HOVERTER WILL BE CITY'S NEXT MAYOR [Continued from First Page.] Harrisburg if our public afTairs are properly handled and if we take full advantage of the opportunities the war has given us. I look forward to the time when Harrisburg will be the third city of the State in popu lation, just as it now is from an in dustrial and a transportation stand point, But this will not just hap pen. It will not come about unless we, the people of the city, do our part. We must not only endeavor to procure new industries for Harris burg, but we must make here a city that will appeal to the man looking for an industrial home. We must go on as we have been going, making this an attractive place in which to live as well as to do business. And in this respect I have noted, in get ting around the city during the past month or two, that while our build ers have done splendidly this year in the construction of additional houses under difficult conditions, there is still a great housing shortage. I want to say that, as mayor, any movement designed to erect a large number of houses to be rented or sold at reasonable cost will have my hearty support. I believe that de cent, good-looking homes at rea sonable rentals constitute the great- llaffli&Hvtnedii N?

Interested in City Alderman Hoverter is deeply in terested in everything pertaining to the growth of the city. "No man could go through an experience in Select Council, as I did, during the time when the first great public im provement campaign was in full swing," he said to-day, "without im bibing some of the splendid spirit that our lawmaking bodies and the citizenship in general showed at that time, and I am free to say that I have lost none of my enthusiasm for Harrisburg since. During all my forty years of residence in the city I have been interested in its growth and development, but I am perfectly aware that it requires more than enthusiasm to make the city govern ment move forward and at the same time keep it within the bounds of reasonable revenues. I have no foolish theories to work out, but I have very definite ideas as to what the mayor of a city like this should do. I believe he ought to be a lead er in every worthy plan for the ad vancement and betterment of Har risburg, but I also think that he ought not to give his endorsement to any plan without first consider ing the cost and finding if it comes within the ability of the taxpayer to meet. Government of all kinds, even with the best intentions in the world, has come to be very costly during the war, and the whole coun try must, whether we want to or not, get down to real business again if we are not to run hopelessly into debt. This is no criticism of any body, nor is the view solely mine. Every man with whom I have talked feels the same way. Economy, af ter the extravagance of the war, must be the watchword of the hour. We must spend wherever it is neces sary to spend, but we must also count the cost and save for the city every cent that it is possible to save. 1 Promises a Clean Business Administration JIB i B| GEORGE A. HOVERTER "To that end I propose to conduct my own police hearings. My ex perience as alderman of the Ninth wards fits me, I think, very well for that work, and I shall not shirk it. I believe the people ought to have the six or seven thousand dollars I can save for them in that way and I mean that they shall have it." Alderman Hoverter has been get ting about the city quietly and has met thousands of voters. Every where he has been met in the most kindly way. His progressive attitude and his ideas of economy in admin istration of public affairs have ap pealed mightily to the rank and file and, as he says, the indications are that he will have a sweeping ma jority next Tuesday. WILSON FIXES PRICE OF COAL [Continued from First Page.] was to prevent profiteering or in creases. By states the prices are for run of mine, prepared sizes and slack or screenings, and vary according to the mine. They are the same as those in effect January 31, 1918. The lowest and higher prices by states were announced as follows: Alabama, $2.45 to $4.35. Colorado, $1.60 to $4.60. Illinois, $2.05 (lowest). Kentucky, $2.30 to $1.50. Ohio, $2.65 to $3.65. Pennsylvania, $3.25 to $3.65. Tennessee, $2.75 to $4.50. West Virginia, $2.45 to $3.00. Virginia, $2.10 to $3.00. It was explained that while labor naturally opposed Government by injunction, in this case the Govern ment was moving for the public wel fare. Inquiry was made at the White House as to the Government's plan of action after the Department of Justice refused to discuss the pur pose of Assistant Attorney (general Ames' visit to Indianapolis. Applications for injunctions will shift the Government's fight to the heart of the coal field territory and will actually mean the first offensive warfare to prevent industrial chaos by the closing of the soft coal mines. Frequent meetings of the Cabinet will be held to keep in touch with the situation here. His Order The President's executive order follows: "Whereas, the United States Fuel Administrator acting under the au thority of an executive order issued by me dated the twenty-third of August, 1917, appointing the said Fuel Administrator and of subse quent executive orders, and in fur therance of the purpose of said or ders and of the Act of Congress there in referred to and approved August 10, 1917, did on January 31, 1919, and on February 20, 1919, execute and issue orders suspending until further order by the President certain rules, regulations, orders and proclamations theretofore promul gated relating to the fixing of prices, the production, sale, shipment, dis tribution, apportionment, storage and use of coal, and where as it is necessary to restore and maintain during the war certain of said rules, regulations, orders and proclama tions: "Now, therefore, I, Woodrow Wil son, President of the United States of America, acting under authority of the aforesaid act of Congress, ap proved August 10, 1917, dc hereby revoke and annul said orders of | January 31, 1919, and February 20, 1919, to the extent necessary to re store all of the said rules, regula tions, orders and proclamations therein suspended concerning: "(a) Fixing prices of bitumin ous and lignite coal at the mines', "(b) Fixing or regulating com missons of persons and agencies per forming the functions of middlemen dealing in bituminous and lignite coal; (c) Fixing or regulating gross margins or prices of wholesale and retail dealers in bituminous and lig nite coal; and, do hereby restore all of said rules, regulations and proc lamations to the ejetent herein pro vided, to full force and effect, as if they had not been suspended. "Inasmuch as it is contemplated that it may be necessary from time to time to revoke other portions of said orders of January 31, 1919, and February 20, 1919, and to restore to full force and effect rules, regula tons, orders and proclamations or portions thereof regulating the pro duction, sale, shipment, distribution, apportionment, storage for use of bituminous and lignite coal, the Fuel Administrator shall as occasion arides restore, chunge or make such rules or regulations relating to the pro duction, sale, shipment, distribution, apportionment, storage or use of bituminous and lignite coal as in his judgment may be necessary.

GERDES IS SAFE IN VLADIVOSTOK [Continued from First Page.] fraternity, and enlisted in the United States Army from Chicago campus, attending the ordnance school; and winning his second lieutenant's com mission in Camp Meade. He was made first lieutenant in Siberia. George Shaffer a former Harrlsburg er, now a writer on the Chicago Trib une has the following to say about Lieutenant Gerdes: On Captive List "After being on the list of the American Expeditionary forces In Si beria for three weeks as a captive of the Bolshevlkl, along with the Amer ican vice-consul at Ekaterinburg, an American Red Cross officer, and 10 doughboys. First Lieutenant Paul William Gerdes, former University of Chicago basketball and baseball play- I er, showed up at Omsk on a 9,000- mile mission of Inspection along the BAMUHBURG TELEGR3UPEC trans-Siberian lines from Vladivostok to the Ural mountains and return. Word of Gerdes' safety has Just been received in this pity. "The officer received orders June 2 to leave the next day for the Ural mountains for a trip supposedly of two months. The trip actually took nearer four months, and in point of time and distance was the longest made by an American officer in the expeditionary forces in Siberia. Psya Tribute to Kolchak "Gerdes was in Ekaterinburg dur ing its evacuation by the forces fight ing the Reds, and it was at this time that the last little cluster of Ameri cans was supposed to have been tak en prisoner. "It took three weeks for the Yanks to make their way to Omsk, where they were Just in time to counter mand cables of their capture from Vladivostok. Gerdes familiarized himself with the making of the new arti-Red army, and in letters pays high tribute to the work of Admiral Kolchak In holding the army, and in fact the whole country, from turning to the side of the Bolshevikl. Not Nice to Reporters "Gerdes, who is awaiting his sail ing date to return to this city, rapped stories sent from Siberia by war re porters for eastern papers. These men have written their accounts from chairs in Vladivostok, he said, and their stories are not accurate reflec tions of conditions in interior Si beria." A. F. OF L.

Dr. H. A. Garfield said that the plans contemplated that all ques tions of allocating coal would be left to Director General Hines for settlement. The former, as fuel ad ministrator, will give his authority to Mr. Hines' orders, but will not remain in Washington to undertake supervision of the work. Dr. Garfield said that the point had not yet been reached necessi tating curtailment of industries, but if it is necessary eventually the cur tailment list prepared by the fuel administration for the War Indus tries Board during the war probably would be used. The war industries on that list, of course, he explained, would not get the treatment they did during the war, and might be cut off altogether. Price control over anthracite, the administrator emphasized, would not be exercised at this time. He made the statement regarding anthracite to correct a previous assertion that the control would cover prices of both soft and hard coal.

Medical authorities state that nearly nine-tenths ot the cases ot stomach trouble, indigestion, sour ness, burning, gas biouting, nausea, etc., are due to an excess of hydro chloric acid in the stomach and not as some believe to a lack of diges tive juices. The delicate stotnach lining is irritated, digestion is delay ed and food sours, causing the dis agreeable symptoms which every stomach sufferer knows so well. Artificial digestents are not needed in such cases and may do real harm. Try laying aside all digestive aids and instead get from any druggist a few ounces of Bisurated Magnesia and take a teaspoonful in a quarter glass of water right after eating. This sweetens the stom ach, prevents the formation of excess acid and there Is no sourness, gas or pain. lJlsurated Magnesia (ln powder or tablet form—never liquid or milk) is harmless to the stomach, inexpensive to take and is the most efficient form of magnesia for stom ach purposes. It is used by thous ands of people who enjoy their meals with no more fear of indigesUon. which the people of Harrlsburg are setting aside for a permanent and lasting soldiers' memorial.
