DEPUTY CENSOR !
PROVIDED FOR
New Measure Would Abolish
Branch Office For Western
Counties at Pittsburgh '
Provision for a new officer of the
State board of moving picture cen
sors is contained in tile Mearkle bill
which is on the second reading cal
endar of the Senate with amend
ments made by a committee. This i
officer is to be known as the "deputy
! of the board" and is to have qualifi
cations by education, training and
experience and have offices in Pitts
burgh so that the western Pennsyl
vania film manufacturers and pro
ducers can have the advantage of
an examination officer in that city.
The present headquarters of the
board are in Philadelphia, and a
proposition is under way to move
them to this city. This movement is
to be effected this year or as soon as
suitable quarters can be engaged. The
salary of the deputy is to be made
$2,000. The amendment also provides
that two inspectors may be assigned
to the deputy, one to be a woman,
and to be paid $1,400 and a stenogra
pher at $1,200.
The House roads committee will
act this week on a bill presented by
Representative C. E. Cook, of York
county, to reduce the state bonus to
townships for cash road tax from
half to one-third of the tax collect
ed. This appropriation has not been
made for several years. A bill for
$1,142,949.38 for 1913 and 1914 has
been incorporated in the highway ap
propriation. Almost $2,000,000 was
paid last year for 1910, 1911 and 1912.
Owing to the big drain on the treas
ury there has been talk of eliminat
ing the bonus and the Cook bill looks
like an attempt to cut in order to re
tain it.
A number of county officials are
coming here this week for further
conferences about the bill to make
half of the personal property tax pay
able to the state. County officials
have been endeavoring to reach some
sort of agreement ami the plan is to
have the state assume charge of col
lections.
Opposition to inclusion of regula
tion of water supply in the scope of
the proposed Department of Conser
vation and pronounced objection to
tile forestry regulations has come to
the front and the measure in its pres
ent form will be attacked at the hear
ing to be held by the Senate ap
propriation committee which has it in
charge. This opposition is totally I
different from that displayed against
the bill by sportsmen and fishermen,
and indications are that the hearing,
on the measure will be lively. Some
of the railroads, water companies
and even municipalities have shown
a disposition to inquire about the
bill and will send representatives to
| tile hearing. The hearing will deter
j mine whether the administration will
I push the bill. Interest in it. has not
been very strongly manifested the
j last week or so.
The House military committee will
have a hearing on the Scott military
training bill which may lead to the
formulation of a State policy in re
gard to such educational activities.
Some of the advocates of the training
have found that to provide instruc
tors for all of the high schools alone
would require a big appropriation,
and with the teachers' salary increase
coming along they are disposed to
tind out what the state can give and
what proportion of the expense can
be borne by local school districts.
State factory inspectors are hoping
! for action in the Senate soon on the
Murdoch bill tq raise salaries. The
inspectors made a drive in this direc
tion last session and are hopeful of
recognition. The fifty class A men
ask an advance from $2,000 to $2,400;
I twenty-five class B men, from SI,BOO
to $2,000, and twenty-five class (' men
from $1,500 to SI,BOO.
