MRS. THOMAS PETERS
SUES FOR DIVORCE
Wedding Twenty Years Ago Was
One Of Biggest Social Events
of Season

Mrs. Thomas S. Peters. of 1916
North Second street, has filed papers
with the Dauphin county court for di-
vorce from Thomas S. Peters, alleging
desertion as the cause. James Scar
lett and Fox and Geyer are Mrs.
Peters attorneys.
Mr.. and Mrs. Peters were married
about twenty years ago in Zion Lu-
theran church, Fourth street, in which
both were Jealous workers, by the
late Rev. DR.. David M. Gilbert. The
wedding was one of the largest social
event9of that season, attended by Sc
lect and common council in a body.
Mr. Peters was a member of common
council, prominent in Masons, Elks
and church work. Mrs. Peters was
Miss Agnis Doehne, the eldest daugh-
ter of George Doehne, the well-known
brewer of Chestnut street, and pop
ular in society. The couple have
three interesting children who are all
high school students and reside with
Mrs Peters, who is one of the heirs
of the large estate of her father,
George Doehne, who died about three
years ago, without having will.
The estate has never been settled
and this action will expedite what has
been long drawn out process. Mr..
Peters has been connected with one
of the large insurance companies with
headquarters in New York City for
some years. Both parties have many
friends in this city, where they have
always lived

PRESIDENT FELTON, RAPS
THE WILSON POLICIES

In a public statement yesterday e.
c. FELTON,, president of the Pennsylva-
mia Steel Company, discussing Presi-
dent Wilson's attitude toward business,
said:
"If President Wilson's policies won't
bear the light of day and won't admit
OF free discussion. that in itself is suffi-
cient to condemn them. The Presi-
dent should invite discussion of his
policies and should welcome criticism
of his administration. He is the head
of the people and as such should listen
to and encourage the expression of
the views of the people. For one man
to sit by himself and work out in his
loneliness these policies without con-
sulting the experience of those inter-
ests which his policies would affect is
assuming an attitude that is ridiculous.
There should be protest go up all
over the country over the interference
Of the Chief Executive to the free dis
cussion of matters that are of vital
Importance to the commerce, business
and life of the nation The Presidents s
attitude of suppression of criticism is
really outrageous. 1t is hard to realize
that the head of this free government
should attempt to stifle the voice of
the people"

SUNDAY CLOSING

To the Editor of The Telegraph:
l see announcement in morning
paper that, after two weeks grace, the
Civic Council of Churches will take
steps to close retail cigar and confec-
tionery stores. Notice, they mention peo-
pie in business of small proportions (and
who generally need more than what
who do business on larger scale and
are already well provided for. 1 con-
slider members of the organization op-
presSors of the poor. Were more Of
them the head of a family of eight they
would understand the law of necessity
better. But, by violating the laws Of
nature. and avoiding this RESPONSE
are unjust, inconsistent. I am willing
TO wager that most of those who are
hoWllng for Sunday observance, before
and after their devotions, ride on street
cars thus compelling others to work.
And: for the benefit of those who must
work alone, why not leave places open
where they can get refreshments and
other things which they desire. So long
as people are orderly, why interfere
with their personal liberty?
Again, why start on the little fell
lows" They may hope to increa Sc
their church membership (and | have
due respect for churches and their
members) by shutting things up."
Ihey Will increase club membership and
the treasury of the railroad companies
much faster than church membersbip,
churches? Make them so attractive and
dlsplay more of the true Christian spirit
