Labor Vote Is Not A MYTH

Some of the old members
all labor haters-are Pom
creme, New, Newberry, Frey
lingheusen, McCumber, Poin-
dexter and Calder. | think
the club will let Burns and
Daugherty join. though they
are not Senators.
At the way things are GO
ing, lame ducks will soon ad-
wise their friends that they
must pay some attention to
the labor vote. Otherwise
the membership of the Lame
Duck Club will continue to
grow by leaps and bounds.

Who says, There amt no
such thing as a labor vOte?"
Recent primary election
returns prove that there is
a labor vote and that it is be-
ing effectively used. At
every primary election in
which labor has taken an act
i've part a new member has
been added to the already
OvercrOwed Lame Duck Club.
United States Senators
Ball, Dial, Elkins, McCor-
mick, Shields and Sterling

they can finish early. In fact this
was true of SO many people last No
vember that the Park National Bank
will be able to distribute it's 1924
checks to all of the Christmas savers
very close to the first day of Decem-
Der.
There is a plan to suit everyone no
matter how much or little he wishes
to save. He may join with an open
ing deposit of .01, .02, .05, 10, 25,
so, $1.00, $500, $500, $500, $1,000
and $4,000 or more and the pennies,
nickeis and dimes ordinarily wasted
will easily keep up the payments.
Another striking thing about the
Christmas Club is that almost every
one who has a club for one year in
creases the amount that they will
save when they start again for the
next year.
The Park National Bank allows 40
interest on Christmas Savings which
means that the small weekly pay
ments are drawing the full rate of in
terest. Of course Christmas Savings
depositors receive the same complete
services and the same safety for their
fund as is given all other depositors
in this National Bank.

PARK NATIONAL
CHRISTMAS CLUB
OPENS TODAY
The Park National Announces
Friday AS Opening Date for
1925 Club

The 1925 Christmas Club of the
Park National Bank opens Friday,
November 21st. This will make it
possible for the people of Newark to
get an early start for happier
Christmas in 1925.
The Park National Bank which is
starting on its fourth year with a
Christmas Club has had a remarkable
growth in this department. The club
has doubled in size each year over
the proceeding year since it's start.
The bank has installed complete
department to handle Christmas Saw
ings in order that everyone in New
ark might have an opportunity to
provide money for next Christmas in
the easiest and most practical way.
1t is surprising how many people
are using the Christmas Club to ac-
cumulate money for gifts for the en-
tire family, to pay insurance prem
iums, to buy homes, to pay taxes and
to provide funds for vacations.
The first payment is not due until
December 10th but great many peo-
pie like to get started early so that

Washington Tenants
Must Pay More Rent

Washington-It may not have been
a direct result of the landslide for
Coolidge and the G. o. P, but never
theless it is significant that within
three days after the slush-fund vic
tory was announced a Washington
landlord served notice on 295 tenants
of a big apartment house that their
rents would be increased and if not
paid they would be evicted This
apartment, as are many others in
Washington, is tenanted largely by
government employees whose wages
average in the neighborhood of 81, 400
per year.
This tragedy of the landlord and
tenant is best told by Mrs. Mary A.
Kellogg, which is typical of hundreds
of others. She said to a reporter who
visited her:
81 moved into the Clifton Terrace
apartment house in 1920. My apart
ment has one room, kitchenette and
bath. | paid $27.50 a month when /
moved in. l am now paying $4,000.
l have received notice to sign a new
lease at $55 if | wish to keep my
apartment. My annuity from the
government, as a retired employe,
yields $55.16 a month. If l pay the
rental now asked it will leave me 16
cents of my monthly pension"
Congress enacted a law several
years ago creating rent commission
for the District of Columbia as a
means of preventing landlords from
gouging government employees. 1t
was intended to meet a housing emer-
gency
A few days ago the District of Co.
lumbia Court of Appeals, which as
sumes to know more about the hous-
ing situation than the government
employees or Congress, responding to
a petition filed by Washington land
lords, held that any emergency had
ceased to exist and that the law
creating the rent commission was
therefore null and void
Property owners of the District of
Columbia enjoy the lowest taxes of
any city in the country, because the
government, out of the United States
Treasury, pays practically half of
the taxes.
The coal barons of West Virginia
do not have a Corner" on the evic-
ton process. Right here in the Ma
tional Capital it is being demonstrat-
ed that "realtors" are akin to mine
owners.

TUNNLLING TO EMPIRE
THROUGH THE
CONTINENTAL DIVIDE

We are generally inclined to be-
lleve that the age of great railroad
pioneering has passed long since, and
that no more great engineering feats
remain for modern builders.
But fifty miles west of Denver
work has been started on the six-mile
Moffat tunnel which will pierce the
continental divide at an altitude of
5000 feet and which will be the gate
way to an undeveloped empire larger
setts, Connecticut and Rhode Island
Furthermore, the railroad will pass
through a rich agricultural region
and cut the very center of a terri
tory which contains enough coal to
last the entire United States for
nearly 5000 years, more than seven
teen times the amount of oils thus fa1
taken from all the oil wells of the
country, and over 100000 undevelop-
ed horse power in electricity. AL
though estimates have been made, the
extent and amount of such minerals
as iron, copper, zinc, lead and hydro
carbons such as ozerkerite, gilsonite,
wurtzilite, nigrite, elaterite, are still
little more than rough approximate
waiting for development and closer
exploration for fairly accurate esti-
mates.
That region is the western corner
of Colorado and the eastern part of
Utah-a hinterland filled with vast
natural resources and waiting only
for adequate transportation to begin
boom of tremendous prosperity.
Moffat tunnel has not attracted
much attention outside Colorado At
first it was the dream of one man,
but now it is district affair, spon-
sored especially by Denver because it
is expected to make that city a future
distribution point for the oil eventu
ally to be extracted from the oil shale
of the Uinta basin. And, when the
six-mile tunnel is opened, the Carbon
county coal fields will be able to ship
coal across the short cut to Denver
and thus reach the states northward
at a much lower cost for transporta

NOT IN 1T WITH "SCOTTY"

That the radio as a dispenser of in
formation does not travel in the same
class as "Scotty" was demonstrated
beyond reasonable doubt last Sat-
urday afternoon, when our neighbor
across the way endeavored to foist
one of these instruments upon the
public in place of the versatile genius
whose base ball announcements have
gained a statewide reputation.
The machine didn't take worth a
cent. The people passed it up, and
did not linger to hear the doleful
nolses--something between an ap-
preaching cyclone and a traction en-
gine-eminating thereform. If you
want to interest and hold the crowd
you'll have to produce the flesh and
blood original, nothing else goes.

He said that Wayne B. Wheeler

fered from cold feet when the liquor

that his pedal extremities were not
so affected and that he was unalter-
ably opposed to foisting the scheme
upon a long suffering people. HIS
talk, supplemented by the remarks of
another member, turned the scale and
defeated the ordinance which it is un-
derstood was slated for adoption.

Immense Profits of
Coal Mine Owners

New York - Hard-boiled Wall
street is staggered at the profits of
the Delaware, Lackawanna & West
ern coal company and the Lehigh Val
ley coal sales company. Although
1928 was far from a normal year,
Lackawanna's profits were S5,5O0,OOO,
and Lehigh's $2,5OO,0OO. These prof
its are approximately one-third of
Lackawanna's capital stock and one
quarter of Lehigh's capital stock.
The incomes have been iealously
guarded. Part of the campaign of Sc
crecy is to shout "high wages" de-
manded by the men who risk their
lives in coal mines.

And who from the meeting do carry news;
Who attend to their duties and visit the sick
These the that the crank calls "The Clique"
WE all should be proud of members like these
They call them "The Clique" whatever they pleas
But there are some people who always find fault,
And most of this kind not worth their SALT

Step Lively a Good Show

"Step Lively" the musical comedy
produced at the Auditorium Monday

Club, ran true to its name, and was
something out the usual amateur
performance. 1t gave unbounded sat-

was undoubted one of the best home
