Changes in WaterpOwer
Bill Are Recommended
By Secretary Baker

Washington. March 2.-Changes
IL the pending administration water
power bill to more clearly express
the intent of the legislation were
recommended to-day to Chairman
Sims of the House Special Waterpow-
er Committee. by Secretaries Baker.
Lane and Houston. who drew the
measure. They urged speedy pas
sage of the bill so as to stabilize the
power industry generally and en-
courage the building of extensions
to existing projects.
Development of waterpower is ur-
gently needed, the secretaries wrote.
if the United States is to maintain
it's proper place in world trade after
the war, or even to supply it's do
mestic needs. 1t also is necessary in
order to reduce the drain on the ma
tons coal and petroleum supplies,
particularly the latter. -
while the form of the bill which
has been presented for your con-
sideration is directly concerned with
waterpower development only" saws
the statement, "an adequate solution
of this problem will have a faVora BILE
and stabilizing effect upon the whole
power industry. Probably no con-
siderable increase in new water
power dev elopment can be expected
imm ediately, but legislation is ur-
gently needed in order TO put exist
ing waterpower developments,
which have been made under in
adequate law. into a position of Sc
curity which will enable them to
make extensions and to meet ma
turing obligations upon favorable
terms.

Vim Truck Displaces
Express Company

An interesting example of what
the motor truck can do and it's
value when haste is needed, is fur
nished by p. +. Conroy. the Newport,
X. L., dealer in Vim half ton delivery
cars. Mr.. Conroy was the driver on
this express trip and takes consid-
erable delight in telling the story.
The wife of a prominent passen-
ger car dealer in Newport owned a
car that was built in Chicopee Falls,
Mass, and the engine needed over
hauling, in fact the whole power
plant needed to be inspected and re-
paired. The express company would
not guarantee delivery in less than a
week, so her husband decided to
load it on his Vim truck and Mr.
Conroy offered to make the trip.
The journey from Newport to
Chlcopee Falls, a distance of 14S
miles was made in a pouring rain
and the total weight carried was
1,S42 pounds. Nevertheless under
these unfavorable conditions, the
run was made in eight hours with
out trouble of any kind. as was the
return trip. A week later the Vim
went back for the engine and car
ried it without any kind of trouble
back to Newport on nine gallons of
gasoline. The Vim dealer in this city,
declares that such performances are
so common for Vim cars that their
owners do not consider them at all
remarkable.

Schuylkill county has been the

In the general assembly TO close the
Empire state to hunting Of ruffed
grouse for two years has stimulated
the interest and the petitions are be-
ing signed up in every county in
that line. The plan of the State
Game Commission is to systematize
the circulation of the petitions so
that one man will look after the ad-
Vertisements, affidavits and other
matters required by law and see that
the papers are in proper form and
comply with all provisions when
they are forwarded to the office of
the State Game Commissioner.
In this connection it is interesting
10 note that the movement to pro-
tect the ruffed grouse is a national
one. When l was in Washington
short time ago" said DR.. Joseph
kalbfus, Secretary of the Game
Commission. II found a very gener-
al interest in this plan. | made
some inquiries with the idea of buy
ing some grouse to stock our state,
but found no one had any to sell
and that the bulk of the people were
trying to keep what they had. Men
from the southern states and the
coast were very emphatic about
Keeping what they had and inqutr-
les / made showed that they con-
templated closing grouse hunting.
Even in Canada the movement is on
and in seven provinces the grouse
will not be hunted this year. The
bulk of the states have closed hunt
ing or will do so for a period of two
years; only few will try one year"

Date Marks Anniversary of
Americas Entrance
Into Conflict

Washington, March 2.-Secretary
McAdoo last night named April 6,
1918, as the date for the opening of
the third Liberty Loan campaign.
1T is the first anniversary of our
entrance into the war against the
Kaiser" Secretary McAdoo said
THE amount, terms and conditions
of the loah have not been decided.
because these features are depend
ent upon further legislation" In
making the announcement, Secre-
tary McAdoo continues: w..
Il expect To ask Congress at an
early date to grant the necessary
authority. OF course, the opening
date of the campaign is somewhat
dependent upon the new legislation,
but it is hoped and believed that the
matter can be considered and de-
termined in ample time to begin the
campaign on the date suggested.
April will forever be q conse-
Grated day in American history, and
ii seems peculiarly appropriate that
the opening of the second year OF
our participation in this war for
the honor and rights of America
and the freedom of the world should
be celebrated with a nationwide e
drive for another Liberty Loan" he
continued THE campaign should
begin with great demonstrations OF
patriotism in every city, town and
hamlet in the country; that will
truly express the spirit of the
aroused America"
"On this date every American
should pledge anew to his govern
ment the full measure of his re-
sources and resolve, to make every
required sacrifice in the same fer
vent spirit that impels our gallant
sons in the trenches of France and
on the waters of the Atlantic to shed
their blood in Americas sacred
cause.
THE campaign. in all probability,
will last three or four weeks, and
announcement of the opening date
is made at this time in accordance
with my promise to make public all
matters connected with the loan as
soon as determined and in order
that ample time may be given every
community to prepare for the
event"

Paris, March 2.-An historic docu-
ment showing the German govern

terday by Stephen Pichon, the
French foreign minister,
The minister was speaking at the
Sorbonne upon the anniversary of
the protest made by representatives
of the national assembly of Alsace-
Lorraine against annexation to Ger
many.
Il will establish by documents"
said Nj. Pichon. that the day the
Germans deliberately renderes in
evitable the most frighttul of wars
they tried to dishonor us by the most
cowardly completely in the ambush
into which they drew Europe. l will
establish it in the revelation of a
document that the German cham
cellor, after having drawn up pre-
served carefully-and ypu will see
why--in the most profound mystery
OF the most secret archives.

we have known only recently of
its authenticity and ii defies any sort

Schoen German ambassador to
France), was charged by a telegram
from his chancellor to notify us of
a state of danger of war with Rus
sia and to ask us to remain neutral,
giving us eighteen hours in which to
reply.
What was unknown until to-day
was that the telegram of the Ger
man chancellor containing these in
structions terminated with these
words:
eff the French government de-
clares it will remain neutral, your
eXcellency will be good enough to
declare that we must, as Il guaran-
tee of its neutrality, require the
handing over the fortresses of Toul
and Verdun: that we will occupy
them and will restore them after the
end of the war with Russia. A reply
to this last question must reach here
before Saturday afternoon at 4
o'clock.
That" said NJ. Pichon, lis how
Germany wanted peace at the mo-
ment when she declared war. That
is how sincere she was in pretending
that we obliged her to take up arms
for her defense. That is the price she
intended to make us pay for our
baseness if we had the infamy to
repudiate our signature as Prussia
repudiated hers by tearing up the

Bakers Who Violate Victory

Local food administrators have

stltuteS that they have been using
Corn flour is the -four which has

using rye flour or meal which COM

Following IN former instructions,

be made and licenses will be re-
voked.
Plenty of Cereals
Regarding the supply of substi-
tute foodstuffs in the city, Mr.. Heinz
has wired local Administrator Nc
Cormick as follows:
we wish to remove a serious mis-
apprehension on the part of many
administrators and the public as to
real situation regarding relative
quantity wheat flour and substi-
tutes now on hand in PENNSYLVANIA.
Actual survey just completed cover
ing various parts of state show in
practically every instance twice the
amount on hand in total fourteen
substates wheat flour. Wheat flour
will become much scarcer while sub
stitutes will continue to be more
plentiful. Real trouble if retailers
and some consumers object to using
rice oatmeal, cornmeal and other
cereal substitute flour. The public
generally must Immediately under
stand the necessity of using these So
called undesirable substitutes as they
contain the same elements of nour-
ishment. Consequently when people
eat rice in various forms or corn
meal mush or friend hominy they
would not suffer in any particular if
they had no bread at ALL"
