House to Press
Ordnance Inquiry
Investigation of Munitions
Scandal Will Be Or
dered To-day

WASHINGTON, Sept. THE Rules
Committee Of the House will meet to-
morrow TO formulate a special rule on
the Dent resolution calling for an in
vestigation of the recent scandal in
connection with disclosures that a part
OF the ammunition sent to General
Pershing was defective.
1t is expected that this rule will be
offered in the House tomorrow and
will be followed by the adoption OF
the Dent resolution. An attempt by
REPRESENTATIVE Dent 10 have the reso-
luton adopted to-day was blocked
when Representative Cooper, of Wis
cousin, objected to a unanimous CON
sent agreen ent to take the resolution
up out OF order.
The resolution calls for the appoint
ment of a special committee Of seven
members Of the Military Committee OF
the House 20 investigate the small
arms ammunition scandal and empow-
ers the committee TO summon Wit
nesses, examine books and papers and
TO take testimony under oatn.
As a result of disclosures in the ties.
timony given by General Crozier, head
OF the Ordnance Department, when
ordnance appropriations were being
considered, members of the House are
insisting that a full investigation be
mad,. At that time General Crozier
declared that no trouble had been en-
countered in manufacturing ammuni-
ton at the Frankford Arsenal, making
the statement in answer to a question
from Representative Sherley, Of Ken
lucky, who had at that time heard
rumors OF faulty ammunition.
Why members of Congress should
have heard of the faulty ammunition
and why General Crozier should have
been unaware that faulty ammunition
had been manufactured will De one Of
the subjects that the committee viii!
investigate.

IN. A." Vanguard Arrives
At Camp Upton; He Takes
Charge of the PostoMce

New York's first drafted men is al
ready detailed to special work in Camp
Upton, at Yaphank, Long Island.
Joseph Reichbach, letter carrier,
has the distinction Of being the first
selected man to arrive at the canton
ment. The remaining l,9il men of the
first detachment will not Join Reich
bach until Monday.
According to Roscoe S. Conkling, di-
rector of the draft in this city, Reich
bach objected to joining the new Ma
tlonal Army when he was certified by
Local Boa ID 9S. In fact. il is said, he
claimed exemption as government
employe and carried an appeal to the
district board.
Before Justice Hughes's board con-
sidered his appeal Reichbach saw the
light and decided to withdraw his
claim. Then he feared that he had
lost his right to journey TO Haphank
with the first detachment lie deter
mined, however, to 90 there first and
"stay put"
When Reichbach explained to Off
GERS at Ysphank that he con3tltuted
the vanguard Of New York's quota they
became puzzled and telephoned to
Local Board 90 for enlightenment. The
members Of the board were astonlshed
and sought advice from Deputy Attor-
ney General Conkling. Even Mr.. Conk-
ling was not sure of the procedure IN
this case, but recommended that the
local board request the Yaphsnk au-
thorities to send Reichbach pack TO
New York TO have mis- records straight
ened out.
Yesterday morning n member OF the
local board telephoned 70 Camp Upton
and urged that Reichbach be shipped
back TO this city.
The vol, at the other end oil the
wire replied, Sorry; but Reichbach is
in charge Of the poStoiiice at the camp
and we cannot let him GO
More honors will be heaped on the
selected men before they leave he city.
The eighteen local boards Of Harlem
have Joined to hold a parade and band
concert in honor Of their first quota
tonight. The parade will start at i5otn
Street and Broadway and end At Mount

N1HAT lies at the heart of the
w TaegIiche Illinois Staat'-
:eitung, of Chicago, is dis
covered in the following comment:
'ln the Balkans there are devel-
opments which are purposedly kept
secret. But the flames Of the great fire
which destroyed half of Sslonica and
destroyed the homes of 10000 peo-
pie throw light on the darkness
which the censors try to spread over
this theatre Of the war. II seems that
SarraiPs army is being withdrawn
from this territory, that the protec-
ton Of the rearguard is left TO the
followers Of Venizelos, and that the
torch has been applied to Sslonics,
which thus shared the same fate
with other cities whose investment
by the enemy was imminent. And
the giving up OF the Balkans by the
Entente will compel Italy TO relin-
quish her hopes to get foothold on
the other side OF the Adriatic."
The same paper contends that this
country is about as reactionary a,
Prussianized Germany. Witness the ex
periences of the Peoples Peace Coun
Gil. 1t says:
1--WE don't want to discuss whether
it was wise to forbid the Peoples
Council holding a mass meeting at
Minneapolis, but we DO want TO state
that the much criticised word YER
boten' lforbidden) is not a monopoly
of the German government since
long ago"

Unhinching Loyalty" in the same papel

Considers Loyalty
Matter Of Course.

1--WE admit that the German press
in this country has abstsined from
using the same expedients which the
other newspapers have resorted to
TO arouse and to kindle the patriot
ism OF the readers. But only for
the reason that German-Americans
consider the loyal performance OF
the duties owed to the United States
as a matter of course. When the
call to arms is issued the German
American conforms to it without de-
lay or resistance. He does not claim
exemption"
Nevertheless. nearly all the German

Trading comes natural to
most boys-begins with mar
bles. It's a good thing be-
cause sooner or later every
youngster must pay his own
way.
Of late years many parents
have taken to sending their
boys in by themselves to pur-
chase school suits. They feel
that it gives the boy a sense
of responsibility and opens
his eyes to a better realization
of the cost Of clothes and the
need Of care after they re
bought. Also that price is
not always the test of cheap
ness and that it pays to buy
good things at a reliable store.
The confidence i'm pile d
never fails to put our sales
men on their mettle and, Of
course, whatever your boy Sc
lects goes home subject to re-
turn for exchange, refund or
credit, just as you think best.

printed papers protest against their
Landsleute (Germsn-Americsns) be-
ing sent to Europe. The Dstroiter
Abendpost, for instance. complains:
"A citizen Of this country must
fight against Germany no matter
whether he was born there or his
brothers and cousins belong to the
German army, says a decision OF the
Detroit Exemption Board. Ways
and means could be found TO en-
ploy such men elsewhere. II
that cannot be attained, where is the
much praised humanity Of the Amer
lean government"
The Detroiter Abendpost openly
announced that il was eager for Ger
man victory. This paper printed on
its first page a cartoon under the
caption, "Glad Tidings?" The picture
shows an angel carrying the dove Of
peace on his left hand and knocking
at the door Of hut with the lnscrip-
ton allies" England, Italy and
France arc holding the door back TO
prevent the angel of peace from en-
tering, while Uncle Sam is putting up
his shirt sleeves to take part in hold
ing back the peace angel The cartoon
is explained by poem, the last stanza
Of which reads:
Dear little dove, fly away;
Take along my compliments and kiss.
Tell the Pope England does not want
peace d,
Because she must get whipped before"

Many Examples.
This is only one Of the many eX-
amples. A wish for the success OF

Survivors Of the "Tenth" and "Six.

City and Recall Faint RecOl-
lectiOns Of Times
Gone by.

The few survivors of the Tenth In
fantry and Sixteenth Cavalry have
taken this city by storm and today
held forth in beautiful Beechwood
Park to celebrate their gallant deeds
and talk over old times. Though but
few of them are left, the meeting lacks
anything but enthusiasm for those
who remain add the necessary vim
and enthusiasm. The citizens of Mays
vile know Of no better way to have
their village taken by storm than by
those who in their youth put their
lives at stake for the sake of their
country.
The melting is open to all who wish
to attend and very interesting pro-
gram has been arranged by Mrs.
George w. Hook, the efficient secre-
tary Of the association, who has done
much to keep the organization to-
gether since the death of her parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. C. C. Degman, who were
always vitality interested in the keep
ing alive of the association.
The main event of the day will be
the speech by Hon. w. d. Cochran of
this city. There will also be plenty
OF good music.

MKT SUMMONS OF DRAFTED
MEN IN KENTUCKY WILL BE 20
INSTEAD OF 40 PER CENT

Louisville, KY, September "a
Only 20 per cent instead Of 40 per cent
Of the quota to be furnished to the
new national army by those states
will be sent here to Camp Taylor Oc-
tober 3. In the next increment from
Indiana. Kentucky and a part of Illi-
nois, 1t was learned today.
Orders to this effect have gone to
Governor A. o. Stanley and to the
governors Of Indiana and Illinois, it
was said by heads Of local passenger
traffic here who declared the orders
transmitted to them took in all three
states. No reason for the change in
plans was advanced.
There are now just over $4,000 men
at Camp Taylor and this number will
be increased by 10000 with the ar
rival of the 20 per cent.
