NEW ERA IN THRIFT HABITS
Postmaster Deffnbaugh of Oakland,
Interviwed by The Republican.

A new era in the handling of the
domestic finances of the American
people, and a changed attitude to
favor the habits of thrift is seen by
Postmaster Deffinbaugh, of Oakland,
in the mental poise of purchasers of
government Thrift and War Savings
Stamps through the post office de-
partment.
"The educational campaign on
thrift conducted by the government
has been a wonderful help" said Post
master Definbaugh, "and / am con-
fident that people are absorbing the
fundamental ideas of thrift.
I'm these days of peace people have
assumed a sane, preserving attitude
in their purchase of government saw
ings stamps. Those who hastily, and
impulsively bought the stamps seem
to have disappeared from our count
erS.
"The recent buyers have held on to
their stamps and have shown no evil
dence to redeem them lat an early
date. l am convinced that this is due
to the fact that they have recognized
the benefits of steady, systematic
saving, for their own good and for
the advancement of those they love.
"Chance remarks that have come
to me strengthen these beliefs, l
could mention numerous instances
of people who have saved money this
years for, perhaps, the first time in
there lives. From being a people of
lavish sponders, it would seem that
we are learning the wisdom of thrift.
Any movement, such as the govern
ment saving campaign, which teaches
thrift, is bound to do good People
who see the sense in this want to
save-and they invest their savings
in Thrift and War Savings Stamps

RUSSELLITES DID NOT
HAVE A FAIR TRIAL
Reversal of Their Conviction Or
dered by the u. S. Circuit
Court of Appeals.

New York, May 15.-Reversal of
the conviction of Joseph F. Ruther-
ford and seven other members of the
International Bible Students Asso-
citation and allied organizations, who
were found guilty of violation of the
espionage act, was ordered to-day
in an opinion of the United States
Court of Appeals here.
The opinion states that the defend
ants, who were convicted by jury
before Federal Judge Harlan C..
Howe in Brooklyn, did not have a
fair trial. After the convictions last
June Rutherford, president of the
association, and six of the other
seven defendants were sentenced to
Imprisonment at Atlanta Peniten-
tiary each for 20 years The associa-
ton was founded by the late "Pas-
tor" Charles T. Russell.
On the day the men were SEN
fenced the Department of Justice is
sued a statement declaring that ''un-
| der the guise of religious work" the
defendants circulated throughout the
country, including several Army can
tonments, "a large amount of vicious
antiwar propaganda" The state
ment added that the Italian govern
ment had complained that the Watch
Tower Bible and Tract Society, with
which the defendants were identified,
chad succeeded in circulating in the
Italian armies a quantity of antil
war propaganda, which had been
mailed into Italy from Greece"
The six sentenced to prison with
Rutherford are William E. Van Am
burgh, treasurer of the Watch Tower
Society; Robert J. Martin, the socie-
tvs auditor; Frederick H. Robinson,
Rutherford's personal representative;
Alexander Hugh Mcmillan, superin-
tendent of Bethel Home, the Russell
/ headquarters in Brooklyn, ana
George H. Fisher and Clayton j.
Woodwork, both of Scranton, Pa,
directors of the International Asso-
citation. They were subsequently re-
leased on bail by the United States
Supreme Court pending appeal.
The eighth defendant, Giovanni de
/ Cecca, who translated some of the
( literature into Italian, was sent to
Atlanta for 10 years and was SINH
/ larly released

!, WILSON'S WAR POWERS
ARE TO BE WITHDRAWN
Senator Watson Introduces Bill
to Restore Conditions in the
Government to Normal


Washington, May Is. Immediately
upon the opening of the special ses-
sion Senator James E. Watson, of
Indiana, introduced a resolution to
take from the President all of the
extraordinary powers granted him
by Congress for the carrying on of
the war and to repeal the espionage
law.
The Administration has shown a
tendency since the signing of the
armistice to continue the privilege
granted it of driving the country by
force of authority in the direction of
State bolshevism. The seizure of the
cables, the pronouncement of the
former Secretory of the Treasury
McAdoo in favor of the retention by
the Government of the railroads for
a period of five years, the fixing of
prices, the attempt to retain control
over the telephone and telegraph
wires, a proposal to operate the coal
deposits of Alaska, and to build homes
for soldiers in the West are urged by
members of Congress as proofs CT
this. 1t is believed by Senator
Watson that much of this tendency
comes from the usurpation of power
by the executive branch of the
government.
AS result of the Indiana Senator's
move it is likely that an accounting
will be ask of the S100,000,000 grant
ed the President for national defense
purposes. 1t was charged by Re-
preventative Coed, of Iowa, and sub
stantiated with proof, at the end of
the last session that S5,000,000 had
been diverted to a Connecticut corp
Grafton headed by Vance Mccormick,
of the War Trade Board, for the
purpose of doing business of all kinds
in any part of the world 1t is the
intention of Congress to get at
whether the entire sum was spent for
the purpose for which it was intended.
The President was given extraordi-
nary power to reorganize the bureaus
of the government as he thought fit,
without the slightest check on the part
tof the legislative branch. This will
all be done away with by Senator
Watson's resolution, if enacted into
law, as will his special powers of
appointment on the civil side of the
/ Army and Navy, and his Bureau of
Public Information, supervised by
George Creel, for the acceleration of
public opinion toward the, men and
methods favored by him, which
aroused the decided resentment of
many members of both the House
and Senate even during the period
when the war was still actually in
progress.

OAn4AND'S NEW BAND
Will Be Ready to Start Rehearsals
Early Next Week.

The new instruments ordered for
the recently organized Municipal
Concert Band of Oakland, are arriv-
ing almost daily. and by the end of
the present week or the first of next
week, all the members expect to be
equipped with the instruments assign
ed them, and it is expected that re-
hearsals will begin very shortly under
the very able and efficient instruction
of Prof. w. H. McIlwee, of Keyser, w.
Va, who has gained the reputation of
having in the McIlwee Concert Band
of that place the best organization of
the kind between Baltimore and
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1919-05-22

Wheeling, and which is conceded to be
the best band in the State of West
Virginia at this time.
Prof. McIlwee needs no introduc-
ton to the people of Oakland, as he
directed the former band here, which,
as is well known. was the best the
town ever had, and he feels confident
with the promising material at hand
that he will be able to have one at
least as good, if not better, in a COM
paratively short time.
1t is earnestly hoped that the citi-
zens of Oakland will accord the new
organization their heartiest support,
as they have done in the past. Bands
and like musical organizations are
public institutions that no community
can well do without and hold place
with the progressiveness of the pres
ent times, and Oakland should not and
will not be behind other and smaller
towns in this respect, therefore as the
members have bought their instru-
ments at their own individual expense,
which has been considerable, it is felt
by those interested that some outside
financial assistance should be forth
coming from our citizens and sub
scription has been prepared which will
be presented to the business men and
others who feel an interest in civic
affairs, and it is hoped that those
signing the paper will make their con-
tributions liberal, as should be-
