WOULD EXTEND

Let me urge. in the first place.
that the present food control act
should be extended both as TO the
period OF time during which il shall

ply Its provisions against hoard

10 fuel. 10 clothing, and 10 many
other commodities which are indis-
putabIy necessaries Of life. As il
stands now IL is limited in opera
ton 10 the period OF the war and
becomes imperative upon the for

should Judge that 10 was clearly

abuses that nave grown up IN the

effectively prevented There can be
no doubt Of either the necessity or
the legitimacy or such measures.

Warrant Out For Leib, Who
Is Charged With Forgery;
State Police on His Trail

A warrant was issued for William

cording to announcement made by

urer H. NJ. Kephart on a note which
he used to obtain $4,000 from a
Minersville bank. When this was dis
covered it is said kephart CAV him
three days in which to lift the note
and Leib made good.
When further charges were dis
covered. the warrant was sworn out.
Leib knew of it, according to stories
current. and secured a postponement
of the arrest in order to enter bail.
When he did not keep an appoint
ment with Deputy Attorney General

the Attorney General that Captain

service of the warrant charging forg-
cry against William S. Leib. The
warrant is in the hands of the State
Police officials, who are trying to
locate the former resident clerk OF
the House. Mr.. Leib was expected to
surrender yesterday. but did not do
so, and the officials are of the opin-
ion that he will do so to-day.

$50 Rental Due From
Trust Company Forgotten

County Controller Henry w. Cough
to-day advised the County Commits
sioners that two public service COM
Ipanies that have special privilege
concessions in the use of county
bridges and the Commonwealth
Trust Company. which has a rear en-
trance to it's Market street building,
facilitated by the passageway along
the east side of the courthouse, have
not paid rentals due the county for
several years. He urged the county
heads to send bills and collect the
money.
For using the passageway at the
side of the courthouse Cough said
the trust company is charged $50 a
year but that nothing had been paid
for at least six years. The Middle
town and Swatara Water Company
is charged s25 annually for having
its water main on the concrete
bridge over the Swatara creek, be-
tween Middletown and Royalton.
Cough said four years rental is due.
He contends that the Williams
town Gas Company owes the county
$50. representing rent for five years
for having a gas main on the bridge
spanning the Wiconisco creek in
Lykens Efforts will be made to COL
lect the bills, it was said.

for expense in this or any of the
other operations visited. The job
was done in a hurry and when finak
adjustments are made large sums
will have to be charged off as war
costs. 1t was felt by the practical
builders present that Harrisburg
could build the same type of houses
more reasonably than the govern
ment will be able to offer under
these conditions.
A Beauty Spot
Yorkship Village will be one of
the beauty spots of the United
States when completed. And when
the builders turn over the operation
to the government it will be a town
complete in every respect, from bar
ber shop to church. The whole viii
lage is laid out with the idea of
beauty and convenience combined.
The streets are designed in large
swinging curves and with the
thought of giving every resident a

Much Blame ON Emperor
The agreement on responsibilities
for the war is understood to have
been a compromise between divided
reports presented by the commission
of which Secretary Lansing is chair
man. There was a practical agree
ment on the general responsibility of
the German emperor for bringing on
the war. but division occurred on
whether it was feasible to bring him
to justice before an international
tribunal.
The French and British view favor
ed tribunal. but the American view.
it is understood, favored moral in
dictment without recourse to prose-
cution. owing to the lack of an inter-
national law as basis for trial be-
fore an international court
Belgium. on which the war fell
first and heaviest, is reported TO have
taken a view much similar 20 that of
the United States. while Japan and
Italy were partially in accord with
the American view.
Method of Procedure
1t was owing to these divergent
new plan. whereby one of the allied
nations. probably Belgium, would
initiate prosecution against the for
mer emperor and others responsible
for the breach OF treaties, the tnva-
sion of territory and the destruction
directed against this country. and
leading to a more general spread of
the war. The exact nature of the
agreement is not disclosed. but the
foregoing is believed to cover the
main lines.
The text as finally approved on
reparations specifies that the enemy
countries must admit responsibility
for all loss and damage to allied and
associated nations, and their citizens
caused by the unjustitiable aggression.
But in view of the inability of the
enemy countries fully to recompense
these losses, the clause states. an
inter-allied commission will assess
the losses on just basis for thirty
years beginning May /. 1921, with an
initial payment of $4,000. 00O. 900.
Germany is to pay the entire cost
of the commission and stan during
the thirty years of operations. The
first payment is to be credited against
Germany's obligation to pay for the
maintenance of the allied troops in
the occupied regions, and the second
priority is for the payment of food
relief furnished to Germany.
Frontiers to he InviOlable
president Wilson once proclaimed
our frontiers those of humanity it
self. They must, then, be made in
violable."
There will be no diminishment in
the intellectual productivity of
France, President Poincare declared
to-day at a service at the Sorbonne
in honor of French writers killed in
the war. The war. he added. had
brought a better understanding of
what is eternal in France and what
she represented in the world. French
writer's will preserve and develop
the intellectual influence of France.
The President eulogized the spirit OF
the young writers who had sacrificed
themselves for a great cause.
Addresses Rumania's Queen
Turning to Queen Marie of Ru-
mania, who was present, VI. Poincare
said:
The Rumanians are on the Dan
ube what the French are at Stras-
bourg. the guardians OF Latin civili-
| zation.'
