Although the inclement weather cut
down the attendance slightly from that
of previous years, the patronage at the
booths was more than at former fairs
and it is believed by those in charge
that the net receipts will outstrip those
of the events in past seasons. No fair
was held in 1913 and 1917, on account
of the coal shortage and an epidemic
in those years.

AMERICANS GET READY
TO MOVE ACROSS RHINE

Coblenz, Wednesday. May q (by
the Associated Press) Lieut. Gen
Hunter Liggett, commander of the
army of occupation, and Mai. Gen
John Hines, commander of the Third
corps, who were on their way to Lon
don, today were recalled to Coblenz
by orders from American general
headquarters.
Nine hundred motor trucks began
to move Tuesday midnight from west
of the Rhine to the bridgehead area.
The trucks are being distributed to
various points of advantage among
the troops holding the zone east of
the Rhine should the occasion arise
for the Americans to start an ad
vance
The recall of Generals Liggett and
Hines is part of the new program for
the American army in the event the
Germans do not accept the peace
treaty
The composite regiment of the
Third army, which was organized for
participation in the Empire day fes-
tivities in London, is being held in
Coblenz because of the new turn in
the peace situation.
The movement of the motor trucks
continued throughout Wednesday and
most of Wednesday night, and was the
topic of conversation among the Ger
man civilians in Coblenz. Many civil
ians complained that the trucks as
they rumbled across the Rhine bridges
at night disturbed their sleep.
The trucks. which have capacity
of from thirty to forty soldiers, are
fully equipped. The army of occu-
patton at present consists Of the
First, Second, Third, Fourth and Fifth
divisions.

TWENTY PEOPLE KILLED AND
MORE THAN HUNDRED HURT

Cedar Rapids, Iowa May 22.--A
score Of persons we're killed and a
hundred injured by an explosion at the
Douglas Starch works tonight, OF the
150 men and boys who had just gone
to work on the night shift, few es-
capped injury or death. The entire
plant was burned by resultant fire,
which was confined to the Douglas
plant. The loss is $3,000,000.
The shock was felt all over Cedar
Rapids and for miles around the coun-
try. Fire broke out and consumed
the shattered plant.
Firemen extricated dead and
wounded from the debris quickly to
avoid incineration. The injured were
rushed to hospitals and homes as
rapidly as volunteers with automobiles
could be mustered.
So severe was the explosion that
persons were thrown from chairs a
mile away. The cause of the accident
could not be determined, but is

Questing an explanation of the landing
OF Italian forces in Turkey.
Premier Orlando is said to have
made reply to the council of four
after a sharp personal incident dur
ing which he objected to the presence
of Premier Nenizelos of Greece. The
latter retired from the meeting.
The Italians landed forces at Adalia,
Budrum and Makri during the period
when Premier Orlando and Foreign
Minister Sonnino had withdrawn from

landings without notice to the allies

can be a consistent and harmonious
regulatory policy. Through this means
only can the attempts at wasteful
competition and the economic loss oc-
casioned by Implications of plant and
force be avoided 1t is believed that
this is desirab BILE and can be reached
by amending the law so as to provide,
subject to the approval of the Inter-
state Commerce commission that any

ing an interstate business may pur-
chase the property of any other tele-
graph or telephone company, or con-
solidate with any other company or

will protect the public.
should Fix Rates.
Hence. it is believed, that the law
should be so amended as to empower
the Interstate Commerce commission
to fixe rates for telegraph and tele-
phone companies subject to provisions
of the act, and that any company
whose lines are located entirely within
a state but which transacts direct in
terstate business should be made sub
ject to the act"
The commissions use of its rate
making power, the letter sald, WOULD
ensure the companies sufficient reve-
nue. to yield reasonable return on the
value of the property" and also to
give proper services.
Dealing with management prob
lens, Mr.. Burleson said the board was
convinced that "a tribunal should be
provided upon which the public the
employe, the managerial force, and
capital shall be fairly represented and
before which all parties may be heard, !,
SO that prompt redress may be had
for just grievances" Changes in wage
scales, it also was suggested, should
be reviewed by the Interstate Com
merce commission in order that rate
alterations may be made simultane-
ously with effective date Of the new
wage changes.

TELLS on THE KIDNEYS
Harrisburg People Have Found This
To BE True.

The strain of overwork tells on
weakened kidneys. The hurry and
worry of business men, the heavy
lifting and STOPPING of workmen, the
women's household cares, tend to
wear, weaken and iniure the kid
neyS until they can no longer filter
the poison from the blood and the
whole body suffers from the waste
matter that accumulates. Weak
ened kidneys need quick assistance.
Doan's Kidney Pills are prepared
especially for weakened kidneys;
tired, worn-out backs - have proven
their merit in thousands of such
cases. Convincing proof of their
worth in a Harrisburg citizens state

VIM. Wilbert, machinist, 1923 Ner-
non ST., says: Several years ago l
was in bad shape with my kidneys.
] suppose it was brought on by my
work as at that time 1 was doing
much heavy lifting. My back was so
weak l could hardly walk and when

MRS. LULU L. SHEPARD

Mrs. Lulu Loveland Shepard, who
is speaking in the city under the au-
spices of the National Reform As
sociation of Pittsburgh, in its nation
wide anti-polygamy campaign, has
been speaking to large and enthus-
astic audiences. She spoke last night
in the Fourth Reformed Church, the
Rev. Homer S. May, pastor.
Mrs. Shepard said IN part con-
cerning polygamy: "It Is the chief
cornerstone of Mormon theology. 1t
is the royal order of the Mormon so
cial system. 1t is the chief sanctity
in Mormon religious consideration.
In Mormon eyes-"celestial mar
riage' or marriage for this life and
through eternity is the only lawful
marriage and the offspring of celes-
tial marriage the only legitimate Off
spring. The preended command
from God for celestial marriage is
entitled Revelation on the eternity
of the marriage covenant, includ .ng
the plurality of wives" The polyga-
nous order is the onE order of mar
riage, even a homogeneous marriage
in the church must be solemnized at
the polygamous altar and the par
ticipants must accept the divinity of
polygamy."
Mrs. Shepard will speak tonight in
the Lutheran Church parish house,
of Humm elstown, at 7.45. She will
speak tomorrow afternoon to wom-
en- only at 3 o'clock in the Grace M
Il. Church, State street, DIR. Robert
