Mr J could have stayed there indefinitely I
v' suppose ; but I couldn't see that I was
' anytning out a sort or office boy
for Mr. Grundy. I was offered the
nomination again, but I wouldn't take
it. I told Mr. Grundy I wanted te go

'and was never very nice te me after

CHINESE TO STAGE
OPERAFOR PHILA.
On Leen Merchants Se Vete in
Convention Amid Shouts of
"Hip! Sing!"
TO ERECT BUILDING HERE
"Hip ! Sing t Hip! Sing!"
That was the weird chant that arose
at Intervals today nt the eighteen an
nual convention of the On Leen Chi
nese Merchants' Association In session
nt the "Chinese Cafe," 017 Knee
street.
Immediately upon the consummation
of any resolution, the delegates present
from seventeen different cities chanted
"Hip! Sing! lllp! Sing!" le the nc
eempnniment of the strange four-string
Instrument, "goedkom," which inter
preted into English means "round as
the moon."
The delegates made the welkin ring
with "Hip! Sing!" when It was voted
te erect a handsome new building In
Bine street near Kighth, te house the
Philadelphia branch of the On Leen
Chinese Merchants' Association; they
made (he shim-ling bells in the Jess
Temple tingle with lbratlen when res
olutions were pnsed te call en the
Miner this week ami also visit the
Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce mid
apply for admission te that body.
There were plenty mere "Hip!
Sings!" when it was unanimously voted
te introduce a real cultural note into
Philadelphia's Chinatown by the pres
entation of n real Chinese opera, one
that will run continuously day and
night for forty-eight hours.
Te Be 'Swell" Affair
Chinese actors and scenery painted
by Chinese artists will be imported from
New Yerk. Invitations will be extend
ed te Philadelphia's "four hundred" and
all of this city's prominent opera fans
will he included. Prominent Chinese
voiced the opinion that the tlme was
at hand when Philadclphlans should be
reminded that China Is the eldest cultural
nation en earth, nnd that Its operas
and poetry antedate Moses and the
Tower of Babel.
But "Hip! Sing!" was really the
kejnetc of the meeting, and when trans,
lateil into English Is net se outlandish
ns It sounds. As a matter of fact, It
is a booster slogan nnd means :
"Get together with energy te obtain
victory !"
The decision te erect n new building
for the Philadelphia branch of the or
ganization was arrived at amid n storm
of enthusiasm. The delegates varied
"Hip! Sing!" with a. shrill: "Hai,
halta, hetata, hetui, he!" which means
"Let the Philadelphia China boys work
together for a new building."
The Chicago branch of the associa
tion has a new five-story building which
cost S.'leO.OOO, and there are handsome
association buildings in Detroit, Cleve
land, St. Leuis nnd ether cities.
Lay Down Trade Rules
Lee Slhn Quen, president of the Phil
ndelphln branch, who presided ever to
day's deliberations, outlined the func
tions of the new Arbitration Commit
tee. Here are some of the rules laid
dew n by the new beard :
1'nfalr competition must be stepped.
Merchants must abide by the rullugs
of the Sherman Act.
Cutting prices Is detrimental te all
merchants and must be stepped.
Where n Chinese merchant has built
up an exclusive trade in a nelchher-
heed, no nierchunt shall move In in
close proximity nnd set up n rival
business.
Where the merchant complained
against is n niemeer et tlie association.
and the complainant is an outsider, the
benefit of the doubt will be given the
miter.
After Which the Din Began
Tlie delegates discussed again today
the opening of the first direct steam
ship line from China te the United
Mntes
The first beat Will ldlVe Xcwinrn wnrblm. tinnl.- mill Inlnn tn .l.fwi.
,erl next .Sunday and the delegates
will re te that city and encage in a
"boti-vejage jubilee.
After routine businesi wns disposed
of a weird din broke out In tlie social
headquarters of the association. It
sounded as though several tens ef'jn many words that he indorses the
kitchen ware were being dropped te
the pavement from n tcn-ctery build
ing. Policemen stationed several
blocks away came up en the run and
pedestrians followed. Soen n crowd of
seeral Jmndred persons collected be
fore 017 Hnce street.
THIEVES GET WHISKY
Leuis Hetiibcry reported tn the po
lice teilaj that his drug store at UO.i
North Sixtieth stieet was iiihb"d of
fellv-fntlr lilies nf ltnllnr tinil n li.iltln
of cocaine, nlucd in all nt S11'7, lu-t

What's Peise?
t Seme men have it, some haven't it's usually
a trait of character, but net always. Clethes
help produce it if you've confidence in
their style you show it in your manner. Our
tailors have developed styles that develop
poise absolutely correct ideas models
that make you knew you're well groomed.
1 Yeu will be agreeably surprised at the extremely mod
erate cost of these clothes they are priced $30 and
upward for cither Suits or Tep Coats, and the values
at $40, $45 and $50 nre unqualifiedly the greatest in
Philadelphia.

Pinchot Racing
On Untagged
Conttneed from Pese One
Harry Baker, an opportunity te save
his face by taking his candidate, Lieu
tenant Governer Bctdlemnn, out of the
race with the ethers.
It is odd, but Charles A. Snjder's
name Is never mentioned In all this fuss
and furore.
As for Herry A. Mnckey, the feeling
here Is that Senater Vare and his
friends will be perfectly willing te with
draw his name if Muckey will Hand
for It provided n compromise candi
date for Governer enn be named who
will "produce."
That Is. one who will "stay put" and
net fly off at n tangent.
Bight there is the source of Gilferd
Plnchet's strength. He is net "tagged."
He Is free-footed. He lias no entan
gling alliances. Fer this reason the
'endeis have relegated him te the li-t
et the undesirables nmeng the guberna
torial possibilities.
Ne Issue ns te liis Republicanism has
been raised. Ills ability is unquestioned.
He Is a national figure. But the lead
ers nnd near-leaders, the sub-bosses and
miner fiatrnps, don't want national fig
ures imposed upon them.
There is one best bet, se far ns Gif
ford Pinchot is concerned, that has been
overlooked, when it comes te picking
a candidate te oppose Jehn A. McSpar
rnn. Democratic candidate for Gover Gover
eor. Mr. McSparran is head of the State
Grange Patrons of Husbundry. He is
a "dirt" farmer; n real honcst-te-God
tiller of the- soil.
Glfferd Pinchot is nlse a Granger.
LIke McSparran, he is a leading num
ber of thai strictly agricultural aggre
gation. Moreover, his life work has
been identified with farming interests.
He owns and epeiatcs farms.
If he is nominated as the Republican
candidate, Mr. McSparran would net
have an exclusive claim te the nffectieni
nnd suffrages of the farming element.
New accessions te Pinchot's cause
have largely been from the class of Re
publicans who arc unbosfeed. And there.
Is a large element of that kind in the
State,
In it previous article nt the outbreak
of hostilities I snld that it would he
"the field against Grundy," meaning,
of course, his candidate.
Today that statement can be reiter
ated with ndded einphusls. The rem
nants of the Republican organization
, Mr. Grundy's desires. Why?
Becauc by a process of elimination,
if they can de this, then they will turn
their forces against tilUerd 1'incliet,
I who Is no man's man.
Governer Sproul has net jet declared
Pinchot candidacy. He lias bald
"I can get along all right with Glf Glf
eord Pinchot."
In a talk with the Governer he ex
pressed u lively interest In the Pinchot
fight. He is net for Plsiicr. The
Mnckey claims en his support arc weak
ening. Bcidlcmau has no show lu that
direction.
But the Governer has net jet said,
"I will support Glfferd Pinchot."
He leaves for Chicago tomorrow,
where he gees te deliver an impertnnt
address before tlie great international
gathering there of Cnnndinns and Americans.

veloped te show Congress erred In re
turning the reads te their owners. '
"What the railroads need mere than
anything else nt the present time," he
asserted, "Is an opportunity under the
terms of the Transportation Act te work
out their problems without unnecessary
and burdensome interference, nnd T
have the utmost cenfidencf! that they
will successfully surmount present diffi
culties If given a fair chance te de se,
"I am r.lse confident that they will
provide the jieeple of this country with
adequate transportation at reasonable
rtitcs and lower rates than ere te be
found for similar servlep in any ether
country In the world. This the rail
roads did de under the faulty scheme
of regulation In effect before the war,
and hew much mere should they be
able te de se under a better and wiser
schenie of regulation new in effect."
Mr. Wlllard said Federal control
of the carriers wns net designed te
test the relative advantages et pri
vate nnd public operation, but te' help
win the war.
"Any steps taken. In that direction
during the period of Federal control
and which resulted In any manner In
imical te the best interests of the pub
lie or of the carrier properties," he
added, "were unfair, unwarranted and
illegal because they were net justified
by law."
He emphasised that in 1020, nfter
termination of Federal control, the
railroads carried 2 per cent mere freight
than while in charge of the Govern
ment. Contentions of Mr. McAdoo that the
Government rctnrncd'thc reads In Bet
ter condition than when they were
taken ever were denied by Mr. Wil
lurd, who said the carriers' contentions
were that their condition was depre
ciated and had an important bearing en
future dates.
"The difference In standard, hew
ever great, must be made up," he said, I
"and unless it is madc.up from moneys
paid te tlie carriers by the Director '
General en account of under-malnte-
nance, it will, of course, hnvc te be '
done with moneys collected from the
people through the medium of trans
portation charges. The question Itself
had a very Intimate relation with the
future basis of rates." ,
Mr. Wlllard presented detailed evi
dence in the case of the Baltimore and
Ohie te show that the condition of
cars, locomotives and roadway was net
ns geed when Federnl control ended
ns when the line was taken ever.
