: Recommended to Board:

> The high school and grade teach
ers' unions dominated the meetings
held yesterday to organize the teach
ers' council authorized by the board
of education, and practically all dele
gates elected to serve on the council
are union members.
The high school teachers, white and
colored, met in the Mckinley High
and elected six delegates. instead OF
five. the number specified by the
school board. This was done on mo-
ton of the colored group, so that
there could be two colored delegates
and four whites. They will ask the
board to confirm all six.

STARTS ON TRIP
THROUGH WEST
Theodore Roosevelt Will
Boost Membership of
American Legion

New York, Aug. 25. - Theodore
Roosevelt, of New York. one of the
founders of The American Legion at
both the Paris and st. Louis eau
cuses and now a member of the
Joint National Executive Committee,

bring the Legion's enrolment of vet
Grams up to the million mark prior

When this is completed and cables
have been laid hundreds of poles
will be taken down by the telegraph
company.
In a letter to Commissioner Hass-
Ter, which he presented to Council,
City Electrician Clark z. Diehl ex-
planned his plans for installing a
better system for telephone calls for
fire apparatus. This is made pos
sible by the transfer of police head
quarters and the removal of the
fire and police alarm systems to the
Eager school building in Walnut
street.
Direct Connection
At present when a telephone call
is received at police headquarters
for fire apparatus, the desk officer
must call a company in the vicinity
of the fire to respond, using the city
telephone system. By the new ar
| rangement all the fire companies
with the exception of the Good Will,
Reilly and Camp Curtin, will be con-
nected through he underground
cable lines direct with police head
quarters by telephone. In the fu-
ture when phone call for apparatus
is received at headquarters, by
touching a button the desk officer
can communicate direct with the
company and save much time. Mem
bers of Council approved the plan,
and the new system will be in op-

Trade Commission which are satur-
ated with glaring inaccuracies and
misstatements. This would be seri-
GUS enough but the matter does not
rest there, because the bill, If
passed, will further initiate the al
ready high cost of living"
Elemental facts in the meat
business" he said, prove that the
packer profit on meat transactions
was about two cents on dollar.
THE Kenyon bill must either IN
terfere with the farmers end OF
meat production, or with the pack
ers' part of the business, If design
ed to affect the high cost of living.
If the farmer is hit he will cut down
production which will bring higher
stock prices. If the packer is hIl
and his business crippled. the re-
suit will be higher manufacturing
costs and these, too, will have to b !
passed on"
No Stores in England
Mr.. Weld paid his respects to
Commissioner Colver, Of the Trade
Commission, a previous witness re-
marking that many OF his state
ments here were exaggerated and
inaccurate" Swift & Company
owned no retail stores In England,
and Mr.. Weld said he had been
unable to find that any other Amer,
lean packer did so.
"Mr. Colver came In here and
told you gentlemen that the flve
large packers controlled over sew
enty-flVe per cent. of the business in
hides" he continued. They handle
less than fifty per- cent, and I as
sure you there Is the keenest COM
petition between all OF them.
Ignores Number of Concerns
"Mr. Colver made the fat state
ment that the packers have not put
any new capital into the business
from outside sources since 1904.
Swift & Company alone has added
S85, 100000 new cash capital from
sales of shares. Mr., Colver persist
entity ignored the number of pack
ing concerns In business in this
country. Some 235 concerns are ell
gagged in interstate business besides
the big packers, and moreover sew
eral hundred concerns do a big To-
cal and intrastate business.
IF the Kenyon bill is passed the
splendid and elaborate service given
the country at large by the big
packers will be interfered with in q.
way that will hurt everybody con-
cerned, producers, packers and con-
sumers."

MAY RETURN TO
PARISH TREATY
IS AMENDED
President Would Straighten
Out Points Raised by
Senate

WashinE tom, Aug. 25.-The possi-
bility of President Wilson's return to
Paris, to straighten out the points
raised by any Senate qualifications in
the Peace Treaty is one which some
Senator's say would be entirely in
line with his course thus far in the
peace settlement
To send an entirely new set of
peace delegates also would be admit
tedly within the Presidents power,
and in this connection Republican
Senators frequently have mentioned
Senator Hitchcocks statement that
the President laughingly suggested
Senators Lodge and Knox as possible
selections to negotiate a new treaty
should the present one be amended.
That the President might permit
the negotiations to stand in a dead
lock by declining to take up with
other governments any changes sug-
gested by the Senate involves per
ties of all.
Administration leaders repeatedly
have declared that the President
alone was charged with the negotia-
tion of treaties and that the whole
history of treaty making showed he
could halt any such negotiation at
any step he desired prior to the ex-
change of ratifications. The Senate,
these leaders have asserted, would be
absolutely powerless to interfere, its
authority under the constitution be-
ing limited to giving advice and con-
sent to the acts of the executive.
How far President Wilson may go
in his fight for unqualified Senate ac-
ceptance of the Peace Treaty is a
subject of increasing speculation in
official and diplomatic circles.
With the group of reservation Re
publicans apparently determined to
write their qualifications of the
League of Nations covenant into the
ratification itself. and with Republi-
can leaders predicting thatthe Sem
ate will amend outright the Shan
tung provision and perhaps other sec
tions of the treaty, an interesting set
of possibilities present themselves.
There has been no authoritative eX-
preston of the Presidents probable
course should the treaty be returned
to him with teXtual amendments or
reservations written into the ratitlca-
ton. He told the Foreign Relations
Committee Tuesday. however, that he
would consider either method of
qualification as tantamount to re-
opening negotiations with Germany.

ASKED
ON LIGHTS NOT
BURNING NCITY
Automobile Hits Pole and Hill
Is Without Illumination
For Several Hours

Commissioner S. F. Hassler and
City Electrician Clark E. Diehr~ to-
day urged all residents. of the city
when they notice any street lights
out at night, to report them to po-
lice headquarters. Broken globes,
or other damage to the lights caused
by any accident should be reported
also.
By cooperating with the city
much of the present trouble with
the lighting system can be remedied,
these officials said, because the Har-
risburg Light and Power Company
is notified regularly each night
about the locations of lights not
burning.
On Saturday night when an au-
tomobile ran into a pole in Shrub
street, in Allison Hill, the light was
smashed and the circuit was broken,
ton was without lights from to
o'clock. About that time light
company men located the trouble
after touring over the entire district
testing scores of lights. Within
twenty minutes the break was re-
paired. If it had been reported as
soon as the accident occurred hours
of search would have been avoided
and the section of the city would
have been lighted. The same thing
occurred in North Seventh street,
and it took hours to locate the light
which had caused the break in the
circuit.
While city patrolmen report out
RACES as soon as they see them there
are lights in the city which go out
after the officers have passed that
section and sometimes these are not
burning for almost an hour before
report is received, the officials
claim. Prompt reports of outages
by residents will be a big help in
providing better lighting, DR.. Hassler
said.

FOR DAYLIGHT

of daylight in this State. And we
further petition Congress to recon-
slider its action in repeating this
highly commendable law.
Boon For Workers
I'm herewith signing our names
to the petition we set forth these
reasons: That daylight saving is
wholly beneficial to the working
people of this city and all other
towns; that It gives them ample
time to work their home gardens i'm
the evenings; that it gives them time
Tor evening baseball games, which
Will have to be abandoned if some
arrangement cannot be made for a.
continuation of the daylight-saving
system; that it gives men time and
opportunity for evening outings with
thelr families; that it saves them an
hours electric light gas bill every
day' and that from every viewpoint
IL makes for better and cheaper liv-
ing conditions.
IN support of which we do here
unto set our hands and seals, with
the request that these petitions be
gwen the widest publicity and that
they be laid before the various or
carnations and individuals to whom
they are addressed"
Twofold Purpose
The petitions will serve a twofold
purpose. They will show Council
men and the Mayor the trend of
opinion in the city and also will en-
list the aid of employers In the
main, the employers OF consequence
are only too willing to make work.
ing conditions as pleasant as pos
slole for their men. Supporters of
the proposed ordinance believe that
IN every instance where employers
are petitioned by their men they
will end their influence to getting
favorable action.
A movement will be gotten under
way, it was said, to have n
similar campaign started in Steel
ton. The many thousand en-
ployes of the big Bethlehem Steel
Company plant at Steelton are d.
Wded between Harrisburg and
Steelton. With that progressive
borough working hand in hand with
Harrisburg, there will be no possi-
bilit yof conflict, Many of the
smaller boroughs. such as the West
Shore towns, Penbrook, Progresh,
Hummelstown, PaXtang and others,
also are said to be preparing to
take Harrisburg's lead, This will be
