Police Call Attention
to Necessity of Observing
New Traffic Regulations

Vehicles approaching to the right
of any driver shall at all times have
priority to proceed.
This point OF the city traffic laws,
While incorporated in the city ordl-
nances for considerable period of
time, is not generally known to auto
moblllsts fthe city. Its import
ance was emphasized this morning
by Captain Thompson, of the city
police force. 2.
This rule has now likewise become
State provision. Captain Thomp-
son to-day called attention to the
fact that the State Legislature, at
its recent sessions, put in the State
statutes this provision which has
long been embodied in the city ordi-
nanCeS.
The city ordinance says in part:
and at intersections the vehicle ap-
preaching to the right of any driver
or operator shall have priority to
proceed"
This does not mean, Captain
Thompson says, that the driver to
the right shall have the privilege to
speed ahead at street intersections
without regard to other motorists.
1t does mean, he explains, that when
two vehicles arrive at the inter-
section at approximately the same
time, that the driver to the right
shall be given the right of proceed
ing first

There was only one amendment 1t

clares that the question of what
part, If any, the forces of Canada
shall take in any war, actual OF

Workingmen Strike While
Police Await Opportunity
to Move Into Quarters

A strike will further hold back
the entrance of the several divisions
of the police department into their
new headquarters in the old Eager
school building.
Practically the entire force OF
workmen are now out on strike.
Late yesterday the forces of plumb
ers, paperhangers and carpenters
refused to continue work because of
the employment by plumbing con-
tractor of one non-union workman.
Efforts were at first made to have
the contractor call off the one nom
union workman. No definite results
were secured and the workmen
picked up their tools and left at
various times yesterday. To-day
electricians only are working about
the building.
Just how long the work will he
delayed no person about police sta
tion was willing to say to-day. It
had been fully expected to have the
entire department in their new
headquarters by September is, but
this hope was abandoned even pc
fore the strike. The police report
system and the fire alarm system
have already been transferred to the
new headquarters.

New Orleans, La, Sept. 12.-with
it's center about 200 miles south of
Pensacola, Fla, the gulf hurricane,
which swept the Florida Keys with
considerable damage to property in
the vicinity of Key West and great
loss to shipping, was sweeping north
westward early to-day toward the
Texas coast. The weather bureau
last night issued storm warnings for
the eastern coast of Texas from Port
Arthur to Velasco.
Interruption of all communication
in the vicinity of the hurricanes
path made it impossible for weather
bureau officials to locate the storm
center exactly or to estimate the
speed at which it was moving.
Dispatches from Tampa said the
highest tides recorded along that
section of the gulf coast since 1884
overflowed a number of low-lying
islands yesterday, but beyond the
destruction of bath houses at some
resorts and the washing away of
paved roadway at the beaches, the
damage was slight.

Boston, Sept. 12.-With the threat

nights of the strike was reassur-

Men Are Descrters
The Government and laws of the
cannot be arbitrated. This declara-
tion from the State House to-day
was in response to an incessant pub
lie demand to know the attitude of
the State toward the striking police
men and suggests of compromise.
THE men are deserters," said
Governor Coolidge. This is not a
strike. These men were public Of
f1cials. We cannot think of arbi-
trating the Government or the form
of law. There can be no opportun-
ity for any compromise in respect
to either. My personal opinion is
that they would not be taken back
if they yield, to my view"
The Governor added, however,
that his only authority in this matter
was over the Police Commissioner,
who administered the deartment.
Suggestions of Compromise
In the last twenty-four hours
there have been suggestions of COM
promise beginning with the state
ment that if allowed to affiliate with
the American Federation of Labor
the policemen would never be called
out on strike in sympathy with other
union organizations. Labor leaders

HARD WORK IF
CITY IS TOSAVE
DAYLIGHT HOUR
More Men Needed to Circulate
Petitions to Be Presented
to Commissioners

Harrisburg may not have the ex-
ira hour of sunshine next summer
although more than rs per cent. of
the workingmen and women of the
city greatly favor the idea.
This was the opinion expressed to-
day by the men who have been
working hard trying to line up public
sentiment into some sort of shape
for presentation to City Council.
Lethargy on the part OF many of the
IDEAS warmest supporters was said
to be responsible.
Petitions signed by men who for
two years have been accustomed to
getting out into the daylight for sew
eral hours of fishing, golfing, base
pail and gardening are coming in.
Every man who has circulated q pe-
tltlon reports that nearly ninety per
cent. or all persons approached have
been more than willing to attach
their names to the petitions.
The trouble is. however. to find
some one willing to take an hour
Ior the work. An appeal is being

workingmen favor daylight saving
may be cited two incidents. EverY
man in the big composing room of
the Telegraph signed the petition
as quickly as they could attach their
names. In the Steelton general Of
flee of the Bethlehem Steel COMPANY
only three of 200 men did not want
the hour of sunshine. Other plants
report the same ratio.
Members of City Council, the COM
mlttee reports, are willing to COM

for five summer months next vear
but do not want to go ahead If its
supporters are not willing to produce
evidence that the majority of Har-
risburgers is for it.
