Olmsted and Stamm Now
Olmsted, Snyder & Miller,
but No Change in Firm

Olmsted and Stamm have sent
out announcements of change in the
name of the firm to Olmsted, Snyder &
Miller. There is no change in the
personnel of the firm, the members
thereof being w. s. Snyder, c. B. Mil
ler j. T. Olmsted and j. w. Milhouse.
The business of this firm has had a
continuous existence for about forty
years, during which time it has had
occasion to try out before the Dau-
phin county court and the Supreme
Court of Pennsylvania, as well as the
supreme Court of the United States,
almost every possible question dealing
with State taxes. and has made more
tax law through the decisions of the
courts than any other lawyer or firm
of lawyers in the State of Pennsylvania
There has been practically no import
ant question of State taxation decided
during the last thirty-five years in
which the members of this firm have
not played an active part. One of the
more recent important tax cases in
which this firm has been interested was
that in which the anthracite coal tax
imposed by the act of 1913 was de-
clared unconstitutional.
William s. Snyder, who has for many
years been connected with the firm of
Olmsted & Stamm. after the death of
Mr.. Olmsted assumed charge of the
trial of cases before the various
courts.
c. b. Miller, prior to his entrance
into the firm some years ago, was
corporation clerk in the office of the
Secretary of the Commonwealth, where
his experience for over fifteen years
gave to him an intimate knowledge of
the principles of corporation law, and
since the creation of the Public Ser
vice Commission he has made questions
relating to public service companies
as administered by the public service
company law a speciality.
John It. Olmsted, who is the referee
in bankruptcy for the counties of Dau-
phin and Perry, is an expert on bank
ruptcy law.
James w. Milhouse has made q spe-
cialty of the preparations of corpora
tion tax reports and accounting.

ANXIOUS TO DODGE
AN EXTRA SESSION
Congress Will Pass Important
Bills and Endeavor to
Sidetrack Others

Washington, ID. c., Jan. How to
avoid an extra session after March
Is perturbing congress at the pres
ent time.
Neither party desires an extra ses-
sion and the administration is as
suredly of the same mind. Despite
the pressure of legislation, there will
be very effort to push through the
most important bills, with a skillful
sidestepping of the rest.
Peace possibilities in Europe this
spring or summer becomes the de-
batable feature of the necessity of
having congress on the job. Unto
ward conditions liable to spring up
&c any time, in event that peace is
delayed, form the basis of all discus
SONS as to whether when the pres
ent session is concluded there will be
any call for a reconvening with the
new membership in their seats to
handle matters.
There is feeling with some men,
bers that the Presidents overtures,
even If not productive of immediate
results, will have paved the way to-
ward something that will eventuate in
good.
But others hold that this will only
bring into relief the desirability of a
more careful consideration of prob
lens of urgent domestic concern.
NhohJ VI IilC ltiluICS Vi llc duHllil-
istrative program on internal affairs
have scarcely been touched upon.
Tie whole question of how to OBJ
tain revenues for running the govern
ment is still ahead, and thus far lit
tie or nothing has been done except
to point to the coming deficit and ask
how it is tc be met.
The President is on record as desir-
ing an adjustment of the railway sit
nation. with regard tO which there
has scarcely been a beginning. Even
though congress is willing to daily
with the situation, the labor leaders
are prepared to make themselves
heard. 1t is known that they are not
satisfied with certain features of rail-
way legislation which the President
has advocated, and. they will move on
these features are forced or should
congress attempt to leave matters as
they are.
The railroad problem is the most
pressing issue, from the standpoint of
most congressman. The deficit can
take care of itself after a fashion,
through a resort to the issue of PAN
anna bonds and some slight additions
to internal taxes. This will tide over
flcit can be handled by the next con-
gress.
The only further perplexity is the
controlling elements of the coming
house. 1t is recognized that it will not
be as easily handled as the one now
in being. But this only means that
as much must be done as possible be-
tween now and March 4.
An extra session would merely
precipitate the fight that can be de-
layed somo time longer, after which
the country will see what it will see.

This Explains Why White
Men Marry Indian Maids

Springfield. Mass, Jan. 8. The
Rev. C. L. Hall, of North Dakota. for
forty years a missionary on the Fort
Berthold reservation. declared in an
address before the American Mission
ary Association that the Indian and
white races will be completely merged
through intermarriage within the next
fifty years.
Despite the fact that the Indian
birth rate is rising and the death rate
is falling, 1 believe that the Indian
race will have disappeared fifty years
from now" he said. ''Intermarriage
between whites and reds is rapidly in
creasing The only Objectionable fea-
ture lies in the fact that many whites
are marrying Indians to obtain their
shares of tribal wealth. But this. too,

Soldier (whose life he saved) the close

have even the slightest trace of hair
on any part of their body except that
on their head. l used it and in few
