the bill to enable the State Game

servation to invest not over 5O,OOO

ment. Taxes are to be paid on the
same plan as those paid on State

Wherever an American wanders

SLIM CALENDARS
FOR LAST WEEK
Both Branches of Legislature
Are Well Up on Their
Final Work

Both branches of the Legislature
VIII meet tonight for the final
Monday night meeting of the ses-
sion of 1919, and with every pros
pect of being able to conclude the
biennial assembly on Thursday as
planned. There are less than 125
bills on the calendars and while
there will be some legislative fire.
works over certain bills the men,
bers have the close of their long
series of sittings in sight.
Every prospect is that the 123rd
regular session will adjourn Thurs
day afternoon. 1t has been in prac-
tically continuous session since jan
uary 20. 1t met for organization
on January 7, but recessed until the
twentieth and has met weekly since
barring ten days recess in April.
The last two weeks sessions have
been held on four days each week.
The length of the session has been
due largely to the Philadelphia bills
and to consideration of appropria
tion, revenue, educational and SINH
lar bills. The date fixed for ad-
journment is two days earlier than
the close of the session of 1917.
Other late June sessions in recent
years have been 1901 and 1913.
Close to 800 of the bills passed this
session have become laws ALREADY
and there are many bills upon
which the Governor will act in the
thirty days allowed him after the
! general assembly adjourns. Over
1000 bills have been presented in
each House.
Interest in the closing week will
center in ratification of the woman
suffrage amendment which is sched-
uled to pass the House finally Tues
day; Compensation amendments,
which are to be debated in the
House finally tonight; the anti
sedition and telephone merger bills,
defeated in the House and which
1t is expected attempts to reconsid-
er will be made tonight; Depart
ment of Conservation bill, in a
House committee; and the teachers
salary and judges salary increase
bills. Both of the latter measures
will face fights in the House. In the
Senate an effort will be made to
revive the bill authorizing the Au-
ditor General to name mercantile
appraisers.
The Senate has less than a dozen
of its own bills to pass on to the
House and the House has about the
same number of it's measures to
transmit to the upper branch. The
House has fifteen appropriation bills
to dispose of.
The Senate Law and Order Com
mittee will give hearing this eve
ming on the Ramsey bill establish
ing any beverage containing more
than two and half per cent of
alcohol as an intoXicant. There will
also be a few hearings by House
committees.

UNCLE SAM PAYING HIS DEBTS
Governments Credit Standing High,
Because OF Rapidly of Payment OF

Creditor Nation.

II you were asked to lend money to
private citizen you would ask /:
"What are this mans prospects? Is
his business showing a satisfactory
growth? Is he paying off his debts
and piling up a surplus?'
When you are asked to lend your
money to Uncle Sam you can safely
ask the same questions. The Ameri-
can government soon win ask for an
other great loan Therefore, now is
the time to satisfy yourself that Uncle
Sam will be an Al debtor.
The first thing that win impress
you. when you come TO investigate the
old gentleman's credit standing, is the
rapidity with which he has been pay
ing off his debts and becoming himself
a creditor In 1914, when the war
broke out, the nation owed four billion
dollars $4,000, 000) abroad and
had TO pay interest on that amount
every year.
Now all but about one-fourth of this
big debt has been paid of, and the
government of the United States has
lent abroad a total of ten billion dol
lars $4,000 100000 Instead of pay
ing interest TO Europe today, Uncle
Sam is now in position to ask and
receive from Europe a total Of at least
five hundred million dollars ($500o00,-
OO0) year in interest That sum from
across the water each year will pay
more than half the interest the govern
ment WIN owe to it's people on all the
