run over the quota of $153,000,000, and
both New Jersey and Delaware will ex

surprised if our district runs over
$400,000,000, making an orsubscrip-
, tion of not less than $25,000,000.

BUSINESS HARMONY URGED

Men Told How to Get

Bellum Profits
Atlantic City, -May 12. Cutthroat
competition would prevent American
business rom cashing in on n wonder
ful world opportunity, Charles F. Laug,
of Cleveland, warned the National Tool
Builders' Association In Its first post
bellum convention at the Hotel Tray
more today.
"The great nnd pressing necessity for
the future Is co-operation," he said,
"I itni convinced we are going to con
tinue upon a high prico ltfvel for a long
time to come. History tells us that
never sluce tho Thirty Years' War have
prices returned to pre-war 'levels."

FOR WOMEN
ations it Introduces Into the sex prob
lems. They see other women wearing
thin blouses ; the shops are full of them
nnd they buy them becnuse they are
dainty nnd every one else is wearing
them.
French Ilerls Happed
"It is the same way with French
heeled shoes. They aren't indecent, of
course, but they are most unhygienic
nnd impracticable. As a matter of fact,
the women are demanding more and
more the sensible Bhoes. They don't
want those pointed toes nnd high heels,
but the shops are forcing them on the
market nnd sensible shoes nre much
more expensive because not many are
made. I sec no reason why women
should not have as sensible a shoe as
Uncle Sam provided for his soldiers."
Doctor Richards's training of high
school girls does not limit itself to dress.
She is n decided enemy of spooners nnd
flirts, of "vamp" fans nnd jazz dancers.
"I know nil those things hnve their
attractions for youth," she continued,
"but the girl or the boy with real
backbone, with self-respect and n de
sire to become n clean, healthy citizen
will simply keep away from suVli things.
I think dancing is n splendid nmuse
ment and good exercise when done
properly. Rut I abhor this plastering
of cheek against cheek and the close
ness of the partners in many of the
modern dances. It is not merely im
proper, but it is unhygienic. It lias a
bad effect on the morals just as the
'vamp' movies and plays do.
Teaches Sex Hygiene
"For seven years I have been teach
ing senior high school girls here in sex
hygiene with splendid results. 1 be
lieve the girl should bo prepared for
marriage anil motherhood. Al these
ideas on dress, dancing and flirting are
simply a part of this preparation. The
woman who makes the best wife and
mother is the one who hns kept her
mind, heart and body clean. And I

Extra Propellers Will Be Carried
to Insure Nonstop
Azores Cruise
MACHINES ARE TUNED UP
By the Associated Press
Trepassey, N. i-, May iL.,Tilc
American navy's hydroalrplanes will set
out on their transatlantic flight carry
ing, if possible, crews of slv men in
stead of five, as originally plnnned, and
wiui exira propellers aboard, Comman
der John II. Towers, chief of the ex
pedition, announced today in n state
ment detailing precautionary measures
to insure completion of the projected
nonstop cruise to the Azores.
Tlie extra men nnd spare parts, to
gether with a maximum supply of, pe
trol, would bring the weight of each
plane to 28,800 pounds, the comman
der said, which might prove more than
the 1000 horse power engines could
lift from the water. In this event, he
added, tlie craft, nfter a surface cruise
in the harbor, would "taxi" back to the
mother ship, dischnrge nnd drain oft
the excess fuel, reducing the weight to
28,000 pounds. The motors of the
NC-1 and NC-,1 easily carried 25,000
pounds from Itocknvvay Point, N. Y.
The proper enlargement of the crews
and equipment was the result, Comman
der Towers stated, of the experience
gained in the flight from Halifax, when
the NC-o, flagship of the division, was
delayed in her start and then forced
to return t,o port because nt propeller
trouble after cruising fifty miles.
The American airplane mechanics
worked on the N't'-!!, tied up to tlie
tender Aroostook, this morning in n
temperature 2 degrees below freeziuc.
A thin skim of ice covered the harbor,
but melted as the sun rose toward the
meridian. One of NC-.'t's propellers was
shifted and the gasoline tanks filled.
The NC-1 was refueled and passed in
spection yesterday. The planes wCre
fitted with belts for the mechanics, so
that motor repairs could lie made in
midair. .

ACTION ON CHARTER
Amendment Providing Non
partisan Municipal Elections
Proposed by Revisionists
PENROSE IN WASHINGTON
flu n Btrtff Corvspottrfettf
Harrlsbtirg, May 12. Senator Pen
rose will not appear in Hnrrisburg this
week to direct tho fight in behalf of
charter revision nnd other reform meas,
urcs. The senator telegraphed that he would
he detained In Washington, where his
political prestige is tfirentcnrd by an
nouncement of eight progressive sena
tors that they would fight his selection
ns chairman of the Senate finance
committee,
As Governor Sproul nnnounced last
week thnt he would not have time to
finish his consideration of Philadelphia
reform legislation until next week, little
nction on the Woodvvnrd charter bills,
the Daix registration bills or the Botnn
measures is anticipated tills week.
No amendments nre expected to be
submitted to the bills until the Gov
ernor 1ms made known just whnt he will
stand for nnd whnt lie will not in the
way of remedial legislation for Phila
delphia.
The chief topic around tho Cnnitol
now ii the announcement by the charter
revisionists that they would remedy the
v oodward charter bills to provide for
tne nonpartisan election of ,a mayor
and councilmen. Senator Penrose re
cently declared that he was "a convert"
to the nonpartisan method of electing
city officials.
Statement By Winston
The fact that such nmendments will
be offered wns made public yesterday in
n statement issued by John C. Winston,
chairman of tho charter revision com
mittee. "The principal subject discussed,"
said the statement, "wns tho proposi
tion to add a new article to the charter
bill providing for tlie election of the
Mayor, City Council nnd the city treas
urer on a nonpartisan ticket. An
amendment to this effect wns unani
mously agreed upon, the provision be
ing thnt tlie two high candidates at the
primary will he the candidates at the
general election.
"The committee wns unanimous in
adhering to its formes position in re
gard to the matter of letting contracts
for certain classes of work liy a three
fourths vote of Council. The chair
man, however, was authorized to clarify
the language of this clause in order to
make it more specific."
Because of tlie pnssage by the House
last week of the AVillson bill to repeal
tlie nonpartisan law for third-class
cities, the situation relative to the non
partisan issue is somewhat complicated.
Although henator Penrose declared
his approval of the nonpartisan idea,
in-so-far ns municipalities are concern
ed, the followers in the House of the or-
ganizalion wliich he heads put through
the repealer, and tlie upstate inde
pendents, who have a habit of being
ngainst jiio-t an tiling that the organ
ization is for, fought bitterly to keep
the Clurk nonpartisan law for third
class cities on the statute books.
I'se Hepcaler as Feeler
Legislators from Pittsburgh nnd
Scranton engineered the pnssage of the
repealer in the House after a defeat'
had been meted to tlio bill on its first '
appearance. The belief wns current
then that the Pittsburgh mid Scranton i
. , , . .
IWtors were using
the third-class,
