14 FRENCH SHOUT VENGEANCE ON CRUEL TEUTON Welcome Lille Deputies; De nounce Abominable Crimes of German- Soldiers I'arlx. Oct 23.—The Chamber of Deputies yesterday eiitliusiatleally welcomed Deputies Delory and Raglie -000111, of Lille, returning to their, seats after years in the hands of the Hermans. Amid an impressive si lence, M. Delory said: "It is impossible to denounce all the German crimes, but the most abominable was the carrying off of women and girls of 9 and lli by en emy soldiers, their enforced submis- | sion to medical examination and their J being obliged to work under French machine gun tire for the German I Army." 1 The chamber shouted its indigua- | tion One member cried: "We'll : teach our children that! We'll never' forget." Then SI. Delory resumed: 1 "The l.ens plains are nothing but an immense area of ruins with not ' one house intact. There cannot be a ' Frenchman who does not wish those | culpable chastised." SI. Kagheboom told how German j soldiers had insulted and violated Lille women, and how they forced 5- I year-old Children to work for them, j I'\KTIS\\SIIII> IS t'IIIRUKD Washington, Oct. 23.—Charges that] officials of the Great Lukes Naval I IP raining Station had denied repre sentatives of the Kentuck > State Re publican t'ampaign Committee the privileges accorded the Democrats | for getting in touch with Kentucky ] voters there and assisting them in . voting by mail were made in a tele- j gram read yesterday in the Senate by • Senator N'ew tlnd.).

Press dispatches to-day stating! that there would be three landing ; places for airplanes carrying I'ntled 1 Stales mail in Pennsylvania and two] in Ohio, tlie tirst three being Lehigh- j ) ion. Bellefonte and Clarion. led j i many people in this city to believe i Harrisburg would be left out in the I cold in the air-mail service. This,] j however, said Mr. Sites, would not i ' be the case. | Otto Praeger, Second Assistant j 1 Postmaster General, in a letter last j 'week to Postmaster Sites, virtually] ! assured the latter that Harrisburg ; will be on the map in large letters • ' when the route becomes an estab- I : lislied fact. In this letter, made] I public tfcpon its receipt by the post- I i master, Mr. Praeger asks the co j operation of the State Forestry Oom -1 mission in supplying a limited num- I iter of surveyors, timber men and j aviators for locating and mapping ! out a way of least timber resistance I along which the aerial mail route 'will lay in this slate. As Congress ! lias not yet appropriated any funds with' which to prosecute such work which is I lie tlrst step toward es tablishing landing places for the | j mail-carrying machines, Mr. Praegerl ] said that it must be undertaken ; with Hie co-operation of citizens in- j terested in aviation and its mail de- ; livery possibilities. Last week Postmaster Sites made l an effort to interview State For '< estry Commissioner Conklin apro i pos the matter but was unable lo do so. A meeting between the two, ! ' however, has been arranged for l j this afternoon, when the question 1 !pf state aid will be thoroughly! ! threshed out. "When the mail air line comes." ] said tlie Harrisburg postmaster this j j morning, "Harrisburg will surely be ' one of the ' tirst places to get it." j i Mr. Praeger. ho said, will come to 'Harrisburg if necessary, to confer | i with the slate officials about the! ! matter. Airplanes and Tanks Used by Chaplains Pari*. Oct. 23. —Airplanes and tanks j are being used by volunteer chaplains j land field secretaries with the Knights |of Columbus to serve the American ' soldiers over here. Two chaplains, tlie Rev. John Mor on. of Eugene, Ore., and the Rev. John Sullivan, of Tuckahoe. X. Y„ j were the first priests to make their rounds by the air route. The Rev. ! Mr. Sullivan uses airplanes several ! times a week and thus is able to visit field hospitals within a radius of i 200 miles of his camp, j Airplane transportation was used by the Rev. Mr. Moran for the first time when he received two calls to say Held masses one Sunday morning. | The call came front villages fifty miles apart Where troops were bil leted. An aviation pilot solvtqi the problem for Chaplain Moran by of fering to take him to both places and lie went. The result was a field mass at one village at 6 o'clock in the | morning and at another mass in the village fifty miles further on at 7.30 a. ni. The Rev. Edwin O'Hara, rector of ! the cathedral at Portland, a volunteer i chaplain for the Knights of Columbus, | used a tank to fulfill an engagement I to say mass to distant troops and a < secretary went with him to supply | the soldiers with boxing gloves and . baseball material for use after the | services. .

Robbins, Jr., general manager of the Steelton plant of the Bethlehem Steel Corporation, pamphlets have been issued to tlie employes of the plant outlining the system of employes' representatives in all matters pertaining to lubor problems thai may present them selves. The pamphlet introduces the subjeel under the head of "Princi ples of Representation:" "In,order to give the employes of the corn pan ya voice in regard to the condi tions under which they labor, and to provide orderly and expeditious pro-1 cedure for the prevention and ad justment of any future differences, and to anticipate the problem of continuous employment as it will present itself through trade fluctua tions and other conditions at the ter mination of the war, a method of representation of employes is to be established." A preliminary committee to make arrangements for the establishment of the system is to be appointed to morrow to meet immediately after lis appointment. Powers Curtainlcd According to the system eacli de partment of the Steelton plant is to elect a representative for'each two hundred employes or faction there of. No foreman or superintendent or party having the power to discharge is to have a vote in tlie election or to be eligible to act as a represen tative. To co-operate with these: representatives, the management will appoint representatives from among tlie managers and officers of ihe plant. These representatives will select from among their numbers commit tees of ten members, eopased of five employes' representatives and live managers' representatives, lo have jurisdiction in Hie following mat- j ters: Ways and means, safely and i prevention of accidents, practice,' methods and ecconomv, employe's transportation, wages, piece work, bonus and tonnage, employment and working conditions, busing, domestic ecconomies and living conditions, health bnd works sanitation, educa tion and publications, pension and relief, athletics and recreation, con tinuous employment and condition of nidustry. In order to vole a man must have been in the employ of tlie company for at least sixty days, and to be a representative must have been with the company at least six months. There are twenty-two departments in ihe Steelton plant which will be thus represented. Employes Represented W.' E. Chick, safety engineer of the plant named manager's repre sentative on the committee to ar range for the elections, which will be held October 21 for nominations, and November 4 for final election. Elec tions will hereafter be held every six months. This arrangement will give every employe good opportunity to bring to adjustment any grievance that he, may think lie has. the matter being brought tirst to the attention of the for settlement, and if : fail of -settlement there, it may lie brought to the committee of appeals and on through the management un til it reaches the attention of the president of tlie corporation. The whole matter si in line with the company's thoughtfulness and care for the welfare of its employes, and is full proof of the manage ment's desire to deal squarely and justly with those they employ. The management hopes that it may be the means of improving not only the conditions at the plant but bring about better housing conditoins and better sanitary conditions in the bor ough, the need of both of which is only too well proved by (he present epidemic. Influenza Epidemic Is Rapidly Declining The number of influenza cases is rapidly declining, and while the number of deaths is still large, there is every reason to believe that tlie crisis is over and the matter well in hand. Because of the shortage of volunteer workers at the emergency hospital, fourteen more state mili tiamen were brought here yesterday, and these, with the ten who have been here for some time, will re main on the grounds and will per form any duty to which they may be assigned. • Joe Cordenes At the emergency hospital early this morning, Joe Cordenes, a .Mexi can. of Locust Grove, died of in fluenxa. Joseph Rosa I' Joseph RosaY. a Mexican without kin In this section of the country, died at the emergency hospital yes terday afte'rnoon. Annie Tooliquick Annie Tochquick, of 601 South Third street, died at the emergency hospital early this morning. Joseph Dnrbinich Joseph" Durbinieh, of .730 Soutli Second streeL died this morning at his home with influenza. Burial will be made in Mt. Calvary Ceme tery. Mrs. Carnieatur Mrs. Carnieatur, of 325 South Third street, died this morning of Fills Stomach With New Energy Weak, Worn Out, Gassy, Sour Stomach Revived and Made to Enjoy Food With Stu art's Dyspepsia Tablets. Most of us eat three times a day and often forget that each meal should be disposed of in the stomach to make room for the next. The failure of the stomach to do this is called indigestion or dyspepsia, with its sour risings, gas, rumblings, pain, depression and t|le feeling of stuffi ness when breathing is difficult. The'fnost effective remedy and the most reliable one. because you can get it at any drug store in the United States or Canada, is Stuart's Dys pepsia Tablets, at 50 'cents a box. Instead of depriving youiseif of food or going on a starvation diet, sim ply keep on as you have and let these tablets straighten out your stomach digest the food and keep you In the fight. HAHRISBTJRG TELEGRAPH $170,500,000 ASKED FOR WAR WORK Sew lurk—The seven great war work relief organizations which un der the new, co-ordinated title "I'nit ed War Work Campaign" seek to cover all ground that the Red Cross ennnot cover must have $170,500,ot(0 j in order to continue their , welfare work. The organizations uniting in the appeal are the Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., Knights of Columbus, Jewish Welfare Board, War Camp Commun ity Service, American Library Asso ciation and Salvation Army.

C. A. ac companies American fighting men i from their induction into the service j up to the time that they march to Hie i battlefront and then remains with, tlietn. Every kind of service and task | that arises under these condition is I performed by the Red Triangle. And I besides its hut and canteen "work it suplies cheerfulness, comfort and hap- [ piness to hundreds of-thousands of j tired and homesick boys. V. W. C. A. tins "Homes* Houses" The Y. W. C. A.'s principal work is ; done in the big training camps here | in America, through the "Hostess i Houses." These centers elevate the tone of the camps, and protection is furnished to girls of the community as well as to the hoys of the Army. In the war zone the Y. W. C. A. is very active providing recreation lead ers, physical directors, cafeteria man agers. etc., for tho thousands of Am erican nurses, signal corps workers and other English speaking women employed with the American forces and for French women employed in munitions factories, war offices, stores I and factories. Tin- Blue Triangle maintains centers nnd restaurants for American women In overseas service. < The Knights of Columbus maintain I centers in all the American camps. They provide theatrical entertain- j luent .movies, literature, stationery, I games, athletic materials and lec tures. They maintain huts, where comforts are dispensed. They accom pany the soldiers of their faith from the time of induction into the serv ice to and through the period of ac tual fighting. They distribute tobacco, chocolate, soap, towels and other ar influenza, at the age of 47. Burial will be made in Nit. Oalvery Ceme tery.

Mrs. I Susan Bates of New Cumberland. ! ' After telling his mother that his I outfit hud been moved again, and were in a large railroad center which I the Germans were trying to raid Jby air. Private Bates. says in his |letter, which is doted September 1: "We are protecting this place with 'search-lights from the Huns who are continually trying to hontb it from the air. We are on duty all day and sometimes all night. We had several air raids this week and 1 think it is great sport to be out there at night with the Jerry ma chine flying over your head. When they're above us we get them in the arc from the searoh-light so tlie anti-aircraft guns can shoot at them. Sometimes they come down the benm and open up their machine iguns on you. it is nice to hear 'those bullets whistle around you j only I wish that we were nearer I the front lines than we are. We 'used to he twenty inilfes from the j front lines but since we have made jour big advances we are about I forty miles." Private Bates expresses bis thanks i that he is "able bodied enough to jdo my bit for Old Glory" and thinks I "that a Aug that is good enough to i live for is good enough to tight for and, if needs be, to die for." Mean while the young soldier is "trusting in the Lord" to bring, him safe home again. Private Bates has a brother. Ser geant George S.

Seventy-live buildings are used by them In France, and recently they sent 100 workers to Italy. Much use ful work is done also by the women's I committee of the Catholic War Coun- I ell in ministering: to the needs of the soldier and sailor. Similar work is done by the repre sentatives of the Jewish Welfare Board, which keeps an e>e on 100,000 Jews in the fighting- forces. It seeks especially to bridge divergencies be tween Jew and Gentile in the ranks, and it specializes on Americanizing young Jewish soldiers who had not been in touch with American ideals ior history. The American Library As ; sociation provides the books that the soldiers In France are so glad to gel, ! and it functions through its associate organizations In distributing the hun- i i dreds of thousands of books collected ! in the United States. Snlvntlon Army l'les Beloved i The Salvation Army, had It accom plished nothing more, has won a repu tation for its doughnuts and pies. These delicacies which the Salva- I tion lassies bake in the war zone and I serve free to the soldiers have become : famous around the world. Salvation ists have aided in carrying wounded I and attending them in dressing sta tions. In the restroonts of the Salva tion Army the American fighter over seas mav read American newspapers and books, find a homelike atmos phere enjov games and music and the beneficial' society of American women. The Army has supplied forty-four ambulances for the service of the Al lies and operates i>ol huts, hostels, restroonts and military and naval ho tels overseas. It has twelve centers iin American camps and proposes to build ten more. The organization has 1,210 workers overseas. ! In the big offensives of the Anteri ! can forces the Salvation Army's work ! ers have accompanied the soldiers. ; placing their automobiles at the serv | ice of the hospitul corps, removing the 1 wounded and ministering to the dying with material and spiritual comfort. In their appeal for $170,500,000 the seven organizations point with pride to the unstinted praise extended to them by all the generals of the Allied forces." All of them have more than made good.

Our answers to tho President's questions must be framed on the German people's understand ing of the question. What it now wants is clearness. To Oppose Violence at Home "The decision will be of stupen-j dous import. It will not be our j strength that will decide, but it will ■ be what is thought to be right In ! free discussion with our opponents: that will give the decision. This isi a great effort for a proud people ac-; customed to victory. The lcgnl qucs-, Hons involved will not stop at our 1 national boundaries which we will i ueter of our own accord, open fori violence. "The principles upon which wo' have agreed as a rule of conduct also involve internal questions. From many quarters it has been repre-| sented to me that an acceptance of President Wilson's conditions would' mean submission—anti-German sub mission—to an anti-German court j of justice which would decide legal questions entirely from the view point of its own interests. If that is tlic case, why then Is it the ex treme apostles of force in the En tente tear the council chamber as tlic guilty fear the court of justice?j Bitterness Foreseen by Chancellor "The essence of President Wilson's program for a leugue of nations can 'not he achieved when all peoples have not the right of national self- Idetermination. This realization of 1 [community law means the abandon ment of part of the unqualified inde | pendence which hitherto has been |the indication of sovereignty, both by us and others. Should we ut thome maintain as fundamental the [national egoism which until a short itime ago was the dominating force lof the people's life, there would be [no restitution und no renovation for jus. There "would be a feeling of blt [terness which would cripple us for j generations. i "But if we comprehend that the :significance of this frightful war is. [above all, victory for the idea of [justice, und if we do not resist this idea, but submit with all good faith, [then we shall find in it a cure for [our present wounds and a reservoir of future strength." I Prince Maximilian said -he would [not deny thut heavy opposition in [Germany must be conciuered before [the ideal league of nations could he realized, but he continued: J "Whether the next few days or I weeks shall call us to light on, or [open the way to peace, there is no [doubt we ure now equal to the task of either war or peace by carrying [out the government's program and i definitely breaking away from the [old system." Cites Bills Before Reichstag The imperial chancellor then dis cussed electoral and parliamentary 'reform. He cited bills before the I Reichstag, one of which enables [members of the house to enter the j government without resigning and 'another proposing a change in the OCTOBER 23, 1918. laws regarding the responsibility of the chancellor.
