KAROLYI'S WIFE POOR;
HAS FERRYBOAT JOB
Hungarian Statesman en Trial for
High Treason
Camden Is In n quandary, especially
ft lending officials und politicians who
are Interested In the doling out of jobs.
Discovery of n law passed In 1007
affecting appointment of many city
officebelderN Is the cauee of the tem
porary con fit 1 en. Should the city de
termine te abide by thin law it would
mean that Trunk Van Hart, the re
tiring Ilepubllcan Mayer, could Indi
rectly control appointments under the
Incoming Democratic iiliniiilitratinti.
At the present time all tire and city
department empleye, except police, are
appointed by Council. The police arc
appointed by the Majer hubject te con cen con
frmatien by Council.
Authorize Heard Appointments
The suddenly discovered 1U07 law
authorizes the appointments of two
beards Beard of Iiblie Werka and
Police and Fire Ueanl. These beurds
of four members each two Democrats
and two Hepublicnns arc te be ap ap
peiutcd by the Majer. Incidentally,
whenever there i a deadlock retarding
proposed appointments the Majer casts
the deciding vote.
InveMigatieu hIieui that wlien thin
law was passed by the Assembly in 11U7
it referred enlj te the city of ratcrn.
In 1010 it was amended te apply te
all cities of mere than 110. M0 popula
tion. Camden passed that mark two
j ears age and is new in the IIO.OUO
classification.
Fermer Mayer lllis. who resisned
lest April te become pesttnuster, was,
asked why this law had net become
effective while he was in office.
"I knew c' the existence of the law
in 1020." he said, "and uhen our pop
ulation placed us in the 110.000 class
I took the matter up with City Con
troller McCord. We both agreed that
it applied te Camden. Then I censultsd
City Solicitor Weakley He told me
the law had been again amended te
apply te cities u 120,000 population.
On hearing that. I was cemlnced I
was wrong and did nothing mere aoeui
the matter."
Blakelcy Is Surprised
Mr. Hlakeley expressed surprise to
day en hearing of the controversy ever
the newly discovered law ami said he
would make a statement later.
Mayer Van Hart said he didn't knew
anything about it. "It's up te the
legal department, ' be added. "If the
1007 law is correct, then something
aheuld have been done before this."
Mayer-elect Victer King, a Demo
crat, declined te make any comment.
Whether Mayer Van Hart will tane
advantage of the terms of the 1007 law
and appoint the new beards and thus
deDrive the lncemine Democratic ad
ministration of tilling their own offices
is a matter of conjecture.

Judge Hnrtwell moved closer te coun

"Yeu haven't the right te tender
a man who admits he'd be an unfair
Jurer," argued the Judge. "Yeu ten
der an unconstitutional juror. When
a man can't be ami won't be a fair
Jurer you can't tender him just te shift
the burden of the examination te the
defense by forcing the defense te chal

"But where a man holds an opinion
and says he can be a fair juror, that
does shift the burden. In this second
case I think the ground for a chal

I think defense ought te challenge for

And defense, did, nnd took the lead
In the questioning of new veniremen.

Scope of Message
Puzzles Harding
reatlnaed' rraai Pas One
times the ether by the advisers who go
In te see him.
The Preeldent faces a difficult de
clslen. The business interests of the
country would like te hnve a vacation
from Congress. The President wishes
te be free from Congress, needing a
vacation for himself and for Mrs. Hard
ing, who Is ill.
On the ether hand, there has just
been organized a movement whose pur
pose is te discredit the Hnrdlng Admin
UtniHnii and te wrest the control of the
Republican Party out of the hands of
Mr. Harding and his friends. Any
failure te satisfy public opinion at this
Juncture may have trave political con
sequences. It is llilw situation which confronted
the Cabinet In Its session today.
All that Is known with any definite
ness about the message Is thnt it will
recommend rural credit legislation.
This Is of three sorts, n new banking
system te make leans of longer terms
than nre pracucaum ier renerui ic
serve Banks, an increase In the amount
that mav be leaned en mortgages te
farmers by the farm lean banks, and a
modification of the biw te make the
smaller banks In rural neighborhoods
eligible for membership in the Federal
Reserve sjstem.
A constitutional amendment putting
an end te tax exemptions en securities
will also be urged by the President.
And the President will renew briefly
his argument for the ship subsidy which
be recommended te Congress in the
special session just closed.
If the President adds te this railroad
legislation it will be because lie bus
yielded te the advice of the Western
Republicans that this Is the only way te
held the Progressive movement In
check.

Somebody at the State Capitel nt
Harrlshurg, under the guise of econ

would make it infinitely easier te slip

The scheme proposes that the custom
of printing copies of all bills Introduced
into the Legislature and printing inse
copies of lhe bills an amended, be abol
ished te save cost of paper and print
ing. These copies of bills and amend
meats make it possible for these wil
low lug legislation te knew Just what

The four middles looked prepared for

whether they were belts and gloves te

All the evidence that has been pre

the ball at u high level, te exclude un

"I was interested ln the first place,"
continued Baker, "in getting the
copies supplied. They nre inxaiuable
te newspaner correspondents end te the
representatives of civic organizations,
such as these of women, which fellow
bills from point le point in the As
fcnibly, from the time they are first
offered, right through their passage
through committees and both houses.
"Lack of the conies would seriously
hamper these interested in getting at
the exact status of legislation and weuiu
make It possible for ull sertB of tricuery

discovered until the bill had passed the
Legislature. Why they talk of saving

mean the less of millions In practical
effect. What a pretest would go up

tions should no copies be supplied. Se
far as 1 am concerned there will be no
durk lunter methods."
Interest Smoothing Path
Mr. Baker is able te take a definite
stand en the question net only because
be is State chairman, but also because
he Is secretary of the Senate.
In political circles this particular
development was received with deep
Interest. It indicated te observers mat
Reeeial interests were striving, in ad
vance, te smooth out their legislative
nat hbv making it difficult te keep tabs
en what was going en in the Held of
legislation. These Interests are all the
mere concerned for the reason that thv
Ooverner-elect intends te listen te no
Interest except that of the Common
wealth.
Barn Fire Suspects

Continued from l'ie Ons
Inst night. Near midnight tlie.v heard
seme one trying te force an entrance
through one of the doers.
The young man slipped out through
another deer nnd watched the intruder
a moment before calling te him te put
up his hands. He was a Negro, de
scribed as tall, weighing about 1.10
pounds and dressed in u dark suit and
light hat.
At the sound of their voices the Negro
started te run in the direction of a
field away from the highway, followed
by the watchers after they had shot
at him. Due te the darkness of the

cuers, nut tne young men continued
their search.
Twenty minutes later they cams

Frank Seeds asked what they were
doing then, lut get no answer. The
man at the wheel started his engine
and drove away.
Running te their home, the men get
their own car and gave chase, but seen
were eluded. The automobile bore a
Pennsylvania license tag. State police
have telegraphed te llarrlihurg te learn
the owner of the car.
State troopers are being mobilized
from all sections of the State te aid
In the investigation by the Pire Pro

Farmers are co-operating in the In
vestigation by maintaining night
watches In their barns. The watchea
are divided by employers and empleyes,
end every man has orders te "sheet

enter the barn unannounced.
The investigation will be under the

"Although sevcrul of the lires were
caused by ordinary causes, such as
