Qalthor Sounds Fore word at Mooting of Association LAWYER UNDER HOT FIRE "BUDDY" STILLMAN WITH HIS MOTHER Anbury Pari. N. .1.. June 28. The session of the twenty-ncventn annual meeting of the Pennsylvania Rar An loclation beftn here this mornlne at the Hotel New Monterey, with an attend ance of several hundred members and their families. The opening nddress of the president, Paul II. Galthcr. of OrtonsbtirK. was In part the foreword In a campaign for the formulation and adoption of a new Constitution for the State, as recom mended by the recent legislature. He Tra decidedly of opinion that a new Constitution wa highly desirable. It was fifty years ago. ne said, that the grcaent fundament.il law was adopted During that time vast changes had taken place. "Were we living In the days of Methuselah," said Mr. Gaithor. "a new constitution every BOO years would be quite sufficient: but with a stupen dous rush of events is It not well to. at least once In fifty years, hand back to the people the government under which they live for approval or revision as necessity may require? "While it is true the Legislature, as representative of the people, at frequent sessions grinds out huge tomes of statute law, much of It is unnecessary, and mnch of that which Is necessary not understanding!' written. The day ha eurely come when the principles of gov ernment should be reasserted In the fundamental law of our Common wealth." Lawyers' Methods Condemned A severe condemnation of the pro fessional conduct of a former Pennsyl vania Congressman, John II. Uother mel, a member of the bar of Herks County, was the outstanding feature of the report of tho Committeo on Griev ances, presented by Frank C. McGlrr, of Pittsburgh, chairman. The commute reported that It had In vestigated a complaint made by one John Smith, convict No. B-7560, of the Eastcru Penitentiary, who accused Rothermel of extorting $30 from him under the promise of taking his case before the Board of Pardons, at the Bamo time boasting of his Influence with the board, with the judges and others In authority Smith also stated that Roth ermel had obtained various sums from other convicts, varying from a few dol lars up to a hundred and more, for which, as a rule, he rendered no serv ice, sometimes not even reporting as to what, If anything, he had done in behalf of his supposed clients. The committee recommended that un less the $D0 obtained from convict Arrester Wood be refunded to him the Bar Association of Berks County begin proceedings for Rothcrmel's disbar ment. Legal Discipline Urged The Special Committeo on Legal Dis- cipline, comprised of Paul H. Galtber. of Greensburg; Frank C. McGlrr, of Pittsburgh, and George Wentworth Corr, of Philadelphia, reported a pro- Soscd act giving original jurisdiction to le Superior Court, in addition to the jurisdiction already possessed by the : local court, in cases of disbarment or discipline of lawyers, and providing for the appointment by the Supreme Court of a Committee on Grievances to re ceive, investigate and prosecute charges of professional misconduct. A 'review of what is being accom plished in harmonizing the divergent laws of the States was given In the report of the Committee on Uni form State Laws, submitted by Judge William M. Hargest, of Harrisburg. The committee accepts the recommenda tions of National Conference of Uniform State Laws, with which it works In harmony as to new laws in the interest of uniformity, and urges their passage by the Pennsylvania Legislature. A new departure In the property laws of Pennsylvania was proposed in the r?port of a special committee, through Its chairman, Graham C. Woodword, of Philadelphia, which recommended the enactment of a chattel mortgage law. for the mortgaging or pledging for debt of personal and movable property, Similar to mortgages upon real estate. Campaign for More .Members That there are upward of 8000 law yers engaged In Pennsylvania was one of the things brought out In the report of the. Committee on Admissions, pre sented by the chairman, George Went worth Cnrr, of Philadelphia. The fig urcB were presented as an incentive for the continuance of a drive for new membership in the association. The Committee on Criminal Law. whose principal effort for several years hao been toward the enactment of a law for the obolition of county jails and the substitution therefor of a modern and enlightened system of penal farms, reported that the bill for that Surpose had again failed of passage at 16 last session of the Legislature. , SENTENCE PRONOUNCED Murderer of West Chester Deputy Constablo Sent to the Chair West Chester, June 28.

Edwin Williams' Funeral The funeral of Kdwin Williams, who died in oction in France, September 5, 1018. took place yesterday from the un dertaking establishment of Deputy Cor oner George B. Frankenfield, Clifton Heights, Pa. Services were conducted by the ncv William Bovd. pastor of LanFdowne Presbyterian Church. Burial was in Arlington Cemetery. The echoes of Tostl's "Good-by" by Hie Fnirmount Park Band had barely died away last night when a discordant note was raised by a womnn's voice. It carried the tone of a woman wronged. The good-by forever notes were still lingering in the ears of the audience when the woman, with n baby In her arms, rose nnd snld "There's my husband with another woman." The speaker was Mrs. Asna Bale, of Fiftieth and Master Btrcetn. Her Index finger pointed to a sportily dressed man and n dashing looking brunette, who were sitting in decidedly friendly fash ion on a bench The man was Wlnfleld Bale, hus band of the accusing woman, nnd al though the woman said she was Annie Balm, thin did not heal the wounded feelings of the wife. "Your husband is merely a friend of mine," said the brunette who was of the towerlne tvne nnd Ktvllshlv clsd. Ignoring the woman, Mrs. Utile shouted, "lou sneak. I thought you were going out to cash a check " There were other words and the music-lovers frowned nt the woman who jarred the harmony of the occasion. And then Park Guard Hilfcrt nud Mounted Guard Rommel arrested the three figures in the case. They were taken to the West Park guard house and charged with disorderly conduct. But while they were there the echoes of the music waftwl up to tho guard house. Perhaps this softened the heart of Mrs. Bale. "I guess we have all suffered enough, she told a guard. All three were released. Husband ,nnd wife went down tho road and the former carried the baby. The brunette moved off pilently alone, nnd melted Into the darkness of the night. Bank Head Tells of Trust in Zell "No More Banlts for Me," Says Farmer, Twice Loser Lancaster, Pa., June 28. One of tho many farmers who lost their all In the crash of the Agricultural Trut Co., in handing In his pass book, told Special Deputy Banking Com missioner Graff that he became a de positor only three weeks ago after he had lost considerable money when the bank nt Lnndlsville had been stuck up and robbed by bandits. "Some one advised me to put what I had left In the Agricultural," said this farmer, "telling mo what a stable and secure institution it was. "No more banks for me. I think I will build myself n little vault In the cellar of the old farmhouse and guard It with my trusty '44.'

P. ) Two "gentlemen hlghwnmen." one In evening dress, the other wearing n Tuxedo, entered the City Hnll, just around tho corner from the police sta tion here, Inst night, held up J. C. Turner, assistant city clerk, and escaped with 548.10 in ensh nnd $000 in city checks. ConHnned fmm Tnie One here again on Juno 1 nnd told us that Zell was overboard in the market, I realized that he had been tricking me nil the time, hveu then I did not dream that he was involved to nny great extent, and when he told me that he would straighten out evervthinz I believed him just as I had done all the time. "It was only a ruse on his rmrt. I think he was pinning hope ngainst hope that ho would recoup his losses and put the trust company on Its feet without nny of us knowing anything about his plunging. "However, whatever plans herhad in mind did not materialize, as the bank examiners finally succeeded in unearth ing the manner in which he had worked and closed our bank. Directors Are Deceived "No onp realizes what a blow it has been to me. Perhaps we should not have had such implicit faith in Zell. He didn't fool me alone. All of us be lieved in Zell. nnd nil now realize the grave error committed when we did not relieve him as treasurer when first warned, six months ago." Tears streamed down the face of the aged president as he grew reminiscent and told of the days when he first knew Chnrlic Zell. "I have known him since he was knee high," said President Roycr. "I watched him as he grew up and began to make rapid strides In the financial world. I respected him as a financial wizurd. He was snch a wonderful talker and such a convincing one thnt all who knew him had the utmost confidence in him. When I was asked to head the Institution in which Charlie Zell was n director I was proud. I felt glad that I was to be associated with a man of his lntclli gence nnd chnraeter, but he fooled me he fooled all of us. Personally, he has not inflicted nny financial damage on me, not Individually, hut many of my good friends were taken In. I onlv hope we will be able to straighten affairs out in such a way as to render a good re turn to the depositors." Depositor Warned in Time John L". Mnlone. leading criminal lawjer of this county, who has been en gaged nt. counsel by Zell. admitted last night thnt only a few hour, before the institution closed Its doors he suc ceeded in withdrawing $18,000 for one of his clients. f: nround that lappcn," said Mr. Maione, "nnd I got tmsy right away nnu managed to pry loose tue $18,000 before tho crash arrived." This morning Mr. Mnlone came out flat with the announcement thnt Zell plnyed a lone linnd, and that no one else is Involved In the defalcation. Furthermore, Mr. Malono insists that tho shortage will not go higher than $150,000. Special Deputy Banking Commis sioner Graff, however, does not agree with the figures handed out by Mr. Maione, and says thnt the shortage Is growing hourly nnd hns Increased from S200.000. the sum admitted b.v Zell. to $224,000 and is likely to go higher than $300,000. "I told them tne trutn wnen i said that 1 took nbout $200,000." Zell told his attorney today, "nnd, furthermore, this will be considerably reduced when the accounts that I hnd with my brok ers nre turned in. Then I want to turn over to the receiver of the trust company my life insurance, which amounts to quite a sum. Putting all of mv assets together, T will be able to reduce my shortage at least $05,000." Zell Anxious to Help "Zell is n contrite mnn." said Mr. Maione. "He wants to help all he can to straighten out the muddle, nnd I be lleve he is sincere. I hnve advised him to come clean, ns he has all to gain- and nothing to lose by a confes sion. Ho is In a highly nervous condi tion nnd now wants me to keep his wife nwny from jail. He said his first desire was to see her. but he now thinks thnt asking his wife to come to him iu jail will humiliate her, and he hns asked me to forbid it. "I have instructed Zell to waive hear ing and 1iavc advised the authorities to that effect. He will also plead guilty ot his trial and thus save time and trouble." Zell had the warden of the county jail get In touch with Mr. Maione early last evening, and Ma,lone went to seo him. While his nttorncy was in con ference with Zell the representatives of tho State Banking Department called to sec Zell, and nt that time his lawyer advised him to be perfectly frank with the officials and elve them all the infor mation he had to unravel the affairs of the defunct institution. Special Deputy Graff states that It is not likely that any arrests will bo made today. He says as yet it is a little bit too earlv to talk about further or rests. Right now Mr. Graff and his assistants nre busy trying definitely to establish how much real money Is In volved In the defalcation. The other matters incidental to the theft, such as the part plnyed by the directors nnd other officials in the withdrawal of money just prior to the crash, will nil be investigated in turn, and if any of these matters develop as is thought, then there will be more arrests. Atlantic City, Juno 28. Institu tional confinement as largely practiced today for the cure of the drug habit, an evil which has. become to an extent a national mennce, Is frowned on by Dr. George E. Bills, of Hnrrisburg. who specialized In the study of the victims. He gnvo his views toTny in an address before the tenth annual convention of the Allied Medical Association nt tho Traymoro Hotel. ' "Prohibition, so far aR my observa tion Is concerned, has exerted a ten dency to largely Increase- the nddlcls, nnd Pennsylvania is no exception," he iald. , i He opposed the entrance of the Fed eral and State authorities Into the field of curing tho addicts, which largely follows the plan of confinement. Ho argued that the blood of tho victim pro vides relief and cure,. His experiments proved conclusively to him that tho blood was a counter-corrective for nil excessive Indulgence in drugs. Insti tutional cures, lie pointed out, leave the patients lacking will power. Ho found thnt nil drugs taken regularly form n compound tlesuo poison, whose effects on the system remain long after the drug has been eliminated. Tho cure, be said, is treating the vic tim with his own modified blood, which normalizes all his functions and restores (lis normal emotional resistance against the drug. Recent statistics show thnt death in this nation comes to 100,000 people an nually from cancer nnd that tho num ber of victims is steadily increasing, the convention was told by Dr. Frcd crick Dugjile. of Boston, Mass., who has made n study of the dread malndy for eighteen years.
