Urges Women to Work.
Urging larger participation Of WON

told his women auditors at n non-par

charnpioned the league OF nations, as
a measure to protect women ana enid

From my experience in OHIO, SAID
the governor, you may know what to

There is much TO be done for human

stamp out disease, oppression. and ig-

COUNT APPOINT
 FRAMING REPLY TO PEACE TERMS

Budapest, Tuesday, Jan. 27-Count Albert Apponyi is engaged in writing 8 Hungary's answer to the terms of peace submitted at NeuiIly by the peace conference. He said today there were many clauses which were impossible of tulfIlment.
 There are 60 absurdities in the proposed treaty." he declared. "One of these takes away all our wood and iron ore, while another demands that we give wood and ore to the Aus. trians. What effects our people most is the loss of territory. As for the economic conditions, we know we can never fulfill them, so they cannot matter much. If @ man asks me to pay & thousand dollars, may do so, but if he demands a billion, I know I can't comply and so should no! worry
 The depressing effects of the treaty are evident in Budapest. Wines are not served at hotels, flags are hall -masted and St. Stephens crown on the royal palace has been draped in black Joseph Horvath, a Hungar- ian soldier, recently committed sui eide, leaving his possessions to his comrades in the army.

WIL SON ASKS GLASS 10 MAKE APPEALF
 $15O,OO0,O00 LOAN
SAYS IT IS UNTHINKABLE WE SHOULD WITHHOLD FROM STARVING PEOPLE THE RELIEF THEY SUBTRACTION
 IS IMPERATIVE.

Washington, Jan. 28-Presi- dent Wilson today asked Sec retary Glass to make another appeal to Congress for author ity to loan $15O,OOO,OOO to Po- land, Austria and Armenia to relieve their desperate food situation.
 The president wrote the secretary that it was ''unthinkable' to him that the United States should with hold from the stricken people of those countries the assistance which could be rendered by making avail able on credit a small portion Of our exportable surplus of food"
 The presidents letter follows:
 With considerable regret I have noticed from the preass that congress Is delaying the granting of authority for the extension of prompt and gen erous relief to the stricken portion of Europe, the urgency and import anes of which, especially in respect to Poland, Austria and Armenia, you have fully explained to the Ways and Means Committee. It is unthinka.ble to me that we should withhold from those people who are in such men, tai and physical distress the assist ance which can be rendered by ma K ing available on credit a small pro- portion Of our exportable surplus of food which would alleviate the situa ton.
 While l am sure than you must have explained fully to the ways and means 0f-r J111aif faA Eon l., those parts of Europe where men, wo- men and children are now dying of starvation and the urgent necessity for prompt assistance, I beg of you that you make another appeal to Con gress- I am informed that through the published reports of hearings be- fore the ways and means committee. the Congress has now been furnish ed with incontrovertible facts showing the necessity for immediate affirma- tive action. This prosperous republic ought not to bear any part of the re- sponsibility for the moral and mate rial chaos that must result from all unwiilingness on our part to aid those not, merely to husband a small pro- portion Of our surplus, permit the happening of this great catastrophe.
 Action by the House Ways and Means Committee on MT. Glass; re- quest for authority to make the loans is expected in a few days. The Sec retary and other treasury officials ap- peared yesterday before the Republi- can steering committee to explain the necessity for the loan and to discuss the American financial situation geE- erally.
 Resolutions supporting 8 loan to the European countries have been adopted by the" board of directors oi tEe United States Chamber of Com merce and it was announced today that the member organizations had been asked to adopt similar resolu- tions and to commit their action to their senatorial representatives.

PARENTS WILL GET AWARD ON
 DEATH OF SON
Difficult to Determine De. gree on Which They
 Were Dependent.

It being difficult to determine the extent to which the parents of Mi chaeI Hurley were dependent on him for support, Compensation Comnis- sioner F. T. Buckingham approved an agreement entered into between the attorneys for John and Margaret Hur- ley, of County Waterford, Ireland, and the Bridgeport Brass company by for the death of their son.
 The son, Michael Hurley, was so se- verely burned in a gas explosion while working for the Brass company on Jan. 26, 1916, that he died in March, 1917.
 He was earning s21.89 a week at the time and if the parents had been entirely dependent and had been citi- zens of this country, they would be entitled to SIP weeks compensation of not more than half his weekly wage.
 The liability for compensation was unquest oned but the commissioner says in the award that Tt is difficult to secure direct evidence of what de gree of dependency existed at the time of the accident, and that after considering the case at length and consulting with the attorneys the commissioner feels that the payment of SIP weeks compensation at the rate of $4 a week was without dis count" was fair, just and equitable.
 The company had already paid $100 for funeral expenses.

As to the ability cS the nine owners to pay advonces he cited their profits. His figures showed that the Pittsburgh Coal Company made a net profit of approximately 5000, ,0oo for the two-year period of 1e14-1915. while for the two-year period soclrd-
 ing 1917-191S, the net profits was more than s21.0o0.oOo. The profit Of $14, ,852 in 1917, he said, repre- scented 2o.6 per cent. on the capital stock, and S690 on eacll enploye.
 Bittner pointed to the Lehigh Valley Coal Company as another corporation whose net profits increased enormous ly from 1914 to 1918. In 1914, he said they were s511, ,446, and in 1918 they came to S3,886, ,1S9.
 In the two year riad, f91+1915, he said, the CorsoIidatfSn Coal Company had net profits amounting to approx imately $4, ,5o0, 900; in 1917-1918, the net profits weer approximately $13, 800, 900. Further Pittner cited statistics which he said were obtained from the tseasury department and financial re- ports showing that 335 mining co$npa- nies in 1917 made 15 per cent on their capital stock; 311 made 20 Per cent;
 295 made 25 per cent; 270 made 30 percent; 232 made 40 percent or more; 197, so percent or more; 150, 100 percent or more; and eight com panfes made over 1000 percent Regardless of all increases he said. mine labor was receiving teddy fewer cents out of every dollar paid to op- orators for coal than they got in 1913 and 1914.

TWELVE OLDEST TREES ARE NOW
 BEING PEELED
Former Part of Original Woodland of Washing
 ton Park

Twelve of the oldest trees in the city ranging from 150 to 250 years, are being taken down this week by the Park department, the trees be- ing located in Washington park where they once formed part of the original woods which covered that stretch of what is now the city.
 The trees. all of them oaks, vary in height, one of them in particular approximately TO feet nigh and two feet six inches through the trunk at the base.
 In order that other trees in the vi- cinity of these venerable giants are not injured workers in Sne Pahk de- partment are first cutting off the limbs after which the trees will be a1- lowed to fall in a cIte -. sp De.
 Younger trees have already been set out to replace these old timers and 1t is planned to plant others this year. "Old age'' was given by Henry Cliffe, Superintendent of Parks, as the req son for cutting down the trees, stat, ing that they were all virtually dead now.

4 NEW CASES ARE REPORTED TODAY ID
 BOARD 0F HEALTH
TOTAL FOR CITY IS NOW 136-HEALTH OFFICER APPEALS AGAIN FOR MORE NURSES-THOSE WITH COLDS
 SHOULD STAY HOME.

Be careful,' is the warning of pr. Walter H. Brown, city's health officer, to all those who have colds and wish to prevent having the influenza. Today A new cases were reported to the Board of Health, making total number of cases now in the city of 436.
 Dr. Brown today met the manag- CTS of the motion picture houses and impressed upon them the necessity of keeping their houses clean, well ventilated and preventing any patrons from coughing or sneezing while in a theatre.
 The headth officer today stated he had decided from a close observation that the eases reported were in the majority due to lack Of proper pre- VentativeS on the part of the average citizen.
 His advice to all is to go home and go to bed when one discovers he has a cold with a fever. < Care should be taken to keep oneself warm and take hot baths and every means should pe used to prevent contaminating the rest of a family. pr. Browns one pig warning was not to dose oneself with aspirin tablets and whiskey. As pirin, he claims, is drug which should never be used except on the advice of a physician and he deliver. ed some rather warm remarks about the advertisements which are ap- bearing from aspirin makers advising &I. l~1
 this propaganda as strictly untrue advice.
 Great care should also be taken when a person has a cold with fever not to associate with the other mem bers of the family. The patient should use great care in destroying mouth and nose discharges and burning the cloth when used. He should have separate dishes and eating utensils and they should be kept away from those of the rest of the family and in order to play fair with the general public a person with such a cold should stay away from work and other public places until the cold has been cured as it is in this way that the disease is spread. In this way only can pneumonia or flu be averted by the average physician and medical at-
 
 soon as one becomes sick.
 Dr. Brown today again appealed to the nurses to register at the Board of Health rooms in the Welfare build ing and help do what they can to stop the suffering.
 Last night a special meeting of the Board Of Health was held at which it was decided that a special appro- priation would be asked from the ap- portionment board to help the de- partment fight the epidemic which is threatening the city. The exact amount has not as yet been determin- ed.
 The figures obtained this noon from the board shows that the number of cases in the city is steadily mounting every day and 1t would appear that 8 real epidemic, though milder than last year, is here.

INVESTIGATING
 DISABLING OF ARMY TRANSPORT Bunker Carried Away
 Which Caused Coal To Shift.

Washington, Jan. 28-Investigation of the cause of the disabling of the army transport Powhatan at sea is being made by an official board sit ting at New York. It. announcing this today, the War apartment said reports regarding Bolshevik activity by members of the transports crew or others on board had thus far been proven to be without foundation.
 From information available here it appears that in a heavy gale por- ton of the coal bunker bu1khead was carried away, allowing about 75 tona of coal to shift. The fuel choked the pumps and they could not keep up with a leakage through q clogged ash ejector. In spite of the rapidly ris- ing water in the fireroom, it was said, all the firemen remained on duty un- til ordered out by the chief engineer, when the water. was shoulder high.
