she died. Missouri Voluntarily Places Restrictions on All Amusements Hy Associated Press St. Louis, Mo., Jan. 18.—Missouri to-day prepared to observe the man date of its fuel administrator, cur tailing amusements of every nature and Imposing restrictions upon prac tically every consumer of coal In the state. The order became effective at 1 o'clock this morning. It was de signed by Fuel Administrator Cross ley as an aid to yesterday's drastic regulations by the Federal fuel ad ministration and is aimed to avert if possible, an inclusion of Missouri in the restrictions placed upon in dustries east of the Mississippi river. Plan For Rebuilding of Swatara Creek Bridge Plans for the rebuilding o*f the bridge over the Swatara creek just west, of HummelstjOwn on the main highway between Harrisburg and Heading, are being considered by the County Commissioners. The present structure is on old wooden covered bridge, and is inadequate to meet the increasing traffic demands. While the new structure is being erected the old one will be kept in use. William Jennings and E. J. Stack pole, of the committee from Dauphin county, conferred with the commis sioners to-day on the road plans for the turnpike through Dauphin, Leb anon and Berks counties. Council and Candidates to Settle Controversy Council, three candidates for city treasurer—Harry F. Oves, Ed. C. First and William S. Tunis, and newspapermen, will meet this even ing at 7.30 o'clock when the charges made by Commissioner Gross that the three men In question "went too far" in soliciting his vote, will b* heard. The special meeting was de cided upon after Council made a fruitless attempt to elofct a city treasurer. The delay is holding up the issuing of about 18,000 notices to property owners in the city, which must be gotten out about two months earlier this year because of a change' in {be law. GOVERNOR SEEKS TO RELIEVE ORDER [Continued from First Page.] other labor organizations who were in the city and in addition to asking their views urged that they do their utmost to have their people help wherever possible. The Governor embodied his views in a statement in the course of which | he asked why skilled men could not j be sent home for a week from the camps to help break the congestion. It is understood here that there are 15,000 Pennsylvanians familiar with railroad work in camps. Statement in Pull The statement issued is as follows: "The decree of the fuel administra- j tor, affecting as it does, the very life' of this Commonwealth, I view with i grave concern., I regret that due no tice of its promulgation was not given the state administration and our business interests. The people of Pennsylvania are intensely loyal. They can well be taken into the con fidence of the nation in advance of j an action that may entail results of the most far reaching and unhappy consequences. We shall have a tre mendous army of people idle at a time when these people need em ployment and the nation needs the product of their labor. Just how much suffering will ensue time alone will reveal. We must plan at once to relieve the distress that seems in evitable. The members of the Na tional Senate and House who were present and voiced a word of coun sel for time to plan for the new or der of things, are to be commended. To-day I shall confer widely with representative leaders of thought throughout the state and will then take such action in the interests of the peace and safety of our indus tries and our people as the circum stances and the views of our people may warrant. If—as it doubtless seemed to be—there is crying need for fuel for our vessels, would it not have been wise to shift the army of laborers from one to another activity and thus accomplish the result, keep our people employed and secure the lurgest possible output of our in dustries? Miht it not have been possible to turn back the skilled men in the national cantonments for a week's service in relieving the acute conditions existing?" "Questions relating to the banking institutions of the state under the 'shut down order' will be taken up with the banking commissioner and all other questions will be considered with the Attorney General who will advise as to the relation of the state," said Governor Brumbaugh to day. "1 have in mind to ask the judges of the state to request that bars be closed on the days when industrial plants are shut down." The question what to do about the state offices outside of the Capitol will be determined in a day or so. The Capitol will be kept open as it has a supply of river coal. Acting Commissioner Lew R. Pal mer, of the Department of Labor and lindustry sent the following telegram to all supervising inspectors: "The days on which industries are closed by the federal fuel administrator not beins 'classed as Pennsylvania legal holidays, this department cannot permit overtime lor women. Ques tions regarding this matter other than overtime for women should be referred to William Potter, Pennsyl vania fuel administrator, Bellevue- Stratford, Philadelphia." The woman's law permits over time on three days in the same week during which a holiday occurs pro vided such overtime does not exceed two hours in any one day and the hours for the week do not exceed fifty-four. Commissioner Palmer said that if overtime work were permitted for women that the effect of the Mon day holidays declared strictly for coal conservation would be nullifled.

D. B. Ainey. "Diplomacy has lagged behind democracy by at least 600 years,"' says Commissioner Alney, who has just been notified from Christiana, Norway, of his election to life mem bership in the Inter-Parliamentary Union a recognition accorded to only two other Americans—Senator Root and Senator Burton. The Inter-Parliamentary Union was brought into being by members of the British House of Commons and the French Chamber of Deputies, who conceived the idea that the leg islative bodies of the world powers should have some means, even though unofficial, of meeting on common grounds in order to ex change views and get In touch with the various problems that affect the foreign policies of the various na tions. Many of the propositions con sidered in the first and second Hague conferences originated as a result of the deliberations of this union. Commissioner Ainey has been made a permanent member of the Inter-Parliamentary Union upon the recommendation of the Amer ican branch, composed of senators and congressmen, in recognition of! his services while a member of Con-1 gress in promoting a better under standing between the United States' and Japan. As a member of the Foreign Affairs cojnmlttee he gave much time to the so-called Japanese question; and the work done by him and his colleagues contributed large ly to laying the foundation of good will which has resulted so recently ir. a constructive international pol icy affecting these two countries. "Diplomacy had its origin in days when inonarchs were supreme and ambassadors represented their per sonal selection," says Commissioner I Ainey. "This kind of diplomacy is ; too secretive and too unresponsive 1 to meet the needs of the present I "With the advent of parliaments more- responsive to the will of the people there did not occur a corre sponding change in the method of selecting these foreign representa tives, so that the issues of war and peace now rest largely in the hands of the few. Hardly a half dozen men, none of them selected by 'or tesponsible to the English parlia ment, the Russian Duma, the French Senate or Chamber of Deputies, de termined to a large extent the is sues resulting in the present war. It is needless to say that foreign pol icies are equally beyond the control of the German people. "If with the dawn of a new day, when peace shall properly come, there shall, by international accord, be created and sent a larger repre sentation from country to country, composed of one or more persons se lected by the chief executive and of one or more selected by the Senate and House, and to act as an am bassadorial college in the country to which they are severally attributed, a long step toward securing and maintaining international comity will have been taken. "I do not think that such a step can properly be taken in advance of the conclusion of the war, but the preliminary may well be discussed in Congress and plans considered prior to that time. "While it is true that in Great Britain questions of policy, including foreign policy, are occasionally de termined through appeals to the country, and in that sense the Brit ish House of Commons is in closer touch with the foreign problrtns of the British empire than is the American congress with the foreign problems of this country, still there, as here, the method ip cumbersome and wrong in principle. Let the rep resentatives of the various parlia ments of the world be enabled offi cially to get in closer touch with each other, whereby the opportunity for misunderstandings would be greatly minimized. The develop ment of the Inter-Parliamentary •Union is of and in itself a step in the right direction." Europe's Largest Dam Built by U. S. Experts The largest dam in Europe, situat ed near the old fortified town of Talarn, Spain, was recently com pleted by American engineers and experts. It is constructed of con crete, and is 330 feet high, 700 feet long and 230 feet at the base, grad ually decreasing to 14 feet at the top. The Noguera Fallaresa river flowed through the chasm across which the dam is built, and it abuts on almost perpendicular cliffs. The valley above the dam was bought from the various landhold er at a cost of nearly $1,000,000, end now filled with water, forms an artificial lake 15% miles long and 3 % miles wide. The floodgates are so carefully balanced that they open automatically under the pressure of a rise of one inch of water. The natural formation of the rock near the dam has been utilized to pro vide a spillway with a capacity of 70,000 cubic feet of water a second. The darn has a twofold object in the production of electric power and use in irrigation. The water that now passes through the powerhouse yields an electric current of 20,000 horse power. it will be in creased to 40,000 horse power. The water is carried by a system of canals into an arid district, where it irrigates a surface of nearly one hundred square miles.
