 Berlin, Tow. 22-The Overseas Agency characterizes the commercial blockade of Greece by the entente powers a. an tact of violence against 9, small neutral country which intends to maintain neutrality without en- gazing in intrigues." The blockade, it, says, agrees exceedingly well with the practice of the entente views in regard to the questions affecting the sovereignty of small nations.
 London4 Nov. 22-The informal commercial blockade of Greece is de- scribed by the Pail Mall Gazette to- day t'the first installment of the only medicine which can cure King Constantine's affliction." The Ga zette adds:
 The one argument to which Con stantine is amenable is a dem onstra- tion that the allies are armed with more than amiability and are ready and able toA punish those who play tricks with them. We have seen enough to convince us we can rely upon good faith in that quarter only by exhibiting the punishment which awaits guile. The blockade is a tar dy beginning of that process to which supplements should be forthcoming without delay

Herr Braun, Socialist, was the next
speaker. He said the Socialists did not
deny that the German people must
stand together against their innu-
merabie enemies. He referred to the
TACT that certain persons are talking
about continuing the war in order to
realize wild plans of annexation. A
great majority of the German people
wish fmperatively that no opportunity
Sfor securing an early peace be lost, the
speaker declared, and they emphatic
ally reject annexation plans of all
kinds, particularly such as have been
advocated by one German ruler. DEM
ocracy is opposed to these objection
able projects, IL only for the reason
that they prolong wars and the con-
sequent unheard of sacrifices and
wasting of the strength of the people.
Tho German people want no conuuests,
Herr Braun declared; they want no
arnexations; they do want peace with
out bringing humiliation or subjection
to other peoples.
Herr Delbrueck, Prussian minister
of the interior. made answer to Herr
Braun in part as follows:
While we are involved in such a
war as this, We can have but one
thought, namely, to terminate it in a
way that will make repetition impos-
sible."

CITY'S ARC LIGHTS
MAY HAVE TO co

standards could be provided for the
city as an equivalent for the sixteen
additional lights that have already
been spoken of.
Commissioner Bowman has had the
plan in mind for months he said but
the trip to Baltimore yesterday open
ed his eyes to the value of standard
street lighting over that of the old
fashioned swinging arc system With
Mr.. Bowman were Commissioners w
II. Lynch and M. Harvey Taylor, and
several officials of the electric light
company.
Baltimore is one of the best lighted
cities I've ever visited" said Mr.. Bow
man, too well-lighted in fact. But /
VIII say this, they have very few arc
lights and the effect on the streets is
wonderful. We've got to give some
attention to our trees in Harrisburg
and to my mind one of the surest ways
, to protect them is to guard them
against that which necessarily must in
time interfere with their growth. That
wires hinder them somewhat is be-
yond question. But growing trees GER
tainly have tendency to hide the arc
lights and this necessarily REQUIRES
more arcs to properly light the street.
Now my idea would be to substitute
standards similar to those we now
have in the parks only of a little
greater power, of course, which would
stand at nine or ten feet from the
pavement. Then the trees could be
trimmed to within a foot of the top
of the light globes. This would pre-
serve the trees and at the same time
allow plentiful and even distribution
of light.
And in time I hope to see this
whole arc lighting system in Harris
burg substituted by standard lights,
and that's what I intend to work for
concluded Commissioner Bowman. ar
I'm reelected or not" he added smil-
ingly, "Ill do all 1 can to get suffi-
cient appropriation to substitute
standard lighting block by block"
