Royal Arcanum Receiver Is Asked in Court Boston, Mass., Aug. 29.—Arthur F. Cummins and James F. TTpstone, both of Nassua. N. H., to-day filed a hill In equity in the United States district court here asking the ap pointment of a receiver for the Royal Arcanum, a fraternal Insurance or der, on the alleged ground that its funds had been impaired by doubtful investments and .the loss of a large number of members. The bill charges that the order has become hopelessly insolvent and that Its resources are * insufficient to meet its obligations. This is the second receivership proceeding brought against the Royal Arcanum in recent months. CHANGE O.U.A M. NAME TO AMERICAN MEN [Continued From First Page.] total membership at this time is 84,189. To Elect To-morrow At to-morrow's sessions the offi cers for the ensuing year will be chosen, and a selection will be made of the city in which the next ses sions of the national council will 'bo held. Providence, R. 1., is likely to be selected as the place of the sev enty-second session, according to the representatives who are here, but Concord, N. H., will make a strong bid for the convention. Pleased With Name More than two hundred delegates are accredited members of the na tional council of the Order of United American Mechanics. Practically all of the delegates who will attend the sessions which are to continue throughout to-day and to-morrow are now In the city. Great interest has centered around the selection of a new title by which will be known in the fu ture, and delegates agree that the name, "American Men" Is one ad mirably suited to the organization. The committee appointed to ad vise the ritual has completed its work. The report has been present ed to the representatives of the many state and local organizations who are in attendance here, and final action upon this important mat ter wasjconcluded at this morning's session. - ' In a measure, the committee on revision have had their work laid out for them. Last year a vote was taken in tho subordinate lodges, ask ing an expression of the order re garding 'several contemplated changes then under consideration. While the national council exercises supreme authority in all matters per taining to the order, pfllcers of tho law-making body desired the ex pression of the membership as a whole before making any sweeping changes. The proposition to revise the ri tual and to change the title of tho ordpr received a majority m ote. The membership was by no means anx ious to assume a new title, however. This proposition carried by a narrow margin. Taking the action of the subordi nate bodies as a basis for their action, both of the proposed changes were mads. Many persons who have been prominently identified with the or der for many years felt that if has accomplished much and could ad vance to new heights under the old title. Others claimed the name, "mechanics" was misleading. * The order had its inception m Philadelphia seventy-two years ago. The founder was JAither Chapin. Chapin was actuated by high mo tives in the organization of the so ciety, and for e. time no one hut a craftsmen, were admitted. Patriot- The founder was a carpenter, and saw the need of a closer bond be tween the workmen of Philadelphia and foreign laborers who wefe com ing to this country. Labor trouble had nothing whatever to do with the foundation of the society. Tho society grew rapidly, and nf- Ser some years others, who were not sraftsmen, were admitted. Patriot ism has always made a strong appeal to members and men In every walk of life were enrolled as loyal support ers: The growth of the order was rapid until the time of the Civil War, when the entire membership of many lodges was wiped out. As the order is in no sense a society for labor ing exclusively, many feel that a new name will be appropriate. The principles, honesty, industry and sobriety have drawn many prominent men into the circles of the O. U. A. M„ and this fact was used as ip argument by those who object ed to a change of name. At least, •two presidents of the United States, Ulysses S. Grant a.nd William Mc- Klnley, were members of the Me chanics. Second Meeting Here This is the second time in the his tory of Harrisburg that the supreme council has met here. Harrisburg entertained the order in 1907. This afternoon delegates and their wives visited Hershey, where spe cial privileges were accorded them In their tour of the famous chocolate town. They will motor through the parks of Harrisburg and will visit notable places here. Later this even ing H. O. Holstein, national secre tary, will be host at a dinner to bo given the visitors at the Fort Hunter Hotel.

WAR PROFITS TO BE HIT HEAVILY BY TAX MEASURE Senate Finance Committee Adds Much to Levy on • Excess Eearnings By Associated Press Washington, Aug. 29. Amend ments to the war tax bill proposing to levy more than one-third of its total, or about $1,286,000,000 on war profits, an Increase of about $500,- 000,000, were approved by the Finance Committee to ofset the radical movement ,foi higher taxa tion. To meet the radical movement for greater taxation of v/ir profits the Senate Finance Committee to-day agreed to amendments carrying war profits taxes of more than 3 3 per tei i. in placo of the present provi s*. rs for 26 p cent. The amend ments would the war tax yield Mom liiuO't to 11.0ii0,- 000,000 in addition to the taxes un der the present law and yield a third Debate on the publishers' taxes , was begun by Senator Shields, of Tennessee, who supported Senator McKellar's substitute and argued that magazines and other periodicals not newspapers cause the deficit in carrying second class mail. "I am satisfied," he said, "that the dally papers are paying prac tically all. If not the full amount, for the service they receive. Rates on I magazines and other publications which cause the losses should be increased." SMALLER CITIES TO ACT IN UNISON ON LAWS [Continued From First Page.] was taken a motion to convene in Erie carried unanimously. With the exception of an address by James Sweeney, chief of the State Bureau of Standards, on "Weights and Measures," the entire morning session was devoted to a discussion of laws which had been passed, and others which arc wanted by the league but which died in commit tees. Discuss Laws A comprehensive report of all laws passed and those which did not go through the last Legislature was presented by Solicitor James A. Gardner, of New Castle, chairman of of the law committee of the league, and one of the most active third class city legislation boosters in the state. In the report Solicitor Gardner spoke at length on the repeated at tempts to insert in the Ramsey amendments another amendment which removed the nonpartisan fea ture of the Clark act. He declared that he was almost positive this would not have carried in either branch and also said every effort would have \>ecn made to have it vetoed should it have passed. He also scored the Beidleman bill, which would have jtartly restored the for mer system of electing partisan couneilmen from each ward in a city. Mayor Louis Franke, of Johns town, supported by Mayor Kitts and other officials who have taken much interest in the legislation, cham pioned Mr. Gardner's cay so to have the league work together. Mayor Franke first condemned the laxness which resulted .in the failure to get needed legislation and declared that unless each city got back of the move for betternment the House and Sen ate would do the same at future sessions. Must Organise Mr. C. Rhone, Williamsport, then took the floor and told the delegates to organize and fight for the laws they want. "The only way to get them will be to show the Legislature that wo as city officials know more about the need of third class cities than men from Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Scranton," Mr. BJ. one said. He rec ommended the appointment of a committee of fifteen, to be composed as five mayors, five coupcllmen and five solicitors, each from a different city In the league, TO De placed In charge of bills which are presented at. the 1919 session. He joined Mayor Kitts and Mayor Franke in their criticisms of civic and political bod ies who attempted to influence the Leg Mature and have partisan amendments abided to the Clark act. Questions Nonpartisan Ticket The discussion on the nonpar tisan clause in the Clark act brought a suggestion from James P. Colter, of Meadville, that city school direc tors should bo placed under a sim ilar provision. He also questioned the advantage of making candidates for the Supreme and Superior court bench run on non-partisan tickets. One of the recent acts of the Legfislaturo will tequlre an third class cities to advertise and sell city bonds to the highest bidder. Mayor Kitts stated he was opposed to this measure as city finane de partments often can sell blocks of bonds at much higher figures than when advertised for and sold to bidders, Ira W. Stratton, ex-Mayor of Reading, who presided this morning, also questioned whether in the future sinking fund commissioners may purchase city bond§ and save the four-mill State tax, at the same time getting the interest on the bonds for the sinking fund. A summary of Solicitor Gardner's report follow®: Bills which were passed In the recent Legislature and which were favored by the league, to fill coun cilmanic vacancy by appointment by remaining members in council; civil service for police department; civil service for paid fire departments, and changing/the time for submitting city, school and poor tax duplicates to the city treasurer from June 1 to March 1. Bills passed relating to third class cltieß: Giving permission to cities to appropriate funds for musical entertainments, such as band con certs, during the year; permitting annexation of territory in a county adjoining the one in which the city is situated; setting date for special registration prior to special city elec tion; compelling borough councils to pass ordinances providing for an nexation to cities; putting electrical, engineering and building Inspection departments under civil service; re quiring city controllers to sign all warrants; giving cities power to lease water supply works; requiring advertising for bids in selling city bonds.
