Senator Snyder Introduces
Measure Looking to Draft
ing of a State Bill
In tho Senate last evening a joint
resolution was offered by Senator
Charles A. Snyder, providing for the
appointment of a committee of live
Senators and seven Representatives to
yrcparo- and dratt a bill for presenta
tion to the Legislature providing for
xuiliwfy training in the State. Sen
ator Snyder announced the purpose of
the resolution to be the gathering ot
information that will enable the as
sembly to enact the very best law
possible on the subject. He offered
tho resolutions at this time so that
the proper thought and attention
could be given the measure to be en
acted.
The resolution passed by tho House
pledging the loyalty of the Pennsyl
vania legislature to the President in
liis policy against the German gov
ernment on the high seas were re
ceived in the Senate. Criticism of
United States Senators was cut out of
the resolution in the judiciary special
committee to which it was referred.
Opposition to any change in the text
was made and by a vote of 25 to 12
the friends of the resolution as it came
from the House lost their battle to put
it through the upper branch as passed
by the House. Senator McNicliol was
the prime mover in having the reso
lution referred to committee.
When Senator Leiby presented a
resolution calling for information as
to employes of Senate and House with
the purpose of cutting down the pay
roll, Senator Crow was outspoken in
his opposition. Mr. Eyre wanted the
resolution referred to the committee
on appropriations. Mr. Crow wanted
si vote taken at once. He could not
see. ho said, why the Economy and
Efficiency Commission should inter
fere with the prerogatives of the Sen
ate: J.hat the body was well qualified
to rfffeulate its own affairs and desig
nate the number of its employes. Sen
ator Charles A. Snyder didn't believe
it would work any harm to have the
resolution go to committee. The reso
lution was killed. Senator Leiby called
for a yea and nay vote, but Senator
Beidleman rose to a point of order,
stating that a roll call could not be
taken after the chair had announced
his decision of the viva voce vote,
which was unmistakably against the
purpose of the resolution.
Senator ,T. Frank Graff, of Arm
strong county, last night introduced
an antl-treating bill. In presenting
■the measure he prefaced the intro
duction with statements that the pro
visions of the bill sought to do away
with the school in which the drink
'Kabit is formed. The bill makes it
unlawful for any holder of license to
give or permit to be given any person
or persons on his premises liquor he
or they have not paid for. It further
.stipulates that liquor not paid shall
not be drunk on his premises, but
makes exception in the case of the
adult wife, daughter, or sister of the
person who buys the drink. It is also
made unlawful for any persons to im
portune or induce or attempt to in
duce a person to furnish or give
liquor. The penalty for violation of
the act is SSOO fine or imprisonment
or both, at the discretion of the court.
Senator Lynch introduced a bill
making the act fixing the fees and
compensation to be received by con
stables for visiting places where
liquors are sold or kept apply to cities
of the second class. The act now af
fects constables of townships, bor
oughs and cities of the third class.
' 'onstables get 25 cents for each pUice
visited in his jurisdiction and 6 cents
for each and every mile actually trav
eled in making such visits.
A bill introduced by Mr. Whittcn
empowers any corporation, society or
voluntary corporation carried on for
the sole benefit of its members and
not for profit to change the location
of its principal office or place of busi
ness to any other place within the
commonwealth upon petition to the
court of the county where the princi
pal office is located. Notice is to be
tiled in the office of the insurance
commissioner ten days before the
change shall take effect.
Senator Catlin read in place a bill
making it lawful for amusement com
panies incorporated under the laws
of another state to erect and maintain
buildings such as theaters, moving pic
ture houses, operahouses and other
laces of amupoment and to have amij

French Army Elated
at Success of Great
Drive Against Teutons
By Associated Press
Paris, March 20.—The latest news
from tho front accentuates the feel
ing of optimism in military circles
here and convinces tho critics that
the Germans arc now engaged in a
most difficult and dangerous opera
tion in view of the large front in
volved. According to the hitherto ac-
cepted theory to effect such a move
ment with any safety it was neces
sary that a distance equal to a two
days' march should be maintained be
tween the pursuing and retreating
forces. Under the present circum
stances both armies are in close con
tact.
The Germans are carrying out their
retirement under the cover of small
but plpked rear guards, sometimes en
tirely composed of otlicer.s and non
commissioned officers, which make
counterattacks when the pursuers
press too closely on their heels. Ttyj
weather, which continues clear, is 111
favor of the advancing allies. French
military critics maintain that it is
more and more unlikely that the Ger
mans can reach the Lille-La-F*ere line
without mishap. It is assumed that
they propose to convert this line,
W'hich was their former base. into
their principal position and remove
their base seventeen miles to the rear
on a line running from Valenciennes
to Laon. It is asserted that from any
point of view the Germans are facing
an aggravation of an already difficult
position and confront even loss favor
able fighting conditions in the imme
diate future.

HOUSE CLEARED
OF VISITORS
Speaker Puts Rule Into Effect
For the First Time in Years
and People Kick
Members of the House of Represent
atives met last niglit with the floor
of the House of all persons
not authorized to enjoy privileges for
the first time in years. Speaker Bald
win put into operation the rule which
permits only members, former mem
bers, officers and employes and author
ized newspaper correspondents to be
upon the floor, and the wives and
friends of members had to go up into
the gallery.
The chairs along the sides of the
chamber, the famous "side lines," were
all taken out and - the pages' chairs
were fastened together so that no one
could move them about. It was the
most t businesslike appearance the
House has had since the new Capitol
was put into use and the splendid
order maintained during the evening
was much commented upon.
The Speaker decided upon this move
last week when swarmed on the
floor during rollcalls and while there
was some objection by members they
acquiesced in the effort to get order.
When the usual Monday night throng
appeared the sergeants-at-arms were
at the doors and no one got in who
was not authorized. Storms of wrath
beat about the doors and while a few
persons got into the chamber on pleas
which sounded good they were stopped
by the brass railing and found them
selves lonely. Some of the lobbyists
held indignation meetings and quite
a few prominent folks had to cool their
heels in the anterooms and lobbies.
For some reason or other there was
antipathy to going into the gallery.
It was the only place from which to
view the proceedings.
The floor of the Senate was also kept
clear last night and there were some
tough times for per.sons who had been
accustomed to parading over it. Even
members of the House were required
to tell why they appeared.
$3,000,000 Gift For Yale
From Mrs. Harkness
New Haven, March 20.—The Yale

the use of the students on the squares
bounded by High, Liberty, Elm and*
York streets. This is to take the
form of a quadrangle, in memory of
Charles W. Harkness, son of Mrs.
Harkness, of the class of 1883, who
died May 1, 1916. Mr. Harness in
his will left $300,000 to Yale.
BANKER DIES A PAUPER
Bradford, Pa., March 20.—Charles
D. Brower, 84 years old, who was a
friend and fellow worker of John D.
Archbold and other Standard Oil
heads in the early days and who was
a cashier in a bank in the oil fields
of this State, died in the city poor
house here yesterday. Drink was the
cause of his downfall. He failed to
take advantage of the opportunities
offered and permitted himself to drift
downward. Brower had been a city
charge for some time.
FOOD RESCUED FROM RUINS
Sunbttry, Pa., Mach 20.—Youngsters
delving in the ruins of Shamokin's half
million dollar fire ruins uncovered a
grocery el dorado that helped their
families combat old 11. C. L. for a few
days. Hundreds of cans of corn, peas,
meats, etc., were found in the ruins,
and unopposed by the owners, who had
no use for them, the boys worked like
Weavers and carried away the whole
stock. It was said that the contents
in most cases were in good shape.
