' r EAT LESS MEAT EVERY loyal, patriotic citizen v will adhere strictly to the gov- v ernment's request that we eat less beef. And everybody will be the better ( for this latest form of self denial. ' As a people, we eat too much beef, i Beef is strong diet, too strong for t frequent Indulgence, unless one Is en- gaged in constant muscular exercise, and more high blood pressures, with f their attendant diseases, may be t traced to excessive meat eating than : to almost any one other thing. But j It Is palatable and is a constant temptation to both the housewife, who prepares the meals, and to those % who are fond of the good things of 1 life. So the food regulation may be s a blessing in disguise. But aside from that, we owe it to ' our boys at the front not to eat the ' things they need most —and beef at i this season must be conserved at ( home if there is to be a plentitude of it abroad. Who would not give up his roast or his steak to a hungry 1 soldier boy, if one should happen 1 along? Well, you give your meat \ to the soldier just as surely and just as truly by denying yourself of some 1 of the available supply as though you yourself handed him his dinner 1 on a platter. i The Food Administrator, however, ; offers the public the alternative of pork products. Pork was scarce last winter and beef plentiful. Now the reverse is true, so we are told to eat 1 ham and bacon and fresh pork, and deny ourselves beef. We will do as we are asked, and if next time the request comes for "meatless weeks," instead of "meat less days," we shall do without meat altogether, however disagreeable that may be. The American people are ready, indeed, to go much farther than such trivial sacrifices as these to win the war. All they want to know is what Is necessary for them to do, and why. Meanwhile, the President has not bothered to explain why Presidents Eea and Willard, two great railroad executives who pointed out the fal lacy of the Government's attitude toward the transportation systems several years ago, and Major-General Wood, who urged military prepared ness when pacifists now in places of power were calling such warnings hysteria—why these and others have been dropped or sidetracked. But the people will know. FOR "DRAFT" MEN MEN who are in the draft age will have opportunity to pre pare themselves for preferred branches of the service and for non commissioned officerships beginning Monday next, when special evening classes three times each week will be opened In the Technical High School, Instruction in radio work, carpentry and later in other branches will be given, and the young man who avails himself of the courses to be of fered will be far advanced along his favorite line of activity when his turn comes to be summoned to the colors. The public schools have been as signed this work here, very properly. Every citizen has an interest in the schools and Is entitled to whatever benefits they may have to bestow, j since they are maintained by the j taxes of himself and others. The J government has shown wisdom in us-! ing these mediums of special in-j structlon and the special corps of teachers trained for the purpose. And what is true of pre-war In struction applies to the contemplated re-education of wounded soldiers returning disabled from the front The public schools should be given an opportunity to help all such to useful pursuits where they can earn a living for themselves and thus maintain their positions in the com munity and their self-respect. It must not be said In the years to come that any soldier in this great war for FRIDAY EVENING, the freedom of mankind was per mitted to eke out a miserable liveli hood selling shoelaces on ft street corner. School authorities are very properly considering the formula tion of a proper course of Instruc tion and doubtless before many months wounded soldiers in the schools will be as common as adults attending the special sessions of the Wharton school are at present. Residents of South Harrisburg, who complain with reason of the park along the river south of Paxton street, have the remedy in their own hands. Why not call a meeting at once and demand a showdown. The people of Harrisburg never contemplated that the "Front Steps'' should be used as a coal wharf. CAPITOL PARK PLANS d ARCHITECT BRUNNER'S asser- o tion that Pennsylvania's capitol " park Is to be the most beauti ful In the United States is scarcely more gratifying than his accom- p panying comment upon the harmony! fl and breadth of vision of those as- sociated with him in this work. Mr. | Brunner might make the most won- I dcrful plans in the world, but unless they were approved by Governor | I Brumbaugh, Auditor General Sny [ der and State Treasurer Kephart. they would be merely so many prett> pictures. The members of the Board of Public Grounds and Buildings mean to make the capitol of Penn sylvania commensurate with the wealth and greatness of the Com- £ monwealth, and the results of their efforts to that end will stand s throughout the centuries as a monu- v ment to their public spirit and scope ® of vision. t Nor will Mr. Brunner's confidence o in the willingness of the city to do f its full part In the capitol develop- t ment meet with disappointment. As j, the architect says, Harrisburg's civic J spirit is high and it may be depended upon to co-operate with the State in whatsoever steps may be necessary. \ confident that, with the City Planning t Commission and Warren J. Manning ji looking after its interests, nothing v will be done in any way that will * conflict with the development of the li town or confuse or congest Its traf fic arrangements. Indeed, it expects p that the new park will help to solve some of the local traffic problems, n s rather than add to them. . r As to the plan for a monumental r viaduct at State street, with entrances i from Royal Terrace. Thirteenth street and other sections below and t above State street on the Hill, and j with driveways and walks leading 6 . from North street and Walnut street c jon the capitol side, there can be no c ■ controversy. Such a structure would s be so infinitely superior to the pro- J posed bridge at Walnut street that i there can be no fair comparison. | The State offers the city a real i ' bargain. Its proposal is to build ar. I < immense, monumental viaduct fromj a point near Thirteenth street, con- j ] necting with the new capitol parkj j extension on the west, and practically j i carrying the park through by means | ] of an eighty-foot boulevard to the J < Hill district itself. All it asks is that the city transfer its Walnut street bridge fund to the new project, the , Commonwealth to bear the re mainder of the expense. In other words, for the price of a merely commercial bridge we get a structure the like of which the city alone could not afford to build. Be sides, the amount authorized by the original bond issue would not now be sufficient for the purpose intended, as costs of construction have been doubled, or nearly so, since those early estimates were made. Mr. Brunner believes that, in view of the groat need of a bridge in this, locality, no time should be lost in | preparing for the improvement. No doubt those who voted for the Wal- j nut street loan, will be happy to register their votes in favor of di verting the fund, especially as it now appears that the Walnut street plan Is dead for all time. Such a transfer was made in Steelton a few years ago. The State street bridge is in bad ( shape'. It is a mere make-shift. Something must be done to replace it, and the Brunner plan is the one 1 best calculated to produce results. The proposed bridge being a part of the new park development and a , necessity as well, might be built with propriety during the war period, ' whereas public sentiment would be [ opposed to purely ornamental devel . opment in the present crisis, even ,| though the federal authorities would : sanction unessential work, which is ? doubtful. The sooner the city and the State authorities get together on f this project the better. No time is to be lost if anything Is to be done " this year. 1 3 Mayor Keister has been criticised - by "An Indignant Mother," In a letter i to the Telegraph, for mistaken lenl -3 ency in dealing with boys caught red- , 1 handed stealing from garments ut Island Park. The tendency In too many directions is to pity the of | fender and Ignore the victim. s "Let's finish the Job while we are rJLhere, o we don't have to come buck later." writes a Harrisburg soldier in France. That's the spirit of the boys over there, and must be the spirit over here. Correspondent, writing a Philadel phia newspaper, commends the antl-loaflng laws and ordinances and suggests compulsory employment for all boys out of school. Most sensible people will endorse tbls paragraph: In the light of all this experi ence. is it not regrettable that the recently enacted anti-loaflng laws do not include in their sweep all boys over fourteen, as well as men past twenty-one? But surely It is not too late to add a clause which will include every boy in the country over fourteen, except ing. of course, boys still at school. Even these, however, might well devote a portion of the vacation period to the service of their country. After this week there will be hun dreds of boys on the streets, and there ought to be a place of useful employ ment for everyone. This is no time for loafers —men or'boys. To-morrow night, in the hall of the House of Representatives, a great patriotic demand for a war to the finish —the finish of the Hun—will be voiced through the League to Enforce Peace. Some Capitol Park, brother! But Pennsylvania doesn't do things In the little way. "PtKKOijttfaxla I By the Ex-Commttteeuan While the Republican leaders of Pennsylvania are meeting in Phila delphia to-day to organize their state committee for a campaign that will be as decisive in election of a state ticket as the recent primaries were in nominating it and to hear their national chieftain, the leaders of the rival factions of the Keystone State Democracy are in conclave pre paring for a bitter struggle for con trol of the state machine. The con- „ trast between the two organizations is very striking. The conditions pre vailing are indicative of what will happen in November. The Republican meeting will be addressed by National Chairman , Will H. Hays, a progressive; Senator William C. Sproul, Senator Edward -' E. Beidleman and their colleagues on t the state ticket, will be present and ( men of the elements which were lately locked in a hot party struggle 1 will be together. J. Denny O'Neil. \ State Highway Commissioner, and a opponent of Senator Sproul, left here last night to attend the meeting. a —The situation in the Democratic s party is remarkable for storm sig- j nals. It is the most exciting outlook since the days of 1911 when the Pal mer-McCormlck crowd put them- t selves into power by throwing out i men who in turn routed them at the primary last month. The present con trolling bosses declare that Judge t Eugene C. Bonniwell is only one of ' six nominees and that while he may 1 name the chairman he must end 1 there. Judge Bonniwell and his fol- 1 lowers assert that the popular vote t in the Democratic party last month I demonstrated that the party needs a 1 change of leadership and that the re- s organization bosses must undergo re- < organization. ' —The meetings in Philadelphia < and Pittsburgh will be preliminary i to the assembling of the Democrats t here next Tuesday for the state com- ] mittee meeting on Wednesday. < —The lovely Democratic situation i is thus summed up by the Phila- 1 adelphia Record, the big Democratic ] organ: "A third party ticket, with ] Judge Eugene C. Bonpewell at the head, loomed up yesterday as the'l result of the brazen attempt made I i here on Tuesday by a small group of | ■ near-Democratic chiefs, led by Na-. i tional Committeeman A. Mitchell j Palmer, to prevent the gubernator ial nominee from conducting a suc-i cessful campaign. Although the! Democratic state committee meets i next Wednesday in Harrisburg, it : is certain that the delegates will i : have no voice in the business of the! conference if the Palmer-Guffey plans are carried out. —"Ex-Congressman J. Washington j Logue won the nomination for lieu tenant governor over Howard O. i Holstein by only 210 votes, but he ! has been persuaded by Palmer and I Guffey to embarrass Judge Bonni well by remaining on the ticket. The alleged leaders also selected George H. McLean, of Luzerne, for state chairman, without even learning Judge Bonniwell's views concerning the slated man. —"lt is certain, however, that the Palmer-Guffey-McCormick outfit will have no voice in the framing of the platform upon which Judge Bonni well will conduct his fight. Last night the nominee entertained at his home ! two Democratic candidates for Con gress-at-Large and several friends." ! —The county committee of the always interesting Democratic party i | in Schuylkill county was reorganized! ! at Pottsville yesterday by the elec tion of Dr. L. C. Robinhold. of Au burn, as county chairman. Dr. Ro binhold is a member of a family which has long been prominent in county politics. He will have as his assistants M. J. Fleming, of Tre mont, and A. P. Tabor, of Shenan doah. —Republicans polled 532,087 of the 717,856 votes reported cast in the primary of May 21, according to of ficials of the State Department and the statement of the total vote polled in Bedford county is expected to in crease this figure according to of ficials of the State Department, who have been working on the official computation. This is stated to be ; the largest number of primary votes known. 1 —William C. Sproul, who received j 353,711 votes had 203,252 votes over J. Denny O'Neil and also won the . Washington party nomination. Mr. s O'Neil was the Roosevelt Progres sive party choice because he got its ■ 11 votes. He will withdraw. Sen , ator Edward E. Beidleman and James F. Woodward are also Wash l ington party nominees for the offices to which Republicans nominated them, while Fred E. Lewis was 1 nominated for secretary of Internal affairs on the Roosevelt Progressive 1 ticket. 3 The official count was finished to day and the totals checked and is -5 sued. —Governor Martin G. Brumbaugh, who has been reported as having picked upon a western Pennsylvania 1 attorney for supreme court justice, r declined to make any statement - about the matter to-dky. Reports - that an appointment was Imminent t were heard, but nie Governor had , nothing to say. Neither would he discuss the appointment to the va cancy on the Public Service Com mission. which it is understood the commissioners wish him to fill as s soon as possible, or the vacancies on t the State Board of Public Charities.

HURLET, chair man of the United States Ship ping Board, in an address this week declared that in 1920 America will have a merchant marine of 25,000,000 dead weight tons. He said: "Paradoxical as it may seem, the fact is that during the years when Germany was making her vast mili-! tary and naval preparations, hjer [ businessmen were engaged in a sys- ] tematic propaganda to cultivate good will abroad for German products. l Germany's businessmen knew well I enough that among their best cus-! tomers were the United States, Eng-j land, France, Italy and Russia. But] they were assured that the war would be short and Won by a quick rush of overpowering forces. They had thought they could localize the con flict without Great Britain coming in. and they did not have the faintest idea that events would bring the United States and many other coun tries into the war. "Their theory was that a speedy victory would enhance their prestige. But what is the result? "The result is what might have Justice For Gen. Wood [The New York Times] "Oh, Mr. President," exclaimed Senator Johnson, "the cruelist thing ' in all this world is the humiliation , of a brave spirit. If it were neces- i sary to humiliate a brave spirit as 1 Leonard Wood was humiliated, for J the love of God ought not the people of the United States to be told of it? I criticise no man: lam saying naught of hostility to any Adminis tration; I recognize the right of the Commander-in-Chief to select whom soever he pleases for official com mand; but there is one thing that the American people have a right to ask at this juncture, one thing that I have a right to ask and every other man has a right to ask whose j blood is in France to-day, and that I is, why do you keep out of the fight- i ing line a man whom we believed to be a soldier of ability and intre pidity, a soldier who could render valiant service in this hour? In ask ing that, I do not ask that he be permitted to go; I do not ask that any decision be changed, but I say in this democracy of ours why should not the people be entitled to some explanation? "And I say further, without the possibility of contradiction of the facts, yiat to-day there is not a gov ernment upon the face of the earth that would treat its ranking Major General or its former ranking gen eral in the fashion that General Wood was treated, without an ex planation to its people. "I iterate and reiterate that I am indulging in no hostile accusation or criticism. I ask, just as I have a right to ask, that when an extra ordinary order of this kind is made when a brave spirit be humbled at the very time that he expects to go across the water and fight for his nation that there be forthcoming to the American people some kind of explanation." Negro Troops Fight Well [Philadelphia Inquirer.] It is not only the marines who are fighting well on the French front. Owing to a relaxation of the censor ship we are getting some informa tion as to our units in the fighting. It is known that the Rainbow Divi sion of National Guard troops, com posed of regiments from various states, has been heavily engaged as i disclosed by casualty lists. It is further known that some of the old • Regular Army colored regiments i have been fighting and have ac quitted themselves well. Early this spring two colored soldiers were dec orated by the French Government, which has not the slightest prejudice in the matter of color, since it has i used many thousands of African s troops from Tunis and Algiers. 1 Experience Teaches ) The Kaiser knows better this time; t he hasn't ordered another dinner to ' be served in Paris at a specific date. —Savannah News.

They brought about the isolation of the German empire from the rest of the world. They multiplied the number of na tions fighting against Germany be cause they refused to recognize, or to permit their people to recognize, the inherent selfishness and cruelty of their cause. They caused the ma terial forces of the rest of the world to be vitalized against them. "Out of the clearly expressed fears of some of the German businessmen; fears expressed publicly and which only recently have reached this coun try—there can be found ample proof of the causes of war and the possi bility of applying a cure in the future. "A writer in the Vossische Zeitung recently said that Germany "will still be suffering want when those of the Entente have returned to, compara tively speaking, normal conditions. Our industry will be at a standstill, while that of our opponents will be running full time. The industry of the Entente will, therefore, be first upon the markets of the world'." The Two Parties Now t [From the Ohio State Journal.] ( If there is any politics in this war } period it will not be the fault of the Republicans. They will do every thing they can to keep politics out of the fight, and they sincerely pray that the Democrats will do the same thing. It is fortunate for the coun try that the Democrats are in power, for the Republicans can be just as loyal to the country under a Demo cratic President as they would be under a Republican. And they are showing it now. In a long article in The Forum Senator Smoot said there had been more opposition to Presi dent Wilson's ideas from the Demo crats in Congress than from the Re publicans. So, if there is really any partisan question just now, it is which party has been most faithful to the President. Some day this question will change, but it will not be by the Republicans while the war lasts. Praying and Believing [Washington Times.] At a gathering of citizens, which crowded the board room of the Dis trict Building, it was determined last night to inaugurate a daily mo ment of universal prayer in the Capital. The noon hour was settled upon as the time when the ringing of bells should summon all to a devout thought and a supplication for strength and success for our govern ment and our men in arms and our allies. Some of us are going to find our selves a little rusty in our suppli cations. The prayers out* mothers taught us have grown a little in definite in memory and indistinct in form. This, however, should not prevent any person from joinjng in this pub lic and universal appeal for those things which are for the greatest good of the whole world. Christ speaking to his disciples at Jerusalem as chronicled in Matthew xxi: 22, said: "Whatsoever ye shall ask n prayer, believing, ye shall receive." In this daily prayer let us bear in mind the word "Believing;" and seek, knowing that we shall find. GENERAL WOOD'S FATE [From the Detroit Free Press.] The fate in store for General Wood still remains obscure. He has had an interview with the President, and many rumors have resulted there from, but meantime he has "gone back west" after taking a half tear ful leave of the division he hoped to lead overseas. General Wood is a capable officer with a genius for organization. He is liked by the men in the army and he has the confidence and admiration of the country. If Woodrow Wilson, commander in-chief of the armies of the United States, with power of appointment and assignment of all officers, will in ' the near future give General Wood a place commensurate with his posi tion and ability, he will perform an action that will have the unqualified approval of the whole Nation.

Brunner, the distin guished architect who was here this week In connection with his plans for the beautlflcatlon of Capitol Park, has the idea of making the Capitol the center of the state, as far as highways go, as it Is the govern mental center. During his visit here he made a number of automobile trips about the city and Its environs and then asked for a map showing the state highways. "Why, it's a regular web with Harrisburg aa a center" said he. "Well, that will make the Capitol Park something to which all roads will lead In truth." Mr. Brunner, who yesterday com pared th Capitol Park project to a double handled frying pan, says that State street is admirably adapted to 'be a center of travel. "It is a mag nitlcent highway and well named," said he. "But I think that there should be a bridge across the Sus quehanna at State street and it should be the place where the roads on the other side of the river should converge. That, however, is a mat ter for the future. That bridge would form one handle of'the pan. The other handle would be the bridge to the top of the Hill, the Capitol Park with its garden being the center." • • • Few people have any Idea of the magnificent scale on which the archi tect who made Cleveland and Denver famous for civic centers is planning the Harrisburg development. He told friends here yesterday that it was his idea to make it the finest state park in the country and that he had the material to do it. Mr. Brunner in working out his ideas has been indulging in what he calls "dreaming." In the course of this employment he goes to various cities and studies the layouts. Then he drops into Harrisburg and applies them and goes away to dream out, as he savs, the details. "The bridge to the top of the Hill" said he "was one of the things which struck me as essential to compfcte the park. It certainly should be taken up promptly." When M. S. Hershey, millionaire chocolate manufacturer, learned of the action of the conference of Brethren at Hershey, pledging loyalty to the government, he did not attempt to conceal his jubilant spirits. "I'm tickled to death," he told a Harrisburg Telegraph re porter, and there was a broad grin on his face as he boarded his huge white automobile and started on his daily inspection tour of the plant. Mr. Hershey was doubly pleased be cause it was through his efforts the action was carried through. In b. rousing patriotic appeal before at least 10,000 people Sunday morn ing he stirred the conference to ac tion and more than $2,000 was raised for the Red Cross. "I've never heard anything better in my life, than this news," was his comment. While speaking of Mr. Hershey it might be well to say that while he is the founder of "chocolate town." he Is quiet and unassuming. When he appeared on the convention hall platform Sunday morning, it was the first glimpse many people of the town had of him. "Why that s the man who helped me across the icy street last winter," a gray-halrem woman said. "Gracious sakes! I never thought it was M. S. Hershey. Many comments were heard on nis modest appearance. But he made dollars talk for him. contributing a dollar to match each dollar contri buted for the Red Cross. • • • From all accounts the attendance at the Ringling show on Tuesday was a record breaker and it is astonish ing the small amount of damage done to nearby properties. Gener ally when a circus alights any place there is more or less harm done to garden plots in-the vicinity. The East End, where the circus dis played, has numerous "war gar dens" and very few of them suf fered to any extent because of the crowds. There was one large po tato patch near the "main top ' and it was virtually unharmed. while smaller patches had paths worn around them. The damage done, averred one man, was less than when the French flier landed out that way. • • • It is alwavs interesting to watch the people who go to circus grounds after a show. They have basket* and what they gather up Is worth while. A good many small pieces of money were found, but such statis tics are naturally unavailable. But there were knives, doorkeys, garters, handkerchiefs, gloves, hat pins and buttons among the articles salvaged. • • * •E. Clark Cowden. the engineer, says that in spite of reports about some Paxtang flickers that changed their hours of banging against tin roofs to meet the requirements of daylight saving there is one which holds to his old schedule. This flicker starts in at 6 o'clock in the morning. He has been doing it regularly for some months and he does not vary two minutes. He has become so proficient that he can play tunes on the roof. \ WELL KNOWN PEOPLE —Senator Charles H.
