6 BOROUGHS ASKED TO CO-OPERATE Bureau of Municipalities Wants Officials to Attend to Mains Before Paving Officials of more than 900 bor oughs of the State of Pennsylvania have been called upon to aid the State Highway building program by prompt attenUon to all sewer, water main and other piping matters so that streets will not have to be torn tip after the improvements have been made by the Commonwealth in a letter issued from the bureau of municipalities of the Department or l.abor and Industry. This is the first move by departments of the State government to co-operate with the highway branch in working out its program. In the letter issued J. Herman Knisely, chief of the bureau, says: "It is possible your borough may contemplate the paving of streets in which you will ask for State aid and if such improvement of >'°tjt streets is contemplated, we thought it desirable to call your attention to the rule lately made by State High way Commissioner Lewis S. Sadler, in "which he states that before the State Highway Department will pro ceed with the construction of per manent thoroughfares through bor oughs of Pennsylvania, agreements will be required with all the bor ough authorities, which will prevent the ripping of pavements. The de partment will insist that those agree ments be lived up to. For no less than five years after completion the pavement may not be disturbed, un less in case of extraordinary emer gency. Tho State Highway Depart ment does not propose to waste money. There can be no reason why the borqughs themselves, the corporations and private property owners cannot lay their sewers and mains of various sorts in anticipa tion of the paving. Old mines must be renewed if necessary.

Swedish Physicians Predict Epidemics If Germany Is Not Fed Stockholm, March Sl.—One re quest that America should send food to Germany was drawn up here by a delegation of medical scientists representing two hundred Swedish physicians who asked the American minister, Ira Nelson Morris, to for ward it to President Wilson. The petition was supported by the report of Professor J. E. Johansson, a nutrition expert, whoso investi gation of the German situation has been in progress since 1915. He de clared that tuberculosis in Germany has increased 100 per cent. Basing their argument on this statement, the Swedish doctors in their peti tion said serious epidemics might be expected to spread tlirougli the world from Germany unless food was soon supplied to the German people. Since the Swedish petition was presented to Mr. Morris, Germany lias agreed to surrender her mer chant ships to the Allies and the latter have promised to send food to Germany. K. of C.

NEWS OF THE LEGISLATURE STANDARD FOR LOAVES OF BREAD McConnell Bill Gets the En dorsement of the Master Bakers of the State Enactment of the Federal Food Administration regulations into a State law proposed in a bill pre sented by Senator William C. Mc- Connell, of Northumberland, has been endorsed by the State Associa tion of Master Bakers and represen tatives of the bakers of Harrisburg with the proviso that the clause in the bill that unwrapped bread shall be tagged with the weight shall be eliminated. The bill would require all bread to be sold by standardized loaves, the standard net weights to be set twelve hours after baking at three fourths of a pound, one pound, one and a half pounds, two pounds and other pound weights. Wrapped bread in any package must have the exact net weight printed or written plainly on the wrapper. Use of "any quali fying words or phrases" is illegal. Fines for violation of the law by sale of bread less than standards is $"5 fine for first offense, up to $lOO for the second and from $lOO to $2 50 for each subsequent offence. The standard sixteen-ounce or "pound loaf" now sells at ten cents and has been so selling since the food regulations went into force. Many bakers have sent word to the Bureau of Standards that they pre fer to keep on doing business by standardized loaves so that while prices may vary people may know how much bread they are buying. Senator McConnell's bill is in com mittee and will come out within a short time. The Senator also has ! on the calendar the dressed poultry bill which requires all dressed fowls ] to be sold with head and legs off and j entrails drawn .while t>* sales must; be by weight. Alany markets in the State allow dressed poultry to , be sold undrawn and tho cold stor age law permits undrawn fowls to | be stored. It is contended for this ; bill that it would standardize dress ed poultry.

Tr A nWBBDRG TELEGRSPH PROGRAM WILL BE OUTLINED Appropriation Measures Not Before Committee Will Go Back For Consideration The State appropriation program will commence to assume shape this week. The chairmen of the legis lative appropriation com' uttees will meet to outline a poli . in regard to allowances for buildings ..or State: hospitals and similar institutions, wholly under control of the Com-1 monwealth and in regard to some | increases asked by departments | prior to taking up the problems with the Governor. The fiscal of ficers will be asked to prepare their estimates and then the calculations will begin. This week a number of bills carry ing appropriations which were re ported out by committees without reference to the appropriation com mittee will be sent to the committee in charge of appropriations. One of the first will be that presented by Representative O. D. Stark, of Wy oming county, providing that any county bridge crossed by a State highway shall become a State bridge and be taken care of and rebuilt, if necessary, by the Stato Highway Department. This bill came out of the roads committee with $1,500,000 added to it. The bill was never in the appropriations committee and from all accounts Chairman W. J. McCaig was never consulted about it. Mr. McCaig said that he intended to ask that it bo sent to his com mittee and intimated that before it got out he was going to see the Governor and the highway authori ties. Considerable surprise at the size of the appropriation was mani fested as some pretty stiff pruning has been under way lately. Mr. McCaig said this week he would have meetings with trustees, for the Farview State Institution in regard to reduction of some esti mates made for building. He said that owing to the prices asked for building the people in charge of new State hospitals would be asked to get along with as little as possible until prices become stablized. This is taken to mean that there will be no ' extensive building program for the State hospitals at Selinsgrove or Blairsville. Nothing has been de termined about the State institution for Inebriates. German Boys Sell Paris Editions of American Papers Ooblenz, March. 31.

Monarchists in Oporto Rule But Short Time Lisbon, March 31—The monarchy established on Oporto and other dis tricts in the north of Portugal prov ed ephemeral. Barely a month after its proclamation and enthusiastic welcome, a counter-revolution with in the city, seconding the attack from outside by the republican troops sent by the government, suc ceeded with equal enthusiasm in restoring the republican flag o n the spires and steeples of Portugal. The royalists were led by Paiva Couceiro, a very brave and tenaci ous soldier, but an ineffective or ganizer. The continued dissensions between republican factions led him to suppose the moment propitious for a return to the monarchy, and, without any agreement with the , royalists of Lisbon and the south, he placed himself at the head of the | monarchist elements of the north, and, at the head of several thousand troops, proclaimed the monarchy at Oporto and in the northern prov inces. A provisional government was es tablished; laws were issued, and local administrative authorities ap pointed everywhere. Couceiro ex pected that other victorious royalist risings would follow all over the country. Instead of this, the Lisbon insurrection of Monsanto failed, and the same occurred in other localities, while in many centers there were no disturbances of public order. Japs to Get Lands in Lower California Mexico City, March 31.—That Jap anese corporations have been grant ed concessions to exploit agricultur al lands in Lower California was the statement made by General Amado Agairre, under secretary of develop ment and agriculture. The affirmation was made, how ever, that the concessions were fully authorized by the provisions of the Mexican constitution regarding the area and position of the territory in relation to the ocean shore and the frontier line. There was nothing in the conces sions, it was asserted by the under secretary, that might possibly lead to difficulties as far as the Monroe Doctrine was concerned.
