"DRY" AND SUFFRAGE AMENDMENT URGED The amendment to the Federal Constitution forbidding the manufacture and aale of Intoxicating liquors through out the nation has become a part of the fundamental laws of the land. The necessary three-fourths of all of the States of the Union, whose Legislatures sat last year or organised early In this year, have already indicated their ratification. While Pennsylvania's action upon the amend ment does not now affect the situation insofar as the ulti mate result la concerned, I hope that prompt alhrmatlve action may be taken by the Legislature that Pennsylvania may not be out of line with the practically unanimous senti ment of her sister States in the greatest and most far-reach ing self-disciplinary measure ever taken by any ngtlon in all history. The wonderful devotion, superb efficiency and noble patri otism of the women of Pennsylvania sliould bring them prompt recognition of their claim for and inherent right bo full citizenship. If Congress shall submit an amendment giving universal suffrage we should promptly approve it. If Congress shall not act favorably upon the matter a resolu tion proposing a State amendment should be passed. We should have a new classic geological survey of the State of Pennsylvania. The field work of the last survey was principally made about thirty-five years ago. Mean while geological science has progressed more rapidly than at any other period In its history.

It is long since these activities in Pennsyl vania ceased while Pennsylvania still remains the store house of uutold geological wealth, not alone in the poten tialities of the new mineral industries but in its unread chapters of the most impressive periods in geological his tory.

CITY PROBLEMS ARE URGED ON ASSEMBLY Oar greatest city needs assistance in the way of develop ing and regulating legislation. Many minds are now work ing upon the problem and many divergent views are ex pressed. There seems to be general agreement, however, upou tlie essential points of u greater degree of home rule within the limitations of the present constitution, a better fiscal policy, a reduced legislative body to replace the pres ent unwieldly bi-cameral Councils, and the absolute removal of tho forces of public safety from partisan politics. It is to be hoped that the various elements in the situation may get together and that Philadelphia may secure some much needed changes in her administrative organization. The mine-cave situation in Beranton and thereabouts is still menacing and if an effective and satisfactory agree ment cannot be reached that will protect this splendid city and relieve her inhabitants from the blight of this incubus upon the development of their community, the power of the State must not be withheld in remedying an intolerable situation. Fortunate in having access to the three principal systems of water-borne commerce, Pennsylvania has not been so forward-looking as she might have been In laying plana for the development of her ports on the l>e!awarp, her lake harbor at Erie and her outlet In the Pittsburgh district to the Mississippi Valley. May we not take some definite steps to assist in making practical improvements in all of ' these directions? With the demands of the national gov ernment upon our taxpaying powers, however, these enter prises seem more than ever to be rightfully a concern of the nation. Philadlphla draws much of her trade and finds an outlet for her increasing population in the section of the State of New Jersey close at hand. It is remarkable that a bridge or tunnel has not long since connected the great city with the environs seperated from it by a river but one-half mile wide. The State of New Jersey has authorized a participa tion in the building of a bridge and has provided a method for raising the necessary funds to finance one-half of the cost. We should meet this situation promptly and, in con junction with the city of Philadelphia, should get ready to join in the undertaking. We can spare enough out of our current revenues to bear the State's proportion in what might be inudc a great memorial structure In honor of our brave soldiers and sailors. There will undoubtedly bo a general movement in onr communities to erect permanent memorials to onr heroes of the war. I trust that these memorials may be useful and beautiful. Many of the monuments which have been built at our county seats and elsewhere In commemoration of the vulorous deeds of the defenders of the Union are inartistic and inaj>propriate. We ought to take steps now to prevent a repetition of this mistake. An Art Commission to which should be submitted designs for monuments and public ARMOUR THRUSTS I WARNING BEFORE SENATEPROBERS Tells Them "Monkey Wrench in Gears of Meat Business" Will Be Perilous By Associated Press Washington, Jan. 21. J. Ogdeni Armour, president of Armour : Company, told the House Interstate! Commerce committee to-day thatj pending legislation to regulate the meat packing industry was re actionary" and part of it probably unconstitutional. He warned Con-' gross that "If a monkey wrench Is thrown into the gears of this busi ness," its effects would be felt in many other lines of Industry. Warns Against Interference "If the ability of the packing in dustry to function properly is im paired," he asserted, "it will affect I the livestock industry and it in turn will affect corn prices. Wheat will I then be drawn in, and so will bread, |and so will labor, and so will every-' thing that has for its basis the wealth produced by agriculture. "The theories on which pending legislation is based are not construc tive, they are not progressive. They are reactionary. They wpuld disrupt! the great manufacturing nnd mar- j keting machinery which half a con-i tury of enterprise has evolved and 1 the results would be detrimental not alone to the leading industry of this nation, but even more so that por- • tion of the public which produces, j and to the entire public which con-! sumos food." Regarding the possibility of gov-1 ornment ownership of stockyards; and other adjuncts to the packing! industry, Mr. Armour said: . Red Tape Hold Progress "Ownership by the government! implies red tape and restrictions which cannot help but add to the: costs of the service, costs which must | eventually be borne either by the! producer or the consumer. Govern-1 ment ownership implic*, too, the| abolition of the private initiative! and enterprise which has made itj possible to erect an efficient stock yards almost overnight when occa sion justified it. Slow in Deciding "The government, you know, does not make up its mind'very quickly on such matters, as is evidenced by the years' old controversies over the building of post offices or such com partively trivial matters as to wheth er cities should have underground mail chutes." Profits made by Armour A Com pany, Mr. Armour declared, "rep resent a return of less than two cents on every dollar of sales. The margin of profit in the packing industry is the smallest enjoyed by any indus try of national consequence." Gross volumes of sales by his' company in 1918, he said, totsled ! $B6l 000.000 compared with $575,- 1 000,000 in 1917, but the net income! was at the rate of nine per cent, on I the average net capital Invested. He! added that the 400 per cent, stock dividend in 1916, whereby the cap-! itnl stock was raised from $20,000,- 000 to SIOO,OOO 000, was made pos sible by reinvestment during pre ceding xfars of seventy-one por cent, of the aggregate earnings. Pork Prices Greatly Increased The high price of meat. Mr. Arm our said, was the real reason why President Wilson ordered the e eat' packing investigation by the Federal I Trade Commission. Within the past four years, he said, the price of live hogs had Increased 245 per cent, and costs of labor, clerical help and fuel had doubled. As only seventy per cent of a hog is edible end the remaining thirty per cent, of by-products have not In creased in value as rapidly as the live animal, he said, it could be un derstood why bacon to-day costs three timos What It did four years ago. He added that prlees of live cattle and sheep have advanced at a pace with that of hoga Charges by the commission of col lusion among the five big packing firms to control prices were denied by the witness, who asserted: Denles Combination "Armour & Company are not now 1 and have not been for many years a | party to any pool, arrangement, agreement or combination for the ■ control, regulation or limitation, or I restriction of the purchase of live- I stock or the sale of any of the prod ucts or by-products thereof." | Mr. Armour declared that there I was keen competition between his tlrm and Swift, Morris, Cudahy and Wilson, and denied that there was any combination among the packers to tlx prices. Refutes Packers' Charges Regarding the charge of "outside lines" by the packers, he declared the Armour Company had under ! taken the sale of many lines which j it does not manufacture only be cause of the demand from their ! customers, who could not obtain sat j isfactory service elsewhere. Ho de nled that his Arm had ehtered or ln ) tended to enter the retail business, | or that it was interested in fish and vegetable canneries. Armour & Company, the witness I asserted, owns no livestock cars and ; only sufficient refrigerator cars to j handle its own goods efficiently. COAL COMPANIES FIGHT ASSESSMENT [Continued from First Page.] J I.no 000 to $60,000,000 can be seen only when it Is recognized that iiie .ax rate, five mills last year, can be cut in half or less, or a fund raised without stint for the build ing of the proposed new courthouse, needed bridges and the making of improved highways. J-ook For Contest County Commissioner Henry M. Stine, to whom credit is due for the investigation, speaking of the coal land assessments said: "We have had a number of conferences with the expert we employed and wi.l re ceive his complete report next month as contracted for. Until then we could not make any definite state ment except that the valuations of the coal fields in all probability will be placed that' high that the com panies will appeal to court, and it will be necessary to prove the ac curacy of the assessments. It is for this purpose that experts were en gaged to ynake a careful survey and leport to us. Just as other counties have done." Much of the land held in the upper end of the county is alleged by the holding corporation to be al- | most valueless. No coal has been | taken from the land and up until i the present investigation the coun- ' ty has never been sure whether the land is worthless or the most valu- ! able anthracite claim in the United btaies. These thousands of acres likely will prove the bone on con- j tention in the county courts. Commissioner Stine months ago ' urged the employment of a raining 1 engineer to study the coal beds here i so that when the triennial revision | of property valuations would bo j made the county commissioners j dould increase the coal land assess- j ment. Commissioners C. C. Cumb ler and H. C. Wells approved of the plan also and after a short delibera tion secured T. Klisworth Davies, of Scranton.

LEGAL PREVENTION OF STOCK SWINDLING URGED The Federal bureau in charge of the regulation of the issue of securities during the war has, in its report, given an estimate that over two hundred millions of dollars are annually abstracted from the people of the United States by means of the sale to the unsuspecting and Inexperienced of unsecured or fraudulent stocks and bonda. Just now a favorite plan of the promoters of shady schemes is to offer to trade Liberty Bonds for other so-called securities prom ising a higher Interest return. Much of thjs kind of busi ness is going on in Pennsylvania to the great harm of our people. The disappointment and loss occasioned by the inevitable full tire of these schemes shakes the confidence of the victims In all forms of investment, discourages thrift and liarms legitimate enterprise. We should have a law giving the Commissioner of Banking the power to investi gate and report upon all corporations seeking to sell securi ties to our people, and to forbid the salo of any stocks or bonds here without his authority. The Council of National Defense and Committee of Public Safety should be continued in a modified form to help in meeting the problems of peace. The Council of National Defeuse won the commendation of the officials at Washing ton and was ranked as the best and most efficient organisa tion of the kind in the whole country. It has developed and given to the State many useful agencies aiul has brought Into public life many citizens who will udd greatly to our force of trained public servants. These men and women should not be allowed to become disorganized and their u>e fulness lost to the State. The body should be continued as a Council of Ihtblic Welfare, and some of the lines of duty which it has been handling as war measures should be ' continued as serviceable adjuncts to the State government in times of peace. Certain of the agricultural, educational and conservation plans of the Council should be continued and enlarged, and the excellent system of volunteer poilpe which has brought a fine body of citizens into touch with the authorities throughout the Btate, should be provided for as a permanent body.

The Important subjects of 'old age pensions and insur ance against sickness will come before the Legislature in the shape of reports from the commissions appointed two years ago to investigate those new lines of humane pro vision in Pennsylvania. I do not know whether the work of these commissions has proceeded far enough to —eN* tlicm to make definite recommendations. These matters will have to he given close attention and possibly should be referred together to a Joint commission which could devise plans for welding them into a tangible relation with one another and then bring the whole Bnbject up for In clusion in the State's social program. The report of the commission for the codification of the banking laws will also be awaited with much Interest. This Is an Important subject especially In view of the great functions which the banks are performing in the country at fh< time. CAPITOL EXTENSION PROGRAM ENDORSED Plans of great artistic merit and utility have been con sidered for the Improvement of the State's property In Hnr rlaburg and the development of the Capitol Park. We should proceed with this and also erect buildings In ac cordance with the adopted scheme to house the depart ments which are now, scattered about the city and over the State. This is in line with the thought that the Statu should set an example in proceeding with construction dur ing the brief period of business uncertainty which ta pos sibly before us. This Is a long message, and yet I have barely touched upon the things of importance which should receive our at tention.
