2 EARLY SOLUTION PROMISED LABOR BY SEC. WILSON American Standards Must Be Maintained, Postmasters Are Told Secretary of Labor William B. Wilson, speaking to three hundred members of the Pennsylvania State Postmasters Association last even ing at their banquet.in the Penn- Harris Hotel, said that an early solution of labor problems was a certainty. Mr. Wilson said that wo are now passing through a period of uncer tainty, but that there was no doubt of an early change from war to peace time conditions, just as we changed so rapidly the other way at the declaration of hostilities. The American standard must be main tained, according to Mr. Wilson, and the American laborer will see that 1 it is maintained. The Secretary of Labor went on to outline the Bolshevist movement in Russia and its relation to this country. That the movement in this country is broken there can be no doubt, he said. Speaking of the high cost of living, he predicted that the government would bring about a reduction in prices by going after the profiteer and hoarder. Mr. Wilson was the only sched uled speaker who was able to be present. Vance C. McCormick, chairman of the War Trade Board, A. Mitchell Palmer, Attorney Gen eral. and Postmaster General Burle son all sent telegrams expressing their regret at their inability to be present. The first speaker of the evening was Third Assistant Postmaster General A. M. Dockery, former gov ernor of Missouri. Mr. Dockery urged the vital importance of a speedy ratification of the treaty. He predicted a period of prosperity greater than the country has ever known, after the treaty is ratified. | HAD DANDRUFF I FORJX YEARS Hair Thin, Lifeless and Dry. Caticwa Heals.

I 400 SECOND ST. | HARDWARESMILL j SUPPLIES | FRIDAY EVENING, United States Senator Joseph T. Robinson, of Arkansas, made the final address. He assailed the op ponents of the League of Nations, and those who were arguing over the ratification of the treaty. The President deserves highest com mendation for the way in which he put through the treaty, said the senator from Arkansas. Senator Robinson has the peculiar distinc tion of having been within the period of sixteen days, congress man, senator and governor of his state. Closing hours of the Pennsylvania Postmasters' convention were given a decided political coloring by a speech by James I. Blakslee, fornftr secretary of the Democratic State Committee and now fourth Assistant Postmaster General, who twice took occasion in the course of his speech to boost Attorney General A. Mitch ell Palmer for President. Each time the convention rose and cheered. The postmasters adopted resolu tions praising the President, Post master General A. S. Burleson, whose letter of regret at inability to bo present was read later, and Mr. Pal mer. First Assistant Postmaster General John C. Koons warned the convention that while there might be an increase in salaries, it would not be us great as some wanted and that a 35 per cent increase would mean one hundred million dollars additional expense. Blakslee then spoke on the postal service as the saviour of the Nation and urged that the rural free deliv ery system he used to buy food di rect from farmers and suggested that some of the motor vehicles bought for war uses be provided for such purposes. He said that ho felt that the postmasters were ready to line up next year behind a Penn sylvanian and when the cheers had subsided decried attacks upon Pal mer, whom he said had performed public services second only to those of the President. Blakslee also crit icised the cost per mile of the bids the State has been receiving for road construction and said good roads and adequate compensation were needed for rural carriers. Demand German Officers Swear Allegiance to New Republican Constitution by Axuvciattfl Prers. Berlin, Thursday, Sept. 4.—The So cinlDemocratie Society of Breslau has adopted a resolution introduced in the National Assembly by Vice-President Loebe, demanding that all army of ficers Immediately take the oath to the new republican constitution and urging that those who refuse be dis missed from the army. Another resolution Introduced in the National Assembly calls upon the government to get rid of Gustav N'oske, minister of defense, who, It is said, "Is evidently unable to stem the tide of military reaction." The ap pointment of a "comrade capable of ending the military counter revolu tion, Is demanded. There is also a pro test before the National Assembly against the retention of the law pro viding for arrests during a period of martial law. This is taken as another indication that Herr Noske's regime is unpopular with the government and the Socialists. Hamburg, Thursday, Sept. 4.—The editor of the independent Socialist newspaper Volks Zeitung has been sentenced to jail for three weeks on a charge of having "insulted Gustav Noske, minister of defense," in an editorial. Wilson Seen as Ally of Universal Training Washington, Sept. s.—That Presi dent Wilson favors universal military training and supports the War De partment's army reorganization bill creating a peace time army of 576,000 is the belief of General Payton C. March, chief of staff. He told the House military affairs committee, furthermore, that world unrest, and steps taken by other lations to main tain strong military forces make it necessary for the United States to keep its relative strength. Ho de clared that if universal military train ing is adopted an army of the size propose! would be essential. CAPITOL PARK PLANS GIVEN CONSIDERATION [Continued From First Page.] the order from the Board of Pub lic Grounds and Buildings to go ahead. The Commonwealth under an act of Assembly will dedicate for the uses of the city such foot walks as may he necessary in the park along Walnut and Third streets. Mueh Wofik in Prospect In addition to the prospective street work along the Capitol Parit, Commissioner Lynch is proceeding rapidly to cover the highway work outlined for this season. Consider able paving is necessary in the vicinity of the new Edison school building at Eighteenth and Chest nut streets, and it will also be neces sary to pave the block in Chestnut, between Eighteenth and Nineteenth. The proposed loan for street paving of $50,000 will provide for other important street work contemplated for the 1920 program. In addition to the item in the loan ordinance providing for the transfer of $300,000 for the pro posed Walnut street bridge to the Memorial viaduct at State street, there Is an important loan item of SIOO,OOO for sewers. This sum will be utilized in general improvement of the sewage conditions of the city and will take care of the large sec tion embraced in the Thirteenth ward. It will also provide for the eventual annexation of Paxtang to the city. Another item which this loan will cover is an important main sewer along Asylum creek, which will provide a new sewer distribu tion point at Seventeenth and Cal der streets and afford an outlet for the State Police Barracks and other important buildings in that section. This loan will also take care of the big sewer necessary to reclaim the lowlands In the vicinity of Italian Park at Shamokln street. Unless and until this loan Is author ized no real relief can lie provid-.d for the big building developments which are contempated in several sections of Harrisburg, especially in the suburban districts. Another of the paving projects which is of Interest is the Herr street section, from Cameron lo Fourteenth, which will provide an outlet for the State Arsenal and the State Police Barracks. Of all the loans, however, none is more popular than that proposing $40,000 In the Kiester ordinance for bathing facilities. Under a resolu tion adopted by City Council, Park Commissioner Gross is directed to employ an expert who shall deter mine what Harrisburg should do in respect to proper bathing accom modations. It is expected that this expert will be engaged and make a study of the matter without de lay so the whole subject can be intelligently presented to the people before election. 25,000 Knights Templar to March in Parade Philadelphia, Sept. s.—With ar rangements completed for the en tertainment of the women relatives and friends who will accompany Knights Templar to the triennial conclave of the order which opens here Saturday night, special com mittees of local women, who will act as escorts for the visitors, an nounce that there will be no dull moments for the guests.
