Governor Brumbauch, In "Is final ad
dress today to the General Assembly nt
Harrlsburg, laid stress on tho splendid
showing of tho Stair In tho war, in both
Industrial and military activities.
He made many recommendations for
future legislation. Ono of these was for
the ratification of the constitutional
amendment forbidding- tho manufacture,
sale and use of intoxicants.

needs of the tlnus; that the tuition of ;
men who left college to answer the call'
to the colors be paid until they had,
completed their course; and J"'""-1
tlonnl education be extended, with a
special rse to the Inculcation of princi-
pies of patriotism and the extirpation o. ,
"Pusslanlsm" In the schools.
An Important recommendation that
would affect a large percentage of the
State's population was for an increase i wm i, restored to their owners.
In tho percentage of workmen's com- "Manlfe-tly, from a social standpoint,

Philadelphia and Camden and suggested "" "''' "nPl"es should be adc
that It might serve as a memorial to (U.itel compensated .
the part Pennsylvania took in the war.
Another recommendation of Importance
to Philadelphia was for a "Continental
Boulevard," to he constructed around
Philadelphia, "beginning at Washing
ton's Crossing on the Delaware, passing
through Kulpsville. Port Washington.
Pennvn.-irUer Mills. Valler Porire. Paoll
and Chadcls Ford to the llrandywine.
This boulevard," said tho Governor, "at
least 150 feet wide, dotted with historic
memorials and enshrined In the shade
of native trees would Intersect all radial
roads leading out of Philadelphia and
would be the most commanding historic
way in America.
"It Is your opportunity to make real
this memorial and to dedicate It to the
soldiers and sailors of tho Common
wealth who In the late war, side by side
with the Allies, made Pennsylvania once
again glorious ln the annals of men."
A World's Fair for Philadelphia In
-L-ommemoratlon of the 150th anniversary
of tho Declaration of Independence was
another project which received the In
dorsement of tho Governor.
Tralir Work on lEoatl.
"Tho people of Pennsylvania," said
the Governor, "four years ago de
cisively declined to nuthorlzo a bond
Issue for the construction of highways.
Vfhe same people have just as decisively,
Ihj the late election, authorized such a
bond issue. This Is unquestionably a
vote of confidence In the work of the
Highway Department, and this con
fidence has been well placed. The Im
provement of our highways from current
revenues has been one of the notable
services rendertd ail the people."
The Governor suggested that the
license fees for motortrucks 1m r.iiscl,
because of the damage done to roads
by these heavy vehicles, anil iliac the
money be applied to road building.
The Governor spoke feelingly of tho
work of the National Guard nn the
Mexican border and abroad II.. also
referred to the ertatlon of tho new
militia reserve force.
"On June 18, 1MB," said the Governor.
"the National Guard was mobilized by
direction of the Secretary of War and
by July 5 was entrained at Mount I Ing- "Patrons of the transpoitatlone-um- tobtislness.
