United States Senator Boles Penrose has characterized the Joining of forces by State Highway Commissioner J. Denny O'Nell and Congressman-at- Large John R. K. Scott for a cam paigning tour of the state aa an un holy alliance that is sure to lose votes for both of them. Senator Penrose further declared that Scott, fresii from the vice-rid den Fourteenth ward, and O'Neil, still breathing the odor of sanctity after his discourses in the churches, will have difficulty in persuading the intelligent voters of Pennsyl vania as to what common ground or leal issue they stand upon, except a brazen attempt to fool the people in order to get office. After reviewing Scott's association with the protectors of vice in the Fourteenth ward, whose brazen dis regard for decency and law com pelled the Federal authorities to as sume virtual control of the police force, Senator Penrose said Scott was not only unlit to All the office of lieutenant governor, but that he had proved himself a "slacker" in Congress in the greatest crisis in the world's history, when the national Legislature was in need of the serv ices o£ every member, both in com mittee and on the floor of the House. Scott Congress Slacker Senator Penrose asserted that during the period of his member ship House bf Representatives Congressman Scott has been absent from its sessions 641 days out of a total of 704, up until May 2, and that he had voted on but 117 rollcalls out of a total of 426... This record, Senator Penrose as serted, stamped Congressman Scott as the most notable absentee In the whole Congress. "Scott is the admitted leader In the Fourteenth ward in Philadel phia, and has assumed a guardian ship over the Thirteenth ward. The report of the Federal investigators, and also' of other investigators, de clares that in a city teeming with vice of every description, to a de gree that has compelled the Fed eral authorities to assume virtual control of the police force, the two wards are, the head of the vicious and criminal aggregation. "Here the house of ill-fame, the gambling room and other vicious resorts and joints have been permit ted to ply their trade openly in broad daylight as well "as at night, with the connivance of the police. Haunt of German Spies 'Heroin peddlers and vendors of other narcotic drugs, prostitutes, pimps, panderers and wretched de generates of every type'and descrip tion frequent these dens of infamy; and until recently no effort has been made to suppress their activitie. Soldiers, sailors and marines have been tempted and debauched here and throughout Philadelphia and considerable information has been extorted from them by German spies.. "When the facilities afforded by the above described denizens of the underworld had been exhausted, the patrons of these establishments have been blackmailed, knocked down and robbed, or even murdered. "Mr. Scott, present member of the Legislature is a saloonkeeper n the Fourteenth ward, and his candidate for the legislature at the approach ing election is also a saloonkeeper. "Scott, fresh from the environ ment of the Fourteenth ward, and O'Neil, still breathing the odor of sanctity from his discourses in the churches, will have difficulty in per suading the intelligent people of Pennsylvania as to what common ground, or real issue, they stand upon, except a brazen attempt to .camouflage the people in order to get office. "The unholy alliance is likely to lose votes for both of them."

STATE WONT PAY TOWNS FOR ROAD Berks and Dauphin Turnpike Claims Have No Interest For Highway Dept. State Highway \ \ //J officials have de- cllned to become \v\\mSl/ Interested In the 7 move begun by some of the bor- BhTir iri oughs along the IWWn DSQV; Berks and Dau ll HjflflWwJ Phi" Turnpike to m\m n™M claim some part galKltStJliSafc of tj, e money BBy—paid by the State WMMMHSmSBii to the company which owned the pike for over a century because of repairs the town has made.
