"It is most appropriate that this great meeting should take
place in Pennsylvania, the great1 arsenal of our Republic, and in
Independence Square, so intimately connected with the birth of
our nation.
"With our great President to guide me, I have been working hard
to avoid war during the last two years.
"He has done everything possible to maintain an honorable peace.
He only declared for war after exhausting every effort for peace.
The whole nation knows this and is united in sustaining him in his
new and difficult course.
"Uphold the President in his light for American rights and for
the democracy of the world."
Senator Johnson in his ringing5 address said he brought the message of the
West tor the men of the East, and the
the East; that it stands shoulder to shoulder with the East and that it will
follow the flag with the East. The Republic never retreats, he said.

Until the a o'clock "choo qhoo" steams
out of here headed north on Sunday night,
tho Phillies will be Joy riders, so to speak,
Instead of hardened or rapidly hardening
athletes. They wound up their practice
here today for the year, shortly nfter noon
with nothing to do the remainder of their
stay except to enjoy themselves. It was
a successful trip so far as the players are
concerned, as they could never have got
ten better training weather than they have
had this year. All are hoping they are not
struck out by a cold snap or a blizzard
on the way north, as has happened before
on barnstorming tours.
Pat had his entire squad of (lingers at
work this morning und nearly all of them
wero turned loose, firing horschlde projec
tiles at the batsmen. Tho latter swung
their BtlckB more often than they have
nt any drill here this season. It was such
a warm day for training that, any man
who couldn't get up a splejidld sweat would
have had to be a hopeless antmlc.
Instead of loading up his system with
medicine, Klllefer, who has a bad cold, put
on "a heavy sweater and worked behind
tho plate for more than half an hour.
When Klllefer left the neld he lokode as
though he had been In the steam room of a

Bancrdft was on the disabled list this
morning. He wasstlll suffering much trou

to bo yielding to treatment.
According to tne way Munager Moran
now sizes up the situation. Oscar Uugey
will be at second base when the Phillies
take the Held on opening day at Brooklyn
against the National League champions.

Under Socialist leadership, the reform
movement in Germany has inado further

movement for the inquiry Into domestic
reforms has the support of the National
Liberals as well as the Socialists.
The committee will begin Its work at

All reports from Germany t-liow that the
success of the Russian revolution is mak
ing Its Influence felt more and more in
the Kaiser's dominions. Tho junkers (the
Prussian military caste), aro vigorously op
posing the agitation for extension oC Ger

are counseling responsive action to this
"cry of the people."

STATE BOARD HEARS
ROADS IN RATE PLEA
Penns ylvania Representative
Tells Commission Expenses
Are Up $42,600,000 a Year
The need for a general advance in rall
.road freight rates on account of tho recent
increases In the costs of fuel, materials, la
bor and taxes, and the reduced efllclency of
labor, was explained in detail before tho
Public Service Commission of Pennsylvania
today at the Bellevuo-Stratford by George
D. Dixon, of the Pennsylvania Railroad.
The advance, said Mr. Dixon, should bo at
least 15 per cent in all class and coin
modlty freight rates and fifteen cents per
ton on bituminous coal, coko and ores.
Among the Items of Increased running
expenses of tho Pennsylvania Railroad
system for the current year over last year,
as estimated by Mr, Dixon, were the fol
lowing: Fuel' coal, $10,200,000 Increase;
materials and supplies, 111,000,000: wages
on account of tho Adamson law, J13.000,
000 Increase; wago adjustments for em
ployes other than trainmen, J7,00,000;
taxes, $600,000; making a total Increase
in operating expenses of 142,600,000 a year.
In regard to the reduced efficiency of
labor, Mr. Dixon Bald: "It lsthe experience
o the Pennsylvania Railroad that, even
with the Inreased ra'tes of pay, there Is a
constant change and unrest In the forces
of labor which reduces the efficiency and
production received per dollar expended."
Others who spoke before 'the commission
were, A. W. Thompson, of the Traffic De

rpHE great fitness of Independence
Sfluare for a mamoth patriotic

It seems to me that this meeting of

in the shadow of the historic building
dependence was proclaimed and with
in the shawod of the historic building
wherein the pioneers of American
liberty pledged their lives, fortunes

Your assembly beside the old

in a clarion note of profound en

barity in the cause of justice, equity,
civilization and liberty.
I believe that- to be the sentiment
of France nnd the French people,
perhaps about to see their ancient

recemented in a common resistance
against the monstrous German in
