Philadelphia Officials
Accused of Failure
To Protect Property
BY the Associated Press.


PHILADELPHIA, April 5.-A 98-
year-old law formed the basis of a
damage suit which the Apex Hosiery
Co. officials said today they would
press against the city of Philadel-
phia as the result of sit-doWn
strike at its mill two years ago.
Awarded $736 1892 damages from a
labor union Monday, the company
pressed another action against the
Philadelphia County commissioners
and other officials on grounds that
they failed to provide adequate po-
lice protection.
The suit named, in addition to
the county commissioners, Mayor S.
Davis Wilson, Sheriff William l..
Hamilton, jr., and Andrew j. Eman-
uel. director of public safety. 1t was
brought under a Pennsylvania law
of 1841 making Philadelphia, AL
legheny Pittsburgh and North
ampton Counties liable for prop
erty destroyed by mobs" The statute
had not been invoked since the
"know-nothing" political riots of
1850.
In this action, pending in Chester
County Court on change of venue,
the company seeks $1,O26 900 dam
ages.
The claim was filed some time
ago, but the damage verdict against
the labor union focused attention
on it anew.

Social Responsibility
Urged on Business
By Patterson
Assistant Secretary
Speaks at Junior Board
Of Commerce Dinner

A greater acceptance by business
leaders of social responsibility was
urged last night by Richard c. Pat
! terson, jr., Assistant Secretary of
Commerce, who spoke at the annual
dinner of the Junior Board of Com
merce at the Mayfower Hotel.
| The increasing economic interde-
pendence between Government and
business carries with it the need for
more cooperation and understand
ing between the two, Mr.. Patterson
declared. Describing the growing
pressure being put upon democratic
nations, he said business should
join hands with Government so that
it may operate within the bounds of
democratic framework.
The responsibility of a corpora
ton. he asserted, is tWo-fold-it
must operate at a profit in the in
terest of its stockholders, but it also
must operate in the interests of So
clety.
Small Firms Are Backbone.
In citing the growing trend away
from small businesses to the forma-
ton Of corporations and trusts. the
Department of Commerce official
emphasized that the small business
man still forms the backbone of the
country. There are 100000 small
businessmen in the United States
who employ approximately 10000 900
persons" he stated. adding that the
mortality rate" is "tragically high"
for these enterprises.
To save these small concerns, Mr.. |
Patterson urged the passage by Con-
gress of proposed legislation spon-
sored by Senator Sheppard of Texas
and Representative Robinson of |
Utah establishing economic and
business research laboratories in
State universities throughout the
Nation. The bill would authorize
these laboratories to conduct studies
of price and market trends, State
income, marketing techniques and
taxes among others and would serve
as information clearing houses.
The research Offices would avoid
paternalism and at the same time
encourage aggressive pioneering
along business fronts. he declared.
He again called upon business and
government to work together and
urged the American people not to
confuse their thinking with political
issues. The important question now
he said, is to work for the continued
existence of democracy and this de-
pends on its successful operation.
Newly elected officers of the Or
ganization were formally inducted
into office. They are Minor Hud-

pump is used to discharge the fines
to the top of the stacker thus con-
solidating the sand with the over

operate the washing plant.

! Modern equipment, scientific
management, and large scale pro-
duction is the secret of the present
successful operation of the proper
ties.
Mr.. Met1en shut down his original
dredge about 1900. It had four
cubic foot buckets and was steam
driven, using wood for fuel. The
remains of this machinery may be
seen about three miles below Ban
mack.
Wood cut and piled for this dredge
is still being used, for other pur-
poses, however. This ladder dredge
was of a flume type and was used
TO a depth of 33 IT. It was ineffi-
cient in cleaning the bedrock,
though, and the highest grade grav-
ell found in present operations is on
the bedrock, which may explain
why the old plant was closed down.

The washing plant is a New York

of Butte.
Tuesday nights meeting was
largely attended, with a large num-
Der of senior and graduate students
of Montana School of Mines present.
DR.. Wilson talked on Powder Met
allurgy." the latest science in that
department of metallurgy.
Professor Dingman discussed pres
ent-day gold operations throughout
the state, most of which are being
carried in by large dredges. He
said Montana produced 100000
ounces of gold in 1888, of which
10000 ounces was the result of
dredges, the balance from other
operations. His topic was Recent
in Gold Mining in
Montana"
Regarding Powder Metallurgy,
DR.. Wilson said in part:
Powder metallurgy is the latest
development in the technique of
shaping metals and alloys. It is
the art of producing from metal
powders a formed product by hot
or cold compression, followed if
necessary by subsequent heat treat
ment.
