HOLDING TAG DAY
FOR RED CROSS
School Committee Perfects
Plans For Increasing Treas
ury of Junior Red Cross
When the Red Cross school com
mittee met yesterday afternoon with
Mrs. William Henderson, the chair
man, it was decided that Saturday,
May 4. be known as "Tag Day" for
the benefit of the Junior Red Cross.
The report of Daniel D. Hammel
baugh, the treasurer, shows that
10,494 pupils are enrolled in the
graded schools of the city and 9,738
of these are now in the Red Cross,
equalling 93 per cent. By Easter
every building In the city expects to
have a record of 100 per cent.
There are twenty-nine graded
schools, and out of these thirteen
have already the 100 per cent menir
bership. Of the five parochial
schools, each has reached the full
membership. Mrs. David E. Tracy,
representing the parochial schools
on the committee, is looking after
the Junior Red Cross there.
The report of Mr. Hammelbaugh
as treasurer gives a total of $2,785.14
paid into the Junior Red Cross treas
ury. He paid out last month $309.19
for materials, and no more money
for dues will come for another year,
the treasury must be augmented in
some way—therefore Tag lJay.
Make Generous Gifts
Mr. and Mrs. J. K. White have
generously agreed to furnish the tin
boxes for collecting money and alsoi
the tags, their gift amounting Co I
about §OOO. It is hoped that from]
this Tug Day the Junior Red Cross
will reap several thousand dollars,
at least enough to carry on the
work for another year. ' This money
will all be used for materials for
the worlc the schoolchildren do.
Knitting, sewing, making layettes
for Belgian and French babies, the
Harrisburg Juniors are doing as
much and in some instances better
work than any so far reported in
the country.
The hearty co-operation of Dr.
Downcs. Professor Brehm, Daniel
Hammelbaugh and members of the
school board makes all this pos
sible.
The Definite Plans
It. is expected that three thousand
schoolchildren will be on the streets
on Tag Day. each with his box la
beled with the name of the school
and his own name. The money col
lected will go to the school to which
the child belongs, so that every one
is working I* g the prpstige given
that school, i rofessor J. J.' Brehm,
chairman of the Junior Red Cross
school committee, will issue letters
within a few days to every teacher
of the city, explaining Tag Day and
how the committee desires the
teacher to aid. The school commit
tee itself will raise the money for
prizes, thirty-two of which are being
arranged for, more to be added if
the funds are increased. Thirty
three dollars was secured Monday
from members of the Civic Club and
other contributions are promised.
Because of the personal and gener
ous interest of Mr. and Mrs. White,
the expenses are wonderfully low
ered for this big and patriotic un
dertaking.

Ir. Freund's Career
John C. Freund. editor of Musical
America, who will be the guest of
honor for three days of the commit
tee of the Community Singing Move
ment, has been traveling through
the country for the last four years
arousing interest in musical matters
in New York, Washington, Cincin
nati, Wichita, Kansas, San Antonio,
New Orleans, Hartford and other
cities, prosecuting his propaganda
for the recognition of the American
music teacher, composer and per
former. He has spoken also before
the student bodies of the largo uni
versities, public schools and musical
conservatories.
This propaganda has had at least
1 two pronounced effects. It led re
-1 c-ently to the formation of the Mu
sical Alliance of the United States
Pardon Board Limits
Occasion For Regret
Regret the State Board of
Pardons does not have power to
grant conditional pardons was ex
pressed by Lieutenant Governor Mc-
Clain, chairman of the board to-day
in hearing application for. freeing of
Paul and Albert May, Philadelphia,
serving terms for robbery. The peti
tioners are boys and experience in
other cases was related. Mr. Mc-
Clain said he believed power to grant
conditional pardons would be an ef
fective agency and that it should be
tried out. Dr. S. S. Hill, Werners
ville, who appeared for the boys, said
he had done so out of interest as they
had worked under him at the State
Hospital. In addition to Mr, Mc-
Clain, Attorney General Brown said
he believed in a systetn that would
leave open the door of hope.
The board heard an unusual long
list of cases, among them that of
William D. Rodgers, Lehigh, who
caused death of two people while
recklessly operating an automobile.
The District Attorney opposed the
pardon.
The Baxter case from Perry county
' was heard and the Heard case from
Cumberland submitted on papers
The board will give decisions to
night.

RACE RESULTS
IN WISCONSIN
LaFollette Candidate Runs
Slightly Behind Lcnroot,
Loyalty Candidate
By Associated Press
Milwaukee, Wis., March 20. —The
result of the Republican primary
contest yesterday for nomination for
United States Senator between Ir
vine IJ. Benroot, supporter of Presi
dent Wilson's war aims and .Tames
Thompson, the BaFollette candidate,
still was in doubt to-day.
Returns from the state at large
practically ceased at 1 a. m. with
bout sixty per cent, to be heard
from.
Such returns as were at hand show
ed a close race between Benroot and
Thompson outside of Milwaukee.
Thompson carried his home city,
BaCrosse, but Benroot seemed to
have captured most of the other dis
tricts In the western and northwest
ern part of the state. Thompson ap
parently carried many counties along
the shores of Lake Michigan.
Lcnroot in Dead
Partial returns from 62 of the 71
counties of the state, including Mil
waukee, give Benroot 56,696; Thomp
son, 54,763. Probably thirty per cent,
of the vote still was unreported at
10 o'clock.
Prediction was made early to-day
that doubt would not be removed in
the Republican senatorial contest
before to-night and possibly not be
fore to-morrow as returns are com
ing in slowly.
Former Congressman Victor Ber
ger. Socialist candidate, who was un
opposed, polled a larger vote than
early returns indicated, his manag
ers claiming the Socialist vote in the
state will reach a total of 50,000.
Berger carried Milwaukee county by
a vote equal to that of Benroot and
Thompson. The city yote, virtually
complete, was: Berger, 15,469;
Thompson, 9,917; Benroot, 6,181.
Berger Pleased
Berger said he was enthusiastic
over the large increase in the Social
istic vote and that the primary indi
cated Wisconsin Is opposed to the
war.
In the mayoralty primary yesterday
Mayor Hoan, Socialist, and Percy
Braman, Republican, were nominat
ed Mayor Hoan exceeded Berger's
vote in the city with 20,723 votes.
Braman was next with 16,283. Dam
man, Republican, received 4,950, and
Park, Democrat, 1,127 on virtually
complete returns. The two highest,
Hoan and Braman, will bo the ma
yoralty candidates at the regular
election.
The nomination by the Democrats
of Joseph K. Davies, former mem
ber of the Federal Trade Commis
sion, over Dr. Charles McCarthy, by
a large majority was made certain.
Both Democratic candidates in their
campaign strongly endorsed the war
policy of President Wilson.
After his nomination on the Dem
ocratic ticket was assured, Mr. Da
vies issued a statement in which he
said:
"The situation in Wisconsin in
volved the question of whether or
not Wisconsin shall support with all
her power our battle line in France. |
It also ♦involves the question of!
whether Wisconsin is wholehearted I
American in all cases and under all
circumstances." '
