Undaunted Overlook Girl
Is Anxious to Get Back

Ovcrbrook. - Undaunted by the
dangers which she experienced dur
ing the present Hun drive, Josephine
Hayden, of Overlook, has an
nounced her intention of returning
to France within a few months. For
year she has been driving a motor
truck loaded with supplies from
Paris to base hospitals.
When the Germans started their
spring offensive Miss Hayden aided
in rescuing the refugees from French
villages. For two weeks this 22-year-
old girl rushed from the actual firing
line to points more remote, carrying
hundreds of women and children to
safety.
IT don't feel that have done any,
thing very unusual" she said; there
are many young American women
working now IN France, and a great
many more are needed. What the
French need most is airplanes. They
don't let anyone coming back lose
sight of that fact for a moment"
Miss Hayden, daughter of Row
land C. Hayden, 5958 Woodbine
street, Overlook, was sent abroad

BAKER AGREES
TO NEW DRAFT
FROM 18 TO 45
Army of Overwhelming Num-
berS Could Thus Be Put
in the Field

Washington. June 90 Secretary
of War Baker has been won over tc
the program to extend the military
service draft act to all men between
eighteen and forty-five years.
1t will apply the work fight
order TO many millions of men not
aHected at this time. The Army au-
thorlties do not seek nor do they ex-
pect that Congress will give them the
right to say just where and at what
occupation a man shall work, but as
matter of military necessity the
Army feels 1t must have the power
TO say that if man of recognized
military age and qualification is not
deVoting himself to work connected
with tN-war, then he must be called
TO serve with the colors of his coun-
try.
Baker Announces Approval
The War Department mas not for
mally recommended the new legisla-
ton to Congress, but Provost Mar
shal General Crowder has been urg-
ing 1t and Secretary Baker said to-
day:
IF the amendment to the draft
act to extend the age limits to all
men between eighteen and forty
ilVe years is submitted to me l shall
recommend that it be passed"
This virtually settles the matter,
Tor there seems to be no doubt at
all that Congress is ready to follow
the advice of the military authori-
ties.
Youths Best Soldiers
1t has been demonstrated time and
time again, however, that boys be-
tween eighteen and twenty-one make
the very finest soldiers in the world
and 1t is further admitted that in
clusion in the Army of the classes
below twenty-one has virtually a neg
ligible effect upon the industries of
country.
For instance, it is said to be the
first plan of the military authorities
TO call into the Army all single mon
between thirty-one and thirty-siX
years of age. 1t is believed these will
fill the requirements of the Army for
some time to come, taken in con-
junction with the men who become
eligible automatically as they reach
twenty-one years of age.
Moving Fast to Front
Secretary Baker specifically con-
fined himself to-day to the years be-
tween eighteen and forty-five. The
head of the War Department had
hoped that it might not be neces-
sary to change the draft laws this
year but the speed with which
American troops have been sent
overseas and consequent quick alb
sorption of so many of the men ori-

PARDON BOARD IN
RECORD SESSION
May Not Finish Long List Be.
fore Late This Evening;
Members Speak Out

Members of the State Board of
Pardons who are sitting to-day to
hear the list commenced yesterday
morning may not be able to reach
decisions until late tonight. The
list to-day included a series of Phil
adelphia cases with the application
for release of Freda frost, granted
commutation from a death sentence
in 1918, listed for late in the after
noon, to be followed by two Allie
gheny county first degree cases. Dur
ing the hearing of the application for
release of Cora Dayton, convicted of
damaging railroad property while
masquerading as man with a COM
pany of tramps, Judge S. B. Sadler
sent a. letter of recommending mercy
and Secretary of the Commonwealth
Woods declared that such persons as
the convict should be kept under po-
lice supervision when released.
The first days session was enliv-
ened yesterday by a declaration from
Secretary of the Commonwealth
Woods that the Army should not be
made dumping ground for crimi-
nails. Il. NJ. Gilbert, of Lancaster. de-
clared that, If pardoned, Dr. d. F.
Kline would Immediately enter the
Army as a surgeon. but that the
Board would have to get busy be-
cause the doctor is near the age linn
1T. But this Board doesn't think the
Army and Navy of the United States
should be made a dumping ground
for all the criminals and degenerates
who through enlistment hope to Sc
cure release from just punishment"
declared Secretary of the Common
wealth Cyrus e. Wood. THAT sort
of an army will not win the war"
Deputy Attorney General Keller, op-
posing the Kline plea, declared he
couldn't get in the Army If he want
ed to, because the Government re-
fuse to accept morally unfit"
Lieutenant-Governor McClain also
enlivened proceedings when he told
j. w. Shannon, of Philadelphia, that
the fact that the Kings Daughters
asked him to take up Stewart Chill
sons case wasn't getting Chilson any
consideration. IT'S not very good
recommendation" said McClain, be
cause l find that the people who
make a practice of visiting prisons
the Kings Daughters and prison Wis
iting societies of that sort-are apt
not only to get soft-hearted, but soft
headed"
Chilsons attorney indicated that
the indefatigable authorities sent the
wrong man to prison.
We'll" said Attorney General
Brown, when it was indicated that
pardon would be forthcoming, "it will
be a great source of satisfaction to
Chilson, after serving two years in
the penitentiary, to know that doubt
exists as to whether he did it,
p. L. Walsh, of Scranton. who ap-
peared for Peter SlazZoka, one of a
party of five who beat fellow coun-
tryman to death, got scant satisfac-
tion when he said that SlaZzoka's six
years in Jail have beene plenty. He
was sentenced to eighteen and one
half years.
IF we recognized pleas of the sort
you are presenting to u.s." said Lieu
tenant McClain, wed have
a general jail delivery. And, any
ways, this Board isn't going to at
tempt to adjust race feuds, to the det-
riment of society in general"

ground at Sovilla, south of Nervesa.
River flinders Austrians
The waters of the Piave have come
to the aid of the strongly resisting
Italians. The British official state
ment on the fighting says that the
river has risen suddenly. The rise
has been sufficient to carry away
many of the bridges the Austrians
had thrown across the stream.
Emperor Charles, fearful that the
Austrians by themselves will not be
able to emulate the Austro- German
success of last fall on the Isonzo
line, personally is urging his troops
forward. The Emperor is said to de-
sire still greater efforts before calling
on Germany for help.
Meanwhile internal conditions in
Austria, especially as regards food,
are causing trouble. The city council
OF Vienna has protested against re-
duction of the bread ration and the
labor organizations in the Austrian
capital call for the "speediest general
peace" The food supplies in Aus
tria are reported at the lowest ebb
since 1914. Meanwhile there are re-
ports that peace demonstrations
have taken place in Berlin, Hamburg
and Cologne and that several per-
sons were killed and many arrested.
The German Crown Prince has not
repeated his attacks against the de-
lenses hnfnra uTh
600 of his troops were repulsed with
heavy losses in a night attack Tues
day. The front there again is quiet
and the French maintain their po-
sitions. Berlin says the effort was
more an artillery and mine thrower
ombardment than an infantry at
tack, but all other accounts agree
that the effort was in great force
and that it was broken up in des-
perate fighting in front of the
French lines.
Elsewhere on the western front
there has been only minor raiding
activity.
East of Chateau Thierry American
patrols have crossed the Marne in
boats and bested enemy patrols in
large number of Germans, the raid
ers brought back prisoners. Amer
ican bombing airplanes again have
bombarded Confians. railroad juno
tion midway between Verdun and
Metz, dropping thirty eight bombs.
German aggression in the Ukraine
is beginning to reap the whirlwind,
according to reports from Moscow.
A revolt on a large scale has broken
out in Kiev, the Ukrainian capital,
and there has been much street
fighting there. Forty thousand armed
peasants have risen and the revolt
has spread to the provinces of
Tchernigov and Poltava.

Interstate Commerce
Commission May Change
Daylight Saving Status

Washington.-Present application
of the Daylight Saving Law, as il
affects localities, will probably be
changed in detail by the Interstate
Commerce Commission before the
1918 spring advance touches Ameri-
can clocks, though IN main, investi-
cations now proceeding find the hour
advance working satisfactorily.
Examiners for the commission
have completed the taking of evil
dence on the subject in eastern and
mountain cities. but still have to
conclude hearings in the Middle
West.
At Ell Paso, Texas, June II, the
final hearings will be completed, and
after that formal reports to the COM
mission will be available.
While the duty of prescribing the
limit OF the four time zones in the
United States fell to the commission.
as a temporary eXpedient it adopted
the demarkations of Eastern, Cen
trail, Mountain and Pacific time as
made by railroads. and fixed a fifth
belt to govern Alaska.
The examiners were sent out To
see whether changes in the railroad
time limits would not convenience
business and social life If adopted.
They have found to date q number of
points. generally on the eastern edges
of time belts, which already had
systems of daylight saving by run
ming on the hours of belt adjacent
to them.
A dual system of time has been
found in several places in the United
States, where railroad time" and
town time" have both been custo-
marily recognized, the latter being
one hour faster than the former.
Some points have continued the sys-
tenn, even under the general time ad-
vance last spring, while others have
adopted a single standard. Rulings
will perhaps affect these.

United States Will
Move Slowly Against
Turk Raid in Persia

Washington, June 20.-Through
Spain and Sweden the American
government sought further informa-
ton to-day regarding the seizure of
the American consulate at Tabriz,
Persia, and looting of an American
hospital there by Turks. Only the
meager account of the incident con-
tanned in a dispatch yesterday from
Minister Caldwell at Teheran, has
reached the State Department.
There will be no hasty action by
the United States toward recognizing
what may have been an act of war
and thereby adding Turkey to the
nations enemies. A complete and
official report will be awaited be-
fore the State Department lays be-
fore President Wilson the informa-
tion upon which he will base a de-
cision as to whether he will ask Con-
gress for another war declaration.
