KREIDER SCORES
DEMOCRATIC PORK
Tells Congress How Republic
cans Could Meet Expenses
Without "War" Taxes

Washington. D. c.. Sept 6.-Speak-
ing on the antidumping clause of the
Webb bill before Congress yesterday,
Congressman Krelder, of Pennsyl-
vania, delivered himself of one of the
most scathing denunciations of Demo-
cratic mismanagement heard on the
floor of the House in months. Dis
cussing the pork barrel appropriation
OF the Democrats and their levying dI
extraordinary taxes to cover them un-
der the guise of taking care of pre-
paredness expenditures, Mr.. Kreider
said:
Il will show that if the Republicans
were in power the revenues of the gov
ernment under existing law would be
ample to provide for all the prepared
ness measures voted for by us. The
truth is, that the money that you pro-
pose to raise by imposing these taxes
| is needed
large portion of the revenue of the
government by wasteful. needless, and
eXtravagant appropriations.
Second. Because you repealed the
Payne tariff law and substituted
therefor the Underwood bill. which
| IilS proven an absolute failure as
revenue producer, and not, as you say,
to make up the deficit caused by the
preparedness program demanded by
the people.
In the Sixty-third Congress you did
the same thing; you needlessly squan-
dered the revenue of the government
to the extent of over 500, 900, 900 and
then levied, over our most emphatic
protest, so-called war. tax intended
to raise the money thus taken from
the treasury. You at that time prom
ised to repeal this war tax in a year,
but instead of repeating it you now
come with another tax bill intended to
raise about $500, 900, 000--to be exact,
$197 00,000-and then boldly chal-
lenge us, asking what we would have
done or do were we in power"
Mr.. kreider then went on at length
to show how under Republican laws,
ample revenues for all purposes could
nave been raised without increased
taxation.

Lady Moose Plan
Fight in Court on
Dissolution Inquiry

In answering the request of Mrs.
Lillian Rodkey and Mrs! Dollie Rea,
officers of Harrisburg Circle, No. S5,
Women's Loyal Moose Circle, for dis
solution of the organization by the
Dauphin county courts, Mrs. Jennie
Holstein, Mrs. Anna NJ. Oberholtzer
and Mrs. Alice Meyer, trustees, declare
that the whole proceeding is backed
by only few and in fact not enough
members to be termed a minority to
wreck the said circle for their own
material gain"
The answer was filed this morning
BY Robert Sucker as counsel for the
trustees. September Is has been fixed
for the dissolution hearing.
The answer declares that the pro-
ceedings which authorized the request
for dissolution were only attended by
a few members who the secretary
could get together for the purpose,
whereas there are from $50 to 800
members in the circle. About S4O0 to
$500 is held by the treasurer, accord
ing to the answer. Objection, there
fore, is raised to the dissolution, the
trustees contending that the circle is
solvent and is admirably carrying out
its charter requirements.

ON THE WORD OF A KING

New Hampshire and Vermont are
engaged in litigation in the United
States courts to determine the exact
location of the boundary between the
states. In 1864, by decree of the Eng
lish king, the western boundary of
New Hampshire was designated as the
west bank of the Connecticut river and
this boundary was recognized by YER
mont. In late years industrial es-
Establishments have been erected on
made land adjoining the former west
bank of the river, and the present pro-
ceeding is the result of the attempts Of
both states to levy taxes on this newly
created property. - The Christian

Wilson Sends $500 to
Shadow Lawn Charities
By Associated Press

Long Branch, n. J., Sept. 6. - Con-
gresham Thomas ]. Scully announced
to-day the receipt of a check for $4,000
from President Wilson. The money is
to be divided among Monmouth coun-
ty hospitals in accordance with the
Presidents agreement in accepting
Shadow Lawn as his summer home.
When a committee of Monmouth
county citizens, headed by Congress
man Scully made arrangements for the
engagement of Shadow Lawn, Colonel

quired to charity and refused the ten
der of the place under any other con-
ditions.
