KNITTERS ASKED
TO MAKE SOCKS
Need For Helmets Passes
With Proximity of
Spring
"We don't need helmets just at
present. Tell the women to knit
socks, more socks, and still more
socks," officials of the Red Cross said
I his morning. The need for v<®hn
teer workers is great. Children and
a number of men have become quite
expert with the needles.
Merchants of the city are dem
onstrating their patriotism in an uni
que way by contributing their pack
ing boxes to the Red Cross. Boxes
.'lx2x2 and from % to % of an inch
ill thickness, can be used by thej
chapter for packing goods to be]
*ent to the camps. Other boxes are I
t.iken by the merchants to the Tech-J
nical High school where they are'
made over by the students and con-j
verted'into the standard" size pack
ing boxes. It was stated by Redj
<'ross officials that from $l5O to!
S2OO will be saved by the contrlbu-'
lion of these boxes.
A large number of afghans (con
valescent robes) have been received
by the knitting department, during
t lie past few days. Among these are
;i robe from the eighth grade of the
Cameron school building. Miss Annie

O'NEIL ASSAILS
- ROAD SYSTEM
Makes Attack Upon Main
Highway Law Whicft Has
Been in Force Since 1911
Highway Commissioner J. Denny
O'Neil last night at Lancaster made
a sensational attack upon the Sproul
main highway law, which was en
acted In 1911 and to which amend
ments have been made adding routes
every legislative session since. Mr.
O'Neil also announced the coming of
the freeing of the tollroads between
Harrisburg and Lancaster. In the
afternoon the Commissioner ad
dressed the Lancaster county super
visors and at night talked to the
Lancaster Automobile Club, which
has beeg active in prosecuting com
plaints against bad roads in Lan
caster county.
Mr. O'Neil'declared the act was an
obstacle in the path of good roads
movements and at the same time dis
closed facts about the freeing of toll
roads here that created wild enthusi
asm among the 300 banqueters. He
said in his attack: "The question ie
very frequently asked as to why
Pennsylvania does not have as com
plete a road system as New York
and Ohio. Any one familiar with con
ditions in Pennsylvania during the
last twenty years knows the reason
why. We have a so-called road bill
in Pennsylvania. It is a misnomer.
It should be entitled a political bill
passed by and for the politicians. In
place of helping the construction of
good roads, it has been a great
handicap to the Highway Depart-
I ment. Too nfany roads were saddled
upon the state for maintenance.
| Many of them were roads of minor
importance, but were placed in the
road bill through political influence.
The state Is compelled to spend
$2,000,000 each year for the mainte
nance of earth roads and every
spring must repeat the work of the
year before. The State Highway De
partment has now drafted a definite
system of roads -that will connect
the important centers of the state."
Commissioner O'Neil announced
and Lancaster and Williamstown toll
and Lancatier and Williamstown toll
roads had been 'purchased conjunc
tively by the state and county, rep
resenting a total distance of almost
thirty miles. By these purchases and
the freeing of the reads In a few
days free traffic will be inaugurated
all the way from Philadelphia to
Harrisburg.
Petitions Race About
Capitol Building
The State Capitol is having a fine
time these days watching the race of
the petitions about the big building.
People In the departments under the
Governor, with exceptions of some
departments and commissions whose
chiefs do not take kindly to the
fashionable methods of obtaining
signatures, are getting names on
O'Neil papers, while people in de
partments not under the* Governor
are signing up Sproul petitions.
In the city the Sproul people seem
to be running ahead, but the O'Neil
men are hopeful. The highway com
missioner's declaration that he did
not approve of the "rough" methods
adopted to get men to work for him,
made some men feel better, but the
reports that Elmer E. Eshenhour,
one of the veterans of the Capitol
maintenance force, had been given
notice to quit his job on March 15,
without any reason being assigned,
made a lot of people mad. There was
a report that Esljenour had been or
dered "fired" by the Governor's of
fice, but this could not be verified.
Mr. O'Neil to-day reiterated his
declaration that he did not want
men to work for him except volun
tarilv and out of office hours and also
remarked that he was highly pleased
with his reception at Lancaster. To
morrow he will speak at Johnstown,
at a meeting of men of all churches,
which he says he understands is to
be quite an affair.
There was much interest to-day in
the attitude of Commissioner Ainey,
who. has just come home, but he is
a sphinx.

Why Stay Fat?
You Can Reduce
The answer of most fat people is
that it is too hard, too troublesome
and too dangerous to force the weight
down. However, in Marmola Prescrip
tion TaGlets, all these difficulties arc
overcome. They are absolutely harm
less, entail no dieting or exercise, and
have the added advantage of cheap
ness. A large case Is sold by drug
gists at 75c. Or if preferable, they
can be obtained by sending price di
rect to the Marmola Co., 864 Wood
ward Ave.. Detroit, Mich. Now that
you know this you have- no excuse
for being too fat, but can reduce two,
I three or four pounds a week without
I fear of bad after-effects.

Food Conditions Better
in Germany; Do Not
Believe U. S. in Earnest
An Atlantic Port, March 7. —Due
to a better system of food distribu
tion and more rigid control of food
supplies by means of ration cards
the past winter in Germany was
not so severe on the poor people as
was the previous winter, according
to Miss Elizabeth McCann, an Anwer
ican, who with her three sisters, ar
rived here to-day on a Danish steam
ship.
"The people are hoping for peace
to come soon," Miss McCann said.

i they have been told—that enough
American soldiers to help the allies
Ito extent, will not be able to
i Croa* the Atlantic."

operating in this region took some
prisoners.
"In the Vosges the enemy made

French lines."
Amerlcnna Hold Elßkt-mlie Front
Washington, March 7.—American"
troops are now holding something
over eight miles of trenches on the
battlefront in France, It was learned
although In an alr-llne
their frontage is only about folir
and a half miles. This frontage Is
I liable to extension at any time to
the regular trench allotmenl for an
| army corps. *
Irregularity of the trench lines is
responsible for their being eight,
mile! In length. They are laid out
so that flanking fire may be obtained
along every part of the front. Strong
points containing machine guns jut
out for this purpose. The trenches
also follow closely any protective
slope of the country and wander up
and down hill.
J The American sector is understood
to be a divisional frontage, which
means that at least three divisions
of American troops (27,000 to a divi
sion or 81,000 in- all) are there to
give the encessary support in depth
for the front lines.
I.lKKett May lie Cdriw Commander,
This has aroused speculation here
as to who will be selected by Gen
eral Pershing to command the first
corps of his army. Major-General
Hunter Liggett Is known to have
acted in this capacity, but as yet
the expeditionary commander has not
made any recommendation.
It Is possible that the French sys
tem will be followed In the Ameri
can Army so far as the appointment
of corps commanders goes. It iB the
custom in France to select any one
of the division commanders in a
corps and to place him at the head
of the corps. He retains his rank
as division commander, however, and
In case of the American Army that
would be a major-general. If the
French practice is adopted, therefore,
the grade of lieutenant-general may
bo employed only for Held commind
ers.
Headquarters American Troops In
France, March 6.—American troops
oti still another place on the French
front have been raided by Germans',
who were repulsed with losses.
This is the first time permission is
given to mention this engagement.
Tho American forces entered the bat
tleline in a certain place in Lor
raine. The French commander co*-.
gratulated the Americans on their
behavior.
LThe foregoing is confirmation of
the French official statement of
March 5, which said that a German
attack on trenches held by Amer
ican forces in Lorraine on the night
of March 4 was repulsed.l
