' SCHOOL CHILDREN TO AID NEW LOAN I I f Will Be Organized for Serv- ice in Fourth Liberty Campaign EAGER TO SHARE WORK 'Doubt if We Could Keep . Them Out," Says Associate Superintendent Nusbaum ONE-DAY IIDCRir LOAN Future liberty Loans will be floated In n single ilny. Tills Is (he prediction of John It. Mason, president of the Commercial Trust Company. Speaking- at n dinner of the fourth"" Liberty Loan commltteo of the Ileal Estate Hoard, in the Dellevne-Strat-ford last nlg-lit, he prophesied the fifth loan would be disposed of In a week, the sixth in forty-eight hours and the seventh In one day. "When thirteen million men reclster for the draft in day," he said, "It' Is not too much to hope that before long; millions of patriots wilt step up and In one day take their quota of Liberty Dondi." School children of Philadelphia will i bo organized for Liberty Loan campaign work similar to that done during the third loan, despite the adverso sentiment , of most members of the Pennsylvania women's Liberty Loan committee, cx- pressed In tho conference yesterday. I "The children have done splendid , work In threo loans, and I doubt serl , ously.lf we could keep them out of this If we tried' said Louis Nusbaum. asso- elate superintendent of schools. In charge of the organization of the school children. "They are just as patriotic . and eager to do their share nn the adults, and they feel they are actually , doing something tangible for their coun . try In getting Liberty Loan subscrlp . tlons. Of tho S15.GD3.430 worth of sub scrlptlons turned In by school children T In the last loan, $12,500,000 were ob tained by grade school children." ( While there was no motion or regu lation made on the question at the con , ference of State Liberty Loan women , workers, It was the general opinion of all those who discussed It that the children's work caused more or less con- fusion. The greatest complaint was the duplication of effort. Children, the women complained, went promiscuously to business houses or homes to solicit Then when the adult committee mem bers went to their assigned work they met the reply, "I havo already been' i solicited by half a dozen children." I "It was because of this comolalnt." ' explained Mr. Nusbaum, "that the pub Jf lie and parochial schools were put this , time under tho direction of the women's committee. I believe much of the dunll. cation will thus be eliminated. ; Work for Trevlous Loans "However, I know the children last i time obtained many subscriptions which otherwise would have been overlooked. .I know In many neighborhoods they so- ' llelted the domestic servants and ob tained many subscriptions. Then there are both men and women who give more gladly and generously to children. "As to confusion In the turning in ot ' reports from th children and lost sub- ". scrlptlons, I am sure there was no such complaint In Philadelphia, t consulted several bankers on the question Just re. . cently. While many of the people who subscribed last time failed to lift their bonds, they Bald the larger per cent of " these were among subscriptions turned . In by adults. Children In Philadelphia i were Instructed to take no money what ; ever In the Liberty Loan campaign, ' They merely obtained the subscription and turned In to their teacher or prin cipal the signed subscription blanks." Mrs. E. T. Stotesbury has been named chairman of the public schools commit tee of the women's Liberty Loan cam paign committee, and Bhe has as her aides Dr. Lucy L. Wilson, principal of the Southern High School for Girls : ,Mtss Beula.li Fenlmore, principal of the .Kensington High School for Girls; Miss ? Margaret McGuIre, principal of the Mc i Call School : Dr. Maud B. Mansche, prin cipal of the West Philadelphia High School for Girls, and Miss Helen ' Flelsher. Soldiers to Launch Drive Soldiers from Camp Meade will launch the fourth Liberty Loan drive In this city one week from Saturday. A battalion of the khakl-clad youths from the Lafayetto Division about 1200 In all will parade on the opening da of the campaign, coming here on a ie clal train from the big Maryland can tonment' ' Announcement by E.

Agents of le Department of Justice are gradually 'driving these profiteers, out of business, 'It was stated. " A feature of the campaign will be a "contest for the naming of ten American 'armored tanks. The ten counties having Jthe largest percentage of subscriptions 'will be given the honor.

The military touch was also much In evidence with the Allied flags waving In the breeze, British, French and Amer ican army officers acting as Judges and a squadron of rough riders from Camp Dix provldllng the mg thrill of the exhi bition. True to tradition, the first day weather was perfect, after n damp and foggy dawn, and the crowd was really worthy of the name 'a ery unusual thing for the curtain-raiser. Things ran off like clockwork, thanks to the combined efforts of the executive committee and Its many able assistants. It. Penn Smith, who had begged oft the Job of master of ceremonies, held By him at this Bhow for many, many years, found the urge too strong, and was on hand bright and early. Smith Prlie Horses He was Immediately pressed Into ser lcc In a Bort of ex-ofllclo capacity. Mr. Smith has recently bought a new farm near Unlonvllle, which he has named Penn Manor, and has been so busy fixing up the place he figured he would not have time to sparo for this show. When the tlmo came he Just couldn't stay away, as he put It, and, besides snowing up himself, he brought a fine string of horses with him. This war horse show Is a bit different from its peace-time predecessors, In that It has many "added attractions" to catch tho pennies of the spectators. Candy, toys, smokes and a cafeteria were among them. Incidentally a dog Is also on top, held In a tent not far from the tan bark ring, whero the thorough breds are put through their paces. Colonel Percy Herbert, one of the Judges of the hunters, represented the British remount commission; Lieutenant Gaston Bay, of the French remount com mission, helped to Judge the harness horses and ponies, while Lieutenant Colonel McBrlstol, chief of the American remount division, was one of the trio who gauged the merits of tho timber toppers. As further proof of the International savor. It may be mentioned that Lady Reading Is a patroness of the exhibition. aB aro also Mrs. Newton D. Baker, wife of tho Secretary of War; Mrs. Josephus Daniels, wife of the Secretary of the Navy, and Lady Grant, wife of Admiral Grant, head of the British naval commls- slon to the United States. Girl Scouts Busy So varied were the attractions that It was difficult to "take them all in." The Girl Scouts, commanded by Miss Ellen Mary Cassatt, were busily engaged In keeping the grounds In condition, and a number of society girls, unaer the lead ership of Miss Mary Brown Warbur ton, were here, there and everywhere In their smart Emergency Aid aide cos tumes, selling cigarettes, candles and flowers. A most attractive booth, filled with toys of all descriptions and topped with a wide umbrella, was presided over by Mrs. Victor Mather, who was wearing one of the new terracotta high-crowned cloth hats, faced with deep blue, which accentuated tho color of her eyes. Mrs. Antelo Devereux was assisting Mrs. Ma ther. Tlmft war when thft women wore "gowns" and "frocks" to the horse Bhow, but now everything Is uniform. It may be blue, trimmed with red, as In the Emergency Aid aide costume, or it may be the blue and leather of the National League for 'Women's Service, with the smart service cap-shaped hats. Which ever it Is. it is worn and very smartly worn at that.

COPS' PAY BOOST FACES NEW DELAY Mayor and Safety Director Wilson Absent as Coun cils Reconvene MAY INTRODUCE BILL Gaffney Could Offer Pro posed Ordinance With Fig ures Omitted With both tho Major and S-'afety Di rector Wilson out of the city, there was P considerable doubt when Councils con vened this nfternoon whether the police men's pay Increase bill would bo Intro duced. Both the Mayor and Director Wilson made promises to tho policemen that they would go before Councils nt the first fall session and urge provision for pay Increases, hut tho sole hopo of Its Introduction this afternoon when the meeting opened lay In Chairman Goff ney. of the Finance Committee. It wns pointed out that the finance chairman, who will Introduce, by re quest, a firemen's pay-Increase bill, pre pared by tho Firemen's Bene'flclal Asso ciation, can Introduce a blank lull for the policemen's Increase and fill It In later. Mayor Smith and Director Wilson are said to be attending a golf tournament. It had been plnnncd, It I said, to dis pose of tho policemen's Increase In fore the November election ,hut this now seems Improbable. Police and fire Increases, If allowed, will date back to July 1. Policemen now get $3 and $3.50 a day, according to length of service. To Increase the pay of members of the Bureau of Fire to a point satisfac tory to men nnd officers would cost the city at least $270,000, nnd this may undergo some paring before final ap proval by the Finance Committee. The scale desired would boost battalion chiefs from $2100 to $2100, captains from $1500 to $1800, lieutenants from $1400 to $1700, steam engineers from $1350 to $1650, drivers and chauffeurs from $1300 to $1600, hosemen, according to term of service, from $1000 to $1500. The one Important report scheduled for early submission Is the one com plied by Councils' special committee on rent profiteering. It will Include a resume of the evidence presented to the Federal authorities at Washington. Mayor Smith will send In a eto of tho bill to buy land for $12,000 adjoin ing the Lnrdncr's Point pumping station on the ground that It Is not essential nnd will notify Councils that, although ho some time ago signed the $1,200,000 temporary loan bill, the measure need not bo put In effect, as there is plenty of money in the treasury to meet cur rent demands. Director Krusen will repeat his de mand for $100,000 to pay bills for the care of the city's Insane at the Norrls town Asylum. Ho will also ask for $50,000 to do the phimblng at Byberry, which tho contracting firm ot William McCoach, Jr., failed to perform. Other financial measures provide $7000 for the Bureau of Water, $12,000 for the Board of Registration and $19,000 for the County Commissioners.

After referring to the long service of Mr. Davis in the House nnd prais ing his personal qualities, Mr. Gillette Bald: "I must say frankly that I havo not entertained very highly many of tho appointments mado by this Adminis tration. I had hoped a Republican might have been appointed, ns evi dence that politics haa adjourned, but I can think of no appointment that will give more satisfaction on both sides of this House than that of Mr. Davis.
