Will Replace Sewer
Commissioner Lynch introdu<Vd
ordinances appropriating $550 to pay
for replacing the old brick sewer In
Court street, just north of Chestnut,
and authorizing the opening and
grading of Paxton street front Eight
teenth to Twentieth streets. The
latter measure was petitioned for by
owners of property along the street.
Action on the ordinance directing
[a vote on a loan of $75,000 for a
I sewer in the Thirteenth ward, was
postponed to comply with provisions
in the election laws.
Upon motion of Commissioner S.
F. Hassler, J. Kenneth Stevens was
appointed assistant to the acting
chemist. Commissioner Hassler also
introduced the report of Health
Officer J. M. J. Raunick on the
progress being made to make Har
risburg a model health city. The
report was read.
Will Buy Equipment
After a short discussion Commis
sioner Hassler introduced an ordi
nance directing him to purchase
partial equipment for municipal ash
collections and appropriating $3,500
from the ash collection fund to pay
for the teams. Fifteen horses, nine
wagons, three carts, harness and
extra equipment are to be purchased.
The stable at Delaware and Logan
streets will be rented by the city.
Commissioner Hassler said that
from figures furnished by H. F.
Shcealey superintendent of the
bureau of municipal ash and garbage
inspection about $11,600 remained
in the ash collection fund. With
the purchase of a partial equipment
now, he said that a deficit of about
$4,500 will exist at the end of the
year, but without the equipment will
reach more than $B,OOO.
Lerter From Commerce Chamber
The lettc front the Harrisburg
Chamber of Commerce making the
offer to erect a Soldiers' and Sailors'
memorial for the city east of the
proposed State street bridge, was
read, after which a resolution was
introduced by Commissioner Lynch
and was passed finally.
The resolution follows;
"Whereas, the Chamber of Com
merce through Arnold W. Brunner,
the noted architect, has secured and
approved a plan for a Soldiers' and
Sailors' Memorial, to be located on
State street east of Thirteenth street,
the expense of which is to be de
frayed by popular subscription and
which proposed memorial has already
received a large measure of public
approval; and
"Whereas, the Chamber of Com
merce has requested City Council to
approve the project, and to assure
the making of the necessary street
changes and the maintenance of such
memo'.'ial, after its completion, as a
part ~f the city's park system; and
"Whereas, it is highly proper that
citizens shall have an opportunity
to erect a memorial distinctively
evidencing the civic appreciation of
the soldiers and sailors from its
midst who played such a noble and
heroic part in the World War, which
memorial will be a fitting adjunct
to the Soldiers' and Sailors' mem
orial bridge proposed to be con
structed by the Commonwealth of
I ennsylvania in this city; now there
fore
"Resolved, That the memorial
proposed by the Chamber of Com
merce be and the same is hereby
approved.
-"That the city of Harrisburg pro
bear the expense of the necessary
street changes, exclusive of those
required to be made by public serv
ice corporations.
That the city of Harrisburg pro
vide for the taking over and main
tenance of the memorial, upon its
completion, as a part of the city's
park system."
Buoys Mny Have Bell*
Commissioner Hassler explained to
the other Councilmen the design of
a proposed buoy which he recom
mended to be placed in the Susque
hanna river Just above the dam at
the lower end of the city. Sheet
metal plates, with "danger" painted
on them, and placed on heavy wooden
beams to lie anchored in the river
above the dam. will be used. A bell
will probably be attached to each
buoy also. Dr. Hassler said he will
purchase five or six of the buoys him

SERVICE BUTTONS
FOR MEN IN WAR
ARE GOING OUT
Necessary to Present Honor
able Discharge to Obtain
Honor From Nation
The local recruiting office in this city
Is working overtime to keep up all its
activities. The thing at present which
is taking up all their spare time is the
distribution of the bronze and silver
buttons for service. And in connection
with this, a very unfortunate practice
has been discovered by the officers of
the station.
To obtain a button, It is necessary
to produce a certificate of honorable
discharge from the Army. The silver
button is given to those who have a
wound entry on the certificate. Many
cases have been discovered the last few
days at the locai office of men from
Harrisburg and vicinity who have en
deavored to put one over on the local
office by erasing the "none" opposite
the wound entry and attempting to
write In a number of wounds.
These substitutions are perfectly ob
vious and in a number of eases Colonel
Kemper has refused to Issue the but
tons. If nny further attempts of this
kind are discovered, it is the intention
to announce the names and addresses
of those who in so cheap and low manner
try to make use of the Insignia which
show that a man has been honorably
wounded In the service of his country.
Another matter of considerable in
terest to men who have recently re
turned is that of 11 victory campaign
medal for service. As yet, ihe govern
ment has not issued any order to the
effect that any ribbon may be worn,
but in spite of this soldiers are daily
seen with gaudy riuhons all over their
chests. Recently, however, n eontraet
has been awarded to an Allentown
firm to turn out 675.000 yards of the
ribbon as desired : this ribbon Is mnde
up of the six basic colors of the spec
trum blended gradually. Both the
United States and all the Allied nations
are to have the same kind of Victory
medal, which is to go with the ribbon,
the general design of which is to be as
follows; A winged victory on the ob
verse and on the reverse the inscription
"The Great AVar for Civilization" and
the names and arms of the Allied and
associated nations.
This medal is to be awarded to all
officers, enlisted men. Army nurses
and field clerks who served for at least
fifteen days at any time between April
6. 1917. and November 11, 1918. in the
Army of the United States. To show
battle service, service clasps will be
awarded for each engagement. These
will he indicated on the ribbon itself
by a smalt bronze star. The engage
ments as designated by General Per
shing are as follows: Somme defen
sive, March 21-April 6 ; I,ys defensive,
April 27 ; Aisne defensive, May 27-
June 5 : Montdidier-Noyon defensive,
.Tune 9-13 : Champagne-Marne defen
sive. July 15-18; Aisno-Mnrno offensive,
July 18-August 6; Somme offensive.
August 8-November 11 ; Oise-Aisne of

Lys offensive, August 19-Xovember 1 ;

Meuse-Argonne offensive, September

Veneto, Italy, October 24-November 4,

Further announcements of the Vic
tory medal and any other campaign
ribbons will be made from the rcrult
ing office as soon as information Is ob
tained about them.
OFFER IS MADE OF
MONEY TO HELP
[Continued from First rage.]
city authorities in any possible way
to compel those who now are selling
at exorbitant prices to lower their
rates."
The increase in the price of bread,
announced yesterday, is not confined
to Harrisburg. Consumers who
have carefully been watching the
situation report that the movement
is general in several sections of the
State. Furthermore, they believe
there is no just ground for it. One
groceryman, whose sales fell off dur
ing the day, customers preferring
to buy from a concern that had an
nounced it would sell bread at the
old price, showed his feeling by
saying that just as it seemed he
was building up a nice trade, along
comes a boost in the price of bread.
Something Should lie Done
"I want to make all the money
I can honestly," he said, "but I
can't see for the life of me why
there should be an advance at this
time. The raise in price, to my way
i of thinking, is due to a concerted

movement on the part of bakers
throughout the State who probably
see an opportunity to Increase their
profits at the expense of the con
sumer. Something ought to be done.
Surety, there is some way to roach
these firms that combine to increase
the price of the necessities of life.
It seems to me one way if it can
be done, would be to compel each
wholesaler to obtain a license and
be under the supervision of a State
ofllcial who would determine by an
inquiry that would be fair~to both
consumer and baker whether or not
the price is fair. You may be mi re
it isn't the retailer who is responsi
ble for the inerensed price.
Two Sides to Question
"Of course, there are two sides
to the question. -If the bakers are
at the mercy of workmen who will
not continue to hako unless their
wages are raised it would seem
something must be done to meet the
demands of the workmen, hut the
boosting of "food prices is so con
tinuous as to raise a doubt in the
minds of those who are fn touch
with conditions as to whether the
increase is to meet the demands of
labor or whether it is just a plain
move to increase profits at the ex
pense of an already Overburdened
public."
Other grocers who get their bread
from firms that have announced in
creases in price contented them
selves by saying: "Well, the price
has been raised on us and we must
pnss it along to the consumer or
sustnin losses for the benefit of the
baking concerns."
At the Standard Baking Company
this afternoon it was again said no
rise in price would be made, at least
for the present, as there seemed to
be no reason why prices should soar.
The only thing which would cause
a jump, according to the Standard, is
a rise of flour prices, and th°y have
on hand enough flour to last for sev
eral months more at least.
The Schell bakery had the same
statement to make. No reason was
given by them for the rise in priee
by other concerns. The conditions
seems to prevail throughout town as
in these two bakeries.
The Ounsenhauser Bakery declined
to make any further statement other
than that made last night, in which
Mr. Gunxenhauser said that the rise
of prise had been contemplated for
some time and was an essential
measure.
Peter Hoffman, 420 Relly street,
one of the oldest and best known
bakers in the uptown section of the
city, said that there would be no
change at all in his standard price
of nine cents a loaf. Hoffman's Bak
ery is an old established institution,
and one of the most popular in tho
city.
WILL NOT CALL WILSON
BEFORE COMMITTEE
[Continued from First l'agc.]
Committee should decide whether it
desired to discuss the Treaty with
htm.
The Foreign Relntlons Committee
later adopted a resolution requesting
the President, if not incompatible
with the public interest, to furnish
the committee virtually all docu
ments considered by the American
seace commissioners in their work
on the Treaty with Germany.
It was said that the resolution,
of which Senator Johnson, Repub
lican, California, was author, was
adopted by virtually unanimous vote
and that action by the Senate was
not considered. It requests the
President to submit drafts of all pro
posals for a League of Nations as
well as stenographic transcripts of
formal proceedings at the Feace
Conference.

Cars Chief Need For
Successful "Y" Picnic;
Leaders Are on Mettle
Cars and more cars is the cry of
tho committee In charge of arrange
ments for the big "Y" picnic which
Is to be staged on Thursday. Up
to the present there arc not enough
motors at the disposal of the com
mittee to. successfully haul all the
guests to the party. It is especially
urged that persons contribute their
cars for that lialf-day so that the
wounded men who are coming down
from Carlisle to join the party may
not have to ride out beyond Dauphin
In trucks. They're not in Franco
now!
"Doc" Miller Is getting all set for
tho big day and says it's going to
absolutely make all the natives of
Dauphin county sit up and take
notice. Henderson Gilbert is also
prepared to put on somo of the stuff
that mudc the party last year tho
big success that it was.
Jack O'Neill says the last party
won't be in it for pep, speed, general
jubilation, and eats, especially the
eats. The weather man has been
bribed and all will be rosy—lf some
kind gentlemen will only kick
through with a few more automo
biles.
