sees it according to the facts peculiar
to his case. There must, however, be
no uncertainty of purpose, no oppor-
tunity for hystericai and ill-advised
action on TIE part of any of our troops
or local councils. The stability of the
splendid movement to which we are
all pledged alike is perhaps about to
be tested. The loyalty to those in au-
thority as exhibited in the past is, we
believe, a guarantee of the support of
every officer and Scout no matter
where he may be.
Keep the Troops Going.
An important duty will devolve upon
those Scout officials who remain at
home. Under no circumstances should
any troop be allowed to disband or go
through the summer without adult
leadership because a Scoutmaster or
Assistant Scoutmaster has patriotically
responded in the present emergency
The Troop Committee, or the Patrol
leaders in case the Troop Committee
is inactive should see to it that can
vass is made. first through the institu-
tion with which the Troop is connect
ed and then through the parents of the
members of the Troop, until someone
lis found who will assume the leader
ship of the Troop, so as to have adult
supervision until the return of the
Scoutmaster.

FINES FOR CAGEMEN

Philadelphia, Feb. 22.-President
William j. Scheffer, of the Eastern
Basketball League, announced last
night that he had imposed fines of 81
each upon Barney Sedran, Marty
Friedman and Jack Fox, Jasper play
ers, and Joe Dreyfuss, of De Neri for
participating in the Jasper-Scranton
exhibition game at Scranton on Mon
day.
These fines were inflicted for viola
ton of the Eastern League rules.
Dreyfuss, who is a DeNeri player, was
in the Scranton lineup against Jasper,
and as the former had no right to play
with Scranton under the Eastern
League rules and as the latter team
should not have played the game with
Dreymuss lined up against them, they
violated the rule.
Dreyfuss used the name of Bar
ney" in the Jasper game, but Presi-
dent Scheffer announced that he has
received reliable information from his
Scranton embassy that these four men
played in the game and that they
could not play in last nights Jasper
DeNeri game, scheduled in this city,
until they paid their fines. Scheffer
said that he was not sure of the other
two men who made up the Jasper
team in that game.

Contends Salary Raise
No Cure For H. c. l.
By associated Press

Washington, Feb. %. - Yesterdays s
bread riot in New York claimed at
tention in the Senate to-day during
the debate on increases in salary for
government clerks.
Senator Thomas, Democrat, of Col
orado, expressed the opinion that in
creases in salary were no cure for the
increasing cost of living because, he
charged, those who control food
prices, would raise them to keep pace
with salaries.
That is not the way to remedy
bread riots such as we are having in
the metropolis of this country" said
Senator Thomas. THE way to deal
with that is to take those who corner
food supplies by the throats. 1 dis
like to see food riots in tree America,
but can see that it might be the first
step toward relief"

FRENCH PRESIDENT
 PRAISES AMERICA
Continued From Page One)

Continued From Page One) America, we have not failed to under stand the thought which inspired the recent initiative of President Wilson," MT. PQincare replied. We are at once convinced that in the mind of the il- Mstrious president the suggestion made to the belligerents was in accord with the traditional friendship be- tween the two nations. But being con- scious that we are fighting for man. kind, we find ourselves without the right to lay down our weapons before we can sign a peace really humane and which would spare the world from the repetition of such a terrible catas- trOphe as this war"
 The correspondent asked President Poincare whether France felt the re- turn of her lost provinces, Alsace and Lorraine, as well as the restoration of Belgium essential to the conclusion of a satisfactory peace.
 in our reply" said the president, we also have spoken of the restitu- tion of provinces torn away in the past by main strength or separated from us against the will of their in habitants. Note this, that during A years France has strangled the pain which her old wounds have caused her.
 But today, when war has been de- clared upon her without just motives; today, when her blood has been poured out through the fault of others, how could she fail to claim vindication founded upon right and justice? Presi- dent Wilson and the people of the United States certainly will under stand the high moral import of the answer of the allies"

 Much Booty Taken
 "The cargoes of the captured yes sels consisted principally of war ma terial for our enemies from America and foodstuffs including 5000 tons of wheat, 1000 tons of flour, 1900 hors- es. The Yarrowdale had on board IF motor lorries, one motorcar, 6,300 cases of rife cartridges, 30,000 rolls of barbed wire and $500 tons of steel bars, besides a large quantity of meat, bacon and sausages.
 Crews Are Prisoners
 "Of the vessels sunk, three of the British were armed. Among the crews of the captured vessels are 103 subjects Of neutral states, who, as well as enemy subjects, have been re- moved as prisoners of war in as much as they had taken pay on armed enc my vessels. The commander of the prize crew is Deputy Officer Bade- witz.
 The bringing in of the Yarrowdale has been kept secret up to this time for military reasons, which, in view Of the British admiralty statement of January F, are no longer operative.
 Tt is noteworthy that the British admiralty resolved to announce to the British public these losses, which date from some considerable time back, only when the losses were made known to the neutral world by the ar rival of the Japanese prize, Hudson Maru, in a Brazilian port"
 The British steamer Yarrowdale was last reported in shipping regis ters as having sailed from New York December 1 and arriving at Havre prior to January 2
 The steamer has been mentioned in reports for the British admiralty as among overdue vessels captured by the German raider in the south At lantic and as having been sent away by the raider with 400 members of the crews of the sunkcn vessels.
