McNichol - Vare Struggle
for Advantage in Mayor
alty Contest Enables
Governor to Force Pro

lUnniSDUHO, May K.-Tlio Oeneral
Assembly of 1015 tonlfflit wilt start upon
the Iftat week of Its work, but the history
of Its achievements atul Its Bins of omls
lon ns well Is now virtually completo
Ohly one biff piece of legislation remains
to bo enacted. That Ih workmen's com
pensntlon, nna It Is jrencrally conceded
that this measure will pass nnally, cither
tonlsht or tomorrow When that has
been done, only minor legislation and the
appropriation will remain to bo acted
upon boforo tho Legislature adjourns sine
dls next Thursday.
In tho moro "vital legislation, tho child
labor and the compensation acts, there Is
n rlnp of sincerity that Is mlsslnfr In the
nets of other assemblies so completely
controlled by tho Itcpubllcan Organisa
tion. A slnsulnr fact Is that on the really
Important questions of compensation and
child labor this Itcpubllcan Lexlslaturo
wrote Into the statutes of Pennsylvania
the very laws which tho Progressives and
Democrats were unable to enact two
years bko.
POLITICAL, EFFECT IN DOUBT.
In tho Important legislation, except
local option, tho Independent and pro
gressive forces In tho Itcpubllcan party
hfivo dominated. This has been due prin
cipally to the Philadelphia mayoralty
situation, which forced Senator McNichol
to Join with Senator Varo and help tha
latter forces the pannage of Governor
Brumbaugh's humanitarian legislation
through tho two houses.
The Governor used every avnllnblo
weapon to force through his program of
legislation, and failed In only ono attempt
because tho leaders of the two factions In
Philadelphia used tho Legislature to
"Jockey" for advantage In their contest
for naming tho next Republican can
didate for Mayor of Philadelphia.
The only real defeat surfered by tho
Governor, and the principal "sin of omls
elon" of this Legislature, was on the
local option Issue. The Philadelphia lead
era, by the antagonism of Bnator Mc
Nichol and the refusal ot Senator Varo
to support tho Chler Exccutivo in ms pet
piece of legislation, defeated local option
JUBt as they forced tho child labor and
compensation bills through this Republi
can Organization-controlled Legislature,
and thereby proved that they havo had
completo control of tho Assembly of 1915.
The, effect upon tho Republican party
of their advocacy qf Governor Brum
baugh's program of legislation remains to
bo disclosed. The Governor during his
local option flght gathered, probably per
manently, to tha standards of the Re
publican party most of the Independent
voters In tho Stnte. The pralso which the
humanitarians and "upllftera" hnvo for
the child labor and compensation acts
may, however, bo moro than offset If the
manufacturers nnd employers of Pennsyl
vania carry out threats they have made
to withdraw their support from tho Re
publican Organisation becausp of tho pas
ange of these Important rncasuies.

GOVERNOR SIGNS DAK
MOVIE CENSORSHIP BILL
New Lnw Hailed by Producers
as a Great Improvement Over
Former Statute.
HAP-niSBURG, May 17.-Tho Governor
today signed tho Dnlx Senate bill, which
Is iv substlluto for tho present moving
picture law and which reorganizes tho
censorship department nnd Increases Its
nativities.
The new law establishes n board of
thieo moving picture censors, an Incrsaso
of ono over the board ns now constituted.
Tho chairman Is to recolvn n salary of
JMCO, the vice chairman, J25O0, nnd the
secretary, J2IW a ear.
One of Ilia members of the board Is to
be a womhii.
Tho examination fco Is fixed nt 1 for
originals as well as duplicates, and tho
monoy is to be turned Into the State
Trpnsurs-.
The bill Is the result of an effort of tho
moving picture operators of tho State to
have tho law of 1911 repealed. It piovldcs
a wider scope of powers than tho old net
permitted nnd advertising is put to somo
extent under tho icgulatlons of the new
hoard.
The law reaulreH n report annually to
tho Governor, Instead of to the Secretary
of Internnl Affairs nnd provide") for tho
nppolntmcnt of two clerkq nnd two sten
ographqrs, a chief InapoV.T, six Inspec
tors, four operators an nsslstnnt opera
tor, a film patchcr and two messengers.
Projection rooms nnd olllces are to bo
maintained In Philadelphia, but tho
board may havo other olllces whero
needed.
Tho announcement of the signing by
the Governor of the Dnlx censorship bill
was received with enthusiasm by the
various film men in this city. It Is tho
final step In the ling fight thoy have
been making for a radical change In cen
sorship methods In Pennsylvania. They
feel that the new system Is not only
fairer, hut the eavjiyr in money will bo
considerable. Under tho Dalx bill thcro
is a direct reduction In tho llcenso fee
for each film of a dollar and a half, and
thn distributors are saved tho expense of
maintaining a projection pallor, which Is
now assumed by the Stnte.
J. Lou lu Breltinger, chief censor under
tho superseded law, nnd who was instru
mental In having It passed, refused to
commerlt on the new law.

TWO BOYS LOSE LIVES
WHEN CANOE CAPSIZES
Youths Drowned in Schuylkill
in Full View of Helpless
Hundreds.
Two homes are darkened today because
ot a tragedy which was enacted before
hundreds of helpless spectators on tho
banks ot tho Schuylkill, near Strawberry
Mansion, yesterday nfternoon. Two
youths were drowned, tho one whllo at
tempting to savo tho other, when an
overcrowded canoe capsized. Their two
companions wero rescued.
The dead boys were Otto Keebler, 17
years old. 13D0 North S3th street, and
Charles Muska, 17 years old, 113 South
DOth street. In company with Anthony
lilldebrand, 19 years old, of 12H North
Hlth Htreet. owner of the canoe, and
Frederick Henger, 17 years old, of S017
Harper street, the boys spent their Sun
day holiday at their clubhouse, the Bel
mont Canoe Club. Although It Is against
the Falrmount park regulations to carry
moro than three persons In a ennoe, the
four boys decided on a trip in Illlde
brand'a new canoe up past Peter's Island.
In the west channel of the river tho
waveB dashed over the gunwalo of the
Jieavy-laden canoe, and threatened to
capsize It The boys made, for shore, very
much frightened. When a heavier swell
than usual struck the craft, Keebler,
panic-stricken, stood up. The canoe
turned turtle, throwlnsr all four Into tho
"water. Bhouts from spectators on the
bank attracted the attention of tho crew
ot the police boat Rescue, which was
nearby, and the boat put on full speed.
Keebler could not swim. Knowing this,
Muska, who was near him, made for
his side. Keebler seized him and both
went down lilldebrand and Henger
swam to the upturned canoe and wero
picked up by the Rescue. Keebler's body
was recovered In five minutes and a
pulmotor was applied, but he could not
be revived. The river surrendered Muska' s
body 40 minutes later.

Jersey City Minister, Former Phila
delphian, Congratulated.
Jersey City ministers nnd members of
his congregation today congratulated the
Rev. W. Gordon Jones, a former Phlla
delphlan, now pastor of the North Baptist
Uliurcn or Jersey city, who was vin
dicated by tho Hudson County Grand
Jury of charges brought against him by
a girl.
When the Grand Jury began on Satur
day the Investigation ot the charges,
made two months ago, the girl recanted
her story and the case was dismissed.
Members of the Ministerial Union of Jer
sey City had adopted resolutions express
ing confidence when the charges first
were made. There Is mueh rejoicing to
day among members of the North Baptist
Church, nnd the officials have decided
to grant Doctor Jones a long leave of
absence for recuperation after the strain.
Governor Says Measuro Would Leave
State Without Protection.
HARniSBUnG, May 17.-Tho Clark Sen
ate bill repealing tho cold storage law of
1913 was today vetoed by Governor Brum
baugh. Tho Governor gave as his reason
that. In tho absence of n substitute, it
would Itnvc tho public entirely without
safeguard.
"This is a direct roflealcr of the net of
May 15, 1913," says tho Governor In his
message, "generally referred to as tho
cold storage repealer. The argument ad
vanced In Its favor nro that the law Is
too drastic and thnt It Is of no benefit to
the public, To repeal the present law
would be to leavo tho people without pro
tection from unwholesomo food and with
no safeguard against fraud and decep
tion In the sale of cold storage food.
Only harm nnd confusion would follow.
If the piesent law Is, as alleged, not
what It should be, tho plain duty Is to
amend It and make It right. To repeal It
Is to shift the alleged unfairness from
the dcnleis to tho people. Two wrongs
do not mako a right. Tho Commonwealth
Is anxious to foster, to protect, to en
courago nil legitimate activity of Its mer
chants and businessmen, but It Is In a
commanding way determined not to per
mit knowingly any haim to come to Kb
people."
Tho Governor also vetoed the Mc
Nichol Scnnto resolution calling for tho
investigation of the feasibility of con
structing a ship canal from Philadelphia
across New Jersoy to the Atlantic sea
board. A United States Army Commis
sion is In charge of such an enterprise,
says the Governor in explanation of his
action, and survoys havo been made and
teaulta published much along the samo
lino as tho resolution calls for.
Other bills votoed today wero:
Thomas bill, rouulrlng bourds of visitors to

Tompkins Hcnalo bill to allilate certain
divorce, because the Governor says, "It seems
unnecessary to extend the power of affidavits
In divorce to aldermen and magistrates; It Is
nil too easy now to secure a divorce. This
iblll would enlarge the field of easy endeavor
and Is therefore not In the interests of tha
homes of our people."
Lynch Onnte bill to refund notary fees to
Clurcncc Ilalcntlne of Hcranton
Charles S. Calwell, president of tho
Corn Kxchnnge Bank, and a most ardent
advocate of the repealer, said today that
tho Governor's reasons for vetoing tho
bill would seem to Indicate that he would
not take Unfavorable iictlon against the
uniform cold storage bill which has al
ready passed tho Senate and Is now be
fore the lower House. He said that tho
uniform law would protect tho citizens
of the State In ample fasten, and at tho
same time not place such unfair re
strictions on the dealers as to seriously
handicap competition between thoi In
terested In cold storage Jn this State and
those similarly Interested In other States.
