Prefers First Alternative. "Until we adopt either one of these programs, there will continue to be confusion and some considerable public impatience with condition as there are. Of th etwo alternatives, I prerer the first, namely, the developing of the distinctly Federal function and the coincident development and application of the distinctly State function.

"The Federal function seems to me to relate to the suppression of smuggling, the conduct of the regulatory system controlling industrial alcohol and medicinal liquors in their permissible and desirable uses for other than beverage purposes, the action with respect to interstate and large scale illegal-combinations that commercialize the manufacture, distribution and sale of illicit liquor, and the prosecution of corrupt groups of officials who may be in conspiracy with commercial illicit liquor traffickers and who thus parallze the operations oi local prohibitory laws."

Special to The Eagle.) Scranton, Aug. 15 No report having been made up to noon today in tests of blood taken from suffer ers at Camp Tabor, near Lake Como, where between 20 and 30 girls were stricken suddenly ill, the nature of the malady is not definitely determined. Conditions at the camp today were reported to be much improved.

'The children ill at the camp are getting along well and there is none in any critical condition," said Dr. H. C. White of Lake Ariel, State Medical Inspector for Wayne County. 'There will be no definite diag nosis until the report on blood tests is made and I have not received that yet." he added.

Dr. George C. Merriman of Lake Como said today that he continues to hold to the opinion that the disease is a mild form of infantile paralysis. Whether it is Infantile paralysis, some form of typhoid fever or something else will have to await definite diagnosis." Dr. Alfred H.

Iason, of 338 New York who made a flying trip to the camp while visiting his own daughter at Camp Winona, four miles away, holds counter to Dr. White that there is no indication ot anything at Camp Tabor more serious than "gastro-intestlnal disor derindigestion frora food.

Pederson, Superintendent of the Norwegian Hospi tal, who spoke in Danish, Swedish and Norwegian; Sigurd Arnessen, editor of the Norwegian News, and Representative Patrick J. Carley. Peter P. Smith of Smith, Reiher and Griffin, counsel for the bank, said an investigation led them to believe that the first reports were started by a Swede who came to the bank about three weeks ago and was unsuccessful in his efforts to obtain a loan. This man, said Smith, wanted to borrow $16,000, offering as collateral a house worth only $10,000.

When he was refused, according to Smith, the man went to a speakeasy in the neighborhood and said he had tried to get money at the bank and "the bank didn't have it." Not long after that, Smith said, false rumors of a run" began to circulate, culminat ing in the false rumor of the death of Dr. Lewis. The officials of the bank expressed confidence that the way in which the crisis had been met would soon allay the fears of the timorous. Every effort was made to facilitate the payment of all who wanted their money. At 10 a.m.

a big armored motor truck brought bags of money to the bank and the 17 tellers moved swiftly in paying the depositors. Payments will continue, saia ur. Lewis, until every depositor who wants his money has it. Avauaoie funds are sufficient to meet every demand. In addition, savings banks witn aggregate resources of more than $1,250,000,000 today pledged assistance to the bank should it be needed.

Announcement of this was made by Henry R. Kinsey. chairman of Group V. Savings Bank Association of New York, which includes all sav ings banks in Brooklyn, Queens. Nassau, Suffolk and Staten Island.

Their assistance, he said, would not be confined to meeting withdrawals, but also would extend to help tn "locating the person or persons cir culating the malicious rumors." More Aid Offered. Three offers of assistance were telephoned Dr. Lewis shortly before 1 p.m. by E. C.

Delafleld, president of the Bank of America; George V. McLaughlin, president of the Brooklyn Trust Company, and Stephen Duny, millionaire president of J. P. Duffy a building material firm. Dr.

Lewis expressed his thanks but said no help was needed since the bank was in sound financial condition. Delafleld offered "any amount of financial assistance that may be needed." McLaughlin phoned that "the Brooklyn Trust support is unlimited." Duffy offered a personal loan oi to his friend. Dr. Lewis.

Hit by Ruling Washington. Aug. 15 (f The Interstate Commerce Commission today ruled that railroads rendering freight service to New York City could not be permitted to continue the practice of making freight de-liveries by truck service away from their own stations. The commission held that the maintenance of "constructive station service" on freight deliveries in Manhattan by the New York Central, Jersey Central and Baltimore and Ohio was unlawful. New Haven Hit Also.

The New Haven Railroad was likewise required to discontinue "constructive station service," and the proposal of the New York Central to give "constructive lighterage" on New England traffic to and from New York City also was ruled unlawful. In addition the Commission held that it had no power under Federal law to compel railroads to establish store door receipt and delivery for freight in New York and elsewhere. Constructive stations referred to In the decision are points maintained inside Manhattan, off the lines and away from the rail terminals, to which the railroads have instituted the practice of forwarding freight by trucks from the actual rail heads. The railroads thus pay a portion of the cost of trucking freight a part of the distance to and from New York shipping houses, and off their own rails. Since the cost of this service is included in the rail rate, the commission's decision held that it constituted undue rendering of free service to New York shippers and consignees of freight.

Other Roads Seek Right. The question was raised by the proposal of other railroads to enter the trucking field to meet the competition of the carriers so engaged. New York business intervening, suggested that instead of the constructive station trucking service, railroads should be required to install a general practice of delivering and receiving freight at the doors of business houses in that city. Dispute I. C.

C. Meaning. At the offices of the Port of New York Authority it was said this afternoon that, the I. C. C.

decision, instead of holding that railroads "could not continue the practice of making freight deliveries by truck," holds that they "need not eontiue making such deliveries if they see fit to discontinue them." The Port Authority spokesman continued: "After making such deliveries for veers the railroads announced some time ago that they would discontinue doing so. Various interested organizations, such as the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, the New York Chamber of Commerce and the Merchants Association moved before the C. C. to prevent this. the roads suspended action pending a decision." W.

The progress of negotiations in the political committee of the conference with reference to evacuation of the Rhineland had given rise to the argument that if the French and Germans could agree on this graver question it would not be possible for anybody to stand out against agreement in the financial committee on the matter of a comparatively small sum of money. The Chancellor, it was said, felt he was being pushed into a false position and exposed to criticisms from home for backing down after having aroused the entire nation to his support. Chancellor Snowden made known the fact that his position was unchanged in a letter to Premier Jas-par of Belgium, who communicated the message to the other chief delegates. This provoked a meeting of four of the main creditor nations yesterday at which they adopted a resolution to -the effect that they stood together on the Young plan. Plan Their Battle.

They fixed the front upon which they will do battlie with the British Labor Chancellor. Two main contentions formed their principal weapons. First, that the percentages of division of repara tions fixed in the Young plan are so finely adjusted that rearrangement is impossible; second, that other advantages accruing to Great Britain equalize any possible financial loss suffered under the new reparations scheme. Talk With Germans. Mr.

Snowden and Arthur Hender son, British Foreign Minister, dined with Gustav e-esemann, cierman Foreign Minister, last night, and discussed the situation as it affected the interests of their countries. The meeting was of far less Importance, however, than the French, Belgian, Italian and Japanese conversations, since Germany is the sole debtor nation and the problems raised by Mr. Snowden ones for the creditor nations to settle among themselves.

Sail said today ha simply told the woman he'd been married to for five years that he was falling in love with someone tlse that, in fact, the someone else happened to be the 19-year-old Rlrl who was living in their home with them at the time. He thought it would be a good idea for them to marrv.

His first wife agreed with him. She accompanied her husband to the MaiTlage License Bureau, loaned bride No. 2 a wedding dress and accompanied them to the church, but did not remain for the ceremony. After that the three set up housekeeping in the chummiest tort of Frank Sail. 3ft.
