The New Guard—Adjutant Gen
eral Frank D. Beary Is arranging for
a series of conferences with olficers
of the Twenty-Eighth Division upon
j their return with a view to ascer
taining how many of them will re
i enter the new National Guard. Steps
| for the organization of units this
I summer and fall are being taken
land the Reserve Militia will be eon
solidated with new organizations in
some eases and form the basis for
regiments.
Will Start Soon—Preliminary re
i ports received at the State Highway
! Department indicate that there will
| not be much time lost in getting
work started on several of the big
contracts for construction let early
this month. In several counties,
assembling of material has been
started and arrangements for labor
are under way, while county author
ities have signed up agreements for
joint construction. Rids for over
fifty miles of new highway will be
opened at the Department early in
May.
Close of Draft—Supplemental his
tories of draft boards arc being sent
to State draft headquarters from a
number of towns where men who
served as members of organizations
in charge of the elective service are
completing writing of incidents con
nected with the operation of draft.
Many of these statements "deal with
the manner in which the draft was
received and how the letters from
men after they reached camps and
Franco changed State
headquartcVs will lie retained to
close up the draft work in various
lines.
Suggests OwncrslUp—The Public
Service Commission, in deciding the
first complaint brought before it
against rates charged by a sewerage
company, directs the Wayne Sewer
age Company, operating in Delaware
county near Philadelphia, to submit
new rates to the commission. These
rates are to yield an annual income
of $18,500, being based upon a val
uation of 1017. The commission de
clares that rates fixed by contracts
must give way when found to be
unreasonable, that it cannot sustain
covenants contained in deeds assur
ing free service and that a perpetual
exemption of properties front pay
ment of rates would he contrary to
law. The opinion contains this para
graph: "It may be that the acquisi
tion of the respondent's plant by the
municipalities in which complain
ants reside, at a fair value, would
be the best solution of the difficulties
and thus relieve the rate payers ofj
■the direct and unusual expense for
sewerage disposal."
To l.ist All Men—Steps to obtain
information about all men of the
Keystone Division who have come
home in advance of the Pennsylvania
Guardsmen as casuals or for other
reasons, are being taken by the Ad
jutant General's department. A num
ber of men have been listed and it
is the idea to get into communica
tion with them as soon as possible
when the time for the parade is
fixed. The department is endeavor
ing to arrange with the War Depart
ment some plan by which notice of
the sailing of ships containing Penn
sylvanians from France can bo given
prompt'y.

PENROSE CALLS
FOR MORE ACTION
Says That Time Enough Has
Been Lost in the Legislature;
Coming Back Monday
United States Senator Boise Pen
rose, who came to Harrisburg last
night for his first visit to this legis
lative session, cieclared that weeks
enough had been spent in discussing
legislation and that it was time for
action. He was particularly interest
ed in Philadelphia bills and teachers
salary bills and said that he expected
to stay here until Wednesday eve
ning and would return Monday of
next week. The Senator indicated
very clearly that he meant to insist
1 upon some things and the talk was
j that there were going to be some
1 understandings reached on a good
j many subjects before the Senator
I goes home.
I Almost as soon as he reached
Harrisburg the Senator said "The
time has passed for discussing legis
lation. It should be expedited. I
have come here to make an effort to
get action on bills and will remain
until Wednesday at least and come
back Monday."
The Senator remarked that he had
appointments with men from all over
the State for Harrisburg, this week,
and expected to see them here. "1
shall visit the Hill and call upon
some heads of departments no doubt
and will also see Senator Crow and
other Legislators," said he in dis
cussing his plans. "I did not come
here to speak to the Legislature es
pecially." replied the Senator, when
asked if there was anything to the
report that he might address the
two Houses as he has done on pre
vious visits. "However, I may do
so, but I am here to get some action
on the so called Philadelphia bills
and others."
"Does that include the Brady
bills?" was asked.
For Teachers Increase
"Yes, and the school teachers'
salary hill and a dozen others on
what not much progress has been
made," answered the Senator who
went on to say that he had been
oppealed to by teachers inasmuch as
he had added to the deficiency bill
an increase for the teachers of the
District of Columbia. Unless teach
ers are given adequate salaries, he
pointed out. there will not be teach
ing staffs in some of the districts.
When asked if he had heard that
a one mill 'tax on manufacturing
capital had been suggested as a
means of raising money to pay the
teachers, the Senator said "Yes, that
has been mentioned, but there
is no definite plan. 1 think the Statp
lias enough revenue without addi
tional taxation."
The Senator said that he had
heard the suggestion that local dis
tricts should hear half of the cost
of the increased salaries, if the State
met fifty per cent, and continued
"Ever since 1885, there has been a
sentiment in this State against tax
i ing manufacturing capital. It has
grown to be strong because it has
brought many industries to Penn
sylvania, and I think we should loath
to disturb the situation in that re
spect. The United States and this
State —the whole country in fact —
have been taxed to the point of
strangulation, and if pushed much
farther it might result in paralysis
of industry."
The Senator said that he expected
an effort to be made to get the Wood
ward bills out of committee as soon
as possible and that District Attor
ney, Samuel P. Rotan, and his as
sistants would be here Tuesday
morning on the district attorney hills,
which he said should be acted upon
without any mare delays.
In reply to questions he said that
he thought if the Police Commission
hill went in, the Woodward bill could
he amended so as to dovetail with
it, and that minor amendments
which would not make any,radical
change's to the Woodward bill might i
bo offered. These, he said, would
be presented in the House as the
bills had been delayed in the Senate
long enough. He said he did not
know about an amendment giving
councils right to make contracts.
Will See Governor
When asked if he expected to see
the Governor, he said that he hoped
to do so, hut that he could not speak
for the Governor on the Philadelphia
charter hills. "The Governor will
speak for himself. I can only refer
you to what he said at a banquet in
Philadelphia on that subject," re
plied the Senator.
The Senator said he had not given
much thought to the hill for an
elective school board.
In a formal statement as to rea
sons for his visit the Senator said:
"My purpose in coming to Harris
burg is to lend my influence in sup
port of the Woodward charter revi
sion hill and other legislation having
for its object the attachment of mu
nicipal good government. Months
ago I gave my public pledge to the
citizens' committee, formed for the
purpose of framing this legislation,
that I would do what I could to
favor its adoption, and I shall re
deem that pledge to the best of my
ability.
"The Woodward charter bill is, I
believe, a very meritorious measure.
It represents the thought and work
of a large number of public-spirited
citizens of all shades of opinion, men
who have given years of study to
the problems of municipal govern
ment. It has received the indorse
ment of the city's principal business
and civic organizations, of church,
labor and fraternal bodies, and un
doubtedly is in accord with over
whelming public sentiment in favor
of lettering civic conditions.
"With the. framing of this legis
lation, I had not the slightest part,
having been entirely occupied by my
duties in the recent session of Con
gress. But it is entirely in line with
the position I have maintained for
many years in reference to municipal
affairs in Philadelphia and the de
fects in the Bullitt hill. As long as
fifteen years ago I publicly declared
my conviction that the misuse of des
potic powers placed In the hands
of the Mayor by the present charter,
particularly the abuse of the police
in politics, was a public evil that
should be corrected. Time and again
I have reiterated- these convictions,
and on more than one occasion have
given my personal influence to cor
rective measures in the Legislature.
"Had my own personal views been
embodied in a bill to-xevise the gov
erning laws for Philadelphia, I will
state very frankly that such a mea
sure would have gone Very much
further than the Woodward bill or
anything that has been prepared. I
would favor an entire change in the
municipal structure, and give the
city the most business-like form of
commission government that could
be devised. If Philadelphia's busi
ness affairs were entrusted for a
period of years to a commission of
seven, nine or eleven high grade,
efficient men, and were absolutely
divorced from politics, either of the
Penrose, Vare or independent varie
ties. this city would have a tremend
ous impetus in business, commercial
industrial and civic affairs. I should
be very glad indeed to leave the se
lection of such a commission, and of
HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
a Mayor to head it, to the good Judg- j
ment and splendid common sense j
of Governor Sprout, who has shown
by the appointment of high grade I
heads of departments to conduct the I
affairs of the Commonwealth of ]
Pennsylvania what an executive of
efficient, practical judgment can do j
in the management of public affairs. ;
"Constitutional limitations and j
other objections might be raised '
against such a plan, and, further, •
I have no desire to urge my personal j
views or preferences in the matter !
of municipal changes. The Wood- |
ward bill is a splendid measure
which, undoubtedly, will correct j
many of the defects in the present
system, while leaving the fundamen
tal structure unchanged. The citi
zens' committee and the business
and civic organizations which spon
sor it have frankly stated that it is
open to betterment in the Legislu- 1
ture, and if amendments are pro
posed or adopted they should be en
tirely in line with the spirit of the
bill to correct and better municipal
conditions. Sniping and gassing by
political or factional opponents
should not be tolerated in such a
program.
"Several months age Governor.
Sproul gave to the community a '
broad-visioned thought for a police
or public safety commission |bat
might embrace all the communities
in the Philadelphia suburban and
industrial districts. If such ware
possible of enactment, it should have
the support of every broad minded j
citizen and Legislator. In my judg- i
ment of a metropolitan police com
mission, under appointment and con
trol of the Governor of the Common- i
wealth, and entirely divorced from
the power of the Mayor and all
political interests in the city, is ab
solutely sound.
"Therefore, I would favor as a
corollary to the Woodward charter
bill, the enactment of a police com- !
mission bill for Philadelphia, with j
the added feature of making it pos- j
sible to embody the Governor's ideal
of extending the metropolitan police
to adjoining counties, but the inclu- I
sion of such borough, townships,
cities or counties as may voluntarily j
decide to be included in it.
"Undoubtedly the most important
item in the whole program of muni- j
cipal redemption is the divorce of;
the police from politics. Even the
oplitical opponents of the Woodward I
bill have been obliged to heed this
public demand by sponsoring the j
introduction of bills which recognize
the principle of a police commission,
although entirely nullifying its ef
fect by taking control of such a
body out of the Governor's hands,
where it properly belongs. But
with practical unhnimity of senti
ment in the principle, there should I
be no difficulty in the enactment of
legislation that will, it is to be hoped
take the police of Philadelphia im- j
mediately out of politics." i
