GET PROGRAM
READY FOR BIG
Y.M.CA. OUTING
Chairman of "Stunt" Commit
tee Promises New Tricks
Tor Every Minute
There's a big time In store for all
men who attend the picnic of the
Harrisburg Y. M. C. A. next Thurs
day afternoon and evening.
The general committee, of which
P. T. Barnes is chairman, met yes
terday afternoon and perfected the
final arrangements. Reports from
members of the committee indicate
that probably fully one-third of the
members of the "Y" are planning to
attend this first picnic of the local
association.
The outing is to be held at the
farm of Harry Anwyll, at Inglenook.
Men who attend will meet promptly
at 12.30 o'clock at the central asso
ciation building. A "walk around"
will be had through Second and
Market streets to Front street, where
automobiles will be in waiting to
take the crowd to Inglenook.
Henderson stunt master,
promises some new tricks that will
be up-to-the-minute and make the
time pass quickly for those who do
not have the nerve to "join in."
On the sports program is an an
nouncement of "100-foot dash for
gout-ees." Physical Director Miller
declines to tell what this is, but
promises a prize that will be of great
BKRIUSBURG telegraph:
value to the winner. A volleyball
game will be played by teams from
the businessmen's gymnasium class,
and a ball game by picked teams.
There is good bathing and boating
(or those who enjoy these sports.
Dinner will be served at 6.30
o'clock. Prises will be awarded to
•winners in the games at the evening
campilre. Other attractions and full
information are given on the formal
announcements sent to members of
the association and many outsiders.
A tag, admitting a man to the whole
show, costs a dollar—and it will be
worth the price.

MAKEPAYMENT

Bankers Receive Certificates
For Issue to Big Cor
porations
The first issue of treasury certifi
cates of indebtedness of the United
States tax series of 1919, by means of
which individuals and business
houses can pay their next year's in
come taxes in advance and receive
interest until July 16, 1919. for the
amount they pay, is now being is
sued by the banks. It was announced
to-day.
Instead of the twice monthly Is
sue of short term certificates, .the tax
series of treasury certificates of in
debtedness are being issued the two
weeks beginning August 20. They
are issued in denominations of $5OO.
$lOOO, $5,000, $lO,OOO and $100,000.|

191$, until July 15, 1919. They are
Issued in the form of bearer certifi-1

They come due in time for the
payment of income and profit taxes
next year, and the certificates will be
accepted at par with an adjustment
of accrued interest under rules and
regulations to be prescribed by the
Secretary of the Treasury in payment
of the income and profit tuxes when
payable at or before the maturity of
tho certificates. By buying them now
businessmen prepare for the payment

for the purpose of buying the treas
ury certificates of Indebtedness of

heritance taxes, or graduated Income
taxes known as surtaxes, or excess
profits taxes or war profit taxes now
or hereafter Imposed by.the United
States upon incomes* or .profits of in
dividuals, partners, associates or
firms.
Where less than $5,000 worth of
the tax issue is held, the interest is
exempted from payment of the grad
uated income tax, excess profits and
war profits taxes.
The certificates do not bear the
circulation privileges, and are not
exchangeable for bond issues.
The right is reserved by the Treas
ury Department to reject subscrip
tions. or to reduce the amount of any
subscriptions.
The federal reserve banks, regular
fiscal agents of the United States
government, have been authorized
and urged to receive subscriptions
and make allotments in full in the
order of the receipts of applications
until further notice. All banks, more
over, will receive subscriptions for
the certificates. The transaction in
volves no profit for the banks.
Qualified depositaries will be per
mitted to make payment by credit
for certificates alloted to them for
themselves and customers up to the
amount for which each shall have
qualified in existing deposits, when so
notified by the federal reserve banks.

FIGHT ON DRAFT
AGES LAUNCHED
AT WASHINGTON
Republicans Lead in Charge
of Move to Unhorse the
McKenzie Rider
Washington, Aug. 23.—The new
manpower bill, extending the draft
age limits to eighteen and forty-flve
years, was taken up simultaneously
in both the Senate and House of
Representatives yesterday afternoon
in an effort to finally pass It by the
end of the week.
While the debate yesterday was
confined to the bill as a whole, the
fight was launched in both houses
over drafting men below twenty
years of age and over the antistrike
amendment designed to prevent the
use of industrial exemption as a
means of evading the draft.
The draft obstructionists In the
House, led by Representative Dent,
of Alabama, chairman of the House
committee on military affairs, and
Representative McKenzie. of Illinois,
author of the amendment directing
the President to call all of the regis
trants between twenty and forty-five
years of age before any men are
called below twenty years of age,
confined their efforts to-day to senti
m<*tal arguments against what they
termed "robbing the cradle."
In tho" Senate Senator Kirby. of
Arkansas, led a fight against fixing
the age limit below twenty-one years,
while Senators Reed, Wadsworth,
Chamberlain and New discussed at
length the antistrike amendment,
the abolition of all volunteering and
other phases of the measure.
Bilker Insists on 18 and 19
Secretary Baker, commenting on
the McKenzie amendment, said:
"According to General Crowder's
figures, it will not be possible to
have eighty divisions abroad by .Tuiy

nineteen year old men."
