PUBLIC SERVICE MEN HEAR TESTIMONY IN JITNEY BUS DISPUTE The operation of jitney busses in the lower Allegheny valley, since the inauguration of the strike of street car men employed by the Allegheny valley Railways Co. was described by Edward Neeley, a jitney operator and striking employe of the railways com pany, in testifying before Public Serv- ce Commissioner John Monoghan at the courthouse today.

Cinderella proved to be fa vored far above all others. That is why tne little lady of the chimney-corner has been made the heroine of a gigantic production which is probably the greatest spectacle ever presented in America. After the decision had been made those who were to dramatize the story began to areass a library of Cinderella literature. It developed that the tale first appeared in the fairy lore of France more than a century ago. Therq are more than 30 different versions in English and the adventure ha been translated into every language.

It was the business of the dramatists to read all versions and then retain those situations which -seemed to be best known to the majority of readers. In the Ringling spectacle, which will be presented here when the circus comes to Pittsburg next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday the spectator will see the streets and castles on the fairyland city, the home of Cinderella, the coming and going of gnomes and dwarf bands, and the transformation of Ella of the Cinders from a much abused little girl to the role of the loveliest lady at the king's ball. -Then will come the loss of the glass slipper on the grand staircase, the despair of the lovelorn prince, the great contest in which all the ladies of the kingdom seek to wear the slipper, the triumph of Cinderella and her betrothal to the king's son. More than 1.000 actors take part in the spectacle. There are orchestras of great size and a fairy band of 300 dancing girls in ballets as beautiful as the title of the spectacle suggests.

The fairyland settings permie the Introduction of marvelous color effects and the costumes are gorgeous in the extreme. Besides the immense cast of people, the spectacle calls for hundreds of horses In rich trappings and a vast array of splendidly carved vehicles ranging from the pumpkin coach of Cin derella to the lavishly appointed carriages of the king and his royal train. The production is given on what is said to be the largest ever constructed. It opens the main tent circus program afternoon and night and is followed by the regular arenic numbers embracing 400 performers and a host of animal actors which, like "Cinderella," promise to delight both young and. old.

GREAT SCIENTIST GIVES VIEWS ON PUBLIC AFFAIRS CP tSTe.ittcn.etz Charles P. Steinmetz of Schenectady, one of the greatest living scientists, inventors and authorities on electricity, here to attend the convention of the National Association of Corporation schools, in an interview today, ex plained his position on affairs of the world in general and the United States in particular.

He talked most of men. however. For Henry Ford, Dr. Steinmetz has the warmest admiration; for Col. Roosevelt and President Wilson he has deep re spect, but does not always agree with them on certain subjects.

Although a member of the naval ad visory board, to which he was ap pointed by the present administration. Dr. Steinmetz freely criticised the hjs oU gton He wag on the canal 1 you know Atout Kord he said; Pord con sider one of the greatest Americans, He would make an excellent man in the White House and I think would go i down in history as among the great Presidents." 1 "Who do you think were the great Presidents?" he was asked. "Washington. Lincoln and Roosevelt.

"What do you think of Mr. Roose- velt now?" ROOSEVELT "OVERSHOOTING." "Mr." Roosevelt was an able man in the White House and I admired him greatly, but now, he is overshooting himself." Speaking on the probability of peace. Dr. Steinmetz said: "Although it does not seem at all near, as all the belligerents are as widely separated now as at the beginning of the war. still I think that peace will come within a year.

Talking peace reminds us, of course, of the Ford pilgrimage. If Mr. Ford had succeeded he would be called the greatest living American, because he did not he has been subject to ridicule. Still, there is no person who can say that Mr, Ford has failed absolutely, because the peace talk that we hear now has probably been started by Mr. Ford.

"Tou also hear talk about the United States becoming Involved in the war. There is not a chance unless war is wanted badly by the people. That is where I think Mr. Roosevelt is mis taken. 1 aon tnink that the war this country would be crippled finan cially and after all we might not cut much of a factor; in fact we wouldn't be a factor at all." Dr.

Steinmetz evaded questions as to his stand on preparedness, saying it was a "very broad" question. Just 2 Days More. Sale of Campbells' recent purchase of lection oi utai ur ami orown au- cies.

Once upon a time there lived a little girl who was very beautiful and she ha dtwo step-sisters who were very cruel to her. Because she was obliged to sit among the cinders the lovely girl was called 'Cinderella." Do you remember a story told you in the long ago and which began very much after that fashion? A very great number of grownups and little people must know it very well, for last winter when the Ringling Brothers decided to stage a big. new spectacle, they set about canvassing widely sep- TWO SHARPSBURG COPS RESIGN; REFUSE TO WORK WITH FORSYTHE Rather than work with Chief of Police E. M. Forsythe, whom the Sharps-burg borough council decided to recognize at the behest of Burgess William Tibby, Officers John Schrenk and Joseph Vogel today resigned as members of the police force.

Council had elected William C. Murphy the chief of the police department, but Burgess Tibby, who has the assigning of the police to their duties, relegated Murphy to an obscure beat and assigned Forsythe to perform the duties of chief. Considerable friction resulted with the result that 10 days ago the burgess appeared before council and pleading that the interests of the people of the hnrmiEh were suffering, asked that for the sake of efficiency in the department Murphy be deposed as chief and Forsythe appointed in his place. Three of the councilmen opposing the ap- ointment of Forsythe as tne cmei, td in favor of it. Follow ing the action of council, Murphy resigned from the department.

The citizens of the borough are up in arms over the disorganized condition of the police department. It is hinted that unless Forsythe is removed as head of the department there will be additional resignations. A special meeting of council will be held tomorrow at which time an effort will be made to fill the vacancies on the force There have been three resignations" in the 10 days that Forsythe has been chief.
