Has Submarine Issue So
Well in Hand That 1t Will
Not Come Before Reichstag
Br ASSoeiaicd PrcsS

Berlin, March 20, via London.
March 81. - Friends of the Imperial
Chancellor, DR.. Won Bethmann-H -Holl-
veg are now quite confident that he
has well in hand the political situation
connected with the displacement of
Admiral Won Tirpitz, as minister of
marine, and that there need be no
fear that it will develop into what is
termed a chancellor's crisis.
They believe the National Liberal
and Conservative resolutions. calling
for unlimited use of submarines
against hostile vessels, with the eXcep-
ton of passenger ships, may not even
come to the point of open discussion
and n vote in the Reichstag.
Regarding the immediate occasion
of the conflict it is said advocates of
unrestricted use of submarines argued
that by proclamation of a regular
blockade a determination of intention
to sink merchant ships bound for
England, it would be possible to force
Great Britain to make peace over
lures within two months This argu-
ment found a certain amount of sup
port at headquarters until it was
checked by the counter argument that
the effect probably would be to
lengthen instead of shorten the war,
owing to the effect on neutrals.

Standard Bakery Seen
by Thousands Yesterday

Although the new Standard Bakery
building has three large floors, the
space was insufficient to accommo-
date the thousands who came to see
the new bakery, and at times great
crowds were waiting on the outside for
an opportunity to get in. The crowds
on the various floors followed the diff
ferent stages of bread baking, and
many housewife was amazed when
they saw the hundreds of golden
'"o,vn lonvns come on the conveyor
that takes the loaves from the ovens
ana tumbles them o nthe revolving
cooling table. From 2 to in the
afternoon the building seemed to be
about as well filled as it could be, but
in the evening the people came in still
greater numbers. Favorable COM
ments were heard on all sides regard
ing the spotless white of the interior.
Many out of-town bakers came to in
spect the new plant, and looked at the
various points of advantage with the
critical eyes of experts.
Ferns and palms were arranged on
the various floors, orchestra music
was a feature on the second floor,
and everyone who came received a
souvenir. To-day free loaves of bread
are distributed 10 all the homes in the
city, and tomorrow the big bakery
gets down 10 real business of supply
ing a part of the demand for bread in
Harrisburg and vicinity.

JAPNN'S ADVICE TO CHINA'S

That Japan has never taken Yuan's
aspirations seriously says writer in
Cartoons Magazine, may be seen
from the cartoons appearing in the
Japanese vernacular press. The dome
is too big for the foundation reads
the caption of a Tokyo cartoon in
which a group of Japanese advisers
appears in the foreground evidently
prepared to offer their good counsel
to Yuan on the principles of building
construction.
"In another cartoon Yuan is rep
resented as u monkey trying to catch
the moon (throne) in the river. Again
Yuan is seen just having discarded his
presidential hat, and in the act OF
reaching for the crown. The foreign
nations, headed by John Bull and
Japan, knock vigorously at his door

best plan yet suggested to bring about
union of the two factions of oul
grand old party, once so useful ant
efficient, now so divided and weak

who will unite the two factions into
one party, upon a sane, sensible

COUNCIL ONCE AGAIN DELAYS
ACTION ON GORGAS ORDINANCE

Council this morning postponed ac-
tion again on the Gorgas ordinance
authorizing the use of accumulated
interest funds on Improvement loans
for the liquidation of the bonds in the
sinking funds.
The action was taken when a letter
on the subject was read from City
Solicitor Seitz. In his opinion Mr.. Seitz
says that the interest which is earned
from the various funds must not be
diverted for other purposes. but must
be allowed to accumulate so the fund
can be applied to liquidation of the
sinking funds. BY this method the
taxpayers will directly net the results
of the interest earnings. as less money
will have to be set aside in the budget
for payment of the interest coupons.

Marioric's BattIeship Picture
Marjorie Sterretts battleship pic
ture Defense or Tribute has incur
red its name by reason OF the fact
that the New York Tribune and many
other newspapers throughout the
country are endorsing the picture as
an argument in favor of preparedness
a subject which little Marjorie Ster-
rett, public school girl of Brooklyn
aged 10. has helped to vitaliZe in the
pages Of the Tribune. Marjorie wrote
to the editor, enclosing him a dime
and suggesting the formation of a
fund for the purpose Of building a bat
tleship. The New York Tribune ac-
copied the idea and is carrying on q
great campaign for collecting the
money; other newspapers throughout
the country are giving the campaign
the utmost publicity. And Defense
or Tribute?" the rights of which are
controlled by the Public Service Film
Company has been chosen as the Bat
tleship picture.
Defense or Tribute?" is an argu-
ment for preparedness in the form ot
a series of historical dramas, based
upon incidents in the annals of the
Jews, the Gauls, the Italians, the
French and others; the North Ameri-
can Indians. All the peoples were the
victims of unpreparedness; and theil
fates are taken as a moral to 'adorr
the tale" of this film, which advocate
peace by way of preparedness.
