PROPOSED
POWER FOR
BUCKS

East Pa. Gas and Electric Co. pro-
poses net of power lines to cover en-
tire county.
New Hope Nearby residents who
have sought in vain to secure electric
light and power from the Public Ser
vice Corporation, will be glad to
hear of the proposed plan of the East
Pennsylvania Gas and Electric Co. to
extend lines all over the Delaware
Valley for transmitting light and pow
er to homes and industries. That the
plan is substantial is given. credence
by 1.-THE fact that the Federal Govern
ment is working on the project. A line
from Tullytown to Penn Valley and
Morrisville is already under construc-
ton. This is primarily to supply cur
rent to the sand pits so numerous a.
round Penn Valley.
The Langhorn Electric Light and
Power Co. is said to be planning to a.
bandon their plant as soon as the new
lines are erected. They figure they can
buy light and power on this new plan
cheaper than they can manufacture it.
1t is sincerely hoped that this extern
sion will reach New Hope.

lutions were adopted Friday, April
% by the Board of Directors of the
Amwell National Bank:
Whereas, the President of this
bank, Warren A. Greene, departed

Therefore be it resolved
That we thus express our sorrow
at having lost valued official who

that will never be forgotten.
And be it further resolved, that
copy of these resolutions be record
ed in the minutes of the bank pub

The day was the anniversary of both

was the subject of the main part of
the Presidents speech, and Of It he
said:
1.-THE doctrine proclaimed under
Monroe. which ever since has been

Of our own republic, maintained that
these continents should not again be
regarded as fields for the colonial en-
terprises Of old world powers.
There have been times when the
meaning of Monroeism was misunder-
stood by some, perverted by others,
and made the subject of distort,ng
propaganda by those who saw In 1t an
obstacle to their own ambitions.
"The history of the generations
since that doctrine was proclaimed
mas proved We never intended 1t self
ishly; that we had no dream Of ex-
ploitation.

the last decade certainly must hsve'

tect these continents, these sturdy

ORDINANCE FOR FIRE CHIEF

Lambertville- The City Commiss-
toner's, at last Thursdays meeting
considered a new ordinance which
is designed to do away with the
deadlocking of the election of fire
Chiefs and assistants in this city in
the future. The four fire companies
are now tied on the nominations of
Thomas Thorne and Elmer Docherty
for chief, to succeed George w. Ar
nett, who has headed the department
for twenty one years, and now retires
on i'll health.
Each year there has been deadlocks
on the assistants, but for the first
time in twenty years it is shifted to
he. selection of chief. The ordi-
nance has not been worked out, but
it is hoped it will provide not only
a safety against deadlocks, but will
give each company a chance for rep
sesentation.

will be much more expensive

SUGAR soap.

The discovery is announced Of a
method of manufacture of soap from
sugar instead of from oil. In the
past it has been possible to use sugar
only in soaps that had little value.
By the new method, it is claimed,
the soap produced is not fine and
delicate, but it acts as efficiently
in salt water as in fresh-a fact that
may make the soap valuable for the
navy. Articles that formerly had to
be sent to chemical laundries can be
washed with this new kind of soap.
The finest kinds of silks, it is al
legged, not only are not harmed by it,
but their colors are brought out bril-
iantly as if new. In addition, the
sugar-soap seems to be responsible
for minimum of the wear and tear
occasioned by old-fashioned cleans
ing soaps.

TURN YOUR BONDS IN.

Over million people in this FEEDER
al Reserve District, most of whom are
holding coupon bonds of the Fourth
Liberty Loan in the small denomin-
atoms of $50 and 500, are losing in
terest by failing to turn in their tenn
porary bonds and secure permanent
bonds in place of them. The last in
terest coupon on the temporary bonds
fell due on October Is, and interest
due and payable on April Is cannot
be collected until the exchange is
made. The permanent bonds have cou-
pons attached dated April Is, and ev-
cry six months thereafter during the
life of the bonds.
Exchanges of these TEMPORARY
bonds can be made at almost any bank
or trust company or at the Federal

JAPIIAND zap

According to the Tokyo newspapers.
the Japanese cabinet has decided that
there is no reason TO change Japan's
policy on the zap mandate because
of the recent American note on the
subject. Public opinion in Japan Is
increasingly against any yielding IN
the controversy. and no one in the
United States believes our administra-
tion will give an inch. Official infor-
nation has reached Washington that
the CONSUMPTION and universal mill
tary training laws Of Japan are being
applied more rigidly, and that all
Japanese officers stationed in the Pa
cific Islands south of the equator and
In the East Indies have been recalled
10 japan, and all Japanese between
the ages of twenty-one and thirty
seven without previous service have
been ordered to return 10 Japan for
military training. Former Secretary
Of the Navy Daniels, in an address
at Memphis, said: America cannot
surrender the zap cables even IL It
should mean war with Japan. =.
No matter what 1t may cost, and maf
may be war, I cannot imagine that a
peaceful settlement of the zap situ-
alton with Japan will be found"
All of this sounds rather warike.
But the allied powers in Europe seem
inclined TO side with the United
States in the controversy, and reliable
observers believe that If they 90
consent to exclude zap from the jap
anese mandate, Japan VIII be forced
TO bow to such decision.

REAL TURK NOT A BARTEhGA
Refuses to Go Out of His Way to
Make a Sale, and Is Apt to
Ignore Strangers.

Love of baksheesh (gratuities) be
trays the falsely named Turk. Eager
ness to do something for you or bust
ness with you is another sign of the
mongrel Turk. Some real Anatolian
Turks are merchants and sit in the
bazaars. But they will not go out of
their way to make a sale and they
really do not care if you buy or not.
Often they ignore strangers; some
times they rebuff them. When you
run up against this type in the
hazaars, where all the Jews and Gen
tiles are after your money with an
insistence that we call oriental, II is
like n dash of cold water in your face,

HERD FARMS
NOT SOLD

New Hope Six of the famous Herd
farms, which had almost a national
reputation three years when promoted
by Anderson T. Herd, New Yorker,
were saved from the Sheriff's ham
mer last Friday when claims and
costs aggregating $4,000. were paid
by unknown capitol. But rumor has
it that the money was put up by
New Workers, and that efforts will
be made to resume the operations
once started by Mr.. Herd.
All of them are located in the Sole
bury Valley, and include: The former
Charles Leonard farm, on the Sugar
road, between the Solebury Meeting
House and Lahaska; containing 1875
acres and extensive buildings.
The Price Farms, on the Upper York
Road, containing SO acres and build
ings.
The Ely farm, on the upper road
from New Hope to Center Hill, in the
rear of the Solebury Meeting House,
containing ia acres of land, extern
sive and elaborate buildings, and for
three years past the headquarters of
the Herd interests in Solebury Town
ship.
The Wilkinson farm, also on the
Sugar road, containing buildings and
improvements, with approximately
100 acres in two tracts.
The Vasey farm, on the New Hope
Center Hill road, containing a total
of rs acres, and extensive buildings.
The Herman farm, II acres, adjoin-
ing the Ely farm, on the upper road
to Center Hill.
The johnson farm where Herd un-
dertook extensive improvements, and
maintained headquarters barn that
looked like a mchinery display at
county fair, does not appear to be in
cluded in the lot that the Doylestown
Trust Company and other creditors
are selling through Sheriff Wesley D.
Husnberger, of Bucks County.
At the johnson place an extensive
garage and administration building
was erected. 1t is one of the largest
and finest in Pennsylvania, and con-
tains every improvement and modern
device. Extensive work was done on
the farm house at this point, many
thousands of dollars being expended.
But it was never completed, and Twill
cost several thousand more to make
it inhabitable.
At one time small army of men
were employed at these farms, and
money flowed like the proverbial wat
err. but operations finally dwindled to
nothing. Aside from furnishing a
satisfactory market for several farms
at the time of the beginning of the
project, it is questionable whether it
ever did any real good for the COM
munity
Many have wondered where Herd
is now located. No clue is furnished
by any of his friends. Rumor had it
for a time that Lewis A. Ashton, the
caretaker, had not received his pay,
but Mr.. Ashton denies this emphati-
cally. He claims that Anderson I.
Herd can be found if wanted.
