It Is Understood That a Struc-;

* I
Lemoyne, Sept. 26. When thej
committee from the West Shore Fire- j
men's Union asked State Highway of- :
ficials what they could do in regards
to bettering: conditions at the Lc- |
moyne Cumberland Valley and Read- ;
Railroad bridges members were j
informed that state officials have i
been working in conjunction with the j
Valley Railways Comnan.v to better
conditions at the Reading Railroad
bridge for sometime.
It is understood that a new bridge
will be erected across the Reading
Railroad, .lust when an offieial an
nouncement in regard to the eree- (
tlon of a new bridge and the plan
of the new structure will be made, is
not known. To have a new bridge i
at this point will greatly improve the]
beauty f this entrance to the bor
ough. The bridge here is only nar- J
row enough for one vehicle to pass
over at one time and is a trap for
automohilists. as the drivers are un- j
able to see vehicles enteritis either
side on account of the grades that |
lead onto the bridge.
Ciiiuherliind \ alley ISefuses I .
As regards to the Cumberland Val- ;
ley Rajlroad bridge state officials t
said thev could not give any help. 1
The conditions here, if allowed to ex- '
ist, firemen say, will result in serious j
accidents. Pedestrians at the en
trance of this bridge are compelled
to walk where they could very easily
be run down by automobiles.
This report will be made to the
union by the conYmittee at its meet
ing Monday evening, October 8. The
cr.mmittee will also report that the
state cannot do anything in regard
to repairing the road between Le
moyne and New Cumberland as noth
ing will hold on this road on account
of the heavy traffic of automobile
trucks.
.Tust what course will be taken by
the union next in regard to the
Cumberland Vallev bridge will be de
cided at the next meeting of the
union.

Twenty-two radical changes were
made in the fundamental by-laws of
the association. The changes affected
the adjustment of grievances of the
railroad employes. According to the
new laws, the merit of the employes'
complairit must be assured before it
reaches the company's officials.
Much enthusiasm was expressed
when the various reports of the dele
gates were read, showing the great
number of grievances that had been
settled by arbitration in their depart
ments.
• Plans were laid to increase the
membership of the association, so as
to take in all departments of the
Pennsylvania Railroad. At present
there are nearly 15,000 members.
Further changes in by-laws were
considered to-day. To-morrow the
delegates will be the guests of the
Pennsylvania Railroad on a trip to
New York City. An interesting pro
gram has been arranged, concluding
with a big theater party at night.

German Admiral Says Sub
marine Warfare is Le
gally Right
By Associated rrcss
I Copenhagen, Sept. 26.—The new
German fatherland party held Its
| first open meeting in Berlin last i
night and the crowd in Philharmonic |
I' hall was so enormous that an over- |
flow meeting was held nearby. No I
goverment official attended either I
meeting. Duke Johann Albreclit of
] MecUlenburg-Schwerin, opened both
| both meetings and Admiral Von Tir
pitz was the principal speaker at
each. ,
Admiral Von Tirpitz pointed out
! that the submarine warfare is Ger
i many's legal right and that Belgium
I now has her just deserts. Belgium.
I the speaker declared was always
England's bridgehead and that Ger
i many must do her utmost in pre
venting England from becoming Bel
gium's protecting master. Admiral
Von Tirpitz further declared that
peace without a heavy war indem
nity meant Germany's defeat and
the victory of Anglo-American cap
italism. Admiral Von Tirpitz was
greeted enthusiastically by the audi
ence. Among the other speakers was
Dr. Vor, Volfgang Kapp.
The Rhilnische Westfalische Zcit
ung, of Essen, recently announced
the formation of a new "patriotic
party," the leaders of which are Duke
Johann Albrecht of Mecklenburg-
Schwerin, Admiral Von Tirpitz and
Dr. Von Wolfgang Kapp. The party's

Freeman, a Georgia negro to whom
he had been a benefactor. The case
went to the jury just before adjourn

husband.
