than in any other place in the country"
The old-fashioned "spread-eagle orator"
however, has little effect on modern leg
islation and Is gradually disappearing,
he said
Though denying that standards Of
congressional speaking are declining,
Prof. Yeager said that their style is
changing; that they are becoming more
terse and direct. During the year end
ing April, 1918, he said. there were de-
livered In the Senate l88 speeches, each
requiring an hour or more OF time.
During the past session there were only
l6 speeches of an hour or more In the
Senate. Quotations are employed much
less than in the past.
The more businesslike speeches Of
today ARE effective in the handling Of
the great multiplicity Of problems which
confront Congress" Prof. Yeager said,
adding that 1t was his belief that the
style Of congressional oratory Of hun
dred years ago would not be effective
today"

George A. Gormley, indicted on a
charge OF larceny Of more than 50, 200
from Miss Louise Maret, co-proprietor
of the Maret School for Girls, pleaded
not guilty today when arraigned before
Chief Justice Alfred A. Wheat in Dis
trict Supreme Court.
Attorney George Strong, represent
ing the countess, and Joseph Turco.
appearing for Gormley, asked for five
days in which to prepare motions attack
ing the indictment. This request was
granted. Chief Justice Wheat, however,
refused to reduce bond for either de-
fendant. Gormleys bond has been
fixed at $4,000, while the Government
is asking surety Of $4,000 for the
countess. Assistant United States At
torney William A. Gallagher told the
court the Government did not feel
either defendant was entitled to re-
duction of bond.

Collective Bargaining.

Under the new law every code Of fair
| competition must recognize the right OF
| labor to bargain collectively. Every
! code must include provisions as to mini
mum wages, maximum hours and other
working conditions, all Of which must
be approved by the President. In this
way the production and consumption
of goods will be co-ordinated. In ad-
dition we shall move step nearer to
the social and economic justice which
! we have always professed to approve.
These codes are not inflexible molds
into which every one will be forced. A
different code Is drawn up for each
trade or industry. Even within single
group the President may make modi-
fications or exemptions whenever neces-
sary to effectuate the policy Of the law.
There Is only one unalterable proviso.
That Is, that business competition must
be confined to honorable dealings and
efficiency, rather than include attempts
to reduce the wages and degrade the
living standards Of those who tend the
machine.
I'm fact, the new law does not con-
template compulsion at all. Business
men, those most familiar with the in
dustrial problems of today, are given
every opportunity to think, to plan and
to act. Nothing Is done to substitute
Government for business or to relieve
industry itself Of the prime responsible
ity for economic recovery.
However, the Government Is not
without power to compel action In the
few cases where Righteousness and rea-
son fail to produce results. I have said
that voluntary code. when approved,
becomes binding upon the entire trade
or industry. And if no such code Is
proposed, the President may prescribe
q code embodying all Of the features Of
the voluntary codes. In addition, the
law provides penalties for the violation
Of either kind Of code, and in extreme
cases the President, for one year, has
power to exclude from the channels
Of interstate commerce any business
which persists in violating a CODE.
This reserve compulsory power Is
made absolutely necessary by the eco
non1ic situation. I have pointed out
that orderliness must extend over the
entire Nation If it is to be effective
anywhere. Those who wish to comply
with the bill must not be subjected to
the guerilla warfare Of cut-throats and
exploiters."
Earlier In the year there was talk Of
a request from the President for power
to deal with other nations and arrange
for shifting Of taSi1s up or down In

time has been our antitrust laws They
were properly designed as a means to
cure the great evils Of monopolistic
price fixing. They should certainly be
retained as an assurance that the old
evils of unfair competition shall never
return. But the public interest will
be served If, with the authority and
under the guidance of Government,
private industries are permitted to make
agreements and codes insuring fair
competition. However, 1t is necessary,
if we thus limit the operation of anti
trust laws to their original purpose, to
provide a rigorous licensing power in
order to meet rare cases Of non-co-
operation and abuse. Such a safeguard
is indispensable.
York, one of those most prominently
identified with the success of this bill
in the Senate, has explained its pur-
poses in a detailed analysis, in part
as follows:
THE recovery bill represents q con-
structive attempt to bring the law into
line with present conditions. The first
step involves modification Of the anti
trust laws. These laws embodied q
nineteenth century philosophy, and they
made it impossible for group of busi-
ness men to get together and formulate
plan OF action. It was believed that
cooperation Of any sort would lead to
restraint Of trade. Today we have
learned that enforced planlessness dis
organizes and even wrecks trade and
commerce. The new law will permit
members Of any trade or industry to
including q list Of the practices and
methods which, in the judgment Of
business men, will be most likely to es-
tablish industrial order and restore en-
ployment. When such code gains the
approval of the President of the United
States 1t will become binding upon the
entire trade or industry, and action in
compliance with its terms will be
exempted from the prohibitions Of the
antitrust laws.
"By means Of these codes we are
going to develop a scientific technique
Of planning in industry which will equal
our technique of producing goods. We
are going to solve the economic problems
of today with the same realism and
directness which we applied to the
problems Of the past.
There will be no danger Of business
men using the opportunities Of united
strength in such q way as to oppreSs
the consumer or the competitor. No
code will be approved by the President
until those who propose it prove that
they are truly representative of the
trade or industry for which they speak
It must be proved also that the code
will neither tend to promote monopoly
nor discriminate against the small busi-
ness man. For the first time business
will be brought out into the open and
subjected to the constant watchfulnesS
of the President, who will have power
at any time to modify or revoke any
code.

COVE RESIDENTS OF MANY YEARS AGO FIND
MANY THINGS CHANGED ON RECENT RETURN VISIT

Postmaster W. S. Livengood, Miss
Nancy Livengood and William w.
Black, Meyersdale, Pa, and Mr.. and
Mrs. P. l.. Livengood, Salisbury, Pa,
made a trip to Cove last Sunday after
noon to review the scenes of their
childhood, the Livengoods having lived
on the farm now occupied by Albert
n Ringer.
All they found of the old log cabin
homestead in which the S. j. Liven-
good family lived from 1861 to 1867,
was a hole in the ground which once
was the cellar, filled with a thick
growth of weeds and briars. Not a
vestige of the log cabin, the barn,
spring house or other outbuildings
remains.
From there they went to the site Of
the old log Bear Greek schoolhouse
in which they received instruction
from such teachers as Austin SPEECH
er, Amy Breig and A. J. Hileman. The
only visible trace of the little log
schoolhouse, which was also used as a
church, that remains is a leveled-of
rod or two of ground in which the
house stood. The cemetery adjacent
to the site in which rest many of the
early settlers of the Cove, is covered
with a riot of weeds and brambles.
Many of the ancient tombstOnes are
lying on the ground and the inscrip-
tions on them are so weatherworn as
to be illegible Not a stone or a
board of the old Philip Gore black
smith shop, residence and other build
ings that stood opposite the school
house remains.
The visitors then proceeded to the
old Engle Mill on Bear creek, where
in the old days it was joy to accom-
pany father or big brother to the mill
when Uncle Henry Yost and later
Lewis Swap, was the miller. The
old mill is still standing but its mill
stones have ceased grinding. 1t was
operated for more than one hundred
