NEARLY READY
TO CELEBRATE
New Cumberland on Edge For
Coming Welcome to
Soldiers

Plans are rapidly materializing in
lands big welcome home celebration
next Saturday. So as to make the
affair the best possible, the general
committee has issued request ask
ng that every home in the town and
suburb display the national colors
and follow out some scheme of dec
Grafton. The statement from the
service mems committee in charge
of plans for hte day is that all is
rounding into readiness for the big
time. Decision has been reached
as to the proper method to be en-
ployed in recognizing the soldier dead
in line of parade. Attention is again
called to the fact that the towns
service men will meet in front of
the New Cumberland National Bank
at l2.45 p. m. of the day of the
celebration. A personal appeal has
gone out to every soldier and sailor
on the towns honor roll, urging
them to be present in Uniform in
the parade.
Among the many organizations
planning for the day, the Citizens
Hose Company is probably foremost.
Harry Hummel has been chosen as
their marshal. They have already
placed four huge pillars to the front
of the fire house about which will
be erected a handsome welcome
, home arch.
The decorative committee which
; has the general decoration for the
town in charge became quite active
last evening in starting to put up
many of the decorations which have
been purchased for the occasion.
Some weeks ago the town, by vol
untary contribution, raised $1,000 to
be used in putting this celebration
over the top" AS the time ap-
proaches for the occasion there is
every evidence that the money is
being wisely and judiciously spent.
Excepting the parade, the big
drawing card will be the baseball
game between the Klein Chocolate
Co. and Williamspo"t., Many fans
made it point to see the Klein
people play against Cincinnati on
the island last Friday. Since seeing
their keen playing in that game
there is no doubt that there will be
big crowd present at the game in
New Cumberland on Saturday. 1t
will also be remembered that this
game is to be the deciding one of

HOPE FOR ACTION
ON NEW HOSPITAL
Wish Expressed That City
and County Will Get To-
gether Soon

Before the conference OF the State
Health officials, the directors of the
Chamber of Commerce, the city and
county commissioners and the city and
county solicitors dispersed at the Har-
risburg Club yesterday. William Jen-
nings, who presided. expressed the
hope that the city and county offic-
ials would determine the question OF
the contagious disease hospital in the
near future. . Thomas w. Jackson
assistant to Health Commissioner
Martin, outlined in a practical ad-
dress the necessity for such a hospital
and indicated the desire of the health
authorities of the State to make Har-
risburg an ideal community from the
health standpoint. He discussed in a
brief way the character of the build
ing required. it's location. the neces-
sary capacity, the class of cases to be
taken in and other details.
Colonel John l.. Mclean, deputy
commissioner of health, still further
emphasized the making of Harrisburg
model city in provisions for the
health of the people as an example
for the rest of the State.
Charles A. Emerson, Jr., chief en-
gineer. of the State Health Depart
ment. submitted a plan and design for
the contemplated hospital here and
pointed out that it could be erected
in units and wings added as needed
in the future. His plan provides for
freproof building and a site near
the Almshouse is believed to be ideal
for the purpose.
County Commissioner Wells pledged
the support of the Board of County
Commissioners in any plan of coop
Grafton which might be adopted and
there was a general feeling through
out the conference that Il definite de-
cision would be reached in the near
future.
The report submitted at the confer
Cnce suggests adequate provision
should be made for private cases,
where patients may be treated by
their own physicians, who should be
required, of course. to comply with
all rules and regulations of the in
stitution. This would be a source of
revenue and an aid to maintenance
and would serve to prevent the use
of the Objectionable term "almshouse
hospital"
The blueprint plan submitted is for
a 200-bed hospital and the estimated
cost 100000 is for a hospital of that
size. 1t is believed, however, that a
smaller institution, for say 100 pa
tients would serve the present pur-
pose of Harrisburg and Dauphin coun-
ty, and that one wing of the hospital
as planned, extending to, but not in
Guiding the central portion of the
building, could be omitted for the
present and added later as the neces-
sity for more rooms arises. 1t is es-
timated that this omission would re-
duce the cost of construction by at
least one-third of the estimated
amount.

Grocers Lay Blame on
Farmers For High Costs

Philadelphia, Sept. 3. - Philadel-
phia wholesale grocers, at a meeting
yesterday to discuss the high cost
of living, asserted that farmers or
ganizations are one OF the chief
causes of high food prices.
Through the action of Congress in
exempting them from antitrust laws,
it was said, these organizations have
assumed the proportions of trusts of
the worst sort and fix prices arbi-
trarily. AS an example of what they
said farmers organizations are do
ing, the California association of
raisin growers, that has boosted the
producers price of raisins Is cents
a pound, was cited.

ment of a committee of nine persons
to go to Washington and assist the
Federal Government in running
down profteers. The committee is
empowered to spend all the money
necessary in order to accomplish re-
