Philadelphia Situation
Is Not Yet Composed

Capitol Hill was discussing to-day
with considerable interest the Phila-
qelphia situation. in view of Senator
Penrose's declaration last night that
there would be no deal" or Compro-
mise with the Wares on charter re-
vision or the mayoralty.
Linked UP with this was the state
ment that bill for the metropolitan
police force to take care of Philadel-
phia and its suburbs was to appear,
and that it would replace the John +.
*. Scott legislation and take police
men and tiremen out OF politics. The
name of Colonel John {. Groome.
head of the state police department.
who Is On leave of absence of Army
service, would organize and direct the
force. This would confirm reports
that the Colonel was going to retire
as head of the State Police force and
that new officials would be named 10
organize II under the terms of the
Powell bills for a new troop and to
create the. bureau of fire protection
and records.
Another interesting report was that
the opponents of the bill to repeal the
non partisan feature of the third class
city election laws We're demanding a
hearing. This bill does not have much
chance since Senator Penrose said that
he opposed any changes in election
laws. The hearing. however. will
likely take place during the coming
week.

Clergymen to Plan For
Victory Loan at Luncheon

One of the most unique meetings
held in the interest of any of the
Liberty Loans is that scheduled for
Monday at 1880 at the Pen Harris
Hotel when every clergyman in
Dauphin, Perry and Juniata counties
will be guests at luncheon to be
given by Donald Mccormick and
Flavel Wright, members of the Vic
tory Liberty Loan committee for
this district.
1T may be-" said Mr.. Wright this
morning, that we have overlooked
some few clergymen in the three
counties. If so we wish they would
get into touch Immediately with Mr..
Mccormick or myself"
Only eight laymen have been in
vited to the meeting. One of these
is Governor Sproul, and the Gov
ernor has said that if it is "in the
wood" he will certainly be present.
The clergymen are going to talk
Victory Liberty Loan matters: and
inasmuch as it will be the first time
for a number of years that they
have all got together some other
matters of importance may be taken
up.

GERMANS WANT
DETAILS ABOUT
HALLER'S ARMY
Allied Demand For Passage
of Poles Through Dam
zig Frowned Upon

Berlin, March 29.-General Nu-
dant. representing Marshal Foch.' on
Wednesday submitted note to the
German government demanding n pass
age through Lanzig for the Polish divi-
sions under General Haller, which are
part of the allied army, and permis-
sion for their further march to Poland
TO maintain order. The note added that
any refusal would be regarded as a
breach of the armistice.
The German government, after ex-
haustive deliberations by the party
leaders, laid down its standpoint in a
note of reply which asserts that. accord
ing to the armistice treaty, 1t was only
obliged TO grant the allies free access
to the Vistula to maintain order in
territories of the former Russian empire.
In concluding the treaty, the govern
ment declares, 1t proceeded in any case
from the standpoint that there could
be no question of Polish troops.
Refers to Padercwski
The note then refers to incidents dur
ing the journey of Ignace Jan Pader-
ewslli, the Polish premier, who grossly
violating the hospitality accorded him
on German soil. gave the signal for re-
volt and civil war and who, when he
was III l'dILle III ljeCeIIlDeT, lJl, Sdlu .
If the Polish divisions from France and
Italy should be in Danzig. then Danzig

Proceeding. the note refers to nu-
merous demonstrations by the German
majority in West Prussia who wish to
resist Polish attacks by force. and says
that by such civil warfare the German
eastern front against Russian Bolshev-
ism will be endangered
In conclusion the communication asks
for information as to the composition
and strength of General Haller's army.
the date of it's landing and transit of
Poland. and what guarantees the allies
can offer that General Haller's army, or
n portion of it. will not participate in
Polish demonstrations or a possible in
surrection of the Polish minority.
Paper Fears Outcome
The Lokal AnZeiger thinks that Sc
rous situation has arisen through the
exchange of notes between General
Nudant and the German government
While it does not abandon hope that
General Nudant will accept the German
reply as concession the newspaper
fears that his note has no other aim
than to deliver Danzig to the Poles. and
counsels the government not to yield
an inch.
The zeitung Am Mittag accuses the
Entente statesmen of having had their
brains added by the occurrences in
Hungary.

Gale of 80 Miles an Hour
Will Abate This Evening,
When Mercury Will Go Up

A fierce gale, blowing between
twenty-five and thirty miles an
hour, continued to play havoc
throughout the city to-day. The
wind will die down tonight and
warmer weather will come to-mor-
row, Forecaster Domain says.
A portion of the tin roof of the
State Printery building. at Tenth
and Mulberry streets, was blown off,
roofs were torn from smaller out
buildings, a large tree is down at
Sixteenth and Berryhill streets and
branches are strewn over all COM
munities with shade trees.
This morning the strong winds
blew in a big eight by ten feet plate
glass window at the Crystal res
taurant. A number of additional
wires of the Harrisburg Light and
Power Company were torn down.
This company especially suffered,
wires and poles being blown down
in many sections of the city. For a
time last evening, four light cir
cults, supplying more than one-half
of the residentiaf district, were out
of service. Linemen were and are
being kept busy in their repair
work.
Eight poles were blown over the
Valley Railways tracks at Church
town, delaying traffic considerably.

AIR SERVICE
FOR ENGLAND
IS PLANNED
Fifteen War Planes Will
Carry Both Freight and
Passengers

London, March 29.-Just as soon
as aircraft regulations have been de-
finitely arranged by the peace con-
ference. an airplane passenger and
freight service will be inaugurated
between the principal cities of Eng
land and the continent, it is an
nounced. 1t will be an experiment
only insofar as the whims of the
public are concerned, as the fifteen
machines to be used all saw more
trying service in night bombing
work during the latter months or
the war.
There is no doubt in the minds
of the promoters that the project
will be popular at first among those
who enjoy adventure and are not
hampered by lack of funds but, in
making the announcement of the
new service, F. Handley Page said
that his company wanted to put the
service purely on a business basis
and that charges would not be out
of reach of the average merchant
who might want goods transported
quickly or make quick trips in Eu-
rope.
Announcement of the plans was
made simultaneously with the HrSt
public exhibition of a passenger
carrying airplane in London. The
plane is one of the night bombers
with the fuselage equipped TO ac-
commodate seventeen passengers.
1t saw service over German cities
but appeared much different on eX-
hibition. Huge glass windows had
been cut into the sides of the fuse
lage showing the saloon fitted with
heavily upholstered leather chairs
lined on each side of the carriage
with a narrow isle between. Space
is provided for sixteen passengers
inside. The seventeenth one sits
outside in the very bow of the
machine in the seat formerly occu-
pied by a gunner.

LOOSE STANDARD
RESPONSIBLE FOR
DISEASE SPREAD
State Health Department to
Wage Campaign Against
RavageS of Illness

Insidious diseases caused by loose
living standards are to be stamped
out in Pennsylvania, according to
plans for campaign to be waged by
the State Health Department, an
nounced in an address before the
Harrisburg Academy of Medicine by
Major S. Leon Cans. recently re-
turned from organization service in
the United States Army, and now
director of the genito-urinary di-
vision of the State Health Depart
ment.
1t is planned. said Major Cans, to
establish stations in various parts of
the State to fight these diseases.
Two camps will be established some
where in the State where members
of the Health Department and
nurses will be educated as to sani-
tation and other phases of disease
combat. The camps are to continue
for two weeks, and Major Cans
said as far as he knew they are
the first of their kind to be estab-
lished anywhere.
The question of handling these
diseases is not only a health meas
ure but an economic measure as
well, he said. IF we can elimi-
nate a certain disease from Penn
sylvania we would need but one in
sane asylum in the State"
Controlled in Army
To illustrate the peril of these dis
eases Major Cans set forth that
eighty-fve per cent. of the civilians
coming into a certain camp were in
fected. When they were under con-
troll, the total dropped to fifteen
per cent.
He called on the people of the
State to back the campaign. This
State was first in the medical re-
serve work. Now we want her to
be first in this campaign. Pennsyl-
vania's not afraid to do anything
when she knows it's right"
Many drastic measures are to be
taken to stamp out the disease, he
explained. A prophylactic station
will be opened in Pittsburgh April
/. Other stations are to be estab-
lished throughout the State. Also
200 signs in frames will be hung
in certain public places, warning the
people about the perils of loose
moral standards. The citizens are to
be educated up to better standards
of living and every effort is to be
made by the State officials to COM
pletely check the raVages of the
dreade diseases.
Following Major Cans address,
doctors present took part in a dis
Cussion of the program he set forth.
DIR. H. r. Douglas, president of the
Academy of Medicine, presided.

SAYS KARLUCK
WAS EQUIPPED
FOR ARCTIC TRIP
Captain Pedersen Denies Yes.
sci Was Responsible For
Loss of Life

san Francisco, March 29.-While
making ready the steamer Her
man." on which he will sail for the
Arctic on April 2, Captain c. T. Pc
dersen met Vilhjalmar Stefansson,
the explorer, here yesterday for the
first time since 1912 when Petersen
was engaged by Stefansson to navi-
gate the Inflated steamer Karluk
before the command was turned
over to Captain Robert A. Bart
lett.
With the meeting was cleared a
misunderstanding of which, it
proves, Captain Pedersen was the
innocent and unsuspecting author
and the explorer the victim as the
result of an interview aScribed to
Petersen in which Stefansson was
made to appear responsible for the
loss of the karluk.
Denies Alleged Statement
Since the destruction of the Kar-
lux in the ice in 1914 when eleven
members of her crew of twenty five
men perished," said Mr.. Stefansson,
Il have been held more or less re-
sponsible for their deaths, especially
among the friends and relatives of
those who were lost. Among the
criticisms has been one to the effect
that the Karluk was unsuited for
the work called for. Among those
who recommended the Karluk and
on whose judgment l relied in the
purchase of the vessel was Captain
Petersen
- 1t was with surprise, to say the
least. that l read, a short time after
the disaster, an interview in which
Captain Petersen was quoted as say
ing that had he been in command of
the karluk he would have handled
the ship exactly as had been done by
Bartlett. After the lapse of six
years l met Captain Petersen to-
day to find that he never had made
any such statement.
Steamed Out Into Pack
Captain Petersen, who for the last
twenty-four years has been making
an annual trip to the Actic, is rated
among the most competent of the
Pacific ice navigators. In speak
ing of the loss of the Karluk, he
said to-day:
mo ship that I know of was bet
ter suited than the Karluk for the
work in hand. In Pacific Arctic
navigation, the safe method is to
keep ones vessel between the ice
and the shore. l am told the Kar-
LUX, instead of remaining in the shell
ter of the heavy shore ice, steamed
twenty miles out into the pack,
which in my opinion was suicidal,
where she was hemmed in.
ITO ascribe any of the blame for
the loss of the Karluk therefore to
Mr.. Stefansson would be most un-
just"
