LABOR men IN favor OF.
OHIO COMPENSATION Law
Call ON the Governor and Tell Him They
Recommend It's Adoption With
Amendments to Conform to the
Pennsylvania Constitution

Forty-eight labor men, representing
every union in Pennsylvania and head
ed by Frank Penney, of Philadelphia,
and John Bonner, of Tamaqua, chair
man of the legislative committee of the
unions, called on Governor Brumbaugh
last night in the interest Of workmen s
compensation legislation. The Govern
or met the committee in the reception
room on the first floor of the Executive
Mansion.
Mr. Penney introduced the members
of the delegation and called attention
to the fact that at the meeting of the
labor representatives in this city during
the week, Mr.. Bonner was elected chair
man of the legislative committee in
place of Representative James Maurer,
and the conference chose James Oats,
of Pittsburgh. Governor Brumbaugh
said that he would be glad to confer
with Messrs. Bonner and Oats from
time to time on legislation affecting the
workingmen of Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Penney informed the Governor
at the recent conference unanimously
favored the Ohio law with the necessary
changes to conform with the Pennsyl.
vania constitution, and went on record
favoring the commission form of ad
ministering compensation.
Governor Brumbaugh stated that the
Republican platform called for work
mems compensation act and it is the
desire of the Legislature to enact such
law. He pointed out that there are
three things that should be given con
sideration above everything else. First
the enactment of law that makes com
pensation positive without any possibil
ity of an employer avoiding this liza
bility; second, to expedite payments anC
prevent litigation in the courts; third
to conserve life and limb by making the
employer put in adequate safety de
vices, thereby preventing accidents anc
the necessity for compensation.
Governor Brumbaugh asked the com
mittee to confer with Attorney Genera
Brown with view of fastening WORK
on fair compensation act.

GOLD LETTERED SIGNS

"On the matter of domestic econ
omy in the American household, which,
it is asserted, the housewives and the
boys and girls of the family no longer
practice, it is interesting to know that
if economy be lost art at home it is
pursued with a great deal of care in
many lines of business" remarked
Henry A. Shields, of New York. "I
was impressed few months ago by the
observation of sign painter, who in
formed me that he could not deliver a
sign / had ordered on a certain day
because in the intervening time he
would have the quarterly clean up day.
| was curious to know what clean up
day meant, and he told me.
cit appears that in the making of
signs great deal of gold leaf is used,
and necessarily some of it is wasted,
just as it is when gold letters are
placed on show windows. / had never
noticed that when the painter is at
work putting the leaf on he is careful
to conserve all the leavings. Just so
in the shops. All refuse there is care
fully brushed into pile and kept. In
three months time there will be a
great deal of what appears to be rub
bish around sign painter shop, but
the painter knows its value. This rub
bish is cleaned up, slowed in bags and
sent to Philadelphia, where it is
screened and the particles of gold leaf
extracted. My friend informed me that
it is not unusual to get as high as
500 out of one shipment of rubbish, all
of which goes to the workmen in the
shop and not to the owner. Wash

Governor and MCCORMICK
MUNICH APPLES together
All Is Harmonious When DR.. Brum-
baugh and His Erstwhile Rival for
Office Come Together at Meeting
of the State College Trustees

When Governor Brumbaugh stepped
into the office of John Price jackson,
Commissioner of Labor and Industry,
at the Capitol yesterday afternoon to
attend the meeting of State College
trustees he met for the first time his
opponent in last falls campaign for the
Governorship, Vance G. Mccormick, and
also William I. Greasy, the Democratic
candidate for Lieutenant Governor,
both of whom are members of the board
of trustees of the college. President
Parks, of State College, who was pres
ent, when asked about the meeting said
1t was most harmonious one, and we
all sat around and ate apples. - 1t is
presumed that Farmer Greasy fur
nished the apples from his famous Cata-
wissa orchard.
Governor Brumbqugh explained his
ideas regarding the separation of the
educational and administrative features
of the State Department of Agrieul-
ture, which he first made public a few
days ago. The department, he said,
should be purely administrative. The
college should carry its work to the
farmers and workers of the State. He
spoke of the relation of the college to
the farmers as marketers and to the
engineers who build the roads so that
the farmers can carry their products to
the markets. Every taxpayer of Penn
sylvania, he said, ought to have a di-
rect share in State College.
The amount of transportation to be
asked for this year by the college was
left to committee, with President
Sparks as chairman. The money will
be for buildings, equipment and main
tenance. Professor Jackson s resigna.
tion as dean of the school of engineer
ing was accepted.
The following officers of the board of
trustees were chosen for the ensuing
year: President, H. Walton Mitchell

urer D. X. Peet, State College.
