REPUBLICAN PARTY
 BREACH GROWING
Pennsylvania (. 0. P. Battle Precipitated by Atterbury

Philadelphia, Oct. 10 lR - The breach in the republican party Of Pennsylvania is growing.
 Starting with the revolt of power ful Philadelphia leaders against the candidacy of Clifford Pinchot, repub- lican nominee for governor, leading republicans in other parts of the state have declared for John M. Hemphill, democratic liberal oppo- nent of Pinchot.
 What is considered in political circles as one of the most important recent developments in a campaign that is daily growing more bitter was the resignation of General w. w. Atterbury, president of the Penn- sylvania railroad, as republican na- tional committeeman from Pennsyl- yania.
 Leaders Organize
 While Edward Martin, chairman of the republican state committee, was announcing at Harrisburg the resignation of Atterbury, substantial business men, bankers and indus trial leaders, many of them prom inent in republican politics, were or ganizing In Pittsburgh to aid Hemp hill. They formed a ways and means committee for the liberal party sim liar to the one launched by Phila- delphia business men several days ago.
 Martin declined to make public General Atterburys letter of resig- nation, but stated that he had re- linquished the post because he was unable to support all the candidates on the state ticket. It was general ly understood by political observers that Atterbury referred to Pinchot
 Pinchot Calls Him Traitor
 Pinchot himself, recognized Alter bury's resignation as directed at him and characterized him as traitor
 There was only one other man in Pennsylvania" Pinchot said, "who by bolting the republican party could have helped the state ticket as much as Charlie Hall helped it, and that man was Atterbury.
 "Atterbury's elimination from the republican party will do the repub- licans of Pennsylvania no harm and the republicans of the nation mucf good. His treachery to the party which honored him has made the is. sue 50 crystal that nobody can mis- understand it."

is unsatisfactory makes little difference
to the domestic consumer of power and
light, though 1t may temporarily slow
up sales for new electrical devices for
domestic use. Another stabilizing fac
tor Is the service charge which many
OF the industrial users OF power have to
pay. irrespective Of a decrease in the
unit Of power employed.
Expansion Necessary.
The stability of public utility earn
ings, with the II per cent increase in
production Of power In 1929, has en-
couraged public utility managers and
their bankers TO 60 ahead with plans
for the sale Of additional bonds and
preferred stocks in order to carry out
programs made up long before the stock
market collapse developed. They ex-
pect general business to be about nor
NAL again within six months.
Unless they proceed with their expan-
sion plans, they will be unable to meet
the requirements of their consumers in
1881. The reduction in money rates
comes at time when negotiations for
new financing were under way, but In
some cases deferred by an inability of
corporations and their bankers to agree
on rates OF interest and subscription
prices for new issues. With the lower
rates the borrower can now come to
better terms with his banker than pre-
viously. In some respects he is in a
stronger position than he has been since
the early part Of 1928.

Reports at Hand Reveal
Striking Gains Last Year.
Expansion Necessary.
n,.nstch 70 The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. February 8.-The sta
bility Of the public utility industry and
of the earnings of its leading operating
and holding companies stands out con-
spicuously just now, when corporation
reports for the final months OF 1929
reflect the severe slump in manufactur-
ing, in merchandising and In steam
transportation.
During December, when the iron and
steel industry recorded the lowest level
of production for the month since 1922
and there was stagnation in the auto
mobile trade and large percentages OF
decrease in the turnover Of retail stores
/ and of jobbers in nearly every sec
ton of the United States, as we'll as the
sharpest fall In railroad earnings for
any month in two years, the output OF
electric power for the country as a
whole exhibited little change.
Utilities Reports.
! Reports examined today of a number
| Of the prominent public utility COM
parlies indicate that the business reac-
| ton was felt by them to some extent,
and reflected in smaller gross earnings
! for December in parts of the Industrial
Of Ohio and Indiana; also In the De-
troit district, in sections of the Pitts
burgh territory: in Montana, where
copper production was reduced: In
/ Texas. owing to smaller ginning opera
tons, and in some of the industrial
centers In New York State.
! Owing to the geographical distribu-
ton of the modern public utility hold
| ing company with respect to its operat-
ing uncs, the losses in one district
have been covered by the gains else
where. This brings q fairly even per-
Torrance with respect to earnings to
the public utility industry in seasons Of
industrial depression.
The main factor, however, has been
the steady growth in the amount of
so-called domestic use of power. This
has increased so rapidly since the bust
ness crisis in 1920-21 and in the less
severe reactions in 1924 and 1927 that
the diversity in the use Of power and
light, as well as geographical diversity
permit the utility companies to suffer
considerable loss among the industries
and still maintain strong position.
1t is estimated that the domestic Use
of power and light has now reached q
balance with so-called industrial use
and that the former Is likely TO exceed
the latter In the next few years.

featuring plant will use less power un.

Will the increase continue at its pres

Of warning:
"The combined State and local gov
eminent net bonded indebtedness has
shown q growth more rand than that
of tangible wealth over a period of at
least IL years, from 1918, when the
combined State and local net bonded
debt eQualed 1T per cent Of the tangible
wealth, to 1927, when it eoualed 3.5 per
cent Of tangible wealth, or double the
proportion pertaining before the war"
If wealth against which the bonds are
issued grows at faster rate than the
debt, the debt burden becomes relatively
less. But the opposite condition existed
from 1918 to 1927. That's the dangerl
Production Problem.
Why should nine-tenths of the people
live in comparative poverty In a country
recognized as the most efficient on
earth?
This is a query John Carter raises
about this efficient but very paradoxical
business era. Why equip production
with machinery which cannot be worked
900 days year without producing q
stock that cannot be sold in this or In
any other country?"
Labor has increased in productivity
about so per cent since the war. But
with this efficiency has developed
chronic unemployment of about 10 pei
cent. Whyp
Mr.. Carter questions Americas boosted
efficiency to produce desirable results ir

doxes exist in American business life
because OF the overemphasis on partic.

| Because we ourselves make more
| things than We want or can dispose of
we are equipping the rest of the worlt
to manufacture more of these things,
suggests Mr.. Carter. 1.-THE whole cues

1t is much easier to champion q par
