BRITISH BALLOTS
TO DECIDE GEORGE
PEACE PROGRAM
Old Party Lines Shattered by
War; Women Will Vote
in England

London. Nov. 15.-The Issue in tine
coming elections Is whether the coun-
try will endorse Lloyd Georges Gro-
posal that the Present coalition gov
ernment. with himself as Premier,
shall be continued after the war for
the work of making peace and carry
ing on the labor OF reconstruction.
Never before were British political
conditions as chaotic az they are To-
day. The war has shattered old party
lines.
The electoral reform bill adopted
by Parliament during the summer o;
1917 virtually doubled the number
OF voters. Il gave the ballot to all
women over thirty, men over twenty
one and soldiers under twenty-one.
This added Elk million females and
two million males TO the voting lists.
Mr.. Lloyd George has before him
the difficult task OF trying to keep
together that majority of the Con-
scrvative party which supported his
war measures and enough Liberals to
give him a balance of power. The
decisive factors will be how many
Liberals will follow him and what
the Labor party will do.
So far rs Ireland is concerned, the
tital disappearance OF the old Ma
tlonalist party Of Redmond and Dill
Ion from Westminster. The Sim
Feiners are expected to sweep South
ern ireland. but the members elected
by the Sinn Fein always refused to
take their seats.
In addition to trying to hold to-
gether his Conservative and Liberal
supporters, LLOYD George is trying to
reconcile the Asquith faction. Mr..
Asquith could have had a high scat
in the present cabinet If he would
have accepted it. There We're two
obstacles. however. home rule and
protection. one of these the Con-
servatives will not have and the
other is objected to by the Liberals.
Lloyd George addressed a large
group of Liberal members from both
houses of Parliament on Tuesday. An
drew Bonar Law, Chancellor of the
Exchequer. also presented the coali-
tion program al a meeting of Con-
servatives. This program is said to
include safeguarding" agriculture
and essential manufactures, imperial
preference ana home rule without
coercion of the six counties of Ulster.
Begs Liberals to stand Out
Lloyd Georges speech before the
Liberals advocated a league of n3-
tions and emphasized the need of ma
tional unltN lie begged the Liberals
not to sulk. Limited protection and
halfway home rule do not satisfy the
stalwarts of either party. The great
est asset OF lloyd George is his per-
sonal popularity

Tells How Harrisburg
Got Clean Streets

State Librarian Montgomery Is
thus quoted by tho Philadelphia
Ledger on the subject OF the clean
streets of Harrisburg:
Our State Librarian, Thomas L.
Montgomery, rises to point Of or
der. There is very little use in
complaining of dirty streets he
says, in default Of campaign for
cleanliness on the part of the people
themselves.
The contractor cannot be held
responsible for dirty habits on the
part of the public; 1t is a discourage
Uttered as soon as it has been
cleaned
In Harrisburg some years ago
an old Yale second baseman, "Chug'
McCopkey, was made city highway
commissioner.
HE started to have things clean
ed up by putting Il few white
Wings" in Market Square.
The boys had great deal of
fun with this force.
They kept the place so clean.
however, that the people in the next
zone demanded the same service.
So ii went on, until the city
limits were reached.
In the meantime. an appeal was
made to the inhabitants to observe
certain rules with regard TO refuse
matter-and the city became one of
the cleanest in the country, whereas
in previous years it had been most
uninviting.
There are sections of every town
where people who arenot naturally
clean are Colonized.
1t is the duty of the rest of the
citizens to see that they live in
that are reasonably clean
in order that the health of the city
may be preserved.
Writing pamphlets in second
story back rooms will not produce
any result - but a toulouse
visitation would.
- love every dirty street in Phil
adelphia, but it is a shock to me
TO see the conditions that exist in
neighborhoods where the most civil
lized influences prevail

Newspapers Vote "NO"
on President Going

New York. Nov. Is. - The New
York Times canvassed some OF the
leading newspapers Of the country
yesterday for opinion on the sugges-
ton that President Wilson attend the
Peace Conference. If it be held in Eu-
rope-he would. of course attend II
should it be held in this country.
The expressions of editorial opin-
ion are in a large majority or cases
against the proposal. The chiet arGu-
ments advanced show why the Prest-
dent should not attend conference
In Europe are:
1. That important domestic ques-
tions requiring his attention would be
likely to arise in his absence, in Con-
gress and out.
o.. That Mr.. Wilson, as President,
outranks the Prime Ministers, who
will attend the conference, and that
out Of this condition embCrra ssments
might arise.
5. The personal risk OF travel in

FEAR QUOTA WILL
NOT BE REACHED
Short Six Thousand Dollars in
United War Fund
Drive

At last nights meeting OF the So
lieitors OF the war fund drive, re-
ports showed that though practically
the whole town and surrounding ter
ritory has been covered, only about
$4,000 of the $4,000 quota has been
subscribed or paid. And what Is more
depressing IS the fact that though
the solicitors studied their returns
they cannot see more than $4,000
In sight by making return calls who
thus far have refused to contribute.
According TO the men In charge of
the drive, the large portion of citi-
zens have given below what was eX-
pected. but this is especially true of
men whose financial circumstances
would demand heavy contributions.
In several instances 500 expectations
became SIS contributions. and that,
perhaps. only with hard work. y
strong effort is to be made to have
subscriptions raised wherever 1T Is
possible. in order that the quota may
be met.

Indiana Man Crawled
Two Miles For Aid

Hammond. Tnd.-A story of grit
equaled only by some of the stories
of heroism of sildiers in No Mans
Land came here recently from a
physician at Nashville, Ind. Paul
Ringer, a farmer near Nashville,
seriously i'll with influenza, discov-
cred that his wife and four children
also were near death with the dread
ed disease. There was no help in the
house, and if the lives of his family
were to be saved he must have aid
at once. The Ringer home has no
telephone, and the nearest farmhouse
is two miles away.
Barely able to move, Ringer
dragged himself from the house and,
on hands and knees. painfully, inch
by inch, barely conscious most of the
time, he forced himself two miles
TO a public highway, where he wait
ed an hour before farmer came
along. Ringer weakly called out his
plea for help and became uncon-
scious. Neighbors took charge of
the Ringer family, while a physician
was summoned. Ringer is still un-
conscious and near death.
