Dredges River

For years the coal companies along the river had been dumping their waste coal and culm into the Schuylkill until it's channel was checked to a height of Is feet. This is now being dredged out of the river, the channel restored, and about one- third of the coal reclaimed.
 At first, business was opposed. But the other day, Revelle Brown, President of the Reading Railroad, told the Governor: They've been rapping you over the Schuylkill River, but I think it's one of the best things the state has ever done"

 For years, Pennsylvania was rul- ed by the barons of coal, steel, gas, and oil. What they wanted, they largely got. And the normal COP Governor in Harrisburg usually did their bidding.

 Nevertheless, Marcus Jensen can have the satis- faction of knowing that the house. cleaning he started will be carried on There were enough Republicans and independent Democrats elected to insure this fact
 If MT Jensen had spent much of his time and money campaigning he did to show up an unsaoVry mess" the election result might have been different.
 He appeared before the Grand Jury here We are informed that there question of irregularities he exposed and as result the Grand Jury recom- mended that the banking laws of the Territory be looked into and changes made to avoid such things taking place in the future That does not morally let out by any those responsible for such abuse of the lack of law

 Lets Start Now"
 Nance led off a discussion among adults toward a more elaborate party next year. "If CAP can do this in six days, what a party we could have if everyone started planning now" he said. "I'll go in with you on anything you want to do-let's get started this week"
 One man offered to bring his popcorn machine, saying, I'd like to treat the youngsters once a year." Someone else said he'd help build a runway for a parade of the costumed revelers, another person offered to donate several boxes Of apples. ..
 Anyone with ideas for next year is asked to see Marcum, who said, This is a great satisfaction for Civil Air Patrol members. Although we have only small unit here, we have been seeking to identify ourselves with some worthwhile community service.
 "The CAP has a special interest in ytung people-our Squadron sponsors a cadet corps for pre- flight training, so this is a nat ural. We hope to have a bigger and better party next Halloween. How glad we are that we acted on the idea for this one, even though we had less than a week to put it on"
 In Clever Costume Outstanding costume among the hundreds of colorfully garbed young guests was that of Bill White. Bill, the 14-year-old son of MT. and Mrs. Eugene White, was a sensa- tion in the costume he had made in two days. (Shows what imagina- tion and homework can dob. Bill was the silvery robot who walked stiffly through the crowds. He made the outfit from cartons of various sizes, covered with alum mum paint.

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 28.-The
New Orleans Times-Picayune and
States asserted today it is not
guilty of violation of Federal anti
trust laws and monopolistic prac-
tices injurious to the rival New
Orleans Item.
A civil antitrust action was
filled June IA in Federal Court
here by Attorney General Nc
Grath against the Times-Picayune
and States, and four officials of
the publishing company.
This is the first civil suit brought
by the Government against news
papers charging damage to COM
peting newspaper.
Trade Restraint Alleged.
The Governments complaint
listed a series of advertising and
circulation practices which it
claimed the Times-Picayune and
States employed in restraint of
trade and to the detrimerft of the
Item.
A Government contention that
the Times-Picayune, a morning
newspaper, purchased the after
noon New Orleans States in 1888
under restrictive covenants in
order to prevent competition" was
fatty denied.
The defendants also said that
the Item was negotiating for the
purchase Of the States when the
Times-Picayune acquired it, and
that it was the intent of the
Item owners of that time to merge
the States and the Item 80 as
to eliminate competition in the
afternoon field in New Orleans" :"
Some Practices Admitted.
The, defendants answer filed
late yesterday admitted certain
practices alleged by the Govern
ment, such as selling advertising
in morning and afternoon COM
bination, but declared such pro-
cedures were generally employed
by newspaper publishing organi-
cations.
The answer also contended
there is no violation of law in
such action, and asserted that
these same practices were used
by the Item in former years when
the owners of the paper at that
time also published the morning
Tribune. The Tribune was later
discontinued.
The defendants denied q Gov
ernment contention that they
used the dominant advantage"
of the Times-Picayune ito injure
and destroy" the Item.
Other Media Cited.
The Times-Picayune and States
also denied a Government state
ment that they and the Item ARE
the only significant media of
news, advertising and other in
formation in the city. The defend
ants answer cited magazines,
radio stations, television, bill
boards, handbills. direct mail and
streetcar advertising as other
media open to advertisers.
The Governments suit charged
the Times-Picayune and States
prohibited vendors of their news
papers from selling the Item.
The newspapers replied that
since June. 1850, there have been
no such restrictions, and before
that time certaip requirements on
a few vendors were established as

eral strike here today in protest.
But the scheduled eight-hour

The city's streetcars were ex-

functioned normally. Stores opened
on schedule.

brought some 300 tons of Amer

demonstrations failed to material

Speaking last night to q gath
ering celebrating his recent elec-

Bar Association Votes
To Continue Post Of
Executive Secretary

The District Bar Association
last night voted overwhelmingly to
continue its Office of full-time
executive secretary.
Retention of the Office through
June 81, 1851, at least, was as
sured. when the members adopted
by voice vote a recommendation
to that effect by a majority of
the board of directors.
John L. Laskey, association
president, said at the Mayf1ower
Hotel meeting that the directors
had recommended continuance of
the Office, after studying a favor
able report offered by a special
committee on the subject Mr..
Laskey said the committee, headed
by A. L. Pilkerton. considered the
Office essential at least for the
next fiscal year and on a
permanent basis, if it can be
strongly financed"
Mr.. Laskey said the special COM
mittee felt the position is par
ticularly necessary now in view of
the scheduled annual convention
in Washington this September of
the American Bar Association.
The group rejected by a large
majority a motion by Daniel S.
Ring that the final decision on
the matter be postponed until a
scheduled special meeting of the
group at 4 pm. May 2. in the
Landlord and Tenant Branch of
Municipal Court. This meeting
has been called to consider q pro-
posa1 that a marital affairs coun-
sci be appointed to work IN con-
nection with District Court.
The position of executive secre-
tary, which pays $500 a year,
was established last March to
maintain q good relationship be-
tween the association and legis-
lative agencies and the general
public.
