    URGE GERMANS
TO FULFILL THE
TERMS OF PEACE
Cabinet Ministers Issue Proc
lamation Telling of Its
Conclusion
By Associated Press.
London, June 26.—President Eb
ert. Premier Bauer and all the min
isters have issued a proclamation lo
the German people, according to a
wireless message from Berlin, an
nouncing the conclusion of peace
and urging as the first pressing need
the bending of all efforts to its ful- ■
fllment.
"As far as It is possible to carry
it out," says the proclamation, "the
treaty must be :arried out."
It declares faithful loyalty to those 1
threatened with separation from the.
empire and promises to intercede in.
their behalf, "as we would intercede]
for ourselves." It concludes by ex- j
horting the people to realize the i
need of work and faithfulness to !
duty for the redemption of the,
country.
Speaking in the House of Com
mons on the subject of reparation
for the sinking of the German war
ships, Walter Hume Long, first lord
of the admiralty, explained it was
impossib'c for the admiralty to take
precautions to prevent the sinking,
because the ships were interned, not
surrendered. Therefore the admir
alty had no power to place guards
on them.
The first lord denied that the ad
miralty had recommended intern
ment, "emphasizing the point that the
decision of the Allied heads for in
ternment controlled the situation
and made prevention of the scuttling
utterly impossible.
Paris, June 26.—The Council de
cided yesterday afternoon to send two
notes to the president of the Ger
man peace delegation at Versailles,
one regarding the actions of the
Germans in Poland, in connection
with a significant telegram inter
cepted by the Poles, and the other
relative to the sinking of the Ger
man fleet in the Scapa Flow.
The Allies announce that they
will demand reparation for the sink
ing of the fleet.
COMMUNITYTENTERS
TO BE GIVEN TRIAL
[Continued from First Page.]
cupies three acres of floor space, has
90 rooms, and cost over $450,000,
with auditorium, two gymnasiums
and two fine shower baths.
"Harrisburg will see a new era in
education, with these two magnifi
cent structures and their special
teachers in new functions such as
cooking, sewing, housekeeping, type
writing, stenography, drawing, music,
printing, metal and electrical work.
Everything, including two immense
dining rooms, are in the equipment
of the modern buildings, so that, as
I have emphasized, the only senti
ment lacking for to bring about
community gathering is the attitude
of the public."
Dr. Downes' anxiety concerning
this arises, as he narrated, from tlie ;
experience of recent years, notably!
when the Shimmell building was
turned over to the public, like ten!
other buildings, and an organization
identified as "Parent-Teachers" took!
hold. They worked well one winter j
but speedily dwindled down in at-!
tendance until only a bare half doz-|
en responded. Constitution and or-1
ganization availed nothing and the!
project was an utter failure.
Dr. Downes is not entirely dis-i
couraged. but he believes that to tryi
things out, with limited financial ex-;
penditure is the wise wav, and so!
Camp Curtin, when it opens in Sep- j
tember, will be the stage for the'
initial effort.
NEW TENOR DISCOVERED
London. May 26.—Thomas Burke
is the name of a new tenor ac- ,
claimed by the British press and
public as another Caruso. He j
sprang into fame the other night at '
the opening of the Covent Garden '
opera season, when, with Madame j
Melba. he appeared in "La Bo
heme." Mr. Burke was born of
Irish parents in Lancashire, where j
he -~'.h is interested in pig farming !
At rft. Joseph's School, in Leigh,
where he was educated, he was
taught music by the Jesuit fathers.
Later he studied in Ital.- under Er- |
nesto Colli.

An Apartment House
Instead of Service Station
W. J. Stewart, president of the !
Liberty Realty Company which has
purchased the Bentley property on
North Front street, near Calder,
stated to the Tlegraph to-day that
the original plan for constructing a
public service station In connection
with the garage in the rear of the
property had been abandoned, and
that instead an apartment house,
with porches, would face Front
street. "We have no desire to an
tagonize property owners in the
neighborhood, and in designing an j
attractive service station set back
30 feet from the building line we sup
posed there could be no objection,"
was Mr. Stewart's comment. It was
pointed out to him that the Supreme
Court had affirmed a decision of a
Philadelphia Court sustaining an in
junction proceeding restraining the
building of a garage and service sta
tion in a residential section as a nuis
ance and prejudlcal to surrounding
property.

BAXtEUSBURG TELEGRAPH
| TEACHERS' PAY
BILL ADOPTED
[Continued from First Page.]
| Showalter, Union, asked some ques
j Hons of Mr. Ramsey, who replied
! that the State's share would be ten
I and a half millions and that 8,100
j holders of provisloaal certificates
j would benefit. Hesgaid that it rep
| resented the best thought of the
| Governor, Superintendent of Public
i Instruction and the conference com
mittee.
Mr. Showalter rejoined that the
• new system would not refund a sum
i equal to the present and held that
i the State should pay more. Mr.
: Sarig, Berks, said that rural districts
; would get less than now, that the
entire burden would fall on districts
; an d some would actually pav more
; than heretofore. It would be good
| for the teachers but not for taxpay
i ers, he argued.
I "We have been discussing this
matter for six months. This bill is
the best that we can get. It is a
I case of take it or none," said Mr.
Harrar, Lycoming.
In response to requests by Messrs.
Showalter and Wallace, Lawrence,
-dr. Fl>nn spoke on the bill, saying
that every efTort had been made to
work out a plan that would benefit
the rural districts which had been
given some advantages over city
districts. He said that the provisions
were equitable and that some dis
tricts would get more than at pres
ent. Taking his own county of Elk
he said that he felt sure that no
county was more adversely affected
districts throughout the State
\\ nicn have paid low salaries will
not benefit, but many others will.
If it is desired to increase the sal
aries of the teachers, said Mr. Flynn
the report should be adopted be
cause it represents many hours of
r„°t e £ " overnor - Superintend
ent of I üblic Instruction Thomas E.
iMnegan and the conference commit-
The hill then went to a vote and
Pa ? e w.™ 2 to 8. Messrs. Showalter
and Williams, Tioga, not voting.
Mr. Showalter, who had suggested
waiting a few hours before voting
so that the bill could be studied at
length, said that he had not voted
because he did not understand its
provisions.
Governor William C. Sproul
r r . re a ,s' th , the eonferes and as
sisted them in reaching the solutfnn
°, f Problem. The result win be
the $10,..00,000 will be available in the
next two years for the increase of
salaries and the state will nav tin
instead of $5 a month towards tie
increase granted to teachers hold!
5 V i ls ? certificates in sec
ond, third and fourth class districts
This removes objection which was
tricts m Bome °' smaller dis
® committee of conference
struck from the bill the Schantz
amendments inserted in the Senate
Monday night and which would have
cost the state $2,000,000.
. The conferees have changed the
definition of "rural" school The I
original bill defined it as a school I
in the open country or any one or
two-room school which is not a high
school. A "rural" school is defined
in the report as any school in the
country or small centers of popula
tion. which is not a high school.
Tills broadens the field and re
quires more money to carry out the
provisions of the bill, hence the tak
ing over of the $4,500,000 fund
Tf ?, e Y gc of , lhe . word "compensa
tion instead of "salaries" in the
section referring to first class dis
tricts is retained. This protects the
bonuses received by the Pittsburgh
and Philadelphia teachers. The re"
port makes no change in the pro
vision that in first class cities tne
State and district will share equally
in the payment of the salary In
creases.
Bulgars and Turks Raid

Salonilti, June 26. Bands of
Bulgars and Turks, co-operating close

acute.
Ninety-three Greeks were said to j
have been killed at Karaghatsk. At j

Employes Present Loving Cup
to Heads of Company and
Pledge Loyalty to the Cor
poration, Now One of the
Oldest in the City
Employes of the W. O. Hickok
Manufacturing Company put over a
big surprise at noon to-day. It being
the seventy-fifth anniversary of this
big industry, one of the oldest in the
city, the employes arranged a big
celebration, unknown to the officials
of the company.
Five minutes after the whistle
sounded the noon hour the men and
women rushed to the recreation
room. The head of the firm looking
out of a second-story window did not
see the usual crowds going for lunch.
Even the women employes acted dif
ferently. A few minutes later W. O.
Hickok, 3rd, president and Ross A.
Hickok. secretary and treasurer of
the Company, were summoned to the
recreation room. Here they found the
employes lined up in front of a large
table filled with flowers and with an
American flag In the center. There
was intense silence.
Albert Broadmeyer, mechanical en
gineer, stepped to the front and in a
neat speech presented the members
of the Arm with a large silver cup.
He referred to the loyalty of the
i employes and to the good spirit
| shown in their workmanship at all
I times, adding "which means that a
I strike is an improbability." He said
! every employe desired to show their
j appreciation for the good treatment
| by the firm and in honor of the sev
! enty-fifth anniversary of the indus
| try. presented the silver cup. The
j latter was covered with the Ameri
can flag and when the flag was re-
I moved the surprise was not only to
j the members of the firm, but to the
j employes, as the gift was a hand
some one. In conclusion the master
I mechanic extended the best wishes
; of all employes for seventy-five more
| years of success and then still more.
Rons A. Hickok Responds
Ross A. Hickok responded, thank
' ing the employes in behalf of himself
j and brother and commending the
! employes for their loyalty and for
their good work during the war. He
said 'I hope this good spirit will al
ways continue. This is, indeed a big
surprise, and I cannot express my
! self how great your surprise is to us.
We appreciate your loyalty In the
• past and want it understood that
there need be no trouble here. If
you have any grievance tell it to your
foremen first and then come to the
I office. We thank you very, very
much."
Three rousing cheers were given
for the members of the firm, and then
each employe personally congratu
lated the president, and secretary
and treasurer.
A Prosperous Firm
The firm started in 1844. W. O.
Hickok the Ist, was a bookbinder by
trade and was in business at Third
and Cranberry streets. He found the
need for ruling and bookbinding ma
chinery and was the first to build
this machinery. In 1856 he moved to
North street, and the Pennsylvania
railroad. Here it was known as the
Eagle Works. From 1860 to 1885
this company also manufactured
cider mills, feed and binding machin-
I ery, but dropped this line of work,
when the farming implement com
panies took up manufacturing on a
large scale. In 1886 the company
was chartered under the name of the
W. O. Hickok Manufacturing Com
pany.
Due to the Capitol Park extension
the firm was obliged to move and
erected a large daylight plant at<
Ninth and Cumberland streets into
which they moved March 17, 1916. At
present there are 110 employes at
this plant, and its products include
ruling machines, ruling pens, paper
feeders, book binder machinery and
accessories. The committee In charge
of to-day's big surprise Included:
Albert Broadmeyer, chairman: Wil
liam Kepple, Edward Bowman, Wil
liam Anderson, Earle Unger, and
Chester Buffington.
Rain Doesn't Bother

ployes of Soutter's Twenty-five Cent
Department Store. It Is the store's
annual picnic day, and notwith
standing the rain that was falling
at noon it was a happy, laughing
crowd of seventy-five employes and
friends that boarded the cars for
Hershey Park.

The attendance prize came from
the Remington Typewriter Company,
through 'J. C, Merril, namely, $lO
worth of supj. lies, and was won by
Walter Montgomery. Edward Meek,
of the P. R. R. singers put over a
new song "Can You Tame Wild
Wimin," and Al. K. Thomas arrived
j just in time with an armfull of
I fly swatters which kept everybody
Ibusy until Mr. Clark caught serious'
attention by challenging the world
to critic'se the "Y"for its war activi
i ties. "We were under Government j
orders," he explained, "and the fact |
as given out is that 75 per cent, of !
our soldiers had vast chance to play j
and relax under "Y" directors. We |
looked to the churches of America
to sound the religious message of a
combined church. If criticism is
directed to American Christianity it
is not the fault of the Y. M. C. A.
Our organization aimed to select the
best of men and the fact that out
of 150,000 volunteers 11,000 were
chosen shows a wise selection was
made. The long hours, the tremend
ous speed required, made the "Y" the
greatest activity of the war; military
officers declare that it fitted many
thousands of men by its recreations
better than the men of Germany
were prepared in 40 years of train
ing. It was the backbone of the
invasion, and the greatest single or
ganization developed in the war. I
rise in defense of the Y workers who
sleep in Flanders, in defense of hun
dreds of white haired men who gave
up everything to make the younger
men happy. It is a fact that the
"Y" accomplished more in France
than all other organizations put to-!
gether. There was a volunteer staff
of '150,000 and these men developed
amazing activities for manufacturi
ng. We had to get much of our
material from the French and they
charged high, so that thei'e was a
loss, rather than profit in much of
material handled."
The bill in Legislature for school
salaries increase brought out a roar
of applause for Kiwanis had been
earnest in its help toward passing
this measure.

in the front rank, the increased ap
propriations for charities which he
declared made this Commonwealth ;
ahead of any other State in such
matters; the highway legislation, I
most extensive of any in the country, !
and the reorganizations of govern- j
mental departments. The school i
teachers' salary increase was praised
by the Governor as recognition of!
"underpaid, faithful and devoted [
public servants."
The Governor said he intended to
name the best minds of the State
and representatives of every ele
ment on the commission to revise
j the Constitution, which he had come
! to consider as a code of limitations
| rather than rights.
The Session's Ix>iigtli
In regard to the length of the ses
sion Governor Sproul said people

:n State as Pennsylvania can r.ot be
! crystallized in a few weeks or even
I months.
I In closing the Governor expressed
i "complete satisfaction" with the
legislature and the kindliest of feel
ings.

j Governor who left the hall amid

| to the singing of "Auld Tang Syne."
Personal Remarks V'.xpunged
j Passage of a resolution expung
i ing from the record all remarks
j derogatory of members was the last
| business of the House ar.-.l caused
I protests from Mr. Cox, Philadelphia.
| The resolution was presented by Mr.
McCaig, Allegheny, seconded by Mr.
Ramsey, Delaware. Mr. Cox said
that such a motion should come
from a man who had made such re
marks.
The Speaker remarked that a
similar resolution had passed the
Senate.
Mr. Cox demanded specific in
-1 stances of things to be cut out.
"Nothing is -singled out. An
agreement to introduce such a reso
j lutions was made," said Mr. Ram-
I sey.
Mr. Cox demanded to know who
was to be judge of remarks. Mr.
McCaig said he thought the Speaker
and the chief clerk.
The resolution passed with a num
ber of "does."
The Speaker then declared the
House finally adjourned.
Raldwin Is Honored
Shortly before adjournment this
morning, the Senate passed finally
the bill conferring upon banks the

pose of amendment.

I Senator Daix, Philadelphia, pre
sented a resolution thanking Lieu-

Demand Is Light
The expected demand for "hard
liquors" on the part of drinkers de
siring to put awav a supply has not
materia'ized. There were those
who believed that the drinking man
would sell his shirt to buy booze for

throughout the city is to refrain
from laying in a private stock.

Wartime Prohibition %,'j
Legislation Now on Way
Washington, June 26.—The House
judiciary committee to-day voted to
split prohibition legislation into
three parts, with enforcement of
wartime prohibition separate and
distinct from the others, which re
lates to constitutional prohibition
and the manufacture of industrial
alcohol.
The indications were that the
separate bill for enforcement of the
wartime prohibition would be re
porter out of committee before ad
journment. Members of the com
nV.ttee expressed belief that en
actment of legislation to enforce
wartime prohibition would be sure
before July 1, the date the nation
will "go dry," unless President Wil
son acts to suspend the law. The
measure to enforce constitutional
prohibition is expected to be much
more stringent than that to enforce
wartime prohibition.
