f15rrs, 8. D., Nov. 13. The msmbsrs
of the tax commission have formulated
. new taxation code to b. presented 70
the next legislature, in which the gen.
eral theme is to give moro power to
the commission and TO the state lsgis--
lsturs In taxation matters. In order
to bring about the proposed changes It
will bs necessary to secure the sdop.
ton Of several constitutional amend.
ments and the attitude OF the voters In
the recent election IL not encouraging
on that point.
The commission would have section
II, Of article 6, read IS follows: "No
tax or duty shall bs imposed without
the consent of the people or their rep
resentatives in the Legislature" This
change would give the legislature an
restricted authority under the rights
granted to 'their representatives. In
the legislature."
A recommendation is made for o
change In section Q, Of article IL, relst-
ing to classidcations for taxation pur-
poses. Tho intent of the change in
his section is to remove present con-
stitutionsl restfictions aud give more
authority to the legislature and the tax
commission.
The proposed code recommends
striking out all of section Z, of article
z, which provides that sll county, town
ship and district officers shall be elect
i've, except school ofncsrs. The stated
purpose Of this recommendation 10 to
permit Of making county assessors ap-

GERMANS AT GRIPS ON BANKS
OF THREE RUSSIAN RIVERS
Bp Assoeiated Prcss

London, Dec. 23.-The eighty-mile
front in Poland to the west of Warsaw,
where the Germans and Russians are
at grips on the banks of the Bzura.
Rawka and Pilica rivers. continues to
he the scene of the most desperate
fighting in either the eastern or west
ern arenas of the war.
When the weather conditions under
which the troops are fighting are re-
called the sufferings of the men in the
trenches may to some extent be ap-
preciated. The country is experiencing
the full force of winter. Each side
has sustained tremendous losses in this
battle of the rivers, and. although the
Germans claim to have forced the
Russian line at number of points. it
is nevertheless q fact according to re-
ports reahing London, that the Rus
slams have been STRENGTHENED. and it
is difficult to realize which contender
has the strategic advantage.

lily. He works in a cigar factory
now; but he isn't going to stay there
and he will advance in life. Next comes
Conrad Weller. IT years old. His
story is practically the same as George
Nagle's He too is ambitious. At the
head of the table, next to the teacher
sits John Orbin, a bricklayer, 81 years
old. John will not always lay bricks
n the hot interior of a blast furnace.
He studies too hard for that.
No Partisanship Here
At this one table the ages range
from IA to As. At some tables there
ire many women and girls. In all
there are five nationalities. Creation,
Servian, German, Italian and Bulgar-
an-all are friends and are striving
for but one end-to become good
American citizens
What does this mean to Steelton?
Just this: There will be less 1gnor-
ance, less crime. less poverty. There
will be n better citizenship. When
these foreigners" learn to speak and
read correct English no political ward
heeler will march them up to voting
place and barter their suffrage like so
much merchandise. They will be cap
able, clean-t thinking American citi-
Zens.
Pastor Assisted by Young Teachers
At the head of the school is the Rev.
]. FL. Royer, pastor of the First Meth
odist Church. He is assisted by about
a score of young men. girls and wo-
men from his church. Too much can
not he said in praise of their work.
Without a cent of pay they are la
boring two evenings each week at the
hardest kind of mental tasks Yet
they never complain. No matter how
hard 1t is to make student under
stand, these teachers never lose pa
tience. They explain and explain and
explain until the student just must
understand. Among these teachers
are:
Mrs. ]. Elmer George. Mrs. G. o.

Steelton M. E. Church Making
Good American Citizens Out
Of Foreigners in Night School

Should you have quietly opened one
or the doors leading into the basement
of the First Methodist Church, Fourth
and Pine streets, last evening, and
lpeered inside, you would have seen a
remarkable sight. Seated about rough
pine tables. backs bent studiously over
the papers spread out before them, or
peering intently towards the front of
the room where a gray-haired, kindly
faced man was drawing crayon pic
lures on a rough blackboard, you
would have seen little groups of shah
by foreigners.
Foreigners? Beg pardon-future
American citizens of the better class,
was what was meant. For that is just
what the Rev. ]. II. Roger and his
alert, capable corps of assistants are
turning out from this cosmopolitan
group of students, in the English
School For Foreign-spealking Resi-
dents of Steelton," conducted by the
First Methodist Church. Rather a
long name, that, but it signifies pos
sible the greatest movement ever un-
dertaken for the advancement of the
civic welfare OF Steeiton.
Those Whom You Will Find
Here in this school, about which
illlic IluS betn NTlIlSn anu less Is
known, you will find men bent, long
before their time, from their heavy
labors before the binding furnaces at
the big steel plant; you will find the
ambitious youth of foreign parent2ge
who already realizes the handicap of
faulty language, and wishes to es-
cape; you will find the red-cheeked
fgirl of Sweet sixteen" who although
she tolls long hours in an ill-smelling
cigar factory, still knows how to smile;
here you will find middle aged women,
old men, mere boys-in fact every age
is represented. And all have but one
desire, one aim--to learn to speak the
English language correctly.
Let us take one of the dozen or more
tables in the room. At the foot of the
table sits little Frank Orbin. IA years
old. Frank goes to a parochial school
but he is ambitious and sees a chance
to secure additional instruction free.
Next to him sits Joseph Czegledi, an
Italian. Joseph is As years old and is
a carpenter-when he can work, but
just now there is no work.
Close beside the Italian, George Ma
gle, 16 years old leans studiously over
his first reader" George was COM
