w TITH the closing of the Sixty,
M third Congress 1t is pleasing
w to note that Congressman A
8. Kreider has done excellent
work for the old soldiers. lie has
proven himself their friend and has
been exceptionally successful in OBJ
tanning pension legislation in their
behalf.
For instance, the President recently
signed a bill granting an increase OF
pension to Martin P. Schaffner, OF
GratZ, and one for William Reigle. of
Palmyra, increasing his pension to $40
a month, Mr.. Reigle being totally
blind. A third bill for the relief of
William Hewitt. an invalid soldier OF
Lebanon. will go to the President and
receive his signature and incidentally
an increase TO $50 per month.
Another bill, the passage of which
Mr. Kreider secured after many diff
culties, provides a pensionable status
for Francis Tomlinson. who has never
drawn any pension heretofore, but will
now be entitled to $50 a month. 1t is
commendable to note that Mr.. Kreider
obtained relief for this worthy veteran.
who recently passed his eightieth mile
stone and is past helping himself.

HEROES OR MARTYRS

- EVEN men left the halls of Con-
Eress yesterday who ought to
~ have a vote of thanks from the
country at large. They are the
seven Democratic senators who hero
Ically resisted the order from the
White House to pass the obnoxious
ship bill regardless OF anything but
he Presidents wishes.
SO absolutely dominant has been
President Wilson at Washington dur
ing his brief reign as the dictator OF
The Democratic majority that this one
particular instance of resistance to his
will stands out above every other oc-
3urrence at the national capital during
The past two years. Congress regular
.Y up to the time of the defeat OF the
shipping bill had existed merely to
register the edicts emanating from the
White House. President Wilson. not
withstanding his wordy opposition to
so-called "Cannonism." had welded
up to that time control over Con-
Eress that must have made the vener-
able Uncle Joe" blush for shame and
envy. The seven who stood by the
safe and sane Republican minority did
so at the expense of Presidential pres
tige. The President is no longer to be
looked upon as invulnerable. His will
is no longer law. Those who have
taught the country this lesson have
naturally incurred the enmity Of the
executive. Time only will tell whether
they are TO be martyrs as well as
heroes.

THE VISITING SECRETARIES

HARRISBURG has as its guests
- to-day the secretaries of Cham
= u bers of Commerce throughout
Pennsylvania. These young men
all of them are young, if not in
years, at least in spirit-make a busi-
ness of town-boosting. To each of
them the city he represents is the
most enterprising, the busiest and the
best in the State. He would not be
a secretary worthy of the name did
he not think so. But with loyalty
they combine common sense. They
know that no one town has a monop-
oily on all the good things and they
have heard that Harrisburg has been
able by persistent and conscientious
effort to corrall not few of them.
Consequently, they have congregated
here to-day. not solely for the pur-
pose of exchanging ideas relating to
their own work, but to see what it is
that makes every HarTisburger as
great a booster for his home city as
may be met anywhere. 1t is to be
hoped that they will be duly impressed
and be able to find here sufficient to
pay them for their visit.

department. Modern banks in healthy
condition compete for the profit to be
had in handling loans, and unless
their credit officers are thoroughly eff
cient men backed by well organized
offices, the bank is not only not pre-
pared to handle applications promptly
and effectively, but are in a position to
endanger the whole banking struc-
ture.
More banks go to the wall because
they have failed in their credit de-
partments than because bank officials
have been dishonest. 1t is the bank
that looks most carefully to its credits
that is safest for its depositors and
in the long run most profitable to its
stockholders.

Take one good shot at Spring.
For Spring is sure a tickle maid,
She sends her sunny smile
Upon us for day or two
And makes life well worth while.

We hack and cough and sneeze.

ton to his fellow members-"How
many Holsters should the law permit a
lady TO eat?"
Not very long ago newspaper
paragraph set forth that a lady from
the Bronx had eaten twenty-one
crustaceans at single meal in COM
petition with a Harlem man who
found seventeen to be the extreme
limit of his stomach. il not of his
appetite. This has led the legislator
mentioned to introduce a bill making
such wholesale consumption OF iop-
sters misdemeanor, punishable by
fine and imprisonment.
How many Holsters should a lady
eat?" Why just as many as a perfect
lady would deem it ladylike to eat.

size of the lady and the proportions of
her escorts bank account.
The New York Journal wonders edi-
torially why any sane and intelligent
legislator should take up his time and
the time of the lawmaking body with
such matters. The answer is easy.
The rural member is accused of play
ing to the farmer vote every time he
introduces an agricultural bill, and
that being so it is only reasonable to
conclude that the member who pre-
sents a lobster conserVa ton measure
is playing for the lobster vote.

TRIPPING GASOLINE OUTPUT

OF Mines has approved discover

triple the gasoline output of the United
States. will quiet the fears OF those
who have been looking forward to the
possibility of gasoline famine. The
secondary announcement of Secretary
Lane that methods for the production
of coal tar dies and high explosives
have been developed, which, when
put into operation, will eliminate for
eign competition in tho sale OF these
articles in this country is scarcely less
important.
Anything that will give the United
States an advantage in the markets of
the world at the present time is worthy
OF consideration. Neither Germany
nor England is going to stand idly by
after the war is over and see American
manufacturers taking away from them
the trade they have long regarded as
theirs. 1t would not be surprising to
find these two countries, now so in
tensely striving each to throttle the
other. entering into a trade agreement
for their own protection against the
aggression of the United States. Now
is the time to intrench ourselves, and
it is to be hoped that the several lines
of industrial development announced
by Secretary Lane will have been so
enlarged by the close of hostilities in
Europe as to give this country a big
advantage in the foreign trade they

ABSURD ACCUSATIONS

@ITY COMMISSIONER LYNCH
announces the good news that
- the spring improvement work is
under way-which means that
outdoor operations will give work soon
to many OF those who have sought
employment IN vain the past winter.
\ week or so ago Mr.. Lynch and his
two Republican colleagues in council
were accused Of holding up contracts
for the deliberate purpose OF keeping
men out, of work. Yet with the frost
still in the ground public improve
ments have been begun in no small
way. The fact is that Mr. Lynch and
all the councilmen, regardless of party,
are anxious to do what they can
toward providing employment for as
many men as tho funds at their dis
posal will permit, To think other
wise would be to believe them as self
iSh and wicked as some of their critics
are silly and untruthful.
