CITY IS DECLARED
- CLEARED OF REDS
200 Were in City May 1, They
Have All Gone Now, Says
Lieutenant Emanuel
PRAISES BOMB SQUAD
Philadelphia Is clear of "reds."
Lieutenant of Detectives Andrew
Emanuel made this announcement to
day. More than 200 radicals banded to
gether Into scparato groups were in
this cjty in May. All have gone, Lieu
tenant Emanuel said.
Lieutenant Emanuel and his right
hand man, William Muhoney, said that
when the bomb squad came Into existence
on May 0, four days after bombs ,had
been exploded in this and eight other
cities by terrorists, there were moro
than 200 men in town considered dan
gerous by the police. With tho an
nouncement of the formation of a
"bomb squad" to investigate radical
activities Lieutenant Emanuel said the
Ited9 began drifting out of town one by
one until a survey made by his men
three weeks ago and continued up to
yesterday showed that not one of the
old gang could be found in any of the
haunts usually frequented by them.
Proud of Bomb Squad
"The bomb squad has been increased
from time to time," said Lieutenant 1
Emnnuel, "until now we have an or
ganization which is the equal if not the
suptrior of New York's famous bomb
squad. I don't intend to make known
the personnel of the squad, for I do
not believe in giving advance informa
tion to thcenemy.
"We have the description of every
known anarchist and his picture on tile
in this office, however, and we know
not only where they live, but the places
they frequent. Wc hnve an elaborate
checking up system which enables us to
Y find out within an hour or so whether
the man is in town, and we have trained
men in every police district in the city.
We know every meeting place and every
meeting that is off color is kept under
J observation.
"If we do not like the looks of things
we are prepared to shut down any meet
ing at a moment's notice."
Other members of the bomb squad
said that for the last month nearly
' eery person or organization that could
be considered in any way radical has
been inactive.
Conditions Are Changed
A different state.of conditions exists
in tho city now compared with several
months ago, they say. Then the radicals
were busily working to make May Day
a success. Pamphlets by the million
were being ground out by the Bolshe
vist presses and scattered broadcast
throughout the city by hundreds of
' workers for the cause of the proletariat.
Now only one organization continues
active in the distribution of seditious
r literature and that Is the group styling
itselt the "American Anarchist Fed
erated Commune Soviets." Even this
organization seems to have grown loss
energetic, for the last issue of ' the
official organ, "The American Anarch
ist Soviet Bulletin." did not hnve such
f& wide circulation as the first one, due
kto the vigilance of the "bomb" squad
ana the police force in general.
The interchange of photographs and
general information on all radicals
which was decided upon at a meeting
of the chiefs of police in New York
city several weeks ago is working to a
point of efficiency, and every day Lieu
. tenan
PpnM
tenant Emanuel gets the photographs
descriptions of suspects from all
the country. So many of these
ihc received that he has had to limits
ad-addition to his tiling system in the
shape of a new cabinet.
Lieutenant Emauuel sayathat al
though the anarchists and other radi
cals have apparently deserted this city
bis men have not relaxed their vigi
lance and ard ready to cope with any
emergency that might arise.
MODESTY AND RINGS SAVED
But Burglar Escapes From Grasp of
jrf.-... DOdrucr gdim i ruuocrs
if a boarder at tho home of Mrs. Yctta
Isenberg, G10G Parksidc avenue, hadn't'
paused to put on his trousers yesterday
afternoon, a robber who entered the
Isenberg home might have been cap
tured. The boarder was In the midst of a
bath when the robber, entering tho back
kitchen of the Isenberg home, covered
Mrs. Isenberg with a pistol, and tried
to wrest several diamond rings from her
hand. The bathing boarder, hearing Mrs.
Iseuherg's screams, ran to her assist
ance. ',. Overcome with modesty at the reali
zation that he was without trousers, the
K boarder hastily withdrew, however, after
taking one look at the woman and her
assailant. A few seconds later, armed
with his trousers he reappeared. The
robber was gone. The rings and the
boarder's modesty were both saved.

The industrial and economical changes
confronting negro women in the sud
den coming of peace was the main topic
of dicusion at the second day's ses
sion of the Pennsylvania State Federa
tion of Negro Women's Clubs, held yes
terday in the Union Baptist Church,
Nineteenth and Fitzwatcr streets. Mrs.
Ituth Bennett, of Chester, presided. The
sessions will close tonight.
The principal speaker was Mrs. Alice
Dunbar Nelson, of Wilmington, daugh
ter of Paul Laurence Dunbar, the negro
poet. She urged that the negro women
keep in closer touch vith governmental
affairs and tho men back of those af
fairs. "There are more than 1,000,000
negro women who will have the vote
now," she said. "And we mutt use
thnt vote to put the right man iu office.
In the hands of the negro of the North
rests the salvation of the negro of the
South."

Brown, vice president, and Mrs. Luella
Howard, of Pittsburgh. Miss Blanche
Thompson, of this city, spoke on "Edu
cation." Music nnd recitations helped

. RAIN IS LANDLORD'S ALLY
Tenants, However, Remain In Half
Demolished Homes
Despite a downpour of rniu last night
that flooded some of the rooms of the
houses at .r222 and T224 Broomall ave
nue, which are being demolished, the
Vogelson and Pringle fumilies continued
to occupy them this morning.
They were still unable to find new
homes, and they expressed their inten
tion of remaining although the owner,
Charles W. Haller, says he'll tear the
houses down.
Mrs. Grace Vogelson, who occupies
5222 Broomall avenue, while expressing
determination to stick it out, said she
feared that some part of the walls,
dampened by rain, may fall. With the
exception of a few belongings, most of
the furniture had been removed to a
storage house.
Rain water also flooded the house of
Samuel Pringle adjoining, damaging
some of the furniture. Pringle mid he
has looked everywhere for a house, hut
cannot find one.
Miss Mary Whitehouse, of 748 South
Fifty-first street, who sold the houses to
Haller as n site for a service station,
said yesterday that thirty dajs' notice
to move was sent to both families on
May 28. The families deny this.
Rain stopped the work of razing the
buildings yesterday.

STRIKERS MARKING TIME
Marine Firemen Await Word From
Washington to Decide Course
SInrine men now cm n strike in
Philadelphia and other ports in the
East, from Portland, Me., to New Or
leans, are awaiting word from Wash
ington today ns to the outcome of the
conference between their representatives
and officials of the shipping hoard be
fore determining the course they will
follow in the pursuance of their de
mand for more pay.
In conformity with this policy it was
decided at a meeting of the men of the
Seamen's Union this morning that noth
ing should be done pending news from
the capital. It is estimated by union
delegates that there arc approximately
2000 men at this port out ou strike.
"The union has not prohibited a
seaman from shipping with a vessel
during this agitation, 't said one of their
local delegates today, "but the men
absolutely refuse to sign nnd sail with
n ship employing non-union firemen,
which means that there will be no ships
sailing."
An attempt was made today by the
New Tork state authorities to effect a
settlement when Michael J. Reagan,
conciliator of the State Department of
Labor, arrived in New York to offer
his services in bringing the stiikcrs and
employers together.

FAIL TO STOP DROWNING
Witnesses Say Life Preserver Was!
Not Thrown to Man In River
An unidentified man of about middle
ige leaped overboard from the deck of
the Pennsylvania ferrboat Bridgeton
en route from Camden to Philadelphia
shortly after noon yesterday and was
drow ned
Although he remained afloat for
ncnrl, seven minutes, witnesses say, no
effort vvas made to throw him a life pre
server or put out n small boat. The
body was not recoveied.
It is deplorable," said members of
the J. Brooks Parker family, of Straf
ford, who witnessed the accident, "that
a more strenuous effort was not made
on the part of the boat cicvv to rescue
the man. He swam about for
f nil v live minutes and then sci.cd u
slight spar, to which he clung for n
brief period. During the time he was
floundering helplessly in the water the
boat simply described a circle about
him and no effort vvas made to throw
out a life preserver or rescue him b,
other means."
PLEA' FOR CAMDEN FIREMEN
Surgeon Employed by City Urges

Adoption of the two-platoon system

urged by Polico and Fire Surgeon Dr.
A. Haines Lippincott.
Thus another champion for the eiuse
of the Camden firemen eomoH to the
none vvuii u.i urgumciK in invoi- oi 1111-
firefighters, who nre endeavoring to en-
list support and sjmpathy for theii
claims. Slayor Ellis and David Jes
ter, president of ("it, Council, are
two city officials who favor the
double-shift sjstem for the firemen.
It iN Doctor Lippincott's dutj to look
nfter the health of the policemen and
firemen of Cnmden. .He examines all
applicants for positions and likes care
of them when they nre injured or ill.
"I am heartily iu favor of the two
platoon system for the Camden hit
men,
said Doctor Lippincott. "he
cause I know that the health and hap
piuess of the men would bc betttred
through its adoption. Shorter w 1111.1111;
hours would mean more regular time fin
sleeping and eating. The men would
find needed recreation and lelixntiou.
Certainly the efficiency of th depait

"Push and Pull"
Like rivers, merchandise in its flow from maker to
user follows the line of least resistance.
A few years ago every druggist made up his own
tooth powders and other specialties and "pushed"
them with the public.
Then came the Advertised line and the public began
to "pull" the goods from the dealer.
Dealers found that it was more profitable to dis
pense goods with a"pull"than to everlastingly "push,"
Selling advertised goods follows the line of least
resistance.
The manufacturer who is exerting every effort to
push his merchandise may well consider the value of
adding a pull from the public.
Advertising space in the Buttcrick publications
is for sale through accredited advertising agencies.

When you heat water with a
Gas Water Heater, you have it
HOT not lukewarm. And you
never have to just wish, for hot
water you get it. The heat
goes into the water not into the
kitchen. That's comfort.
Every kitchen in Philadelphia
should have a Gas Water Heater
and a modem Gas Range. See our
display.

foot by purchasers representing the
Bell Telephone interest to acquire sub
stantial blocks of Keystone Telephone
stock were belittled today by E. M.
Cook, manager of the latter company.
Bell officials disclaim knowledge of any
such move
"I don't think the Bell company
wnnts to buy us and I know we are
not wanting to sell to them," Mr. Cook
declared. "That is all bunk started
by brokers who want to get the public,
excited and interested. They have their
living to make, and they think those
tactics will help
"I was In New Tork the other day,
and vvliilc I don't say Philadelphia
service is perfect, 1 certainly think the
service over there Is rotten. We need
competition to keep the standard of
service up and prices for it down. The
Keystone company will rcmuin Key
stone to the best of my knowledge,
