12 BROWN STANDS PAT ONOPINION Says Building and Loan Asso ciations Cannot Buy Bonds With Surplus Funds Attorney General Francis Shunk Brown yesterday refused to alter hiif decision against building and loan associations purchasing Liberty bonds. A meeting was held in his! Philadelphia office. when repre sentatives of the Building and Loan Association I eague of Pennsylvania and their counsel asked Mr. Brgwn : to reconsider 'his decision. He told the men that he would determine tlnally within a week whether the. legislative act of 1917 permits build ing and loan associations to buy Liberty bonds. Joseph H. Sundheim. of the Per petual Building and Loan Associa-, tion. who was the chief spokesman, declared afterwards. "Wg didn't purchase any Liberty bonds during the first two campaigns because theje wasn't any active drive, but we; bought 95.000.000 worth of the third' loan. We want to make a great • drive in the next campaign and willj buy the bonds even if we have to go. to court." Mr. Brown said that the interests of the loan associations should be protected and taken care of. "I! realize that Liberty bonds should be purchased, hut it would divert the) associations from their purpose, and some hardworking man might come along and want to borrow money to buy his home and find that all the money was tied up in Liberty bonds." J he said. Mr. Brown was informed that the: loan associations didn't intend to I make a business of buying and soil- i ing bonds but merely wanted toi heip the government in a crisis. Loan; associations do not have a sum of' money lying idle, Mr. Brown was) told, and borrowers have to give notice so that the money can be ob- 1 tained. The loan association men said that' the act of July. 1917, allowing cor porations to invest their surplus money in Liberty bonds included; loan associations, but Mr. Brown did! not think so. The loan association! men thought that they had the right' to invest their money derived from, interest, fines and premiums in Lib-i erty bonds They said they did not! want to buy bonds to use as an' opening wedge to allow them to make indiscriminate investments! with their money. 'Mr. Brown said he would he will-{ ing for patriotic reasons to allow, associations to purchase the bonds, but that under the laws of Pennsyl vania they are not entitled to do so. "It is true." he said, "that the enabling act of 1917 permits the directors of corporations to invest aj certain amount of surplus moneys inj Liberty bonds, but that act does not apply to building and loan associa tions. That is my opinion. It was! reached after careful thought and' study, for my only purpose is to protect the associations." Central Committee of Slovak League Meets Forty members of the Central Com- : mittee of the Slovak League are at- ' tending the annual meeting of the ; committee in session at the Jednota building near Highspire this after- j noon. A session was scheduled to ■ be held this morning but was held i up until this afternoon. The meet- ! ing is for the purpose of encourag- ! ing the work of the league, which is in sympathy with the policy of the j Allies in defeating Austria-Hungary l of which country the Slovanians are subjects.

The chief said that the law break ers will be run down and turned over to the government authorities. As near as could be ascertained the! chief said, the liquor was being fur- \ nished to soldiers by negroes. The negroes, the chief believed are not; aware of the fact that they are violating the law in giving uniformed j • men intoxicating liquors. Chief Grove declared that the • matter must be taken up with the dealers. In the opinion of author j ities liquor should not be sold in i bottles unless tfte consumer is known :by the clerk. If an iron clad rule prohibiting the sale of liquor in bottles to purchasers unknown to ■ the dealers, the bootlegging will be. I broken up authorities believe. Another problem confronting the, : department is breaking up the oper- ! ation of houses where liquor is sold i unlawfully. Several districts are; under the surveillance of local; | authorities and arrests in whole 1 | sale lots are expected in a short) i time. 1 Two uniformed men and a negro j were taken into custody by the local ■ police last evening supposed to be! ! implicated in bootlegging but werei ! released because of lack of evidence. I ! The authorities claimed that they were unable to get sufficient evi-) i dence on the negro and he was re-; leased. Veteran Eddie Plank Will Oppose Jeff Tesreau in Red Cross Game Saturday | Steelton's Steel League team will. | have a splendid chance to get back i at Bethlehem for former defeats i during the season when the clubs . meet Saturday afternoon on Cottage, i ' Hill in a big Red Cross game. To be! ■sure. Eddie Plank will do the twirl-) ! ;ng for the local bunch, and declares; J he will wallop the big plant team ! i'or the defeat at Bethlehem several j weeks ago. Pitted against Plang' will be Tesreau. who is pitching a. wonderful game of ball, and in all: ; probability the game will be one of! i the fastest staged here this season. The game will not be figured in) the league standing, both teams hav- ; ing an open date, the Saturday game! > having been played on July 4. Red Cross workers who ha\ e j ; charge of arrangements declared 'his morning that they are placing! . five thousand tickets on sale and ex- j ] pect to dispose of every one. The i j tickets were distributed among girls i ) and superintendents of the various ) departments in the works. Not only ; will patrons be given a chance to see ~ ball game that will equal any in ! i the major league, but they will have j ■ the opportunity to hear the Steelton! j Band in a patriotic concert.

Large Blast to Be Put Off at Steel Plant Quarries i The largest blast in tha history of j the local steel plant quarries will be put off Friday or Saturday of this; , week, officials of the plant announced ; ' this ' morning. Officials say there ; will be thirty-four tons in eighty- \ one holes, ignited at once. This, I amount of explosives is considerable more than was put off earlier in the : year when a large amount of rock; j was loosened in the quarries. The blast is expected to dislodge enough ' rock for use during the remainder of the summer.

RAILROAD RUMBLES FRANCE GRIDIRONED BY "TOY RAILROADS;" MIDGET ENGINES BUSY Announcement that all French en- Sines in service in the United States had been recalled and would be sent to France, has caused much gossip in railroad circles. Every day the bis mongles originally intended for service abroad are passing through Harrisburg. Kailroad men wonder what they will do with all the en gines abroad. There Is work for every locomotive and according to re ports the supply over there Is short. Railroads have been a big factor In the victories of the Allies. Four track systems have been built as close to the front as possible and con necting with the big lines and run ning almost to the trenches are hun dreds of narrow gtiage roads. "Toy roads" is the way some of the Yankee boys put it when they write home. Here is an Interesting story about railroads, recently sent out from Washington. D. C.: Toy Railroads "Uncle Sam's most useful plaything in this war is his toy railroad. It isn't too much to say that the defeat of Germany hangs upon the skill and efficiency with which he operates It. •Every moment of the day and night midget engines, boldly labeled "U. S. A." and drawing miniature'cars over tiny tracks, puff their way along our bnttlellnes in France, piling up bit by bit the material by which the American army lives and fights. Jerky litttle things, with none of the smooth rhythm of the great locomotives that whirl us from city to city over here, they nevertheless get through an enormous amount of work on the same plan of multiplied effort the ants adopted several aeons ago. No army to-day could exist with out its light railroads. They are the immediate and necessary blood ves sels which throb Just below the skin of war and feed the surface of the fighting front. Easily operated and quickly laid, they follow the flag with the very pertinacity that George Ade ip the bad old days once ascribed to the cocktail. And wherever their bumpy cadence Is heard the listener may he sure the foremost trench frontier is just around the corner. So "death curves" are as frequent on this railroad system as telegraph poles on the lines at home. Light Hallways It was soon found this wouldn't work. The "front' - was far too im permanent works of peace time rail surface, for the cumbersome and permanent works of peacettime rail roading. So the standard, or broad gauge systems. retreated from trenches, as it were, to make way for the nimbler and more serviceable light railways. Now. back of the entire Allied bat tleline. there is a zone from four to five miles wide within which a perfect network of light railways, running over two-foot tracks, per Plans Complete For Big Session of 'Nonbelievers' Members of the booster committee for the Friendship and Co-operative Club, anticipate a record attendance at the meeting to-morrow night. Each day this committee has been lining up "nonbeleivers," An inter esting program is promised for this big event. Word was received to-day that General Superintendent N. \V. Smith would be present. He expects to be in the east and will come to Har risburg for the session. Superin tendent J. C. Johnson, of the Midule division, will head a large delegation from Altoona. The committee on entertainment premises a smoker and refreshments as the closing feature. The meeting will be held in Eagle's Hall and all railroad men are invited to attend.

At least the com mittee in charge say these are "es sential." The picnic, which is to be held on Thursday, August 29. is the first that the Harrisburg Association has ever conducted. Harry Anwyll's farm at Inglenook, an attractive spot on the river near the State Y. M. C. A. camp ground, has ben selected be cause it's big and "Anwyll wants us to come." Members and friends are asked to meet at the "Y" promptly at 12.30 o'clock. Automobiles will.carry ev eryone to Inglenook, and get them back to Harrisburg during the even, ing. Raceball. swimming, volleyball, golf and a real "Maggie Phillips" dinner at 5.30 o'clock are some of the Fred Rowe of the picnic committee, things promised by John O'Xeil and TRY lAMB'S WOOI, One of the unpleasant aftermaths of swimming; is the uncomfortable, and oftentimes dangerous, presence of water in the ears. To prevent this, I use this simple precaution. Rub a little cocoa butter on a piece of lamb's wool and put in each ear. The lamb's wool is not absorbent, keeps out all water, and yet at the same time Is so constructed that one can hear plainly through it. Lever use cot ton. as that holds the water and is worse than nothing.—Good House keeping. HARRISBURG (ffSgtgbl TELEGRAPH fornis almost the whole function of transport Grown-up trains bring their freight—food, equipment, muni tions and even men—to the "rail heads," just out of ordinary cannon range. There the toy trains pick It up and distribute it virtually Into the trenches themselves, jolting along with charming sang-froid whether Fritz's shells be breaking in twos and threes or by the whole sky full. Not New In France America is not a pioneer in mlli j tary light railroading. Our system Is borrowed pretty liberally from French and British uses as we found them when we entered the war. Here and there, it is true, we have incor porated well-tested ideas developed I In our own railroad or engineering experience, and as time passes we ex pect to embody other improvements. But we are using the French 67-centi meter traces and in the main we have indulged in no "new-fangled notions." Our light engines, though, are dis tinctly American—American built and brimming with what one might al most call American personality. They are of three sizes and two types—the gasoline engine which coughs over the tracks in daylight when coat t smoke would attract attention from i the enemy and the heavier steam lo comotive which sleeps until sundown and shunts Its train around at night. | But even this monster has a weight i of only 23.1000 pounds on its driving | wheels, while some of the big loeo ' motives on our home tracks weigh f ten times as much. Gas I.ocomotlves The "gas" engines are really only ' big motors geared to a locomotive j drive. The 30-horsepower size weighs ! just four tons and the 50-horsepower but 14.000 pounds. They have a ! queer, sqquashed-together look, rath ler suggestive of the old Philadel i phia "stoops" that descend invariably ] in three steps, but their pilots say they are "some jack rabbits." Even the more dignified steam locomotive, smartly enough turned out, has a 1 certain lean and hungry air. a faint flavor of the original Stevenson Roc ! ket model. However, it has more pull than anything else in the army. Indeed, these engines pull virtually every type of car. except the Pull man, used on the standard gauge—all built, of course, on a tinier scale. There are flat cars and gondolas, box cars and "dumps" and "tanks." i Still, a tank car with a capacity of 22,000 pounds isn't such a midget, at 1 that. Such tools as these make enthu siastic workmen. Perhaps, if you pin him right down to it. you can't get an admiring engineer to admit point blank that the little engines will jump through hoops or sit up and beg. But he's perfectly willing to issue a blanket indorsement and l affirm that "they will do anything." Railroad Notes The Baldwin Locomotive Works is turning out 350 engines each month. During last Saturday and Sunday the Reading handled 3 5,506 cars. Of this number 2,100 were anthracite and 4,132 bituminous. Federal railroad officials are con sidering a uniform pension system for veteran railway employes. John D. Long, passenger engineer on the Middle division of the Pennsy, to-day visited Major William B. Gray at the ordnance depot. All station bars on the Reading system have been closed. Pennsy's payrolls have increased one hundred per cent, in a year. Dur ing the latter part of July $477,- 307.80 was paid out to Middle di vision employes. These figures break all records. ANOTHER RAILROAD POEM The oft quoted Finnigan has a rival in Pat Donahue, an Ohio freight conductor, whose train had a break down recently. After the accident he sent this message to Train Dis patcher Straight: "Two-twenty-two has a busted flue. What will I do? DONAHUE." This awakened the slumbering muse in the telegraph office, and the reply ran: "Wait. Two-twenty-eight will take your freight. "DISPATCHER STRAIGHT." —Omaha World-Herald.
