to reach tho
WlnSafifaaafifiß contract stage.
There have been numerous discus
sions in states and acts by legisla
tures about memorials, while a num
ber of artists are at work on them,
but none has gotten as far as that
I of the Keystone State.
The contract for the memorial will
be signed in a few days and Gov
ernor Sproul looks for an early start
on the preparation of the site. The
papers will be passed upon by the
Attorney General.
Plans for removing the tracks
from State street and the construc
tion of the detour on Fourteenth
street for Lingkistown, Progress and
Pesibrook Square cars were discussed
,with Deputy Superintendent George
A. Shreiner yesterday afternoon with
Harrisburg Railway officials. The
plan is to take up the tracks as
soon as tho Fourteenth street line
can be laid. City officials accom
panied the street railroad men. In
cidentally, the railways company is
considering the Herr street line seri
ously.
Pennsylvania Railroad officials are
at work on'the details of plans as
the bridge relates to them. ,
Suggestions for changes in the
building and loan association laws
which will permit such organizations
to devote resources to large building
operations to furnish homes for sale
to members and generally as J
means to prevent dwellings getting
into the hands of profiteers were
made to Governor William C. Sproul
by a committee of Philadelphia
builders headed by Burton C.
Simons. The committee found that
State laws would have to be altered
to carry out some of the ideas. In
the course of the discussion several
things were mentioned in regard to
the relation of some building and
loan associations to building and
house-buying operations which the
Governor said would be useful in the
investigation of charges made
against profiteers. They will be laid
before Commissioner of Banking
John S. Fisher, who returned from
Philadelphia, where ho had been
making a preliminary survey of con
ditions. The Commissioner is said
to have been assured by people ac
tive in building and loan associa
tions that if any thing is wrong they
want to know so that they can help
the State enforce compliance with
tlie laws. Commissioner Fisher will
>:ve a conference with Director
Frank B. McClain, of the Welfare
Commission, next week in regard to
the proposed investigation by that
body and its relation to what he will
undertake himself at the request of
the Governor.
Governor Sproul has appointed
these trustees for mothers' pensions
for York county:, Mrs. Margaret
McCall, High Rock; Mrs. Helen Lo

The first complaint ever made to
the Public Service Commission that
an issue of stock by a corporation
in this State had been misrepre
sented, was heard by Commissioner
John S. Rilling, E. J. Boyle, of
Wilkes-Barre, alleging that the
Wilkes-Barre company, a light and
heat concern, had declared in an
advertisement that an issue of $lOO,-
000 of stock had been approved by
the Public Service Commission. The
company had only filed a certificate
of notification and later announced
that it had made an error through
having followed a New York form.
It also announced willingness to re
fund any person who had been de
ceived. On the other hand, it was
charged that the company's pros
pectus did not give the same pur
poses of the issue as the certificate
of notification. As the Commission
has held that it could only receive
notices of stock or bond issues and
not act on them, the decision may
create a precedent. Some of the
bureau officers of the Commission
are anxious for a ruling to be made
that will establish the powers of
the Commission. Arthur L. Hull
represehted Mr. Boyle and Ralph T.
Baker the company, the hearing
being animated at times.
State Treasury receipts In Sep
tember ran below the expenditures.
The income was $3,236,444.49 and

ments from the road bond issue ac
count having reduced them from
$18,143,496 at the end of July. The
balance in the general fund at the
end of September was $3,751,325.85.
while the road fund had gone down
to $11,143,924.28. The motor ve
hicle license fund stands at $137,-
154.86; game propagation, $165,-
907.54, and bounty fund, $242,267.86.
The funds uninvested include Fire
Insurance $282,736.27 and school

Papers for the acquisition of seven
toll roads in Eastern Pennsylvania
are now being prepared at the State
Highway Department and the turn
pikes will be turned over in a short
time. The State has acquired the
Marietta-Maytown turnpike in Lan
caster county and the road is now
free from Columbia to Maytown and

A man and his wife were looking at some suits in the
