4 HAYS APPEALS TO REPUBLICANS TO HELP LOAN National Chair in an Lays Aside Activities Until Campaign Ends By Associated Press. New York, April 14.—An appeal by Will H. Hays, chairman of the Republican National Committee, for Republicans and the "Republican press" to give their united support to the Victory Loan was issued here last night. "Again the call for the charge has sounded," said Mr. Hays' appeal. "This is not the fighting men at the fighting front. For them the war is over. But to the rest the real test has come. "To those whose privilege it has been to form the second line, and to whose credit it is recorded that they, too, attained every objective: to those from every class, creed and political faith, who acted in that un selfish co-operation which brought to the fighting men the support that made so much for the complete vin dication of our institutions; to the men and women of America, who do not fail, has this call come. "Let us show to these fighting men who have returned how commands have been obeyed-here. Let us send to the fighting men still abroad the message of no weakening. Let us show to the world that our patriot ism is not that born only by ex tremities and stirred only by martial music, but the devotion which meets a duty in the firm determination of consecrated service, and performs it. And let us demonstrate to ourselves that we are worthy of the name America and the privilege of our •citizenship. "Our first duty as Republicans to day is that duty which never failed and never will fail to anticipate and discharge— KHir duty as Americans. Just as during the recent war we determined our e\ei> act by now we could do most for ef fective action, so now we will meas tire our every step by how we can contribute most, to the nations wel "To that end we will abandon _all other activities to aid in the A ic tory Loan until its success has been accomplished."

Third Street 157 N. Front Street Harrisburg Steelton MONDAY EVENING, MANUFACTURERS GIVE 11 REASONS FOR SLOW RETURN OF . BUSINESS TO NORMAL Only Five of Twenty-Two Industrial Groups in Country Re port Condition of General Business Prosperity By Associated Press. New York, April 14.—Only five out of twenty-two principal groups throughout the country reported a condition of general business pros perity in replies to a questionnaire sent to its 4,400 members by the Na tional Association of Manufacturers. A digest of the replies, issued by the association, showed that sixteen out of the twenty-two groups into which its membership was divided reported business below fifty per cent. of normal prewar conditions. The sev enteenth, leather and leather manu facturers, reported trade about equally divided between fair and good. In response to a request for sug gestions to help general prosperity, the replies enumerated a total of eleven obstacles lying in the path of a return to normal conditions. Reasons For Lull Delay In signing the treaty of peace. General high cost of lnbor and material. Sudden cessation of war buying operations by the United States anil foreign go vermeil ts. Hand to mouth buying by job -1 hers, retailers and consumers await ing expected price reductions. Continued government control, management and operation of rnil road. etc. * Sudden imposition of heavy war revenue tax burdens on industry. Labor unrest, agitation and in dustrial strife. High prices of wheat due to gov ernment guarantee. Unemployment and poor distribu tion of labor' forces released from naval or military service. Delay in settlement by Federal government of claims for payment under informal war contracts. Partial shutting oil of important European markets due to import trade embargoes by Great Britain. France and Italy. The digest thus summarizes the opinions of the association members as to what is needed to promote na tional prosperity and a return to normal business conditions. What Is Needed "Stop wartime extravagance: re turn the railroads and the wires to the owners: modify taxes on indus try: let the government bear the losses on wheat —the foundation of food prices; abolish war period regu lating .agencies: let increased pro duction justify high wages; have the government pay its war bills: in augurate public works: educate the SERIES OF HOLY WEEK SERVICES OPEN TO-NIGHT A series of Holy Week services will open to-night in the Pine Street Presbyterian church and will close Friday night. The services will open at 7.43 o'clock each night. The fol lowing subjects will be discussed: Monday. The Call of the Cross, "Follow Me:" Tuesday, The Crime of the Cross, "They Delivered Him:" Wednesday, The Cost of the Cross. "God Gave His Son:" Thursday, The Curse of the Cross. "His Hlood 15c t'pon Us:" Friday, The Claim of the Cross, "It Is Finished." TO REGISTER ROOMS The registration of homes and rooms of Harrisbttrg by the Homes Survey Committee. composed of Civic Club members. originally scheduled to start this morning, will not be commenced until Wednesday morning. Mrs. Marliti K. Olmsted, I chairman, announces. The comple tion of this work is preliminary to the installation of a permanent I Homes Registration Bureau by the I Homes Service Bureau of the Na tional Housing Corporation in co operation with the housing commit tee of the Harrisburg Chamber of Commerce. Office Hours for examination or consultation: 9 to 11 A. M.; 12 to 5 P. M. Saturday—9 to 11 A. M„ 12 to I 5 P. M., 6 to 8 P. M. 1 12 X. Second St., 2nd I'loor Front. J I public in the elements of economics." L The digest does not give a very optimistic outlook in respect to im proved business conditions for this year. After remarking that the pro duction of iron and steel is univer sally regarded in business circles as the most reliable trade barometer, it says that the replies from this industry show trade in a state of comparative lethargy while 67 per cent, of the steel and iron manufac turing plants do not regard trade prospects for 1919 as bright. The widely spread belief that the ces sation of war would bring a great volume of orders from the war de vastated countries of Europe receives little support. Boom In Luxuries The digest brought out the curious fact that there is a regular boom all over the country in phonographs, automobiles and jewelry, especially in the big industrial regions. An overwhelming percentage of the members, one hundred per cent, in seven groups and above ninety five per cent, in the remainder, de claied themselves in opposition to any form of government ownership and urged the return of the rail roads to their private owners.. Gov ernment regulation was approved in eighty per cent, of the total replies received. The labor problem was dealt with in these questions: "Do you favor or oppose a legally constituted national board for the adjudication of labor disputes " "Are you in favor of legislation imposing legal responsibility on trade unions?" "Do you favor or oppose the repeal of the Lafollette seamen's act?" The vote on the first question show led 64 per cent, in favor of a national adjudication board but some import ant qualifications were made. The digest declares that the comments showed general dissatisfaction with the present 'National War I-abor Board on the ground that it conced ed too much to the labor side in a dispute and that many manufactur ers directly charged that the board had "failed to be impartial, judicial or conciliatory." The greatest unanimity shown on any question was in regard to the placing of statutory responsibility on trade unions for their contracts and the acts of their agents. Less 'than one-half of one per cent, of the re plies were negative. The opposition to the repeal of the Lafollette seamen's law was also very small. The Baumgardner-Dickey Wedding This Morning Miss Helen Dickey and Paul Je rome Baumgardner were united in marriage this morning at the Zion Lutheran Church, the Rev. S. Winfield Herman officiating.

CHURCHES HOLD SPECIAL SERVICES Palm Sunday Observed and Scries of Holy Week Ex ercises Begun Services of praise and thanksgiv ing marking: the entrance of Christ into Jerusalem, were held in vir tually every Christian church in the city last night in observance of Palm Sunday. Many churches had spe cial sermons in the morning, and in the evening ministers preached ser mons opening a series of Passion Week services to continue through the coming week. Among the sermons delivered was that of Dr. Clayton Albert Smucker, pastor of the Stevens Memorial Methodist Church, Thirteenth and Vernon streets, at the morning serv ice. Speaking on the subject. "The Coming World Triumph of Christ," he said in part: "Jesus Christ comes to humanity with the religion which appeals to the world's common sense. His theme is 'The Kingdom of God.' That kingdom is within you, not in mountain or temple, not in shrine or ritual, but in humanity. He simplified religion. He took it out of the realm of speculation and put it in the realm of experience, took it out of the realm of mysticism and put it in the realm of affection. He nttracted men's eyes away from idols and fixed them on Christianity, which transcends all speculation and philosophy and widens existence in to new meanings and grander possi bilities. The world welcomes Jesus Christ with that 'Hosannah' which seems like the bursting of humanity's eternal rob of despair into an im mortal song of hope." I>ast evening folks were attracted to the Stevens church to hear the minister on "Ruth-Hove in the Bar ley Field." This old love story was told in a very interesting way to the large number of sweethearts who attended the "Sweetheart Night Meeting." A cantata was presented in St. Stephen's Episcopal Church last eve ning, marking the congregation's observance of Palm Sunday. Dr. Lewis S. Mudge delivered an inspir ing sermon in the Pine Street Pres byterian Church on "The Hero's Heroism," in which he spoke of the crucifixion of Christ and the contents of the cup he drained. A feature of the services was the beautiful singing of the quartet choir, whose personnel includes Mrs. Roy G. Cox, • soprano: Mrs. James G. Sanders, con jtralto; M. D. Hollenbaugh. tenor, and Elmer H. Ley, bass. The quartet sang two noble Palm Sunday selec tions, a beautiful setting of "The Twilight Shadows Fall" (Barrl- Shelley): and Tertius Noble's in spiring "Go to Dark Gethsemane." In many churches of the city the call of suffering Armenia was pre sented. A feature of the services was the reading of an appeal for subscription to the Victory Loans which was read in every church of the city.
