HOUSE GETS DOWN
TOTS HARD WORK
Does More in One Day Than
in Any Other Three of
Session

The House o; Representatives did
more work yesterday than on any
three days of the session, passing over
seventy-five bills finally and being in
session over four hours. In addition
eleven committee meetings were held.
At the late afternoon session yes
terday not enough members turned
up to pass many bills and after fif-
teen-minute session adjournment was
taken until o'clock this morning.
A bill authorizing first class cities
to make appropriations for support of
destitute families of persons sentenced
to imprisonment was introduced by
Mr.. Stern at the late afternoon ses-
sion. The city council is to designate
the branch of government to adminis-
ter the funds and to arrange for in
vestigation.
Mr.. Dithrich, Allegheny, introduced
bill providing for a system of NUM-
cipal liens in boroughs and Mr. Lohr.

COMMISSION TO
PROBE BUDGETS
Wants TO Know About Big In
crease in Appropriations
Now Demanded

Members of the State Economy and
Efficiency Commission will call heads
of department of the State government
before them to ask why it is necessary
to ask S65,00O,000 for conduct of the
various agencies of the State when
only $40,0O0,00O was voted two years
ago.
The commission was surprised at
the amount of money asked by the
department heads when Solicitor Nc
Dewitt asked for estimates for the bud
get which it is proposed to frame un-
der the Senate resolution and will in
quire. These hearings will be held dur
ing the recess and the chairman of the
appropriation committee will sit with
the commission, of which the Cover
nor is chairman.
There is q disposition among legis-
lators to cut down estimates to con-
duct some departments of the gov
ernment pretty vigorously and there
may be lively sessions when explain
ations are asked. The Department of
Agriculture may have trouble getting
by with some of the new ideas for
which it wants money and there is Il
disposition to demand to be shown
what the new tree inspection and dairy
inspection will cost and how many
jobs it will add to the pay roll.

RAISE QUESTION
ON CONSTITUTION
Compensation Board Rules on
Exemption of Agricultural
Employees

The State Workmen's Compensation
act in an opinion by Chairman Mackey
to-day dismisses an appeal from the
decision of Referee Jacob Snyder, of
the Altoona district refusing compen-
sation to Charles L. Shaffer, who was
engaged in agricultural work. The
referee held that he was exempted un-
der the supplemental act and the
claimant appealed, frankly stating that
he did so to raise the question of the
constitutionality of the exemption.
A bill is pending in the House to
repeal the exempting acta the chair
man says that it is not within the pro-
vince of the board to determine a
question of constitutionality. The de-
cision says that in appeals in other
States the constitutionality of a SINH
lar exemption has been upheld. Mr..
Mackey gives a long list of decisions
sustaining the legality of such acts
which are held not to infringe any
rights. The exceptions are claimed
to make the law vulnerable as special
legislation. 1t can no longer be neces-
sary to cite authorities in support of
the power Of the Legislature to make
different laws for different classes of
persons provided the classification be
based upon some rational ground of
differentiation" says the chairman.
Mr.. Mackey has also dismissed the
appeal in the cases of Daprities VS..
Newman, Philadelphia, and Johnson
VS.. Pennsylvania Coal and Coke Co,
Patton.

Columbia, Pa, March 1.-Motorizing

here to increase the efficiency of that
branch of the public service, and steps
already have been taken by one of TIE
fire companies to acquire a motor fire.

Keystone, has a motor chemical engine
and it is claimed that with the entire

more efficiency would be acquired. Re
cent big fires in the town demonstrated
that more speed would add to the work

HOW TO GET STRONG
\ Simple Remedy.

Whatever the cause, we want TO
say to every person who needs siren
9Th, you need Vinol as it is the most
efficient strength creator we have in
our store. Here is proof from Dor
chester, Mass. =
Il don't know what We would do
without Vinol in our family. | was
weak, nervous and rundown as the
result of an operation, and Finof re-
stored my strength. Then Grand
mother had nervous breakdown,
and Vinol built her up and restored
her health and strength after every
thing else had failed. We have used
Vinol for 13 years in our family, and
would not be without it in the
house." Myrtle L. Healy, Dorches-
ter, Mass.
We believe in Vinol because we
know it is a great strength creator,
due to the beef and cod liver pep
tones, iron and manganese pepto-

we always return the purchase mo-

In a. case Of extreme interest to the

ruled the motion of Armour & Co. to
dismiss a compensation claim upon
the grounds that the big packing
company had refused to accept or
subject itself to the provisions of The

ton act
The refusal to entertain the motion
carries with it an award to Mrs.
Magdeline Kinigonis Of Stamford OF
So compensation per week for peri
cd of 312 weeks with statutory burial
expenses.
The crux Of the decision rests upon
the fact tina tan employer Of labor, to
successfully carry out his design to
refuse to be bound by the Connecticut
act, must not only inform the state
authorities, but mus. also notify every
employe Of that intention.
Evidence was submitted to show

Alleges Conspiracy
to Make Him Dispose
of Rivercliff Stock

Alleging conspiracy to make him
sell his stock in the Rivercliff Realty
Co. of Milford, Alfred Halves Of this
city, has brought suit in the superior
court against Frederick B. Robins
and ). E. Hulsizer of this city for
$4,000. The action is returnable to
the April term. Five shares of Xiv
ercliff stock owned by Hulsizer and
116 owned by Robins have been at
tached.
Halves said he was induced to buy
$1,000 worth of stock in March, 1915,
by the defendants. He learned the
company was capitalized at 81 10000
and stock to the amount Of $4,000
had been issued. Halves claims TIE
defendants later organized othe-'
companies such as the Rivercliff De-
velopment CO. and the Madison Real
ty Co. in which he had no stock.
It is alleged that the defendants
without authority of the directors is
sued $4,000 worth Of Rivercliff stock
to Robins, loaned money to him and
paid his expenses. All this was a
conspiracy, Howes says, to force him
to sell his stock. The Riveru,iff prop
erty is situated in Milford on the east
bank of the Housatonic river.
