PROTHONOTARY
FEE BILL VETOED
Governor Says Cost of Court
action Should Not Be
Raised

Governor Sproul has vetoed the bill
In counties containing less than 100000
population on the ground that he is
not convinced of necessity. saying THE
expenses attendant upon a resort to the
courts by our people should not be ex-
cessive or so high as to tend to work
a denial of justice to those of moderate
means" He also vetoed the bill fixing
salaries of chief clerk and assistant
in Philadelphia board of revision of
taxes on the ground that councils and
not the Legislature should fix the COM
pensation.
Other vetoes included Authorizing
acting Commission of Labor to employ
and discharge employees on the ground
that he now has the power.
Forbidding insurance companies, ex-
cept life insurance companies to trans
act business except through resident
agents on the ground that existing
laws are adequate.
Increasing salaries and reclassifying
factory inspectors, because he is not
convinced of necessity, as the act of
time and it would add considerably TO
the factory inspection pay roll.
Establishing title to realty bought
from an extinct corporation when no
deed was delivered. The Governor says
1t is a novel method and that II
person has neglected to secure deed
he "can not reasonably look to the State
to help him out of his difficulty"
Bills Approved
The Governor has approved the
amendments to the worimen's compen-
sation insurance acts carried IN the
House bill passed in the closing days
of the LEGISLATURE and hereafter no
system of schedule or merit rating can
be applied to such insurance premiums
except through a rating bureau ap-
proved by the Insurance Commissioner.
The bill, which caused considerable dis
cussion in the Legislature, also pro-
vides that copies of such insurance
polocies and endorsements thereon must
be filed with the rating bureau.
Other bills approved add twenty
six clerks at $500 year, Tor mes
sengers or custodians at $1,000 each
and one janitor at $1,000 to the force OF

Thirty States Claim
Relief From Government

Washington, July 24.-To show
the far-reaching effect of Attorney
General Palmer's opinion through
which seventy-five per cent. of the
claims against the War Minerals
Relief Commission are eliminated.
The American Mining Congress
has analyzed and first makes pub
lie the list of claimants showing
that thirty States and three foreign
nations are interested. The wide
spread development of these miner
ais under war stimulus is a startling
proof that Americans have known
very little about domestic resources.
Before the war it was not believed
that the ferro-a1loys minerals nee
essary for high-grade steel produc-
ton could be prof1tably produced in
the United States. The filing of
foreign claims is a result of a pecu-
liar accident by which the words
Produced in the United States"
were dropped out of the bill as
finally passed. leaving the door open
to Americans who had invested
abroad to assist the government, to
file claims.

WHY BRAZILIANS
FAVOR GERMANS
In Business Latter Devotes
Efforts to Please Gus
toner

Rio De Janerio, Brazil. July "a
Whatever else the Brazilians may
think of the German, they have a
strong liking for the business meth
DDS of the German representatives
formerly in Brazil. Pattern after
the German if you would be sue
cessful in dealing with the Brazilian
merchants is the advice Brazilians
give to North Americans seeking to
establish commercial connections
held by European business houses
before the war.
1t is not from a desire to criticise
but more from a spirit of sympathy
and helpfulness that Brazilians offer
this advice.
One local merchant says the Ger
man devoted all his efforts to
pleasing the customer. He learned
the native language, catered to the
likes, whims and eccentricities of
the buyer. He did not try to con-
vince the customer that he did not
know his business or that the peo-
pie did not know the styles. Instead
he ordered from Europe exactly
what the merchant requested and
when the shipment arrived he was
on hand to see that it was right
or to make it satisfactory.
In contrast to this the Brazilian
merchants tell of many North
Americans trying to sell them some
thing they do not want, trying to
convince the Brazilian that he does
not know his own market, or even
taking his order and then sending
something entirely different. The
story is told of one Brazilian order
ing a number of black horses from
North America and receiving all
white.
Generally the Brazilians are SYM
pathetic toward the incoming North
Americans. But if they are coming
into the field to stay it is felt they
should learn to play the game ac-
cording to local rules-please the
man who is doing the buying and
who in turn must please the people
In order to dispose of his goods.

EXTRA ENGINES HELD
TO MOVE THE COAL
Every Effort Is Being Made to Prevent Big Fuel Famine
This Winter Coal Cars Are Being Put Into Shape
to Meet Expected Jam in the Fall

condition and held in reserve. More
new locomotives have been delivered
since January last, than were de-
hVered all last year. Twenty-Five new
engines were delivered last week.
Statements estimating the number of
coal cars unfit for service at 1000, 900
with 100000 of these unservtcable on
one line alone (The Pennsylvania
Railroad) seem not to be borne out by
railroad figures but nine per cent or
fully $4,000 of the open-tops are either
out of commission or in shops There
has been costly delay in making re-
pairs and in replacing worn out rolling
stock, many railroads refusing to meet
the repair bills and holding the Ad-
ministraton responsible. Mr.. Hines
has solved the situation by taking re-
sponsibility and to-day every available
repair man is at work, all shops are
working full time. and 5000 Pennsyl-
vania cars are in outside shops under
contract
THE enormous advance in cost Of
building new cars. $4,000 box. $4,000
gondolas and $4,000 other open-tops,
led to refusal of many companies to
accept the new cars at the war-con-
tract price, and Director Hines is ap-
pointing a trustee to place the new
cars in service, control their movement
and settle the price later
Another element which will control,
is labor. Even IL the wage increase
is avoided-and many producers ex-
pect the increase-a coal miner can
only produce SO many pounds per day.
He can only be multiplied to the mine
capacity, and unless the cars can be
moved-empties in and loaded out
the nine cannot produce to capacity.
If the wage increase comes hundreds
of high cost" properties may be
forced to close down, thus lessening
the supply.
There are no sensational disclo-
sures coming as has been promised,
to show direct .incompetency, but a
state of war could hardly produce a
more effective block to normal move
ment of fuel.
Members will do we'll to protect
themselves and warn their friends"

Washington, July "a. To test
the correctness of the various state
ments made relative to the danger of a
national coal famine this winter the
American Mining Congress has an
alyzed the situation and has issued
the following appeal to its membership
for cooperation with the coal producers
in urging quick development OF the in
dustrial fuel market.
"A large percentage of Industrial
fuel users are treating lightly the warn
ings of the National Coal Association
that industrial consumers of power
coal are facing a shortage IN supply
when the peak of the coal movement
arrives. For the guidance of our MEM
bers we wish to place the following
analysis before them and to urge that
every one cooperate to urge quick
development for early delivery of all
needed fuel. Possibly some statements
made in the campaign to build the mar
ket have been over drawn, but con-
sideration of the combined elements
controlling the situation leads to the
conclusion that the most complete CO.
operation between buyers, railroads
and producers will be necessary to meet
market requirements. We submit the
following facts upon which the con-
clusion is based:
Sold as Fast as Mined
Anthracite producers are meeting
fine response and every ton is sold as
fast as produced. Domestic fuel orders.
in the East especially are well balanced.
Industrial consumers were led to
over-buy under stimulus of the Fuel
Administration propaganda and at a
wartime price. Thousands thus over
supplied are using coal on hand and
Withholding orders for possible price
decline. Logically every element
points to continued established price
or higher level. Coal mines can only
produce when transportation is avail
able. The rush" for coal cars will
come In the early fall about the time
that the wheat crop begins to move.
The task of moving these two COM
modities is. in normal years, enor-
nous, and this year. with car short
age in sight, Europe crying for food
and a stiff wheat price forcing every
bushel into market there will be a
Jam" everywhere.
Extra Engines Held
Because of lack of orders, coal men
have been unable to estimate to the
Railroad Administration the probable
movement. hence Director Hines iSas
been unable to make plans, but 1000
extra locomotives have been put in

Homemaking Taking Its
Place Among Vacations

Washington, July 24.-Represen-
..+;ons of tho Federal Board for
vocational Education are co-operat-
,ng with the universities in their
s,,1,noer courses by giving lectures.
boIding conferences and leading dis
cussions on the various types of vo-
cational education as defined by
the vocational education act The
vocation of homemaking Is given a
place with trade and industrial sub
sects at Columbia. The summer
school at Cornell gives vocational
agriculture and home economics
among the courses offered. This
indicates growing interest in the
subject of vocational education in
general and in vocational home
making in particular.

BEGIN HOT WATER
DRINKING IF YOU
DON'T FEEL RIGHT
Says glass of hot water with
phosphate before breakfast
washes out poisons.

If you, wake up with bad taste,
bad breath and tongue is coated; if
your head is dull or aching; if what
you eat sours and forms gas and acid
in stomach, or you are bilious, con-
stipated, nervous, sallow and can't
get feeling just right, begin inside
bathing. Drink before breakfast, a
glass of real hot water with tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in
it. This will flush the poisons and
toxins from stomach, liver, kidneys
and bowels and cleanse, sweeten and
purify the entire alimentary tract.
Do your inside bathing Immediately
upon arising in the morning to wash
out of the system all the previous
days poisonous waste, gases and
sour bile before putting more food
into the stomach.
To feel like young folks feel; like
you felt before your blood, nerves and
muscles became loaded with impuri-
ties, get from your pharmacist q
quarter pound Of limestone phosphate
which is inexpensive and almost
tasteless, except for sourish twinge
which is not unpleasant.
Men and women who are usually
constipated, bilious, headachy or
have any stomach disorder should
begin this inside bathing before
breakfast. adv.
