President Wilson was sufficiently recovered to day from his indisposition to re sume conferences with Republican senators at the White House with out objection from Rear Admiral Cary T. Grayson, his personal physi cian. Admiral Grayson said the Presi dent was in no pain, but that he was still extremely weak. "The President is sitting up and now receiving a caller," said Ad miral Grayson, "and he probably will be up at least until lunch time. He was very anxious to get to work this morning and I thought it would do him no harm to see one or two people. It depends upon how he feels in middle of the day whether he goes back to bed again this afternoon." The President went into confer ence at 10 o'clock with Senator Edge, of New Jersey, and he hoped to fill other engagements which he was forced to defer yesterday be cause of an acute attack of intes tinal trouble which developed upon his return from a week-end trip down the Potomac. Not Possible to Tell of Loss to Wheat "It would be impossible to say at this time either in terms of money or quantity the damage done to the wheat crop of Pennsylvania by weather or pests," said Secretary of Agriculture Fred Rasmussen to day. "We cannot even approxi mate it and definite information on the less will take weeks to collect." "We do know that in many sec tions of the State the continued rains without any period interven ing to permit the stalks to dry has caused wheat to sprout in the shock and some of this will be a loss," continued the Secretary. In Central Pennsylvania, for instance, some wheat was found to have bad ly sprouted from this reason, but in nearby fields not to have been much affected. Again, some wheat may look well or poor when in the shock and turn out to be poor or sound. It is hard to tell now. Fortunately, there was more wheat threshed in the fields this year than ever be fore and this is a gain. The wheat that had to be shocked we can not tell about yet. We are trying to find out. "I do not think that the damage to corn by storms has been so great unless the leaves were strip ped off and the reports do not in dicate that. There is a big acre age in corn and unless storms de stroy the stalks it should be a good crop. John M. Reese Dies in His 83rd Year John M. Reese, aged 82 years, a retired Pennsylvania railroad em ploye. died early this morning at the home of his daughter, Mrs. F. P. Strock. 11 oa Green street. He had been ill bint a short time.

The declaration, in the form of a resolution by Senator Knox. Rep ublican, Pennsylvania, was adopted without a record vote, though the committee previously had divided eight to seven in favor of substi tuting the Knox proposal for one which would have left open the question of the President's authority. In this vote Senator McCumber, Republican, of North Dakota, joined the Democrats in the negative. A motion by Senator Hitchcock, Democrat, of Nebraska, to add later a declaration of the President's power to act, was lost 9 to 6, Sena tor McCumber voting with the Rep ublicans. Would Embroil U. S. Declaring it is not the League of Nations but the big five to which the Peace Treaty gives responsibility for effecting the terms of peace, Sen ator Moses, New Hampshire, a Rep bulican of the Foreign Relations Committee, told the Senate that by accepting the role of a principal power as defined in the Treaty the United States would embroil itself for many years to come in European troubles. The senator said that while the League Covenant was bad enough, other provisions of the Treaty were worse. Urges Acceptance Supporting the League of Nations in a speech to-day Senator McNary, Republican, Oregon, urged it be ac cepted without any such amendments or reservations as would "alter the splendid purposes of the Covenant or weaken it so far as it affects our duties." The Senate, said the speaker, could without harm adopt certain "reserva tions in the form of interpretations,"' but should not endanger the Coven ant by making reservations that would vitally affect important feat ures. Article ten, he said, must be unimpaired because it was the "pil lar section" of the League. PROHIBITION BILL PASSES THE HOUSE [Continued from First Page. ] dollars' worth of liquor, which a member likened to "one white chip in a steamboat poker game," con sidering the high cost of the product in the closing days of the bar. The House defeated this proposal. With this out of the way. Repre sentative Raker, Democrat, Califor nia. offered an amendment to make it unlawful to have liquor if one's own dwelling. Chairman Volstead opposed it, and when the vote was called, only three members, all of them Democrats, supported the amendment —Mr. Raker and Rep resentatives Blanton, Texas, and Upshaw, Georgia, the latter an evangelist. This section was amended, how ever, so as to provide that such liquors must be for personal con sumption by the owner of the dwell ing or his family or bonafide guests. This restriction, put in by Repre sentative Steele, Democrat, Penn sylvania, was aimed at the man who might turn his dwelling into a sa loon. Several amendments were adopt ed, these including one by Repre sentative Igoe, Democrat, Missouri, making provision for the handling of sacramental wine, which the bill had failed to do. Representative Siegel, Republican. New York, put through one providing that men dis charged from the military and na val service be given first call in ap pointing agents to enforce the law. An amendment by Mr. Igoe which would make valid the defense of a person charged with violation of the prohibition law if he proved that such liquor or beverage was not in toxicating was defeated 78 to 36. BANK CASHIER FROM UPPER END [Continued from first Page.] bered there by many friends who were shocked to-day to read of his confession of guilt in connection with the bank failure. Commissioner of Banking John S. Fisher said to-day when informed that Cashier Ralph T. Moyer, of the North Penn Bank had surrendered to the district attorney at Philadel phia. that further information in the affairs of the bank would have to come from the district attorney. He declined to say whether there would be any more arrests, refering in quirers to the district attorney. Seek Pardon For Yank Who Painted Hun Flag on Statue Washington. July. 22.—Represent ative Wood, Republican, Indiana, yesterday introduced a resolution to grant, amnesty to Charles A. Mc- Anally, a private in the Army, who recently was sentenced to six months' imprisonment 'after being convicted of painting the German colors on the statue erected by the Daughters of the Confederacy at Andersonville. Ga., to Henry Wlrz, commander of the prison located there in the Civil War. The resolution declares McAnally to have been actuated by patriotic motives and to have been ignorant that he was committing any wrong In painting the statue of "the arch enemy of the Civil War."

The most unfortunate conditions were those where it was discovered that defective toilets backed up and caused damp yards, cellars and bad odors. In several places this condi tion occurred where children played in the yards and naturally enough it was not the most healthy play ground for the growing citizens of our community. Another need which the workers* will endeavor to meet is that of screens. Numerous cases have been reported, in which the houses not only have no screens for their win dows, but ulso no screen doors and in these days of torrid weather the tiles can have free access to ever* part of the house. As everyone knows, the fly is the worst carrier of diseases that we know, and if the children of Harrisburg are to be allowed to have a perpetual swarm of flies hovering about them, is it .any wonder that we have had so much sickness? The plan has been for the Boy Scouts to see to the placing of the screens and fly traps since they are the ones at present most active in the "Swat the Fly" movement The Mosquito Pest Still another cause of disease is the mosquito, and the way in which some of the real estate owners of Harrisburg are permitting vacant lots to grow rank with high weeds is designated by the committee as a disgrace to the community. Dr. J. M. J. Raunick, city health officer, is taking the greatest inter est in the campaign and has prom ised to do everything in his power to help out. All the reports of the investigations made with a view to alleviating uncomfortable living con ditions are presented to him, and he either takes immediate steps or advises what should be done. Dr. Raunick is also keenly interested in keeping an eye on the milk supply, i This is another matter of interest for 1 those investigating. Some of the , mothers of the city do not realize | the importance of good milk for their children, and Dr. Raunick, through his agents, is laboring in- I defatigabl.v to teach them. It is expected that health centers will be established in two sections of town just as soon as sufficient funds can be raised to carry on the work of these centers. Already several dentists have offered their free as sistance for the people who may wish to hav their children's teeth taken care of; many doctors of the city have generously signified their intention of following suit. So it is an assured fatt that before very long Harrisburg is going to have an organization that will take care of its youngsters that will give them the proper startoff in life and keep them happier and healthier and de cidedly better young citizens in every way. Colonel Martin, as State Health Commissioner, is determined to make Harrisburg an ideal commun ity from the standpoint of health and sanitation and all his lieuten ants are lined up enthusiastically behind him.

JULY 22, 1919. FLETCHER TELLS OF OUTRAGES [Continued from First Page.] greater number of outrages affect ing Americans. Furnishes Facts The ambassador was summoned before the committee in connection with a resolution proposing appoint ment of a Joint congressional com-' mittee to investigate relations be tween this country and Mexico. Air. Fletcher repeatedly declined to express opinions upon conditions in the southern republic, insisting he furnish only facts. "Do you regard the situation in Mexico as improved in the last three years?" asked Chairman Campbell. "Yes." "Ir t what respect?" "Columbus has not been raided," the ambassador answered. When Chairman Campbell called attention to the recent murder of an American citizen and the mal treatment of his wife in Mexico, the ambassador said this did not involve relations between the United States and Mexico. El Paso, Tex., July 22.—When shown the Assoc.ated Press dispatch from Washington quoting Senator Fall as saying that "within the last several months upon either seven or eight occasions troopers of the Sev enth cavalry pursued Mexicans over the border and upon six or seven occasions recovered stolen property," Brigadier General James B. Erwin, commanding the El Paso district, reiterated his statement that he had received no reports of any Mexicans in Carranza uniforms having been found. Washington, July 22.—The Mexi can situation occupied the attention of both the legislative and executive branches of the government yester day. Call Upon Fletcher During the day a number of Sen ators and Representatives called at the State Department to confer with Henry P. Fletcher, the American Ambassador to Mexico, while the Senate Foreign Relations Committee ordered favorably reported the res olution calling on the State Depart ment for full information as to depredations against American citi zens and property in Mexico during recent years. On the Senate floor, Senator Fall, Republican, New Mexico, re iterated previous statements thai among Mexicans killed by American soldiers in repulsing raids across the border during the past few months were officers and men in uniforms of the Mexican Federal Army. He read a telegram giving the names of some of the Carranza officers and men killed by the Americans. "If U. S. Can't Guard Border, Let Us Do It," Texas Asks Congress Austin, Tex., July 22.—Without debate the Texas Senate adopted a concurrent resolution calling the at , tention of the President and Con gress to the "guerilla warfare that has prevailed along the Texas-Mex ican border since 1875," and asking the Federal government if it can not protect the border to "accord to Texas that liberty of action" in pro tecting its citizens that the repub lic of Texas enjoyed prior to the time, that it "In good faith became a State of the Union." The effect to be attained through such "liberty of action," according, to the resolution, is "that Texas may take such steps as may be necessaiy for the protection of its border." The resolution recites border in cidents since 1875, which have been "intensified during the last nine years," during which period citizens of Texas "have been murdered, their property stolen or destroyed and the people of this State made to suffer the outrages of guerilla warfa re." NIGHT LIFE STOPS WITH BARS CLOSED [Continued from First Page.] reported to-day that their business almost is nil at night. They formerly reaped their harvest in the middle of the night. "Owl" Cars Empty Because there is nothing to keep a man out of bed all night long with "hard liquor" cut off the "owl" cars operated by the Harrisburg Railways Company uptown and on the Hill have a deserted air compared with former months. Formerly they were well filled but now they carry few but workingmen on their way to the Pennsylvania and Reading yards. While the number of arrests made have fallen off in an unprecedented manner because of the lack of drunk and disorderly charges the police to day are particularly impressed with the manner, in which other forms of vice have attracted fewer adher ents. The score of professional gam blers who made Market street their headquarters for years in the main now are engaged in gambling among themselves. There are fewr cases of street walking to report. The police added that of course the millenium has not come and that every center of vice and loose living in the city consequently has not been cleaned up.

Try One To-day 1 United States District Attorney Kane in Philadelphia that the Government had notified him that prosecutions will follow the sale Of beer, it was rumored that agents for the Depart ment of Justice are to visit Harris burg. This could not be verified, however, as U. S. Marshal Harvey T. Smith said that he had received no instructions from Washington. Mr. Kane made public in Phila delphia the following portion of his instructions: "You publicly announce that you have been instructed to prosecute all persons who have manufactured and sold beer contain ing as much as one-half of one per cent, of alcohol." It was added that Department of Justice agents have been sent into Philadelphia and that arrests will te made this week. Several local hotelmen said that they will continue sell the two and three-fourth per cent, ber until they have received some further notice. They announced they are willing to face a SI,OOO fine with the defense that the ber they are selling is non intoxicating and therefore beyond the reach of the war-time prohibi tion order. LOWER PRICES FIXED FOR WAR SUPPLIES [Continued from First Page.] meats and canned goods is arranged, like their fellow laborers in Altoooa they, too, will lend a helping hand. Many volunteers have already turned up. Plans Later The plan for distribution will be announced as soon as it is known positively that Harrisburg will get a carload of food. Trucks will no needed to distribute the goods and it is said offers have been made for truck service. Captain Stine. who has been col lecting information regarding prices, expected to hear from Lieu tenant Boyle this afternoon, and may call a meeting of his subcom mittee to-morrow. On the new list to be submitted will be canned vegetables. Prices for these goods have been quoted from various cities and It is said there is very little difference to the prices quoted by Lieutenant Boyle. That there will be an advantage in getting tho food at New Cumberland, because of a saving in freight and other costs, is the general belief among the local committeemen. niiBBERSTAMpn L U SEALS &STENCILBI W | HARRISBfeSTENGILWORKS |1 1 1133 LOCUST BT, HARRIS EfG.
