| H9HMlmITHVW Board will follow
| 3voSO~ suit at a meeting
! tomorrow or next
szz lEAz day. Officials said
to-day that it was likely that all of
Allegheny county would be made free
from restrictions for foot and mouth
disease and that except for portion
of South Philadelphia the State would
be made open. However, the State
and federal authorities, who are work
ing together. will not abate their vigil
ance.
The State Livestock Board has had
every area which has been infected
lately thoroughly inspected and is in
possession of very complete reports
about conditions.
Board in Session. - The State In
dustrial Board is in session at Phila-
delphia to-day to consider applications
for modification of the State women's
law for hotels.
Censors Upheld. = The State Board
l or Censors created for the purpose of
regulating moving picture films, was
upheld by the Supreme Court yester-
day and the appeal of the film manu-
featuring concerns which attacked the
constitutionality of the act creating
the State board dismissed. Last Janu-
ary bill in equity was filed in Com
mon Pleas Court No. 5, Philadelphia

Corporation; Mutual Film Corpora
ton of Pennsylvania and Interstate
Films Company and the Overlook
Theater against J. Louis Breitinger,
chief censor and Mrs. E. c. Mover, as
sistant censor, constituting the State
Board of Censors. The complainants
asked for preliminary injunction re-
straining the censors from operating
under the act of June 15, 1911, regu-
lating the exhibiting and using of NOV
ing picture films. It was contended
by the film companies that the act was
against the State and Federal Consti-
tutions.

tomorrow when the State Industrial
Board meets to hear applications for
notifications of the womens employ
ment laws. Mr.. Gilday will have his
headquarters in Harrisburg.
Jitney Case Next. - Much interest
is attached to this weeks meetings of
the Public Service Commission owing |
to the fact that some steps may be |
taken to fix date for argument on the |
objections to the incorporation of the |
williamsport jitney service, which |
case contains most of the points in dis |
pute over the jitneys in the State. |
When the commission finished its
hearings last month ii arranged for |
briefs to be filed.
More Inspectors. - State Dairy and
Food agents, who have been engaged |
in collecting hundreds of samples of
milk and cream for a general State |
survey of the manner in which the |
milk standard act is being observed, |
will be started on an investigation of
the manner in which breakfast foods |
are sold within the next few days. This |
sampling will be in accord with a |
warning given some time ago by Com |
missioner Foust and will be fully as |
extensive as the milk sampling, which |
included 1000 samples in the 1901
communities. According to reports |
reaching the Capitol many grocers
have burned or thrown away cereals |
which they have had on their shelves
for long time and in some parts of
the State bargain" sales to clearout |
stocks which have not been good SELL |
ers because of change of public taste |
have been held.
Two Gases Likely. - 1t is probable |
that the State Board of Pardons will |
be asked at it's meeting in September
to hear the Pennington and March ap-
plications for commutation of the |
death sentence in the Delware county
crime which attracted much atten-
ton some months ago. March was re-
