President Wilson VIII
Make Effort to Give
Food Post to Hoover
By Associated Press

Washington, d. c., July 23.-Presi-
dent Wilson probably will bring his
personal influence to bear on Senate
and House conferees on the food
bill to accept the House provision for
a single food administrator instead
of the board of three as voted by the
Senate. The President may take q
hand in some of the other conflicting
sections.
President Wilson is understood to
prefer the Senate prohibition section
forbidding manufacture of distilled
liquors. but allowing the manufac-
ture of beer and wine. The House
put in a bone dry section. The
President has heretofore opposed a
congressional committee to investi-
gate the conduct of the war and
there is no reason to believe he will
favor such an amendment to the bill.
The food supply bill, passed by
the Senate Saturday, was back to.
day in the hands of the House. The
House was expected to disagree to
the Senate amendments and the bill
be sent to the conference, probably
tomorrow, where differences be-
tween the two houses will be
threshed out Leaders were hopeful
to-day that the measure would be
sent to President Wilson for his sig
nature by the end of the week.

Heather Mortuary Rites
Followed by Eccentric
Club For Suicide Member

Chicago ILL.,, July 23.-Surviving
members of the Whitechapel Club
assem- bled at midnight on the shore
of Lake Michigan near Millers, Ind,
and remained until dawn to-day for
the purpose of commemorating the
death twenty five years ago of Morris
Allen Collins, poet and cowboy mem
Der of the club. who killed himself
that the social ideas he favored might
be remembered. The Whitechapel
Club, which was made up of journal
lists and artists and whose motto
was Laugh in the Face of Death, ."
gave up its formal organization in
1894, but the members still keep a
more or less close association. The
ceremony this morning was held
about a great funeral pyre, the NOR
tuary ceremonies being of the nature
of the ancient Greeks and the Ameri-
can Indians.
Collins, who committed suicide in
1892, came to Chicago from the
West in the latter SOS. Champion
ing the cause of the poor and op-
pressed, he waged a campaign against
possessors of great wealth. His cause
met with little announcement and it
was to bring it before the public that
Collins killed himself, first request
ing that his fellow club members
cremate his body. that his sacrifice
might be more effective. To-day's S
ceremony was similar to that held
twenty-five years ago.

SHERIFF HUNTS
STRANGE COURT
PLASTER VENDORS
Perry County Farmers Fear
Men Are Part of Ger
man Gang
HAVE FOREIGN ACCENT
Try to Give Material to
Those Who Won't
Buy

New Bloomfield, July z3.-Sheriff
D. L. Kister left at noon to-day in
pursuit of two men believed to be
selling courtplaster that may be in
fected with disease-giving germs.
The request for an immediate inves-
tigation came from a farmer living
near New Germantown, who said
two suspicious looking men were at
tempting to sell courtplaster in large
quantities for small sums.
The farmer excitedly declared that
when he refused to buy they very
suavely suggested he take some just
to try it. Wont cost you a cent"
the one man is alleged to have said,
as he persisted in leaving some at
the farmhouse for a trial.
Like reports came from a section
of the country near Blain. It is be-
lieved the men may be part of a
gang alleged to have been at work in
Franklin county. 1t also is believed
they may be part of a well-organ-
lied gang that is supposed to be
working the entire United States.
Arrests have occurred in various
parts of the country and several men
are being held pending a full inves-
tigation and analysis.
The men were described to be
short and heavy-set and to speak
with foreign accent, although the
nationality was not noticeable. AT
a late hour this afternoon the sheriff
had not returned from his search
and 1T could not be learned whether
he had come up with the men. He
was travelling in a fast automobile
and was accompanied by DR.. Will
liam Auverbuch. The men are heav-
lily armed and it is believed in
Bloomfield that the sheriff will not
return without his men if he can
verify the reports that have come
to him.

All American Aviation
Forces in France to Be
Brought Under One Head

Paris, July 23.-Plans have been
completed for bringing all American
aviation forces here under a single
direction working in conjunction
with other military units. Airplane
squadrons will be divided into two
classes, tactical and strategic. The
former will operate within a range
of twenty-five kilometres and the
latter within a range of 200 kilo-
metres.
The tactical units will cooperate
directly with the troops, doing pre-
liminary reconnoitering, pursuing
enemy aviators and bombardine
enemy establishments. The strategic
squadrons in general will operate in
dependently. They will be engaged
in destroying enemy defenses and
attacking supply bases, depots and
factories. They will also take part
in squadron lighting and day and
night bombardments. Observation
balloons will be used largely as an
adjunct to the artillery.
1t is ordered that hereafter the
names of no American officers ex-
cept Major General Pershing and
Major General Sibert be mentioned
in news dispatches.

By associated Press

London, July 23.-Canadian Off
GERS on leave here from the French

ed to American officials that Amer

peditionary forces. Manitobians

These Indians with u.s." said a
captain with the Canadian forces
whose parents live in Philadelphia,

could have been performed by a
white man. The Indian of North
America has it in his bones to be a
good fighter and a crafty one. We
have them IN nearly every regiment.
Again and again during the past
two years l have seen them go out

SHOCK TO THE SONS OF REST

Perplexing problem ko. 2 con-

each day at the Penn-H Harris hotel
corner, Third and Walnut, and in

dealt with the method of removing

Why doesn't water from the river
seep through the rock strata and fill

this question from every conceivable
angle, John Newton, of 2146 Mar

Colonel Frank G. Sweeney, in

for information from local boards
concerning their quotas. Many
of them complained they had
not been given credit for the
full number of men that had en-

have enlisted since July L, neither
will credit be given for men who
have enlisted in the Navy.
