$4,000 Appropriation
For Emergency Stands

Governor Sproul was to-ady inform
ed in an opinion by Emerson Collins,
Deputy Attorney General that the
100000 appropriation made to the
Emergency Works Commission. de-
signed to afford work in times of idle
ness or to meet any emergencies
" hich may arise, will not lapse at the
end of the appropriation period. The
general principle may be stated to
be that unless the act making the ap-
preparation is of such a nature that
it could not have been expected or in
tended, reasonably, that the sum ap-
propriated would be expended or its
expenditure actually contracted for
by the end of the two fiscal years sue
ceeding the meeting of the Legisla-
ture, the balance not expended or ac-
will be deemed to revert to the State
Treasury. There is, however, no in
flexible rule governing the matter
and when the legislative intent to the
contrary is apparent. the rule has no
application and the appropriation re-
mains available"
In opinions to Dr. Fl. II. Baish, sec
retary of the Public School Emplyes
Retirement Board. it is held thC<
teachers and others in the State Col
lege, Huntingdon Reformatory and
Scotland Soldiers Orphans school do
not come under the act. and Colonel
Edward Martin, State Commissioner
of Health, is Informed thta moneys
received from the War Risk Insurance
Bureau must go to the state Treasury
end not to the department funds.

them that the hundreds of persons who
are going to the Skylark will be kept
amused for the entire evening. There
are these things to consider: The dance.
the supper, the feature dancing and
singing, the orchestra, the medium who
reads fortunes and numerous other
things. And above all there is the fact
that all the money that is to be taken
in this afternoon and this evening is
absolutely clear for the Pure Milk So
ciety's summer fund; because friends
of Harrisburg babies have guaranteed
all expenses.
The final touches to the decorations
were being put on this morning and
early this afternoon. The bare interior
of the pavilion became fairy scene
under the slkillful hands of the artisans
and decorators Albert Kelsey, of Phil
adelphia, the prominent architect and

Governor Won't Riu
Out Phila. Registrars

I'VE have not had any rippers

out those fellows" said Governor
William C. Sproul to-day, when
asked about reports that he contem-
plated a big change in the personnel
of the board of registration commits
sioners for Philadelphia.
ut would not be consistent with
the talk of home rule to start rip
ping now" continued the Governor,
who remarked that he had heard
that he would be required by expira-
tion of terms to make some appoint
ments to the board. Since that
time he has learned that none of the
terms of the present commissioners
expire for a year. The Governor
declined to discuss what he would
do when the terms did expire. He
has reappointed only one, William

Governor Sproul Means
to Speed Up Legislation

Governor Sproul to-day reiterated
his belief that the troublesome things
are out of the way in the Philadet-
phia charter bill controversy. He
said that the size of conucil was be-
ing given much consideration and
that some matters connected with
Civic Service were to be finally dis
posed of. The Governor said that he
did not want to see restrictions such
as would not permit council to func-
tion properly. but declined to go into
details.
To callers the Governor said to-day
that he was getting very tired of the
continual charter discussion and that
he wanted to get tn Legislative work
moving more rapily. One friend he
he told he was sick and tired of the
protracted controversy and hoped
that there would soon be new char
ter which newspapers say is demand
ed, adding that the next election
would show what the people of Phil
adelphia thought about the matter.
