WILSON PICKS 5 SWANSON AS HIS ; SENATE LEADER I Deposes Hitchcock as Spokes l man in Fight For League; Democrats Astounded ; Washington, July 12.—The first p move of President Wilson for the it fight for the ratification of the Peace J, Treaty and the League of Nations j has been the virtual deposition of f Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska, as f- his spokesman in the Senate, and f the selection of Senator Swanson, of Virginia, to lead the League forces, f- Nortwlthstanding the denial by J Senator Swanson that there had i been a shift of leadership in the L democratic ranks, it was learned that the Senator is preparing a ; speech that will probably be deliv ered in the Senate on Monday, which ! will be the keynote in support of the j. Covenant and Treaty brought back \ f by President Wilson, while Senator | Hitchcock, who has headed the | 1 League forces during the six months v the President was abroad, is nt his j summer home in Massachusetts. [ Moreover, Senator Hitchcock has i not been in conference with the [ President since his return to the j r United States nor has he met the f President except as a member of !. the Senate Committee appointed to ' escort the Chief Executive into the | Senate chamber. On the other hand, , Senator Swanson was in conference , with the President for some time, ' and it is understood that a program I was mapped out upon which the | Democrats will support the Treaty and Covenant in the Senate. Dissatisfied With Light L It appeared that the President has , not been satisfied with the manner i in which the League fight has been I carried on during his absence, and r ascribes to this the growing senti- I ment against the League. This he finds even stronger now at the Cap i itol than he had been led to be lieve while in Puris. There are ' fears now being expressed that it will bo difficult to hold all the Dem * cratic forces in line when the final ' c test comes, several of the minority Senators showing a keen disappoint f. ment that the President in his ad dress failed to answer-questions that ' were in their minds, and which ; they fully expected would be cx ; plained when the Chief Executive [ returned with the Treaty. DENIES IU'PTURE Washington, July 12.—Published • reports intimating that there had been a disagreement between Presi f dent Wilson and Senator Hitchcock, t Nebraska, who has been one of the j leading spokesmen lor the admin- L istration in the long Senate fight over , the League of Nations, were said f h.v Secretary Tumulty to-day to be I without the slightest foundation.

SATURDAY EVENING, THREE SHIPS ARE READY TO SAIL FOR GERMANY One Is Loaded With Cotton i and Two With General Merchandise By Associated Press. Washington, July 12.—Three ships for Germany already have been load- I ed in American ports, one with cot | ton and two with general merchan j disc. They will start overseas as j | soon as licenses for their cargoes j i have been issued. j It also was announced that direct j ; steamship lines to Hamburg and ; i Bremen would be established by the ' j board. These lines will operate out I | of New York, Boston, Philadelphia, i | Baltimore and South Atlantic and I Gulf ports Just as soon as the neces- I I sary cargoes are at the docks, j Trading in all communities, except ' j dyestufl's, chemicals and potash con | trtil over which will be exercised by the Reparations Commission set up, by the Peace Treaty, will be unre stricted, it was said. American firms doing business with Germany must send their agents into that | country without passports, however, as these can not be issued until the proclamation of peace. It also was said at the State Department that there was no certainty when Ameri can consuls wodld be sent to Ger many. Payment for the goods which this country sends to Germany must be made under a system of credits to be arranged later through private cap ital. officials said. While Germany lias large quantities of goods ready to be exported, officials doubted that there would be any great demand for them in this country and conse quently the trade balance in favor of the United States is expected to" be large. Germany was said to be in immedi ate and pressing need of raw materi als of almost all kinds, particularly cotton and copper and it is believed that the demand for grain and cloth ing will be great. CHRISTIANS ARE TOTURED IN KOREA [Continued i\um First Page.] added, "have tjxfi same feelings of delicacy as Europeans a modesty not shured by Japanese of either sex." He accuses the Japanese of taking advantage of this situation to increase the distress of women pris oners forced to undergo examination by the police and says cultured and refined Korean women were sub jected to the grossest indignities. They were humiliated and exhibited to the public gaze, he declares. Respectable women In one part of Korea were not safe in their homos | during the day, the report contin i ues, und so were forced to spend most of their time as refugees in the hills, returning to their homes at night. The Japanese police des ignated all women who favored the independence of their land as social outcasts and denounced them in re volting terms. When arrested, some of them, it is charged, were tor tured. One such ease, which was cited, referred to a Christian wom an whose arm is said to have been wrenched from the socket by her persecutors. •flip Governor Admitted Offenses Towns where Japanese soldiers are declared to have committed ex cesses and burned churches and dwellings are Suchone and Tyungju, in north Pyengan province, and thirteen other missionary centers. Protests against such acts were lodged with the Japunese governor general by an American vice consul and a British acting consul, one of whom hud visited a ruined village. The governor general admitted the offense, it is stated. Hundreds Destitute Testimony regarding one of these fires was quoted from a Tokio news paper. It purported to describe scenes of ruin and devastation. Hundreds of families were said to he destitute. The investigators, ac cording to the report, were told by an aged Korean survivor how ail the Christians of the vtlagc had been forced to enter the church, the wom en being excluded, whereupon the soldiers started a massacre, sparing only women and children. After the fifteen villages hud been reduced to ashes, the report goes on, a number of Korean and Japanese newspa pers attributed the incendiarism to some of the missionaries and their converts. Others accused the Shun tokyo a seniipolitieal, semtreligious organization. Violently AntlAinerioan The Chosen Shimbun of March 13. 1919, is quoted as saying: "The stirring up of the minds of the Koreans is the work of Amer ican missionaries. This uprising is their work. • • • There are a good many shallow-minded people among the missionaries. They make the minds of the Koreans bad and plant the seeds of democracy." In conclusion, after publishing what are alleged to be violently anti American articles from certain Japanese newspapers, the report of the Presbyterian investigators says: "It is unnecessary to say more. TheHe articles speak for themselves. The reader can judge of the attitude of the press when the government permits such stuff to bo printed. As the press always is under -the cen sor here, when such stuff is printed, tiie government becomes morally re sponsible. Tlie truth is prohibited. Falsehoods und libels are ullowed. Such a course of action only endan gers the relations of the govern ments concerned." Italians Ask For Big Concession in China Paris, July 12.

BUILDING CODE NEEDED TO KEEP PROPER LINES Residential Sections jn Dan ger of Impairment by Lack of Laws With the Increasing development of the building trades more and more at tention is being given to the lack of a proper building code. Attention is par ticularly directed by real estate men to the failure in some cases of proper building restrictions along Front street especially, and in other residential sec tions. Occasionally an owner of prop erty will build upon a sidewalk line generally adopted by other buildings in the same locality. "The principal asset of the River Front boulevard," said a progressive citizen 10-dny, "is the maintenance of the Front street line a proper distance east of the sidewalk or building line. The future attructiveness of the River Drive depends almost entirely upon the establishing of a definite building line so that the open spaces back of the sidewalk are preserved as a necessary setting to the driveway along the river." Unless some definite steps are taken to provide building restrictions of this character through the adoption of a building code it is feared that serious impairment of the river frontage and Its picturesque character may follow. STEEL MILLS TO BOOM WITH COMING OF FALL [Continued from First I'ago.] to receive a large share of the Beth lehem apportionment. The rail mills here have been kept in operation partly through the transferring of orders from the Bethlehem plant. Prices Hold Strong The rolling mills and the foundry and forge department of the Steel ton plant probably are less active than are the others. Some of the rolling mills are not in operation at this time, while some of the other mills together with the foundry and forge department are operating only several days weekly. Comparative ly few less employes are on the com pany's payroll than before the war, however, it is reported. The fact that prices continue strong, is advanced by the city Iron and steel men as the reason for their belief that the business is rap idly coming again into its own in this territory. They say that heavy melting steel scrap is up again, with Pittsburgh district mills bidding from $13.50 to sl9 or higher, but ob taining hardly any offerings, as scrap is scarce and the limited tonnages available are being held for higher prices. In finished steel products the buy ing increases. The improvement in the market dates front about the second week in May and has been continuous since that time. Even the advent of the July-August mid sumVner period, proverbially a dull one in the steel market, does not seem to have affected the activity at all, and this is regarded as con clusive proof that a major move ment in the steel market is already well under way. On Goo<l Basis Mills of the Pittsburgh district are operating on a basis somewhat bet ter than an 80 per cent. For the whole of the country it is a fair es timate that the industry turns the half year on an operating basis of between 70 and 75 per cent. Pitts burgh* mills state orders received in June and sent to the mills for roll ing and specifications against con tracts were at least 50 per cent, heavier than in May, while in wire products and tubular goods they were nearly double. June proved to be the largest month in pig iron sales in the last twelve months; July so far shows considerable activity in all grades except steel-making irons. The low ebb in furnace operations has now, apparently passed, as more merchant as well as steel works fur naces are now going back in blast than are closing. Production of pig iron in the United States in June was at tlie rate of 26,000,000 tons a year, against a rate of 25.000,000 tons in May, the May rate having been the lowest since April, 1915. Light operations of car plants have curtailed demands for plates, hut the general outlook is for heavier operations. Inspection of building projects is increasing steel demands, while the automobile trade is de manding more sheets. Pipe mills are operating actively to supply ma terials for the oil country. It is re ported that more orders are being place for tin plate. Altogether, the trade is comparatively active and holds a generally bright outlook. Hundred New Looms to Be Installed in the Plant of Harrisburg Silk Co. During the war the Pelgram and Meyer Company, manufacturers of silks, ribbons, etc., went full blast, and since the cessation of hostilities there lias'bcen no falling off in their work. In fact, G. I\ Koster. local manager, announced yesterday that pans were being completed for en larging the capacity. One hundred new looms have been ordered to replace the older type of machinery, costing $40,000. and will soon be set up. All these looms will be driven by motors, as no belts at alt are allowed in the very up to-date factory conducted by the company in this city, as well as in Paterson and Hoonton, N. J. Another firm which is increasing its capacity is the Moorhead Knit ting Mills, which will begin the tirst of September to construct additional buildings to give double the present space. Brewer?

DAYLIGHT LAW IS SUSTAINED BY WILSON [Continued from First Pago.] miliar with the business operations of the country, but also from ob servation- of the happy and beneficial consequences of similar legislation in other countries where legislation of this character has been for some time in operation and where it has resulted, as the act of March 19, 1918, has resulted in the United States, in substantial economies. That act was inten-ded to place the chief business activities of the coun try as nearly as might be within the limits of daylight throughout the year. It resulted in very great econ omies of fuel and substantial econ omy of because of the very different effects of the work done in the daylight and work done by ar tificial light. Wide Satisfaction "It, moreover, served the daily convenience of many communities of the country in a way which gave all but universal satisfaction and the overwhelming testimony of its value which has come to me convinces me that I should not be justified in ac quiescing in its repeal." In regard to the sundry civil bill, the President, in another communi cation to the House said: "Under the vocation rehabilita tion bill, which became law June 27, 1918, ihe Congress has sought to fulfill the expectations of the coun try that their soldier, sailor and ma rine disabled ir.- the recent war should be given an opportunity lo secure at the expense and under the fostering care of the Federal gov ernment such training as he needs to overcome the handicap of his disability and to resume his place as a civilian able to earn- a living upon something like equal footing with those with whom he was associated hoforo he made his great sacrifice for the honor and defense of the country. Work at Height "The work of rehabilitation under this admirable law is now at its height and was to have been given greater speed and certainty by the amendmen-t to section two of the vocational rehabilitation b'll which I have to-day signed and which places the whole responsibility for vocational training in a single ngencv, virtuallv transferring from the War Risk Tn-mrance Bureau to the Federal Bonrd for Vocational Education rix million doPars with which to support disabled men in training at the generous figures of *BO a month for n single man and SIOO a month for a man and his wife.

Pricelixing, the daylight saving law, greed and many other things have entered into the arguments until the situation is uppermost in the minds of all concerned. Every year the council acts to lix the time of openyig the market and every year the rule fails of enforcement This year six o'clock was fixed, but the market opened when the truck ers arrived and frequently at six o'clock most of them were sold out and on their way home. Then the town council acted and compelled all to observe the law and await the appointed hour. A regular free-for all grab for the produce has result ed. Crowds of twelve and fifteen eager purchasers now surround wagons having on display the choice fruit and vegetables wanted and on the first stroke of the hour will dash in for their intended purchases. Fruits and vegetables have been spilled over the pavements and curbs and the truckers have a hig time getting their money while the pur chasing crowd fights on. More than that, the truckers object to the late opening hour, alleging that it delays them in getting home and doing their day's work, while council re plies that it is "really" only five o'clock and that farmers are sup posed to go by the sun anyhow. The newspapers and citizens gener ally claim that the truckers ask more for their fruit and vegetables than Is demanded at the stores and heated arguments have resulted, people asking the market men to Six Killed, 12 Injured When Big Army Truck Plunges From Bridge By Associated Press.

Demand For Labor Is Bigger Than the Supply In spite of the great number of discharged soldiers who are looking for employment, the director of the State Empoyment Bureau, Jacob Eightner, looks for a serious labor shortage very shortly. New roads beir.-g built by the State draw many of the men who like an outdoor life: Industrial plar.-ts running to capacity take many of them; the summer harvests are calling workers to the farms. Most of the requests for labor are of the unskilled type, al though many men in skilled mechan ical lines are being demar.-ded also. Boys' Band Goes Home After Several Concerts The Bowe's Boys' Brigade, of Du- Bois, started home this morning after spending two days here.
