Merritt Addresses Meeting of Rotary Club "The American Way in Transportation," was the subject of an address by K. Merritt, traffic agent of Railway Express Agency, Philadelphia, to the Rotary Club at their meeting at the Alexander yesterday. In a fast moving narrative Mr. Merritt described the development of the express business from its modest beginning between New York and Boston in 1839 to the swift air sxpress service which delivers packages on the West Coast the second even-ing after departure from New "American life is fast moving," said Mr. Merritt "and transporta- ion must necessarily be geared to meet the demands of our people.

Styles must be introduced on the West Coast a few days after their appearance in tho center of fashion. Fresh fruits and vegetables must be quickly distributed to all parts of the country and transportation fac- lities are always on hand to move hem. The express business is one of the transportation agencies that las grown and kept pace with the change from the 23 miles of railroad in the country in 1830 to the 260,000 miles of railroad of today." The speaker related many interesting historical facts concerning the evolution of transportation and also nformed his hearer that express transportation is unique as being only used in the United States. Announcement was made that the 3lub would entertain the Rotary at a Thanksgiving luncheon at the Alexander next Wednesday at which Past District Governor Ignatius Bjorles of Frederick would be speaker and guest of honor, as also Mrs. Bjorlee.

Visitors were: Harry D. Carson, Philadelphia Daniel Heefner, Mercersburg; R. M. Huber, Chambersburg; H. D.

Franklin St. Serv ice Workers of Zion Reforme Church. Adv. FLOYD SHERMAN, TENOR State winner in the Atwater-Ken Audition and who sings tonigh over WEAF from 11 to 12 o'cloc in the- District Audition, wrote th following extract in a letter Charles H. Roderick, his voic teacher in "You have -been a constant inspiration for me and have surely opened the way for any success I have or hope to attain.

Without your excellent training I could not have gotten one of the best church positions in New York City." PHILANTHROPY THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1930 WITHOUT WASTE Put the Welfare Federation Cam- aign "over the top." TO EXPERTS ON (Continued From Page 1) iroblem is not alone one of physical health, but of mental, emotional, piritual health. "These are the problems that I harge you to answer. This task hat you come, here to. perform has never -been done before. These roblems are not 'easily answered, hey reach the yery root of our na- ional life.

We need to meet them quar'ely arid to accuse ourselves as rankly as possible, to see all the mplicatioris that trail in our wake, and to place the blame where it lies nd set. resolutely to attack it." The chief executive told the con- erence that the problem falls into hree groups: first, the protection and stimulation of. the normal child; second, aid to the physically defec- ice and handicapped child; third, he problems of the delinquent child. -that of- 45,000,000 children; 10,000,000 are deficient with more.than SO percent of these not eceiving the necessary attention, the president said: "We must get to the cause of their handicaps from beginnings of their lives; we must' not leave one of them uncared for." Mr. Hoover said that in dealing with the complex problems of the delinquent child, "we need to turn the methods of inquiry from the punishment, of delinquency to the causes of delinquency." He added that, "it not the delinquent child that is at the bar of judgment, but society itself." Industry must not rob our children of theip rightful heritage, the president said, asserting that "any labor which stunts growth, either physical or mental, that limits education, that deprives children of the right of comradeship, of joy and play, is sapping the next generation." "In the last halt century we have herded 50,000,000 more human beings into towns and cities where the whole setting is new to the race," the president said.

"We have created highly congested areas with a thousand changes resulting in -the swift transition from a rural and agrarian people to an urban, industrial nation. Perhaps the widest range of difficulties with which we are dealing in the betterment of children grows out of their crowding into cities." "Problems of sanitation and public health loom in every direction. Delinquency increases with congestion. Overcrowding produces disease and contagion. The child's natural play place is taken from him.

His mind is stunted by the lack of imaginative surroundings and lack of contact with the fields, streams, 'trees, and birds. Home life becomes more difficult. Cheerless homes produce morbid minds. Our growth of town life unendingly imposes such problems as milk and food supplies, for we have shifted these children from at diet of ten thousand years ing. "Nor is the problem one solely of the city child.

We have grave responsibilities to the rural child. Adequate expert service should be as available to him from maternity to maturity." CHEERS GREET REPORTS MADE BY THE TEAMS them the workers could feel certain success would be their's if they kept up the good work, "ine Showing The best report came from John Squires, in "charge of the Industrial Section, which yesterday turned in a sum amounting to $3,188.70, the largest amount for the "day: of the funds came from unexpected sources and some of the captains stated that they had additional' prospects who would help to swell their totals. The Executive Committee of the Federation working as a team reported $1,440.00, the second largest amount of the day while Women's Club, No. 2, with. $435, turned in the third largest amount.

Some remarkably fine work is being done in the Industrial Section where employes of many of the large plants and organizations in the city are giving 100 percent, with still many other to be heard from. One of those to report for the first time last evening was the -Bounty teams which turned in $500 to date. This report was made by Miss Alice Edmonds. Rumors Unfounded It was stated last evening that several rumors were in circulation yesterday. One of them is that workers for the Federation are receiving a commission for getting contributions.

This rumor in particular the Federation wishes to positively deny. It requests all persons who hear of rumors to call the Federation, Phone 570 and the truth of the situation will be explained.
