Simplify the Primary.

The success Of the new direct pri-
mary law imperfect as it was, is
emphasized by the great vote cast
last week.
Now let It be perfected by the
representatives OF the people, not
nulfed by the politicians.
In Vermont, just as in every other
state, the politicians, when they saw
the people would have primary
law. threw just as many "wrenchcs"
into the cog wheels, as possible. They
saw to it that 1t was made expensive,
cumbersome, blind, etc, so that it
would prove unpopular.
It has survived all these obstacles
Now let it be simplhed.
How.
BY making the ballots smaller, us
ing no more paper than is absolutely
needed
BY making It easier for candidates
to get their names on the ballots.
by allowing the people to put any
mans name on the ballot without
his written assent. +. G. Fleetwood,
Esq. would have been named for
senator in the county but for that
clause in the law. Not that a first.
class man has not been nominated.
but the people wanted Fleetwood.
He refused his assent. He could not
have refused to serve had the people
put his name on the official ballot
and nominated him. No man could
refuse such q call to duty and service.
by having separate ballot for
county senators and for lieutenant
governor. These are the most inn
portant OF all and The people ought
to have a chance TO vote directly and
only for these. Fifteen men and the
lieutenant governor can defeat any
desired legislation. 1t ought not to
be possible Tor political manipulation

endurance. The Super-Six invention add
ed 80 per cent to our motors efficiency,
solely by reducing vbsalion. 1t reduced
motor friction almost TO nil
BY nearly endil g friction it has nearly
ended wear. And al these worlds records
are due mainly to that fact. The motor is

sonai visitation or by letter. champion their
cause with their Counciimen, or, more par
ttcularly. with the members Of the Finance
Committee, and their struggle for proper
recognition is won. No Councilman, how
ever powerful, would defy the wishes OF
his constituents. and II those constituents
declare their wish that tho firemen be pro-
vlded for, the vote on the pending RELIEF
ordinance, the 1remen feel, would be not
only overwhelming but unanimous. That
the public understanding OF the situation
may be made clear and complete citlsens,
both men and women, are invited TO visit
the FIRE stations, where every detail OF the
service and the conditions under which the
firemen labor and live will be explained
cheerfully.
Many organizations and civic bodies have
already done this, with the result that u
strong appeal for relief has Immediately
followed. II the public generally would
initiate the example of these organizations
and obtain personal acquaintance with the
facts. II n the belief Of the fremen that
there would not be found one resident OF
the city and no single member OF Councils
who would withhold his support and earnest
advocacy Of their plea.
LACK OF SUBSTITUTES
The cause Of the police Is somewhat diff
ferent. They. too. are asking more wages.
They are organized In this direction But
the police already enjoy many privileges
unknown to the firemen II a policeman IL
sick or off duty there is an adequate force
os substitutes to draw upon There is
not a single substitute In the Bureau Of
Fire. Comrades of the injured or sick man
must MI in and perform his task. leaving
the company shorthanded until the incapacl-
tated member Is able to return TO duty.
The list Of eligibles for the current year is
exhausted and many companies are con-
stantly working with less than their COM
plement of hose or ladder men.
The last company to be installed, Engine
No 5S, at Byberry. Ia being handled by six
men, and another company, No. 50, to DO
located within few weeks at Hunting Park
avenue and Schuyler street Nicetown, can
only be made UP by 'robbing' other COM
panles to provide enough fremen TO get It's
apparatus to FIRE and to start 1t in
service
The police, too, thanks to = previous ad-
ministration, are on a three-platoon basis,
so that no man on street duty has over
eight hours service out OF each twenty

three times that OF the policeman with the

In response to the vigorous campaign
h.,rr waged on behalf of tho flremen of
phlladelphia, direct appeals are being made
- rnan,bers of Councils. and especially to
/ tbe Finance Committee of that body, urging
mat Justice be done at the earliest possible
moment for a long overlooked and deserving
81 Of public servants. These efforts, In
rerson or by letter, base their claim upon
tha ground that better working conditions
for the firemen are in no sense an extrava-
rant use of the city finances, but simple
act OF reparation to a long maintained vio-
latlon on the part of the city of the laws
Of humanity and Justice
owners of real estate and operators in
property are among the stanchest advo-
Gates Of the flremen's cause. A petition
has been submitted to Chairman Gaftney,
Of the Finance Committee, which bears only
the signatures of men who are engaged in
the building and handling of realty These
individuals, in many instances, were op-
posed to any raise in the tax rate, but upon
the question of more pay and better hours
for the firemen they stand unitedly In favor
Of the pending ordinance. They take the
ground that $75 a month, or even the maxi
mum Of S91 now given to the hose and
ladder men, is utterly inadequate recon-.
penss for tho service required.
gURPLUS WOULD COVER EXPENSE
Some OF the court officers and other in
tended benehciaries under the 1917 budget
might well wait, they argue, better than
the hremen, who have patiently remained
IN the background these many years. The
estimated surplus for the coming year,
they point out, will not only provide means
to put the Bureau of Fire on a two-platoon
system. giving the firemen only twelve
hours day on duty, or twice the hours
demanded of court officer, but would leave
substantial margin for other Council
manic allotment
The hremen themselves are content to
wage their fight solely along the lines OF
dgnified appeal to the reasonable sense
ef the Finance Committee. Citizens gener-
ally. they feel assured, are convinced that
II $3.50 day is deemed proper pay for
m unskllled workman for eight hours
labor performed under conditions of secur-
lsy and safety, their request for an in
crease over the S2.46 they receive for
twenty-four hours continuous service, per-
formed often at risk OF life and limb and
confned to the saving of the lives and
property OF their fellow-citizens. Is shabby
return.
This latter point impressed with cleaT-
ness upon the individual members of the
Finance Committee. the fremen and their
supporters believe. will bring about prompt
and substantial relief The Mayor has ex-
pressed himself as unwilling to declare his
position toward the firemen until the re-
port Of the Standardization of salaries, now
under way. is submitted to him. The fire.
men are willing to abide by the findings of
this Investigation, which they say can only
emphasize the inadequacy of their remuner-
alton, whether compared with that OF other
municipal employees or with the average
pay Of fremen in other American cities.
Let the citizens OF Philadelphia, by per-
