Lithuanians As*
Allied Recognition
Paris, May 10.—An appeal for
recognition of the Lithuanian gov
ernment by the United States and
her allies, and for arms, ammuni
tion and supplies for Lithuanian
troops to complete the work of
clearing the Bolsheviki out of Lithu
ania, is contained in a letter ad
dressed to Secretary of State Lan
sing by the Lithuanian Commission
to the Peace Conference. The ques
tion of what the Lithuanian bound
aries shall be can be settled at a
later date, the commissioners state;
all that Lithuania asks for now is
recognition of her independence by
the great powers.
"To delay the question of recog

Russia is solved and a common pol

Conference," says the letter, "would

WILL CAMPAIGN
AT GRACE CHURCH
Meet Monday to Arrange the
Plans For Big 830,000
Drive
Grace Methodist Episcopal Church,
Stato street, near Third, will be the
scene of a special Mother's Day ser
vice, on Sunday morning at 10.30
o'clock. Dr. Robert Bagnell, pastor
of Grace Church, will preach a ser
mon on "Mother And Home," and
the chorus choir, under the leader
ship of Prof. John W. Phillips, will
render some especially appropriate
anthems.
The Grace Church pastor has pre
pared a most forceful sermon for the
evening service, which starts at 7.30
o'clock, and his topic for this special
sermon will be, "Substitues For
Righteousness."
The Epworth League service at
6.30 o'clock in the evening, will be
in charge of Charles W. 8011, presi
dent of the Harrisburg District Ep
worth League. Mr. 801 l retires next
Sunday as president of the Grace
Church Epworth League, and as this
will be the last time he will speak
in official capacity of the Grace Ep
worth League, special plans have
been made to have a most unusual
meeting.
The stewards of Grace Church,
representing the twenty districts, in
to which the church membership has
been divided, will meet at the Penn-
Harrls Hotel for dinner at 6.30
o'clock, Monday evening, with the
members of their teams, to receive
instructions for the campaign to
raise J30.000 to take care of the im
provements that are to be made
at Grace Church in the very near
future, ih connection* with the new
organ which is being given to the
church as a gift, by one of its
prominent members. These captains
and their committees will also meet
on Wednesday and Friday noon, at
12.15, at the Y. M. C. A., to report
the progress their teams have, made,
and to hear the total subscriptions
to date. Mr. Arthur D. Bacon and
Mr. Charles H. Kinter, are the man
agers of the. financial drive, and a
great deal of interest has been arous
ed in the church over the up-to
the-minute program, which was
adopted at the corporation meeting
a few weeks ago.
Parents' Day at Christ
Lutheran Church
Instead of observing simply
Mothers' Day to-morrow in Christ
Lutheran Church, the congregation
and Sunday School will observe Sun
day as Parents' Day. Dr. Reisch has
requested his people to come and
occupy the pews as families, as was
the custom in olden times with
father, mother and children in
separate groups.
The unique feature <s presented
in that the returned soldier boys are
urged to come with their parents
for a service of prayers of gratitude
and thanksgiving for their safe re
turn. The choir .will render special
and appropriate music at all the
services.

YANKEES FINDING
MANY VALUABLES
Turn Up Numerous Articles
In the Shell-torn
Battlefields
Paris, May 10.—American troops
who have been working in the shell
torn areas of France have been re
covering many valuables of various
sorts buried in the ruins. All these
finds are turned over to the French
Ministry of Finance which is en
deavoring to discover the original
owners of their heirs. All unclaim
ed treasures go to the state.
Members of the American Second
Army Corps recently unearthed at
Avoucourt a large number of French
and Russian rullway bonds which
had lain in the cellar of a demolish
ed home since the Germans first
invaded the sector. The bonds were
all in good condition and bore cou
pons which had not* been clipped
since July, 1914. Whether the own
er is dead or alive will be deter
mined by the Ministry of Finance.
Among the valuables recovered
are many belonging to ruined
churches. Not infrequently when
several churches in a town have
been destroyed and each of them
has lost similar treasures it is im
possible to say who is the owner of
the wealth recovered. In this case
it is divided among them.
Opposes Alliance
to Protect France
Washington, May 10.—Senator
Norris, of Nebraska, Republican, is
sued a statement yesterday announc
ing his opposition to the proposed
alliance between the United States,
Great Britain and France for the
protection of France against attack
by Germany.
"This alliance, if formed," the
senator said, "kills the League of
Nations and the next logical step
is the creation of a great army and
a great navy to carry out the alli
ance. Then the next step will be
an alliance between some other
powers to build up a great army and
a great navy, both alliances being
formed to prevent aggressions. Then,
with all great nations armed to the
teeth, the invitation for another war
is presented."
Hospital Facilities
to Be Reorganized
Washington, May 10. —Complete
reorganization of army hospital
facilities to effect economies made
possible by the rapid demobilization
of the military establishment was
ordered yesterday by Surgeon Gen
eral Ireland. A total reduction of
5,500 beds was ordered at various
camp hospitals.
Nine hospitals were ordered to be
turned over to or reserved for the
Public Health Service to be used for
the treatment of war risk insur
ance beneficiaries.
The Lakewood, N. J., institution
is to be abandoned before June 1,
and preparations already are under
way to close six other hospitals.
