'"The work of securing the prop erty in the Capitol Park Extension, begun under Governor Tener, has been conluded," says the Governor, "the commission named by my predecessor has at a cost within the appropriations made, completed its labors and filed its final report. Twenty-seven acres in the heart of Harrisburg, involving over five hun dred separate titles and many cor porate interests, have passed in fee simple to the Commonwealth.

The project Includes a great memorial bridge to the sail ors and soldiers of Pennsylvania In the great world war. This bridge is to extend eastward on State street to the hills of the city. I urge you. In cooperation with the Pennsylvania Itallroad Company and the City of Harrisburg, to make provision for the Immediate erec tion of this bridge. Its value both as a utility and as a memorial is manifest. Delay is fraught with many menaces. "The grading of the Capitol Park Extension is progressing rapidly. All structures thereon, save a few used by the State during the war crisis, have been removed and 85,- 000 cubic yards of earth have been delivered upon the zone to bring it in part to the necessary grade. We have linally gotten rid of the ex pensive and wholly useless green houses that once marred the Capi tol grounds. A Governor's row of t*cs was begun; seven trees, named In honor of the earliest colonial governors were p'anted one year ago on Arbor Day with appropriate public ceremonies. When the plans are carried to completion Pennsyl vania will have as her Capitol the litest group of buildings with the fairest setting of any capitol in any country. "The mural decorations for the Senate chamber, the product of the genius of Miss Violet Oakley, were placed in the chamber in January, 1917, and the occasion was duly ob served. This work should continue with due alacrity until all the great rooms of the Capitol are decorated with the finest themes of Pennsyl vania's most gifted artists. "I wish again to urge upon you the wisdom of setting aside annu ally a small sum. approximately 510,000, to be used by a properly constituted commission for the pur chase of the paintings of Pennsyl vania's artists. In due time there will result a state art gallery of un told value to the people of Penn sylvania and give our young artists fitting and substantial encourage ment. "Art is an expression of the spir itual life of a people. Unless we encourage such expression we shall become a sordid and selfish people. Those that entertain the sacred light of beauty should have encour aging support in its completest ex pression." Important Passages Important passages of the Gover nor's message follow: "The subjects of future legisla tion will, in the large, be left, as they properly should be, to the counsels of my successor. "In estimating the approximate revenues available for appropria tion it is important to note that the Act for the imposition and collec tion of certain inheritance taxes, j (being Act No. 318, P. L. p. 832, Session of 1917) has not as yet pro duced the revenue its framers pre dicted. This law is not a humane ; enactment. I invite your attention j to the note attached to it (P.

Appropriations "The amount of money appropri ated by the Assembly is always greatly in excess of the revenues of the Commonwealth. At the last session an earnest effort was made by the chairmen of the appropria tions committees of the House and Senate in cooperation with the Gov ernor to put an end to this wholly reprehensible procedure. Notwith standing the many conferences held, the careful attention given the mat ter and the full cooperation of all executive officers the appropriations, as heretofore, were far in excess of the available funds. The Common wealth cannot incur indebtedness without the consent of the people by proper and constituted proced ure. The Governor is given the thankless task of reducing these ap propriations, by vetoing in whole or in part many items that possess merit and some fhat are 1 " purely merltless. The Governor should not be obliged to Bear the criticism that properly belongs elsewhere. The thirty days following the adjourn ment of the Legislature are days of ceaseless worry and concern. Up wards of 700 bills are laid before him. They carry appropriations of many millions of money for which the assembly provided no funds. Reductions to bring the expendi tures, within the resources are Im perative. It is a situation no gov ernor should be obliged to meet. I earnestly appeal to you to correct this condition and to keep the ap propriations well within the predict able income of the Commonwealth. "The State Board of Charities and Correction, after a careful study of the comparative needs of the many institutions under its care and super vision, recommends the sum which in its experienced judgment, the Assembly should appropriate to each institution. Their counsel should be heeded. The number of these charitable and correctional institu tions is constantly increasing. The demands upon the treasury mount steadily. Some new method of state aid should be adopted and a larger share of the support of these insti tutions should fall upon the local communities. It is my judgment that a gradual reduction of state support, wisely indicated and cov ering a period of ten years, would greatly stimulate local interest and reveal the weakness of those insti tutions that have no compelling rea son to be. Regulation and Suppression of Social Evils "The lessons of the late war ought not be lost. Much has been learned in the stern service of Army and Navy that may well be made permanent in the procedure of a people in times of peace. The man power and the woman power of the country is its most precious asset. Venereal diseases, once the curse of society and still its deadly menace, should be suppressed by joint legis lative action on the part of the nation and the state. These diseases are associated with sin and shame and crime—all deadly enemies to society. Their effects pass from the guilty to the innocent. men and women sterile. Tlfey de stroy young and unborn infants. They are a pQtent cause of blind ness. They furnish inmates for the insane asylums. They sow a har vest of idiocy and feeble-minded ness. They destroy individuals, homes, communities and defeat armies. The National Government has al ready taken steps to control these vices. The State Government by the enactment of proper laws con cerning health education and health protection can do a great service In conserving our greatest asset and in making our Commonwealth clean and wholesome and morally sane. "The enactment in 1917 of an Act to regulate and suppress the opium habit was a great step in advance. The rigid enforcement of this law by making adequate appro priations for that purpose 1s ear nestly commended. "The amendment to the Constitu tion of the United States prohibiting the manufacture, sale jyid use of alcohoJic beverages should be rati fied immediately. No lesson of the is so definite as this. If we could not make good soldiers In camp and cantonment until we had banished rum from camps and can tonments, surely we cannot make good citizens Until we have banished rum from the country. I most ear nestly hope that the Assembly will heed the lesson of the hour and put Pennsylvania in the light-bearing states by a prompt and effective rati fication. "The attempt to legalize and regu late other foriis of crime-inducing practices have at all points been stoutly resisted, and it isfny earnest the Assembly at no point is justified in dignifying any form of evil by legislation tending to curb, regulate or modify its ef fects. There is only one safe course —outlaw all things that are evil in Intent or implication and thus muke all legislative acts instruments of education and moral uplift to our people. Public Education Under the provisions of the School Code of 1911 the public schools of Pennsylvania are greatly improved and a procedure set up that will steadily enhance the service of the schools for many years. Experience in its enforcement has developed SHOULD MAKE A MILLION FOR HIM ' Cincinnati mnn discovers drug that loosens corns so they lift out r+— —-t Local druggists are having a tre mendous call for freozone, the drug which Is said to shrivel a corn, root and all, without any pain.

H A.RRIBBURG tMhOC TELEOIOLPH il Message Is Read Before General Assembly at Opening Session ceratln needs that have been met during this administration. No un certain educational enactments es caped executive veto. Constructive and valuable enactments have been approved. Among the great educa tional Torces set up I am happy to name (1) the establishment of con tinuation schoolB; (2) the passage of Child Labor laws; (8) the ac ceptance by appropriate legislation of the provisions of the Smith- Hughes law making available na tional funds for vocational educa tion; (4) an Increase In the mini mum salaries of public school teach- (5) an Increase In the salaries of ' county superintendents of schools; (6) an act making effective the law in regard to assistant coun ty superintendents and Increasing the compensation of these officials; (7) the increase of the Btate appro priation to common schools to eigh teen million dollars ($18,000,000); (8) provision for the payment of pension to. mothers and making large appropriations for the same; (9) the enactment of a teachers' re tirement law; (10) the purchase and organization under state control of eight state normal schools; (11) un Increase In the salaries of the responsible officers In the depart ment of public Instruction; (12) the inauguration of bird day us part of the observance of Arbor Day; (13) the creation of the bureau of voca tional education; (14) Increased provision for tHe adequate care and education of the blind, especially of blind babies; (16) an increase In thp permanent school fund from seventy thousand dollars ($70,000) to three hundred sixty thousand dollars ($360,000), and the use of the Income to help poor school dis tricts to provide good education for all the children residing therein. "It Is a program of achievement worthy the great Commonwealth and is destined to be regarded as one of the most important legisla tive programs in education that has come to our people in a generation. There yet remains the very manifest duty of Increasing the salaries of the teachers ( ln our public schools. They have rendered and are now render ing a service of the greatest impor tance. Their compensation is piti fully meagre. A groat common wealth ought not to allow this re proach and neglect longer to re main. "I wish to urge upon you in all earnestness the <luty of arranging with the accredited colleges of the Commonwealth to give to each re turning Pennsylvania soldier who went out from our colleges to fight for liberty an immediate opportun ity free of all tuition to complete his college course. The Commonwealth cannot make a wiser, a more profit able, a more gracious investment. "The state forests are now in con dition to require improvement cut ting and this work can absorb at least five thousand men in profitable industry and result in marketing at a fair estimate one million nine hun dred thousand dollars ($1,900,000) worth of timber products. This en terprise should be undertaken and the entire proceeds conveyed into the permanent school fund. It should be diverted to no other pur pose. " v "The lessons educationally of this war should not go unheeded. Such legislation as is necessary to fit the educational system to meet these newer, conditions ought to be en acted. These enaotments should have in mind increased vocational opportunity for our youth, particu larly in agriculture and domestic science, the organisation of a defin ite and adequate program of Ameri canization through the agency of the school, the specific training In trade education, tho establishment of savings banks and the teaching of conservation and economy, the transferrence of moral Instruction from a passive to an aggressive function of the school, the setting up of a new ideal of national loy alty, and the utter abolition of the Prussianized cult that once ruled so largely in our American education. I,abor and Industry "Pennsylvania is pre-eminently a manufacturing community. Above one-third, almost two-fifths, of our population is engaged in manufac turing industries. The range of these industries is greater than that of other states. Many important and exceedingly complex problems arise in the matters affecting capi tal, labor and their co-ordination. These problems fall within the scope of this important department. Dur ing the present administration this department has rendered a notably successful series of services and has greatly extended its sphere of ac tivities. "A department of municipal sta tistics has been created, and it has already aided our municipalities to standardize and improve their fiscal administration. It is performing an increasingly valuable service. "The bureau of emploment, estab lished fortunately before the war, has in this war period rendered very great service to Industry and is at all times a regulator of em ployment and a check upon waste ful to-morrows and idleness in our industrial workers." "The woman's law was so amend ed as to allow the industrial board in specific cases so to subdivide the rest period of these women as to promote their comfort and safety. You can do still more for the wom anhood of the Commonwealth by a recasting of the hours of toll, the comforts in factories and provisions for safencss." Banking "In 1917, by action of the Legis lature. I appointed a commission to codify and revise the bainklng laws of the Commonwealth. Their find ings will be submitted to-you and are recommended to your favor and respectfully urged fori early enact ment. It is hoped that you will en act a law to make it impossible for irresponsible promoters to enter semi-rural communities and at a large profit to the promoter seek to establish state banks where their is really no need for such fiscal agen cies. The outcome is disastrous to the community and menaces the stability' of a fiscal pollcj- that should be and Is, with this excep tion, a proper source o( pride to our people. "Many of the men In our state fiscal institutions answered the call to the colors and marched to an Im mortal fame. They were sadly missed in the fiscal forces of the Commonwealth. Their associates bravely carried on their work and will gladly welcome them home. State Police The Pennsylvania state police have steadily Justified in every way the fine spirit of service accorded them by thoughtful men. They are unobtrusive, quiet, earnest, con scientious and effective agents of peace arid order. The force was In creased during my term by one hun dred men. It is yet too small to perform all the duties that await them. They should have larger power In enforcing the game and fish laws, in regulating the speed and flow of traffic on the highways, Points From Message of Governor Brumbaugh The subjects of future legislation left In the niatn to the "coun * sels of my successor." New direct Inheritance tax law "not a ..rmane enactment," and should be modified. Earnestly appeals to Legislature not to pass appropriation bills without providing for the funds with which to meet them. Some new,method of state aid for charities should be found and "a larger share of the support of these Institutions should fall upon the local communities. Danger of social diseases is pointed out and stringent restrictive measures recommended. Advocates the early approval of the national prohibition amend ment. Hecites administration's accomplishment in the way of childhood legislation, continuation schools and the general Improvement of the school system of the state. Urges that the state give each returning soldier opportunity, tui tion free, to finish his college course. Employ 5,000 men In cutting und caring for state forests. Pleads for Americanization through education along practical lines. Workmen's compensation, department of munlclpnl statistics, child labor law, woman's law, bureau of employment and other wel fare enactment agencies and acts praised for efficiency. Praises Commissioner John Price Jackson's self-sacrifice in ac cepting majorship in the Army. Repeats request for codification of banking laws of the stute.

The chief of this force Is now and for a year has been in tho National Army. In his absence Cap tain George F. Dumb has had charge of the force and has directed it most capably and efficiently. . "With our entirtf National Guard out of the State and in Federal serv ice on the Mexican border and later in France, the care of life and prop erty in Pennsylvania devolved upon this force. The situation was further rendered critical by reason of the fact that many of our men, due to their especial qualifications, were authorized to serve the national gov ernment in the secret service. In the crisis of this concern the influ enza'epidemic swept the state. Seven of the force gave their lives heroic ally and many others were sore stricken. The force was used large ly to alleviate conditions. They did these duties commandingly well. There are now sixty-four vacancies on the force, due to the needs of the national government and the inadequate compensation. The former situation will soon correct itself; the latter is yours to correct. I recommend an increased compen sation for this splendid force and provision for increasing its contin gent of men. Forestry "During this administration the State has added to its forest lands by purchase 26,055 acres. The total acreage is 1,029,023. The average cost of State lands is $2.27 per acre. The total cost to date is $2,342,918, and a conservative estimate of the value of these lands is $10,575,000. The department has 292 miles of telephone lines. 3,500 miles of roads, 300,000 acres topographically sur veyed and 31,534,556 trees planted, 384 camps were occupied free by the people and 418 were leased. The number of persons using this great public domain is exceedingly small; only about 2,500 in all. I suggest a pamphlet cxp'aining the free use of these lands and displaying some of their scenic splendor be issued and freely sent over the State. Such a pamphlet might well be the basis of an -Arbor Day proclammation. Highways "The people of Pennsylvania four years ago decisively declined to authorize a bond issue for the con struction of highways. The same people have Just as decisively, in the late election authorized such a bond issue. This is unquestionably a vote of confidence in the work of the highway department, and this confluence is well placed. The im provement of our highways from current revenues has been one of the notable services rendered all the people. The Executive has person ally taken great Interest in the highway problem and in co-opera tion with the very etflcient head of the department did year by year, until the war Intervened, go over the State with many Interested friends Inspecting tho roads, meet ing the people and by personal ex planation and public address estab lishing m tho public mind the mean ing and value of good roads. To-day our people have easy access to coun ty seats and to the great markets. Tourists as well as our own people find good roads an incentive to view the many matchless miles of scenic splendor with which Penn sylvania is so richly blessed." "Tha sum recelvod for automo bile licenses mounts year by year. Heavy trucks aro ruining many miles of highway. They should be obliged to pay a larger fee for a license and all license fees should be used exclusively for maintenance as now they aro used. These fees should not bo diverted to the pay ment of interest and sinking fund Receipt to Make a Gray Hair Remedy A. L. Paulson. M. D., who has prac ticed medicine In New York City for many years, gave ouP the following recipe for a home-made gray hair remedy: "dray, streaked or faded hair can be immediately turned biack. brown or light brown, whichever shade you desire, by the following simple remedy that you can make at home: "Merely get a small box of Orlex powder at any drug store. It costs very little arid no extras to buy. Dis solve It In watei- and comb It through the hair. Pull directions for mixing and use and a gold bond guarantee come In each box. "It Is safe: It dote not rub off, is not sticky or greasy, and laaves the hair fluffy. It will make a gray-haired person look twenty years younger." charges, upon any loan that the Assembly may authorize. "Tho entire question of flood con trol, vital to the peoples at the junc tion of the great rivers in the west, the impounding of waters at their source and the conversion of fliis potential power, now wasted and menacing, into actual service for our people is attainable and is a program of conservation worthy of serious and immediate attention by the Assembly. *2r>,000,00 for Education "The great war has placed new and larger emphasis upon education. The nation puts its destiny in the care and keeping of its entire citi zenry. The achievements of the nation are, therefore, directly con ditioned upon the quality 'of that people; their courage, their senti ment, their religion, their industry, their enlightenment, their concord of spirit. An intelligent citizenry is tho nation's hope and the nation's goal. No investment of State funds will yield so rich a return as an in vestment in character and educa tion. The school is the agency pre eminent for tho making of char acteristics of a people that buttress the nation. Pennsylvania ought to provide $25,000,000 fdr the new and larger service the school must per form. The revenue necessary for this sum is easily at your command. * J. H.

Annivcrsarl of the Declaration "There Is no more effective man ner of quickoning the national con sciousness and advancing the spir itual ideals of the world than the appropriate observance of great ■■events in the world's advance. We shall soon approach the 160 th anni versary of the adoption of the Declaration of Independence—from which event sprang this Republic,' the liberal government of the more advanced peoples of the world and ; the concord of ideals that has hap pily brought together the depend- 1 able nations of the world in one vast array of force to resist tyranny and to plan for a concert of powers for enduring peace. What our futhers wrought In Independence Hall, our soldiers fought for In France. This anniversary will be the first world-wide meaning to occur after war. It should not pass unnoted. I suggest that you can do no more meaningful service to civ llzation than to plan now for a great world's fair in Philadelphia 14 1936. In 1876 the Centennial Exposition was the precursor of many memor able celebrations. In the dawn of I the new epoch on a most worthy anniversary It Is fitting and wise to ask all people throughout the world i to assemble at the fountain of hu i man rights and drink anew the llfe ! giving waters of virtue, liberty and I independence. [ "The war depleted the farm labor of the state, nevertheless the output of food stuffs has been surprisingly large. Some of it was wasted. Lack of labor and failure to co-operate are responsible in a large measure for this needless waste. Farming will pay if intelligently pursued. En couragement to farmers to own and opernte their own farms Is of great importance. Forward looking en actmemnts of this character are needed. An agency of counsel and free advice in the location of farm buildings is needed. Farmers should be shown by pictures and lectures the great importance of locating the farm buildings in such manner as (1) to secure and protect the sup ply of potable water; (2) the econ omy in distance traveled in perform ing the farm chores, and (3) the im portance of an artistic setting to enhance the value of the property as a home or as a property for sole. I "Grapes are an important and I valuable item of food. They may now be stored and used over a long period of time. They will grow profitably in many parts of Penn sylvania. The steep slopes of the hills along the blue Juniata might well be made into a vast vineyard, j supplying thousands of tons of good food and bringing employment and j rich returns to the planters. | "Camp Curtin, now a part of the city of Harrisburg, and the place j from which all Pennsylvania's vol ! unteers entered the National Army lin the Civil War, has been pur | chased by the Commonwealth and | set aside as a permanent memorial ! to our Pennsylvania soldiers of the Civil War. In due time this park should be suitably developed and fitting memorials erected thereon." "Pennsylvania is an imperial Commonwealth. It has sent into this war more volunteers than any other state. Its entire soldiery ex ceeds in number all the forces, fed eral and .confederate, that fought at Gettysburg. Its volunteer division, the 28th, will wear the Ited Key stone and live in history as the Iron Division.
