Banishes Liquor From Terminals

The Pennsylvania railroad has de-
cided not to renew the licenses for the
sale of liquor in the Broad Street Sta
ton in Philadelphia and in the New
York Terminal Station. This re-
moves the last vestige of connection
of the Pennsylvania Railroad with
booze. Some years ago this roads
employees We're told to stay away
from saloons. In July, 1912, the road
ordered the abolition of rum on its
trains. Since that time no liquor has
been sold on Pennsylvania Railroad
trains. On May /, 1914, the liquor
branch of the roads restaurant in
Pittsburgh was abolished.
In the entire year of 1913 out of
7S4,675 observations made of 125, 900
employees, only 1853 cases were report
ed where disciplinary measures We're
taken in connection with the mems
touching liquor. Punishment ranged
all the way from reprimand to dis
missal.
In February, last year, 1926 OBJ
servations of the employees were made
without a single booze case being re-
ported. 1t looks rs though Prohibit
ton prohibits pretty well in the Penn
sylvania Railroad system.

 We are firmly of the belief that
 Fhe mental and physical anruish en-
 pured by Robinson have been fully Rnd perhaps more commendurate with

PLANS TO PREVENT
 GAS MAIN TROUBLE
Auxiliary Main to Be Laid Above Garland City on Red River for a Distance of Five Miles.
 Present Main to be Relaid.

It has been definitely decided to lay an auxiliary natural gas main for distance of five miles above Garland City, on the opposite side of the river from the present main, to eliminate as far as possible, danger of a repe- tition of the gas famine, according to H. L. Snyder, general superinten- dent of the Arkansas Natural Gas Company. Work of taking up five miles of 10-inch gas pipe near Ar kadelphia will be finished this week, and the pipe will be shipped to Gar land City next week. The perma- nent repair work will begin the foi- lowing week.
 The present main will be relaid from the Red River crossing in the same direction, but at greater dis tance from the ver, so that should another break occur in the levee there will be less water pressure along the line. Tie pipe will also be more firm ly anchored.
 The auxiliary line will begin on the south side of Red river, before the main crosses. It then will be laid for five miles on the side opposite from the regular line. A mile or two above the place where the break in the levee occurred it will be laid across Red river and connected with the main on this side.
 Officials of the Arkansas Natural Gas Company from Pittsburg, Penn, with MT. Snyder and engineers, spent several days at Garland City, going over proposed plans and examining conditions with which the company has to contend.-Arkansas Gazette.

PEACE WILL BE DE-
 HANDED OF MEXICANS
If Appeal is Ignored U. $. May
 Proceed to Promote Establish ment of Another Government
 be Supported by all Countries.

Washington, Aug. 3.-Prompt and determined action for the restoration of peace in Mexico is to be taken by the Washington administration in CO., operation with Central and South American governments, it was learn ed here tonight, although details of President Wilson's plan for ending the strife in the southern republic had not been given out.
 It is believed in official circles the first step proposed by the United States to it's conferes will be an ap- peal to Mexican leaders to end hos tilities and arrange for the restora- tion of a constitutional government by peaceful means. A time limit for compliance it is thought will be i'm posed.
 Should this be ignored the plan is said to include procedure to promote establishment by other factions of another government to be supported morally by the United States and other governments.
 Regarding the food situation in Mexico City it is believed demand will be made for immediate relief of the capitol and the maintenance of railroad and telegraph communica- tion between Mexico City and Vera Cruz. If Mexican leaders cannot ac- complish this it is thought possible the Latin-American governments may find it necessary to take control of the capital and railroad by force and hold it until peace is restored.
 Replying to questions today Sec retary Lansing said the sending of troops to Mexico City to take food to starving Americans and other for eigners could not be considered an act of war. It was learned tonight that President Wilson's determination to seek cooperation of the Central and South American governments in restoring peace in Mexico was reach ed last June.
 Announcement of the plan was held up until each of the diplomats had re ceived sanction of his government to participate in the conference to be held at the state department nex5 Thursday and it has been announced as informal and confidential.
 Reports from Vera Cruz tonight announced the formal entrance of General Carranza into Iexico City. Earlier official reports said telegraph ic communication with the capital had been restored for transmission of of ficial business. American Consul Sil- liman at Vera Cruz denied this later but the Associated Press received 6 direct report filed today at station a few miles outside of Mexico City telling of the arrival of food supplies
