GOVERNMENT
is IN DANGER
Close Connection With Business Dur
Ing War May Tend to
Debauch and to
Corrupt.

limited Press Leased Wire Service. ]
ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Dec g.
Warning that the close connection
between the government and business
brought about by the war may tend
to debauch and to corrupt the gov
eminent" was given by Paul M. War
burg, former vice governor of the
federal reserve board, in a
speech before the United States
chamber of commerce war service
committee here today. He urged that
proper safeguards be thrown about
the government responsibility and in
fiuence in business to avoid this peril.
ut is this danger we are facing
at the moment of our proudest
triumph" Warburg added. at must
be our serious concern that ma
tional effort born in idealism, should
not bear the seeds of national de-
cline. The reconstruction period
places us face to face with this prob
lem and it is during this period that
thoughts will have to be developed
leading to a solution entirely fair to
the people,
Reconstruction legislation. War
burg declared, must be of the kind
which will provide safety for the
future political life. In this connec-
ton he cited as the proper formula
for such legislation laws (which will
be to the railroads what the federal
reserve act is to banks"
Solution of the railroad problem,
he argued. would be national con-
trfbution of the highest order.
Among financial reconstruction
plans proposed by Warburg Is pro-
vision for conversion OF the war
finance corporation into peace
finance corporation with broadened
powers and the right to enter the
foreign field of business in aiding
American business. 1t should be per
mitted, Warburg believed, to issue its
own obligations, against foreign
securities acquired. It should have
entire freedom from matters of state
Membership on the corporation board,
Warburg said, should be designated.

one each by various department
heads. This would insure that COM
petent, able and efficient men be
named, he said
Warburg said he believed an early
withdrawal Of the hand of the gov
eminent from its war activities in
business was advisable and possible.
Especially Is this true regarding the
regulation Of production and prices.
he pointed out. Prompt cancellation
of contracts and prompt liquidation
of Indebtedness incurred through con-
tractural obligations will go far to
ease the general situation, he held,
urging that "the slate should be
cleared as soon as possible while new
business knocks at our DOORS"
Prospects of a division of the title
financial capital between the
United States and England indicated
that hereafter no single nation will
be absolutely In control. He pointed
to these two nations as two pillars
supporting great institution" If
either unloaded its burden, its col
laborator would collapse under the
load, he asserted.

BIG SEARCH
FOR A FIRE
Public Library Building Inspected
All Over and Then Boards
Seen Blazing Across


A big hunt for fire finally located
it in couple OF small boards on top
of chimney, last evening.
The alarm gave the public library
as the location, and when the fire
men arrived there the smell OF burn
ing wood was very strong. The H.
brary building was closed and locked
and the firemen clambered up the
fire escape of the Grand hotel and
across the roof and thus gained &C
cess to the library.
Then they saw the boards burning
on top the chimney across Third
street, safely on the bricks above the
roof. No damage was done.
1t lis supposed that the boards were
placed there last spring to keep
swallows out of the chimney and
were not removed when fire was
started in the furnace.
