ous rumors of irregularities in the
Philipsburg district *have been in cir
culation. Their truth or (falsity will
be revealed by the action taken by W.
Harrison Walker, the Democratic
candidate, who on the face of the re-
turns was defeated by M. Ward Flem-
ing. a Philipsburg attorney, by a ma-
jority of but fifty-seven votes.
Former Judge Ellis IL. Orvis, of
Bellefonte, representing Mr. Walker,
presented the petitions to the court.
The petitions were signed by Joseph
E. Denning, Grace Jones Denning and
Mary Johnston Voyce, of the Second
Ward, and Ether Slee. Robert E. Gill
and Anna Hoffer, of the Third Ward.
Their belief is that there were irregu
larities in the election in the wards
designated. that there not correct
computation of the votes cast, their
contention being based on information
alleged to have been obtained by them
at the polls and from other sources.
Judge Furst, under auth

M. Ward Fleming on the face of the
returns was elected judge by 57 votes.
But his many friends believe that he
would not want and would not accept
the office if he did feel that he was il-
legally elected,
It is the same with Mr. Walker's
friends. If he was legally elected they
quite properly insist he ought to have
the office, and that Mr. Fleming is not
entitied to it if his election is depend-
ert on illegal votes.

He declared: “My outlook for the

terial prosperity. Individuals have
more money, Taxes are on the de-
crease and Governmental economy has
made for better business in all Hnes”
Approximately 70,000 men are em-
ployed in the Ford plants today, Ford
stated, and these men are earning
more than the 90,000 men employed in
Model T production,
Ford commented,
It has been said that national busi-
ness has suffered during the months
when we were preparing to produce
the new car. I do not believe it. Dur
Ing that period when we were not act-
ually building automobiles, we were
still spending hundreds of millions of
dollars for wages, materials, new ma
chipery and in experimental work.”
Although Ford officials would not
comment on the possible date when the
new car will be avallable to purchas:
ers, they stated that for more than a
month the chief manufacturing plants
have been producing cars in daily In‘
creasing numbers.

aggregated earnings totaling $18,000
The johs obtained for students in

duties. Most of these earnings are
represented In the savings made by
students who obtain thelr board In re
turn for waiting on tables in frater-

is unusually high when it is considered
that there are no big stores or indus
