those who are most active in the
arrangements for this fight,
but no one is willing to go on record

prletors have told me that they are
personally putting up the guarantee

with wilfully ignoring the law, but
we are contending that it is n clear
violation of law. And as such, are
we not justified in assuming that

A resolution asking the Philadel-
ph!a & Reading Railway Company
to extend its Northeast Pennsylvania
line from New Hope across the

association to fight the Pennsylvania

lieved that such an extension would
make Of this city an important
junction point and afford such de-
sirable shipping pfacilities that a
number of industries could be per-
suaded to locate here.

came up for discussion, and e resolu-
ton was sent to the city council
asking for its immediate removal.
