between 10000 and $4,000, will be
taken at a conference to be held at
the Capitol next Wednesday at which
various agencies interested in the
care of children will be invited to
assist. Preliminary interchanges of
views have been under way for a
week and a meeting has been called
for the Capitol, by nr. B. Franklin
Roger, Acting Commissioners of
Health, after consultation with state
officials.
In a statement issued DR.. Roger
says that the matter is one which
calls for Immediate attention" Let
ters have been sent by him to the
folloying organizations urging that
they be represented at the confer
ence on Wednesday: The State De-
partment of Health, the Department
of Education of the Board of Edu-
cation, the Department of Labor and
Industry, Pennsylvania Council of
National Defense and Committee of
Public Safety, the Women's Commit

portant program of relief work will
be adopted. The tentative program
is comprehensive.

FISHER THANKS
LOAN WORKERS
Highway Leader of Indiana
County Says That State Will
Now Come Out of the Mud

The tremendous favorable vote
given the proposed constitutional
amendment which will permit the
state to borrow S50,000,000 for road
purposes is attributed by the Asso-
ciated Highways Organization of
Pennsylvania. which backed the prop
osition. to the fact that the state at
large has tired of unpermanent main
roads. Figures received by the as
sociated highways show the Yes
votes to have been nearly 100000
more than the Noes.
"The approval of the Amendment
by the voters of Pennsylvania is
complete evidence that the people of
this Commonwealth are progressive"
said Ex-senator John S. Fisher, Of
Indiana, president of the associated
highways. "The state is now enabled
to borrow money and build highways
on a wholesale scale"
Pennsylvania will have the best
highway system in America within
five years." was the declaration of
William Jennings, of Harrisburg,
treasurer of the associated highways.
Transportation facilities will be i'm
proved and there will be great i'm
provement in economic conditions"
DR.. P. T. Johnson. of Erie, vice.
president of the associated highways,
declared that the vote Tuesday plain
ly evidenced that Pennsylvanians
are tired of their many meandering
miles of mudways.
"The vote means that the people
have learned that good roads are an
economic necessity. Almost every
county in the state has reversed its
attitude of 1913, when the bond is
sue was defeated by 41,000 votes"
If the war is over before the legis-
lative sessions of 1919 end the con-
stitutional amendment providing that
the state may borrow money will be
put through by the state Senate and

and high schol students. Drills were
resumed last night with a fair rep
resentation of men present and over
fifty notices of men that while en-
gagged on other matters last evening
they were interested in continuing
the Reserves. A number of men on
the inactive list have also asked
that the organization be kept up for
the present.
