, SUBMIT REPORT
OF INVESTIGATION
IN THE NEAR EAST
Syrians Hold That Palestine
Should Be Included
in Syria
By Associated Press
rnrls, Aug. 30. The report ot
Charles R. Crane and Henry C. King,
bearing on their investigation of
conditions in the Near East, has been
submitted to the American delega
tion in three sections. The first re
lates to Syria; the second to Mesopo
tamia, the third to non-Arabic speak
ing Turkey.
The report contains recommenda
tions as to mandatories, which the
two commissioners refuse to disclose,
but they discussed with the Associat
ed Press the results of their confer
ences with delegations throughout
6yria and other parts of Asia Minor.
Syrians Wnnt Palestine
The Syrians generally hold that
Palestine should be included in Syria,
to afford a united country, and oppose
the Zionist movement, under the con
tention that the Jews form only 10
per cent, of the population of Pales
tine at the present time, and the Mos
lems fear an influx from other coun
tries.
The Syrians and all other peoples
regarded the American mission as a
means of taking a plebiscite, and
frankly expressed their views, which
the commissioners say probably would
not have been possible had an inter
national mission gone to Asia Minor,
as the conference contemplated. The
French, however, refused to partici
pate in such a mission, and because
of French unwillingness, the British
withheld delegates.
Turks Favor Mnndntes
Apparently there is a majority sen
timent throughout Turkey favoring
foreign mandates as the best means
for rehabilitating the country, and,
except in portions of Lebanon, where
the French are favored, the commis
sioners assert, there seems to be an
overwhelming sentiment for a United
States mandate.
A joint British-French declaration,
which was circulated widely in Syria,
in November, 131J promising that the
people should be allowed to work out
their own government, made a marked
impression and the Syrians are rely
ing firmly upon this promise as a
guarantee that they will not be pre
vented from a free expression of their
will.
The American commissioners said
their report does not necessarily ad
vise a United States mandate for all
of Turkey, but It is believed from
their discussions, that they have re
ported that, in their opinion, much
more than Armenia and Constantino
ple should be included in the Ameri
can mandate, if the United States de
cides to accept it.

RAILROADER„ BACK
TO TRAINS AFTER
BROTHERHOOD VOTE
Members of Unions Decide to Go Back in California; Begin
to Take Out Trains at Seven O'clock This Morning
By Associated Press.
I,o* Angeles, Aug- 30.—Members of
the four local Brotherhoods, includ
ing trainmen, conductors, engineers
and firemen, are returning to work
to-day on the railroads of Southern
and Central California after being
out on strike.
At a vote late last night, it was de
cided by a two-thirds majority to re
turn to work at 7 o'clock this morn- j
ing. Early reports indicate that most
of the men are reporting for duty.
Engineers on the Southern Pacific,
Santa Fe and Salt Lake lines began
returning to work yesterday, and in
dications were that other trainmen
who have been on strike here would
return to-day, when the time limit
for their their return by Director
General of Railroads Hines expired.
' M. E. Montgomery, vice-president
HXIUUSBtTRG TEIJEGMJ>H
of the Brotherhood of Locomotive En- j
gineers, who has been in conference j
with the men, announced that he ex
pected the striking members of all |
crafts would be back on the Job and 1
that trains would bo running at 7
o'clock this morning.
What was regarded as a critical j
situation in the fruit transportation !
in the Fresno district was saved when j
the striking yard and switchmen de- j
cided to return. After a visit by A.
F. Whitney, a vice-president of the j
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, ■
striking workers at San Bernardino j
agreed to resume work.
The strike throughout the central |
California, which had paralyzed over- j
land and regional transportation for
two days, reached its final stages of j
collapse when the ward crews re- j
turned to the passenger and freight |
terminals in San Francisco.
Volunteers to Replace
U. S. Troops in Siberia
Washington, Aug. 30.—Secretary
Baker and Assistant Secretary Bong,
of the State Department, were ques
tioned by the House Foreign Affairs
Committee yesterday as to the policy
of retaining American troops in Eu
rope and Siberia and also as to re
ports that American soldiers were
to be sent to Silesia to police that
country during the plebiscite pro- :
vided for in the peace treaty.
Mr. Baker told the committee 1
that no decision had been made as
to sending troops to Silesia, but ;
that a brigade of regulars was to
be sent to Europe to replace units
of the First Division now being
I withdrawn. After the treaty is
| signed, the Secretary said, there will
' be about 10,000 combat troops and
20,000 service supply troops in Eu
rope.
Regarding the troops in Siberia, '
he said the selective service men
were to.be brought out as rapidly as
they could be replaced by volun
teers. Allied troops in that country, !
he said, numbered 4,6,000 Japanese, 1
1,450 Italian, 1,541 British and 1,- i
488 French. A majority of the
French troops are co-operating with ;
the Kolchak government, he said. '
Secretary Baker told the commit- [
tee that a large amount of ammuni- '
tion and a number of rifles manu- 1
factured in this country for Russia j
before that nation retired from the i
war had been sold to the Kolchak
government, the deal involving sev- !
eral millions of dollars. The first
payment of $1,000,000 on the ma- i
terial has been made, he said, and |
Serge Ughet, financial attache of
the Russian embassy, has pledged I
payment of the full amount.
Prohibition in England
Gets Big Backing
London, Aug. 30. "Pussyfoot
ing" is the term the newspapers and |
British liquor interests have given the
campaign to make England dry, and |
"pussyfeet" is the title they have given
those members of Parliament and Amer
ican Anti-Saloon League workers who
are pressing the movement.
It has been announced that there Is
abundant money behind the movement,
and the nucleus of a parliamentary
prohlbltoln party has been formed by
nine members of the House of Commons
to first fight for the retention of war
time liquor regulations while forming
their lines for more drastic action.
Most of the newspapers have done
nothing but ridicule the movement, nnd
urge that owing to the climate British i
men and women needed stimulants and
would never voluntarily relinquish their
alcohol.
Will Devote Millions
to Educate Belgians
Brussels, Aug. 30. The Belgian
Government has accepted the pro
posal of Herbert Hoover, director
general of the Inter-Allied Relief
organization, that the final assets
of tho Belgian Relief Commission,
amounting to about $16,000,000, be
devoted to the creation of a foun
dation for the higher education of
children of the workers and people
of limited means.
QUALITY TO BE
NEW POLICY OF
GERMAN TRADE
Manufacturers Plan to Aban
don the Production of
"Trashy Goods"
Coblenz, Aug. 30—German manu
facturers are planning to rehabili
tate their world trade by "a new
policy," according to a writer in the
Deutsclier Handel Warte of Nurem
berg. It contemplates nothing less,
ho says, than abandonment of the
"flooding" of foreign countries with
trashy goods."
Admitting that the outlook for
German exports is "unfortunate,"
in view of the progress in man
ufacturing made by Japan, America,
England and other countries, the
belief is expressed that those na
tions are so busy trying to increase
their industrial production that they
are becomming lax in the matters of
beauty, quality and price.
' Watching America
'America seeks to drive Germany
from the world markets," says the
article. "The Entente concerns it
self also with working against our
exports in neutral countries. Yet all
this cannot'scare us. It io thereby
made clear what boundless esteem
exists for German maunfacturers in
enemy countries. The goods which
are best, most beautiful and cheapest
win find their way Into other lands.

The New Department
To accommodate this new department, it was
necessary to enlarge our banking quarters.
These changes have been made and we now
announce that our Savings Department is ready
to open accounts and receive deposits.
Savings will be received on pass books, certifi
cates and on the weekly saving plan.
Savings accounts may be opened with one dol

Interest will be paid on deposits at the rate of
3% compounded semi-annually.
Balances below $5.00 will not draw interest.
Savings deposits are protected by all the assets
of this 87-year-old institution, which is a mem
ber of the Federal Reserve System.
Our present depositors and clients, and the
people of Harrisburg generally are cordially
invited to come in and start a savings account
with us now. We do not urge you to disturb
any savings account you may have elsewhere,
but suggest that you start a second one, or
take one out for another member of your family.
There cannot be too much thrift in these times.
Let us help you save. 1

competition which is alreay apparent
Retween England and America will
lie profitable for our exports. The
ten-year-long relations of our mer

build the bridge for our export trndo.

A LJttle Bit of History
Eighty-seven years ago a small group of Harris
burg men formed a new bank, the second bank
in town. The stock in the new bank was widely
sold to what was considered at that time a large
number of stockholders. They named the
new bank the HARRISBURG SAVINGS
INSTITUTION.
The new bank grew from the start. Its first
deposit was a checking account for $lOOO. and
its second a Savings Certificate for $lB9. From
that day to this the two features of the banking
business which have been carefully developed
here are the encouragement of savings and the '
providing of modern banking facilities.
In 1841 the name was changed to the
DAUPHIN DEPOSITE BANK and for 78
years remained the same, being changed only
slightly when the bank became a Trust Com
pany in 1905. The institution to-day has
assets of over four and one-half million dollars.
Of late years there has been an increasing de
mand from our depositors for some other form
of savings in addition to our Savings Certifi
cates. Therefore we are glad to announce today
that we have decided to instal a complete Sav
ings Department, as described in this adver
tisement.
fast banks are known and added 1
total Irish bank deposits will be seen
to be about £150,000,000.
The project of making Galway *
great trans-Atlantic port has been
revived. The scheme proposed would
cost £2,000,000 of which parties in
terested would put up £700,000 and
ask the government to supply the
balance. A deputation to the govern
ment has been arranged.
Since the Irish Housing Bill
passed through Parliament the local
authorities have submitted for tha
approval of the local government
board proposals for 224 sites com
prising more than 1,034 acres. Of
these 41 have been approved already
covering 789 acres and sufficing for
5,580 houses. The chief housing ac
