Some few will be compelled to close

With the exception OF the Steelton

none have taken action TO close plants
or parts of plants, according to the best
information available to-day
The situation at the Harrisburg Pipe

serious. There, all departments will
continue in full operation for the next
several days, but it is only a matter
of few days until they will be COM
PEELED to close unless additional supplies
are received, according to David L.

At the Central Iron and Steel Com

The coal and oil supplies are both low

port similar conditions
No restrictions on fuel have as yet
been received by the Harrisburg Light

TUBERCULOSIS IS
MENACING COUNTY
PHYSICIANS SAY
Urge Support of Red Cross
Christmas Seal Campaign
to Fight White Plague

That there is urgent need for in
creased antitubercuiosis activities in
the city and county to wipe out the
disease here DIR. c. r. Phillips, coun-
ty medical inspector, and DR.. j. NJ.
j. Raunick, city health officer, de-
clared to-day.
THE Tuberculosis Society of
Dauphin county has accomplished
splendid results in the last few years
and the program for work in 1920
indicates that the organization in
tends to increase its activity" DR..
Raunick said. This is absolutely
necessary if we desire to insure pub
lie health and wipe out all danger
from the white plague.
"To carry on their work next year
the county society will use funds
derived from the sale of Red Cross
Christmas seals in the city and coun-
ty. Everyone should buy and use
these seals. 1t shows that they are
back of the movement to wipe out
tuberculosis and each person who
buys seals makes an investment in
public health improvement work"
DIR. Phillips said that throughout
the more populous districts in the
county, particularly in the northern
and and in Steelton, Highspire and
Middlctown. there is much need for
active work in fighting tuberculosis.
Treatment of cases which have been
found, educational and preventive
measures are some of the things
which the society must do next year.
To finance this health work funds
are secured by selling Red Cross
Christmas seals.

Desire to Go Back

Pittsburgh, Dec. 5.-Reports that
many union coal miners of the Pitts
burgh district, on strike since No
vember 1, had expressed to their
employers a desire to return to work,
reached here to-day. Operators
viewed the situation with optimism,
but union leaders declared coal Dig
gers of the district were 100 per

Representatives of some operators
expressed the opinion that a num-
ber of mines would be reopeRed in

; ; dropped anchor here in 1853

Bringing lumber, tools, supplies
and mill equipment, the Schooner
Julius Pringle, under command of
Capt. w. c. Talbot, anchored and
left ten men at Port Gamble in
July, 1853. Proceeding to Seattle,
then Boosting but one saw mill, a
few homes and tents, the schooner
loaded the first cargo of lumber
from Puget Sound. This was the
beginning of the Puget Mill Com
pany, owned by Pope & Talbot of
San Francisco. Additional inn,
proved equipment and the buying
and improvement of another mill
at Port Ludlow, have enabled this
company to produce lumber that
now reaches China, Australia,
South America, Africa and Europe.
Always following a cash basis, this
company has never owed a dollar,
nor had a pay day. Every day is
pay lay for those employees who
want to draw money. Until re-
Gently most of the cargoes sold
moved in the company's own
boats. Alderwood Manor was or
iginated by these people. The
land was cleared, titled, then
homes were built and sold to the
people slightly above actual cost.
The only thing that beats getting
behind and pushing a community
is to get ahead and pull. This
progressive work on the part of
