level it viii take twice as many
goods to pay them off as the
Government received for them.
Wheat is two dollars a bushel.
To get five hundred bushels the
Government issues a thousand
dollar Liberty Bond. Say,
when the bonds mature. wheat
is worth dollar a bushel and
the Government taxes Farmer
Smith enough to pay off one
bond. Farmer Smith must sell
thousand bushels of wheat-
twice as much as the Govern
ment received--to pay the
bond.
But suppose Farmer Smith in
1918 sold five hundred bush
els of wheat and bought a Lib
erty Bond.k When the bond
natures the Government pays
him a thousand dollars. with
which he can buy twice as
much wheat as he sold in 1918.
In short, if prices fall-as
they quite certainly will-the
man who buys a government
bond now and holds it will ben
eft in chat the money he gets
back will have greater purchas-
ing power than the money he
handed over. Of course that
applies to any investment bear
ing a fixed return. The obvi-
Gus moral is: Save and invest
now.
In the last four years invest
ments with fixed returns have
yielded less and less purchas-
ing power. With falling prices
they will yield more and more
purchasing power.-Saturday

Shafer to Thrill City
With Battle Stunts in
His New Curtiss Plane

Walter j. Shaffer, former flyer
with the Lafayette Escadrille and
afterward an aviator with the
French Army until he was brought
down and captured behind the Ger
man lines, left this morning for
Philadelphia to secure big Curtiss
plane.
Accompanied by his brother, Ern-
est Shaffer, he will pilot the plane
from Philadelphia to Dauphin,
where it will be placed in the
hangar of the Liberty Aero Service
Corporation. Shaffer expects to
make the flight tomorrow and be-
fore leaving this morning said he
was going to give the city real ex-
hibition of stunts used by the Allied
aviators to outwit the Huns over the
western front.
Until the weather becomes too
severe, the plane will be used by
to take passengers on flights
over the .Susquehanna Valley. In
the spring the Liberty Aero Service
Corporation, with which he has as
sociated himself, plans to establish
a passenger and freight carrying
service between cities in the Eastern
United States.

NO SHORTAGE OF
FUEL FELT HERE.
DEALERS REPORT
Strike of Bituminous Miners
Finds Industries Well
Supplied With Coal

No effect of the bituminous coal
strike has been felt in Harrisburg.
Coal dealers have reported rush
for anthracite coal within the past
several days. Cool weather rather
than the strike accounts for this,
however, according 10 city dealers.
Industries of the city have not yet
been affected by the strike and no
rush for anthracite has been made
by them. River coal is used to a
large extent - users of this kind of
fuel report themselves comparatively
well supplied
Several large Industries. notice.
ably several steel companies. are big
users OF bituminous coal. They are
said, in every instance, to be com
paratively well supplied with fuel
Harrisburg will feel the effects of
the strike, probably. less than many
other communities. In few instances
do householders consume the soft
grade of coal, the industries are we'll
supplied, and absolutely no effect
OF the strike may be expected in
the city for from four to six weeks
at the very least, according to city
dealers.

Anti-Prohibition Forces APP
pear to Garry Crabbc Bill;
Other Three Safe

Columbus, o., Nov. 6. - Returns
from Tuesdays election compiled at
the Secretary of States office to-day
from 55 of the SS counties indicate
that the results on the ratification
of the Federal prohibition amend
ment and the Crabbe prohibition ems
forcement bill will be close, with
chances favoring the drys on the
ratification prohibition and the vets
on the Crabbe bill, according to Chief
Statistician Johnson.
The same returns are said to in
dicate defeat of the ga per cent.
beer proposal and also that to re-
peal the prohibition amendment.
These So counties, 33 of which are
complete and % incomplete, give the
vets a lead of 39,031 on ratification
of the Federal amendment and ST.
410 on the Crabbe bill. They also
give the vets lead of 22,999 on the
ga per cent, proposal and 1898
on the repeal prohibition.
The 33 counties still to report
gave a dry majority of 33,795 for
prohibition last year, and If this ma
jority was maintained last Tuesday
1t would indicate defeat of both the
2.75 and the repeal proposals by

TWOPLANS FOR
ENLARGING HOTEL
ARE CONSIDERED
Penn-Harris May Take More
Ground in Third or
Walnut Streets

While the officials of the Harris
burg Hotel Company, owner of the
Penn-Harris, decline to discuss the
persistent rumors of an arrangem ent
of the city's chief place of entertain
ment it is believed the expansion of
the big building is inevitable and
that the addition is likely to take
place within the year.
There has been no greater hotel
success anywhere in the United
States than the Penn Harris. 1t rep
resents the best community effort
conceivable and those who made
possible the new hotel are not likely
to fail to provide the additional
room space that seems to be de-
manded as result of the first years
experience. Just how the hotel
would be enlarged has not been sug-
gested, but there are two WAYS said
to be under consideration-one the
corner occupied by several buildings
at Third and Strawberry and the
other along Walnut street, facing
Capitol Park.
Notwithstanding present building
costs the need of more rooms at
the Penn-Harris is so great that
some definite action is almost ccr-
tain to be taken by the owners soon.
1t is said. Il. Y. Wallower, the pres
ident of the hotel company. is un-
derstood to have had the matter up
with the architect and directors.
1t is interesting to note that many
cities of the United States have
written to the Penn Harris for in
formation regarding the Harrisburg
community hotel plan. he fame
of the city's principal hotel, hav-
ing spread far and wide.
Next wednesday evening the Muz-
zle Club. the organization, of active
newspapermen ofthe city, will dedi-
date the corner set apart in the
Penn-Harris by the management for
the uses of the news writers of tho
city. Manager Wiggins has notified
the committee in charge that the
large room which he has selected
on the ballroom floor for the organi-
zation will hereafter be known as
the Muzzle Club Room. Governor
Sproul will be the guest of honor
at the dedication dinner.
