KELLOGG TREATY IS RATIFIED WITH DISSENTING VOTE Only Blaine of Wisconsin Refuses to Support Anti War Measure By Aisociated Jrc Washington, Jan. 16. The Kellogg multi lateral treaty renouncing war is ratified and to day the Senate turned to another bill favored by President Coolidge the construction of fifteen cruisers for the After two weeks of quarreling over an interpretation of the pact pledging the nations of the world to resort to peaceful methods in the settlement of disputes, the Senate iate yesterday ratified the treaty, 85 to 1. Senator Blaine, Republican, Wisconsin, voted against it. Borah Wins Point Chairman Borah, of the Foreign Relations Committee, in charge of the treaty fight, broke the stubborn deadlock resulting from the demand for an interpretation by assenting to a report by the Foreign Relations Committee embodying its construction of the pact.

Senators Reed, Democrat, Missouri; Moses, Republican, New Hampshire, and Bingham, Republican, Connecticut, had held out for the interpretative report of the committee which declared that the naet did Hot interfere with Amer ica's right of self defense and added that tne Monroe Doctrine was a part of that system of self defense. Senator Boran yielded with the written agreement that the report was not to be considered as changing or modifying the treaty or as enectuatmg any reservation to it. Naval Fight Looms While Secretary Kellogg was busy to day notifying the other nations of the worla wno have signed the treaty of America's adherence, the Senate was just as busy considering the bill passed last year by the House, authorizing the bigger Navy. Proponents in the treaty contest, in many instances were opponents in the naval fight. Opponents of tne treaty for the most part were on the otner side to day, maneuvering for the naval bill.

Owing to the understanding by which tne treaty was placed anead of the naval bill in the Senate's calendar, leaders believed a final vote would be permitted on the latter. Senators Norris, Republican, Nebraska, and King, Democrat, Utah, supported by the Republican independent bloc, are prepared to wage a desperate fight against the naval bill, but unless they rely on a filibuster it is believed the measure will be brought to a vote within a week or ten days and passed.

Moody, son of a San Francisco capitalist.

The engagement, which was announced here yesterday by her parents. Dr. and Mrs. Clarence A. Wills, had been rumored since 1926, when Miss Wills was fighting her way toward the women's amateur net championship on the French Riviera, Young Moody and his father visited the Riviera while on a tour to Europe and Miss Wills and young Moody often were seen together then.

Reports Denied Reports of the engagement were denied, however, and only last week Miss Wills contradicted such a rumor, saying announcement of her engagement would come from her parents and not from the newspapers. The announcement did come from her parents in, a brief note mailed to her friends. WELCOME HELP TO PRESERVE CAMPUS (Continued from First Page) it would have been a big help," he continued. "We needed support and it was hard to get." The Dauphin county court ruled that the street can be legally open ed. Judge Frank B.

Wickersham, who refused the temporary injunction last fall, wrote the opinion denying the permanent injunction. This was handed down Monday. "Although we have lost the case on legal points," Mr. King said, "I am convinced that if these late comers really wrant the street di verted around the school grounds it i will be. We're interested in the re suit not the method.

So more power to them. Anything to halt the! street opening and virtually de 1 stroying the school campus." Closely on the heels of the court decision tne uuy riannmg uommis not look with disfavor on "any al ternate route which met the ap nroval of citv eneineers I Following this the alternate, plcn was suggested by the executive com mittee of the Municipal League working through a committee of dents. The Chamber of Commerce representatives are Harper W. Spong, J. Montgomery Trace and Elwood Mateer.

Representing the Municipal League in the proposal are J. Hor ace McFarland, J. Austin Brandt, Ross A. Hickok, Vance C. McCor mick and Herman P.

Miller. Map Prepared For Leagae E. Clark Cowden, city engineer, said the map showing the alternate route was prepared In his office about three weeks ago for the Municipal League. "We just made it for them," he said. "It is in no way the city's Dlan." I The proposed alternate route follows closely that offered by the School Board and suggested by Harry A.

Levin last spring and published in yesterday's Telegraph. Sixth street will be widened to eighty feet between Division street. and a point just south of Graham. Hoffman street star from this and swings westward across Graham street in what the engineers call a "graceful curve" and becomes a straight thoroughfare at Hoffman and Antoine streets, two blocks to the north. From there the course follows a street which some time in the future will be made eighty feet wide to the Linglestown Road.

The curve has. a radius of 500 feet and clips the corner of the Wil liam Penn High School campus, necessitating the cutting of only a few of the trees. Those on the proposed route, which cuts the campus, will be untouched. Those who suggest the alternate plan point out the campus will re main intact and that requests of residents against the cutting of the trees will be granted. Harper W.

Spong, one of the Chamber of Commerce committee through which the plan was submitted said: "We are working for a Just solution without bias or prejudice." Elwood G. Matter and J. Montgomery Trace, the other members of the committee could not be reached for their views. The former is out of the city. Heavy Paving Expense Mr.

King called attention to another matter which he said "has been in a way overlooked." 'The city must bear the entire cost of the paving, a quarter of a mile, and that will cost between $25,000 and $40,000," he said "There are no abutting property holders and the school district cannot be assessed. "This paving cost will be borne directly by the taxpayers of the city Comment on Change of Front The change of front by forces which sought to relocate Sixth street through the William Penn High School campus from last spring until the last few davs when they swung behind the wider Sixth street original proposals is being widely commented on by interested residents of the West End to day. They point out that until the present every pressure was exerted to keep patrons of William Penn from gaining their desire to avoid danger to school children and retain the beauty of the grove of great old trees.

Private citizens of the West End of the city in addition to signing their names to netitions bv the hundreds held public meetings in William penn auditorium ana two in the Court House. Delegations repeatedly called unon council and the school board, so trreat was the interest: In narents in safeptiardiniz their children from the dangers of a street through the campus and the destruction of trees which would sult in the grading operations. Says Help Considerably Late Horace B. King, lawyer, who be came interested In saving the trees and preserving the school campus intact when the City Commissioners passed the ordinance for opening and grading the street said to day.

"I am speaking for the representatives of all the parent teacher associations and other interested parties when I say that this help is most welcome but considerably late. The court decision has gone against us." Mr. King ctUioned the court for an injunction as soon as the city signified its intention of opening the street and parent teacher bodies and others from all parts of the city speedily rallied to help. Mass meetings were held. Money was contributed.

Petitions were circulated. When. Judge Wickersham refused the temporary injunction the fight was continued. Continuing on the subject of help offered now which would have been "more appreciated when the Hoffman street fight started," Mr. King said: Twice Refused Help "Twice I called upon the editor of the Morning Patriot and the Evening News and asked his co operation, his editorial help in our fight to restrain the city from cutting away beautiful trees and materially damaging a school's playground.

Twice I was refused. After the Morning Patriot printed an editorial citing the levying of a special city tax on the gross receipts of the Harrisburg Railways Company it seemed that they were going in favor of the streets opening. From the first it seems, the only benefit from the street opening would accrue to the railways company. "In the same edition appeared an editorial on the city planning commission and Hoffman street to the effect that these men serve the city WllllUUL mill unci a wv, ouuuj lems thoroughly and should notj I nave mcir ueuisiuu aci name. won.

The Chamber of Commerce "was lukewarm on the matter" when approached by Mr. King at the begin tha Wal action to stOD the uiB street opening. une League, likewise avoided stand. The att tude of these several other civ orwto ons was; similar, he said. Neither the Cham ber of Commerce nor the MunPf'! League helped in any way in the legal battle to protect the scnooi; "When we would approach an individual the answer would inevitably be: 'Well, Individually, I'm with you, but collectively, well that's another matter'." Mr King said the success of the case against the street opening from the first depended on arousing public sentiment.

He granted the weak th leeal strength, shattered finally by the opinion handed down Monday in Dauphin county court. "People were lnterestea, ne con were uiiciu, were Betting support tlnued from all Quarters. Hundreds signed, i TELEGRAPH I IF the petitions in the hands of the school children of the city. remember the city ordi nane to and erade the street was passed during the school recess, Coincidentally with the opening of scnooi we set out to pou tne noie city, mis was prauueat. ui cut brief time before school closed school children throughout the city secured 2300 names on petitions later presented to Council.

These petitions were signed by whole blocks." Sunerintendent Clvde H. Gar wood's order forbidding the children Uto pa i Mto cUon of petitions was regarded as "a death blow to the cause by Mr. King. "Our success depended on a crystallized public opinion," he said. "We knew our legal status was not of the strongest but if we could have showed the court that the majority of people in this city had definitely expressed themselves as opposed to cutting through the campus, it might have been a different story." 1 V' First Suggested Last Year kThe proposed plan for a wide reverse curve from Sixth and Graham streets west to connect with HoH man a short distance north of Graham was originally made by Harry Levin, builder, and owner of the ground in the north side of Graham street, Sixth to Hoffman.

Mr. Levin made the suggestion at a public mass meeting May 31, last year, in the Dauphin County Courthouse. He pointed out that a sweeping curve could be worked out aa vantageously by starting it a short distance below Graham street in Sixth, then swinging westward and cutting across his ground at Hoffman and Graham streets. Mr. Levin said at that time that he would give, the necessary ground from his tract in return for closing a small alley through his ground west of and parallel with Sixth street above Graham.

The proposal was received with much enthusiasm by the school hoard and directors were hopeful of effecting a compromise along such lines at that time. Offer Defeated June 4 Mr; Levin repeated his offer at a conference of the school board and the City Planning Commission and subsequently told Council members of his willingness to furnish the necessary ground without cost in return for closing the alley. But his offer was given no consideration at the time, E. S.

CONTROVERSIES SEEN IN ASESMBLY (Continued from First Page) recently in connection with both matters and the Bay State's experi ences are likely to be aired at com mittee hearings. I Important measures which can inot be classified as either strictly i political nor non political are the proposed repeal of the anthracite tax and the suggested curtailment of power of the Game Commission. Powerful forces have aligned themselves in favor of the anthracite repeal but the loss of $5,000,000 annually in revenue has heretofore proved a deterrent to legislators otherwise willing to approve it. The open season on doe this fall caused a commotion among sportsmen and politicians with the result that attacks and counter attacks are expected to pursue tills affecting the commission through the session. With both branches in recess un i til next Monday night little pro gress on the bills already introduced lis expected to be ir.

de by commit tees until th eflrst of the week. At that time another flood of bills will be poured into the law making machinery. Election law measures wlM be among those brought forward at that time. A number of measures carrying out various recommenda tions in Governor Fisher's annual message will probably be ready for introduction. Parole Hotelman Sentence was suspended to day in the Dauphin County Court in the case of John R.

Plott, owner of the Paxton street Hotel, 167 Paxton street, charged with the unlawful sale and possession of liquor and the unlawful possession of liquor and the maintaining of a disorderly house.

SETTLE TWO RIVER ROAD DAMAGE CASES VIEWERS TELL COURT Settlement of two property damage cases along the River Road decisions by the Dauohin county board of viewers, were effected, the boards announced, to aay. The petition of B. F.

Barker, Heckton, for damages he alleged were sustained to his property during the improvement ot the' new River Road was withdrawn. An agreement between the County Commissioners on damage, and F. L. Morrow, also Heckton, who alleged that he sustained damages during the same road building, accounted for the other settlement. Viewers On the land of A.

M. Hinds, Fort Hunter, who also appealed for damages, found that Hinds' property was in another township than the one claimed in his petition. They will file a new report at the meeting of the next quarter sessions court. No action has been taken by the county on the cases of other property owners along the River Road where many residents say that they have sustained damages through the raising of the grade of the new road, which in many cases, brought the highway higher than tne front doors of the houses. They complained also about inadequate drainage facilities.

The only improvement in such cases that has been completed is the building of the drives into the properties which the contractor was forced to do at the tune of the building of the new road. Wins First Case Leon D. Brenner and Miss Hen rietta Wickey, attorneys for Lewis Sowers, of Harrisburg, won Brenner's first case to day when a Dauphin County Jury returned a verdict of not guilty.

FILE 0VERGRADE SUNBURY PLAN (Continued from First Page) to the south. For years the entire section south of Sunbury has beun unable, especially in Inclement or cold weather, to get into the up river town. The Chamber of Commerce request of the State Highway Department for an improved road met with a stone wall in the presence of a dangerous grade crossing just south of the city. The Chamber thereupon appealed for the elimination of the crossing and this the Commission, at a previous hearinj, declared to be dangerous. The State Highway Department and the Pennsylvania Railroad were directed to agree upon a suitable plan and this was the plan submitted this morning.

Sunbury's City Commission, it is understood, wishes to be relieved of as much of the cost as possible, and in order to show its financial ability under the circumstances, submitted a financial statement of I indebtedness, etc. Returns From Convention Citv Eneineer E.
