Fighting at Polygon
Is Unusually Desperate
as Enemy Waves Roll In
By associated Press

British Front in France and Bel
gium, Aug. 1S.-The fighting Thurs
day at Polygon was unusually des-
perate. Wave after wave of the
enemy came surging up against the
London troops who held on deter
minedly with rifle and bayonet until
two simultaneous counterattacks
from different directions forced them
to retreat.
Gradually they withdrew, fighting
all the way. Some of them indeed
were. surrounded and fought until
forced to surrender. One young Of
ficer in command of ten men found
himself encircled by the enemy and
his men being swept by machine gun
fire. The last heard of him was con-
tanned in q message he signaled back
to his division, saying his men were
facing death and that he saw no way
but to surrender and save their lives.
Along most of the French front
1t was comparatively quiet, although
n hard local battle was continuing
about a strong German redoubt
known as Les Lilas," which lies
about thousand yards southwest of
the st. Jansbeek river.
In their advance the French surged
on either side of this position, max
ing a sort of pocket about 1t and it
was expected that the small German
garrison would be compelled to sur
render shortly. The Germans deliv-
cred a counterattack on the French
extreme right flank, but this was
repulsed by artillery fire.

The Harrisburg Real Estate Board

waukee the last week in July.
The time of the meeting was given

Washington Believes
POpe's Peace Message
May Hasten Wars End

Washington. Aug. 1S.-Although
no one now doubts that the pope's
proposals of peace will be rejected,
IL becomes constantly more apparent
at the capital that the message from
his Holiness is more than likely to
play an important part in bringing
peace to the world. The note has
already served one purpose. 1t has
aroused a discussion of the possi-
not only in America. but in every
ether country, and that discussion
has emphasized the fact which has
already begun TO be apparent to OBJ
servers, that the world is longing
for a restoration of peace.
II the suggestion were to do moth
ing else, that alone would be large
step. But 1t Is almost certain to do
more. 1t will very probably cause a
statement of terms by all parties. On
the side of the Allies, this with mean
merely a restatement of the objects
for which the war Is being waged,
probably modified greatly by Presi-
dent Wilson's Interpretation. For
the central powers it may be said
that an opening will be given them
to tell what are their real aims, not
the silly. unreasonable dictates that
have heretofore characterized the
flambuoyant utterances of their lead
crs, but an honest expression of what
they would consider q fair basis upon
which q conference might be ar
ranged.
1t is by no means certain that the
kaiser and his underlings will avail
themselves of this opportunity.
Prussian pride and arrogance, the
long-standing determination to sway
the entire world, the stupid, madly
ambitious advice of the crown prince,
all stand in the way. But it is sure
that the German people are heartily
sickened by the suffering thrust upon
them during the past three years: /:
that they are ready to lay down
their arms at n word. and that their
voice is becoming so loud that before
long the imperil government must
put aside its ruthless unconcern and
give heed.
That is the outcome of which the
officials in Washington are hopeful.
That would be a real stepping stone
to a speedy peace on terms that
would make the world safe for
democracy" that would guarantee
this generation and it's progeny of a
place where men can look after the
honest, wholesome endeavors of
peace without having the cloud of a
possible outburst of horrible blood
shed hanging constantly over them
And, though nothing is being taken
for granted, the opinion is being
frequently expressed here that this
move is becoming more and more
likely.

MUCH HEADWAY
BEING MADE ON
WAR TAX BILL
Only Few Uncontested Provis-
ions Remain to Be Dis
posed Of
Bv Associated Press


Washington. Aug. 1s.-Only a few
of the uncontested provisions of the
war tax bill remained to be disposed
of when the Senate resumed consid-
Grafton of the measure to-day. Much
headway Is being made in disposing
of important features, among them
being the wine and motor vehicle
schedules.
The Senate provisions levy a surtax
of $40 for each $500 value on automo-
biles costing more than $4,000 in the
place of the five per cent. tax on
gross sales of manufacturers pro-
posed by the House.
An amendment to prevent expend-
ing any money raised from the bill in
transporting men to Europe who have
not volunteered for such service was
introduced by Senator Gore. The Ok
lahoma senator said his object was to
conserve manpower. He declared that
the total number of men of draft ages
in all the allied countries is nearly
equal to the total population of Ger
many and that there was no dearth in
manpower among the European coun-
tries now at war with the Central
powers.
What we need most is not men but
munitions. arms, weapons and sup
plies" he said.
The amendment was passed over
without action.
On the first roll call taken on the
bill the Senate retained. 2S to 81, the
committees provision for a one-cent
stamp tax on transportation of parcel
post packages amended so as to eX-
empt pockages costing under 25 cents.
For each additional 25 cents charged
further 1-cent tax would be inn
posed. From the parcel post tax ST.
000,00 in revenue is estimated.

DISTRICT APPEAL
BOARDS TO MEET
Session at Capitol Wednes-
day; State Draft Headquar-
ters Return Vouchers

State draft headquarters to-day
marked for return to local boards
scores of vouchers for payment of
salaries and various expenses which
were not made out as required.
Others which are in form are being
gone over and it was stated that
warrants would be sent as soon as
possible in view of the tremendous
pressure on the headquarters be-
cause of the draft.
Word was received here to-day
that changes of one would have to
be made in the quotas of some twen-
ty-five districts. The changes are
necessary because of errors found in
checking up the calculations. These
notices will be sent out late to-day.
Formal notices have been issued
for conference of members of all
district appeal boards in the Capitol
next Wednesday afternoon, when
Major c. B. Warren, of the judge
advocate generals department, will
be here and that boards must have
some one, preferably county, city
or borough solicitor, to take appeals
to district boards in behalf of the
government. Local boards have been
asked to send to the headquarters
the name of the person so designat-
ed who is to cooperate with the
local board rather than appear as an
attorney before it.
1t is expected that all of the dis
trict boards will complete their or
ganization to-day.

Allied Governments
Will Discuss Jointly
Pope's Peace Proposals

London. Aug. 1.-THE allied gov
ernments will discuss jointly the
peace proposals of Pope Benedict
and reply will be issued in due
course. Lord Robert Cecil told the
Associated Press tonight. Whether
the reply will be joint note or, as
suggested in some quarters. through
the medium of the United States,
or by some other manner, will be
decided later.
When the correspondent entered
the office of the minister of blockade
he was seated at q desk with a pack
age of documents dealing with the
fate of the crew of the steamer Bel
gian Prince, while another packet
lying near told the story of the
American steamer Campana, sunk
August 6, and from which the cap
tain and several gunners were re-
moved by the crew of the submarine.
whether as captives. there to suffer
n fate similar to the crew of the Bel
gian Prince, is not yet known.
'It is difficult to talk of CON
dition'," remarked Lord Robert in
response to question concerning
the papal note. while reading stories
like these. 1 hope sincerely the
brave Americans taken from the
Campana have not suffered the fate
WHICH the pirates ueteu out 10 our
men aboard the Belgian Prince. 1t
takes us back to the awful days
when old-time pirate by way of re-
prisal made sailors walk the plank
to certain death in the sea-
Turning to the note from the Vati-
can, Lord Robert; after prefacing his
motives with the statement that mas
much as the matter now is a subject
for discussion by the allied govern
ments, he could express only his own
personal views. said:~
Premature attempts at mediation
are not usually successful and I fear
this Is premature. l think we all
recognize that the pope's motives
are the best in the world and that
he desires peace ardently, as indeed
we all do. But the time is not yet
ripe.
THE Allies cannot think of con-
donation until the criminals are
really rependant and have shown it
by word and deed"

City Needs IncineratOr,
Commissioners Believe

The City Commissioners will not
decide for a week or two what sys-
tenn they will employ to remedy Har-
risburg's ash and garbage troubles
but they permitted publication to-
Gay of their opinions that an in
cinerating plant. much like the one
they inspected this week in Norfolk,
Va, is what Harrisburg needs.
The commissioners came back at
noon to-day from Norfolk and on
Monday or Tuesday they expect to
get data by mail from Norfolk which
will show the cost and the operating
expenses of the Norfolk plant. Ten
tative figures obtained from chats
with Norfolk officials indicate, the
commissioners say, that the installa-
;ion of an inciperating plant would
lie much less than what the city
would have to pay for the plant of
the Pennsylvania Reduction Com
Tany.

COAL PRICES
TO BE REDUCED
BY PRESIDENT
Will Take Action Early Next
Week; Big Saving to
Be Effected
BY Associated Press

Washington, Aug. 18.-The Presi-
dent will take some action in the
coal situation early next week. He
carried back to the White House
from the Trade Commission a mass
of statistics on coal production costs
and will go over them tomorrow.
His decision probably will be an
nounced Monday.
The Presidents intention. it was
learned authoritatively, is to reduce
the present prices not only at the
mines but of jobbers and retailers.
The Trade Commissions report indi-
Gates that operators can sell their
bituminous at price far below the
maximum of SO fixed. at the recent
conference between mine managers
and government officials and still
make a handsome profit.
Under the law the President may
tx the price of coal, operate the
mines or commander stocks and
sell to the public. Some decision of
which course he will pursue is ex-
pected as the result of to-day's con-
ference, which was based on the
Federal Trade Commissions now
completed report on the coal sit
uation.
At the Federal Trade Commission
the President went over the figures
gathered on costs of producing coal
The trend of the commissions report
on the subject was to urge the Presi-
dent to take over the supply and its
distribution.
White Makes Statement
President White, of the United
statement on the conference which
he and Chairman Peabody, of the
coal production committee, had yes
terday with President Wilson:
THE President was advised to act
quickly in creating an agency as au-
thorized by Congress, providing for
federal supervision and control OF
coal production and distribution. The
mine workers representatives stated
to the President that agitation by
State Councils of Defense, State or
ganizations and State governments
looking to State control of coal min
ing operations and coal production
was, in their opinion, doing much
harm, and that this injurious effect
would be overcome only by federal
action and federal control.
The President was requested that
with the agency or authority,
through which the government would
exercise control over coal production,
that representatives of all elements,
miners and operators, engaged in the
production of coal would be associ-
ated. 1t was their opinion, based
upon knowledge and experience, that
cooperation of all forces engaged
in coal production could be brought
about if they were represented in an
advisory capacity or otherwise, with
the agency or authority exercising
government control.
we deny most emphatically that
either a request or suggestion was
made in opposition to a reduction of
the selling price of coal. Our mis-
sion was for no other purpose than
oS herein stated"

Shipyard Strike Not Apt
to Delay U. S. Work

New York. Aug. 18.-While the
general situation of the striking ship
yard workers is TO be reviewed at
meeting of delegates of the various
unions to be held next Tuesday, it

says Mrs Annie Meisenhelmer, 1898
N Cameron street. Harrisburg
IT was miserable for long time
