TiaJo Council, Uov.' engaged In making
plans for obtaining a larger poitton of
the South Amoileali trade.
Mr. Johnson returned home last night
fiom a meeting of the council In New
Tori;, arid Is enthusiastic over the work
the Government committee and the coun
cil can do. For the present, however, the
program Is only In organization, and Jlr.
Johnson could not outline all that is pro
nosed. But ho did announce that one of
ihc most Important things for the future
Hade telallons between South American
countries and the United States la the
obtaining of a dollar exenange system,
fo that It shall not be necessary for
American gold to go there by tho way of
London.
EXCHANGE SYSTEM BENEFICrAU
"It does not Heem the light thing for
America to go down to South America
and steal away from tho countries that
are now engaged ln"""var the business
they have built up: but Instead, we be
lieve that this country must bo after
the trade In much the same way as It
should have befote there was any var.
And, for this reason, theio will be a
constructive program ami we shall strive
to cieate a demand for American goods
and to Improve the exchange arinnso-
ments so that tlic importers of South
America will want to buy from U3," said
Mr. Johiuon. "Our woik will be dona
Just as though there wcio no war in
piozrpos.
"Vh"ii asked some time ago If Argentine
nould not now be buying all her Im
ports ftom tho United States," lie con
tinued, "a diplomat replied that It would
certainly not send tho trado bore, but
thnt America must come down there and
set It. AVo propose to build up the trado
liy Improving the cn change system and
by acutlng a demand for American
poods. We hae been buying much more
from South America than traders ol' that
country have been buying from the
United Slates. Hut wo shall soon sell
nion than wc buy if wc have the trado
arrangements Improved.

Washington party Stato committee In In
dorsing Vance C, McCoimlck as the
Washington party candidate for Gov
ernor, tho Democratic candidates and
campaign speakers arrived hero this
morning to attend the meeting of tho
Stato Federation of Democratic Clubs.
Tho cntlio day Is to be given over to tho

Tho campaign party came heie from
Lock lis veil, wfiere Congiessman A.
Mitchell Palmer last night assailed Sen
ator Penrose for instigating the Catlln
piobe to.investlguto the city of Phila
delphia, hnd then abruptly shutting oK
the work of the Commission when It
recmed about to e::poso tho Inner work
ing of tho Penrose organization,
Mr. Palmer challenged Senator Penioso
to tell tho people of Pennsylvania Just
why tho Commission had suddenly con
cluded Its work. The election of Rudolph
Blankenbtng as Mayor of Philadelphia,
Mr. Palmer attributed directly to the
unexpected revelations made to the peo
ple of that city by tho Commission be
fore It dropped out of c::l3tcnce.
Tho charge that he would just as leave
sacrifice a lriend as a foe if ftc sacrifice
would accomplish tho ends of his political
knavery was hurled at Senator Penrose.
Referring to the Indictment which he has
made against the Senator, Mr. Palmer
said:
"As I have remarked before. Pentose
talks much about what he lias done for
Pennsylvania, and 1 tell you that you
should stop and think what ho has dono
ti Pennsylvania. I have not made one
statement about Penrose anywhere which
ic not absolutely verified by his record.
Whenever I have cited Instances of his
votos In the Senate I have given the date
md tbo page of thu Congressional Record
on which It may be lound, so thnt any
one may turn to that record himself and
read Penroso's shame "
One of the stops mode by the cam
paigners, prior to reaching Lock Haven,
was at tho State Giango encampment
and fair at Centre Hall. Hero Mr. Palmer
had an opportunity to see the largest
crowd he has mot since ho began his
tour 10 days ago. Fully MM persons were
on the full- grounds, although the number
v hlch wan able to crowd Into Grange
Hall, where the addresses wore made,
was comparatively small.
The candidates spoke In practically all
the towns In Mifflin, Centie and Clinton
Countlen dining tho course of the day.
The automobile tour will be resumed to
morrow morning and Lackawanna
County will bo covered. Vance C. Mc
Cormick, who was not with the party
vestcrday, came here this morning from
Harrisburg, and will continue tho tour
tomorrow.

WILMINGTON POLICE
PROBLEM WAITING
A LEGAL SOLDTION
City Solicitor Advises Com
mission to Withhold New
Appointments Until He
las Examined Law.
WILMINGTON, Del.. Sept. lT.Koliilng
further will be dono toward qdatlfylng
tho policemen who were appointed on
Tuesday until City Council has coiibM-
Lered the subject this evening and de
cided what Is to be done. The point has
been raised that the resolution adopted
by City Council was Illegal. The law
provides that tho police force shall bo
enlarged from time to time upon the
recommendation of Council, but Councils'
resolution authoilzed Hie Pollco Commis
sion to incicase the forco instead of
lecommending It. The point wus pushed
with such vigor that City Solicitor Daniel
O, Hastings advised the Pollco Commis
sion not to proceed further In the mat
ter until lie could look Into tho law and
go over the matter with the Pollco Com
mission. If Council Bhoiild decide that the reso
lution was Illegally passed und lesclnd
it, the Pollco Commission probably will
drop the mntter and allow the blame for
failure to Increase the police forco to rest
on tho members of Council. Should tho
City Solicitor decide the resolution legal,
the chancos aro that the Police Commis
sion will stand by Its appointments.
The whole subject has stirred up bitter
feeling among the friends of the two
Pollco Commissioners Rid Chief of Po
lice Black on ono .side and tho friends
of tho members of City Council on the
other. Members of Council assert they
nre endeavoring to back General I. Pitssey
Wlckershnm, one of tho members of tho
commission. In his efforts to Improve the
Pollto Depattnlent, wlillo the other side
declares that the Interference of City
Council Is duo to a desire on the part
of some of the members to get even with
tho Chief of Police nnd prevent him hav
ing any choice In the selection of men
for the mounted squad winch Is to be
formed. The assertion Is made that the
Idea of having nn expert to examine the
police force and suggest changes and Im
provements was to get Chief Black out
of ofllce, nnd that after John tt. Taylor,
the Philadelphia expert, had declared that
Black was a good oliicer, but wits
liampcicd, his opponents proceeded to
get after him In some other way.

said that If he were elected and such a
bill came before hlul it would have his
Indorsement.
He declared himself In hearty sympathy
for better legislation fur the working man

terests of the greatest number. Whil '
