INDIANA'S 'DRY'
LAW UPHELD BY
SUPREME COURT
Highest State Tribunal Votes
Four to One to Sustain
State-Wide Prohibition
Indianapolis, June 29.—The In
diana state-wide prohibition law was
upheld by the State Supreme Court
yesterday. The decision was four to
one. Judge John W. Spencer, of
Kvansville, casting the only dissent
ing vote.
The state has been "dry" since
April 2 last, when the "bone dry"
prohibition law took effect. The con
stitutionality of the law had been
disputed in the courts before that
date, but, pending the decision, the
law became effective.
The decision which reverses one
given by a county court at Evans
ville, which held the law to be un
constitutional, and sustains, in effect
a decision given at Gary, holding the
law constitutional, is expected to put
an end to the hopes of the liquor in
terests that the law would be set
aside.
Although the law compelled all
saloons to close, saloonmen had filed
applications for licenses in many
parts of the state, intending to de
mand them immediately if the law
was held to be unconstitutional.

Franklin Etter Now
in the Artillery Service
•Mr. and Mrs. George E. Etter have
had a letter this week from their
son. Franklin, who has been in the
American Ambulance Service on the
western front for several months. At
the expiration of his enlistment in
May ho took the examination for the
Field Artillery and lias been sent to
the French artillery school for fur
ther training. After the usual period
of instruction he will probably be
given a commission in the artlllerv
branch.
This is the same school where
Sergeant Albert H. Stackpole. also of
Harrisburg. was sent some time ago
for special instruction in artillery
work. It was a happy reunion when
the young Harrisburg soldiers met'
unexpectedly at the school in one of
the most delightful sections of
France.

Fireworks will be scare in the city
on the Fourth because of the order
of Mayor and Chief of Police Wetzel
prohibiting the sale of pyrotechnics,
in the suburban districts dealers are
required to take out an explosive li
cense before they can offer fireworks
of any kind for sale.
ACTIVITY NOTED
* IN RESIDENCES
More Sales in First Half of
1918 Than Known For Years;
Building Falls Off
Severe restriction of building due
| to war demands and increase of the
! population of the Harrisburg dis
i trict because of military, munition
| and transportation activities have
: .had the effect of producing the
| greatest movement in residential
properties known in real estate clr
c lesin this city in many years. It
is not confined to the smaller houses,
which have formed the. great bulk
of the transactions the last ten
years, but residences of the more ex
pensive class and even houses in the
business section available for con
version into apartments have been in
demand.
Observers of real estate in this
city the last six months declare that
in value of transfers of ownership
and in number of transactions the
record of the first half of 1918 will
probably be unequaled. Some say
that the latter half will be fully as
notuble. Harrisburg is undergoing a
transition such as occurred shortly
after the Spanish war and between
the Capitol Park extension, the ever-
Browing demand for houses with a
bit of ground about them and the
pushing of business from the three
centers which have been growing up
marked changes will be seen before
peace comes In Europe. The war has
brought recognition of Harrisburg's
value as a distribution point which
cannot fail to have a great effect
upon the future of Ihls city.
Permits Shrink
Building permits issued during
June at the office of the city build
ing inspector show a big percentage
decrease when compared with the
total cost of operations started in
June, 19X7. due to the fact that one
year ago the permit for the Penn-
Harris Hotel was Issued, adding
$760,000 to the total for that month.
Deducting the amount estimated
as the cost for the hotel, permits
weie issued for construction work in
June, 1917, to cost $32,805; while in
the same month this year work cost
ing $28,800 was started. The largest
permit of the month was for a one
story brick garage at 2 209 North
Seventh street, for the Atlantic Re
fining Company to cost SII,OOO.
The week ending to-day set an
other low mark, seven permits be
ing issued. The remodeling work
and small garages which are to be
built will cost $1,2 80.

HARRISBURG (MM* TELEGRAPH!
CITY AND STATE
OFFICIALS WILL
CONFER ON PARR
State Street Viaduct, Widen
ing of Streets, Etc., to
Be Discussed
Folowing a communication re
ceived from City Solicitor John
E. Fox to-day, George A. Shrelner,
superintendent of public grounds
and buildings, announced that
he will arrange a meetir.fr at
an early date of the mem
bers of state and city authorities in
terested in the Capitol Park develop
ment. The meetings will be ar
ranged just as soon as the various
members of the several boards and
commissions can be got together.
Mr. Brunner, the architect; Mr.
Greiner, the bridge designer and Mr.
Manning, the city's engineer will be
present as will members of city
council, the City Planning Commis
sion and the Board of Public
Grounds and Buildings.
City Solicitor Fox, who is an en
thusiast on the Capital Park devel
opment, lost no time in communicat
ing the resolution of council passed
last Tuesday expressing the willing
ness of the city to enter into an
agreement for the erection of a mon
umental bridge at State street and
to co-operate in every way possible
to hasten the completion of that
project, the widening of Third, North
and Walnut streets and the zoning
of Cameron street jn the vicinity of
the proposed State street viaduct to
prevent the erection of high build
ings on that thoroughfare in the
vicinity. Mr. Fox notified the board
that the city stood ready to co-oper
ate in every way and would agree
to the transfer of the Walnut street
bridge fund to State street, provid
ing the cost will not be more than
the $300,000 which the city has
available for bridge purposes. He
expressed the wish that a meeting
of the city and state representatives
could be arranged and Mr. Shreiner
undertook at once to arrange for
the meeting proposed.
PURPOSE OF PARADE
IS EXPLAINED
[Continued from First Page.]
which will stand in history as the
first reception tendered by native
born citizens of the United States
to the foreign-born residents among
us, whom it is hoped by this and
other means to so wholly American
ize. that they will hereafter recog
nize the Stars and Stripes as their
only flag.
Expense Not Heavy
"The trifling expense of this ef
fort. trifling in comparison with the
result, to he attained, is in every
proper sense an investment. Ex-
Mayor Bowman, than whom there is
no more patriotic or sensible citizen
in Harrisburg. has said, 'This is out
first reception to the foreigners, to
show that they are welcome among
us. Whatever we spend on this re
ception will be cheap from the
standpoint of a national investment,
and will inevitably come back to the
Government with a vast increase in
War Savings Stamps, Liberty Loan
subscriptions, and in contributions
i to the Red Cross an dthe T. M. C.
A.'
"Th? cost of the day's celebration,
less by far than the town usually
spends for futile fireworks; less than
half what it will spend on the same
day for tobacco burned and chewed;
not as much as it usually spends on
soda water and movies, amounts to
barely 10 cents per person for the
100,000 people who will thus have
opportunity to show that they value
patriotic expression to the extent .of
a bag of peanuts.
"The money for this parade has
been cheerfully given, and by per
sons and organizations who have
been most generous to all other
causes relating to the war. They be
lieve. as all must believe when the
facts come to be understood .that
without expression of ideals and
without a focuslng-point for that
expression, patriotism loses its force.
Show Splendid Spirit
"The finance committee has pro
vided enough money to see that the
procession is kept in cheerful march
ing condition through the presence
of sufficient bands, to serve also the
great evening meeting.
"It is a fine thing to note the
spirit of participation and patriotism
which has guaranteed the presence
of fully 13,000 industrial representa
tives in the procession, of great
throngs from commercial establish
ments, of solid ranks of the frater
nal orders and the patriotic and civic
organizations of the town.
"On Americanization Day, July 4,
1918, there properly can be but two
classes of bystanders who do not
participate. The first will include
the children, who are not permitted
to parade, and those who are physi
cally unable to make the march,
strong though their spirit may be
for the Americanization effort. The
second class will include those who
are helping the Kaiser by criticising
the President's ideals on the Ameri
canization of our whole complex
population, or who, while nominally
American, are of the class who
scolded at the expense of the oint
ment with which Mary annointed
the Saviour.
"As well expressed by John F.
Dapp yesterday, himself 'of foreign
birth, the great celebration to occur
next Thursday, gives an opportunity
to abolish the idea of any other flag
in America, than the American flag,
and a further opportunity to dis
cover who there are among our
American and foreign-born citizens
not wholly in sympathy with the
United States in its present war.
"The Publicity Committee"
Four patriotic mass meetings in as
many churches in Harrisburg will be
interesting features of the big Inde
pendence Day celebration in Harris
burg. The general committee in
charge of the celebration made this
announcement this morning. These
meetings will be similar to meetings
held for several years in Market
Square Presbyterian Church. They
will be held this year from 7 a. m.
io Ba. m.
The locations for three of the
meetings were announced this morn
ing. A meeting for the Allison Hill
people will be held in the Fourth
Reformed Church, Sixteenth and
Market streets: for downtown people
in Market Square Presbyterian
Church, and for uptown people re
siding above Maclay street, in Camp
Curtin Memorial Methodist Epis
copal Church.
Will Choose Lrxat4on To-night
The location for the meeting for
people of the uptown district, below
Maclay street, will he selected at a
meeting of ministers of that section
this evening. Patriotic speeches will
feature all of the meetings. The
names of the speakers will be an
nounced within several days by the
committee in charge of this work.
War Stamps As PHw*
War Savings Stamps as prlves .will
be offered for three classes of dec

TOO EARLY FOR
ARMY TRAINING
TO BE UNIVERSAL
Opposition Based on Fear of
Crippling Raising Many
Troops on Short Notice
Washington, June 29.—While se
rious consideration wilt be given by
the administration in the framing of
lcyislation relative to an increase cf
the military forces of the country,
to suggestions for universal military
training, high officials of the admin
istration decline to commit them
selves on this subject further than
to say that the most practical and
feasible plan for increasing those
forces-will be adopted and submitted
to Congress at a later date. It can
be stated without hesitation that the
administration is not on record as
being opposed to universal military
training in principle, but it has op
posed it since the country wont to
war as an interference with the nec
essity of raising large numbers of
troops on short notice. Apparently
the disposition to-day is to consider
the subject from the standpoint of
its effect n American industry at this
time when much of the available
manpower has already been sum
moned to the colors.
of the decorations committee, an
nounced this morning. They are:
To the alien-born resident of Har
risburg, including natuaiiized citizens
as well as those who have decided
to become citizens of the United
States, whose home is most taste
fully decorated, S2O worth, of Wat-
Savings Stamps.
To the American whose home is
most prettily decorated, sls in War
Savings Stamps.
To the proprietor of llie business
house or office building which is
most tastefully decorated, sls worth
of Baby Bonds.
"Thflse persons who propose enter
ing this contest for War Savings
Stamps are urged to call or other
wise notify the Chamber of Com
merce, so that the official viewers
may get their names and addresses,"
said Mr. Bennethum. These prizes
are open to home owners and busi
ness places not only along the line of
march,but in the entire city.
Sirs. John W. Reily, in charge of |
the Woman's Division, to-day an

munication with her, however, are
requested to report at once to the
Mayor's office concerning their plans.
500 From Ordnance Camp

Almost 200 of the questionnaires of
| the draft registrants of the 1918
class were returned to-day. All the
questionnaires are expected to be re
turned by the end of next week, as
the registrants must return them
within seven days after they receive
them.
Members of the legal advisory
board were in courtroom No. 1 to
| day helping the registrants fill out
their questionnaires. Very few of the
registrants are asking for deferred

the first hundred claiming deferred
classification.
