Armor Trust low bids, and on
the last before the present |
one it had great difliculty in getting |
any of the contract. The expressions |
of the public and the threatened action
of Congress admonished the Adminis |
tration not to take the whole contract |
away from the lowest bidder, and “|
part of the work was given lo the |
Midvale. On this, the third occasion |
when the Midvale underbid its rival, |
it gets half the work, and the other |
half is given to the Trust which year
after year had . submitted identical |
bids—a fact that of itself proved col- |
lusion—and has been repeatedly cou |
victed by the Midvale bids of using its |
position to extort unreasonable prices
from the Government.
Secretary Bonaparle’s excuse is that |
it would not be to the advantage of the |
Government to be limited to a single |
manufacturer for a supply of armor. |
Very true. But the Carnegie and Beth-
lehem armor mills would not evapor- |
ate or disintegrate if they were unused
for a time. The plants, which have
been paid for two or three times over |
out of the profits on armor, would re- |
main available for use at the earliest
opportunity, and the next time a Navy
Department offered a contract the |
Bethlehem and Carnegie Companies
would put in bids low enough to gel
the work, and they would not be many |
weeks in getting together the men |

en Hox,
After living seven weeks in 8 home
made incubator, the infant daughter
of Professor and Mrs, Joseph Wolf, of
Lewisburg, has gained three ounces
and bids fair to grow to a healthy
child, At first it was thought the
babe would not survive, but when it
showed signs of life the incubator was
hurriedly constructed of a wooden
box, lined with paper, cotton batting
and flannel, The top is of glass and
a temperature of seventy-eight degrees
is maintained by means of hot water
bottles. When first put into the in-
cubator the child weighed three
pounds and six ounces, but since that
time three ounces have been gained.
Nourishment is given by means of a
dropper. The infant perfectly
formed and will no doubt mature as it
should. It has large, clear black eyes
and a wealth of dark hair. Medical
circles in that county are watching
the case closely and are anxious to
learn whether the experiment with
