OH With "Gets-It"
S Drops, and the Corn is a "Goner:*"
When you've got to walk on tlie sides
of your shoe to get away from those
•wful corn-pains, there's only one com
mon-sense thing to do. Put 2or 3 drops
re "Gel.-Itl" Your Corn* on't
Swell In Water. Upsides. They'll
' Shrivel, l.ooaen and feel Off!
of "Gets-It" on the corn right away. 1
Pain and inflammation will disapear,
the corn will begin to shrivel from that
instant—then it loosens and falls right
oft.
There's no other corn-remover in the
•world that acts like "Gets-It." No new
discovery has been made in corn-re
tnovers since "Gets-It" was born. Don't
forget that fact. "Gets-lt" does away
forever with the use of salves that ir
ritate. bandages that make a bundle
of your toe. plasters that half do the
work, knives and scissors that draw
blood. Use "Gets-It"—no more digging
or cutting.
"Get-It" is sold everywhere, 25c a
bottle, or sent on receipt of price by E.

CHANGE PENNSY
PENSION PLAN
Fix Minimum Rate For Veter
ans Who Cannot Earn
Full Wages
Changes in the method of determin- !
ing the amount of pensions to be paid
to retired Pennsylvania Railroad em
ployes. east of Pittsburgh and Erie,,
♦ill affect a number of local pen- j
sioners. a minimum of Jls per month !
has been fixed. This will give all re- j
tired employes a pension. At present i
some have left active service without!
a pension allowance. Others receive
very small amounts. The new system
is now in effect.
The purpose of the change is to pro
tect employes who are unable by rea
son of sickness or infirmity to earn
full time during the closing years of'
their service. It has been the eus-j
torn when an employe is in poor health i
to place him on the relief until the'
time for his retirement. This would j
mean u small return when retired on
a pension.
Pay Pensions Monthly
Pension allowances are now paidj
monthly by the railroad on the basis;
of 1 per cent, of the average regular ;
monthly pay, during the ten years pre
ceding retirement, for each year of |
service with the company. Under this!
method, it has been found tljat in;
some cases the employes, on account
of sickness or old age, were unable
to make full time during the ten-year |
period, which resulted in a reduction I
in the amounts of pensions they would i
otherwise have received.
The New Plan
Under the new plan. In order to ar-!
rive at the average monthly pay of :
an employe who has been unable to
make full time, the total amount of
money earned during the last ten years !
will be divided by the total number i
of months or parts thereof he wasj
actually engaged. In case an employe!
should not be engaged at all during |
the ten-year period, the pay he re
ceived for the last full month, work
ing under normal conditions, will be
considered his average pay under the
new regulation.
The new system will not only affect
employes who retire after January 1
this year, but will give to the veterans
who have been receiving a small pen
sion, the minimum amount.
BIG TIME AT IUTHKRFOKD
The annual meeting of the Ruther
. ford~ T. M. C. A. will be held Tuesday
night, January 23 at o'clock. Gen-1

ingr, the several experts who have !
studied the problem favor a circular i
system of street railway operation j
around an extended oval in the center i
of the square. It is believed that In •
this way the serious congestion will j
be overcome; that by running the'
cars southward through Market |
Square on the western side of the :
oval and returning on the eastern
side northward in Second street will :
eliminate present difficulties.
V. It. C. Terminal Will Help
There is ;ilso an Intimation that |
the inevitable terminal of the Valley
Railways Company in Walnut street j
and a possible two-track arrangement j
in the same street will reduce the I
conßestion resulting from the running I
of the 'cross-river cars from Walnut i
to Market Square in Second street, i
These cars not only block the main j
city lines but interfere seriously with
automobile and other traffic in Sec- i
ond street.
All these matters will have to be ;
worked out by the expert who will be ;
employed under the provision of the i
ordinance now pending in Council. !
Incidental to the change of the traf- j
fic system now in operation and the 1
erection of an isle of safety in the j
heart of the Square is a proposition '
to provide public comfort facilities!
in the suggested oval. Upon this 1
question, however, there Is a wide di- |
versity of opinion and very general
public protest. It is the thought of j
those who are now getting awake to |
the proposition that the center of aj
network of street railway lines and!l
constantly increasing automobile and!
other traffic is hardly the place for
public comfort stations. It is believed !
there would be constant dnngor to i
women and children in the crossing j
of the street car tracks and the rush- !
ing stream of vehicular travel.
I'llvor Sidewalk Stations
While the people authorized a loan i
of $25,000 for certain Market Square :
ehnnges they have never been strong'
for the proposed public comfort end i
of the proposition. The general ex- I
pression heard everywhere is that !
these facilities should be provided ]
along the sidewalks in the central !
part of the city with entrances similar '
to the subways in the metropolitan !
j cities.
Suggest Courthouse As I'laee
If it is not feasible to place the
| public comfort stations on the Market |
street side of the Courthouse —!
I women on one side, men on the other 1
then it is suggested that other
locations in the business and shopping ;
district should be provided. But the j
placing of these facilities in the open !
plaza even underground is very gen- i
erally opposed.
Experts employed by the Municipal
League have made a study of the i
Market Square conditions, but no (
two agree upon a plan. Generally
they favor a continuous movement '
around an oval or isle of safety j
which arrangement would block all
: travel through Market street east and I
west. This arrangement was favored i
by the New York traffic officers who i
! came here some months ago at the i
instance of Mayor Meals to study the i
j situation. Should it be found ad- !
I visable to close the intersection of
j feccond and Market streets at the cen- ;
!t r I s opinion of many citizens
j that this particular spot should be I
I or " in some dignified fashion I
■ with a statue or monument, not with
a public comfort station.

should be far enough from the build- I
ing line to interfere in no way with 1
the light and air of the stores and
shops. Other experts in landscape!
treatment who have been here from
time to time have also suggested that !
j there ought to be some artistic treat

DOWNPEACE PLAN
[Continued From First Page]
' he hac * had a conference
i with ill lam R. Willcox Republican
national chairman, in which he told
the chairman that the proposed "sup
: plemental committee" to be made up
! °f Progressives and Republicans pro
vided for in the harmony plan would
' not do.
i He renewed his demand for a meet
! ing of the full National Committee to
I take up the question of Republican-
Progressh e co-operation. Among
others he made public a telegram
i from Coleman Du Pont, Republican
j National Committeeman from Dela
. ware, indorsing his stand.
Perkins to-day received more tele
grams and letters from Progressive
leaders all over the country congratu
; latins him on his stand in refusing to
accept the harmony plan proposed by
I the subcommittee of the executive
■ committee of the Republican national
i committee. Among the telegrams was
i one from Governor and Senator-elect
(Hiram Johnson, of California, as fol
lows:
| "With you in your efforts to make
j the Republican party progressive. I
: am in fullest sympathy and hearty
accord. Go to it and all Progressives
I will be with you."
Raymond Robins, presiding officer
I of the Chicago convention of the Pro
gressive party, held a long conference
to-day with Mr. Perkins in which he
' told Mr. Perkins he was in thorough
j accord with his stand.
William H. Willcox, chairman of the
j Republican national committee, to-day
| declined to say when or whether a
j meeting of the national committee
j would be called to take up the slt
i uation as demanded by Mr. Perkins.
I He said the subcommittee of nine on
I harmony had not yet met to consider
I Mr. Perkins' action and would not
I meet within the next two or three
I days. He indicated that the matter
i would not be brought before the na
tional committee until the subcommit
| tee had taken it up.
John Hays Hammond's Plan
John Hays Hammond, president of
the National Republican League, wrote
Chairman Willcox urging him to call
together the Republican National
Committee to take up the situation.
Mr. Willcox said that he had taken
no formal action in connection With
the harmony plan controversy, but
that he had met and talked with many
Republicans and Progressives about It.
"This committee as proposed would
be impotent," Mr. Perkins said. "We
want a committee representative of
both parties which shall have real
powers. This is a crisis In the afTairs
of the Republican party and we want
to see what the Republicans arc go
ing to do about it.
"If they don't want us Progressives
with them to oppose the Incompetent
Democratic administration why we
want to know that. If they won't call
together the National Committee, why,
we want to know that as a basis for
our future action. If they do call the
committee together and it refuses to
act. that will be the basis of our future
action. But whatever their attitude,
this is the time to declare it, not on
the eve of the next national election."

Warren, of Michigan, to confer with
myself and Mr. Colby. Mr. Willcox
called at my house, at 76 Park avenue,
yesterday and asked Mr. Colby and
myself to hold a conference with the
committee of three.
"We declined naturally, and I in
formed Mr. Willcox politely, but firm

laid down in my statement. That is.
that the matters at issue must be
taken up by the Republican National
Committee itself and not by any sub

London Admits Loss of
Cargoes Will Be Felt on
Top of U-Boat Depredations
Ix>ndon. Jan. 18. No definite news
of the operations of the German raider
in the South Atlantic Is published here
this morning beyond the official an
nouncement in regard to the loss of
ships. The statements of the ad
miralty and Lloyds are given a promi
nent place in the morning papers,
which otherwise print nothing but
comment and speculation.
It is generally admitted that the
raider may possibly enjoy a long im
munity as it is recognized that it is
raster to find a needle in a haystack
than a ship, bent on eluding capture,
in the Atlantic.
Anxiety is expressed over the fate of
cargoes of grain and meat from
I Argentine and steel from the United
JANUARY 18,1917.
T ~ "T
States. It is admitted that the loss
of such cargoes may be severly felt i
coming on top of the depredations of)
the submarines.
A number of steamers, distinct from
the victims of the raiders, are posted •
at Lloyd's as missing. The raider is
assumed to be identical with the ves
sel reported on December 4, but there ,
is nothing to indicate whether it j i
dodged the British cordon in the North j;
Sea or started its career from some!
j neutral port.
Underwriters and Ship
Owners in State of Nervous j
Tension Over Sinking
New York, Jan. 18. With the
possibility that the German sea raider
, which sank or captured from 15 to a
score of allied ships is still continuing
her depredations, steamship owners
and marine underwriters were in a
state of nervous tension to-day. The
losses in ships and cargoes thus far I
' represent from $15,000,000 *to $20,-1
; 000,000.
A cordon of British cruisers, re- j
ported to number fifteen, is believed !
; to be sweeping the Southern seas in
search of the raider, which, accord
' ing to one report, may be the auxiliary
• cruiser Vineta; according to another
the cruiser Moewe, the same sea rover
■ which played havoc with allied ship
• ping about a -year ago.
Steamship circles were especially
> concerned to-day over a wireless
• warning that the German raider was
working northward to more frequented/
lanes of steamship travel. The possi
bility that the raider may have armed
and manned one or more of her prizes ]
1 and dispatched them also on com
merce preying missions was another
source of anxiety to-day. One report
was that the British steamer St. Theo
dore was thus transformed.
' Definite news of the fate of this!
vessel and of the Yarrowdale, re-j
ported to have on board some of the;
crews of other captured vessels, was i
still lacking to-day.
THREE MORE SUNK
I London, Jan. 18. Lloyd's an-1
nounces that the British steamer!
Auchen Crag, 3,916 tons, the sailing
ship Kinpurney and the Danish
' steamer, Omsk, 1,574 tons, have been
s sunk.

PROTECTORATE IN MOROCCO

nized by the United States in a note

\ j pie of the ITntted States entertain a
