DRINKERS CARELESS
Manufacturers Declare
Drink Lessens Efficiency
of Employes and Contrib-
' utes to Accidents.
BIb business In Philadelphia, liaa out
lawed rum.
Manufacturers here, nt a tlmo when
flBhtlng nations declare liquor has no
place In war, add their testimony that It
lias no placo In peace
Drinking Increases the number of In
dustrial accidents, decreases eulclcncy and
lessens reliability, according to executives
of somo of the largest enterprises In In
dustrial Philadelphia.
Alba B. Johnson, president of the Bald
win Locomotive Works, went so far as
to say, when nsKcd his opinion today,
that no manufacturer can consistently
advocate measures for continuing the cale
of Uauor whllo discriminating against
men who use It, as n majority of employ
ers of labor do,
"Every manufacturer," said Mr. John
non, "has a strong Interest In promoting
sobriety among his employes. Tho de
velopment or modern Industry has
brought with It tho "so of complicated
machinery and powerful forces such as
steam and electricity, which must bo con
trolled by men of tho highest skill and
having the full uso of all their faculties.
"Kor this reason manufacturers as a
Tule havo adopted stringent regulations
against tho uso of liquor during work
ing hours and havo been led to glvo pref
erence of employment to men known to
bo free- from tho liquor habit."
It would bo markedly Inconsistent for
such employers, ho pointed out, to coun
tenance las which permit alcoholic
drinks to bo" sold. ,jj
ACCIDENTS DUB TO DRINK.
An executive omccr of tho William
Crnmp & Son Ship and Englno Building
Company declared that a largo propor
tion of Industrial accidents nro caused
becauso men havo been drinking nnd
that tho growth of employers' liability
legislation may compel large employers
of labor to refuse to give work to any
one who drinks.
Tho views of llalncs, Jones & Cadbury,
manufacturers of plumbers' supplies,
wero explained by tho general manager,
J, JI. Borton, who said: Our company
has not suffered greatly from tho uso of
liquor nmong employes, because we hnve
weeded out tho nlcohollcally Inclined. Wo
had to, becauso In a factory filled with
flying Wheels and exposed bolting, the
worker who Is not alert Is In great dan
ger of being Injured.
"I am told by an officer of tho American
Steel nnd Wire Company." ho continued,
"that that concern has eliminated drink
ers wherever possible, becauso of the acci
dents which occurred among tho men who
uso alcohol. Ho told mo that It was In
some of their plants almost linposslblo to
start work on Monday mornings, becauso
of tho number of over-Sunday 'Jags.' Tho
Steel and Wlro people found that moro
accidents occurred on Mondajs than any
other day of tho week, followed by Tues
day nnd Wednesday. They ascribed tho
preponderance to tho rosults of drinking."
At tho J. G. Brill Company an ofllccr
said that tho policy of his company hns
always been to opposo liquor on tho
ground that It reduces efficiency nnd re
liability. "Tho non-drlnklng mnn has all
ways been preferred by us," ho said. "Wo
have hail a perpetual ombargo on alco
hol." John & James Dobson, carpet manu
facturers, are one of 40 manufacturers
In tho Industrial section of Mnnayunk
and Roxborough who nro working for
local option by bringing prcssuro to bear
on members of tho Legislature. Tho Key
stone Boiler Works, Richard Hay & Son
and the Frccland Manufacturing Com
pany are others.

C0UNCHMEN DEFY
HOUSING MANDAMUS
Order for Organization of New
Division Does Not Perturb
City Fathers.
Members of Councils nro not greatly
perturbed today over the possibility of
their being held In contempt of court,
for Ignoring the mandamus issued ono
month ago by Common Picas Court No. 6,
to compel tho establishment of tho
municipal division of housing and sanl
tatfon under the net of 1911. The writ of
mandamus expires today.
Nothing was done, however. In tho mat
ter today at City Hall. John H. Fow,
attorney for tho tenement liouso owners,
who obtnlned nn extension of tho manda
mus 30 dajs ago, conferred with Judge
aiartlu In Common Picas Court No. 6,
but did not make application for a fur
ther extension. Assistant City Solicit' r
Lowcngrund said that some notion might
bo tnken later In tho day.
The Councllmcn nro complacent nnd
confident that one of n number of chances
will turn up to relieve them of any possi
bility of aircst on a contempt charge.
Tho main chnnco upon which they de
pend Is that tho court will grant them
another extension of tlmo thnt will over
come tho embarrassment occasioned by
Governor Brumbaugh's refusal to tako
ofllclal cognlzanco of tho "toothless" hous
ing measure boforo a public hearing Is
given opponents of tho bill.
Councllmen point out that there Is llttlo
likelihood of their being held, collectively
or individually, responsible for inactivity
on the housing mntter, that tho net of
1913 designates only tho presidents of the
two chambers of Councils nnd that they
only could bo held responsible. Further,
It is nsserted that new members of
Councils have been elected since the hous
ing measures were passed by the Legis
lature and that they could not bo held
responsible.
Governor Brumbaugh has announced
that hearings on tho pending repealer
bills may bo held on Thursday or Friday
of this week. Advocates of housing re
forms In Philadelphia's congested sec
tions will then appear at Harrlsburg to
urgo tho veto of tho pending measures.
DR. RICHMOND LEAVES CITY

Doctor Richmond said Inst night thcro
would bo no election, nu ho would bo
out of the city on n visit to a parishioner.
Judgo Forguson last week ordered the
election to tako placo today, but Doctor
Richmond denied that his leaving tho city
would be an evasion of tho Inw. The,
courts hnvNj ordered that the vestrymen
of tho church refrain from contributing
cl)urch funds to pay for the rector's
defense. Somo of his parishioners evaded
this yesterday by voluntary contributions
of several hundred dollars. Members of
tho Sunday school gava moro than $100.

unable to check tho onrush of tho

Tho evangelist chose "Regeneration" ns
his topic Inst night, using tho text:
"Marvel not that 1 said unto thee, 'Ye

quotation as a basis for a scathing at
tack on thoso who mantaln that they mny
bo saved merely by living u Christian
life without being "reborn" In tho Chris
tlan faith.
"I don't caro whether ou nro cultured,

"If you are nil this and have never

Of Jesus Christ ou will bo eternally

GUMMERE ACCUSED OF
FAVORING "INTERESTS"
New Jersey Senator Asks Gov
ernor Not to Reappoint Su
preme Court Justice.
Charges that tho Public Service Corpo
ration and "other privileged Interests" are
actively backing Chief Justlco Gummore,
of tho New Jersey Supremo Court, nro
mado in a letter which was sent to Gov
ernor Fielder, of New Jersey, today, pro
testing against tho reappointment of Jus
tice Gummerc, by Senator Charles O'Con
nor Hennessy, of Bergen Count. Ho as
serts that the Justice's career "from the
time ho left tho employ of tho Pennsyl
vania Railroad has been always In favor
of property rights."
Mr. Honnessy lays emphasis on the fact
that ho raises no question of tho Integ
rity of Justlco Gummcre, but declares
that "no ono can fall to note his bias
for privileged lntorcsts and the significant
nnd invariable consistency with which he
leans to tho side of so-called property
rights when they conflict with human
rights.
"HIh support of tho late remarkable
decision In the 50-ccnt gns case, which. If
sustained, would effectively destroy the
power to rcgulnto tho service rates of
public utilities, Is n Into evidence of his
bent of mind. His famous decision dur
ing his early service on tho bench thnt
tho llfo of a child, killed by a trolley car
In Jersey City, could not bo valued by tho
Jury at moro than six cents, may havo
accorded with a brutal legalism, as is
alleged by his defenders, but I cannot
find this or any other excuso for the cx-j
irnoruinary pari which no took on two
notoblo occasions In Newark (according
to statements mado to inn by responsible
citizens). In (protecting the Public Scrvlco
Corporation against the Just consequences
of its crlmlnnl neglect of duty."
Mr, Hennessy describes tho Clifton ave
nuo tragedy 11 years ago, when eight girls
and a boy on their way to school lost
their lives nnd many others wero crippled
bv a colllsllon between a trolley car In
which they wero riding nnd a Lacka
wanna train.
"It is Known that the Grand Jurv
nought to bring Individual Indictments
ngalnst tho directors of the corporation,"
ho says, "nnd thnt Judgo Gummcro sent
for the Grand Jury nnd mado a long argu
ment to them against Indictments. An
indictment was, nevertheless, found
ngalnst four men of great wealth, wlio
wore nt thnt tlmo tho cccutlvo committee
of tho tiolley company. One of these
men was, I bellci, the president of tho
Pennsylvania It.illro.ul Company, which
had formerly employed .Mr. Gummerc.
When they enmo to trial for man
slaughter somo months later, Justlco
Gummcro directed the Jury to acquit these
men."

What
Every
Mother
Knows
It is the pang of parting
when "her boy" matricu
lates into manhood.
It is the severance of the
last ties which somehow"
seem to bind the short
trousered lad to Mother's
heart as the babe whom
she has nurtured!
Then comes the Great
Divide when he dresses
"just like Dad K
We have set ourselves
to preserve both for him
and for her in these
"Junior Special" Suits, the
boyish lines she loves.
They make a man of
him without robbing him
of the charm of youth;
they give him what he
wants, without depriving
him altogether of what his
Mother prizes!
