2 WAR DEPARTMENT STARTS FORMING NEW GUARD UNITS Pennsylvania Advises Chiefs State Has Force Enough to Maintain Order By Associated Press• Washington, April 23.—Reconsti tution of the National Guard was actually started to-day, when the War Department, through the Bu reau of Militia Affairs, authorized the organization of seven regiments and one extra battalion of infantry, one squadron of cavalry and eight een companies of coaßt artillery. The State of New York was au thorized to raise four regiments of infantry, one squadron of cavalry i and twelve companies of coast ar tillery. New Jersey was authorized to organize one regiment of infan -I.ry and two companies of coast ar tillery; Ohio, two regiments of in fantry, and Oregon, one battalion of infantry and four companies of I coast artillery. Other authorizations for units are epccted to follow soon. The States lirst considered were those in which conditions were such that their Governors considered armed forces might be necessary under certain contingencies. The State of Pennsylvania, for instance, reported to the War Department that it pos sesses at this time a very efficient State Constabulary and 3,000 State Iroops, sufficient to handle any emergency which could be foreseen at this time. FIUME CANNOT" BE ITALY PART [Continued from First Page.] for solution at to-day's meetings of the conference leaders. Italy May Itcccdc Italy's delegation at the Peace Conference, however, seems to be showing a disposition to recede from ihc extreme attitude which it had taken and which has brought an ad mittedly grave situation in the work of restoring peace. Reports front Paris indicate a willingness on the part of the Ital ians to listen to suggestions of a compromise, this leading to hopes that some way will be found to ad just he conflicting demands of Italy and Jugo-Slavia regarding the city | of Fiunie and the Dalmntion coast. I To Yield Habitation Hinterland Italy, it is said, has offered to give up all claims to the Dalmation Hin terland if given Fiume, the Dalma tian coast and the coastal water shed. On the other hand, she lias rejected ofTers of Fiume in return for relinquishing any claims she may have on the Dalmation coast. Rival Claims Impend Rival claims of China and Japan to Kiao Chau and the Shantung peninsula have not been settled, and if the Chinese and Japanese home governments consent it seems prob able these claims will be left to be taken up by the League of Nations after peace has been declared. After conferring on the subject yesterday the Council of Four announced that Germany's rights to the territory involved in the dispute would bo terminated, but no linal disposition was made of the peninsula or the former German fortress of Kiao Chau. Hungarian Situation Quiet It seems to be established that the Soviet government of Hungry has crumbled, but the situation is still quiet and obscure. The party that lias assumed control is not definitely known. Munition and arms fac tories at Budapest are in full oper ation, it is said. The report that a Soviet regime had been set up in Turkey is doubted in London, where it is pointed out that if there was any truth in the rumor, reports would have been for warded by wireless to the British ad miralty by the British warships now lying before Constantinople. Poles Defeat Russian Reds The Russian Bolshevik reverse on the northwestern front, reported on Tuesday was at the hands of the Poles, who have taken Vilna and | have pierced the Bolshevik line to • the south. Vilna was the nearest approach oft Russian Bolshevism to Germany. On | the north Russian front the Allies have pushed forward a considerable distance along the lines south of the Murmansk peninsula. Mobs Clash With Police Serious disorders occurred at Hamburg. Germany, on Saturday and Sunday. In the suburb of St. Pauli, on the western outskirts of the city, mobs have flashed with the police and appear to have met with some measure of success.

SENATOR PENROSE RETURNS SUNDAY Confident of Early Passage of Philadelphia Bills; Has Many Visitors Philadelphia reform measures now pending in the Legislature can not be defeated by "deals of precinct politicians." This assertion was made to-day by United States Senator Penrose when asked if he thought there was any prospect of the Philadelphia measures being defeated in the House as a result of deals made by the Vares with country members. The Senator was told that the Vare forces had turned in a ma jority for the prohibition amend ment and for the suffrage resolu tion as a play for the votes of in dependent members from the coun try districts.

He predicted big majorities for the bills. The Senator said that he would try and see the Governor before he returns to Harrisburg next Sunday. He intends to leave for Philadelphia to-day and will go to New York Fri dayto speak at a dinner.

The Riverside Methodists KEMPS BALSAM for Coushs and Sore throat GUARANTEED i SAVE MONEY! SAVE SHOES! In a long chase for a criminal, J. E. Jones, a secret service man of Chicago, wore one pair of shoes with Nealin Soles for nineteen months. This chase covering both American continents and Australia, ended in April, 1917. The shoes were then given a mechanic at Clearing, 111., and were worn by him another seven months.

The unions did not live up to their prom ises to get us men, and we were APRIL 23, 1919, simply left to sit. Now these men want a further Increase in wages.

The mild and healing in fluence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp- Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its remarkable record of success. An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, In an Interview of the subject, made the astonishing state ment that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are re jected, is because kidney trouble Is so common to the American people, and the large majority of those whose applications are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease.
