BURTON TELLS Of
S. A. OPPORTUNITY
Tells Harrisburg Commerce Cham
Der of Big Chance in Neigh
boring Republics

Urging such modification of the
national laws as will permit small
manufacturers and producers of this
country to band together and establish
agencies in South America to compete
for trade, and advising local business
men to form close union so as to be
in position to take advantage of the
trade expansion era. Senator Theodore
p. Burton, of Ohio, at noon addressed
the Chamber of Commerce at a lunch
con in the Harrisburg club.
Senator Burton who recently re-
turned from South America after a
three months visit spoke on trade pos
sibilities in South America by special
request.
Better results with South America
are but a part of our new position
with the nations of the South" said
Senator Burton. I'VE have main
tanned peace when more than half the
nations of the earth are at war, and
to assume the leadership in the
worlds progress now belongs to the
United States. Our success in this
regard will be measured by the degree
in which we succeed in rising above
the tendency which makes for mar
rowness and isolation and meeting our
new responsibilities in manner
worthy of this republic"
THE Latin American States need
our capital, the leadership of our eX-
perts, our expanding industries in their
markets and they. in turn for their
development and better enjoyment of
the comforts and facilities of life, re-
quire the commodities made by u.s."
I'm the last twenty years we have
entered upon a new era" continued the
speaker. Formerly we exported agri-
cultural products predominately. What
is most needed is an expansion of ex-
ports of minor articles, hardware,
leather wood, certain textiles, in fact
all the varied articles made in Ameri-
can mills. From this standpoint Har-
risburg is especially interested because
of the varied character of its indus
tries"
Immediately afterward Senator Bur-
ton was taken over the city, through
the residential and business sections
mobile. He left the city at Sis

Only Three in Thousand
Have Chance to Advance

Chautauqua, n. Y, July 16.--"The
Prussian system of autocracy is not
confined to Europe, but is found in 4
splendid state of preservation in the
American public school system and in
the American industrial corporation"
said Professor Scott Nearing in an ad-
dress here.
Our modern public schools are
drilling pupils into servants instead of
into the competent leaders which we
need to solve our social and political
pl oblems," he continued. 1.-The rigid
discipline crushes out personality. The
many-sided curriculum leaves the
average youth no chance to develop
initiative or personal interests.
Our history and civics teach the
principles of freedom and personal in
dependence and the need for thinking
and action. The average public school
child, however, is chucked into an in
dustrial world which demands abso-
Lutte and unquestioning obedience.
This crushes out personality by its
mechanical routine. That is why we
lack leaders,
Professor Nearing said that the
American motto, There is plenty of
room at the top" is no longer true on
account of the fact that in every great
industry only three out of every 900
employees have chance to rise to
the top.

SET DYNAMITE BOMB
FOR BROADWAY LIMITED
[Continued from First Page. !

by investigations now being made, the
attempt to wreck the train was the
most daring that has been made on
the Pennsy in years
The pipe was packed with enough
dynamite to wreck half a dozen trains
and had the engine of the limited
struck the pipe the entire train would
likely have been thrown over the bank
with a terrific loss of life and property.
Trains Close Call
No. 29 is the fastest express on the
Pennsy lines, making the run from
New York to Chicago in nineteen
hours. The train is due in Altoona
at 9:42 p. m. and at Vineyard about
$40 p. m.
According to the story told by West
brook. he had been visiting some
friends above Vineyard and was re-
turning to his fathers home. He was
walking along the tracks when he saw
the piece of pipe lying across the rail
at No. track. He at once investi-
gated and was terror-stricken to find
that the pipe was packed tightly with
dynamite. The pipe was eighteen
inches long and about six inches in
diameter.
The missile was found west of Vine
yard and just below the site of the
new powder works. Westbrook took
the pipe from the tracks and had
scarcely deposited the thing gingerly
on the embankment at a place Of
safety when the fast express thunder
ed by, on the same track from which
the explosive was taken.
Westbrook carried the explosive to
the tower at Vineyard, and turned 1t
over to the. operator there. The oper-
ator at once flashed the word to this
city and within a few moments Cap
tain of Police G. Chal Port and several
officers were on their way to the scene
of the near disaster. The officers spent
the greater part Of the night at work
on the case.

cheerful disposition. One may even
get along without the two former, but
the colonel insists on the pleasant
smile.
The big camp is laid out with all the
order and precision of a military en-

WHITE HEADS NEW
STATE COMMISSION
[Continued from First Page. ]


College to the development of agri-
culture and its allied branches of Penn
sylvania should be thoroughly studied,
and plans worked out for discussion at
frequent conferences, which, the Gov
ernor said, he would attend.
The commission elected II. V. White,
of Bloomsbury, as chairman, but the
Governor said that he was not ready to
announce Immediately the Secretary of
Agriculture, who is to be the eXecu-
tive officer of the commission. lie has
several men in view, he said, but con-
sidered the study of the agricultural
situation more important than appoint
mcnts. The new commission is COM
posed of Frank S. Black, Somerset
county; Marvin E. Bushong, Lancaster
county; Alba ]. Gilfllan, Mexican
county; Henry T. Moon, Bucks county;
Maurice T. Phillips, Chester county Ia.
B. Sexton, Bradford county, and MIR.
White.
After leaving the Governors office
the new commissioners went to the De-
partment of Agriculture. where they
met Secretary Critchfield, and spent
the rest of the day meeting division
heads and discussing the operation OF
the department. They will spend sew
eral days here and arrange for visits
to State College and to agricultural
districts, returning here later in the
month for consultation with the Gov
ernor.
Governor Brumbaugh said after the
meeting: II suggested to the commits
sioners the importance of the survey
of agriculture. The commissioners are
to-day visiting the divisions and study
ing the organization. l suggested that
they go slow about reorganization and
make no radical changes. i consider
it important that the commission listen
to what the people want and learn how
the bureaus of the department were
created in response to demands, then
working out the details of their rela-
ton to each other and how they can
be more valuable to the state at large.
Before any constructive work is under
taken the relation of State college
must also be considered.
"I intend to sit with the commission
and to tell them what l have learned
in travels about the state and to tell
them my ideas on working out the
plans just as l have been doing with
the Highway Department. l consider
that there is great field for this COM
mission, but it must work out the
problems and then get together and
discuss concrete propositions for build
ing up agriculture"
The Governor gave no intimation as
to whom he would name for secretary
or when he would announce his selec-
ton. Secretary Critchfield will act for
the present. but as there is preliminary
work to be done not much in the way
of appointments can be expected this
month at least.
The divisions of the department
were visited during the afternoon and
general discussions will be the order of
the day for "A while
