railroads in Pennsylvania and New

ment' in order Ito promote the larger
lerests and the greater good of the
public, the corporations. their en-

In no sense do the railroads" con-
tinues the statement, war upon their

compel employment on thousands of

gested. Because of the fact that the
structure would have had to be built
on a portion of the city park land the
Planning Commission did not pass
favorably upon it and the propo-
sition was dropped.
AS outlined by Mr.. Bowman, the
contract will provide that the city give
a plot of ground on the island shore
100 feet by 100 feet for this pur-
pose. concrete wall from seven to
ten feet high will be erected in such
way as to guard against the rush of
water or ice and at the same time to
prevent eddies that might divert the
currents against the island and so cut
away the sand or injure the trees In
cidentally it will allow of considerable
filing up by sediment and sand from
the stream. On this wharf the COM
pany will erect hopper with 20 or
so ton capacity, provided with a crane,
boom and "clam" shovel. Thus the
flatboats may anchor next to the
wharf and the coal may be lifted out
and into the hopper. Two 5-ton cleo
trio trucks will be used to transport
the coal from the hopper to the COM
pany's Ninth street plant. The hopper
will be covered with vines and other
shrubbery to hide the concrete sides
and the turning space and surround
ing banks will be sodded and main
tanned in keeping with the surround-
| ings. The company will be required
to keep such portions of the roadway
as it will use in good condition and to
grade the roadway leading to the top
of the dixie around the filter plant.
The whole structure will mean an
| expenditure of from $4,000 to $40, 600
by the company for this reason Com
missioner Bowman said he considered
| it only fair that the contract should
| cover a period of fifteen years.

BOSCH REELECTED
PRESIDENT Of CLUB
Motor Club of Harrisburg Chooses
Former Officers at Annual
Meeting

With an attendance that exceeded
any previous annual meeting OF the
M otor club of Harrisburg, and din
ner that surpassed in quality and va
riety that of any heretofore spread be-
lore It's members in former years, the
meeting at the Chestnut street hall
goes on record as the most success
ful ever attempted by the club. The
arrangements for the dinner were in
charge of Frank b. Bosch and Guy S.
Nogt, who deserve great credit for the
quality of materials served and the
appetizing manner in which they
were prepared and served. The mem
bers were seated at o'clock, prac-
t1cally all of the chairs were filled as
per card reservations sent in. The
name of each person who had signi-
| fled intention of being present was
| printed on a card at each plate. This
, method caused a general miX-up of the
members that made friends of
those on adjoining chairs who other
wise may have remained strangers.
After dinner President Frank B.
bosch made the address reviewing the
events of the year of interest to mot
orists and reported on what had been
accomplished by the club during the
| year. This included conferences with
officials of motor clubs in nearby
] towns and cities pertaining to road
signs and loose stone on highways;
the presenting of road drags to town
ship officials, the abolition of un-
fair speed traps by carrying cases of
members to higher courts; the sue
cess of orphans day outing; protest
ing against the throwing of broken
glass on pavement and highways; the
success of Thanksgiving Day economy
contest, and cautioning the members
against reckless driving and observ-
ance of road rules.
Visiting Speakers
! Among the out-of-town men who
spoke was DIR. Il. +. Campbell, presi-
dent of Irving college who created re-
peated laughter by his sallies of wit
and humor. In referring to the Me-
chanicsburg road as the finest in the
East, Dr.Campbell said the road
from Mechanicsburg to Harrisburg
was the worst But which part of the
road was the worse, depended upor
which part the motorist had gone
over last. f. S. Gerverich, president
of the Mddletown Motor club, advo,
Gated the abolition of the toll road
between here and Reading and spoke
about the cooperation in behalf OF
good roads. George Proud of Phila-
| delphia, proposed a three-day socia
bility through New Jersey in the
month of May. This was referred tc
the board of governors for consider
alton.
The former officers of the motor
club were reelected as follows: Pres
| ident, Frank B. Bosch; first vice-pres
Iident. II. w. Stubbs; second vice
president i. r. Downey; third vice
treasurer, j. Clyde Myton, and c. G
Coclslin. f. II. Bomgardner, John c
Orr were elected to the board of gov
ernors.
