Goodrich I Company of Akron. Ohio, declared it- j self willing to throw open its books j and records to an independent audit ' company if other companies will do the same, that the Goodrich Company may prove it manufactures more auto mobile and truck tires combined than any other concern in America. The challenge states that the Goodrich Company manufactured in the last year more than 2.950,000 tires. The formal wording of the chal lenge follows: "To any rubber or tire manufactur ing concern which claims production | and sale of as many auto and truck I tires combined (by any or all of its United States factories) as were pro- j duced and sold'by the Akron (Ohio) factory of the B. F. Goodrich Com- | pany during the latest fiscal year of I each we extend this challenge.' "Wo will throw open our books and records of tire manufacture and sale to a fair and Impartial audit, super vised by a committee of three to be mutually agreed upon, provided the competing tire concern or concerns will do the same.' "We will abide by the result of that audit, and agree that all rubber «r tli^:* oaiwnw who are parties there, to be free to publish the certified find ings of that audit as to tho compara tive volume of each companv's com bined auto and truck tire production and sale. "We confine the audit to the pro duction and sale of uuto and truck tires combined to those made In the American (U. S. A.) factories of each concern, thus excluding our own for eign factory and the foreig- factories of all competitors. "We do this because the volume of these foreign factories cannot mate rially help in lowering the cost of production and the selling of tires, as made by the American factories of each, and because some American rub ber concerns have no foreign fac tories. , "We claim and know that the Ak ron (Ohio* factory of the 13.

SATURDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH JANUARY 8, 1916. RA/LRQADNEVS i TWENTY MILES OF NEW YARD TRACKS Big Improvements at Ruther ford Yards to Start Early in April Plans for improvements in Rulhor ford yards may Include twenty miles of new tracks. Work is scheduled to start in April as soon as weather will permit. Preliminary work in the way of filling in and grading, may start within two weeks. At present, because of the heavy freight traffic lit tle work can be done. The improvements scheduled. In ad dition to new tracks, will include two automatic signal towers, new houses for switchmen and yard crews, en larged roundhouse, and two or more! overhead bridges. The latter were added to the plans, after orders had been issued that employes must not cross the tracks in going to and from work. Track extensions will be made along the entire Harrisburg division. Pres- j ent sidings are too short for the new engines which are hauling longer trains. Resides eight and ten more sidings, it is said, will be placed on Harrisburg division and four more along the P..H. and P., branch between Harrisburg and Shlppensburg. RAILROAD NOTES The Philadelphia and Reading Rail way company is rushing empty cars to the anthracite mines. There is a big demand for hard coal. The new freight engines on the Reading are being equipped with auto matic stokers. Charles M. Williams, manager of the Pennsylvania station barber shop, is now the owner. He purchased the C. H. Wolfe Interest. A dispatch from Peking, China, says a corps of American engineers and machinists are erecting 450 locomo tives at Harbin. They are for the Russian government. In order to relieve further conges tions on the New York division the Pennsylvania railroad on Sunday will take, off the Federal Express running between Boston and Washington.

SIGN'S POINT TO RECORD BUSINESS FOR THIS YEAR The trade reviews report a bright outlook. Rradstreet's says that signs point to a record business in 1916. Dun's says: "Preparations for the further extension of American enter prise are undertaken with increased vigor at the end of the holiday season. Domestic finances are in an unusually sound position and funds continue superabundant for all legitimate re quirements. while there Is no lack of the confidence essential to the launch ing and promotion of important projects. "Unlike the beginning of 1915, the new year starts with a record produc tion and distribution—at high prices— in many lines and an accumulation of forward contracts that insures a con tinuance of the exceptional activity in about all branches of business." Rradstreet's says: "Wholesale trade Is marked by less then the usual sea sonal dullness, jobbers continue busy on filling in orders and new Spring business, retail trade is stimulated by post-holiday sales as well as by cold weather over a wide area, industry proceeds at, high speed and a remark able degree of unanimtty exists as to the very favorable character of pros pects for 1916, most signs pointtng to a record business." CHAMBER TO CO-OPERATE The Harrisburg Chamber of Com merce will co-operate with the local Building Inspector in providing a new building code. A .committee has been appointed and will confer with James H. Grove, local inspector, at an eurly date. INDICTED ON CHARGES OF HELPING GERMANY DAN/ID H. LAMAR,. F. £>. MONNETT. 4i 'J'** 1 * persona have been indicted in New York on tlie charge of violating tiie Sherman Art, in that they ore said to have tried to cripple American fac tories and industries in the interest of Germany. Among them are: One mem ber or ( ongress from Illinois, Frank Buchanan; one former member from the /SJT 1 * vJatf* H. Robert Fowler; Frank S. Monnett, former attorney general of Uhlo; David Lamar. the very well-known character in Wall Street, and Franz von Kintelen, who handled much money for the German government here. \° t n Kintelen is now in the Tower of London, as a spy. The British will likely attend to his punishment without the aid of the American courts. Parents and the Child By VIRGINIA TERHI'XE VAN DE WATER 0 opvright, 1915. International News Service.) Most unspoiled, and therefore happy children regard their parents as well nigh infallible. They may indoed will—at times feel swift rebellion when the father or mother opposes some cherished plan, but such vexa tion is ot short duration. As the child's temper subsides and he becomes once more his sane and sensible self, there returns to him the conviction that what the parents has prohibited would really not have been good for him. Without any wisn to seem 'irrev erent I might say that the little one's attitude is very much like that of t'ne religious person, who, in the first flush of a great disappointment, almost doubts the kindness of God, yet, as he returns to his normal state of nund, remembers that the Ruler of the Uni verse makes no mistakes. As children do think of their fath ers and mothers in this comfortable and comforting way. is it not a pity when one of the parents disturbs such confidence? I do not think that the mother who complains to the child of his father appreciates what turmoil she Is causing in the childish heart, nor what trouble she may be laying up for herself in the future. She lets indignation or displeasure get the better of her discretion and speaks without consideration of the conse quences. Long ago I heard an Irritable wife exclaim in the presence of her seven year-old son, "I do wish your father would come home In time for dinner! There is no sense in his staying at the office so late. He promised to be home to-night on time." "Then, mother,' asked the child, wonderingly, "why does he stay down town now when he said he would be home at dinner time?" The day had been hot and the mother was tired. Her servant had left her, and she herself had had to cook the dinner; she had made a souffle that would be spoiled by standing. She spoke out her angry and untrue thought. "He stays away, son, just to worry me!" she declared. I was fourteen when this incident occurred —a vliitor in this home. Yet I recall the throb of pity I had for the seven-year-old boy as he caught bis breath at this statement. Even I. scarcely more than a child, knew that my hostess was angry, and therefore hardly responsible for what she said. The Sad Consequences. "Oh!" the boy gasped. "Does father do that, mother Does he stay away just to worry you? And when he promised to come home, too?" BRITISH CRUISER NATAL BLOWN UP IN HARBOR irrr —nr-imri — TTTITMI """"M^MMJWWWluilllllllllllMUllll^^^^ &AJT/S/f "CM.U/SEK. SVATA4*. &/MTC. H. M. S. Natal, a British armored cruiser, which blew up, "by internal explosion" in a harbor, according; to an admiralty rrport. About 400 of the Natal's crew of "25 were saved. \ 111 1912 the Natal spent two weeks in New York harbor after conveying; the body of Whitelaw Reid, American Ambussudor to Kngland, to this country from Portsmouth. The Nalal was completed in 190" at Barrow and had a speed of about 23 knots. She displaced* 13.600 tons and was 480 feet long and 73 feet beam. 1 In addition to two torpedo tubes and small armament she carried six 9.2-inch and four 7.6-inlh Runs. The Natal ts the third British warship blown up in harbor, by "internal explosion." The Uuiwark blew up In Shearneßs Harbor on November 20, 1914, and the Princess Irene was destroyed by a similar explosion in tilieerness slarbor. May 27. 1910, His mother made no reply, and there was a moment's silence before the lad spoke again. When he did there were tears in his eyes. "I don't love father," he said. The woman turned upon him re provingly. "I am ashamed of you, Ned," she cliided. "You are a naughty boy to say that you do not. love your father. He is \*ery good to you al ways." "He is not good to you!" the lad quavered. "He tries to worry you and he broke his promise to you." Poor little fellow! Y'ears after ward, when the nervous., over wrought mother had passed away from earthly worries, and when I heard that the father had no influ ence over his impulsive, wayward son, I could not help wondering if the seeds of rebellion against the father had not been unwittingly sown by the loving mother when the child was too young to discriminate be tween just condemnation and unrea sonable anger. A husband and wife cannot alwavs approve of what the other does, but each can seem to do so when in the presence of the children. If there must be altercations or arguments as to what the little ones shall or shall not do let it be when the subjects of such discussion are not within earshot. Children are keen observers and deep thinkers. '"May I go to the circus to-morrow, daddy'.'" one small girl asked. Her manner awakened her father's suspicions. What does mother say about it?' 'he questioned. The child flushed. "Oh, well, she said I couldn't go till Saturday, but I thought perhaps you'd say I could." "Don't mother and I always say the same thing about what you may do?" the father asked. "Oh, yes, daddy—when you know what the other one says. But this time you didn't know—«o 1 thought perhaps you'd say yes," remarked the little schemer. She had already learned that her father and mother agreed with re gard to what was good for her. When parents have established that certain ty in the minds of their children, they have done much toward winning un shaken confidence and absolute obedience. "If my father and mother disagreed about the management of us young sters," one woman told me, 'we never suspected it. As I look back, I re member that when father forbade a thing. It was just as if mother had forbidden It too. Other children up pealed from one parent to Another. W® never did. It saved us a lot of trouble," she added with a laugh. And it also saved the parents "u Io! of trouble." HOT DEBATE ON HYPHENS HELD Gardner Attacks Germans; Longworth and Others Denounce Him Special to the Tclccrapli Washington, D. C.. Jan. B.—The out lying issues of the European war as embodied In the pro-German demand for an embargo on American ship ments of munitions and the agitation to prevent Americans from traveling on belligerent ships were brought squarely before the House yesterday in a series of speeches. A speech by Representative Gardner of Massachusetts excoriating the pro- German demand for an embargo on (he shipment of munitions started the trouble. .Mr. Gardner denounced the demand for an enihargo as "unpatri otic," and frankly arraying himself on the side of the entente allies, declared that he never would approved a move to stop the war "with the plunder In Germany's grasp." He charged that the Germans were "savages." engaged in an attempt to subvert the democracy of Europe, and he Insisted that Germans were per fectly willing io use "gold or dyna mite" to prevent ammunition from ! reaching the allies. Defense of I lie Germans The attack made by Mr. Gardner brought prompt replies from Repre sentatives Stafford and Cooper, of Wis consin, and Longworth, of Ohio, son in-law of Colonel Roosevelt, who eulo gized the Germans as patriotic and law-abiding citizens. "The speech we have just heard," declared Mr. Cooper, addressing Mr. Gardner, "is such as much have been made in the British house of com mons." , Mr. Stafford, who represents a Mil waukee district, described Mr. Gardner as "more Briton than American," and as the author of a base libel on the good name of Germans in the United States. "I resent the Imputation that Ger man Americans are contemptuous of the law and disloyal to the flag as wholly and absolutely false," said Mr. Longworth, who spoke next. "The Germans are as law abiding and patri otic as any other body of our citi zens. This is not the time to bring up the question of restricting expor tation of arms and ammunition. To do so merely fans the flames of racial hatred. "I regret that Mr. Gardner made such a speech. It was reckless and Intemperate. It demonstrates In strik ing fashion that the gentleman does not know the sterling qualities of Ger mans who have become naturalized American citizens." Mr. Gardner discussed in a rather critical vein the negotiations of the United States with Germany over sub marine warfare. After mentioning the ships that had gone down with Ameri cans on board as a result, of submarine attack Mr. Gardner expressed the hope that the President would settle these disputes with Germany before con sidering an embargo "for Germany's benefit." ENGINE WITH TWO PISTONS FOR EACH CYLINDER A simple and practical solution of the problem of making an internal combustion engine in which the pistons are forced apart by the explosion of the gas between them has been worked out. in England. This engine necessarily has two cylinders with piston rod 4 working side by side on one shaft. The cylinders have open ends and the top piston in each cylinder is con nected by a diagonal rod with the bot tom piston in the other cylinder. With this arrangement the cylinders work alternately and the power is trans mitted equally to both crank arms when the pistons in either cylinder are thrust apart by an explosion. The obliquity of the diagonal rods is small, being less than the maximum obliquity of the rods that connect the piston rods with the crank arms. The engine is of the two-cycle type, and each crank arm therefore receives two impulses to each revolution of the shaft. —From the Popular Mechanics Magazine. THE REINCARNATION OF INDIA In India caste is breaking down and the influence of Christian teaching has beeii made manifest in a very earnest attempt to grade Hinduism up to the Christian level. India is beginning to have a new national consciousness, and she seeks a truly Indian religion. The reincarnation of the soul of Hinduism can only prove the emptiness of the shell; and there is growing evidence that India will soon be ready to wel come a Christianity that is produced in India through Indian lives and by Indian methods — The Christian Her AI.II. DESTROYERS SPREAD SMOKE SCREEN The new 1,000-ton destroyers of the United States Navy are equipped with oil burners for producing a heavy cloud of smoke that drifts on the surface and serves to conceal an attack on the enemy or to screen a battleship fleet from attack.

POCKET DEVICE SUBSTITUTE FOR CAMERA TRIPOI> When he is without a tripod or an adequate substitute for one, an amateur photographer often experiences diffi culty in finding a means of holding a camera while making a time or bulb exposure. To obviate this and also do away with the trouble of carrying a tripod, a New York inventor has de signed a folding device, small enough to be slipped into a vest pocket, which may be secured to a tree, or some other convenient object, to support a camera. It has two sharp prongs which, when pressure is applied against a small lever, fasten themselves in the bark of a tree or in other wooden ob jects against which they are set. A friction clamp attached to this holds the camera. By folding back the prongs and employing another fasten ing medium which is provided, the same device may be fixed to a stone or metal surface or to polished furniture. A picture of the device Is given in the Popular Mechanics Magazine. The New Labor Law The new Workmen's Compensation Act goes into effect January Ist, next.
