"Brest is not fit for cattle to live in"
Many of the soldiers there are

adding that he would recommend to

soon as possible and that every care
be given them when they return.
Not Enough Ships
There are too many men and too
few ships" at the debarkation camp.

that "despondenoy and homesick-

ed, Ito cope with the many difficult

WEEK OF MAY 5
SET FOR HEARING
PARK APPEALS
Disposition TO Be Made of
HardscrabbIe Cases Early
in the Spring

With the approval of the court
after City Solicitor John +. Fox and
counsel for property owners had
agreed, the week of May was fixed
to try the remaining Hardscrabble
cases in which the city claims the
right to assess benefits against prop
critics on the east side of Front
street because of the plan to re-
move the structures on the west
side.
At the last session of civil court
and for the session next week a num-
ber of these benefit cases were listed
but it was agreed to continue them
until the special session in May. IT
is likely the jurors for the Com
mon Pleas court of April IA will be
retained for the Hardscrabble trials.
Upon motion of counsel for some
of the property owners appealing
from viewers awards of damages
which resulted with street changes
at the foot of Third street and the
construction of the Second and Front
street subways, it was decided to
include probably four or more of
those cases for trial also during the
week of May 3, so that questions of
law can be argued after verdicts are
returned, and the court can then
rule on the contested points.

RAILWAY SHOPS
CUT DOWN TO A
4O-HOUR WEEK
Several Thousand Men Are
Affected by Retrenchment
on Pennsylvania Lines
MEANS FIVE DAYS A WEEK
considerable Reduction in
Payrolls Will Follow
Cut in Time

Forty-hour weeks for all shop
employees, exclusive of those working
in the engine houses, were to-day
instituted on the Philadelphia di-
vision of the Pennsylvania Railroad.
Approximately 1000 employees of the
division, most of them residing in
this city, at Lucknow, Enola and
Marysville. are affected by this rul-
/ ing.
The ruling is issued as part of the
general retrenchment policy of the
Pennsylvania Railroad now in oper-
alton. Shop employees. exclusive of
those doing engine house duty, of all
of the transportation company's
/ lines east of Pittsburgh, are affect
ed by this ruling.
The new order reduces the amount
of time worked by these 1000 shop
men from six to five eight-hour days,
|and will produce a proportional re-
Iduction i'm the wages of the men.
This plan has been decided on as
preferable to a reduction in the
humber of employees at such a time
when considerable surplus of labor
|already exists.
With the reduction in the amount
Of freight shipped over the rail-
roads,, the wear and tear on the
|rolling stock has been considerably
|lessened. In consequence, a reduc-
|tion in the number of shop en-
|ployes will not work to the dsad-
vantage of the railroad and its
stock.

Paris, Feb. 17.-Attention of the
delegates to the Peace Conference
VIII focus on Russia to-day, the Su-
preme Council having decided that,
as the time allowed for acceptance
of the invitation to the Prinkipo con-
terence has expired, something else
must be done.
Suggests Invitation Be Renewed
Winston Spencer Churchill, of
Great Britain, has proposed that the
invitation be renewed and that some
OF the conditions that made the first
invitation unacceptable to most of
the different Russian factions be
omitted. If the Supreme Council ac-
cepts this proposition, as seems pos
slDle, 1t probably will not insist that
the conference be held at Prinkipo
Island. Instead of a general meeting
OF the Representatives of Russian
factions, direct negotiations may be
lnltlated, as commissions may be
appointed to get into touch with the
opposing elements there.
1t is scarcely expected that special
commissions of the Peace Confer
ence which are studying questions
confined to them will be able to sub
init reports to the full conference
this week, but it is hoped that some
of these reports will he ready for
revision by the Supreme Council.

FAIR INCREASE
in BUILDING
IS REPORTED
City Ranks With State Lead
ers in New Work Begun
by Contractors

Harrisburg, Allentown and Erie
, are the first of the third class cities
of Pennsylvania to show fair in
creases in building operations dur
ing the first month of this year as
compared with figures for January,
1918, according to a building rec
| ord compiled by the American Con-
tractor.
While other cities of similar size
in the state show big percentage tn
creases in building operations the
total value of the structures started
last month ranges below $4,000.
in Harrisburg during January
| there were thirteen permits issued
for work costing $4,000, as com
/ pared with eight in 1918, for $17,-
450. In Allentown last month nine
permits were issued for. structures
costing $43.345, and in Erie there
were siXty-three permits for work
to cost $f17,O34. Scranton, Wilkes
Barre. and Reading have records far
below these for the first month of
the new year.
Situation Reviewed
Significant facts are given in the
review of conditions by the Amer
lean Contractor which says in part;
The total value of building permits
Tor January, 1919, as officially re-
ported from 1872 of the principal
cities of the United States is S23,-
oo9,ZIo. AS compared with previous
years the total value shows a de-
cline of IL per cent. for the same
cities from January, 1918, and a
decline of over so per cent. for
ABOUT two-thirds as many cities re-
porting in 1917 and 1916. Com
pared with normal years before the
war one-half as many cities reported
nearly twice aS much building i'm
January. To these facts should be
ADDED the consideration that at pres
ent prices, total values represent
only from one-half to two-thirds the
same amount of building as before
The war. If all of these factors
are given due weight, it NAV be
safely assumed that actual build
ing during January, 1919, is only
about one-quarter normal
AGAIN, comparative analysis of
the total value and the total num-
Der OF permits granted in January
shows a decided change in the char
acter of construction. From an
average value of about $4,000 in
January, 1916, and 1917, the ave-
rage value of permits in January
1919, declined to about $1,7OO. 1t
is evident that for the greater part
construction is still confined to COM
paratively small projects.
There is some announcements
however, in the fact that building
during January showed an improve
ment over December. Usually the
reverse is true. The gain is only
a small one, but anything which may
De taken as an indication. of improve
ment cannot be wholly disregarded
in these times"
Contractors and realty men in
Harrisburg are anticipating that this
will establish a good record during
the spring months for new opera
ttons. Already number of per-
mits for dwellings have been issued
this month, and the usual amount
of remodeling has been started.
