HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
ITALY DESERTS HER FORMER AL
LIES
[From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.]
Italy prefers to construe its treaty
obligations in a way to conserve it i
material interests. Had the Kingdom
anything to gain by making common
cause with Germany and Austria-Hun
gary, a way would have been found for
interpreting the terms of the Triple Al
liance so as to make it a hard and fast
offensive and defensive compact. But
Italy has everything to lose und noth
ing to gain by taking up arms against
England, France and Russia, If the
Italians make common cause with
France It is possible they may recover
from Austria some of the territory lost
years ago, and It is probable the Italian
coasts will be unmolested by hostile
fleets. Even though not a single Italian
soldier should enter the field, Italy
should gain something if the Triple En
tente is successful, when the spoils of
war are divided, for a neutral Italy be
comes an ally of the Entente.

Immense Trade Advantages There;

Is Urgent
Special to The Telegraph
Washington, Aug. 10.—The Euro
pean war has developed such a critical
[situation in South America that Direc
tor General John Barrett of the Pan
| American Union, In his capacity as an
international officer—that is, an officer
of all the South American countries as
wel las of the United States—makes
the following urgent appeal to the
commercial and financial interests of
I the United States:
i "As the executive officer of the Pan
j American Union, the organization of
jthe American republics devote to the
! development of commerce, friendship,
intercourse and good will among them
all, I appeal to the hanking, shipping,
manufacturing, exporting' and import
ing interests of the United States to
give at this moment every possible
aid and attention to the critical South
American situation brought on by the
European war. I also ask the news
papers, I nboth their editorial and
news columns, to give all publicity
possible to this matter so that their
constituents interested in this situ
ation may be Informed of their re
sponsibility and opportunity.
"While everybody must- profoundly
regret that a condition of war and
the sufferings of European nations en
gaged in a great conflict should In any
way be exploited for the selfish gain
of the United States, its business in
terests have a duty and responsibility
In this crisis which must be met even
If it may bring them vast material
benefits. Looking at the situation In
a thoroughly unselfish way, it pesents
demunds upon the United States from
Soutl American which cannot be neg
lected, but which, If responded to in
the right spirit, will be enormously
beneficial to South America and the
United States alike." ,

Big Falling Off in Revenue Re
ceipts For First Seven
Months of Year
DECREASE WILL CONTINUE
So Believes William S. Bricker,
New Collector, Who Just
Assumes Office
Statistics compiled at the local of
fice of the Ninth revenue district from
January 1 to August 1, show a falling
off in the use of intoxicants, tobacco,
cigars and cigarets. This decrease, in
the opinion of William's. Bricker who
went into office on August is likely
to continue as sales for August to date
are below that for the same time last
August.
The total receipts up to August 1
were $271,860.83; for the first six
months in 1913, the total receipts were
$3X8,031.53, or a deficit of $46,.178.80
Part of this deficit it is explained Is
due to a slightly higher tax on beer in
1913. The total receipts for the year
1911 were $593,691.10; 1912, $522,-
495.82; 1913, $550,728.39. The month

Great Steel Bar in
Big Electric Sign
Installed on one of the Chicago
electric light company's plants Is a
spectacular sign representing thn
forging of a hot steel bar under a
converted steam hammer, the steam
power having been superseded by
compressed air pumped by an ffe
tric motor using central
energy. 1
Two machine attendants are repre
sented. one operating the control lever
and the other forming the steel bar.
The latter Is seen to place the white
hot bar beneath the hammer, and at
each blow sparks flash out realistic
ally, decreasing in quantity as tho
iron cools. 3y outlining the con
necting rod with a double circuit of
amber and ruby lamps the bar is
made gradually to lose its "white-hot"
color and to assume a "cherry-red''
heat as the hammering continues an<t
the rod cools. The portion of the rorl
held In and adjacent to the hands of
the workman As illuminated with am
ber-colored lamps to represent a lesser
degree of heat.
The movements of the other work
man are particularly realistic. With
his hand on the throttle he moves it.
slightly once or twice, to make sure
the hammer is operating correctly.
Then he throws the valve wide open
and allows the hammer to strike its
full blow.
Installed in the entire sign are 3617
10-watt "tungsten lamps, 1600 of which
are in the flashing portion. The totiil
length of the display is 204 feet and
the height 42 feet, the flashing por
tion being 55 feet wide. The magni

height of the machine attendants, who
are 36 feet tall.—Electrical World.
