NEW BABY WEIGHS 23 POUNDS
1 Stork Plays Strange Tricks on Phila
delphia Couple
Philadelphia, April 21. —The stork
has played a freak trick in the house
hold of Michael Kline, who lives at
Seventy-fourth street and Glenmore
avenue. Five years ago the Klines were
presented with a little girl who weigh
ed only one and a half pounds at
birth, week the stork again vis
ited the Kline family. This time it left
a bouncing baby boy, who, when placed
upon the scales, tipped the beam at a
few ounces over 2'3 pounds. The new
baby weighs nearly us much as some
5-year-old children.
Margaret Kline, the tiny girl, holds
the record as the lilliputian of Pascli
alville. She took a prize at the Darlby
Business Men's carnival, two years
ago. Despite her size, she has thrived
and is a robust child.
The Klines now say they have the
smallest girl and the fattest boy in
Philadelphia.

cuss future development. Plans for
the bazar and spring festival which

U.S. POLAND RELIEF WORK
SUFFERS IN LACK OF GRAIN
I Berlin. Via London, April 21. —Ern-
est Bicknell, ot" the Rockefeller Foun
dation, and Elliott Wadsworth, of Bos
ton, in charge of American relief work
in Poland> are now working on the
problem of securing sufficient grain for
their task. They expect shortly to vis
it other European countries in search
for grain. A supply of maize is avail
able, but it is doubtful whether the
people in the stricken districts could be
taught to eat it.
The German and Austrian govern
ments have pledged $300,000 monthly
for the relief work, of which Austria
will give one-third. Mr. Bicknell says
this is tho minimum with which the
work can be started. Germany and
Austria have pledged themselves to
requisition neither foodstuffs nor mon
ey in Poland.
'Mr. Wadsworth and J. C. Gibson, of
the Belgian Relief Commission, will go
to Poland to study the situation and
organize the relief work. Americans
will be placed in charge of separate dis
tricts, with committees to aid them. A
large force will be required. The
Rockefeller Foundation will pay the ex
penses of the organization and for the
maintenance of the staff. The rest of
the money must be covered by dona
tions from other sources, mainly from
the United States. The amount re
quired, even with the contributions of
Germany and Austria, will be large.
The commencement of the relief meas
ures only awaits the securing of a sup
ply of grain.
SAYSCERMHEISNOW
PEINE DESIECEDDY FRENCH
London, April 21.—: A correspondent
of the "Times" in Eastern France,
summing up the fighting about the St.
Mihiel wedge, says:
"The net resnlt of the autumn and
winter campaign is that tho Germans
have lost their initial advantage of
attack and their line is now being be
sieged by the French.''
The correspondent emphasizes ttie
importance of the capture of Les Spar
ges, "in the teeth of the German Crown
Prince," and notes that the French
"are steadily pushing forward from
Verdun towards Metz." He says that
the strength of the German positions
in the Toul-Verdun barrier of fortresses
is now more apparent than real.
"It seems to be certain," he adds,
"that the Germans have begui. to with
draw their heavy guns from Camp Des
Romains. Confirmation of this would
be important because it would be im
possible for the French to occupy .St.
Mihiel, even if the rumors that the
Germans have evacuated it are true,
unless the Germans alao quitted Camp
Des Romains."
GUARANTEES SOCIALISTS
DEMAND AFTER WARISOVER
Berlin, Via London, April 21.
The "Vorwaerts" announces that at. a
conference of German and Austrian So
cialists held in Vienna it was agreed
that the following guarantees must be
secured after the war:
Internal arbitration courts must be
developed into obligatory tribunals for
settling all differences between nations.
All treaties and agreements of states
must bo subjected to the Democratic
parliamentary control of representative
assemblies.
International treaties for limitation
of armaments must be agreed upon
with a view to disarmament.
The rights of every nation to deter
mine its own destiny must be recog
nized.
Tho fact that Socialists of belliger
ent states are defending their country
in war must not be maide a barrier to
maintaining the international relation
ships of all Socialist parties or to ac
tivity in their international arrange
ments.
BUYING OF SEIZED SHIPS
ENCOURAGED BY FRANCE
Paris, April 21.—The French govern
ment yesterday promulgated a decree
designed to encourage .the development
of the French merchant marine by en
abling cteamship companies to acquire
vessels seized by Great and sold
•by prize courts.
For this purpose the French govern
ment guarantees to the British govern
ment 76 por cent, of the purchase price
of vessels thus sold.
WANTS A STATE BUILDING
ERECTED IN PHILADELPHIA
Senator Farley Has Plana to Have One
Put. Up on Boulevard to House
Various Branch Offices of the Gov
ernment That Are Now in That City
Senator Ff-rley, of Philadelphia,
would have a new State building in
1 hiladelphia, and to this end proposes
to have a commission .appointed to con
sider plans for a structure in that city
that, will furnish accommodations for
the various branches of State depart
ments now located theie. Senator
Parley has issued the following state
ment:
"It is my intention to present a
joint resolution for the appointment by
the Governor of a commission to con
sider plans for the erection of a State
administration building in Philadelphia.
The commission will serve without pay,
and there will be no provision for ex
penses. I havo no doubt, if the resolu
tion is'approved, that the Governor
will appoint citizens of high standing,
who will assure the public that a build
ing of moderate cost, and one that will
be free from the slightest taint of
graft, will be constructed. My person
al preference Is that the building be
located on the Parkway, and I havo no
doubt that tho commission will give
consideration to a site along the Boule
vard.
"At the present time the various
branches of the State government are
scattered about the city, and they
could well be placed under one build
ing, owned by tho State. , The Board
of Education has concluded that it
would pay to erect an administration
building, instead of spending huge
sums on rentals, anil the State should
do likewise. The Supreme and Supe
rior Courts arc now housed in the City
Hall, and no one can tell when Coun
cils may seek to evict them, in the
same way as the Board of Education
was called :ipon to find new quarters
for some of its departments.
"The State Highway department,
the Bureau of Labor and Industry, the
State Insurance Department, the De
partment of Health, the State Board
of Moving Picture Censors, the Live
Stock Board and various other parts of
the State government are compelled to
maintain branch offices in Philadelphia,
as in many instances they are forced
to give most of their attention to af
fairs in the city. . Under the circum
stances, it would be better for the
State to have an administration build
ing of its own in Philadelphia and save
money.'
