MAYOR ABLE TO SIGN
COUNCILMANIC BILLS
Roosevelt Boulevard Ordi-
nance to Be Among First of
New Measures Approved

Mayor Smith has recovered so FAR
from his recent attack of rheumatism as
to be able to give his attention today TO
the measures passed by both branches
of Councils yesterday. one of the nrst
bills that will receive his signature Is
the one changing the name of the North
east boulevard to Roosevelt Boulevard.
For ten days following the last ses-
sions of Councils the Mayors illness
prevented him from signing measures
approved. He has regained the use of
his hands, however. and the bills as
certified by Councils clerks will be
taken to his Glenside home by Joseph c.
Smith, his brother and secretary.
One of the most important measures
he will be called to approve provides
S244,000 for old deficiency bills incurred
during the years 1916, 1917 and 1918
These will be paid promptly following
the afflXing of the Mayors signature to
the bill.
Other measures that will be put up
to the Mayor either today or tomorrow
provide additional funds for the COM
pletion of the piers at the foot of Porter
and Wolf streets; plotting streets in the
southern section of the city between Sew
enth and Thirteenth and johnson
streets and oregon avenue. where the
Federal Housing Corporation is erecting
$50 houses: 100000 loan funds for the
Municipal Court building to be erected
along the Parkway; petitioning the Or
phans' Court to be allowed to sell the
John G. Johnson residence at $40 South
Broad street and paying a number of
contracts on which money is now due.

VOTE ON BOLAND BILL
Fraternal Order Interested in
Measure to Compel Legal Ad-

The vote on the Boland bill. requiring
legal advertisements to be printed only
in English-lanGuage publications, will be
watched by the Patriotic Order Sons OF
America when the bill comes up for re-
consideration in the House at Harris
burg next Monday
The bill failed 10 pass final reading
Tuesday when forty members of the
House refused to vote. The result
showed 100 members for the bill and
sixty-seven against it. AS 104 votes
we're needed to pass the measure it
failed.
Charles Brumm Helm, state secretary
OF the P. o. s. Of A., declares that every
vote on the bill next Monday will be
scrutinizcd.
THE vote on the bill by Names" he
said, will be sent TO every member of
the P. O. S. of A. in the state. The
members of the House who lodged vot-
ing on the bill when II came up orig
inally are more to be blamed for its
failure to pass than those who fear
lessly took stand on the matter.
Many Philadelphia members excused
themselves with the statement that their
districts are part foreign. This is an
unwarranted evasion because we do not
allow foreign born to vote until they
have become citizens, and then they are
Americans"

Harry A. Mackey, chairman of the

CAPTAIN HALLS ADDRESS.
American Aviator In World War Tell,
Of Experiences.


Before the members and guests OF
the Twentieth Century Club, at the
home of Senator and Mrs. Wallace II.
Arney, lilo West Main street, Wedncs-
day night, Capt. James Norman Hall.
who gained fame as an aviator with
the French and American armies dur
ing the world war, told OF his expert
ences and those Of others Of which he
had first hand knowledge.
II was after . o'clock before Captain
Hall reached the Arney home. as he
arrived In the city from Minneapolis
on a belated train, but the audience
felt we'll repaid for the long walt. so
interesting were the detailed accounts
OF flying experiences as given by the
aviator. Captain Hall styled his talk
The Romance of Flying but he con-
fessed that he had wandered some
what from his subject, and that all OF
his subject matter could not be classi-
fled as romance.
Those in the audiehce gained a very
comprehensive idea Of The flying game
after listening to Captain Halls recital
Of the experiences Of flyers. and their
feelings of fear as novices, fear that
came to all. He attributed the loss OF
life among aYiators to lack OF expert
ence. and said that most Of the cas-
ualties in the air came during the first
few weeks Of combat flying.
To the Germans, altho claiming that
he held no brief for them. Captain Hall
paid tribute to their chivalry' as air
men. They were just young fellows,
like u.s." he said. and declared that,
following his capture back Of the Ger
man lines. injured and with his plane
wrecked, he was given the same con-
sideration that he would expect Ameri-
can. French or British to show their
captives. He was treated civilly. and
with the respect due him and his rank.
The captain also told Of the wonderful
work Of the Red Cross in furnishing
supplies to the captured men, and what
those supplies meant to the prisoners.
In fact, he said he still was using some
Of the Red Cross articles sent him
while he was IN German prison camps.
Captain Hall went today to Colfax,
where he will remain for a brief visit
with his parents. While In the city he
was the guest Of Mr.. and Mrs. C. ID.
Mulcahy, formerly of Colfax.
Following the captains address light
refreshments we're served.

Developments today IN the investi-
cation of the theft Of diamonds from
] the w. NJ Hodges jewelry store were
that five or six small unset stones, val
ued approximately at 800 each, were
taken in addition to the two large
stones. valued at more than $500, and
that the thief probably had visited the
Hellberg store earlier in the morning
but had been baffled and came away
empty handed.
| Hodges today said that the entire
contents of paper OF unmounted
stones was missing. including the two
| large diamonds previously reported
and the five or six smaller stones.
Thief Visited heliberg's.
Hjalmar V. Hellberg, OF the HellberE
store, said that a stranger, closely an
swering the description of the diamond
thief, had visited the store at S:45
o'clock Tuesday morning and had
asked to see diamonds. A tray Of
mounted diamonds was shown and
four set rings, valued at sl,400, $3.50.
$3.50 and 1865 were examined by the
would be customer. The four rings
were handled by the stranger, who kept
the higher priced stones out Of the
case.
After this inspection he asked to see
unset stones, saying he desired spe-
cial mounting. He was told the best
diamonds in the house were to be
found in the tray and any stone could

few minutes.
Persists in Seeing Stones.
The man persisted. however. that he
desired to see the loose stones, but
Hellberg, whose suspicious were some
what aroused. insisted he was show
ing him the best diamonds he had and
that he would take any stone selected
from its setting and put It in a new
mounting.
The man remained in the store about
ten minutes, but found no opportunity
to slip any Of the diamonds from the
display case. Saying he would call in
the evening to make a, selection he left
the store.
No Trace Of Robber.
Today the police had no clue which
might be expected to lead to the iden-
tity of the robber or the recovery of
the diamonds. 1t is believed that the
diamonds taken from the Hodges store
were slipped to a confederate on the
outside when the thief left the store.
W. F. Innes. manager Of the Joseph
Jewelry Company store, believes the
man to have visited his place Of bust
ness before going to the Hodges store,
but Hodges, basing his belief on the
time he visited the two places. still
thinks his store was robbed before the
thief visited the Joseph store.
