The American iied Cross has a'n- nounced Ils Third "Koll Call," begin¬ ning Nov. 2 and ending on the first anniversary of Armistice Day. Nov. 11, For its splendid performances o£ the past, not only in tho war, but in many cases of domestic emergency, such as lust year's epidemic of inllu¬ enza, and in innumerable cases of dis¬ aster, the Ued Cross may weil ask tho endorsement of the American people, conjidenl that it will be given.
In addition to this great record, however, the organization has plan¬ ned u comprehensive peace-time pro¬ gram including thu promotion ot pub¬ lic heilth, tiie e.\teusion ot the nurs¬ ing resources ot tliu country, the teaching ot First Aid, and many oth¬ er eiiiiuiiy important subjects. Un this platform as well as ou past achiuvumoiit tiie coutiuuud support of the Amuricau people should be given, not ouiy cheertuiiy, hut enthusiasti¬ cally.
Tho American Red Cross is an or¬ ganization which the American peo- ,ple should couiinuu tor all time. It i.> couductud Willi tho utmost economy, most of its chief ollicials giving thei' services without remuneration, so thlt practically the entire sum raised by tho dues and contributions of its niembera is devoted to relief purpos¬ es. Its splendid work in time ot dis¬ aster, famine or epidemic has saved thousands of lives and kept many thousands more from autfering, if not f?om actual death.
Every American citizen, male and female, should consider it both an honor and a duty to be a member of the American Red Cross. Pennsyl¬ vania hopes to enlist two million members in the coming Roll Call, as the ten-day period for securing mem¬ bera is called. If the people of the State fully understand what the Red Cross of the past has done and what the Red Cross of the future plans to do, Pennsylvania will enroll a far greater number than this. Everyone Bhould join.

U.S.UKGES JAPAN TO HURRY SIBERIAN REPLY
Second Note Sent Ovei Goopei- atlonhR,aiilnilnlslration,
Toklo.—The Japanese government not having yet replied to the Ameri¬ can note concerning cooperation In the administration of the Trans-Si¬ berian railroad, Il is understood here that tile United States government has despairhi'il a secxjnd note on the subject  in .lapan.
Aiiii'ricii. arr.ii-ding to report, saya in elTer; ;Ii.i; ili.' length of time Ja¬ pan is taUiiiu' 10 reply to the former note indicates the Importance which the Jni'iini..^.. L'.'v.-riiinent attaches to the sill..;.•¦•: a! :-•; le, and Intimates the riiiieil Sia:i's ciupletely shares this view of the iiiatri'r. The note Is said to express gratification in the fact that General Oi, commander of the Japanese expeditionary forces In Si¬ beria, has signilied his Intention to bring about comiilete co-operation be¬ tween Japanese and Anierican troops.
.Nevertheless, the United States it clear .\iiierlca is anxious a definite Iiolicy relative to Siberia, including the question of the withdrawal of .¦Vmerican tiooi>s, he announced, and in a perfectly friendly tone requests Japan to forward a reply to the origi¬ nal note as soon as convenient.
Infonnation has been received that the Jupanase reply will be forthcum- ing lu a few days. The reason for the delay seems to be the controversy be- j tWfcu '.he lllllil. ra;<'S aud lhe extrem¬ ists and 'he 'lilficulty of satisfying the military group.
Atter having her father, John Rob- erts, of Bethlehem,, arrested on « trumpted up charge of statuton' rape on Oct. 6, 15-year-old Mamie Roberta, confessed that she had lied and that she had made the charge to save her¬ self trom being sent to Sleighton farm after running away to Perth Amboy. This testimony was brought out at the habeas corpus proceedings liefore Judge .McKeen Monday morn¬ ing, and the prisoner was discharged while the wayward girl was placed under parole in care of Agnes Mc¬ Govern, probation offlcer.
The Roberts girl, who Is large for her age, stated ou taking tne stand, lliat the charge uf improper relations v.ith her father were not true ; that sbe had made the statement leading to her father's arrest before. .Miss McGovern at Bethlehem, when llif police there threatened to pn' her ill jail for a long sentence if she did not confess to the truth of the rumor current about her relations with her parent.
The girl ran away to Perth Amboy with another Bettlehem girl on Sep. tember 25, and    was    arrested    and biought back.     She claimed that her fright siarted when    the    policeman ¦ who made the arrest said that he had a warrant to bring    her    before    the Bethlehem police dead or alive, and not underslanding that the term waa used    on    ali    warrants, fiecame eat- tremely    frightened.      She    testlflad. that prior to that she had had trou¬ ble at home over her misconduct, and her father had threatened to have her arrested.    Two    neighbors,    a    Mrs. Bertha Ames and another woman, ahe claimed, told her to swear   that   her father had slept with her and In that way have bim sent to Jail Instead of herself.    This,    according to the da. fense, started the rirmor which led to- her telling the lie.
Robets, the prisoner, who has beem at the Northampton County Jail for the last three weeks, broke doim during the croes-ezamination of hla. daughter, and tears were streoanins down his face when Judge McKeea announced that he was discharged.
Assistant District Attorney James,. who prosecuted the calse made a mem¬ orandum of the names of the women the Robert's girl claimed had been re. sponsible for the rumor, as well aa the name of the factory at which the girl said she had worked at Perth Amboy, in order to investigate the truth of her testimony.
Judge McKeen in dismissing the case, warned the girl about any mis¬ conduct in the future, and espepialljr about running away from her home, stating that Miss McGovern was at liberty to place her under arrest at the least provocation.
