UNREST CURE
In Article Declares "Fuller
Knowledge of American
Institutions" Needed
By Associated Press
New York, Dec. 12.—The cure for
social unrest in this country is a >
| "fuller knowledge of American in- '
i stltutlons" declared President Wil
:son v -in an article written for the
current number of The Indepen-:
l dent.
j "Men to-day are blessed with a '
' new curiosity about their govern
ments," says the President. "Every
where they are demanding that the]
doors behind which secret policies I
have been Incubated be thrown open|i
and kept open henceforth. The ,
doors that do not respond to the
keys the people hold will be bat-1
tered down and free passageways
erected in their stead.
L4ve by Understanding
"Autocratic governments of the
past have lived by concealment; free
governments must live by under
standing. In the new day that is
dawning only those governments
that-have no secrets from their peo
ples can long, endure. I do not say
that such a government will make
no mistakes, but I do say mistakes
will be fewer and more easily cor
rected when all goyernments are
guided by well-informed public opin
ion.
Throughout World
"Unrest is evident everywhere
throughout the world. It Is not of
itself a disease, but a symptom of
disease. In our own country the
disease Ms principally outside the
government. Those who think other
wise are mostly the newcomers and
the men they have influenced. The
cure for their disquiet is a fuller
knowledge of American institutions.
In this nation the people have in
their ballots the instruments of
peaceful change.
"We can know if change is desir
able only by knowing all the facts
about the things we wish to alter.
The journals that give the facts
about government, its policies and
activities, set down by the men prin
cipally responsible for them, will
perform a public service. They will
afford a medium through which the
government can report continuously
to the people."
Y. M. c. A. nouns MEETING
The executive committee of the Y.
M. C. A. met this morning in the
Penn-Harris and discussed plans for
the coming year. Chairman W. D.

5,000 Vote For Landru,
Held For Disappearance
of Thirteen Women
Paris, Dec. 12.—Nearly 5,000 voters
in and near Paris cast their ballots in
the recent election for Henri Landru,
for member of the Chamber of Dep
uties landru has long been held by
the police and accused of being re
srortsible for the disappearance of
13 women to whom he is alleged to
have promised marriage.
His witticisms have made him
very popular with the Parisian pub
lic and this accounts for the fact that
5,000 persons erased the names of
candidates registered at the Ministry
of the Interior and wrote Landru's
name on the ballot.
Landru was called before Judge
Bonin on election day for examina
tion as to the whereabouts of the
Widow Collomb, who was registered
on the ballot list as his fiancee num
ber 7
Landru paid little attention to the
judge's questions, glancing pensive
ly oift of the window at the heavy |
snowfall. When the judge remon
strated with him he said:
'I am greatly concerned about the
outcome of the elections. These pro
ceedings here do not interest me. but
1 fear for the future of my country.
What a calamity should Bolshevism
rule in this landl"

POLICE MASCOT
IS RETURNED
Missing since Harrisburg wel
comed home her soldiers during early
October, Buster, the bulldog mascot
}f Harrisburg police, made his re
rppcarance at police headquarters
yesterday.
Buster, long mourned as lost by
the Harrisburg coppers, was found
wandering about in Second street,
by "Sammy" Klompus, who conducts
i newspaper stand at Second and
Walnut streets.
Klompus recognized the dag, and
although he bore the tag of another
jwner, he took Buster to police head
tuarters yesterday afternoon. Buster
was originally presented to the police
department during the late summer
by Frank Oenslager, of Riverside.
STATE BUDGET
SYSTEM GAINING
MANY FRIENDS
Constitutional Com m i ssion
May Find For Complete Re
vision of Basic Law
Belief that the State Constitu
tional Revision Commission will
ultimately find for the "complete
revision" whicW it Is authorized to
<lo under the act creating the body
lias been strengthened by the num
ber of amendments reported from
committee, in the neighborhood ol
two score having appeared, and the
question now is whether the legis
lature can not find a way whereby it
may submit a new constitution to
the voters of Pennsylvania without
necessity of a convention. Tnere
are some here who hold to the
opinion that the next legislature can
make the present commission a
constitutional convention by act and
provide that its findings shall be
submitted to the people.
If this position is correct and it
is being seriously 'considered the
people would be able to vote on a
new constitution next fall. The
point lias been made here that the
legislature has broader powers in
regard to revision than realized and
that the election of delegates is a
precedent.' The whole drift of the
business pf the commission has been
toward wholesale amendment and
unless there is a rejection of many
of the suggested amendments In the
committee of the whole the com
mission will be confronted with
what will be in effect a revision.
Men active in the Commission are
giving considerable thought to the
proposition of a budget for the
State government, which is paid to
have countenance in administration
circles. The committee amending
legislative matters reported in favor
of lumping appropriation bills,
which may be an opening wedge to'
a discussion of the subject. The
budget system has some adherents
in the Commission and in due time
it is probable that there will be
some people on the outside who will
desire to be heard. How far the
state administration will go in this
subject is a amatter of conjecture.
A fight Is looming up over the
charitable appropriation clause
which forbids any appropriation to
establishments where sectarian In
struction is given and it is sa'd that
the members from Philadelphia are
not a unit in regard to consolidation
o fthe courts of that city as was
done in the Allegheny county courts
some years ago.
When the committee on cities and
charters resumes its sessions it will
have before it a number of reports
on the manner in which munici
palities of the state are taking care
of their debt.
The first debates' will take place
next Wednesday afternoon when
the proposed changes to the exe
cutive and legislative articles are
scheduled to be taken up.
COMFORT STATION
IN ALLENTOWN
[Continued from First Page.J
stall for toilets will be pink marble.
All plumbing will be exposed in 30-
inch space easily accessible for re
pairs when necessary.
City Engineer Bascon says in
further explanation of the Allentown
plan: "Our theory is that the station
will be self-supporting: so we are
making a nominal charge for the
various classes of service. The reve
nues will be produced chiefly through
ooiq locks. When completed we will
have one of the finest comfort sta
tions in the land and we invite your
people over for inspection. If I can
be of any service in your proposition,
please call on me. Tour mayor and
councilmen spoke of emploving un
expert to prepare plans, specifications
end estimates. Do not make that
mistake for 'there ain't no experts in
this line.' Tt's all good, old common
sense, but I'll confess there are new
wrinkles cropping up every minute
and we have been over the entire field
and are pretty familiar with them
all."
Favorably Impressed
Harrisburg's officials are most
favorably impressed with the Allen
town solution of the public comfort
station question and it Is believed
that out of their studies will come
during the coming year a real solu
tion of the long-discussed Harris
burg situation. City Commissioner
Lynch has in his offices a copy of the
blue print plans for the Allentown
station and this shows a most prac
tical arrangement. It provides in
brief for two entrances from the
sidewalk similar to the entrances to
nnv subway In New York. Philadel
phia or elsewhere—one for women
and one for men. the underground
I l ooms being absolutely separate and
private. It is obviously the most
simple and practical arrangement
that could be devised.
Whether the public comfort station
in Harrisburg shall be located along
the sidewalk in Market Square, in
Market street in front of the Court
House or elsewhere, the Allentown
plan proves beyond any question that
the underground arrangement will
meet all the requirements at less cost
and without public offense.
Rnglneer's I'lans
The sketches of the engineer for
the Allentown station shows two
rooms with ample space and easily
accessible by stairway from the
sdewalk. To the right' of the
maindoor at the foot of the
stairwav. is the telephone booth
and near it a drinking fountain and
through the center of the room dou
ble rows of lavatories .with hot and
cold water. The urinal stalls are on
one side and the toilets on the other.
The whole Interior arrangement com
mends itself as practical, sanitary
and most convenient, the approximate
sizes of each room being (15x27.6. The
heating and wiring plan is well
worked out and clearly shown on the
drawings. ~ , ..
The same may be said of the
plumbing plan and the ventlllatlng
svstom. The overhead beams are
reinforced concrete, the top lloor be
ing reinforced with steelcrete mesh.
Two flights of steps are required, one
to the men's apartment and the other
to the women's quarters, but the ut
most privacy being assured through
a solid wall, between the two rooms.
Swinging transoms and plateglaas
windows are provided for the en
trance doors and the whole plan sug
gests the thoroughness of the Allen
town study.
MORE GROUND TO
BE DEEDED CITY
Final Details For Big Transfer
at Italian Park Arc
Made
E. C. Cowden, representing the
City Planning Commission, return
ed from Pittsburgh last night, where
he was In conference with the trus
tees of the MoKee-Grahum estate
over the transfer to the city and
school district of the important
property lying immediately north of
Division street, and between Sixth
street and the Susquehanna river.
While the general features of all
matters affecting the development
of this property for city and school
purposes have been agreed upon,
there was some difference of opin
ion concerning proper procedure. As
a result of Mr. Cowden's conference
and previous negotiations with the
various parties in interest all dif
ferences have now been straightened
out and the trustees of the Graham
estate have agreed to change the
form of their conveyance to the
school district. This agreement has
been signed by the executors and
will be presented to the School Board
for signature at its next session.
The Graham estate will deed 10.2
acres of ground to the city for the
Italian Pork area. There will also
be deeded to the city for highway
or park purposes the land lying be
tween the River Road and the low
water mark of the Susquehanna
river, about a thousand feet in
length. This is an entirely new grant
which had not been previously
agreed upon. There will also be
deeded to the Harrisburg Academy
3.8 acres of land, Academy trus
tees in this deed agreeing not to ask
any damages from the city for the
opening of Green street through
their property.
All these deeds are being sent to
Florida for signature and the title
to the school tract will pass on the
19th of December. This tract will
include 46.63 acres, but the s*hool
district will only pay for 41.81 acres,
the balance (4.82 acres) being al
lowance for streets, for which the
Graham, estate heirs have agreed to
make no charge.
'l'his conference practically con
cludes all question of dispute and
before the end of the year it js ex
pected everything will ho arranged
for the proper development of the
territory covered by these various
transactions, which represent one of
the most important improvement
steps of the city.
Rapid Depletion of
Reserve Stocks Alarms
Central Coal Committee
By Associated Press
Washington, Dec. 12.—The gen
eral fuel "situation and restrictions
on the use of soft coal were under
review to-day by the central coal
committee to determine whether
more drastic measures to conserve
coal were necessary. Consumption
has heen so much greater than pro
duction that officials here are alarm
ed at the rapid depletion of reserve
atocks.
"No substantial increase in the
amount of coal mined is expected
before Monday.
Railroad administration figures
show that on December 10, the last
day for which completo reports have
been there were moved 15,-
762 cars of coal, as compared with
the daily average of 38,822 cars in
the banner week of October. Of
ficials said a return to maximum pro
duction was imperative if disaster
was not to result.

FIRST DEFEAT
FOR TECH TEAM
Resista, Weighing but Ninety-
Eight Pounds, Holds
Maroon Team
Tech, 701 opponents, 0.
This is the record of the fungous
scholastic football team that won
i the national championship this
j year, There was a post-season con
test yesterday, and Tech lost out.
I One little nlnety-eight-pound girl
j was the victor. To-day.those Maroon
i champions are wondering what
would have happened had they
went up against a line of opponents
with this one little girl's ability.
Resista, is the name of the little
girl who is on the bill at the Ma
jestic theater. At her own weight
any person can lift her above tnelr
heads, but when she adds weight to
her body in her own mysterious
wry, there is another story to tell.
Yesterday the entire Tech eleven
attended the afternoon performance
at the Majestic. They had learned
of Resista and there was a deeply
planned plot to establish another
record on the part of the Maroon
champions. The plot failed, Re
sista proved she could stop the en
tire team.
Heats Tech Team
At her ordinary weight each
player took a turn in lifting the
little woman high over their heads.
Then she added to her strength and
not one Tech athlete could budge
Resista. Tony Wilsbach held the
wonderful girl until her weight
reached over 300 pounds and then
he flopped. Carl Reck, "Fat" El
linger, "Haps" Frank, "Snap"
Emanuel, Comfort, Lingle and oth
ers each took a turn, but Resista
would not budge. This was not all.
They used football tactics and tried
many other ways. Tech boys were
| a complete failure.
Itesistn stood on a small platform
and was pulled to a height of ten
feet above the stage. This was
easy. Then she took on weight. The
entire team of Tech athletes held
the rope, but that little girl be
came heavier every second and the
heavy squad of athletes were
