REFERENDUM FOR THIRD CUSS CITIES Clark Bill Supplements Clark Com mission Act; 20 Per Cent. Must Sign Petition The bill Introduced in the Senate last night by Senator Clark, of Erie, limiting the score of the initiative and referendum In the third class cities of Pennsylvania was presented at the instance of the third class city solicitors of the State and will have their backing. The measure, which bears the name of the author of the Clark commission form of government law passed at the 1913 session and which it supplements, provides that at the written request of 100 qualified electors of any third class city the city clerk shall prepare a petition praying for the passage of such ordinance as may be presented. This petition is to remain in the office of the city clerk and if within ten days it is signed by 20 per cent, of the number of voters casting ballots for mayor at the last preceding municipal election council must do one of two things—either pass the ordinance wlth alteration or submit it to the people at an election to be held within ninety days of the presentation of the pe tition. In case 20 per cent, do not sign the petition is to remain open for an additional ten days. Not more than one special election is to be held in any six months and an ordinance so passed may not be vetoed except by special election within two years of its passage, but council may submit a proposal fo repeal or amend at the next general election. Any num ber of ordinances may be submitted at one time. Xo ordinance granting a street franchise or consent to occupy highways may become effective until thirty days after its passage, and in case 20 per cent, of the voters petition against it a special election becomes necessary for its passage. The law will not apply to ordinances providing for tax levies, appropriations, exercise of right of eminent domain, nubile peace, health, morals, safety, police powers, the opening, grading and keeping of streets in order, or to any ordinances for increasing the public debt or for which special elections are now necessary. Third Judge For Dauphin County A hill to create a third judge for Dauphin county to relieve the present two judges of the pressure of work was presented in the House last night by John C. Nissley, Second Dauphin district. It is tlie first bill to come from Dauphin county. The bill follows the phraseology of the bill presented last session and pro vides for appointment by the Governor under the state laws and election at the following municipal election. If the bill becomes a law the Gov ernor would appoint this year and an election would be held in No vember. WHY IS A IHJM-DIM? Light on a charge much bandied about by both sides in the present war. At the arsenal in Dum Dum, north ern India, was invented a bullet which has since become notorious or famous, whichever you choose, under the name of the place of its birth. The device was simple and effective. Where teh bullet narrowed to its point and did not bear on the rifling of the barrel it was denuded of its steel coat and its soft lead core exposed. While such a projectile travels through the air it retains its shape, but on meet ing the resistance of a solid body the lead point spreads and splits the jacket and the whole head has a dia meter of . about .GO inch and whose base has a diameter of .30 inch. The sum total of the result of this device is to produce a misile whose striking surface is greater when pass ing through a living body than It is when passing through the air. MARLEY 24 IN.
