J " ' ii iatS • t 10dAi«lv THURSDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH JANUARY 6, 1916. Auditor General Makes Clear His Position on Newspaper Solicitors Auditor General Powell lias hit some alleged busy Individuals squarely be tween the eyes In a circular letter to newspaper publishers. It appears cer tain newspapers have been solicited by persons who aliened ability to assist in placing the official escheat adver-. tising of the department under the act of June -i, 1915, and that within the last ten days an effort has been made "to Induce publishers to send requests for such advertising-, together with cir culation affidavits, to agents, such agents to present them later to the ■ Auditor General." Bang! comes the answer from Capi- . tol Hill, the Auditor General, through] his chief clerk. William Biugham Kay, i declaring in the letter in question that I no agent can render publishers any ! assistance in this respect. It is flatly declared that Auditor General Powell does not deal with or through agents in the placing of this or any other advertising. He will deal directly with the newspapers and in no other way. The Auditor General states that the letter is written that there may be a proper understanding and for the pro tection of the newspapers. ACTOR DIIOS Philadelphia, Jan. fi. Harrison Steadman, of Cleveland, a member of a theatrical company playing in this city, died suddenly In a hotel to-day. Death was due to heart disease. URIC ACID ' SOLVENT • 50 Cent Bottle (32 Doses; FREE Just because you start the day wor ried and tired, stiff legs and arms and muscles, ah aching head, burning and bearing down pains in the back —worn out before the day begins do not think you have to stay in that condi tion.

It proposes the creation of aj I mobile federal force of more than a | million men in six years, accumulation | of a huge reserve of ammunition and equipment and elaborate extension of the coast defenses, the whole project Involving an increased expense of $600,000,000 and an annual War De partment budget thereafter of more than $20,000,000 as compared with an average of $100,000,000 for the last few years. "The integrity of the nation and Its very existence," the Secretary said, reading from a lengthy statement he had prepared, "may depend upon what is done in this matter at this time. This great opportunity will be lost unless a wise, sensible and practical policy is the result of the consideration and ac tion of this Congress." Referring to the farspread military responsibilities of the nation, reach ing into the Insular possessions, China, Alaska, and the Panama Canal Zone, Mr. Garrison added: Must Stand Ready "We have determined and announc ed that the sovereignty of the other republics on this hemisphere shall re ,maln inviolable, and must therefore at all times stand ready to make good our position in this connection." He then quoted figures to show the (full strength of the army on June 30 1a5t—105,993 officers and men of the combatant forces, and their present distribution. To these should be add ed, he said, 1,183 officers and 17,818 men of the noncombatant arms of the service, bringing the total number of federal troops up to 106,619. He pointed out that the item of pay alone made up approximately 50 per cent, of the total proposed appropriations. Turning to the National Guard Mr. Garrison said: "At the present time this force con sists of approximately 129,000 men and officers, and it would therefore be nec essary if it is to be.expended to 400,000 to add 271,000 men and officers. "If this policy should be attempted to be adopted. Congress would first have to require the State to raise and maintain all of these troops and the States would have to practically treble their existing equipment. X do not know whether Congress would have any power to impose this burden upon the States. It seems to me that a mere statement o ft his situation In dicates liow utterly futile it is to at tempt this solution." Sigler Factory to Put New Type of Action on Market C. M. Sigler, president of the Sigler Piano Player Company, Derry and . Carlisle streets, this morning anounced that his company is about ready to place on the market a new type of piano player action, "the double valve." The Sigler company has been sup plying New York manufacturers for some time with a single valve action, and the completion of the new type, Mr. Sigler points out will open up a new Held of business, since many man ufacturers of player pionos favor single valve types and others favor the dou ble valve. Mr. Sigler says that from present indications, it will not be long until his firm is shipping an average of from five to eight thousand actions per year to all parts of the United States.

WILLIAM PENN WAY BOOSTED [Continued From First Paso.] qualntances of influence in this lo cality in an effort to bring it around this way, and would be pleased to at tend the meeting: in view whenever it is decided to have it." Tyrone Boosting, Too An enthusiastic letter was also re ceived from N. C. McConahy, secre tary of the Tyrone Motor Club, which reads as follows: "We desire to say that, the people of Tyrone, through this club, will do everything possible to have the route leading through here and Altoona designated as a part of the new high way. 1 believe we could easily se cure twenty-five influential citizens residing here to come to Harrisburg for the William Penn Highway meet ing." Suggested Route Follows Peiinsy The route that seems to meet with the approval of the majority of peo ple is one that oloseiy follows the main line of the Pennsylvania Railroad from here to Pittsburgh, including such towns as Duncannon, Newport, Mifflin, I„ewistown, Huntingdon, Bir mingham, Tyrone. Bellwood, Altoona, Cresson, Johnstown, Greensburg. etc. This route when properly advertised by the William Penn Highway en thusiasts will bring the tide of auto mobile travel from east and west in Pennsylvania by a route that touches all of the principal cities between Pittsburgh and the Delaware river, showing them as noted scenery as there is anywhere in the United States and touching the State Capitol. Superior Accommodations Hotel and garage accommodations on this new route are alone sufficient to make it superior to the I.incoln Highway. In fact parties who use the T-incoln Highway out of Phila delphia will no doubt leave it at Gettysburg, proceed north to Harris burg and thence to Pittsburgh via the William Penn Highway. The suggeslion has been made that the William Penn Highway be con tinued from Harrisburg through the Lebanon and East Penn Highways, via Reading and Allentown to Easton, giving tourists from New York to the west and from the west to New York an air line across the State of Penn sylvania.

"We have the greatest country, with the greatest opportunities, and may properly be hopeful and confident." Peace May Come Soon Judge Gary referred to the Kuro pean conflict, which he intimated may not be long protracted, in its prevail ing application to prevailing prosper ous economic conditions. He called attention to the dangers of overpro duction or inflation by manufacturers and bankers resulting from overconfl dence, and the aid of the Government is invoked for adequate protection of the country's industries. Then Judge Gary issued a warning against overcontidence and inflation, having in view conditions at the end of the war. His statement says:— "When there is possible danger ahead the locomotive engineer is di rected by his rules, formal instruc tions and signs to proceed with cau tion; and sometimes to stop, look and listen. We may draw an analogy. I would offer words of caution. We are proceeding at a rapia pace. There is great expansion at present. T fear there is great inflation. Some of the circumstances surrounding the finan cial and industrial world are peculiar and not justified. There will be jars and jolts when eyes are opened and things become normal. We ought to stop, ponder, reason. We shall be all the better for it. T-egitimate enter prise and prosress will be benefited if we read all the signs, consider the past and reflect upon the future. European Ruin May React "I believe the war of Europe will not be so long protracted as many, if not the most of men, predict. This opinion is based principally upon two grounds. In the first place it seems apparent that little, if any, benefit to any belligerent country or to the world at large can result from the war, except and unless it be the firm establishment of an international tribunal for the settlement of all In ternational differences, one that Is universal and practical and whoso de crees are enforceable: one that will prevent the prolongation of war In the future. This can be created, If so, negotiations for peace and for such results should be opened at once and pushed to a conclusion. There will never be a better time. Belligerents Starving "If one side or the other should absolutely conquer the other side (which seems impossible, unless the war is carried to an extent that would leave the surviving peoples pf the present generation of all the nations helpless and hopeless) there would be 110 need nor disposition for an inter national tribunal. The leaders of an the nations must realize and appre ciate these facts and are' likely to act upon them soon. "The other ground for my belief Is that each of the warring nations is starving for men and money, both. They do not admit it, but the signs are plenty and convincing. "But, whenever the war shall close, the business of this country will be confronted with new conditions. The purchasing power of the whole world will have been very greatly reduced. Foreign countries who are now buy ing our products, because compelled, will withdraw their patronage in a large measure. Other nonproducing countries will find their financial re sources and credits lessened. More than this, foreign producers, in great need, will strive more diligently than ever to supply the countries that are financially able to pay and at prices based upon cheap labor and low cost, as they have a perfect right to do. Urges Protection "Our producers. including our wage-earners will find themselves in commercial antagonism with the most persistent and difficult, competition ever experienced, unless this shall be prevented by laws that are reason able and sufficient. This is not. a question of politics, nor for political parties as such. It is one of eco nomics and of good business and it affects all the people. It. is a question of the greatest good to the greatest number. There should be an effort to ascertain and establish a line of justice and fairness between the pro ducer and the consumer.

Financial, com mercial and industrial interests of this country may he firmly establish ed on an independent and invulner able foundation, but there must he co-operation between ail classes and departments, private and public. "We must be prepared for radical changes in volume, in prices and re sources. There is danger of over production. over-extension of credit and liabilities, over-confidence. We have observed this before and we shall see it again. It is possible tho banks will over-extend their credits, particularly in favor of foreign inter ests who offer attractive rates, but. they will take care of that, matter for themselves. We businessmen should realize there is possible danger ahead in the business outlook, and if we proceed with caution, however ag gressively, we will have done no harm and we may hereafter nave reason for congratulation.
