Samuel Cecil, a young married;

C;ink a large quantity of milk, j
which counteracted the effects of j
the tablets. The cause for her act j
is said to be brooding over a letter |

During the summer of 1917, it is:

' have been the cause of her attempt

i i
termination of the question of vac
cination in Pennsylvania.
According to a statement issued
todav the comm'ssioner has retained*
by direction of the "Attorney Gen
eral, special counsel in counties of
the State where it is claimed that
flagrant violations of the vaccina
tion laws have been discovered. Last
: year there were numerous outbreaks
of smallpox and in many communi
ties difficulty was encountered in en
forcing the vaccination law. Since
. that time the matter has been under
investigation and in addition to per
sons violating the vaccination law
the State will proceed against all
who have gone counter to orders
issued under'the Pennsylvania health
laws. , Beginning with Cambria
i county the prosecutions will be
started in alphabetical order. Arthur
C. Sintler, of the Cambria bar, has
been named to have charge of pros
ecutions in that district.
More Charters.—Removal of re
l strictions on capital issues by the
I" Federal government has had the ef
fect of causing a marked increase in
the number of charters issued since
tlie first of the year. Instead of a
dozen a week as high as thirty and
for!;' have been granted and the
capital is now only $5,000 in rare
eases. Most of the charters call for
higher sums, a number being $50,-
000 to $lOO,OOO.
Over Until Fall.—Continuance of
the appeals in the "full crew cases'"
by the superior court while in ses
sion here this week will have the
effect of postponing hearing of those
appeals until fall. The Public Serv
ice officials have been following up
developments in the matter of rail
road administration orders regard
ing size of train crews.
To Push Legislation.—Appearance
of the State Department of.Agricul
ture reorganization and other admin
istration bills in the Legislature will
have the effect of speeding up work
in opinion of officers of the general
assembly and it is probable that
during this week action toward fixing
| a date lor adjournment about May
S oz 15 will be taken. Efforts will
a'tro be made toward getting in the
appropriation bills, the number in
hand now being short the custom
ary list, and then a date will be
Established when introduction of new
I measures must stop unless by un-
I anintous consent.
During the week Speaker Robert
j S. Spangler called attention of ment-
I bers to the fact that they must be
| ir their seats when voting and also
1 that bills, unless of great import
j ancc, should not be passed the first
' time as soon as reported out. Ob
[ lections to the latter procedure was
made by several members during
I sessions when many bills were com
; lag out.

'Dr. Eliot Advocates
Big Profit Sharing
Boston. March 15.- —A program
! for co-operation between capital and
labor designed to bring about "a just
settlement of industrial strife," was
i outlined yesterday by Charles W.
j Eliot, president emeritus of Harvard
! University, at a legislative hearing
! on a bill for tlie appointment of a
1 special commission to study the
i hours of labor in Massachusetts in-
I dustries.
lie favored the bill chiefly, he
1 said, "because I believe it to be in
expedient, not to say absurd, to at
: tempt to fix by law the same number
' of hours for all industries without
j regard to their infinite diversities, or
' for all establishments in the same
I industry."
As a final basis for his program,
j Dr. Eliot proposed:
"General adoption of a genuine
partnership system between the cap
ital and the labor engaged in any
given works or plant, whereby the
i returns to capital and labor alike,
after the wages are paid, shall vary
with the profits of the establish
! ments, the percentage of the profit
! going to the payroll being always
much larger than that going to
! shareholders or owners, and the
payroll never being called on to
make good losses. As a means of
securing to employes full knowledge
of the partnership accounts, they
should always be represented in the
directorate."
