Red Cross to Stop Work
on Garments For Soldiers

The Harrisburg chapter, Ameri-
ean Red Cross, was to-day ordered
to discontinue repairing soldiers
garments as soon as the present
quota is completed. In announcing
the discontinuance of this activity,
Mrs. II. b. Dresser, secretary of the
bureau of Chapter Production of the
Pennsylvania : Delaware Division,
mentions the work of the Harris
burg chapter as among the best in
the division. She quotes a letter
from national headquarters in re-
gard to the work as follows:
At the time that the salvage Divi-
sion of the Quartermaster's Depart
ment decided to ask the Red Cross
TO help them with this work, it was
contrary to the judgment of the
many depot quartermasters who
said it was a kind of work which
should be done by skilled labor. In
many parts of the country also the
chapter workers were rather loath
to undertake it because it was such
a radical departure from the type
of work which they had been doing
and a kind of work which did not
seem particularly adapted to Red
Cross work rooms
The results obtained, however.
have been extremely satisfactory.
The work done was of material as
sistance in helping to provide cloth
ing for the men at a time when the
quartermaster's department was un-
der great pressure because of the
rapidity with which the size of our
army was increasing. While this type
OF work has not made so great an
appeal to our chapter workers as
have other types OF work, it has
nevertheless been cheerfuily and en-
Enthusiastically done and depot quar-
termasters who originally doubted
the ability OF the Red Cross to do
this work soon became hearty en-
dorsers of having the Red Cross do
it The salvage division of the quar-
ternaster's department has advised
us that from all parts of the coun-
try its representatives have report
ed that the work done by the Red
Cross chapters has been at least
equal to commercial work and of
great assistance in the solution of
many of their local problems"

By Assoeisfsd Press

Paris, jan 21.-Germany, Austria,
Bulgaria and Turkey cannot be ad-
mitted to the league of nations at
the present time. but they should
be allowed to Join as soon as the
league Is satisfied that they are en-
titled to be ranked among the trust
worthy nations OF the world.
This is the opinion expressed by
Lord Robert Cecil, who has just
turned over to the printer the Brit
ish plan for the league OF nations
which will be submitted to the
Peace Congress
Lord Robert made this statement
to the Associated Press last night:
The league should be all en-
bracing-for all trustworthy nations,
since it is for the good of human
ity."
Asked for definition Of '-trust-
worthy" Lord Robert replied that
in the case of Germany one criterion
would be in the establishment of a
government free from military
dominance. This would be a guar
antee of trustworthiness. 1t was
obvious, he pointed out, that Ger
many could not be admitted until
she had brought order out of the
present chaos and the complexion
of the new government was seen

GREAT GATHERING OF METHO-
DISTS AT SPOKANE FEB. 20
The Initial Movement Towards Raising
That Hundred Million Dollar
Fund

Methodism all over Eastern Oregon,
Eastern Washington and Northern
Idaho, as we'll as members of most of
the other denominations, are vitality
interested in the Spokane world pro-
gram conference, which will open its
two-day session in Spokane Feb. 26.
The pastor and two or more lay
delegates from every Methodist
church in the entire district covered
by the conference are expected to at
tend the conference, which will be the
official Inauguration of the S100,000,-
900 Methodist centenary program.
All churches are being urged to pay
the expenses of their pastors to the
conference, and while in Spokane the
pastors and their wives will be the
guests of the entertainment commit
tee of the conferences.
The world program conference is
declared to be the most important and
constructive convention ever held in
the northwest.
Twelve to fifteen of the greatest
speakers and nationwide leaders in
Methodism will be at the conference.
The Methodist centenary program
marks the beginning of the after-the-
war reconstruction plan of the Meth
odist church, while at the same time
the raising of the gigantic centenary
fund as a celebration of the hundredth
anniversary of the establishment of
Christian missions in America.
"The centenary is the beginning OF
a great religious renaissance, which
so many peope have anticipated as
consequence of the world war" declare
leaders in the movement.
"The centenary movement, the
greatest religious effort ever made,
will have the spirit of the American
revival and something of the fervor
of the Crusades."

FRUITGROWERS PREDICT 81
FOR BETTER GRADES APPLES
Dealers Say Fruit Will Reach New
High Level-sOO0 Carloads Shipt
From Valley

Apples are now going forward from
the valley at the rate of 18 to 20 car
loads daily. Last Saturday night a
total of 1907 cars had been shipped
and by the close of this week should
reach the 5000 mark.
Wholesalers in large receiving CEN
ters have endeavored to set limit on
the price of extra fancy Winesaps, but
without success. Sometime ago it was
stated that the price here would never
go above So. Then it was predicted
that basis of $3.50 represented the
extreme limit, but now these same
authorities say that $4.00 will be the
outside at shipping points.
The limited supply and the long
season before new apples will be on
the market make it difficult to control
the price, so predictions are running
wild as to future values of this much
desired fruit.
