Takes Over More Land For Big New Plant An important real estate transac tion was closed to-day in the taking over of a considerable piece of land ; at Cameron and State streets by the Moorhead Knitting Company. This important plant has been developing so rapidly that additional space is re quired for its expanding business and the property purchased from the Gilbert estate and Spencer C. Gilbert, 241x200 feet, extends along State street from Cameron street to Pax ton creek and gives the Moorhead Knitting Company with its present plant and site an entire block bound ed by Cameron. State and Walnut streets, and Paxton creek. C. H. Lloyd, the architect, had prepared some time ago tentative plans for an enlargement of the big modern factory building, but these plans for an enlargement will have to be revised since additional land has been acquired. An enlargement of the plant lias been under consideration for sev- j eral months an<i it is probable that the bui'ding plans will now be car ried forward to meet the require ments of the company.

I WILSON PLEADS FOR WINES AND BEER IN MESSAGE TO CONGRESS; TO RETURN RAILWA YSAND WIRES Revision of War Taxes Is Asked PROSPERITY IS FORECAST i j Refuses to Discuss Obscure Terms of Peace Treaty By Associated Press. Washington, May 20. President Wilson, in his message to Congress to day, recommended repeal of the war-time prohibition law—so far as it applies to wine and beer ionly; announced definitely that j the rail systems and telegraph ! and telephone lines would be 1 returned to private ownership; i urged a revision of war taxes, : particularly to abolish the man | ufacturers and retail sales ex j cises, and outlined generally a program respecting labor. These were the "high spots" of the President's message ca bled from Paris. Urges Woman Suffrage Besides that, he again urged enact ment of the woman suffrage constitu- Uonal amendment; recommended that the tariff laws be supplied with teeth to protect American industry against foreign attack; spoke for legislation to facilitate American enterprise through the expansion of shipping and backed Secretary Lane's program for land for ' returning soldiers. Of the Paris Peace Conference and the 1 League of Nations the President merely said it would be premature to discuss them or express a judgment. He also avoided discussion of domestic legisla tion at length because of his long ab sence from Washington. Congress heard a unique document; the only one of its kind ever transmitted across the ocean from a President on a foreign shore. For the first time in six years it heard a presidential mes sage read by a reading clerk instead of assembling to hear the President deliver an address in person. Asks For Beer anil Wine The recommendations for the repeal of war-time prohibition and for the_ rail and wire systems, while not unexpected by some, contained greatest element of surprise and provoked the most wide spread comment of the many tasks set before Congress by the President. In his reference to prohibition, the President did not enter extensively into the considerations involved. Demobili zation. he said, merely "has progressed to such a point that it seems to me en tirely safe now to remove the ban upon the manufacture and sale of wines and beers." This ban. laid several months ago to become effective on Jul}' 1. could be removed, the President said, only by congressional enactment. His recommendation regarding return Of the railways and wire lines was the first authoritative declaration by the administration of its future policy and greatly surprised many members who had interpreted the developments of the last few months to mean that Mr. Wil son eventually would propose some form of permanent government operation. On the contrary the directness of the Presi dent's declaration on that point left no doubt that he was through with, any possible scheme of permanent reten tion. Bailroatls Go Back "The telegraph and telephone lines," said the message, "will of course be re turned to their owners as soon as the transfer can be effected without admin istrative confusion * * * The rail roads will be handed over to their own ers at the end of the calendar year." In the case of each the President asked for legislation to make easier the readjustments necessitated by the change. In his recommendation for readjust ment of taxation the President made it clear that he did not expect a fund amental readjustment of the domestic tariff rates that have been operative for the last six years. He asked for tariff changes only to protect special new in terests like the dye stuffs industry. Some reductions were advocated in war time excess profits taxes and the pres ent taxes on retail sales, the President thought, could be dispensed with en tirely. Congress Doubtful What will be the reply of the Repub lican congress to these proposals be came at once the topic of discussion everywhere about the Capitol. In re turning the railroads. It generally was conceded, the Republican leaders will readily give the President their co-op eration. But as to prohibition and tar iff and Internal revenue taxation the case was more doubtful. Those are problems on which no veary clear senti ment apparently has been formed In either of the great parties. His Tariff's Views On tariff revision the President said the United States should have the means of properly protecting itself when there : was danger of discrimination against It ; by foreign nations. "Although the United States will giad- j ly and unhesitatingly join in the pro- ! gram of international disarmament, it j will, nevertheless, be a policy of obvious i prudence to make certain of the suc cessful maintenance of many strong and well equipped chemical plants."' The President's Congressional Message "Gentlemen of the Congress: "I deeply regret my Inability to be present at the opening of the extraordinary session of the Con gress. It still seems to be my duty to take part in the counsels of the Peace Conference and contrib ute what I can to the solution of the innumerable questions to whose settlement it has had to address itself: for they are questions which affect the peace of the whole world, and from them, there fore, the United States cannot stand apart. 1 deemed it my duty to call the Congress together at this time because it was not wise to postpone longer the provisions which must be made for the support of the Government. Many of the appro priations which are absolutely necessary for the maintenance of the Government and the fulfillment of its varied obligations for the fiscal year 1919- 1920 have not yet been made: the end of the pres ent fiscal year is at hand, and action upon these appropriations can no longer be prudently delayed. It is necessary, therefore, that I should immediately call your attention to this critical need. It is hardly necessary for me to urge that it may receive your prompt attention. Pressing Problems "I shall take the liberty of addressing you on my return on the subjects which have most engrossed our attention and the attention of the world during these last anxious months, since the armistice of last November was signed—the inter national settlements which must form the subject matter of the present treaties of peace and of our national action in the immediate future. It would be premature to discuss them or to express a judgment about them before they are brought to their complete formulation by the agreements which are now being sought at the table of the Conference. I shall hope to lay them before you in their many aspects so soon as arrangements have been reached. "I hesitate to venture any opinion or press any recommendation with regard to domestic legisla tion while absent from the United States and out of daily touch with intimate sources of informa tion and counsel. I am conscious that I need, after so long an absence from Washington, to seek the advice of those who have remained in con stant contact with domestic problems and who have known them close at hand from day to day, and I trust that it will very soon be possible for me to do so. But there are several questions SEALED 3 DAYS IN FREIGHT CAR, BOYISRESCUED Harrisburg Runaway Is Near Death Across the Can adian Border Sealed' in a freight car since last Friday, John llunsnower, 19-year-old son of Mrs. A.

In speaking of them 1 shall, I dare say, be doing little more than speak your own thoughts. I hope that I shall speak your own judgment also. latbor Question First "The question which stands at the front of all others in every country amidst the present great awakening is the question of labor, and perhaps I can speak of it with as great advantage while engrossed in the consideration of interests which affect all countries alike as I could at home and amidst the interests which naturally most affec-t my thought, because they are the interests of our own people. "By the questions of labor I do not mean the question of efficient industrial production, the question of how labor is to be obtained and made effective in the great process of sustaining popu lations and winning success amidst commercial and industrial rivalries. I mean that much greater and more vital question, how are the men and women who do the daily labor of the world to obtain pro gressive improvement in the conditions of their labor, to be made happier and to be served better by the communities and the industries which their labor sustains and advances? How are they to be given their right advantage as citizens and human beings? Capital and labor "We cannot go any further in our present direc tion. We have already gone too far. We cannot live our right life as a nation or achieve our proper success as an industrial community if capital and labor are to continue to he antagonistic instead of being partners; if they are to continue to distrust one another and contrive how they can get the better of one another; or, what perhaps amounts to the same thing, calculate by what form and degree of coercion they can manage ( to extort on the one hand work enough to make enterprise profitable, on the other justice and fair treatment enough to make life tolerable. That bad road has turned out a blind alley. It is no thoroughfare to real prosperity. We must find another, leading in another direction and to a very different destina tion. It must lead not merely to accommodation, but to a genuine co-operation and partnership [Continued oil Page 10.] VOTES FOR WOMEN IN EARLY PROGRAM By Associated Press• Washington, May 20.—Repre sentative Mondell, of Wyoming, j Republican leader, announced in ■ the House to-day that the reso ! lution proposing submission of an | equal suffrage constitutional i amendment would be called up I to-morrow for passage.
