CITY'S DESIRE
FOR SHADE TREES
IS COMMENDED
State Commissioner of For
estry Suggests Council Take
Immediate Action

Robert S. Conklin, State Commits
sioner of Forestry, in letter to E.
u. Gross, superintendent of City
Parks, endorses the tree planting
movement started in this city and
promises his hearty cooperation in
every way possible. Mr.. Conklin is
very appreciative of the efforts of
the City Forester in this direction,
but expresses the belief that better
results can be obtained by the
planting of a larger variety of trees
and limiting the use of Norway
naples. Mr.. Conklin is pleased to
note the interest of the city for
ester in planning a comprehensive
campaign and adds that the city is
badly in need of Just such attention
as the forester proposes. He adds
numerous suggestions gained from
his wide experience and expresses
the belief that the city and not the
individual should be in charge of
the trees. Council he notes, is fully
empowered to act and the passage
of an ordinance is all that is needed
to greatly widen the powers of the
municipality with respect to street
trees
Much interest has been aroused in
the planting movement and numer-
Gus requests have been made to the
Park Department for trees. There
are fully 500 in the nursery that
can be used and should be used for
this purpose. They are, rapidly be-
coming overcrowded in their present
quarters and should be removed.
The Park Department will cooper
ate in this respect and detailed
plans will be worked out shortly.

CLAIM GAINS
Sympathetic Strike
of Lake Seamen
Said Nearer

Interest to-day in the nation
wide steel strike is centering in
Pittsburgh, where the national
committee for organizing iron
and steel workers is meeting
this afternoon.
Rioting broke out this morn
ing at Cleveland. Three lives
were lost in riots last night in
Western Pennsylvania.
Reports from all steel centers to-
day recorded little change in the
alignment of the opposing forces of
the labor unions and the steel com
panies. In the Mahoning Valley of
Ohio, the strikers success is COM
pete. The industry which is the
backbone of Youngstown and IA
score of neighboring villages is
paralyzed and all it's $4,000 wage
earners idle. Elsewhere the struggie .
is being carried on with varying sue
cess, the issue still being doubtful
on the great strategic sectors radi-
atlng from Pittsburgh and Chicago.
In the Pittsburgh district the Car
lltBlt Cleel tOlll pdnS announced TO-
day that men were returning to work
in considerable numbers. AS usual,
these claims were stoutly denied by
William u. Foster, chief of staff for
the unions. who reiterated his as
sertion of yesterday that the strike
was spreading and claimed that two
additional large plants had been
closed to-day and that Homestead
will be idle by the end of the week.
The strikers placed pickets around
various plants for the first time.
Chicago Is Worse
The situation around Chicago is
more definite than that in the Penn
sylvania region. A majority of the
mills are closed and those which
are still operating are doing so
with reduced forces. The threat
ened sympathetic strike of the Lake
Seamen seemed nearer as the re-
suit of the refusal of the crews of
eleven ore freighters to dock their
vessels.
Important decisions affecting the
spread of the strike to allied indus
tries are expected to be the out
come of the meeting to-day in Pitts
burgh of the National Steel Work.

is the secretary. The question of
summoning not only the Lake Sea-
men but union trainmen to the as

be discussed at this meeting.

Skeleton Army Corps
in Each Department
Provided in New Plan
BY Associated Press.

Washington, Sept. "a = A new
plan for reorganization of the Regu-
lar Army on the basis of a skeleton
Army corps in each military depart
ment, with the department COM
mander also acting as commander
of the corps, has been laid before
Secretary Baker and General March,
chief of staff.
Officers who evolved the plan say
it would provide means for rapid
mobilization of six Army corps, or
of ten if the insular departments
were included. In the event of war
reserves drawn from the universal
training system would be called out
to fill up the units to fighting
strength. All troops within a de-
partment would be placed under the
department commander, to be or
ganized into such provisional divis-
lions or brigades as their numbers
warranted.
The project is an alternative for
the present War Departm to hold
enough divisions intact to form a
field Army, but to organize the corps
only when an emergency arose.

State Must Condemn Old
Entrance to Cemetery
Because Of Old Deed

1t will be necessary for the State
of Pennsylvania to condemn the
land occupied by the old entrance
to the Harrisburg Cemetery to get
ground for the north side approach
to the Memorial Bridge. The land
was originally given to the cemetery
association by the Forster estate
with provision for reversion in event
of use for any other purpose. The
State has the right of eminent do
main and while everything is
amicable will have to exercise it.
Arrangements were made to-day
for the erection of a temporary
bridge for pedestrians over the
Pennsylvania Railroad tracks at
State street during construction OF
the Memorial Bridge. The present
bridge, which contains trolley
tracks, will be removed. The trolley
system will run in Market street
and then out Fourteenth and in
Thirteenth.
Railroad spurs for material will
be run in State street to facilitate
material movements.

in this statute which prohibits

whisky must be certain that it is
to be used for medicinal purposes
