SOLDIERS STRONG
FOR LIBERTY LOAN
Harrisburger in Camp Pre
sents Letter of Appeal to
Rotary President
Do you think the boys in camp are
not interested in the liberty Bond
issue now being subscribed?
If you have any doubt on the sub
ject read this letter which Captain
George F. Lumb, of the Harrisburg
Rotary Club, presented at a Liberty
Loan meeting in Marysville last
night; it is self explanatory:
Camp Stuart, Newport News, Va.
April 1, 1918.
Dear Captain Lumb:
It is now 12.30 p. m. and have a
battalion parade before us this af
ternoon. This forenoon we noncoms
of the first and second platoon were
down on the pistol range trying out
our marksmanship with the Colt 45
automatic. I hit the target eight
times out of ten, but made only one
• bull eye.
The main object of this letter is to
carry out an order of the command- j
ing officer (Colonel Gerheart) who
has requested all enlisted men of the
regiment to write to some influential
friend of theirs and ask them to use
their influence to have ten of their
friends purchase Liberty Bonds of
the third loan which starts the sixth
instant. Our part of furthering the
sale of the bonds will be in the form
of a military parade through New
port News on Saturday (6th).
The money from the sale of this
Liberty Loan is to be used for sup
plying us soldiers with food, clothing
and equipment ad our very existence
depends on the success and final
outcome of it so you see why I nm
requesting you to use your influence
in helping it along. I have the ut
most confidence in your ability to
be able to influence ten or even more
persons to buy a Liberty Bond. T
picked you as I consider you my
most influential friend, also my best
friend and hope you make out O. K.
Please let me know nteh result of
your efforts so I can report to my
platoon commander.
We are having tine weather here.
Yesterday being Easter was a fine
day and although I have spent other
Easters with better circumstances
T enjoyed myself more than I had
really expected to. Your Fncle Sam
uel opened up his heart, also his
pocket book and gave us eggs (boil
ed) for breakfast and chicken for
dinner and it made us all feel that
the Army ie not such a bad place
after all.
Hoping this finds you O. K. I am,
Sincerely,
JAS. L. KLING.
Corp. Co. A. Fourth U. S. Inf.
P. S.: Give my compliments to the
club.
Kling's home address is R. D. 2.

Senate Decides Disloyal
U. S. Employes Must Go
By Associated Press
Washington. April 10.—A motion
to table an amendment proposed by
Senator Penrose, of Pennsylvania,
providing for the discharge of gov
ernment appointive officers for vio
lation of the provisions of the pend
ing sedition bill, was lost 27 to 26,
when the Senate resumed debate on
the issue to-day. Senator Overman,
of North Carolina, accused the Penn
sylvania Senator of "having some of
ficial in mind" in introducing it.
Senator Penrose replied he "had sev
eral men in mind."
Senator Nelson, of Minnesota, said
amendment was designed for the re
moval from office of one man. If a i
person were guilty of making dis- ]
loyal utterances, he should be remov- j
cd, he said, regardless of whether;
, the bill Is passed.
Senator Nelson ,of Minnesota, said
he understood the proposed amend
ment was to apply to cases like that
of George Creel, chairman of the
committee on public information.
After a brief debate the Senate
adopted a substitute for the amend
ment by Senator Jones, of New Mex
ico, providing that any employe or
official in the executive branch of
the government who commits any
disloyal act or utters any unpatriotic
or disloyal language, or criticises the
Army or Navy or the flag, shall at
once be dismissed from the service.

ard on trans-Atlantic steamers and
made his first trip l'rom Richmond,
Va., in a horseboat, landing at Bris
tol, England. . l-'rom there he re
turned to Philadelphia and when
war broke out he went to Jackson
ville, Fin., the typical adventurer,
with a wild desire for the open wave
and trouble.
Down in Florida he "hooked up"
with a German named Henry Sear
dorff. who "frisked" him of $250
while he peacefully slept in the city
of Miami.
Suspicious of Germans
"This made me suspicious of Her
mans," he related and I made up my
mind 1 would look out for that breed
wherever I went."
Penniless from the German touch,
Harry Glass reached Fort
dale on the cast coast of Florida
where friends picked him up and
shipped him to Savannah. There,
government officials, noting his pa
triotic zeal, sent him to Baltimore
and thence to Philadelphia. '
Want to hear about his adventure
with German torpedoes? Well, here
it is.
"it seems a strange occurrence,"
said he, with a hand to his wounded
head. "But the experience of be
ing torpedoed cannot bo described.
This is God's truth. 1 was having
tiffin, or lunch with the chief
steward. I shipped as second stew
ard and we were talking in the gal
ley at 12.25. On Monday, March 18
IHFt I had shipped from Philadel
phia on an oil tanker, loaded with
barreled oil. It was a heavenly day,
March 18, bright sun and they told
us we were off the coast of Scotland,"
said Glass, who seems to be some
what dazed with his terrific experi
ence. "I wish X coud tell you just
what happened. It's terrible, horri
ble."
I " 'Well, Harry,' said the chief j
steward, 'you'd better go up and get
| down some vegetables for to-mor

bang. Oh. something terrible! The
I most horrible feeling came over me
!and I jumped. See! I jumped. Mind
you, It was just 12.25, noon, with the
j sun shining and everything lovely.
; The explosion was terrific. I leaped
■ out of the galley from the steward
j and just as 1 got amidships the

disclosed a wound clear across his
forehead.

! the hurricane deck. I could not think
| of leaving without my citizen papers
jand finally got to my room, securing
i them and a coat. The ship was then
| nearljs gone. She sank in twelve
minutes and a little after the first
I torpedo hit her. As I came out of
| the room the whole sea and deck was
I a mass of oil, a shower of it.
I "I tried to make the lifeboat
which had been launched. It was
about twelve feet from the hurri
cane deck which was now nearly
j level with the sea. But I slipped and
| fell, and I don't remember any
thing else until I heard the German
I submarine captain's voice. I had on
a life preserver, and kept on the sur
i face. The ( submarine came right
, along side of the sinking vessel but
*nade no attempt to save any of us.
j The second mate and a cabin boy
i drowned. All the rest were able to
| keep up with life belts and the life
boat.
The Hun I^iuglis
I "I will never forget that German
j submarine captain. As we hove
! alongside he laughed so hard that
|he almost got me to smile. The
icrew laughed, too. But I could not
j understand his humor. I was think
i ing of the moment when our ship
! burst: broke right in two pieces. My
| God, man, you can't understand .what
II am talking about. Well, the Ger
man captain looked us over and
asked In the best of English: "Who
Is your captain?" He scanned us
over as we hung onto the lifeboat
and grinned, yet he seemed to be
' a gentleman.
I "He's here," said the, chief stew
jard. "but more dead than alive."
| Then he asked us what the cargo
was and demanded the mate. He
took him on board the submarine
and kept him prisoner, but let the
rest of us go.
Fun For the Crew
"They're scared blue," the German
captain said In his perfect English,
and all his crew laughed. This cap
tain had a brown, well-kept
mustache and a little goatee. He
treated us pretty good in a way, for
we asked him which way we should
sail the lifeboat and he gave us di
rections. "Point south," he said in
his perfect English, "and you ought
to strike some British trawlers."
"This we did,and a Scottish fishing
trawler picked us up and landed us
near Bridge End on the coast of
the Irish sea. Will you please men
tion the Scotch. Man, they are the
best people God ever made. Amer
ica as a nation should take off their
hats to the Scotch. God bless 'em, I
say."
Harry Glass reached Harrisburg
yesterday. He has always been of
an adventurous turn. But this ex
perience seems to have overwhelmed
him. The tragedv of the explosion,
the breaking of the vessel In twelve
minutes, the submersion and final
rescue have so stirred his soul and
mind that he can hnrdly collect him
self. To talk with him Is a tonic

specially for Miss Swilkey.
An Able Solicitor
Captain George F. Lumb, of this
city, proved an able solicitor at a
loan meeting held last night in
Marysville. The meeting was in
charge of Senator Scott Leiby. Cap
tain Lumb read a letter written to
him by a Perry county soldier named
Kllng, in which Lumb was asked
personally to sell ten Liberty bonds.
Senator Leiby asked the audience
what it was going to do about
Kling's letter.
"We're going to buy bonds!"
shouted a man in the audience.
And in the next few minutes six
teen bond sales totaled $3,300.

and numerous lines were reported
down in the vicinity and west of the
city. Accompanying the storm was
a twenty-six to thirty-mile gale,
which lasted all night and to-day.
and in some cases blew down tele
phone poles and trees. The Postal
Telegraph Company reports llfty
poles down between this city and
Carlisle alone.
The coating of Ice A'hich covered
trees last night is giving much con
cern. County Farm Agent Niesley
said this morning that the effect of
the storm on the fruit trees and
early crops is highly problematical,
us at times such a storm does not
leave ill effects. He regarded it as
1 a subject of congratulation that tha
! coating of sleet ice remained on the
ttfces such a short time.
Early cherries, apricots and plums
are the fruits most likely to be af
fected. No damage was done, it was
said, where blossoms have not
opened.
Conditions for pedestrians in the
city this morning were worse than in
months. The streets and sidewalks
were covered with almost two inches
of snow, rain and Ice, which stood
on the walks for hours. The ruin
tontinued to fall in driving masses,
but the wind blew so strongly it was
almost impossible to keep umbrellas
raised. The ever-present statistician
counted eleven ruined umbrellas in
Market street in the business sec
tion before 8 o'clock this morning.
Numerous street corners were dec
orated with the ruins of umbrellas,
and every out-of-the-way corner was
the harbor for one of the discarded
parasols.
Fell to 30 Degrees
The temperaturo last night fell to
£0 degrees. At S o'clock it had
risen to 3G degrees, where it will
continue throughout the day, after
which colder weather is forecasted.
The combined rain, snow and sleet
storm, with the accompanying cold
t ather, was caused, Ix>cal Weather
Forecaster Demain said, by the verg
| ing of a "sluggish" rainstorm from
the North Carolina coast with a cold
wave from the northwest. The
storm is general east of the lake re
gion, with the exception of the New
i Kr.gland states, and south to the
north of Florida. Considerable snow
j has been reported in some parts of
Pennsylvania, while the worst part
of the storm appeared to be in the
western part of the state.
The officials of the Harrisburg
Railways Company reported no delay
in maintaining schedules because of
I the storm. The sleet and ice on the
wires and tracks at lirst caused some
confusion in operating the schedules,
but no appreciable delay, they said.
Trolley Schedules Hit
Officials of the Valley Railways
Company reported that cars were be
ing operated on all lines, but not on
schedule. The wind, the officials
said, had blown down wires, which
was causing a considerable amount
of trouble and holding up traffic.
A car jumped the track sit Knola
this morning about 7 o'clock, hold
ing up traffic for a long time. Pas
sengers were transferred from one
car to another while workmen were
trying to get the car on the track.
Slippery tracks and icy wires held
up traffic last night on the lines.
l<ate in the night it was impossible
to keep schedules and reports of
trouble were made from crews on all
lines. Officials are hopeful of get
ting cars running on schedule by
this evening.
Hepnir Wire*
The various telephone and tele
graph companies had supervisors
with workmen on their lines to-day
repairing the damage caused by the
storm. Ivong stretches of wires had
been thrown across the road at
Hogestown and Carlisle. Postal
Telegraph communication with the
West was cut off by a storm, but an
emergency cable hastily installed
will take care of the messages, the
local manager said this morning.
Telephone wires In the city were
not put out of service to any con
siderable extent. The Cumberland
Valley Telephone Company reported
trouble with their toll lines, and the
Bell lines to the West were dam
aged by the sleet.
The weather forecaster declared
the storm Is not unusual for this time
of the year, as twice as much snow
fell two years ago on April 8. An
old record shows that twenty-three
years ago yesterday twenty Inches of
fcnow fell.
Unniage Throughout State
Philadelphia, April 10.—A snow
storm which reached winter blizzard
proportions swept over the northern
ond central sections of Pennsylvania
last night. The fall Is six to eight
inches deep in the mountains.
An eight-Inch snowfall was re
corded In Shamokin. Bellefonte last
night reported freezing temperatures.
The snowfall at Mahanoy City was
