TELEGRAPH M-VRCHII 191?) 1 GOVERNOR IS 1 BACK ON JOB [Continued l'rout Hist Page.] runners of more severe rhumatic^at tacks. My doctor says 1 piust cur tail my activities for a. couple of ' weeks and I-suppose 1 must obey my doctor. "My being kept at home, however, has not been an mfhitxed evil, be j cause it enabled me to survey the legislative field and to spend con- j ! siderable time with Attorney General i ; SohaKen in formulating* the adminis- I j tration measures which 1 desire in- | troducing into the Legislature and 1 which I hope will be enacted into | law. j Good Roads A itnl "The mot important of all pro- j i jects in front of me is that of good I ! roads. The legislation has been | J drafted and is on its passage through j j the Legislature. It will require an i additional measure or twoto create' the sinking fund when the amount | j of bonds to be issued within the next j j two years is determined. Mr. Sad-I ! let-, the State highway commissioner, j !is whipping his department into I splendid shape and results are btj- I | ginning to be manifest. . ■ Amend Constitution N "Among the measures which At torney General Schaffer and I put' into final form are the act providing ! for the creation of a commission fo I study and roport to the next Geri | eral Assembly upon the subject of ( the revision and amendment to the 1 Constitution of Pennsylvania. This f act provides Cor the creation of a | commission of twenty-five to study i the question of constitutional re vision and to report to the next Gen | eral Assembly in 1921. It is my 1 thought that the Legislature of 1921, ' with the report of this Commission j before it, is the proper body to de i termine whether a constitutional j convention should be called or j whether the Constitution can be! , wisely amended without putting the! | state to the expense of a complete I revision. This act will be intro | duced by Senator Crow, the Kepub- j t I loan leader of the State Senate, state Art Commission "There has also been put in final j form the aet creatjng a State Art' | Commission in the' Department of! | the Commissioners of Public] | Grounds and Buildings. This act] i provides for an Art Commission of! I five persons to serve far three years.j I without compensation io whom | ] shall be submitted for approval all] ] public monuments, memorials or . other structures which are to be-1 come the property of the Common- i wealth oty any of its subdivisions. It contains the provision that no public monument or memorial shall be constructed by the state or any of its subdivisions until the design and location shall be approved by the Commission. Tnis act will also I be introduced by Senator Crow j To Stop Fake Stock Sales I "Considerable thought lias bben' .given by the Attorney General and me to an act to prevent fraud and' ; deception in the sale of securities. An act covering this subject was intro duced by Mr. Vickerman in the sps- j . sion of 1917, and our study of It led' us to the conclusion that it was a 1 I well thought out and well drafted j j measure. It will be submitted by the Attorney General to the Banking Commissioner for his opinion on it, I and if he approves, it will be re -1 introduced into this Legislature. , | "The acts providing for the return i to the State of a portion of the per j sonal property taxes have been put J in final shape and will be introduced las an administration measure in the House. i, "The bill abolishing the office" of | fire marshal and transferring its I duties and powers to the office of] State police, is about readv for in troduction into the Legislature and] will very likely be introduced this' week. j "The bill providing for the geo logical survey of the State is in! finished form and will be introduced! j into the Legislature by Mr. Ramsey :of my own county, the chairman ot ] the Committee on Mines and Mining j "The legislation providing for the construction of the bridge between j Philadelphia and Camden, we have given I most careful study too. To provide, as 1 ; it must, for joint legislation by our own I State and the State of New Jersey and I by the city of Philadelphia, makes it no j easy task of legislative draftsmanship. | but we have it in such shape I think ! as that it will be acceptable all around, i and as soon as the Attorney General has an interview with the City Solicitor ' of Philadelphia, it will be ready for in j troduction. epresentatives of the Attor j ney General's Department have already j conferred with the Attorney General of i New Jersey as to the act to be int'ro j duced In that state. The New Jersey act ] ■ had to be put in shape very quickly. I i as our information is that to-morrow is ' ] the last day for the introduction of bills ] ] in tlie New Jersey Legislature. Abolish iluiiroiitine l)ar<l "Another act contemplated is that j abolishing the State Quarantine Board ] and providing for the enforcement of the laws relating to tile state quaran tine by the State Department of Health. This act is in tentative form and as soon as I have the opportunity to go j over it with Dr. Martin, it can be in troduced. Department of Conservation "One of the most important acts, as I view it, will he that creating the De partment of Conservation, which de partment will be charged with the en forcement of the laws heretofore en forced by the Department of Fisheries, the Department of Forestry, ttie ißoard of Game Commissioners, the Water Sup ply Commision and the State Forestry eservation Commission, which depart ments, boards and commissioners will be continued as bureaus in the new de partment. "This measure is in line with the pol icy of proper co-ordination of state de partments. which I think one of the very esential things to be accoVnplished. The drafting of this act involves the examination of a great number of other acts and the study that will avoid con-*! stitutional pitfalls and legislative mix- j tips. I think the Attorney General will have this act in shape for introduction I very shortly. "Another aet to which we are giving I great thought is that extending the powers of the State Police, so as to I make the State Police a self-centered j and comprehensive crime-detecting and j crime-preventing organization. This act I is_ receiving most careful study and will ! lie ready for introduction I think next week. , I "When these measures are enacted and the various departments of the state are co-ordinately working under them. I believe we will have the best] organized Commonwealth in the world ! and the most efficient public organiza- I tion now In existence."

"The second improvement is the j 1 | addition of at least six new filter i ■ j beds at the filter plant. At pres- ' ent we can filter water for all needs I ' when all the filters are in service. ] If for any reason one or more of the ] filters should be out of service the , capacity is not great enough.

This would release.:the ,re- j f turn main from the Reservoir and i 1 give up two force mains clear to the 1 j reservoir. If anything should hap pen to the present force main from Front street to Fourth street the city would be absolutely without water. This distance suggested is just about 2,000 feet and the matter of mhlt,r ing this connection was advised by both Mr. Ledoux who made a sur vey of the plant and also by Mr. Shaw, of Lancaster, who ..likewise studied conditions in the City very carefully."

Review of Shutdown A review of the situation in the city in January, 1918, during the I serious water shortage which forced! a general shutdown in the city for a short time, is given, together with I a brief summary of the measures j taken to increase the pumping capa city by purchasing an electric I pump. In mentioning the use of a supply from the Dauphin Consoli dated Water Company and from Steelton, Dr. Hassler suggests that _ a street main could be laid con necting the city lines to the Steelton i lines. AVhen the borougli south of ' the side furnished Harrisburg with i water it was done through lire hose a distance of about 2,0*10 feet. A | similar connection was made later i when Steelton faced a shortage of supply. The cost of installing the electric pump was $16,192.26 and of repair ing No. 3 pump which was out of service because of a serious break, $14,418.90. The cost of overhaul- i ing the two old engines at the pump- 1 ing station was $2,414.97. , Water in Riverside Dr. Hassler gives a statement of ] the acceptance of new rates as fur- ; nished by J. W.

On next Mon day night Mr. Ramsay will present a resolution v proposing an amend-! nient to the State constitution call ing for women's suffrage. That l'es- i olution must pass the 1919 and 1921 sessions of the Legislature and | then go to the people for their ap- ] proval in the fall of 1921. Suffragists Make Claim The suffragists claim that the 1 Ramsay resolution will pass the I.eg islature. The anti-suffrage women. 1 led here by Miss Eliza D. Armstrong, of Pittsburgh, say the suffragists will be surprised in the result in the Pennsylvania Legislature. The talk heard here is that the Republican organization will favor the Ramsay resolution and that he would not have agreed to have introduced the resolution if it were not to be sup ported in that way. Several prominent Republicans, who always go along on State or ganization matters, are saying tliey will not vote for any kind of suf frage legislation. As against th&t is heard the talk that the Republican leaders can pass any responsible legislation they sponsor and Mr. Ramsay is one of their leading spokesmen on the floor of the j llouse. Mr. Ramsay is the leader, also, i of the forces Who were opposed to j ratification of the national prohi- j bitiou amendment. That lends an j additional angle of thought to the | matter. A majority of the dry niefn- ' bers are <! aimed for suffrage at any ] and all times and if the wet mem bets. or any considerable number ! of them follow the Ramsay lend ; there is little apparent doubt rela- ! tive to the chances of the Ramsay J resolution'in lite House. Tntincdiatc Action Unlikely j Immediate action is hardly likely i because hearings will be asked and j the matter threshed out by the ! women orators on the.'.twp sides'to the question. In the last session when a similar resolution was up for consideration, the rcsoluttop wtrt de feated at the last minute, owing, it was said, to some statements made by suffrage leaders, . -• The action of tTKr suffrage le-aders on Presidential suffrage., 1.4 expected to strengthen fheii etianees here.
