Prof. Harry A. Clark, of the Univer.

only an inspiration to the pupils of
the school there but would have been
of intense interest to the adults of
the city had they been fortunate

Prof. Clark, though young man, is
one of the strongest educators in the
state, and his series of addresses to
the schools in this section will result
in much good to the educational in
terests. His theme was principally
intended to impress the school boys
and girls of today that they will be
called upon to fill higher places to-
morrow, and that on them depends
the future of the state, and he point
ed out the avenues of usefulness that
each might be able to fill with ease.

Senator Robert L. Owen, Chairman Of

and Banking, Principal Speaker Of
the Occasion.

NEW YORK, Oct. 15.--Three mem
bers of congress, all of them promi-
nently identified with the administra-
tons efforts to enact the pending
currency reform bill, vigorously re-
piled to criticisms leveled at the bill,
particularly by the American Bank
ers Association.
Senator Robert l.. owen, of Okla
homa, chairman of the senate COM
mittee on currency and banking, and
Representative Robert j. Bulkely, of
Ohio, of the house committee on bank
ing and currency presented their
views at the national conference on
currency reform held under the aus
pices of the New York Academy of
Political science. Representative
Bulkely gave it as his opinion that
whether the bankers liked it or not,
the time had come when they must
submit to government control.
The railroads, Mr. Bulkely said,
have been put under government con-
troll, although their business was less
of a private one than the banking
business.
There is going to be government
control of banks" he continued. THE
time has come when the bankers
must see and accept the situation"

handed dow decision confirming the
verdict Of the lower court granting the

interest from the time of the lower

1t was brought out In this trial that

By its terms this contract Is made to

was whether or not such contracts
are valid. The superior court held
that neither the Pullman company nor

from liability for negligence by such a
contract. 1t Is the policy Of the law Of
the state Of Pennsylvania that com
mon carrier cannot by contract relieve
itself from liability for its own negli-
gence.
In having the courage to press this
matter and test the laws Of Pennsyl
