Stroh, of Steelton, Pa., "and I worked at such highN|jressure that I began to run short of steam." "Willing to work, you understand, and glad to be making the extra money, but I guess my tires got full of clinkers and I needed to draw them and start fresh." "I found I was slowing down and couldn't seem to pick up pep enough to keep up the pace. 1 was tired all the time, sleep didn't seem to rest me and 1 felt weak and all run down." "Well, I'd hearil about Tanlac ami tiiiw it had helped lots of folks around here, so I hiked down to Gorgas' and got a bottle on the chance it would me up." "And it sure did. It fixed me up in great shape in almost 110 time at all. Seemed as if the very tirst dose put new life into me and by the time I'd finished the first bottle I felt as if I could work 24 hours every day." "I'm full of pep and ginger these days and have no trouble at all keep ing a full head of steam. I'm working overtime again and the biggest day's work only gives nve an extra good ap petite. Tanlac is great stuff and I'm telling the boys at the works about it."

This means an immense amount of work j and will probably result in the mak ing of the most complete statement known in a long time. In some of the departments things are being calculated down to a nicety, all sorts of expenditures being item ized. The Public Service Commission, which has had a very complete sys tem of accounting, can tell for what purpose most of the postage stamps it used the last two years were em ployed.

Less than $3 00 remains of the amount provided for street paving in the third improvement loan. Be cause of this, Commissioner Lynch ex plained to-day that the only improve ment plans for the year include re pairs and finishing work that has been started. As soon as weather conditions per mit work will be finished on the fol lowing streets which are being paved: Swatara, frttm Eighteenth to Twen ty-first. Green, from Woodbine to Seneca. Susqpelianna from Woodbine to Emerald. Honey from Mt. Pleasant to Chest nut. Much of the concrete, work ha 3 been done, but the surfacing can not be completed because of the weather. As soon as the ice and snow lias been cleared from other streets. In spections will be made so that repair work can be rushed when the asphalt plant is opened again. TJUs will be done probably during the. early part of April. Commissioner LJrnoh in reviewing paving plans declared that Chestnut street should bo paved between 18th and 20th streets, but about one- I fourth of the property fronting on the street in that section, is unassessable and the city has no funds to pay for this work. He irttimated that the por tion between Nineteenth and Twentieth streets, may be paved as there are no street intersections to finish in that block.

QUIETEST WEEK IN STEEL TRADE Traffic Troubles Are Given as the Cause of Falling Off I' Still beset by traffic troubles, the steel trade trade has had one of the quietest weeks in many, as though January ends with even more assur ance of full operaUons far into the year than existed at its opening. In summarizing the situation, the Iron Age of to-day says: "That the United States Steel Cor poration, with all the constriction of traffic late in the year and the short age of coke, earned $106,000,000 in the last quarter of 1916. or far more than inthe previous three months, in dicates the advance the steel com panies have made into their higher priced orders. But even so, consider able shipments are still going out at close to a 2c basis for heavier prod ucts; hence larger earnings are yet to come. "In the Pittsburgh district some mills are believed to have shipped more product in the past fortnight than they booked in new business, but generally the cutting down of ship ments has caused a slight gain in un filled orders in Januaiy. At Chicago consumers of the heavier forms of rolled steel have crowded the mills with specfilcations and emergency or ders, so that even in the absence of large new contracts the accumulation on the books has increased. "In the Central West there is some easing up of the pressure on sheet and bar mills. Some sheet mills that have been quoting the top of the mar ket for prompt shipment are now tak ing such business at $5 lower. On heavier products, however, prices on both early and later shipments are tirni if not higher. "The desire of foreign buyers to get all the steel possible from this country is seen here and there In the acceptance of more steel with upper limits in phosphoi*ous and sulphur. In a recent inquiry for 40,000 tons of 4 %-inch rounds 0.07 was allowed on phosphorus and sulphur. "Italy's inquiries for barb wire, steel bars and ship plates continue, but ocean freights are a distinctly limiting factor in all export trade." Lieutenant Roberts Guest of Honor at Club Banquet Lieutenant George W. 11. Roberts, of the Governor's Troop, was guest of | honor at a banquet given by the Steelton Club last evening.

REAL FIGHTING BY U. S. IFWAR COMES [Continued From First Page] hold out for the thirty days which Germany allots them, much less for a year and a half, until an American army is ready. The British her say yes. They do not underestimate the seriousness of the German threat. They admit that reversion to the barbarism of the Stone Age will to the effective ness of Germany's warfare. Many ships will be sunk. Many women and children, neutral as well as belliger ent, will be murdered. If the United States entered the war and undertook to protect its ship ping against the submarines it could add to this force not only Its naval mosquito fleet, but innumerable fast motorhoats and limitless facilities for producing subjnarine trapping de vices.' Could Blockade t. S. One of the highest naval authorities declared yesterday that If war wern declared with Germany the United States Navy would be unable to cope with submarines that Germany could send across the Atlantic. A blockade of the eastern ports more effective than that Great Britain has estab lished about Germany would be en tirely possible, he said. Small Vessels the Navy's Need The weakness of the United States Navy with respect to dreadnauffhts and battlecruisers would not prove the greatest handicap to this country in the early stages of a war, according to the authority quoted. The short comings of the navy that would cost, the county dearest would be the lack of a sufficient number of small ves l sels, such as torpedo boats, torpedo j boat destroyers and similar craft. Only with a vast number of these little warships, he declares, could a submarine blockade be effectively combated. Lacking them, the United States would face a critical situation. Its shipping would be literally at the mercy of the U-boats. The so-called "mosquito fleet" of privately owned motor boats might, perhaps, be of some use in trapping submarines with the aid of nets, but in general the defenses of the United States against a submarine blockade are so negligible as to leave the coun try practically helpless, in the view of this naval expert. British Meet a Protection The most effective protection the United States has to guard it from the' great dreadnaughts and battlecruisers I of the German navy, in case of war. Is not the American navy, but the British navy, according to the authority in question. As long as the fleets of Great Britain are undefeated there is no chance of the biff German warships crossing the ocean to assail our shores. But if the vaunted British naval power should fail in a great sea engagement or series of them the German fleets would be free to engage the American navy—and with a good chance of suc cess. "It is entirely within the bounds of possibility for the British navy to be defeated," declared the naval expert. "You may call it, if yon like, a remote chance. But, in the opinion of naval men, it might happen. And, if the Germans were able to defeat the Brit ish navy, they would make short [work of our fleets. That would be their j next step. And, once our battleship* were disposed of, our entire coast would be at their mercy." In the opinion of this expert Japan, in spite of her connection with the entente allies, would be eager for A favorable opportunity to attack the United States on the Paciflo Coast. Bergner Named Receiver of Fulton County Road Charles H. Bergner, attorney of this city, yesterday was appointed by Fed eral Judge Charles B. Wltmer, sitting at Sunbury, as receiver for tlieMcCon nellsburg and Fort Loudon Railroad, In Fulton county. Work on the construction of the line, which passes through Franklin and Fulton counties, stopped several weeks ago when Clyde Koons, the con tractor, disappeared. This was fol lowed by the closing of the Lemasters National Bank, because Enos D. My ers, the cashier, had loaned a large sum of money to Koons. Yesterday the People's Bank of Lemasters was organized to take the place of the one just closed. W. F. Patterson, Jr., of Pittsburgh, was the petitioner for the receiver ship. He holds more than $30,000 worth of mechanics' Hens for work ,done on the property. The railroad, incorporated for $150,000, is a short line designed to connect with the Pennsylvania line at. McConneHsburg and with the Cumberland Valley com pany at Fort Loudon. 15
