HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH KNOX SAYS WILSON CAN ARM SHIPS Pennsylvania Senator Reviews Legal Aspects of Submarine Situation Washington, D. C„ March 8.—"I have not the slightest doubt that President Wilson has the power under the Constitution to arm American merchant ships for defensive pur poses," said Senator Philander C. Knox yesterday. "The government Is not rendered 'helpless and contemptible.' The President has ample authority to arm these merchant ships, and there need be no concern about the pirate laws of 1819 interfering. "If the President has the authority to supply arms to merchant ships as he himself said he has, and as I be lieve he has, Congress could enact no law that would curtail that authority. The constitutional right of the President cannot be infringed by a statute." This succinct statement of his views from a man who has served as Attor ney General under two Presidents, us Secretary of State under Taft and during five years of previous service in the United States Senate had a part in much important legislation seems to help clarify the situation. "The suggestion that the comman der-in-chief of the army and navy has not the authority under the Constitu tion to protect American ships and American lives appears to me to be unworthy of argument," he said. "There is no question about that au thority. The fact that Congress has enacted certain laws which appear to conflict with that grant of power may be brushed aside as unimportant. We know that Congress cannot limit the constitutional power of the President, and that is all we know. The Presi dent is entirely justified in proceed ing to arm the ships as he originally proposed." Senator Knox is in favor of the adoption of the cloture rule as agreed upon by the committee representing the Republican and Democratic cau cuses; the amendment to the new rule which prohibits amendments to a pending bill after cloture has been in voked appeals to him as fair and a proper means of preventing further filibustering after deciding to bring the main question to a vote. "I will support the ne\v rule," said Senator Knox. "I understand it has been agreed to by both Republicans and Democrats and there seems to be a very decided sentiment in favor of providing some way of closing debate in the Senate. This is the same rule as proposed by the Senate Rules Com mittee last Fall and I think it will commend itself to all Senators. I do not anticipate any filibuster against its adoption, since, with the entire summer before us, a filibuster would have a hard time surviving." HIST! OLD NICK SENT ME; HERE'S MY NECKTIE [ConUnucd From First I 'age ] proceeded forthwith to unllmber his tongue and spun this tale: Thirty Bachelor* "Thirty of us, bachelors all, took a few days oft from work in New York and went to Washington for the in auguration. While there the idea struck me that it would be mighty In teresting to prove that we could get back to New York on our own re sources in a given period of time. It was agreed that we turn over all our watches, rings and other valuables ex cept eighty-five cents apiece. Into safe hands, and start out by different routes, stopping off in each important town for financial re-enforcement and suste nance. In each town we were to visit one person whom we knew through a mutual friend but had never met. To him we would tell our story, leaving out everything that might give him knowledge as to who we were and what our connections. On Thursday morning at 10 o'clock we (four of us agreed to the stunt) should meet in New York at a given place and the one who had the most' money In his clothes would be the win ner and the one with the least amount of money must treat the crowd to a big blow-out. Gets Much Fan Out of It "Baltimore was my first stop and York my second.- At the latter place a middle-aged lawyer received my mes sage through his stenographer, who told him that I WHS just there on a social call. Busy as he was, he received me cordially and after learning the game sent his assistant out to rummage in the cash drawer. I nave missed sev eral meals but the fun of watching the effect of the series of unusual visits on the one man in each city upon whom we call Is an intensely interesting study in psychology." A piece of pie a la mode warmed the stranger to greater confidences and It leaked out that the four who were on their way to New YorK were two staff men on the New York Tribune, one minister and one bond salesman. Har vard, Williams, Kenyon. and were the four universities represented. All four are preparedness advocates, the minister having attended the naval cruise for civilians last summer and the other three being lieutenants in the Reserve Officers' Corps of the United States Army. One is a former football captain, Williams 1914, another a for mer editor on the Harvard Crimson, and all full .ot the novelty of the ad venture and delighted with the recep tion given wherever they happened to land. York County Cases are Appealed For Pardon Application was tiled to-day for par don of four of the Italians convict ed In York county a few years ago on the chargo of C rowing explosives,* writing blaakhand letters and Intimi dation and the case will be heard on March 21. The men are Joe Catalano, Domlnick Campanello, Salvatore Di Stefano and Joseph Campanello, the latter rejoicing in the alias of Lew Dumb. It is contended that the sen tences of 5 to 10 years were excessive in view of the circumstances of the case. Another York case filed to-day was in behalf of a pardon for Stewart Chilson, wh oheld up William Mur phy and his mother near Williams' Grove as they were returning from Harrlsburg markets and took 155. He claims that his sentence of Ave to eight years, dating from August 18, 1916, was too great and that he has been a tnodel prisoner.

Some time ago he created quite a sensation on "Let's Civilize Marriage Laws." He is deeply interested in the Chinese problem and in speaking on the questions involved says: "Measured by a military yardstick, China seems to be somewhat out classed by her Christian rivals, but let's have another look at China: Its statesmen and scholars have ever stood at the forefront with the great est of the earth. Much of our Western wisdom is but the borrowed and re vamped learning of olu China. Our much preached, but little practiced. Golden Rule —the very soul of moral life—came to us from Confucian sources. "And take another look at China, my munition-boosting friends; let me point you a perspective of this won derful nation that evidently has never come within rangre of your observa tion. For more than 4,000 years China has preserved her geographical integ rity practically unchanged, and with out a gun!

While the mother was absent from the. room but for a few minutes, the outfit boiled over and scalding hot water poured over the infant." The above news item appeared in a Rochester, N.

Shampooing merely cleanses the scalp for a few days then tho scales form again as thick as ever. To destroy the dandruff germ and get rid of the dandruff for good, part the hair and apply a little of the gen uine Parisian Sage directly on the bare scalp and rub It in with the fin ger tips until absorbed. You will sure ly be-aniazed at the result of even one application, for your hair and scalp will look and feel 100 per cent, better. Only a few days' massage with Pa risian Sage should be needed to de stroy the germs that cause the dan druff to form. The scalp becomes healthy, the hair will grow better and show more life and vitality and you should no longer be troubled by dan druff. Faded, dull or lifeless hair is quickly restored to beauty by this simple process, which is absolutely harmless and will not stain the hair or make it greasy. Parisian Sage can be obtained from H, C. Kennedy and druggists every where. It is not expensive.
