Heavy rains throughout Virginia
were the cause of light receipts on the
commission market today. The
supply, though small. was equal to the
demand and Notwithstanding that poul-
try jumped slightly there were no indi-
cations of any startling changes in
prices this week. The market, gem
orally speaking. was in good condition.

To Tell of Constructive
Benevolence Work at
Annual Aids Meeting

Officers for the new year will be
elected. Encouragement of the constitu-
ton and bylaws will be authorized
and an interesting talk by r. NJ. Little,
secretary of the Philadelphia society
for organizing charity will be delivered
at the annual meeting Monday eve
ming at o'clock of the Associated Aid
societies. The meeting will be held
in the hall of the Public Library. Mr..
Little's talk will be on How to Make
Our Benevolences Constructive"
At a meeting of the board of man.
ayers yesterday Secretary Yates re-
ported that 149 cases had been
handled by the social service bureau
during December, A of which were
new, 50 old and IS of them Novem Der
cases. There were 179 office inter-
views, 143 examinations, and 35 con-
sultations; PIT visits were made by
social workers. The Harrisburg Bene-
VIOLENT Association gave relief for 35,
anti-tuberculosis fund 8, special fund
16, employment was obtained for 5.
In the children's bureau places for 18
children were found 80 visits were
made, and there were 120 office inter-
views and 274 calls relative to the
children were made by the social
workers.

Lynch and H. f. Bowman, it is un-

Gross, the present commissioner.
readily acquiesced, even though his
department would have reaped the
benefit.
Whether or not Mr.. Gross preferred
to let the fire question go over until
now-so that the new apparatus
would arrive in Harrisburg just
be most effective at the September
primaries-is a matter of conjecture,
the grumbling firemen declare.
Good Politics?
I'D call it mighty good politics in
a way" said one veteran fire fighter.
Just think these motorized ma
chimes will appear on. the streets
I've no doubt some sort of demon
stration' will be arranged-just about
the time campaign talk is in the air.
THE money will have been expend-
ed and the long-suffering fireman will
have resigned himself to taking what
he gets and he may forget about the
old engines on new tractors and the
fire commissioner will reap the re-
suits. But-the taxpayers and the
firemen, too, do not get their moneys
worth"
Short Sightedncss
In referring to the evident loss
which the city will sustain as a re-
suit of the shortsightedness of Coun-
ell, Mr.. Halbert pointed out that when
Fire Chief Kinder. Mr.. Taylor and
himself mapped out a tentative pro-
gram a year ago, provision for the
motorization of the department with
new machines had been considered
The tentative estimate at the time
totaled about $64, 400, although Fire
Chief Kinder at the time expressed
the belief that $4,000 would cover
the expenditure.
it was believed however, that the en-
tire equipment could be purchased for
not more than 100000.
That program included four trac-
tors, two new trucks, five mo-
tor-combinations and two motor
triple pumps of steamers. The esti-
mates as to cost were $4,000 apiece
for tho trucks, $4,000 each for the
tractors. $4,000 for the chemical
combinations and $500 for the en-
gines. These figures were based on
what the city paid at that time.
The Difference to the City
Mr.. Gross, according to his adver-
