iTollowInK the storm of protest aroused
over hi "liundred-bllllon-doilar peace
speech," JohnWunamaker has resigned thn
chulrmnnshlp of (ho Philadelphia braneli
of the National Security league. The res
ignation was accepted at a meeting of
the.Executlye and Membership Commit
tee at the Union League, after Mr, Wnn
amaker had delivered an address explain
ing that the wide publicity of the peace
ptch had tended to confuse tho real
Issue before the league and might em
barrass the progress of the organltatlon.
Mr. Wanamnker did not resign his mem
bership In the league, however, and'prpm
Ued to support it morally and financially,
as well as to do his utmost to further any
plan to safeguard this country from at
tack. In explaining his address of IftRt
Thursday at the Racquet Club, Mr, Wan
amaker dented that his Idea In wishing
a. practical embargo on arms and ammuni
tions shipped to Europe was Intended as
a, pro-German utterance, It being his sole
desire to stop the greatest slaughter
known In the history of the world. At the
conclusion of the meeting Mr. Wanamaker
aid:
"I fear I may have been misunderstood
In the speech I made whon I accepted the
office of honorary chairman of this
league. Boms persons were so over
whelmed by the flguro of a hundred
billions that they couldn't see anythlnr
else. It l an enormous sum, but It Isn't
too much to pledge to bring honorable
peace out of this awful war.
"This nation Isn't going to pay that
sum or any sum to any Powsr on earth,
But this nation can put its vast credit to
the extent of a hundred billions, If neces
cary, at the service of peace, to help the
warring nations get together with an as
surance that a settlement can be made,
and that the devastated countries can gp
to work to rs.sstakllsh their agriculture
and Industries and commerce and pay oft
their war debt. Unless some such assur
ance be given, any peace negotiations
would bo utile and the devastation or
war would go on needlessly for months
after the belligerents themselves wanted
peace.
"That was the meaning of my hundred
billion dollar speech. My only thought
was peace for these afflicted countries.
"And I believe that tho people of this
nation after thinking It over will sco that
Bomo such move would give a tremendous
Impetus to peace nt this time."
Mr. Wanamaker also showed that the
falsing of $100,000,000,000 for such a, pur
chase would not bo an Impossibility by
submitting a letter from Pavid S, Beach,
of Bridgeport, Conn., who has formulated
th World's Liquidating and Refunding
Company, a concern operating on an In
surance basis. The latter assured Mr.
"Wanamaker that the sum referred to
could be raised by the people of this
country through the new concern.
Following Mr. Wannmaker'e resigna
tion from the chairmanship of the Nation
Al Security League, Colonel Theodore E.
vwiedershelm was elected to the office
ftnd George Wharton Pepper was elected
Vice chairman. Robert Morris was chosen
as secretary; Arthur K, NewbolJ. treas
urer, and Percy H. Clark, chairman of
the Membership Committee. Tho elec
tion to the Executive Committee resulted
as follows: Charles Blddle, J. Campbell
GUmore and Isaac W. Roberts. The local
committee wllj have representatives on
the General Executive Committee of the
Rational Securl(,y League.
The Jitney situation Is rapidly reaching
a climax. The fight over the Injunction
against the ordinance Is nothing com
pared to the fights now raging In the
ranks of the Jltneymen. Two associations
are battling for the premiere place. Any
move that one makes for the good of the
Jitney la promptly counteracted by the
other. Not only are the two associations
In a determined fight for the extermina
tion of each other, but each la torn and
weakened by fights, "revolutions" and
general disorder nmong their own mem
bers. The present outlook seems to Indicate
that there never will be a hearing on the
SOth of September, for If tho present
trouble is not quelled the associations win
crumble. The Jltneymen do not seem to
rcallxo that thry have the city to con
tend with, and that If thgy do not unite
and present a solid front when the com
ing battle arrives they will lose.
The Auto Service Association, which got
tho Injunction through Its counsel, former
Mayor Weaver, is having serious troubles
of late, go is the Philadelphia Jitney
Association. Members have openly re
belled at the slx-for-a-quarter strip tick
ets, which wero put on the street less
than a week urn The majority of the
drivers not only'refuso to sell the tickets,
but will not take them for fares, This, of
course, has aroused the Indignation of tho
riding public and the association Is losing
many of Its friends.
SPECIAL MEETING CALLED.
Tho trouble over tho tickets became
so serious that a special meeting was
called by the board of directors of the
Auto Strvlco Association. The meeting ;
was held In secret and newspapermen
were excluded, was learned, how
ever, that nn ultimatum was drawn up
to be presented to every Jitney driver In
tho city, Including the Philadelphia Jit
ney Association and Indeoendents. The
Ultimatum stated that n meeting of tho
association will be held on Friday at
the Parkway Building. It furthermore
slated that If every Jttneymon In the
clly. Independents and members of rival
organizations, did not attend the meeting
una como to mrms wun mo Auto service
Association, the association would let tho
present Injunction lapse, making the or
dinance valid and driving the Jitneys ofT
the streets.

MUST SHOW GOOD FAITH.
The ultimatum stated that the associa
tion has already had enough trouble with
the strip tickets, and that If tho Jltney
men did not back up the association In
this movement and support the tickets
they would dissolve the Injunction,
straighten up their affairs and wthdraw
from business. Tho association must file
a bond to show good faith to (he courts
and for the payment of the trial In case
It loses,
The bond Is for $2690 and Is due now.
The money- has not been raised nor has
the security been obtained, said ono of the
ofllclals. In the event of tho bond not
being filed the Injunction becomes Invalid,
say the omclals, and the ordinance will
be enforced. Ofllclals of the association
said today that If they remove the In
junction there won't be a Jitney running
after two weeks.
Two ofllclals of the Auto Service re
signed today. They said they were dls
satlsfled with the way the association
was being run. Charges of graft and mis
appropriation of fundB have been flying
back and forth among the officials for
some time. A. C. Haupt, the secretary
of the organization, leaves when ho
straightens out his books. John Darren,
the night clerk, jilso resigned, to take
effect Saturday.
une or the omclals of the association
said that since the strip tickets took ef
fect the men were not paying their dues,
as they had lost oil Interest, He said
that approximately 30 out of the 600 mem
bers of the association were accepting
and selling the tickets. Charges of too
much expense were also hurled at tho
omclals. The association has a payroll
of 13 a week. A booth for tickets, which
according to on official wos not needed,
was erected In the office at an expense
of $6?i. With the dues falling off and ex
penses growing, the men say something
will have to be. done quickly.
The Fhllaldelphlo. Jitney Association,
according to reports, is also having
trouble. It was reported on good author
ity that B. Scott Rlckards. a member nt
tho Board of Directors, and President
Costello had a serious row. This was
denied by Costello,
The end of thlB week Is expected to de
velop a series of whirlwind event"'. Sev
eral meetings of the various associations
wilt be held. What action the combined
Jitney drivers will take about the ulti
matum cannot be surmised, but It Is ex.
pected something Interesting will happen.

The Department of Justice began an In
quiry Into the legality of recruiting work
Ingmen of this city for British munition
factories today, coincident with the sail
ing from New qYrk "pf thp American llnor
Arabic, bearing K Philadelphia metal
workers destined to work In England's
munition factories and shipyards.
United States District Attorney Francis
Fisher Kono sold today that the engage
ment of workmen by British agents was
not p, violation of neutrality, the grounds
on which the Department of Justice took
action.
"While many persons believe that
furnishing workmen for British factories
violates the spirit of neutrality, the law
is silent on that subject," he said. He
quoted the sections covering neutrality,
which forbid under penalty of heavy line
and imprisonment the accepting of "a
commission to serve a foreign prince,
State, colony, district or nomilR In wnr.
by land or sea" or enlistment "as a sol
dier or as a marine or seaman." Workmen
do not come under this law, he said.
'Information concerning the activities of
British agents In this city during tholaBt
few days was forwarded to Washington
today. Tho fact that munition workers
aro as necessary to the British Govern
ment at tho present time as are soldiers
i expected to bear weight.
The mysterious "Mister Wallace," who
took charge of applicants for positions
as .metal workers In England, has disap

streets, whore he conducted examinations
yesterday, after being requested to leavo
Kugler's Hotel, nt 741 Spring Garden
street, It was said today that he had re
turned to Canada. Several workmen In
search of him applied at the omcS of tho

tion as to when he will return. It la not
known If there will be further recruiting
In this city.

HARRISnURG, July 28.-R. V. Marye,
of New York, general counsel for tho
Be)j Telcpliuno Cpmpany, resumed before
(he Public Service Commission today the
argument In tho matter of the tentative
uniform telephone rates submitted by tho
commission. He devoted most of his
time to a discussion and explanation of
the testimony regarding plant value and
other financial factors, which. It Is the
contention of the Bell Company, should
figure In determining rates in this State.
One of the points he sought to bring out
Is that telephone plants, leaving all idea
of good will out of consideration, are
worth more than the amount that it
Would cost to reproduce them.
At one point Commissioner l'ennypacker
Interrupted to ask how tho commissions
tentative rates compare with existing
ra,tes of the Bell Companyaln this State,
and wob told that the commUslon's rates
were so incomplete that the telephone
companies do not know how to adjust
their rates to them.
Tho best they can dp Is to guess at It
and on that basis, it la their opinion,
tho commission ratos would wipe out the
prosent net proiu.
Commissioner Pennypacker also asked
a number of questions, with a view to
getting a direct statement from the tele
phone company's attorney on tho Justice
and vnluo of the Commission's popula
tion basis for vato making. In his opin
ion, population is. likely to.be nearest
to a corroct method, because It Is Im
possible to put It on a basis of county or
city lines or unon any other arb trnrv
method, To this, Sir, Marye replied that I
ii s impossiDie 10 mane any one thlpg
the bijsls for telephone rates with any
hope of making them equitable. As for
the population basis, he called attention
to the fact that while the telephone was
flrst publicly exhibited In this Btate nt
the Centennial Exposition, the State
ranks well down tho list In the matter
of the use of the telephone In propor
tion to population.

missionary work.
Continued from rage One
worker averaged sllfthtly in excess of 10
week, accordion to matlstlcs. The Phil
ndeljthlA worker averaged M week.
The figures tor thto city are based on
the wages paid per hour. Those techni
cally classed as machinists received from
tm cents to cents an hour. Tool
makors, classified as Jlg-andflxlure
mepi and die-makers, received from 36
to 40 cenbi and from 0 to to cents an
hour, according to the specialization re
quired by their work. To this Is added
the premium for overtime work, generally
one and a half and two times the regular
rate.
Since the jsreat demand for munition
In England, the wages now being paid,
according to the-offer outdo workmen1 of
this city by British agents, are 19 cents
an hour, which, figuring 61 hours a week,
makes a weekly wage of $10.46, or about
the samo as before tho war. Added to
this are the Government bonus and tho
premlifms for overtime work. Since the
war began many plants In this city are
reported to have Increased their wages.
The Remington Arms Company recently
Is reported to have engaged a largo num
ber of men, machinists and toolmakers,
at 60 centls an hour, with a $l-a-day
bonus and other premiums. Other plants
aro reputed to be paying 4S cents regularly.
TJie cost of Hvlnar In unsland. accord
ing to statistics. Is approximately half
thpt of Philadelphia. Tho money which
tho workman In the City of Brotherly
Love spends for the necessities of life
woujd support two workmen In "England.
But the British mechanic does not live
half, as well as his equal In this city,
tho standard of living being conversely
In the same ratio as the cost of living.
In no city In England do thJ workmen
own as many homes as do the workmen
of Philadelphia, who have made of this
community a "City of Homes."
Philadelphia presents a seeming para
dox' In that its workmen aro tho most
poorly paid In tho country and yet tho
most prosperous In the world. The say

exceed those of any other city,

Fallacies
FACT is a real state of things. FALLACY is an appar
ently genuine but really illogical statement or argument.
THE FALLACY of prohibition is very sanely shown by. a recent
crticlc entitled "An Englishman's Experience of Temperance
Reform' written by Cecil Chesterton. His views are well worth
the reading,
SAYS Mr, Chesterton; "One dogma common to all schools of
Temperance Reformers' in England Is that the way to reduce
drunkenness is to reduce the number o! 'facilities for drinking.' It
was useless to meet this dogma by an appeal to human experience,
an every educated and traveled man knew it. It was useless to
point out -that in those places, which, according tc this theory,
ought -to be given over to a continual debauch of alcoholism ,fn
Paris, where whole streets consist of nothing but a Jong row of
facilities': in the small French country tpwns, where theMnqulring
tranger Is perplexed as to bow any pf the cafes can pay, since
everyone in the town seems to keep one that it vas Just in such
