Camp Colt Men to Show
City on July 4th How
Machine Guns Work
Great Program of Sports Prepared For Independence Day;
Seven Band Concerts to Furnish Music
Fifty soldiers from Camp Colt will
be in Harrisburg for machine gun
and bayonet work on Island Park
and lieservoir Park as a part of
the big Independence Day celebra
tion in Harrisburg, members of the
stunts committee announced after
their meeting at noon to-day.
Arrangements of the stunts com
mittee to make their share of the
program a large and interesting one
are moving smoothly forward. They
announce that a program of athletic
sport will be rendered in the after
noon on Island Park, to include a
relay race, tug-of-war, and a free
for-all five mile race for men over
eighteen years old. The race will
start on Island Park, will continue
up Front street for two and one
half miles, when the runners will
retrace their route. Suitable prizes
will be awarded in these contests.
A baseball game on Island park
in the afternoon between several de
partments of the Central Iron and
Steel Company will likewise draw
many persons. At Reservoir Park
in the afternoon folk dances will
form an important feature on the
program. It is planned to have as
many foreign born citizens and aliens
as possible participate in the dances.
Seven Concerts
Seven band concerts "to be held
simultaneously throughout the city
have been arranged tor the after
noon by the committee. Other band
concerts will be held in the evening.
The stunts committee is making
other arrangements for its share of
the program which It is not yet ready
to announce.
Although Independence Day is
still over one and one-half weeks
away, bodies that intend to partici
pate in the parade of that day are
making arrangements for their part
of it. The employes of the Kraus
Cigar Company. Incornorated. South
Cameron street, are drilling three
times each week for one-half hour
at noon that they may present a
creditable appearance in the July
Fourth pageant. One hundred and
twenty employes of this concern,
led by X. Isaacs, superintendent,
will be in line. The girls will wear
white dresses and will carry red,
white and blue parasols. White
suits will be worn by the men who
will carry American flags.

Enemy Abandons
In Effort to Escape
[Continue*! from First Page.]
to-day at a time when Italian artil
lery and machine guns began to open
up on the retiring Austrians, who
were struggling knee-deep in mire.
The Italian cavalry took part in the
pursuit, harrying the fugitives.
As the Austrians were pressed by
the Italians they threw away their
guns and equipment. They even left
on the Montello sacks of bread,
canned meat and preserves which
Austrian aviators had brought to
them.
Victory
The Austrians crossed the Piave on
lafts and boats which they had
brought up or had prepared during
the darkness on Saturday night.
They had abandoned well built
trenches, great quantities of ammu
nition, of blankets and every variety
of army equipment.
An Italian staff officer from the
Jighting zone exclaimed as he ran
into the Italian army headquarters
to-night:
"Victory is ours! We have put
the enemy across the Piave all the
way."
The victory is considered by mili
tary officials better than that of the
Austrians on the Bainsizza plateau
last fall.
Cruelly harassed by stady and
accurate artillery fire, compelled to
face bayonet attacks by the Italians
and being constantly bombed by al
lied aviators, flying low it\ defiance
of machine gun and antiaircraft fire,
the Austrian* have been fighting re
cently with the courage of despair.
Local counterattacks have been
launched without regard for losses
against the allied trenches on the
Montello plateau but have been
everywhere broken by the granite
resistance interposed by the foe's
progress.
The crest of the Piave river floor
passed yesterday, but the falling
waters came too late to relieve the
positions of the Austrians. The in
undation was sixteen feet above the
low water mark.
Along the lower Piave, Italian
pressure has been constant. The
tired enemy has been given no rest,
although the fighting has been in
termittent, owing to the fact that
neither side has been able to see
more than fifty yards through the
heavy brushes and tall swamp grass
es. growing in the lowlands.
The heroic deeds of the Italians in
the fighting upon the Carso plateau,
east of Isonzo, are recalled by the
repeated examples of valor and en
durance shown in the present strug
gle. With the Italian armies along
the front there is only a stern inten
tion to do or die. There is no effer
vescent boasting, no victory chants,
but a realization that harder fight
ing may yet come.

Plan Much Music
The finance committee reports
gratifying: results in its work to
date. Ten thousand dollars is the
goal set by this committee as the
sum representing an amount ade
quate for the proper caring for the
many features of the program. This
may be considered an exorbitant
sum by some, committeemen say,
but they will consider it more
reasonable when it is considered that
many bands will participate, thirty
four having already signed up. Band
expenses have mounted lately due
to the increased railroad fare. Then
with the extensive arrangements that
are being made by the stunts com
mittee for their share of the pro
gram. every cent of the SIO,OOO
will be put to a good use, the com
mitteemen announce.
The purpose o/ all the arrange
ments. committeemen say. is to
unite into one composite mass, the
entire populace of the United, na
tive born, foreign born citizens and
aliens, and to stir up within them
some of the patriotic fervor in ex
istence in foreign countries that the
country may do its share for its
sons who have taken up arms in its
behalf.

Emperor Wants Premier
to Guide Public Minds
While He Feels Pulse
By Associated Press
Amsterdam, June 24.—Emperor
j Charles, says a Vienna dispatch, has
| reserved his decision regarding the
; resignation of the Austrian cabinet.
! In the meantime, he entrusts Pre
mier Von Seydler with the further
direction of affairs.
"As it is my intention, while firm

A Vienna dispatch to the Eokal

] net. which will remain as constituted
except probably for the Polish min
ister, Herr Von Twardowski, who
will retire. It is problematical, how

ROME CONFIDENT
ALLIES CAN END
WAR THIS YEAR
Germans Thoroughly Awake
lo Critical Conditions in
Starving Austria
By Associated Press
Washington. June 24.—Confidence
at Rome that the war may be
brought to a victorious close this
year, if the allies give the Italians a
full measure of support in the offen
sive which has been launched
against the Austrians is reflected in
official wireless dispatches received
to-day from the Italian capital.
The Germans are said to Vie thor
oughly awake to the probability of
a complete collapse of the Austro
llungarian government, already
struggling with a half-starved and
riotous people In the event of a com
plete Austrian rout at the hands of
the Italians. Realization of this fact.
Rome believes, has caused the Ger
man general staff virtually to sus
pend if not to abandon its great of
fensive in France, as has been evi
denced by the comparatively quiet
for the past week.
Rushing Help From France
German soldiers are being rushed
by rail to the northern end of the
Austrian-Hungarian battle lines for
the purpose of restoring the Austrian
morale and not only checking the
Italian counterattacks by force of
numbers. breaking through the
mountain passes into the plains of
Venetia.
With such help as the entente
armies can give immediately, supple
mented as rapidly as transportation
<-an be had by troops directly from
America and. even more Important,
'>y ample military supplies ana food
for the army, the Italian general
staff is reported to be convinced that
the victorious sweep of the Italian
aimy will traverse the famous Bain
sizza plateau—the scene of the great
battles of last fall—and will not stop
until the Italians have reclaimed all
of the country up to the right bank
of the Isonzo. which marked the ex
treme of General Cadorna's advance.
Hope is expressed here that a sub
stantial part of the Austrian army
will he destroyed and that the force
which escapes will be so greatly de
moralized as o be useless for offen
sive purposes for months to come.
Officers here feel that the Italians
should content themselves with in
flicting all possible damage upon the
ictreating enemy and should not now
seek to extend their lines to the
other side of the Piave.
They think the situation would be
satisfactory if the Plave line Is
firmly re-established. At the same
time there are many military offic
ials, both American and Italian,
who have always contended that the
road to victory lay through Italy.
These officials have been hopeful
for the launching of a counter of
fensive by General Foch in Italy for
that reason.
There is speculation here as to
how General Foch may deal with
this situation. Unitey of command is
counted upon to prevent another
such catastrophe as that which fol
lowed the first great Austrian offen
sive. and. as the Germans move
southward to aid their tottering al
lies, allied soldiers may be on their
fay to further strengthen the re
juvenated Italians.
Presbyterians Quick to
Answer Camp Appeal;
Service Was Halted
During the services of the Market
Square Presbyterian Church yester
day a considerable sum was sub
scribed for the work of the Presby
terian Church at Gettysburg. This
congregation is giving special atten
tion to the Presbyterian boys in the
Army camp on the battlefield.
The United States Tank Corps,
with headquarters at Camp Colt, now
has its own weekly newspaper, ap
propriately named Treat 'Em Rough.
The Tank Corps has had a rapid ex
pansion, so that at the present time
Camp Colt, where active training is
in progress, numbers 9,000 men.
Wi.liin a very short time this force
will be doubled.
The pastor of the Presbyterian
Church atGettysburg asked the con
gregation through a letter which the
Rev. Dr. George E. Hawes read at
the morning service, for SSO for the
camp fund. The regular order of de
votions was suspended while a mo
tion for a special collection was
passed and the elders told to collect
at the doors after service. At the
evening service it was announced '
that sll7 in cash and twenty-six
talking machine records had been
subscribed.

P. 0. S. of A. Will Destroy
German Publications
Philadelphia. June 24.—The burn
ing of a history of Germany written
by a German author found recently
in the library of Palmyra Camp of
the P. O. S. of A. has received the
sanction of all the camps of the
state, which will continue the cru
sade against German literature and
pro-German propaganda in any
language.
Gabriel H. Moyer, state president
of the order, voiced the sentiment of
the organization when he said:
"After witnessing the destruction of
this German language history of a
nation that has brought upon the
world its present suffering, we can
visualize the destruction of all Ger
man publications which may be
found in the territory over which
Old Glory floats."

One's Income
In addition to the improved war
aspect, there are sound economic
1 reasons at home why stocks
should be purchased. To begin
I with, we are in days of great in
flation in our monetarv svstem
i whereas the supplies of stocks
have not been increasing. We
] further have between twenty to
twenty-five millions of people in
1 this country who have been intro
| duced to Wall Street through the
I finest kind of investment—The
Liberty Bonds.
The first three Liberty Bonds
have already totaled in excess of
$12,1100,000,000, and as these Lib
erty Bonds are practically the
same as money in market commit
ments, it is reasonable to presume"
that present market prices for
seasonable securities are about as
low as they can be expected to go.
It would seem advisable, then!
that non-dividend paying active
securities should be put to work
to pay their way. The service of
