"When T see an opponent maklnK a I
political mistake, I try to (Inure out how
to take tip the other side find bring It
around so that the matter will be rlsht.
Wut I don't Intend to profit politically
at the expense, of the city or anv one
else. These charter bills would do the
city an avtful lot of bairn and any legis

for the very bet Intetests of the city
of Philadelphia "
Uphold Prlrnle t'onlrnclora
Senator Vare Is of the opinion that If
Ihe'sectlon of the AVoodward 1 Ills, pro
viding for the city to clean Its streets
sjhd collect the ashei of Philadelphia,
could be rasscd, that tho expenditures
for tho work each ear would be quad
rupled. To bick up this statement, the
Senator Issued a defl to the cltliens of
Philadelphia to Inquire of Director
Datesman just how much It cost the
city to make street repairs.
Senator Vare also declared that the
proposed legislation to revise Philadel
phia's fiscal system would result In an
Increase In the ta rate. He then an

Pledged to support the Woodward bills,
providing for a new charier for Phila
delphia. Senator McXIchol's name ap
peared In published reports nmonc those
who wern supposed lo be pledged to
support the Woodward measures.
Senator McNIcliol Noncommittal
"I am not committed to the Wood
ward bills." Senator McNIrhnl said.
"Two bills haxe. been presented by Sen
ator Woodward and two measures have
been Introduced by Hepresentatlxe Scott.
I Intend carefully to study all of them
and see which I think would be for the
best Interests of Philadelphia. Clover
nor Sproul may have something to say
about changes In Philadelphia's gn em

tlmo to take u decided stand on the
questions. I am. not pledged to suppoit
any bill or set of bills."
At present only two Philadelphia Sen
ators are said to fiixor the measuie.
They are Senatois Woodward and Dnlx.
The latter Is In faor of amending the
Woodward hills, however.
Senator Vaie made public bere a
statement In answer to the chaiges

T.veiv one has known during Ibis cuie ine iiunm ...--
entlro period what It has cost the city
to clean the stteets and the figures are
adx'ertlsed every ear. Therefore, there
in nothing startling nor new In the
statement put cut by Powell Kvans,
who Is the self-appointed spokesman
for the so-called charter committee
There la no charge of unfair dealing
either In procuring the contracts nor
In their performance. It Blmply means
twenty ears without Interruption under
Tiepubllcan as well as P.eformed admin
istrations of a legitimate piece e.f work
without the slightest scandal connected
with It.
Itefers to Attacks on McNIchol
"Such Irresponsible political commit
tees as this one always have been
criticizing contractors' on municipal
work. The late Senator James P. Mc
NIchol for years was Ihe object of their
bitter attacks. In 1905 these same per.,
pie went so far as to bring an expert
engineer. Major Gillette, Into Philadel
phia and persuaded hlin to Issue a stale,
ment that the late Senator's ptoflts In
the. construction of the filtration sys
tern were at least 6,000,flo(i. A bitter
political contest was fought over these
contracts, which the then Mayor can
celed on the ground of fraud.
"Every one will now remember that
after the excitement of a political cam
paign had passed away and the Sena.
tor'a contracts wero subjected to the
calm and deliberate judgment of the
courts that it was shown beond any
doubt, which no one questions, that his
contracts were) fair, his work was be
yond criticism and his profits less than
reasonable. The only result ot the un
truthful attacks upon him by these same
people who are now trying to find the
baBls of fome charge against me for
political purposes, was That the city suf
fered over U.000,000 In actual damages
awarded for the breach of the contract,
and the citizens of Philadelphia sus
tained Inestimable loss because of the
delay In the construction ot the filtration
plant caused by the Senator's critics.
"I want the public to dally pass upon
the etreet cleaning work of Philadelphia,
remembering that I am responsible only
for the streets south of Poplar street
and between the two rivers, I ask that
the traveling public compare the streets
of Philadelphia with those or any large
city In the United Slates, Citizens of
Philadelphia who have occasion to see
other cities cannot be affected by the
political and untruthful statements pub-
llshed out of factional malice."

Vertical filing was originated by Library Bureau 27 years
ago. The system worked so satisfactorily that a vertical
filing cabinet was exhibited, more or less as a curiosity, at
the World's Fair in Chicago.
Before Library Bureau originated vertical filing, every
body filed letters and important records on hooks, in boxes
"in any old way."
Then, the office boy did the filing when not out on errands.
Today, filing has become a profession an important part of
business in charge of responsible employees.
Business efficiency owes much to the innovations of Library
Bureau. Not simply because it originated vertical filing, or
the card index system, or counter-hight units, or the card
record desk, or the L. B. Automatic index, but because it has
kept on improving andadapting the L. B. Idea for 43 years.
It matters not at all whether you do business in a single office or a plant
that covers acres the L. B. organization is equipped by study and experi
ence to serve you.
Library Bureau is the world's largest manufacturer of card record and
filing equipment. Its very size and its experience are your safeguards in
the present changing over from war to peace.

tj When you place these Overcoats
and Suits alongside of those that
your friends will pay $30 to $40 for
next Fall and Winter, and tell them
that you got yours at Perry's for $25,
they'll tell you that you always were
a luckv bov!
That's the real inwardness of the
matter, for these remainders of a big
season's selling are $40, $35, $30
and $28 Overcoats and Suits, and we
can't duplicate them today to sell
for those figures. But, we're clear
ing decks and tables and fast
piling them with the new Spring
Styles, for which we need the room!
