NOT A PAPER ROAD"

TN Philadelphia about two months
ago western motorist was start
ing homeward.
Which way are you going?" asked
his companion. "Will you travel the
Lincoln or the William Penn High
way?"
The William PENN" calculated the
motorist. That's only paper road"
But that, as they say in the classics,
was two months ago. The William
Penn Highway is not a paper road. 1t
is a real highway serviceable high
way. The Telegraph has often pre-
dicted, and it predicts once more, that
in an incredibly short time the Will
liam Penn will be complete in its en-
tirety.
In recent issue the Johnstown
Leader talked knowingly of the new
east-west road. It said:
Between Millerstown and cresson
there are ITO miles Of permanent
roads smoother than most of our
stretch of four miles between Mill
Creek and Huntingdon, and the
unimproved portion of the route
from Youngstown TO ,Ebensburg. the
William Penn Highway is excel
lent from Johnstown to Harrisburg
and fairly good from Pittsburgh to
Philadelphia. With the Johnstown
connection ready for the contrac-
tor and the State busy near Hunt
ingdon, the William Penn High
way will be virtually fact in a
report progress which is real. The
Harrisburg folks who visited
Johnstown Tuesday made the run
routed. in $50 minutes, averaging
over twenty-five miles an hour, al
though the schedule was for twenty
miles an hour and the run was not
speed contest. You can leave
Johnstown at sunrise and lunch in
Harrisburg without employing
maniac speed. Motor trucks carry
h6 eou6 an move eF fgo@ ahf aarrsbuTPg Sa SUPPLIES fo
Johnstown between dawn and sun
set One thing that shows we are
of an optimistic disposition is our
hope that by the time the William
Penn is as nearly perfect as 1t can
be made our automobilists will
have learned to understand. first,
| that the road was not built for
their exclusive use. and second
| that tt was never designed to be a
speedway,
Likewise and Notwithstanding, so t.
speak. Governor Brumbaugh is seeing
to 1t that there is a connecting link
between the William Penn and the
Lincoln highways along the Raystowr
branch, between Huntingdon and
Everett, which will eliminate the
mountainous section of the Lineolr
Highway between Chambersburg and
Everett.

PROPOSED PEACE COMMISSION.

One of the curious oshoots of the preparedness dis
cussion is BILL introduced in the house by Charles Ben
nett Smith, of New York, which provides for the estab-
ishment OF peace commission. The ldea according to
explanatory circulars to have been fostered by the
Peace and Arbitration Society of Buffalo, branch of
the American Peace Society. It is proposed that the
president be empowered to appoint five persons mem
bers of the ''Peace Commission of the United States
whose terms shall expire with that of the chief executive
lit shall be the duty Of the commission ito aid in main
tanning harmonious relations between the United States
and among all the nations of the world Each commits
sonel would receive $4,000 year salary. Under cir
cstances could than 100000 be spent each year.
including items of travel clerk hire, etc 1t is further
provided that 'the commission shall study the of
armed conflict among nations and ways and means for
the prevention of war; The commissioners would be
qured to report to the president and congress
year and oftener in their discretion
Assuming that such commission would be constitu-
tonal--of which there may be doubt-the wisdom
Of establishing body Of this sort is not apparent 1t
is not likely that Mr. Smith measure will succeed What
is proposed is addition to the bureaucratic bodies in
Washington of which already have too many. 1T is
one thing for COMMISSION or bureau to investigate a
domestic subject and quite another to go outside the
country for its material 1t is bad enough to empower
such loosethnkng group the federal commission of
industrial relations to NEEDLE with domestic economic
subject thereby causing damage than good But it
is far serious undertaking to launch commission
for the special purpose Of looking after foreign rea
tons.
The president has been severely criticised by some
members Of congress for asking private information from
personal friends who have gone abroad But these nyes
tgatoS had official character governmental stand
ing. While Mr.. linds trip into Mexico for example,
might not have been followed by exceptionally beneficial
results did, far congress is concerned national
harm In the OF regularly constituted commission
reporting to congress and the president matters would
be entirely different OF course, much would depend
the character of the commissioners Doubtless the sup
porters Of the idea have thoroughly patriotic motive
Nevertheless such commission practicable this is
not the time for it. We already have enough agencies for
the accumulation the dissemination of facts And
foreign policy has place for such activity 1t belongs
in the hands of the president and CONGRESS.

Letters From the People
The Stevens Bill.

Evening Capital News: l wish to
call your attention to the misunder-
standing which seems to exist in the
mind of the consuming public that the
passage of the stevens bill will create
monopolies and subject the consumer to
other forms Of imposition.
Section A of this meritorious meas
ure, however, says that manufac-
turer shall not have any monopoly or
control Of the market for articles be-
longing to the same general class of
merchandise; nor shall q. manufacturer
be a party to any agreement, eombin-
alton or understanding with any COM
petitor in the production, manufacture
or sale of any similar merchandise in
regard to the price at which the same
shall be sold either to dealers at whole
sale or retail or to the public.
The questions involved in this leg
islatlon are moral as we'll as eco
nomie. They are. whether the public is
to be deceived BY cut-price bait
whether the small retailer is to be
crushed and the independent small
manufacturer is to be deprived of a
market for his honest wares.
The great benefit to the consumer
win accrue from competition in excel
lence between manufacturers who are
now inclined to cut quality in meeting
competition in price Every citizen
ought to take an interest in this legis-
lation and see that his congressman
supports the Stevens bill for the well
fare of his community and for the
sake of common honesty,
Very truly yours,

for the fun of 1t he induced her to be
member of a mob in one of the scenes

claimed to be one. His letter arrived
among dozens OF others and II breathed
love, castles and crowns. Miss Child
ers was skeptical. Real counts do not
see an actress on the screen and fall
so violently in love that they pen few
erish notes right then and there. So
Miss Childers hunted up the name Of
her royal admirer in the Almanach de
Gotha-and found the noble count
among the missing. That decided the
question. Miss Childers wrote a polite
little note thanking the count for his
proposal, but confessing that lots of
