Don't Be A Canker.

Every merchant and business
man should do his reasonable
part towards lettering condi-
tiOns for business in this partic-
ular town. When all take an ac-
tive part IN trying to further the
best interests of a town, success
is bound to come, but where little
effort is made towards the bet
terment of business conditions
bur little can be expected. Where
there IS unity of action on the
part of all concerned, there will
be found business of the various
kinds all enjoying a goodly por-
ton of the trade tributary to
that town.
The merchant who will not do
his reasonable part in advertising
and trying to induce trade to
come to his town is only a can
ker upon the community in
which he resides and tries to do
a business on the efforts put forth
by others.
A town of twenty or thirty
business concerns which will do
all their reasonable part in adj
vertising and trying to direct
trade, can accomplish a great
deal and not be burden upon
any, but where one or two firms
do the advertising, others receive
more or less indirect benefit from
the same, makingit discouraging
for those who are making an
effort to divert trade to the
town.
Every effort put forth to at
tract trade bel ps every business
man IN town. A merchant who
induces people to visit a town is
helping indirectly to build up the
trade of others, therefore all
should do their reasonable part
toward the betterment of bust
ness conditions of their own town
because unless they do, they
must see the trade go elsewhere

while their own town suffers
from the lack of enterprise on the
part of those who should be act
i've i'll trying to secure business.
In this day of great compe-
tition and cheap literature that
is spread broadcast over the land,
it behooves every man in business
to perform his part in securing
business. If you are in business
to make what you can through
the efforts of others, you are but
a canker upon the business COM
munity in which you are doing
so.

j. s. HAS NO LAW To
PREVENT SPIES FROM
SKETCH|NG DEFENSES
Foreigners May Show Their Gov
ernments Exterior Drawings or
Photographs Without Danger
INTERIORS ARE GUARDED
Present State of Affairs Is Re-
garded by Some Officials
as Dangerous

Washington, d. c., Aug. 14.--Tht
United States has no law to prevent
in time of peace spies from foreign
countries from making sketches, pho
tographs and plans of the exterior of
fortitications and the topography of
the land surrounding them. In time
OF war, however. martial law covers
such acts.
1t was stated at the Department of
Justice to-day that any person In the
government service giving out infor-
nation regarding the interior of forti-
fcations may be punished by law and
any private citizen who makes draw
lngs or pictures of the interior of for
tihcations may be apprehended. but
so far as the outward appearance of
forts is concerned agents of any coun-
try may obtain all the information
they can get under present laws.
This state of affairs is regarded by
some officials as dangerous, especially
to aviation fields. A foreign spy could
make complete plans of aviation fields
OF the United States government, show
ing where hangers and other buildings
are situated, without Violating any ex-
listing law
1t has been suggested that Congress
this winter make some provision more
adequately to protect American mill
tary secrets from foreigners and this
idea may be incorporated in national
defense legislation.

BANKERS ARE SEEKING
S50O,0O0,0OO CREDIT
Discussion of Methods For Ad-
vancing Sum Already in
Progress
NEED FUNDS FOR MUNITIONS
Credit May Be Secured by Deposit
Here of American Bonds
Held in Europe
NEED FUNDS FOR MUNITIONS
By Associated Press

New York, N. Y, Aug. 14.-Inter-
national bankers who have been
handling financial affairs for Great
Britain, France and Russia in this
country contemplated to-day the pos
sibility of arranging credit reaching
SoOO,OOO,OO0 to meet the situation
arising from heavy European pur-
chases of war munitions ana the con-
sequent extraordinary decline in rates
OF foreign exchange. Discussions of
methods for advancing THESE sums
were in progress.
One of the chief questions UP for
consideration was the nature of Sc
curity to be required for the advances
OF American funds. 1t has been sug-
gested that the credit may be secured
by the deposit here of American bonds
held in Europe. An effort to collect
such bonds for a similar purpose in
Great Britain recently did not meet
with an encouraging response. To
facilitate this operation it was said to-
day that it may be necessary for the
British government to impose a spe-
clal tax on American bonds unless
they are deposited with the pank of
England
1t is also proposed that British and
Canadian bonds to the proportion of
20 per cent. of the total be advanced
as collateral.
Suggestion has been mace recently
that S100,000,0O0 in credits chiefly for
Great Britain be established here but
bankers have now taken the stand
that when the bulk of American war
supplies in process of manufacture is
sent forward the final payment then
due will be so large that 500, 600. 900
was in effectual stemming the decline
in exchange rates.

Germans Occupy Three Towns

Petrograd Claims That Germans
Have Been Checked Between
Poniewesch and Dvinsk
BY Associated PreSs

London. Aug. IA, 1920 p. m.-Steady
progress for the forces of Prince Leo
pold, of Bavaria, eastward from War
saw is taken here to indicate that the
Germans are now massing their main
movements on a drive through the
Russian center and the continuance of
the enveloping effort in the north,
along the Dvina. Both Petrograd and
Berlin agree that the Germans have
occupied the towns of Sokolok, Siedlce
and Lukow forming GeGrman front
about 60 miles east of Warsaw and so
miles wide.
This is more than half way to Brest-
Litovsk which Crank Duke Nicholas,
the Russian chief,
hoped to make the new center of his
defence. 1t is now regarded as prob
able that this point will be abandoned,
owing to the speed of the German ad-
vance since the fall of Warsaw and
the continued pressure of the armies
of Generals Gallwitz, Scholz, Eichhorn
and Flack, forming a semicircle clos
ing in toward the north.
Petrograd claims that the Germans
have been checked between Ponie-
wesch and Dvinsk. Berlin, however,
does not concede this. but in any event
it does not affect the advance of the

Coroner Investigates
Mt. Union Accident
Where 8 Met Death
Special TO The Telegraph

Altoona, Pa, Aug. 14.-Coroner Pot
ter, of Miff1in county. and Pennsyl-
vania Railroad officials began to-day
the investigation of the accident at
Mount Union yesterday in which eight
men lost their lives. Engineer J. H.
Trout, of Harrisburg. who was on the
engine of train No. 20. which ploughed d
into the trackmen. with other mem
bers of the crew, gave testimony ro-
day and will go to Lewistown this
afternoon to testify at the coroner's s
hearing.
1t is the belief here that the men,
who we're working on the westbound
freight track, and had stepped off to
allow train to pass, failed to hear the
signal given by the track foreman, H.
E Mills. because of the noise made by
an approaching "jitney' train on an
other track and the passing freight
train.
Frank z. McCool. of Huntingdon.
died at the hospital last night, ten
hours after the accident occurred He
had been employed on the track but a
week and was but 10 years Of age.
His father was killed in a similar acci-
dent several years ago and it was to
support his widowed mother that he
tried to fill the place of his father.
