DR. Hibben Who Will Speak

Preparedness Booster

DR.. John Grier Iibben, president of
Princeton University, who will ad-
dress a membership luncheon meeting
of the Harrisburg Chamber of Com
merce at noon at the Board of Trade
Hall, Friday, is one of the foremost
advocates of preparedness.
He is taking much interest in the
formation of military units in schools
and colleges, and was personally re-
sponsible for the formation of q stu
dent regiment at Princeton. He was
instrumental in securing the services
of Captain Hintzleman of the regular
army as instructor in military tactics
DIR. Hibben personally announced the
assignment of the officer to Princeton
and asked for recruits. Eight hundred
and ninety responded to his first call.
DR.. Hibben's talks on preparedness
are widely quoted and he has, prom
ised to summarize some of his most
recent speeches on this subject in
Fridays talk.
Former Chambersburg Pastor
DR.. Hibben was graduated from
Princeton in 1882 and later from the
Seminary. For n number of years
he was pastor of the Failing Spring
Presbyterian Church in Chambers
burg, and in 1890 was elected to the
faculty of Princeton University. While
there he taught psychology, logic and
philosophy. In 1911 he succeeded

WAR RISK RATES
ARE INCREASED
Jumped Four Per Cent. Despite
Added Protection Against
German U-Boats
BY ASsocfated Press

New York, March THE steam
ship Carmania, of the Cunard line,
which arrived last night from Liver
pool, is equipped with the best sub
marine defenses carried by any mer-
chant vessel that has reached this
port. The Carmania is the first ship
here to show the smoke screen ap-
paratus recently invented by the Brit
ish admiralty. In addition. to this
device she carries a naval 6-inch gun
with a range of eight miles.
Scarcity of tonnage and the uncer-
tainties of the submarine situation
caused an increase in freight and in
surance rates to-day.
According to Rear Admiral Brad
ley A. Fiske, L. S. N, retired, the sea-
going commerce of the United States
can hope for no real protection by
arming merchantmen. The primary
defense effort, he told the trustees
of the American Defense Society at
dinner yesterday, should seek de-
velopment of the power of the United
States on the sea. Officers of the
United States navy, Admiral Fiske
said, were a unit in favor of arming
merchantmen, but it must be re-
membered that submarines operating
on the surface were more than a
match for merchant ships.
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1917-03-07

questions to be taken up in connection
with municipal operation of the work.
If municipal collections are ap-
proved, the city should be prepared
next February to take over all the
work. The present contract with the
Pennsylvania Reduction Company eX-
pires then, and our experience has
shown that about the only solution to
the question will be to have the city
take charge.
This will mean elimination of the
present plant, which is admitted a
nuisance, at least during the summer.
Erection of an incineration plant will
do away with this.
Survey Is Needed
Although we have received no ap-
proximate estimate, / do not believe
the cost of municipal collections will
be so much greater than by private
contract for the work. While l be-
lieve the present company is losing
money because of the increasing cost
of operation, that is no reason why
thousands of people all over the city
should suffer.
"By careful study of our needs it
should not be a difficult matter to
arrange short routes for the men,
provide auto trucks, and have general
satisfaction with no mid-winter tie
ups like the one just experienced.
"A survey will be needed, however,
to tell which system will be best.
When the city. if it is finally agreed
to, takes over the collection work
there must be no further trouble be-
cause of ignorance of conditions and
how to meet them" Commissioner
Gross concluded.

from the station at short intervals
since that time. Several times he has
fallen asleep on a seat in the waiting
room. His slumbers were short. To-
day he told Interpreter Goldberg that
he was tired and hungry. Arrange
ments were made to have the wire

LABOR CAMP PLAN
Is DISCUSSED
Prominent Contractors and
Railroad Men Meet With the
State Board Today

Representatives of railroad and con-
struction companies maintaining tenn
porary camps for the housing of la
borers, are to-day attending a hear
ing conducted by the State Industrial
Board in the Engineers Club, for the
purpose of prescribing minimum
standards of sanitation for all such
labor camps and accommodations and
temporary quarters.
This action is being taken by the
industrial board under the act of as
sembly of June Z, 1915, providing that
such camps be inspected at the di-
rection of the Commissioner of Labor
and Industry. The inspections are
made through the Bureau of Employ
meht of the Department of Labor and
Industry.
Commissioner John Price Jackson,
chairman of the board, announced last
night that the board had ruled that
employers must supply approved
safety goggles or helmets to all en-
ployes engaged in specified operations
and that employees must wear the gog-
giles or helmets while engaged in any
of these operations. The penalty for
violation of the ruling, by either en-
ployer or employe, constitutes q mis-
meanor punishable by fine of not more
than one hundred dollars or imprison-
ment of not more than one month, or
both.
This action was taken by the indus
trial board following reports that dur
ing single months in 1915 accident re-
ports of more than two thousand eye
injuries had been received by work.
ers, many of which caused partial or
total blindness. These rulings are pre-
liminary to u safety code on eye pro-
lection for all industrial operations to

dustrial board. The members of the
board participating in to-days action
were Chairman John Price Jackson,
Mrs. Samuel Semple, Otto 7. Mallery,
William Young and DIR. A. l.. Carver.
Whether minors under eighteen may
be employed in wholesale liquor es-
adjustments is a question that will
be considered by the board at d pub
lie hearing to be held at Pittsburgh at
q date not determined. The child
labor act of 1915 prohibits employ
ment of minors in retail liquor estab-
lishmentS and further specifies that

A ruling was also made that no boil
ers shall be admitted into Pennsylva-
MIA after January 1, 1918, which do
not conform to the Pennsylvania boil
er code. This time limit was allowed
to admit boilers contracted for prior
to June /, 1916, and will not permit
the shipment of secondhand boilers
into this State.
