Governor Using
His Big Veto Ax
Governor Sproul has vetoed the \
bill providing a method of letting
contracts for street and highway
lighting in townships and villages
on the ground that the plan pro
posed would be unfair "perhaps, un
constitutional and not conducive to
j a proper relation between the gov
erning authorities and those gov
• erned."
The Governor vetoed on the
ground that acts already approved
1 covered the subjects bills relative
to appointment of detectives by dis
i trict attorneys in counties having
j between 150.000 and 250,000 popu-
I lation; empowering duly qualified
[ soldiers and sailors to register as

| thorizing school boards to permit use j
i of grounds for recreation purposes, i
| He also disapproved the bill to in- j
• crease salaries of county commis- J
j .-'ioners of all counties except Phila- j
I delphia and Allegheny on the ground '
j that the commissioners generally do !
not devote all of their time to their j
j official duties and that they are suf- j
' riclentlv compensated.

In Heart of Trucking
District They Pay More
For Food Than Phila. j
Palmyra, N. J.. July 17. Stirred ;
by many protests from citizens, the
township committee of Palmyra has j
begun a war on the high cost of living. 1
It is charged by consumers that local :
merchants charge more for the same I
article than is paid in Philadelphia.
! and that even produce raised on nearby I
farms is held for "outrageous" prices. \
: Tomatoes, for which the farmers have i
! been getting something over $2 a bas- ;
ket are sold for 20 cents a pound, or i
I $6.60 a basket. Similar or higher j
• profits are demanded for cabbage, po- !
j tatoes. lettuce and other produce, some I
iof which is grown within the town |
| limits.
In addition to exposing the situation 1
through the newspapers, the township
chairman. John M. Davies. and Com
! mitteemen Hill and Cook have decided
i to open a curb market. Freeholder Win
field I-and. who is also a township of
• flcial. to-day went on a tour of nearby
farming districts to make arrange
-1 ments with farmers to bring produce di
-1 rect to the market. It is proposed that
the farmer and consumer share the

\ the costs of duplicated transportation.
Plan to Check Radicals
of Prohibition in House
I Washington, July 17.—Conserva
, tive members of the prohibition
i faction in the House set out to-day
to curb what they described as radi
' cal attempts to make the pending
j enforcement bill so drastic that it
i might create a revulsion of feeling
throughout the country on the whole
| question of liquor drinking.
| Warning was given by the eon
; servatives that if the radical ele
j ment went too far and added other
severe restrictions they would be
] certain to invite defeat in the Senate
! and possibly find all of their work
I thrown out by a presidential veto.
The need of wise counsel was point
] ed out by the conservative prohibi
tionists in view of the published an
; nouncement that Representative
; Morgan. Republican, of Oklahoma,
j and a member of the Judiciary
I Committee, had given notice that he
| would endeavor to make it a viola
; tion of law for a man to keep a jug
j of liquor in his own home for his
j own use.

prescribed limitations to be fixed by

and service of the Mahoning and She
nango Railway and Light Company

ing should be held.

Fear of Temptation to
Escape Keeps Convicts
From Taking Camp Jobs
Auburn. X. V., July 16.—"Convicts
in the oldest prison in use in New
York State prefer to stay behind the
bars rather than enjoy life in the
open as workers in road camps."
That is the strange announcement
made to-day by State Superintendent
of Prisons Charles F. Kattigan. who j
I declared that the moral fear of the
I temptation to escape keeps prison
ers at Auburn State Prison from
accepting the free life of the road
instead of the drab monotony inside
the walls.
Auburn Prison is located in the
Finger Lakes region and the gangs
of convict highway builders are sta
tioned at wild spots along the im
proved roads linking and circling
the inland lakes. Many/have made
acquaintances in the summer col
onies. Chances for a getaway are
numerous. In this environ, the ex
ceptional lure of the lake country
to freedom, to independence and to
recreation in the zone which was
the playground of the Indian, ac
tuates the men in declining to take
a chance on resisting the temptation
to flee, according to Superintendent
Rattigan.
In virtually all cases where es
capes have been effected from road
camps, the convicts have later been
apprehended. Their sentences were
then extended. It is the grim fear
of this possibility which the super
intedent asserts is keeping the men
In gray from the woods and glens
and limpid waters of the Finger
Lakes.
Movement to Free Toll
Roads Remaining Begins
Lancaster. July 17.—The State has
appropriated a certain amount of
funds for the freeing toll roads, and

Lancaster county is preparing to
assist in getting Lancaster's share.
A large mileage in Lancaster county
is still toll bound. A definite plan
of action for the association will be
worked out at the meeting of the
Executive Committee next week.
The residents of Lancaster county
must show where funds are needed
and deserved. The members of the
Executive Committee are C. A. B.
Zook, chairman; Richard M. Reilly,
Alfred H. Myers. Benjamin C. Atlee
Milton H. Ranck and A. J. Knappi
