the state papers seem to take the
resolutions passed by the Press

pretty seriously. They should not
forget that the boys on the Reso-

bunch and the rest of the herd
were willing to let go through
without question anything they
put their O. K. on without punch
ing any holes in it.

Immediately made application for

world, except the dictates of Fash

barefoot during the summer; and
in Florida they might go bare
foot the whole year round. If
the idea were put into general
practice, the price Of mems shoes

MAJOR SMITH IS
ENTERTAINED ON
HIS RETIREMENT
Marsh Run Government Depot
Has Grown to Great
Proportions

Major Harvey b. Smith, of Min
neapolis, who is depot officer at the
big quarrermaster cantonment near
New Cumberland, will soon retire
from the service and was given a
dinner by the members of his staff
at the Penn Harris last night Ma
jor Smith has made many friends
among the people of this section
who will regret his departure. Yes
terday afternoon he and his staff
conducted number of prominent
Harrisburg men over the big plant
and explained the growth of the
army service depot which is likely
to become an important factor in
the development of the new Amer
lean army. 1t seems to be generally
understood that the character of the
buildings and the general accessi-
bility of the plant assures its reten-
ton for the uses of the army in the
east. The New Cumberland depot is
one of three, the other two being
located at Columbus, Ohio, and
Schenectady. New York.
These projects were intended as
points of accumulation and ship
ment for army supplies of all de-
scriptions to the army in France, all
being located within twelve hours
of the principal ports of embarka-
ton. The completion and organi-
zation of these reserve depots and
the signing of the armistice occur
ring on practically the same date,
the functions of reserve depots, as
consequence, have materially
changed. being now used primarily
as points for permanent storage,
classification, reclamation and even

Among the interesting objects the
committee was permitted to see was
q shipment of the famed one-man
tanks. or whippets. built upon the

bodies. turrets and businesslike ar
mament, with the marks of expert
mental small arms attacks plainly
visible brings one phase of the war
very clearly to the onlooker.
The people of Harrisburg can have
only faint conception of the enor-
nous proportions of the plant at
New Cumberland. 1t has grown up
almost In a night and demonstrates
with what tremendous energy the
American army was getting into full
swing when hostilities ceased. Much
of the material was already on the
docks ready for shipment to Cen
eral Pershing and there are said to
be $4,000 carloads of material still
enroute to the Atlantic seaboard.
Much of this will find lodgment at
the New Cumberland depot. There
is still space for 10000 more car
loads at this point.

SURPLUS SHOWN
|NRA|l REPORT
Net Gain Of 100000 In
+ stead of Shortage,

WASHINGTON, Sept 3.-For the
first time in many months, govern
ment operation of the railroads in
July showed a surplus instead OF a
deficit.
Director General Hines announces
that preliminary figures of the
months business Indicated net opcr-
sting income, of T70O,000. After
allowing one-,weli,h Of the annual
rental due the railroad companies, the
net gain is about S20O0000, as com
psred with q deficit OF Sl20jl 600 the
preceding month, and S6s,0Wm in
February. the largest. deficit OF the
year. The net loss TO the government
isr seven months is $D0.nS,N7.
In calculating the surplus, ho~ever,
no account was taken OF the wage in
crease offered the shopmen and which
has not yet been accepted by them. II
has been estimated that the four cents
an hour advance would amount "a
about A5.0o000 a year, and as IT IS
retroactive. nc surplus for July may
become a deficit OF approximately he
same amount
