CLERK OF BANK
DASHING SPENDER
Meteoric Career of North
Penn's Paying Teller Barred
by Inquisitors

Philadelphia, Aug. 1. - Lavish
gifts of jewels to his wives, reckless
use of three automobiles, care free
purchase for cash of a ten thousand
purchase for cash of a ten thousand
dollar home in Cynwyd, have marked
the past five years of the life of
Elwood H. Strang, the $125-a- month
paying teller of the North Penn
Bank, according to facts brought to
light yesterday by Investigators.
Detectives from the District At
torney's office have gone to Atlantic
City to invite Strang to return to
Philadelphia to throw some light on
his extraordinary activities here, and
on the muddled affairs of the bank.
Known under three names, and
welded under two, the young man
spent money with a recklessness that
attracted attention.
AS Elwood II. Strang he met and
married within five weeks, Miss
Catherine Dewald. He then had
three automobiles.
AS ]. E. Caldwell, five weeks after
he had been divorced by the first
Mrs. Strang on the grounds of deser-
ton and cruel and barbarous treat
ment, he married Miss Julia Grab
and installed her in a $4,000 home
at LatcheS lane, in Cynwyd. And
he paid cash for the home.
Under the name of Foster he was
also known to other women. AT
the North Penn Bank he answered
the telephone either as Caldwell or
Strang. And his salary was $125 a
month.
Interest centers on Strang, owing
to the fact that a subpoena server
could not find him to serve a sum-
mons to appear as a witness at the
further hearing of Ralph L. Meyer
the cashier of the wrecked institu-
ton, on Tuesday.
Attention was directed toward the
dashing twenty -nine-year-o pay
ing teller, who, investigators learned
yesterday, cut a wide swath in the
gay districts of New York, Philadel-
phia and Atlantic City, as a conse-
quence of statements made at thai
| hearing by Walter O. Colflesh
Walter Colflesh, the clerk who de-
scribes himself as a boob" and who
was designated by Fred Taylor
Pusey, the special Assistant Attorney
General appointed by Governor
Sproul, as a ''squealer," was further
revealed to have automobiles. g
summer home at a seashort resort
and to have been receiving $50 q
week from an automobile company
which has overdrafts in the neigh.
borhood of $4,000 at the bank.

CONGRESS URGES
ARMY TRAINING
Bills in Both Branches Subject
u. S. Youths to Six Months
Service in Army or Navy

Washington, August IA sweep
ing and comprehensive system of
universal military training to be CO.
ordinated with the after-the-war
military program was submitted to
both houses of Congress late yes
terday.
In the Senate Senator Chamberlain,
ranking Democratic member of the
military affairs committee, and in
the House, Chairman Julius Kahn.
of the military committee. introduced
bills to initiate the training system.
All youths, under the provisions of
the bills, which were prepared large
Iy by the National Training Camps
Association, must take six months
training at any time during their
eighteenth, nineteenth and twentieth
years, with the exception of those
who have served six months during
the present war or are morally or
physically unfit. Vocational training
for those with n small knowledge of
the English language is also pro-
vided.
Reserves in both the army and navy
are created by the bill. These would
be composed of all men who have
served during the war, and they
would be held in the reserve for five
wears after their discharge, provid-
ing they have not reached the age of
so by that time in addition to all
men given military training under
the bill. These would be held for
10 years.
To provide for emergencies, the
President is not only given power to
call out the reserves in case of an
emergency, but also all other persons
liable for service between the ages
of is and 45.

Colored Pythians Call
For End of Race Riot

Chester, Pa. Aug. 1. - Three
thousand Knights of Pythias, colored,
from all parts of Pennsylvania, Ia
raded yesterday in connection with the
Grand Lodge session. Most of those in
the line of parade were uniformed
knights of the military rank and made
fine appearance
At the session strong resolutions de-
ploring the race riots in Chicago and
disturbances between the whites and
blacks We're passed. The resolutions
call upon all law-abiding ciriHens to
take every means to prevent further
troubles of this kind, and the delegates
to the Grand Lodge session pledged
themselves to work to this end. They
also call attention to the part the col
ored race played in the World War
and what effort the knights are maxi
ing to uplift their race and win respect
for them by all classes. Great praise
was given the grand chancellor, Il. G..
Collier, for the work he is doing in con-
nection with the home for aged mem
bers of the order. The home is located
at Sun Set, near Pomeroy, Chester
county.

DEBATE
MAY PUT WEDGE
INTO COALITION
Parliamentary Battle on Over
Naturalization
Plan

London, Aug. 1.-Belief is held
by some political observers that the
parliamentary battle over the proposed
naturalization of mines and railways
may split the coalition government of
Great Britain.
The coal magnates are trying to
rally the mine owners to defend their
rights and the whole principle of pri-
Vate ownership of under earth deposits
is at stake.
The government has an arrangement
which Cowdray's experts are exploring
for oil and he Labor party and many
liberals propose that the government
shall deny any right of private owner
ship in oilfelds
A hundred members of the coalition
in the House of Commons have protest
ed to the prime minister against the
transport bill. This bill gives the new
minister of transport. Sir Eric Geddes,
control over highways. road transport,
railways. tramways docks, canals and
coastwise shipping. 1t is now proposed
to add electric power.
Sir Eric claims that the ministry will
have no greater authority than the
Board of Trade formerly held. Oppo-
ncnts charge that the bill makes hin
dictator with far more power than
Secretary McAdoo had in the United
States as director general of railroads.
and that his Office might make and
wreck industries and communities.
a powerful phalanX of interests is
against naturalization. These Include
the coal and electric companies. The
Westminster Gazette thinks the COM
hination will have no real weight un-
less ready with a definite alternative
policy. Many observers believe tho
"irterests" will subsde gracefully be-
fore a flood of public opinion.

$694,25O,OOO Spent but
Not One War Plane Reaches
Lines of American Army

Washington, D. c.. Aug. l. -
Failure of the aviation service to
achieve results commensurate with
the demands of the war was indi-
Gated in the testimony before the
House Committee investigating avi-
alton yesterday, at which 1t was
developed that although Congress
had appropriated 694,25O,OOO for
the service not a single combat or
heavy bombing plane had reached
the American Army in France when
the armistiCe was signed.
|. Secretary Bakers testimony was
to the effect that none of the men
appointed head of the aviation serV-
ice had had experience with avia-
ton or aviation production. John
D. Ryan, the last head of the serv-
ice,S was cited by Mr.. Baker as his
personal selection because he be-
lieved him to be IAN exceptional
business executive"
Passed Over Tried Executives
Part of the examination of the
Secretary of War concerned the ap-
pointment of Colonel E. A. Deeds
who was unknown to Mr.. Baker
prior to his appointment, although
both hailed from the same State.
Asked why General Goethals and
Wood and others of proved execu-
tive ability had been passed over
for one unknown to him, Mr.. Baker
said that General Goethals had re-
tired from the Army and entered
into the private practice of his pro
fession. When attention was called
to the fact that General Goethals
had applied to the Secretary for ac-
tive service, but had been denied
and permitted to remain idle for six
months, Secretary Baker said that
General Goethals wanted to go over
seas and that he was too old to fight.
He admitted, however, that the Cen
eral later rendered extremely ac-
tive and efficient service" after be-
ing made head of the purchase and
storage and traffic division of the
War Department. The hearings
touched upon the severe criticism
which had been leveled against
various heads of aviation.
