Should Be PROLONGED.

AMSTERDAM. Sept. 25.--The German
Emperor in addressing tho veterans Of
the 1915 campaign in Rumania on Satur-
day, according to a report received here
from Berlin. spoke of the Hohenzollern
who had succeeded a great and noble
Prince and, despite all traditions. did not

renegade who at the time when Ger

Joined the enemies OF the empire" He

German strength" which had been bril-

Indeed. the avenging hand of the
Judge above us has sealed the fate Of
this ruthless former friend. What the
Lord Of Hosts may still have In store
We do not know. but come what may

In the face. We did not will this war

DISL0YALPRESS
Trading With Enemy Act Now
Awaits Only the Presi-
dents Signature.
Special DespsscA to rns sus.

WARRINGTON, Sept. 25.--In pursuance
Of It's programme to uproot disloyalty in
the United States. in connection with
which more interesting disclosures are
promised. the Administration. It became
known to-day, Is planning to invoke some
Of the new powers placed In Its hands
by the trading with the enemy act. The
conference report on this was adopted
to-day by the House and now only
awaits the Presidents signature. Meas
ures which the Government is to take
under this act were discussed at to-day's
Cabinet meeting.
One OF the first steps will be to inau-
gurate a campaign against many of the
foreign language newspapers of the
United States. Postmaster-General
Burleson took with him to-day to the
White House many excerpts from these
newspapers which probably will form
the basis for the action to be taken by
the Government
Under the new law before any for
eign language newspaper can print any,
thing respecting this Government or any
nation engaged in the war or anything
about the war II must first fle a transla-
tion with the local postmaster. These
translations are to he forwarded at once
to Washington and the Postmaster Gen
eral can then. n he deems II warranted,
not only forbid such newspapers from
going through the mail. but from being
distributed In any other way, even by
newsboys.
Certain foreign language papers have
been closely watched lately and will be
the first to feel the effect Of the new
law. These papers have been covering
UP their disloyalty under the guse of
socialism. They have been daily preach
ing that this is n capitaustic war, The
Government with this new power lodged
in its hands is determined that this shall
stop.
Even greater importance, however, Is
attached to the mail censorship provision
OF the new act as affording means of
stopping the activities OF disloyal citi-
zens and German spies. Under the act
the President Is authorized to establish
a censorship Of all communications, mail.
cable. radio or, other means of trans
mission, passing through the United
States and to any foreign country.

HOUSE PASSES
AVIATION BILL
Vote Unanimous, but Board Is
Reduced From Twelve to
Nine Members.
Special Despasch TO TIE srx.


WARRINGTON. Sept 25.-The hrst step
aviation headed by a Cabinet ofiicer was
taken to-day when the House passed
without roll call the Sheppard Hubert
bill legalizing the Aircraft Production
Board. The bill, which passed the SEN
ate September IL. was amended by the
House to reduce the board from twelve
to nine members, three each from the
army and navy, and three. including
the chairman to be civilians.
Conferees on the measure will be
Senators Chamberlain, Sheppard. Brady
and Representatives Dent Shallenberger
and Greene Of Vermont.
The purpose Of the measure is, first
to put in the hands OF a separate board
the construction Of vast feet Of
aeroplAnes which the United States
will contribute to the allied cause in the
world war
Production Board serving under Presi-
dental appointment, it is planned to
give the board greater weight Of au-
thority in dealing directly with the avia-
zion authorities of other Allies with q
view to coordinatlng and unversalising
the combined output of all the Allies.
Later 1t is proposed to extend the
powers OF the board SO as to throw to
the new institution dominant power in
any conflict which may arise with the
aviation sections Of the War and Navy
departments. As third step a separate
department will be proposed.
Those who have been working In the
interests OF greater aviation activity
complain that the supervision which
unframed and unschooled army and
navy officers now have over the determi-
nation of types and methods OF con-
struction hamper civilian experts in
their work Of turning out tremendous
airplane fleet.

AIR RAIDERS BOMB LONDON
AGAIN, BUT ARE DRIVEN OFF
Second Foray Within Twenty-for Hours Includes Two
Attacks on Kent and Essex Coast-Twenty Casual
ties Reported in Latest Exploit.

LONDON, Sept 25.-The second airplane
raid on London within twenty -four
hours took place tonight. There were
apparently two attacks. for after forty
minutes quiet interval. anti-aircraft
guns resumed firing In the London dis
trict.
In the hrst attack. after brisk firing
by the defensive guns. lasting only ten
minutes, the raiders were driven OF
without succeeding in reaching the city
Of London. The firing OF the anti-air-
craft guns in the second attack was Of
brief duration. The raiders were finally
driven of and the police gave out the
''all clear" signal at 8 80 o'clock.
A report Of the raid was issued BY
Field Marshal French as follows:
The Thames estuary was again the
objective OF hostile air raid this
evening The Kent and Essex coast
was crossed at various points and
few bombs were dropped but no casu-
alties are yet reported.
One raider penetrated as far as the
southeastern outskirts OF London,
where two bombs fell. causing some
twenty casualties.
Fifteen persons were Killed and sev-
enty injured in last nights raid. The
Zeppelins which crossed the Yorkshire
and Lincolnshire coasts did not pene-
trate inland, being driven of by gun
IRE. Three women were injured.
1t appears that the fierce battle which
the British airplanes and anti-aircraft
artillery put up forced the raiders to leave
London without dropping any considera-
BILE part Of their cargo OF explosives. Ono
Of the London districts received several
bombs with rather less important re-
suits than on the occasion of previous
visits by raiders. Two bombs fell In
the Thames near the bridge. throwing
column Of water SO high that It splashed
clear over the walls.

siderable interest centered in the afternoon

also by Zeckwer, and is virtually new, even
TO many Philadelphians.
The Mischianza," telling the story Of
the festival marking the departure of Gem
eral Howe's army from Philadelphia, away
back in Revolutionary times, forms a strong
theme, with the story Of the fete. the dano-
ing of the minuet, the love song, the appeal
OF the youthful patriot in the name Of free
dom and the awalting of the patriotism OF
the citizens.
With perfect weather conditions, the
seating capacity OF the big stadium was

tive" considered by Mr. Herbert himself as
one OF his strongest efforts in the field of
