HUNS DECLINE TO
RAID NEAR SOMME
By Associated Press
With the British Army in
France, Aug. 19. —Fighting by
patrols, during the course of
which the British lines on the
Somme front are being continu
ally pressed forward slightly day
by day. continues. There have
been no counterattacks against
the new British positions for
three days.
German officers and men taken
prisoner seem unanimous in the
opinion that a decision cannot be
won on the battlefield, but that
peace must be arrived at by ne
gotiation.
German deserters who came
over to the British lines say that
just before they left their line
volunteers to go on a raid for
the purpose of obtaining identi
fications were called for. They
were offered 150 marks, fourteen
days' leave and Iron Crosses, but
not a single man volunteered, the
deserters assert.

ißed Cross Benefits by
Sale of Salvaged "Junk"
Miss Knabe, of the Harrisburg

Cross some forty-three pounds of tirf I
foil. Some of this she secured her
self but much of it she obtained „by
interesting all the employes around
the office in the matter. The chair
man c£ the committee, Mrs. Mabel
C.-onise Jones, sold this tinfoil to
day for the Red Cross together with
i some additional thirty pounds con
-1 tributed in small bulk by a score of
I persons. Miss Knabe is starting on
another accumulation of the tinfoil
i now. Mrs. Jones also sold to-day
. seine glass, metal and old batteries.
' C. Ross Boas also took some bits of
ster'.'ng silver and Wolf Freedman
was another purchaser. Just Inside
the door of the basement to the Pub
lic Library is a large box in which
i donations of all kinds may be
' placed. While the committee dispos
! Ed of almost all that it had on hand
j to-day, it expects to have the box
1 full soon for other sales. Metals of all
! kinds, rubber, glass, and hair may
j be placed in the box. There are also
some individual pieces of silver do
nated that are on sale and can ba
seen In the Red Cross rooms.
MARRIAGE ALONE
WILLNOT EXEMPT
[Continued from First Page.]
Scientifically trained experts, how
ever, are needed and education of
such men must be continued to an
extent. Men injured in the war will
be sent to colleges after they recov
er, the Secretary explained, and thus
to some extent till up academic in
stitutions. Regarding present exemp
tion of divinity students, he said,
their draft for army chaplains is be
ing urged.
The department's plans, Mr.
Baker said, are to call all the young
er men by the middle of next year—
but substantially after the school
year is through.
General Crowder interjected that
the new program is expected to raise
2.300,000 men by June 30. 1919, and
that it is proposed to call 2,000,000
men by that time.
Xcod Every Man
To put eighty divisions of Amer
icans in France before June of 1919,
General March emphatically de
clared:
"We will need every single man in
Class 1 between 18 and 45. We must
not delude ourselves with the idea
that those in the 18 and 19 calls are
going to be deferred any length of
time. They will have to be called
early next spring in order to get their
training in time to get to France."
To Rush Transports
General March read an official
statement showing that on August 1
the American army numbered 3,012,-
112 men, divided as follows:
American expedition force and en
route overseas, 1,301,742.
In the United States and insular
possessions, 1,432,706.
Called in the August'draft, 277,664.
In addition there are about 15,000
marines serving with the expedition
ary force.
For the present it is planned to
send 250,000 men monthly to
France, General March stated, add
ing:
"But we hope to increase that in
the spring."
Germany Is Preparing
After-the-War "Kultur"
With the French Army. Aug. 19.
A German order recently found on
the battlefield requests the different
units to furnish lists of officers and
men who have shown aptitude in the
gas section and "desire to continue
in that service after the war."
The order invites even mutilated
soldiers whose infirmities do not in
[ capacitate them for this work to
send in their names.

ARMY MEDICAL
FILM SHOWN HERE
Remarkable Picture Showing
Temptations to Which
Soldiers Are Subjected
Members of the Harrisburg Ro
tary Club, through the courtesy of
Dr. Hyman R. Wiener, a member, and
Isaac Silberman, representing the
United States medical moving picture
service, saw at noon to-day the gov
ernment's especially made picture,
"Fit to Fight," in the assembly room
of the Harrisburg Y. M. C. A.
The picture is designed to show
enlisted men and men subject to the
draft the dangers of liquor drinking
and social immorality to the sol
diers.' The film ought to be seen not
only by every soldier and prospective
soldier, but by every man and boy
over fifteen years of age in the whole
country. It is the most startling ex
position of the frightful results of
dissipation and the dangers which
attend the association of men with
immoral women that has ever been
put into lecture or picture form.
Never was the old adage "Be good
and you will be happy" better il
lustrated.
The picture does not bear descrip
tion. It is not intended for mixed
audiences as shown to-day, but it is
so well worth while, so graphic, so
instructive and at .the same time so
free from objection and so highly en
tertaining in some of its army life
portrayals that it ought to be made a
part of the preliminary instruction
given to all drafted mtn before they
are called into the service of the
country. It sjiould be made a re
quirement of the draft regulations
and unquestionably would go a very
long way toward eliminating many of
the evils pictured in the film.
Mayor Ketster and a number of
other' public officials were present as
especially invited guests to-day to
see the picture. ,

against Howard L. McDonnell, the
Littlestown tailor whose shop was
destroyed by fire at an early hour
last Monday morning, together with
Ave other properties in the center of
thnt town. The fire started in Mc-
Donnell's business place, following
an explosion of gasoline, immediate
ly after which a man was seen to
run down the street away from the
scene of the fire.
McDonnell was not seen for sev
eral hours lifter the fire, but when
he appeared at his place he found
some men tnking measurements of
his automobile in the working out
of some clues that looked suspicions,
lie at onco resented the implication
that he was responsible for the fire
and drew a revolver out of his pocket
and became ugly. At the instruction
of the district attorney he was placed
in the county jail on a charge of
carrying concealed weapons. State
police with other officials were at
once put on the case and the knowl
edge gained has evidently borne out
the early suspicions, for Sergeant
Campbell, of the state police has
brought the charge of argon against
McDonnell.
