MANY BUSINESS
MEN VISIT BIG
TRACTOR SHOW
Day of Exhibit Brings j
New Crowds to the
Warcrooms
The second day of the tractor
truck exhibition at the Overland
plant. Twenty-sixth and Derry
streets, saw a mighty busy selling
bee, for the tine weather brought
out hundreds of solid businessmen,
farmers and industrial heads who
are meeting swlfty tlie call for all-,
niotor travel. It was pointed out to
day by an expert that fifty per cent,
of the perishable foods raised in this
country is wasted because they lucl:
means of transportation to points of
consumption. Our highways have
been regarded merely as local con
veniences until within the past few
years. But little attention has been
paid to the tools for these high
ways, or the proper use of them
and tlie beneficial results obtained
through their use.
The fact that short and long dis.
tance traveling is a cinch for the
modern truck, as proven by long
trips made to this show by the fa
mous types on exhibit, has caused
a steady increasing demand for their
use until it is apparent that the
day Is not far distant when motor
transportation will assume as im
portant a position and bo as com
monly used as our trains and our
steamships.
This morning about half a dozen i
garden tractors took their place in
the big plant, although Mr. Dill had
part of his exhibit destroyed in the i

press of the nation have been glow
ing in editorial appreciation and
much praise has been given the
lecturer, For instance, the Lancas
ter Intelligencer said: "Dr. Walsh s
lecture was heard with profound in
terest. The nuggets of thought so
richly scattered through his talk of
an hour and twenty minutes will he
treasured as precious remembrances
of his visit. The charm of t lie speak

lie gives a talk, not a lecture, and he
possesses the rare faculty of being
able to clothe the deepest truths
ill language so clear, that he who
runs may read."

SENATOR SMITH'S
ACT PUTS LIBRARY
ON SOUND FOOTING
iStnlc Librarian Montgomery
I Says Measure Will Be
of Much Value
I Concerning the bill reorganizing
i the State library, introduced into tlie
Senate by Senator Frank A. Smith,
Dauphin, Thomas Lynch Montgomery,
State Librarian, made the following
comment this morning:
"For many years, the State Library
has been working under a great
handicap due to the fact that the pro
visions of the act of 1880, under
which the library operates, lias long
since become obsolete.
"Under its provisions, the control
of the library is vested in the Gov
ernor, tlie Secretary .of the Common
wealth, and the Attorney-General.
Were its provisions strictly enforced
tlie members of this board would be
forced to spend the greuicr part of
I their time in the library building.
I "The act of 18S0 gives the State
i Librarian tlie. power to hire his sub
• ordinates, but prevents him from dis-
I missing them, thus taking the most
necessary authority from his hands.
| "The new bill is based upon recom
mendations submitted by the State
economy and Ffflciency Commission,
j of which Harry S. Mclfevitt, present
. secretary to the Governor, was chair
man.
I "The recommendations submitted
I included the abolishment of the Hoard
of Library Trustees, and the free Li
brar.v Commission, and includes nub-
Stan tfal salary increases,
j "In former times, however, there
were numerous frees connected with
i tue office of Librarian and Deputy Li
j nrarian, which have since been abol
ished, so that tlie increase in pay
I )<l|,f, ly brings the proposed remun
eration up to the past standard."
Under the provisions of tlie bill,
j the salary of the Librarian is increas
|ed from $4,500 to $O,OOO, and the
• ?oo PUly L,brarian lro n $2,500 to $::,-

WOULD PUTSTATE
TAX ON COAL LAND
OF ONE PER CENT.
| "Near Beer" Bill Also Makes
lis Appearance in
the House
i
A Slate tax of one per cent, on the
i value of all coal mined and prepar
ed for market in Pennsylvania would
be established for state purposes
only under terms of a bill introduced
in the House today by Mr. North.
Chester. The bill would effect both
bard and soft coal.
The bill follows the ideas in form
er laws, which it would repeal, and
requires production reports to be
made to the Auditor General.
Representative North said he
! thougnt that there had been such
la heavy drain on the State resources
j that more money must be provided
I for roads, and schools and while he
\ did not designate that the millions
j that would be raised by tlie-'proposed
i tax should go to any speeitlc pur-
I pose he felt that they should be so
devoted. The bill repeals the an-
I tluacite coal lax laws o£ previous
years and provides that mo tax
shall be levied on both bituminous
and anthracite coal. In the main it
contains features of previous laws,
including the reports required for
the auditor general to calculate the
tax and ten per cent, penalty for
failure to pay with a penalty l'oi
failing to. report. Legislative lead
ers said today that they had not been
consulted about the North bill.
A bill was introduced by Mr. Pow
ell. Luzerne, providing that no li
cense other than a mercantile license
shall be required for sale of liquids
containing less than one half of om
t per cent of alcohol. Under the pres
ent law liquor licenses would have

Twenty-Eighth Division
Coming Home as a Unit
Washington, March 25.—The War
Department will be ready in a few
days to announce the cantp or
camps to which the Twenty-eighth
Division will he sent for demobili
zation upon its arrival in this coun
try from France.
It was stated at the department
yesterday that the general head
quarters stuff of the American Ex
peditionary Forces has released the
twenty-eighth Division, and it was
said that the organization prob
ably has broken camp in the so
called advanced area and either is
at port or en route. At least six big
transports or warships will he de
tailed to bring the division back to
this country, their departure being |
eo arranged as to have the various
units arrive at about the same time,
as was the case with the Twenty
seventh Division, New York.
Officials of the department ex
pressed doubt that the ships would
be sent to Philadelphia unless spe
cific and urgent requests are ad
dressed to the Secretary, of War
within a short time by the mayor's
committee and other* official and
civic organizations in Philadelphia.
There was no disposition at the War
Department to believe that the se
rious situation in Hungary probably
calling for military action by the i
Allies would in any way affect the
sailing date of the Pennsylvania di
vision.
