8 YOUTHS OF 18 TO 20 TO BE CALLED LAST ONTHE LIST Men of Draft Age to Get Train ing Without Affect ing Status Washington, Aug. 21.—A favorable report was voted to-day by the House Military Committee on the adminis tration manpower bill. with an amendment providing that youths from 13 to 20 years of age shall be placed In separate classifications to be called Into mtlttary service after men from 20 to 45. Another amendment by Chairman Dent provides that the fact that a soldier has not reached -1 shall not bar him from a commission. A section added at the request of the War Department provides that men of draft age may be sent to col leges for technical training In uni form. without changing their mili tary status. The creation of the IS to 20 classi fication had been opposed hv General March before the committee on the ground that it would delay the draft and prevent the junior registrants from getting the required four to six months' training before being sent overseas. This amendment, adopted on motion of Representative McKenzie, Repub lican. of Illinois, will be opposed in the House by Representatives Kahn. Crago, and Greene of the committee, who have insisted that in such tech nical matters the military authorities should be upheld. These members served notice that they would fight on the floor for the elimination of the amendment. The amendment reads: I "Provided, however, that registrants of the age of 13 and not over 20 ] shall he designated as the 13 and shall be drafted subsequent to \ the registrants of 20 and over 20 years, and registrants of the age of IS years and not over 13 years shall be designated as the IS class and shall be the last called for service: those registrants above the age of 20 shall be called prior to the classes hereby' designated " Xo vote was taken in the commit tee on the work or fight amendment, i objected to by organized labor, which i was added to the bill as reported to the Senate. The amendment is cer-j tain to figure in House debate, how- | ever. Chairman Dent presented his re port immediately after the House convened ,-ind obtained unanimous consent to have it taken up to-mor row with rieht of way over all other business. He thinks it <san be passed by Friday. Consideration of the bill also will begin to-morrow in the Senate. Otani's First Act in Siberia Review of Yanks By Associated Press London. Aug. 21.

STRONGER MEN 'HOE LEAD They Have Nerves of Iron and Real Red Fight ing Blood Vital force is the material from which leaders in all walks of life are made, it is well worth getting and holding. The health and nerve of the athlete is what Nature intended every man and woman to have. The blood of an athlete is pure and red. a strong heart pumps and drives it through his body. No won der that every inch of his system is filled with energy and health, his nerves like iron, spirits high, hard tasks a pleasure and life one song of joy. A leading doctor says. "Everyone should feel this way. That if you are not red-blooded, are nervous, all run down and on your last legs, Tor you to build up your blood and nerves with exercise, fresh air. nour ishing food and nature's great pre scription. Phosphated Iron, a real blood and nerve builder." Then you will be there with vim nnd push to easily do the work that you now do on your nerves alone. He also says, "Phosphated Iron feeds the blood cells with iron and nerve force, and that leading spe cialists are now using it successfully all over the country, that it has sprung into almost instant popu larity with the better class of doc tors as one of the few remedies they can depend on to produce re oults."

By ,4sswtot*d Frets Jackson, Miss.. Aug. 81. —Defeat of Senator James K. Vardaman for the Democratic nomination for United States Senator from Mississippi by Congressman Pat Harrison In yester day's state-wide primary appeared assured early to-day on the basis of returns from all except fourteen of the eighty-two counties of the state. Representative Harrison on the basis of these returns had a majority of 5,691 votes over Senator Varda man and former Governor E. F. Noel, the other candidate. Tabula tions made here showed; Harrison 37.453 Vardaman 27.296 Xoel 4.496 More than state interest was mani fested in the primary owing to a letter written by President Wilson in which the President said he would consider the re-election of Senator Vardaman as "a condemnation of my administration by the people of Mis sissippi." General opinion is that the Presi dent's letter aided materially In the defeat of Senator Vardaman. Many of his former supporters in the rural districts refused to vote after the publication of the letter from Mr. Wilson declaring that they could not vote against the President nor against Senator Vardaman. Both Harrison and Xoel made their campaign on a "loyalty-1 to-the-Administration" basis. Sena-' tor Vardaman in his speeches de-, clared he had not been disloyal, but said he and the President "often dis-1 agreed." BALL NAMED FOR SENATOR By .Associated Press Dover, Del.. Aug. 21.—Dr. L.

"The United States Fuel Adminis tration huve thoroughly gone over the probable amount of anthracite coal that will be mined during the coming winter, and have allotted a certain tonnage to each state. The state fuel administrator In turn has made an allotment to each county. The county fuel administrator has in turn alloted each community a cer tain amount. "The Increase allotment for the state of Pennsylvania amounts to eighteen per cent. The Increase al lotment allowed Dauphin county by the state fuel administrator was twenty and one-half per cent. The Increase allotment allowed Harris burg. Pennsylvania, was twenty-six per cent, which would give Harrls burg 163,000 tons of domestic size anthracite coal. . "From all reports available to this committee, Harrlsburg never re ceived in the past more than 130,- 000 tons: so I feel that if shipments are made on this allotment.

U. S.

The article declared more than forty troopships fuready have been sunk. It con tinues. "If the Americans at the front are fighting well, that does not need ,c cause surprise, for It is the fine flower of American manhood which now is at the front —namely, the old Regular Army, plus about 40,000 of the most sturdy and most adven HARJUSBURG t£sl£|fr TELEGRAPH the necessity of economizing in ev ery way possible.

"However, last winter we had a very severe winter, and It was not only difficult for the railroads to properly handle the coal cars, but also most difficult for the coal deal ers to make deliveries on account of the deep snows. "I would, therefore, advise that the householders aj this time lay in a small amount of bituminous coal, briquets or wood, which would act as a reserve on which they could draw if we have a repetition of last win ter. "Very often last winter, for periods of two weeks, certain of our streets were so drifted with snow that no delivery wagons could enter same.

Not Supermen " s ° we set an aggregate of from .00,000 to 250,000 picked men, but once these are used up the picture will be altered, because they cannot be replaced." The Zeitung believes compulsory military service is widely opposed and is being evaded in the United States, and it builds hope on the slender basis that American casualty lists will increase this alleged repug nance. The article concludes with these arguments: "The Americans are not supermen militarily and less so than in other respects. America may rfiuild stand ard ships but she cannot turn out standard soldiers. "America has done more than many expected, even in America, but despite all surprises American ex pert opinion that the full weight of her military power will not develop before 1919 or even 1920 still holds good."

Cor porations which attempt to dodge war taxes by increasing their capital stock to cover surplus and undivided profits were warned to-day by Internal Rev enue Commissioner Roper that this would be of no avail since the capital invested in the business rather than the amount of outstanding capital stock is the basis for measuring tax able excess profits. Furthermore. the commissioner pointed out. "an increase in the amount of capital stock outstanding to cover such items as good will, value of patents, trademarks, copy right. etc., not previously capitalized, mujjt under the law be excluded in determining the invested capital of a corporation under the excess prodts tax law." Reports have reached the Revenue Bureau that lawyers and private tax advisers have solicited corporations to employ them to direct changes in organization which they claim will help the corporations to evade certain taxes.

Aug. 21.—Since the name "Yanks" for American soldiers has been officially approved by Gen eral March, its use is rapidly spread ing through the camps in this coun try. The name was given Americans by British troops, and was then adopted by the French.

Pauline Frederick Rises to Greater Heights in 'Fedora' PAULINE FREDERICK The success achieved by Pauline Frederick In her recent Paramount picture, notably "Tosca" and "Res urrection," was phenomenal. Her artistic portrayals of the exacting roles in these two great photoplays placed her upon a high pedestal in the estimation of her admirers. In her latest play, "Fedora," based upon the great masterpiece of Vic torian Sardou, which is being played at the Regent Theater today and tomorrow, she rises to greater heights than ever. "Fedora" is a wonderful picture of the Russian nobility, and Miss Frederick gives an extremely vivid portrayal of a'Russian princess of great wealth and beauty. It is a great love story with the scenes laid in Russia and Paris. There are sev eral highly dramatic scenes, full of thrilling moments, all of which tend to render the logical development of an extremely interesting story. horses are used to give the cavalry and other thrilling effects of the wild dashes over miles of territory. Cities were built up to be destroyed by tire. The total cost of the entire produc tion was in the neighborhood of $500,- 000. Five hundred costumers and seamstresses worked for three months to make the costumes worn by the people. Ten thousand yards of cloth were worked into the costumes worn by the wpmen, while 25,000 yards of white musiln were used up on the regalia of the Ku Klux Klansmen. And yet with all this a simple, human story of love and romance weaves through the vast spread of the action and grips the hearts of the audience. The narrative is filled with tears and smiles. A symphonic score accom panies the action and lends a potent force to the drama. f^AMUSEj^MENTSjiI MAJESTIC High Class Vaudeville. COLONIAL To-day May Allison in "The Suc cessful Adventure."
