WHAT THE LAW SAYS

Voluntary Contribution to the Repub-
hcan Central Campaign Committee for
campaign expenses will be much appreci-
ated
A LETTER of which the above is copy
"A has been sent out to city and county
oficehoders. It is signed by David H. Lane
as city chairman, and countersigned by Ed
win H. Ware chairman of the Finance
Committee. and, quite significantly. has
stamped on it "1Oqo."
The first section Of the article in the cleo
tion laws dealing with election crimes and
penalties declares that 1t shall be unlawful
for any committee or any member thereof,
directly or indirectly, to demand of any pub
lie officer or employe of any city or county
any assessment or percentage of any money
to be used for any political purpose whatso-
ever.
The second section of the law forbids any
Officer Of the Commonwealth OF the head of
any department in any city to make or to
permit to be made any assessment for politi-
cal purposes upon those under him
The third section reads in this way:
Third. That officer, clerk or employe,
under the Government of any city OF the
frst class within this commonwealth, shall,
directly or indirectly, solicit, collect or re-
ceive, or be in any manner concerned in
demanding. soliciting or receiving, any as
sessment. subscription or contribution
whether voluntary Involuntary, intended
for any political purpose whatever.
The proper penalties are provided for vio-
iation.
Senator Ware was doubtless advised that
he was within his rights as an officer of the
Commonwealth when he signed his name to
this indirect demand for contributions from
city and county employees, but as Pudd nhead
Wilson said. 1T is difference OF opinion that
makes horse races"

in giving his party the name of Franklin
had lot to do with making up the minds Of
the men who elected him, and so 1t win
doubtless go down to history in the legend.
And the real truth is usually told in legends,
just as poetry is always truer than prose
An interesting thing about Mr.. Altman,
by the way, is that he has always been as
much under the sway of the arts as Of
business. He is patron of the Philadelphia
Orchestra and has a collection of fine paint
ings Social service has played a big part
in the years of his retirement from business.
He is a director of the Vacant Lots Assoc
citation, which provides the poor with ground
to cultivate free of rent, and of the National
Farms School at Doylestown. He is a life
member of the Manufacturers Club, mem
ber of the City Club and Of the Economic
Club He lives at 1919 Walnut street.

the possibility always in mind of becoming an
artist. His employer went to California for
his health and gave Mr.. Altman his great
chance. The latter conceived the idea of
establishing a mail-order system, which had
never been done before in that kind of bus-
ness. Everything went so well that next
year, when he was 81, he got an interest in
the business. He retired five years ago and
is now 50 years old.
Mr. Altman has been identified with inde-
pendent movements in this city for years.
but was always contented to play a part that
did not bring him prominence in the news
of the day. He was indefatigable in getting
the necessary funds and did lot of work
in Porter's primary campaign. He is men,
ber of the Executive Board of the Commit
tee of 100. Upon his shoulders fell most of
the work of engineering Directors TaylorS
Transit Committee of 1000. The businesslike
way in which he has done public spirited
work of this kind commended him to the in
dependents as a good man to manage Porter's
campaign and he was chosen campaign
manager last Friday. But there are many
who will like to think that his inspiration

PLoUGHsHAREs AND ABsINTHE

T,HE changes which the Great War has
Il made IN the minds of men cannot be
better symbolized than by the insignificant
incident Of absinthe. The liquor was consid-
cred by Frenchmen and foreigners alike to
be the curse OF Paris. Today It is being
turned TO uses of war.
The important thing, though, is not the
change in France. That country is SUM-
ciently hard put to 1t to go to any extreme.
The truly significant thing is that the world
which was wont TO praise, with a deep sim
cerity those who beat swords into plough
shares, win now praise those who distil abb
sinthe into ammunition.
We have come to understand that war.
when II is necessary, has it's triumphs no less
than peace.
