the duties of administrative cffieialss
or the interests of the government are
involved When a difference Of epin-
ion on the question of jurisdiction arises
between these courts, it Is decided by
a court Of conflicts composed Of mem-

not suffer its own courts of law 10 de
termine their jurisdiction, one can hard
IL expect that it would allow an inter
national tribunal to do so.
For this reason the covenant Of Paris,
while making plans for Judicial tri-
bunal and setting up council of state
men, does rot provide that al jastiei-
able questions shall be submitted 10 the
first and all other matters to the sos-
ond, but allows any state to claim In
effect that the question is not justiei-
able and to require its reference 10 the
council This is not the best arrange
ment conceivable, but it IS far better
than having no method of settling dis
putes except military force.

SOIL TESTS A GOOD THING.

The farmer who does not know his soil as the stud
ent knows his books is not altogether wise man. Up
the soil he must depend for the reward for all his back
breaing toll He may pow and plant and tend; weather
conditions may be unusually favorable; but if his soil is
poor unsred to hs crop ms efforts VIII a to prosper
so feebly that he will reap Encouragement
In these days of science farmer need run this risk
matter where he lives how poor ne may be He can
send samples of his various soil to the agricultural col
ege of his state where they will be carefully analysed,
they lack what fertilizer is required and the best way to
procure it.
II was lack of such knowledge as this which led to
the abandonment of many farm in the eastern states
and sent many hard-working farmer to the poorhouse
or his toil-wOm wife to the asylum
Before a businessman invests his money in busi-
ness he investigates it from the ground up it's past his
tory and its present condition Upon that foundation he
bases his future operations.
Just so for the farmer the test of the soil reveals
what has been taken out of what is its present condition
and what it needs put into it to make it pay in the future

Accuses U. S. Soldiers
of Crossing Border and
kidnapping Mexicans

Washington, Oct. 1S.-The Mexi-
can consul at Preside. Texas. has
reported to Ambassador Bonillas
two alleged invasions. of Mexican ter-
ritory which he says has involved the
kidnapping of MeXicans by American
soldiers. The consul in his report
said he had complained to the prop
er United States military authorities
and that the soldiers were arrest
ed and the MeXicans freed and their
arms, which had been taken by the
soldiers, restored to them. No COM
plant has been made or is contem-
plated by the ambassador to the
American State Department it was
said at the embassy to-day, because
the incidents have been promptly
settled by the action of the military
authorities and the Mexican govern
ment does not care to create "situ-
alton" by filing a formal protest
On one occasion the consul claim
ed, three American soldiers went
across the border to the town of San
Juan and seized a number of MeXi-
cans, searched them and their houses
and carried them back into United
States territory with the arms they
found. The other occasion, the con-
sui alleges, was in the town of Bar
ranca de la Luge and Mexican citi-
zens seized were taken to the town
of Maria, Texas, where they were
being theld by the soldiers when the
consul secured their release through
the military commander at Maria.

SENATE HOPES
TO FINISH PEACE
TREATY TEXT
Proposal TO Equalize Vote of
l.. S. and Great Britain
Only Amendment
DOCUMENT BEING READ
Not Yet Half Through After
Many Weeks of Con-
sideration

Washington, Oct. 1S. - Senate
reading clerks to-day again were
faced with the prospect of continu-
alton of the reading of the long
document in which is Incorporated
the basis of peace between Germany
and the United States and Associated
powers, and the Covenant of the
League of Nations. After many
weeks. before the SeEate, the docu-
ments reading is no. yet half COM
pleted, but it was hoped to finish
it to-day.
Only one major proposal for ac-
tual amendment of it's terms now
impending, the johnson proposal to
equalize the votes of the u. S. and
Great Britain in the League Assem-
bly,.
When the Senate convened to-day
there came up under the rules a
resolution by Senator Walsh, DEM
ocrat Montana, which would give
it as the sense of the Senate that
whenever the United States be-
comes a member of the League of
Nations, the state of affairs in Ire
land and the right of its people to
self government" would be pre-
sented to the League Council and
Assembly by the American repre-
SentatiVeS.

BACHELORS
ENVY MARRIED MEN
Uncle Sam Declares Benedcts May Make and Drink 200
Gallons of Wine Each Year, While the Unmarried
May Not Even Wet Their Whistles
Sobriety VS.. matrimony.


That is the wav, Uncle Sam has
matched 'em up and Ephraim
Lederer, collector of internal rev.
enue, will be the referee. The only
trouble is that Matrimony may
draw heavily on the thinning ranks
of Sobriety's rooters so that the lat
ter will go into the fight without a
man in his corner. Odds may be
posted after the following articles
for the fight have been perused.
According to Mr.. Lederer's posters
no single man may make wine this
fall, no matter how his tongue rasps
in his mouth for just wee drop"
denied him by the prohibition laws.
But with the benedicts it is some
thing else again. Each married man
may make 200 gallons of the in
toXicating fluid. No matter how his
heart aches for his unmarried
brother, he may not let him wet
his lips. Neither may the married
winemaker remove any of the fer
mented grape from his home, nor
yet give any to boarders nor mem
bers of his household who live under
separate roofs.
Another queer quirp of the recent
Congr essional act declares that if
any man has left his wife he must
join the dry ranks of his single
brethren. Only if he lives with the
spouse he promised to support for
life may he turn topper and keep
within the law.
To keep all entries straight Mr..
Lederer has warned all winemakers
that they send him notice in the
Federal building Philadelphia,
headquarters of this revenue district,
that the juice of the grape is be-
ing fermented.

Appeal of Wasson to
Have Name Printed on
Ballots Is Dismissed
BY Associated Press.

Pittsburgh, Oct 1S.-The Supreme
Court to-day dismissed the appeal of
Common Pleas Judge Henry G..
Wasson to have his name printed on
the ballot at the November general
election as a candidate for re-elec-
ton. The act of 1919. the constitu-
tionality of which was questioned IN
the appeal, was held to be valid in
the courts declaration, and not con-
flicting with an act on the question
of few years previous.
The, Supreme Court decision was
the result of an appeal by Judge
Wasson from the Dauphin county
court decision Tuesday last, when
he was denied the right to have his
name printed on the ballot and
when mandamus proceedings filed
against the Secretary of the Com
monwealth were dismissed.
The Supreme Courts decision also
upholds Judge George Kunkel's de-
cision in the Dauphin county court,
in which the constitutionality of
the act of 1919 providing for the
nonpartisan election of judges and
re-establishing the manner of ascer-.
taining sole nominees was declared
valid.

URGES USE OF.
DEAD TO PROLONG
LIFE OF LIVING

z g Oct. 1S.-Dr. Geor re-
Vororrosf, who claims he can
postpone old age by grating in
terstitial glands, points out in an
article in the Journal to-day that
the internal secretion of glands
such as the thyroid and supra
renal continue alive for three
hours after the death of the body
and, therefore, advocates that
bodies of young and healthy per-
sons killed in accident should
be rushed to hospitals, where pa
tients are suffering from curable
maiadies. He says the grating
of the glands could be grouped
and put in cold storage where
they could be kept indefinitely.
Unfortunately" writes DIR.
NoronoIf, "prejudices and law
now prevent this. Our SECULAR
customs require that our per
ishable bodies be cons gned to
the earth, where they slowly and
uselessly are consumed"

Continued Menace From
Baltic Situation Makes
Conference Uneasy
Bp Associated Press.

Paris, Oct. 18.-The inter-allied
military commission to superintend
the evacuation of the German forces
of General Won der GoltZ will leave
for the Baltic states probably within
q very few days as there is great
uneasiness in Paris over the Baltic
situation, the continued menace
from the presence of these troops in
the Baltic region, and the increas-
ing possibility that Petrograd may
soon change hands and thus put all
Northern Russia into the same un-
settled state which prevails in the
Baltic provinces.
This it is feared would afford a
wonderful opportunity for a COM
mander of the type of General Won
der Goltz, who has demonstrated
unusual strength as leader of
guerrilla warfare such as that now
common in Northern Russia and
who has surrounded himself with
fearless adventurers of a similar
character. These might possibly
show greater powers of organization
in Soviet Russia than the Russian
leaders who now are pressing on to-
ward Petrograd and Moscow, ana
might turn the overthrow of Boil
shevism into a decided German vic
tory.
Investigators who have recently
been in the Baltic provinces have
reported to the Peace Conference
that General Won der GoltzSundoubt-
edly has plans prepared for an east
ward movement If opportunity
should offer and probably is
ready to COVE Central Russia
new government of German making.
For this reason members of the
Peace Conference are anxious that
the rehabilitation of the forces of
General Won der Goltz be effected
Immediately lest his troops move
into Soviet Russia and greatly COM
plicate affairs should the Lenine
be overturned.

HELP RELIEVE
HOME SHORTAGE
Many New Houses Are in the
Course of Construction
Throughout City
LITTLE FRAME BUILDING
Outlying Districts Rapidly Be-
ing Covered With Homes
and Apartments

Although there is still a serious
housing shortage in the city, Harris
burg has started on a record break
ing building boom and SINCE Janu-
airy Of this year permits have been
Issued for the construction of 271
new dwellings, costing s1,OS7,6O0 to
erect.
More than 400 permits for all
building work have been issued at
the office of Building Inspector
James H. Grove and the total cost
of the projects is s2,311,46O, by far
the largest amount of construction
IN the history of the bureau.
Brick Construction
In addition to the many houses
which have been built or are under
construction, many other properties
were remodeled and converted into
apartments, while few new apart
ment houses were built.
Fourteen varieties of construction
of dwellings have been built during
the year, the greater number of
houses being of brick or similar
fire-resisting materials. Only thir-
teen frame houses have been built
at a cost of $4,000, while permits
were issued for 1852 brick dwellings,
to cost $60S, 100, more than half the
total cost of all houses being erected
this year.
Near Suburbs
Most of the homeebuilding opera
tions are being done in outlying sec
tiors of the city, particularly in the
Tenth Thirteenth and First wards.
AS result of the construction of
more homes in these districts, the
city IS gradually stretching out and
reaching closer to many nearby
boroughs and villages.
IN addition to the permits for
brick and frame houses, dwellings of
other types are being completed,
for which the number and estimated
cost follow:
Brick ard frame, seventeen
houses, to cost $4,000; brick and
stone, eleven, $4,000; brick and
stucco, fifteen, $69,7 concrete
block, three, $4,000; stone, three,

Paris, Oct. 1S.-The following no.
tice was posted at the Stock Ex-
change this afternoon:
"OFFICIAL. PETRoGRAD HAS
BEEN TAKEN"
While unconfrmed reports from
Scandinavian and Finnish sources re-
assert to-day the capture of I<ron-
stadt and the entrance of General
Yudenitch's army into Petrograd, au-
thoritative information at hand only
goes so far as to assert the capture
of Gatchina, % miles from Petrograd,
with Indications that Krasnoe Selo
Cred village), 16 miles almost direct
ly south of Petrograd, may also have
fallen. The capture of Gatchina, ac-
cording to British war Office informa-
tion, occurred only yesterday, al
though the scandinavian advices had
been announcing this as a fact for
several days.
Near Krnsnala GOrka
On the left Esthonian troops CO.
operating with General Yudenitch are
just outside of Krasnaia Gorka (Red
hilD on the Gulf of Finland about
further advance toward Petrograd
seems held up by the guns of Kron-
stadt and of the Russian fleet operat-
ing under it's protection. From CAT
china General Yudenitch, again. ac-
cording to the British war office re-
ports, holds a fairly straight north
and south line 60 miles due south to
Luga on the Petrograd-Pskov rail-
way.
The island fortress Kronstadt is
evidently the key to Petrograd, and
so, long as it remains in BolsheVist
hands it will be extremely difhcult
to complete the campaign against
Petrograd by the capture of that
city. At Krasnoe Selo, the old sum-
mer camp of the Russian Guard
Corps, or even at Tsarskoe Seio
(Tsar's village) former winter resi-
denle of the Russian emperors,
which is IA miles south of Petrograd,
General Yudenitch's troops would
still be out Of range of the guns OF
the remaining battleships of the Boil
shevist Baltic feet, but the imme-
diate approaches to the city are com
manded by these warships, and the
line, which now resembles an IN
verted fish hook, can with dificulty'
be Strengthened out and the barb
brought into Petrograd to the north
until Kronstadt falls.
