14 AUSTRIAN ARMY OFFICERS SEEK WESTERN HAVEN Spanish Embassy in Berlin Tells Huns America Docs Not Want Them Berlin. April 10. The Austrian (■Secretary of State for military af fairs announces that he has received assurances from French and British representatives in Vienna that 700 Austrian army officers who desire to emigrate to Argentine will not be i prevented from traveling to that 'country, according to the Vossische 1 Zeitung. This report again calls attention to the activities of German army offic ers who are seeking to enter the American army in such large nurn- I bers that the Spanish Em-bassy here (■found it necessary to post a placard (stating that these men are not want ed by the American military author ities. The American correspondents in ■ Berlin are almost daily receiving in quiries from German officers with ithis purpose in mind, who are in (variably told by the correspondent (that they have no knowledge of any willingness of any United States army (authorities to accept the German of -1 flours. $3O Rental Due From Trust Company Forgotten County Controller Henry W. Gough ito-day advised the County Commis isioners that two public service com- Ipanies that have special privilege concessions in the use of county (bridges and the Commonwealth 'Trust Company, which has a rear en trance to its Market street building, facilitated by the passageway along the east side of the courthouse, have not paid rentals due the county for several years. He urged the county heads to send bills and collect the •money. For using the passageway at the • side of the courthouse Gough said the trust company is charged $3O a year but that nothing had been paid 'for at least six years. The Middle town and Swatara Water Company is charged $25 annually for having its water main on the concrete bridge over the Swatara creek, be tween Middletown and Royalton. Gough said four years' rental is due. He contends that the \yilliams town Gas Company owes the county $5O. representing rent for five years for having a gas main on the bridge spanning the Wiconisco creek in Lvkens. Efforts will be made to col lect the bills, it was said. Like Poets, the Good Printer Is Born, t Not Made FT no other trade is the highest skill demanded so much as In that of print- I lng.

Much Blame on Emperor The agreement on responsibilities for the war is understood to have been a compromise between divided reports presented by the commission of which Secretary l.ansing is chair man. There was a practical agree ment on the general responsibility of the German emperor for bringing on the war, but division occurred on whether it was feasible to bring him to justice before an international tribunal. The French and British view favor ed a tribunal, but the American view, it is understood, favored moral in dictment without recourse to prose cution, owing to the lack of an inter national law as a basis for trial be fore an international court. Belgium, on which the war fell first and heaviest, is reported to have taken a view much similar to that of the United States, while Japan and Italy were partially in accord with the American view. Method of Procedure It was owing to these divergent viewpoints that the council divised a new plan, whereby one of the allied nations, probably Belgium, would initiate prosecution against the for mer emperor and others responsible for the breach of treaties, the inva sion of territory and the destruction directed against this country. and lending to a more general spread of the war. The exact nature of the agreement is not disclosed, but the foregoing is believed to cover the main lines. The text as finally approved on reparations specifies that the enemy countries must admit responsibility for all loss and damage to allied and associated nations, and their citizens caused by the unjustifiable agression. But in view of the inability of the enemy countries fully to recompense these losses, the clause states, an inter-allied commission will assess the losses on a Just basis for thirty years, beginning May 1. 1921. with an initial payment of $5,000,000,000. Germany is to pay the entire cost of the commission and staff during the thirty years of operations. The first payment is to be credited against Germany's obligation to pay for the maintenance of the allied troops in the occupied regions, and the second priority is for the payment of food relief furnished to Germany. Frontiers to Be Inviolable "President Wilson once proclaimed our frontiers those of humanity it self. They must. then, be made in violable." There will be no diminishment in the intellectual productivity of France. President Poincare declared to-day at a service at the Sorbonne in honor of French writers killed in the war. The war, he added, had brought a better understanding of what is eternal in France and what she represented in the world. French writers will preserve and develop the intellectual influence of France. The President eulogized the spirit of the young writers who had sacrificed themselves for a great cause. \ddresses Rumnnla's Querv Turning to Queen Marie of Ru mania, who was present. M.

April 10. —Ralph | Adams Cram, a leading High Episco- | pal layman, of Boston, created some- ! thing of a sensation when, in an ad-j dress at the monthly luncheon of > the Clerical Brotherhood, in thej Church House, he advocated church ; unity on the basis of a return to the Roman Catholic fold. Mr. Cram, who has made a life ! study of Christian tenets, manifested] a wonderful knowledge of the fine] points of Catholic and Protestant' Episcopal theology. The address, which was probably! the most radical of its kind ever] heard here before a Protestant au- j dience, was evidently in accord with I the ritualistic branch of the Episco- j pal Church, which has for years; been more and more favorable to' Catholic doctrine,-and which, it is' rumored, is contemplating joining j the Roman Catholic body through a ; special commission recently sent to | Rome. The anti-ritualistic branch, of the church was visibly opposed; to the spirit of the address, though j praising its profound theological value and scholarly treatment. Divided Christian Churches. In the course of his remarks Mr. Cram showed the divided and j scattered efforts of the Christian ichurches in trying to solve the great and perplexing questions facing the world in the present crisis of recon struction. He then called attention to the doctrines of the Catholic [Church, dwelling for a considerable time upon the sacraments of that j body, which he insisted were indis pensable in the preservation and 1 practice of the Christian faith. He 1 said that without a doubt the Angli j can Church had to go back to the i tenets of the middle ages, when [ church and State, hand in hand, in j sisted upon the indissobulility of the | marriage tie and when it taught that j the sacrifice of the Mass was the j greatest and highest religious ser vice. and that the forgiveness of sins !in the sacrament of pennance was i essential to winning back the grace I of God. Concerning the Catholic teaching iof transubstantiation, the speaker | said that the arguments in its favor j were not to be challenged. The doe [ trines set up against it, most of which had been set aside, he said, were not in accord with the spirit of Christ, and he quoted a number of [ scriptural texts to show that transub jstantiation was clearly spoken of by Christ_and instituted by Him as a means of salvation.

I Cram, "has not had a right philoso-j j phy since the Reformation. The only; ' way that the world can be saved at ! ! this critical juncture is through ac- j I cepting a right religion and a right • philosophy. It is necessary to have j a right philosophy before any ef- I forts of reunion are begun. The' i first step for the Episcopal Church' J to take is to accept the strict Catho- j I lie doctrine of seven sacraments, ' with the llass, both as a communion , | and a sacrifice, as tlie chief control- i | ling doctrine of all, and transub- j I stantiation as the only perfect and, ) sufficient expression of the nature of| ; the Presence of Christ in the holy j sacrament of the altar. The only! j thing that can save us from a new 'period of the Dark Ages is a reun-1 lion of Christianity on the basis of j Catholic theology, sacramental pltil ; osophy and Catholic orders." | The speaker then went on to re- I i view the frequent efforts which had i been made by Anglicans towards a j j union with the Roman Catholic fold, j They were always concluded, he said, with certain provisos, and for that reason had never been effected. Cer tain Anglican bishops, he said, would ; have liked their authority ratified by communion with the church, with the right to teach and do pretty much as they liked. Rut the Angli can bishops and clergy would have ; to realize, he said, that they must, | in joining the Catholic Church, be ! ccnte what the latter reasonably in sisted upon, devoted priests in the ( ministry. Congratulated by Bishop. : Bishop Rhinelander, at the con j elusion of Mr. Cram's address, con ! gratulated him upon its spirit and i j said he was sure it was greatly ad- I mired by all the ministers, even by •! those who did not altogether agree . | with him in the final analysis of it. ■ j A few remarks were made at the ■ conclusion of the banquet by Bishop i'Arthur Dunn, of British Honduras, i j whom Rishop Rhinelander introduc ■ I ed as the highest representative of j the Episcopal Church in Central r! America. Bishop Dunn said that in •! his diocese, which covered 290,000 ■'square miles, he had to minister to ■ j people of six foreign countries, with ' I seven sets of laws. There were 150,- . I 000 Anglican members, the great '! majority of whom were West In ' | dians, and 130.000 among the labor ing classes. There were in his dio ' cese. he said, a million untouched l heathen population. He said he needed at least 30 more priests for mission work and made an earnest . appeal for financial aid. ty-seventh (New York) Division id wrote the two-act musical com i mpany was pretty well costumed ; h town which the Germans hod if clothes.

S. Leib, former resident clerk of the : House yesterday, on a charge of for : gery. The Commonwealth of Penn ! sylvania has brought the charge, ac | cording to announcement made by Attorney General William I. Sehaf ■ fcr. The name of Earl T. Dewald, St. C'air, deputy deposit clerk in the State Treasury Department, and David H. Matthews, Newcastle, treas ury clerk for Auditor General Charles A. Snyder, were forged by Leib according to charges made. This alleged forgery is said to have produced $5,094.15, representing taxes due to the State. According to published reports, Leib forged the name of State Treas urer H. M. Kcphart on a note which he used to obtain $5,000 from a Minersvillc bank. When this was dis covered it is said Kephart gav him three days in which to lift the note and I-eib made good. When further charges were dis covered,' the warrant was sworn out. Leib knew of it, according to stories current, and secured a postponement of the arrest in order to enter bail. When he did not keep an appoint ment with Deputy Attorney General Swope yesterday, the latter infornjed the Attorney General that Captain Pitcher and he were on the lookout for Leib. Leib, who is now a county com missioner of Schuylkill county, has been prominent in State and county politics for many years. State officials were waiting at noon to-day for information regarding the service of the warrant charging forg ery against William S. Leib. The warrant >s in the hands of the State Tolice officials, who are trying to locate the former resident clerk of the House. Mr. Leib was expected to surrender yesterday, but did not do so, and the officials are of the opin ion that he will do so to-day. State Treasurer Kephart and Au ditor General Charles A. Snyder are both out of the city and Clerks E. T. DeWald and David H. Matthews, whose names are alleged to have been forged refuse to say anything. Attorney General Schaffer declined to add anything to his statement of last night. MBS. JOHN M. STEWART Funeial services were held to-day, at 2 o'clock, for Mrs. John M. Stewart, w ho died Monday night at her home, 51S Muclay street, from a complica tion of diseases. Mrs. Stewart was Miss Mary Stevenson. For many year's she was prominent in the Covenant Presbyterian Church. Both Mr. and Mrs. Stewart had hundreds of friends in the upper part of the city. They were for years prominent in all man ner of church and welfare work : n that section. The services were in charge of the Rev. Harvey Klacr, pastor of Covenant Presbyterian Church. CITY TO PROFIT BY EXPERIENCE [Continued from First Page.] vides a common gathering place as imposing and luxurious as n\any a country club. At this place the committee found that the best type of houses corre sponded very closely to the best houses of the Cameron extension de velopment in Harrisburg and that the Cameron houses compared very favorably with similar dwellings de signed by the government experts. The Old Evil At Sun Hill and Sun Village the hand of the expert town planner and designer is not so much in evi dence. This was one of the earliest building operations undertaken, to house shipbuilders and many of the evils of the old row system were incorporated in the development. The committee made a short stop here. They learned more about what not to do for Harrisburg at this point than what ought to be done and the comparison between these houses and the general plan at Buckman provided a wholesome lesson for the Harrisburgers. The new-town of Yorkship Vil lage comprises the largest single development of this kind it) the United States, if not in the world. Houses are being provided here to accommodate the Yorkship workers and are eing rushed to completion to provide homes for the 3.500 men who are now being taken on at these yards. In all 1,500 houses are under roof here and not a few of them occu pied. The party was taken over this development by Electus D. Litch field, the architect, who designed it, and James B. Fisher, the realty en gineer in charge. Ground was first broken there May 7 of last year and i the first foundation laid last Au ; gust. In the brief space of time in j tervening the streets have been graded, thousands of yards of pav ing laid, lawns sodded and most of j the 1,500 houses made ready for i occupancy. There was little regard ■ ■ ■ Z,-- , for expense In this or any of the other operations visited. The job was done in a hurry and when final adjustments are made large sums will have to be charged off as war costs. It was felt by the practical builders present that Harrisburg could build the same type of houses far more cheaply and rent them far more reasonably than the govern ment will be able to offer under these conditions. A Beauty Spot Yorkship Village will be one of the beauty spots of the United States when completed. And when the builders turn over the operation to the government it will be a town complete in every respect, from bar ber shop to church. The whole vil lage is laid out with the idea of beauty and convenience combined. The streets are designed in large swinging curves and with the I thought of giving every resident a short cut oth to the shipyards and the center of town. Chairman J. Horace McFarland expressed himself as delighted with the trip. "I believe that the inter est of all those who attended has been greatly stimulated," said he. "We did not agree upon any pro gram. That is a matter to be set tled by discussion and investigation in Harrisburg, but 1 feel sure that when the committee gets together it will have a lot to talk about that it did not have previously, and I believe that the influence of our visit to these government develop ments, nil of them under the direc tion of the Emergency Fleet Corpo ration and embracing the best thought of modern town builders w.ll be felt in all our deliberations."
