Recess of Parliament.
 London Dec. 17-With Parliament in recess all eyes were today turned on Dublin to see what action Dail Eireann would take upon the Irish peace treaty. It was believed that the action of the British Parliament in ratifying the treaty yesterday would have some effect upon the members of the Sim Fein Legislature.
 Premier Lloyd-George won a com paratively easy victory in having the pact approved by both branches of Parliament. A recess was taken uH- til Monday because of the possibility that action upon the treaty by DaiI Eirean might make further meas- ures necessary by Parliament.
 By DANIEL O'CONNELL.
 Dublin, Dec. 17-From a trust worthy source 1t was learned today that a secret vote would be taken upon the Irish peace treaty by DasI Eireann this afternoon.
 "A fateful and far reaching decis- ion is being taken by the govern ment,'' said the official organ of the concerns the future of Ireland; con- sequently the future of IreIand's army It is the duty of the army not to allow it's efficiency or discip- line to be impaired by political hap penings. The army is the servant of the nation and will obey the na- tionaI will. It will never be men, ace to the people, but will remain the defender of rights and liber- ties"

Big Reward Offered.

Big Reward Offered.
 Lindenfeld has been in Europe for about three months. it was learned at the Department of Justice, and Syl- vester CosgrOve, of the Department of Justice has been trailing him there for two months.
 Officials stated that Lndenfeld was under surveillance while in New fork and that the department has secured nearly enough evidence to warrant his arrest when he sudd enly disap- peared and 1t was several weeks be- fore his trail was picked up again in Europe.
 It was learned that while in New York, the huge rewards offereth for the capture of those responsible for the Wall, Street explosion had been dangled before Lindenfeld in the hopes that he might tell what he knew in an effort to collect the re- ward. All of these efforts were for naught, however.
 Burns said that he would not care to discuss Iindenfeld's connection with any organization until he had received evidence which has been gathered in Europe, but indicated that 1t had been assumed that Lind enfield was probably connected with some Communist organization.
 May Implicate Woman.
 Lindenfeld has been questioned all most constantly by the police since his arrest. He is said to have confessed naming five ringleaders( including a. woman.
 The bomb was said to have been manufactured in a woman's home, Lindenfeld was reported to have said that another woman member of the conspiracy had had J. P Morgan un- der observation for some time before the explosion.
 Newspapers attribute Lindenfeld with the statement that mechanical mistake caused explosion of the bomb 15 minutes before it was due to go off
 Lindenfeld is supposed to have re- Ceived funds from Moscow He said that all his colleagues were now in Europe.
 Police SkepticaI.
 New York, Dec. 17.-Police official Is were skeptical today of the confession attributed to the "Chief Ringleader'' of the Wall Street explosion plot, as reported from Moscow, Poland. The prisoner, Wolfe Linderfe1d was quot ed saying that a woman, occupying g an office across the street, had J. F. Morgan under surveillance, but that his life was saved by the fact that the bomb exploded 15 minutes ahead ot time.
 Police officials recalled that parts of clock work were found showing that the internal machine was timed to explode at certain time. The burst occurred on the stroke of twelve noon indicating that the bomb had been set to go off at that time (Continued on Page Six)

POORLY PAID SECTION men

Editor State Journal:
1 see in The State Journal of Octo-
Der Is the rate of pay per hour for
all railroad employees. Section men
were rated at 40 cents per hour. AS
a matter of fact the section man only
gets "a cents and 81 cents per hour.
This only makes them $2.96 for an
8-hour day, where other employees
other than this class of labor get from
$3.50 to $500 for the same hours.
Section laborers all thru war time and
up to last. July did not get over q u
cents and ASH cents per hour and
when the orders came for a cut in
wages last July, the section men were
the ones to suffer with 81 cents per
hour taken off their ASH cents and
42h cents pay, which left them the
present scale of 81 cents and 81 cents.
At this the men in most places are sat-
isfied to work and not say much
about it, but they want it understood
that they are the lowest paid en-
ployes in railroad work and with an
other cut in their wages, expected in
the near future, don't see how some
of us are going to make it. We can
not even rent a house for less than
SIS month and not much of a place
at that. We can't buy food for four
or five in family on 81 cents per hour
and have much left to buy winter
clothes with.

CHURCH A POWER AGAINST WAR
Has Ability to Reach Large Masses
From the Pulpit.

Providence, r. I, Oct. 20.-The
Christian church. comprising all de-
nominations, has unrivalled means OF
using it's power against war, Mrs. Geo.
o. Robinson of Pasadena, Cal. told
the Woman's Home Missionary society
of the Methodist church at its annual
meeting here.
Its breadth of organization, It's
ability to reach large masses. from the
pulpit and to secure formal resolutions
from all varieties of mass bodies thru
its Iaymen and its preachers, its
weighty influence-all give to the
Christian church in America such an
opportunity as has never before pre-
scented itself" Mrs. Robinson said.
Concerted action on its part will
convince the world that the Christian
church is impregnably founded upon
the Ten Commandments, the Golden
Rule and the teachings of Christ.
Think of the influence such mass
movement of the Christian people here
in America would have upon the pep
pie of other races and nations Every
where we should find that our action
had given encouragement to the peo-
pies of all lands-such encouragement
as would produce results that states
men would be obliged to heed.
Leaders of American Christianity.
help US each to count one in seeing
and using the greatest opportunity
ever presented to the Christian
church"

SAGE TEA DARKENS
HAIR TO ANY SHADE
Don't stay gray! Here's a simple
recipe that anybody can ap-
ply with a hair brush.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded. gray hair to it's natural
color dates back to grandm others
time. She used it to keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and attractive.
Whenever her hair took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance, this
simple mixture was applied with won
derful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays. by asking at
anYdrug store for a bottle of ''Wyeth's
SagV ana Sulphur Compound" you will
get this famous old preparation, i'm
proved by the addition of other in
gradients, which can be depended
upon to restore natural color and
beauty to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair. taking one
strand at time. By morning the
gray hair disappears, and after another
application or two, it becomes beauti-
fully dark and glossy.-Adv.

Thefts From American Relief Admin
iStration Have Been Small.
London, Oct. 20.-Thefts of food
supplies sent to Russia by the Amer
lean relief administration have been
very small says letter from Lyman
Walter Brown, European director of
the administration, which is quoted
by today's London Times. The letter
concerns primarily reports that the
Russians took large quantities of sup
plies sent to Petrograd on board the
Danish steamship Phoenix and Mr..
Brown declares the loss occasioned by
the action of longshoremen there was
only slightly more than one-half of
per cent. He declares that this loss
could not by any stretch of the
imagination be called looting.
Only 1870 pounds of a cargo of
1.37S,363 pounds was missing between
the time the steamer was loaded in
Hamburg until the supplies were
placed in the Petrograd warehouses
and this shortage was inclusive of all
losses. Mr.. Browns letter adds that
American relief administration trains
have reached distant points in Kazan.
Samara, Simbirsk and Saratov, with
comparatively no shortage in their
contents.
