MOTHERS ARE
WARNED AGAINST
FAKE AGENTS
Soldiers Dependents Asked
to Surrender "Over-Pay"
to Stranger

Captain Henry NJ. Stine to-day no.
tilted the War Department that he be-
lieves an impostor is at work in Harris
burg endeavoring to mulct the depen-
dants of soldiers of allotments of pay
made by the Government. He has had
news of one mother of a soldier who
borrowed more than $40 which she
gave to man who represented himself
as Government agent and demanded
from her money which he said was
"over-pay."
This morning came Mrs Moreno
of Lee Vert Monyer who was killed
last fall in France, with the story that
this fellow had visited her at her home
yesterday and had demanded that she
pay over to him a sum of money which
he said was 'over-pay" given her by
mistake after her sons death. Mrs.
Monyer was greatly disturbed because
she realized that she had received al
lotments of pay after her sons death,
but she declined to comply because the
Government still owes her for pay due
her son in France up to the time of
his death and for compensation due her
as result of his death All she re-
ceived has been her insurance. So she
laid her case before Captain Stine to-
day, with the complaint that the man
who had visited her had been insolent
and had inquired further into her per-
sonal affairs than he had any business
to do. Captain Stine warns all soldiers
dependents against paying over money
to anybody representing himself as a
Government agent.

Address State Senate

The State Senate will honor Colo
mel Joseph H. Thompson, former

known in Harrisburg and in mill
tary circles throughout the State, by
holding a special session tonight al

Twenty-eighth Division ins France.
Colonel Thompson has great
story. He came home as comman-
der of the famous One Hundred and
Tenth Regiment of the keystone Di-
vision, formerly the old Fighting
Tenth" which covered itself with
glory in the Philippine campaign
and which lived up to its best tradi-
tions when it stopped the Hun in
his drive for Paris last year and
sent him hustling back toward the
Rhine. Colonel Thompson was bat
talon commander during the fight
ing and was promoted after the
armistice to be colonel and placed
in command of the regiment. He
was awarded the Distinguished
Service Cross for gallantry in action
and is a great favorite with the men
of the regiment, who recognize his
fighting qualities.

Tax Levy to Be Decided

City school directors met in spe-

the tax rate for the 1919-1920 school
year. 1t was said before the meeting
that there would be opposition to a
motion to raise the rate from IL 1-2
to 13 IL mills, one of the directors
declaring that by only raising the
rate one mill now and maintaining
the same rate next year, the present
deficit can be wiped out If economy
is practiced for the next year or
two. Other officials. however. declar-
ed they preferred to wipe out all out
standing debts and would likely

next June the district would have no

By Associated Press.

Ponta Delgada, May 81. -
With Commander A. c. Read
confident that he would reach
the coast of Portugal before
darkness tonight, thus achiev-
ing the coveted honor of max
ing the first transatlantic
flight, U. S. seaplane NC-4
started for Lisbon at 1918
o'clock this morning.
Aboard Before Sunrise
The crew of the seaplane, which
was the same as that which made
the memorable flight from New
Foundland to the Azores, boarded
the plane an hour before sunrise,
but it was not until several hours
later that the giant machine TAXED
outside the breakwater, headed to
windward and rose gracefully into
the air. She circled the harbor and
then headed for her destination
amid cheers from the sailors and
soldiers who lined the decks of the
ships in the harbor and the crowds
on the piers, together with the
shrieks of whistles from all the
steam craft within sight.
Disappears in Eastern Sky
The din of the salute was kept up
for several moments, the plane
meanwhile speeding on her way and
slowly disappearing in the bright
eastern sky.
The weather was almost perfect
this morning. with the warm spring
sun shining brightly on the waters
of the bay. There were but few
clouds in the sky and only a slight
northwest wind was blowing, which
was favorable to the flyers. Weather
experts predicted that the plane
might encounter cloudy weather and
possibly occasional rain squalls mid
way of the course, but this was not
expected to interfere with her prog
reSS.
Lieutenant Commander Read in
tends to remain in Lisbon over
night and start for Plymouth, Eng

permitting.
Destroyers Along Course
The course between here and Por-
tugal is marked by fourteen Amer
lean destroyers, stretched out along
the route to guide the f1iers and,
If necessary, give them assistance.
The getaway of the NC-4, which
was set for an early hour, was de-
layed by trouble with the fourth en-
gine of the plane.

JUNIOR O.. u. M.
AWAITS REPORT
ON INSURANCE
Deaths in War Drain on Re-
serve Fund; Local Mem
berS Are Affected

Members of the Junior o. u. A. NJ,
part of their insurance obtained through
the Funeral Benefit Association, which
was operated under the laws of Mary
land. The future of this class of bene-
fits depends entirely on the decision of
the Insurance Commissioner of the
State of Maryland, according to a state
ment to-day by local officers
At recent National convention OF
the order held in Baltimore, it was an
nounced that funds in the Funeral Bene-
fit Association were growing short be-
cause of the heavy drainage due to the
war. 1t was feared at that time, ac-
cording to reports, that the association
might become insolvent, and the State
Insurance Commissioner of Maryland
started an investigation. On the result
of this investigation, will depend the out
come.
These benefits while affecting many
hundred members in this locality who
have paid premiums into the association
each week, are entirely separate from
the benefits provided by the local lodges
and State organization. 1t is said. that
in the event of the Maryland authorities
declaring the Funeral Benefit Asso-
citation insolvent and appointing a re-
ceiver, local lodges may have to in
crease the weekly dues or decrease the
benefits How much local members will
lose in the Maryland Association is not
stated.
The benefits in case of death were
in many instances $3.50 for each mem
Der. Some local lodges are paying that
amount along with weekly benefits for
sickness. These will not be affected. 1t
is understood that each member paid
II cents weekly into the Funeral Bene-
fit Association in addition to dues to the
local lodges. How much of this they will
get back depends, it is said, on the
decision of the Maryland Insurance
Commissioner. General affiliated or
ganizations are said to be affected.

GERMANY READY
WITH REPLY TO
PEACE DEMANDS
Teuton Foreign Minister Is to
Hand Answer to Allies
Tomorrow
DISPATCH SHOWS BREAK
Sharp Division of Sentiment
Said to Prevail Among
Delegates
By Associated Press.

Germany's counter proposals to
the peace terms of the Allies will oe
completed by tonight and will be
presented to the Peace Conference
by Count Won Brockdorff- Rantzau,
chief of the German peace mission,
tomorrow, according to Paris ad-
vices.
Reply to Be Elaborate
The reply of the enemy represent
atives is expected to be very elab-
crate and voluminous. The fact
that the Peace Conference has been
informed by the German delegation
that no further extension of time is
to be asked would seem to indicate
that the documents to be turned
over tomorrow will be, Germany's
last word before taking a definite
attitude toward the terms of peace.
Dispatches seem to reflect quite a
sharp division of sentiment among
the Germans as to whether the
treaty should be signed.
RcparationS Puzzle Peacemakers
1t was announced last week that
the terms to be presented to Austria
would be considered at a plenary
session of the Peace Conference to
be held to-day. Since that time,
however, delays have been occa-
stoned by the difficulty of framing
the section of the treaty dealing
with reparations.
A portion of the terms, however,
may be ready for presentation be-
fore the end of the present week.
Reports Lack Confirmation
While there have been rumors
that the all-Russian government at
Omsk, headed by Admiral Kolchak,
is to receive recognition from the
Allies, there has as yet been no con-
firmation of the reports. 1t is indi-
Gated that certain guarantees are
demanded as a condition to the rec
ognition of the Omsk regime.
