Social Insurance is
Suggested as Means
of Avoiding Poverty

Social Insurance" that will lessen
poverty and in turn do away with the
bad living conditions were the subject
of an address given last night by DIR.
John Price Jackson, State Commits
sioner of Labor and Industry, before
Labor's Open Forum.
Germany was cited as an instance
where the enforcement of the social
insurance plan had done great good.
DR.. Jackson spoke of the time when
social conditions would make a plan
of social insurance inevitable, because
of the rapid strides that legislation has
been making in recent years for better
working conditions. Laws that have
favored the working man, especially
the compensation law and the moth
er's assistance fund were given as in
stances CT the progress of better legis-
lation.
When the high cost of living was
discussed food spectators were scored.
Plans were formulated for the estab-
lishment of central publicity bureau
as permanent department of the
Forum. Definite action will be taken
on this matter at the next meeting of
the labor unions of Harrisburg and
to be held March 25, in White s
Hall. Verbeke and James street.
The bureau will collect labor news
and present it to the newspapers of
the city. The opinion of the labor
organizations on any proposed State or
city legislation will be given the widest
possible publicity.

HORSES DROWN
IN SUSQUEHANNA
Break Through Ice While
Hauling Sawdust to Clemson's
Island, Near Halifax

Halifax, Pa, Feb. 26. - Two horses
were drowned and a man narrowly es-
capped the same fate late Saturday aft
ernoon, when a iwo-horse team be-
longing to John VI Clemson, living on
Clemson's Island, in the Susquehanna
river, opposite town, broke through
the ice, and went to the bottom. The
team had been engaged in hauling
sawdust from town across the ice to
the island, and was in charge of Mr.
Clemsons son, John Clemson, ard
Frank Klinger. When within 100
yards of the island the wagon sud
denly breke through the ice and within
a minutes time the horses were
struggling in the water.
Mr.. Klinger jumped onto the ice
and began to unhook the horses in an
attempt to save them and he, too, went
into the water He was rescued by
Young Clemson, but the animals and
wagon were swept under the ice by
the strong current and the horses
drowned. The loss is heavy.

DECLARES KAISER
HADRUG WRECK
U. S. Traveller Says He Con-
stantly breads Assassination
and Suffers From Throat

New York, Feb. 26. - The German
Emperor is physical wreck and is
constantly under the influence of
morphia and cocaine. according to Ed
gar M. Moore, a real estate dealer of
Lafayette, Ind, who returned recently
from Germany and is stopping in New
York City. Mr.. Moore says he obtain
ed his information from Otto Helmuth,
the chauffeur of William H.
Mr.. Moore was in Germany with his
wife, an invalid, who was taking the
baths at Aachen, near the frontier of
Holland, about three weeks ago, and
says:
THE German Emperor is considered
to be madman, even in Germany. He
is hopelessly addicted to the use of
drugs because of chronic ailments in
the throat and ear, which cause con-
stant pain.
THE Emperor believes Germany lost
the war in the Battle of Jutland and
his most intimate advisers believe that
their country must make peace by July.
The Emperor's one hope is that the sub
marines will starve England and that
GTest WIZ M daas rst nat
whether America enters the war, be-
lieying 1t immaterial."
Next to Mrs Moore on the porch at
Aachen for several days was Helmuth,
the Kaisers personal chauffeur for the
last eight years who was taking a
rheumatism cure.
'Helmuth thought my wife a Ger
man woman and he talked freely of the
German Emperor" Mr.. Moore continu-
ed. He said that the Kaiser is in con
stant dread of assassination and that
when travelling there are three automo-
biles in his retinue. First there is an
automobile with four aids in it,
chauffeur and an armed guard. Then
comes his huge limousine An armed
guard sits on the front seat beside the
driver, while a wax imitation of the
Kaiser in uniform sits in the enclosed
portion of the car. The third car is
small, gray one. The Kaiser rides in
1t alone. - -

States in entering the war has sufficient
ly circulated in Germany to cause deep
impression. The outbreak of food riots,
strikes and peace movements may be
attributable to other causes, but they
may easily have been induced in part by
the spread of the information that the
United States is in the field not as an
of the German people, but
to the end of freeing them from the
oppression of the military autocracy.
The secret Anglo o-Amcrican treaty has
been manufactured to offset the
influence of the Presidents words.
It has been frequently said that if the
scales could ever he removed from the

could see the position in which they
have been placed ny their leaders in this

action was limited. As the supreme di-
rector of the Union side of the conflict,
Mr.. Lincoln could get, and keep, line

nearly all of the time in this town. His
anxieties were so great he could find no

Lusitania Day.

Two Years ago t0day the news was
dashed from England that the steamer
I.usitania had been torpedoed without
warning bv n German submarine off the
coast of Ireland with frightful loss of
life. OF those thus slain ia were
Americans. Against this crime the
American pcople protested instantly and
strongly The general sentiment against
Germany in the war became acutely

nectcd This feeling by demanding sat
isfaction. A long negotiation followed,
with numerous notes from both sides
Meanwhile other ships were sunk. with
the loss of more Americans, and further
notes we're exchanged.
A wear ago Germany agreed to alb
stain from unwarned sinkings, on the
condition that the United States induce
England to abandon certain blockade
practices. The United States refused TO
engage in bargaining and formally
warned Germany that further unwarned
snbmorine attacks would cause a sever
ance Of relations. regardless of Eng
lands course. For several months the
conditional pledge was kept. but late in
.Januarv Germany announced n policy of
unrestricted submarine warfare. and on
the date named began a series of sink
ings without warning that caused this
country first to dismiss the German am
