ENDSIIIP AND POLITICS EN the lines of Senator Vare's ef tho lato Senator McNichol orial ceremonies in the State was something more than '' McNichol had mnnv frlamla ipMwrs now that his stroncest nmy was one ot them. m succeed ui politics know the friendship and the endless in- f personal relationships with WS ftR iHiaUm U-H Um my tween loyalty to the community and loyalty to friends. Rudolph Dlankenburg was confronted with tho necessity for this choice when ho first entered the ofllco of Mayor. Ho refused to admit that tho selfish claims of thoso who helped to elect him ranked nbovo the claims of public duty nnd ho failed, therefore, to perpetuate the1 party organization that elected him. President Wilson had to face a similar decision. In New Jersey ho held in variably that his sole allegiance should be to the people and the state, and there after he was called an ingrate by the man who hnd worked hardest in his be half. Sooner or later the question must be faced by every American politician. And often the people themselves have the warmest regard for the man who "hticks to his friends," even though he must cloo his ees to definite moral obligations in order to servo those who hnvo served him. TUEIHIAINOFMANISTHK GREATEST MACHINE YET Aiilomoliilc EiiRint! Cannol Couiparn Willi It, for the Creator Is Greater Tlmn lj8 (.realure THERE aro more machinists, profes sional and amateur, in tho United States than in any other country in the world. Moro things are done by machinery heru than anywhere else. We have in vented labor-saving devices and t-et the pace for other nations. We have stan dardized manufacture and simplified pioccsscs and multiplied luxuries until the woikingninn enjoys greater comfort than it was possible for Charlemagne to buy with nil his kingly wealth. The steam litter or tho plumber can hear Caruso hlng in his own parlor nnd can make him repeat his t-ong as often as he pleases; the carpenter can talk with his employer ten or fifty miles away without leaving his own home, and the trolley-car conductor can reproduce on his mechanical piano the finest musi cal compositions. And they all do it. Thus has mechanical invention brought convenience and refinement into the homes of the workers. The world has made greater material progress in the hundred yeais since 1819 than in all the centuries since it was sent whirling into space admass of form less vapor nobody knows how many eons ago. During the last century the de vices for the use of steam on land and sen have been perfected. If Napoleon had had a fieet of steam ships he could have invaded England and the history of Europe would have been different. There might have been no St. Helena. If he had had railroads his expedition into Russia would not have ended disas trously on the white and frozen plains of a hostile country where tho very forces of nature fought against him. Since his time we have subdued na ture and compelled the hidden forces to do our bidding. Neither gasoline nor petroleum was known to the great Cor sican. The effect of their utilization upon the progress of the last half cen tury would take volumes to tell. We have invented the electric tele graph and tho telephone, which have brought the ends of the earth into famil iar converse with one another and have done much toward revealing to the com monest man the brotherhood of the whole human race. We have penetrated the mysteries of the upper air and have brought down electricity from its secret spaces and used it for the wireless trans mission of messages by signals, and even by the spoken voice. And we have taken tho destructive gases generated by volatile oils and put them into an engine by means of which vehicles are propelled on the highroads. And more remarkable still, the forces of gravity have succumbed to a greater power, and these engines have carried and are carrying man about in flying machines above the clouds at an incredi ble speed. The internal combustion engine is one of the greatest marvels of invention of all time. And it is still in its infancy. The automobile would be impossible without it. It is likely to produce almost as great a revolution in water traffic as was brought about by the perfection of the marine engine driven by steam. The Great" Eastern was a commercial failure for the reason that its engines and the coal to supply the steam filled so much space that there was no room left for a profitable cargo. The amount of space occupied by an internal com bustion engine and its fuel is o small that a ship equipped with one has its hold almost wholly free for freight. When the inventors begin to give their attention to developing the engine for ocean use steam is likely to disappear from the sea. The engine is used for all sorts of purposes on land. Many small factories use no other power. It is used on farms to drive machinery, to pump water and to haul plows in the field, displacing horses and wind power. But its greatest use is in automobiles. This is why the statement with which we began this article is true. There aro three and a half million automobiles in daily use in the United States at tho present time. Twenty years ago there were only ten thousand. Every owner of an automobile is an amateur machinist. He knows something of tho principles of mechanics and ho can talk learnedly about differentials and crank shafts and gaskets and cotter pins and universal joints and horse power and compression and gear boxes whether he knows much about them or not He does know enough to operate his car, which, now that the inventors have simplified the processes, Is so easy to manage that the fool, even though he ride, cannot blunder very much. The. cynic wight sy that the motor ic J- .pmmm.mm r.wiM AJ" " time with an abundant and throbbing life. In its perfected form, it Is ono of those machines against which It Is im possible to lay the charge that it dead ens those who use it. The curse of many machines, espe cially those in uso in factories, is that they transform their operators from 'human beings into automatons when they do not make slaves of them. It was the cotton gin which fastened negro slavery upon the South at a time when It had begun to disappear because it was unprofitable. The mechanical de vice for taking tho seeds out of the lint mndo It possible for tho planters to mar ket their crop in competition with cotton glowers in other parts of the world nnd the slaves were kept in tho fields. The danger which confronts us today is that we shall permit mechanical in ventions to take out of the workers that power of initiative and independent and constructive thinking without 'which no free man can live. When he loses it he is in bondage, whatever other name may be given to his state. The,rc arc fac tories today in which the operatives do one thing, supplementing the act of a machine, from morning till night six days " week. It is not surprising that they aie discontented and break out in some form of revolt. If they did other wise their case would be hopeless. So long as this condition pievails the work of the inventors is incomplete. They must make a machine that will do the whole job or modify the machines they linve made so thnt the man may be something more and gi enter than a mere tog or lever. Some uso must be provided for the brain of the worker, for that, after all, is the greatest machine ever put together and tho creator of every human device for conquering time and space. THE GOVERNOR'S PROGRAM TF GOVERNOR SPROUL can persuade the Legislature to share his present mood, the session ought to be filled with achievement. The general pronouncement 'issued by the Governor yesterday is comprehen sive, even though it does lack cxplicit ness in relation to some details of the executive prcgrnm and fails altogether to thiow out any suggestion which might be tiaceable to the recent conference held in Washington to consider means for the lelief of such hardship and con fusion as will attend the readjustments of the life and industries of the state to a peace basis. Perhaps the omission is due to the fact that the conference was largely lacking in conclusions on the subject. Obviously, the good-road,s legislation is to be pushed at top speed, and that is reassuring news. Gov ci nor Sproul has manifested a healthy disregard for the sacred cows of political tradition. At least one superfluous job of con siderable dimensions is threatened by him; that of health officer of the Phila delphia port, long held by a Philadel phia editor, who makes no pretense to a knowledge of sanitation or the tech nique of quarantines. The state fire marshal's office will also be abolished if tho Governor has his way, and this will causo no worry, because no one except the state fire marshal has any knowledge of the duties with which legislative rumor credits that official. It is to be hoped that the Legislature will share the Governor's enthusiasm in relation to the Delaware bridge project. It is generally understood that there will be some opposition to this great enter prise, just as there was frantic opposi tion to the introduction of trolley cars i nd gaslight. The Governor seems de termined to put all the weight of his in fluence behind the plan, and if he refuses to be dismayed he may get the appro pi iation bills through before adjourn ment, thus catching up with New Jersey and bringing a Delaware bridge actually within sight. In a general way, tho Governor re vpals an alcit mind and the energy of early days in a new office. It may "be regretted that in reference to laws for the conservation of the state's jespurces there was no random word to encour age those who are working unselfishly for the tiny appropriation asked b'y the Mothers' Assistance Fund and that the plans for a revision of the state charter are still indefinite. Many of the leformb pending in cities like Philadelphia, notably the elimination of thp outworn and obstructive system of petty magistrates, must wait in the final analysis on a revised slate consti tution. The Governor again recom mends the appointment of a commission to study the situation and report in 1921. The Governor's plan for a state Art Jury is timely and it ought to be sup ported, unless the communities of the state wish to be weighted down with a lot of factory-made monstrosities pa raded as war memorials. All in all, the program is sensible, feasible and progressive. The legisla tors should fully co-opeiate to make it a success. In a way Germany I.udenclorfT's should be satisfied.

Mr. Mann, of Illinois, tho floor lender, who was beaten for Speaker by Mr. Olllett, of Mas sachusetts, tins' been acting ng chairman, although nil parties ,to tho recent speaker ship contest havo been represented about tho board. Under tho scheme of represen tation agreed upon at the general party conference, Mr. Moore, of Pennsylvania, lias been casting tho highest number of voles and Mr. Mondell, of Wyoming, tho lowest. Mondell speaks for ono Represen tative nnd Moore for tweiity-'elght. Although tho big Republican states aro being considered for tho nrst time In ac cordance with their votlns population; It Is conceded that they have been fair nnd generous to tho smaller states, notwith standing tho announcement by Mr. Long worth, of Ohio that tho Hystem Is bid, Up to date tho assignments to commit tees indicate that thiro will be very llttlo chance to override tho report of tho Com inltteo on Committees when It gets bick to the Republican conference. 'If what tho committee Is doing Is sustained, aB Is now confidently believed, thero will be llttlo causo for Insurgency. Tho so-called "old guaid" has done no boasting about Its apparent control of tho Houso commtuce situation. It has slmpl gonu forward to get rid of the work anil to make the as signments as justly as possible. Penn sylvania, under this arrangement, will prob ably faro better than it has ever done In the history of the Republican party. All the Philadelphia members will bo on first class committees, while quite a number of Pennsylvanlans will sucuro thahmanslilps. A WORD or two about tho so called senior iiity rulo and what it means In practice. If tho Longworth idea were to prevail nnd committers should select their own chair man tho result as to the Wain and Means Committee, for instance, might be disas trous. Every new member coming to Washington for the llrst time and anxious to Inipics tho folks at homo with tho extent of his influence stiives to get on the Wajs and Means on some other big committee at tho start If by icason of deaths, transfers or vacancies, the Wajs and Means Committee, being entitled to fifteen Republican members ngalnst ten Democrats, should bo tut down to six Re publicans, which is now tho case, tho nlno new Republicans coming fresh from tho country, anxious for honors, but without experience, could organize, elect their own chairman and tako tho work into their own hands. If the seniority 'rule wero broken, judging from tho clamorous de mands of new members, that very thing would probably happen to tho existing Wajs and Means Committee, and tho six men who have served for many terms, gradually equipping themselves for tho Mg work ahpnd, would bo turned out for tho Incoming raw and untried aspirants. It Is not too much to baj-, even of men elected upon the Republican ticket, that the element of selfishness and personal am bition has not entirely died out In this j car of our Lord, 1919. The existing Committee on Committees, made up of older membeis of the House, has stood against tho abolition of tho Hcnioilty rule, and to that extent has sus tained precedent and probably btemmed tho tldu of Insurgency. WASHINGTON' hears that Colonel Georgo Montgomery! for niunj jeais the com mandant of the Frankford Atsenal, has be come engaged to marry Miss Clara Rabbit t Hj-de, of New York. Coloncj Montgomery mado a splendid record for efficiency at the Frankford Arsenal anil for saving the gov ernment monej'. lie was one of tho lead ing experts on small arras ammunition manufacture, but during tho war was as signed to special work In Italy and France. It Is understood tho War Department Is expecting him to take care of the ordnanco situation at Augusta, Ga. NOW that the war Is over and tho army doings are fairly well reported, It Is not, unnatural that friends of the navy should have an occasional look-in. Admiral Harry R. Wilson, who did such efficient work In Fraivce, vvlicro he was in command of the American naval forces, has brought a good deal of glory to Camden, where he was torn and where his mother still resides, but another young Camdenlto has also been doing things In tho navy. Ho Is Lieu tenant Commander "Guysbert 15.

Commander Vroom Is a son of the late Judge Vroom, of Camden. Ho was appointed to Annapo lis In 1907. SYLVESTER S. GARRETT, tho South Third street paper man, has a letter from General Leonard Wood concerning tho value of homo defense companies. Mr. Garrett thinks tho home defenso re servo should continue to function, and General Wood says it should be kept up unttt we have something to tako Its place. That something Is universal military training. Tho General urgeg that Indus trial training be combined with military training. THE Pen and Pencil Club boys will be glad to know that Augustlno H.
