On the 20th of June, 1860, when John Fritz, then Superintendent the Cambria Iron Company at Johnstown, was appointed superintendent of the works of the old Bethlehem Iron Company, he brought many of the workmen from that section with him. He was one of the first to come to Bethlehem where he rolled and puddied iron and later aided in the manufacture of ordinance as a melter when the company made these products for the government.

Until some years ago, the deceased was employed in the Bethlehem Steel Company plant, successors of the old iron company, and aided in the making of the steel which eventually used for armor and guns. There were few better authorities on the early history of the South Side than "Mike" Burkhardt as he was familiarily known. He could recall a majority of the original settlers by first name. Until stricken with the illness that caused his death he could be seen daily carh riage riding around town and country. When others took to the automobile Mr.

Burkhardt remained true to his trusty equine. He married Anna C. Dimmick in the old German Catholic Church rectory on Union Street, now in the S.S. Simon and Jude parish which has its new rectory on West Broad Street. The union was blessed with fourteen children, eight, of whom with the mother preceded him to the grave.

James Ferdinand, Minnie, Catherine and Gertrude; also 27 grandchildren and four great grandchildren and a brother, John Burkhardt, of Johnstown. Deceased a member of St. Joseph's Beneficial Society.

SHIP BOARD STRIFE NEARS TERMINATION (Continued from Page One) has almost from the first found itself at odds with Mr. Palmer on policies of administration. These involved terms for sale of ships and lines, the number of ships which should be kept in operation and the relative merits of expanding operations at the expense of economy.

In the background has stood an apparent feeling of some commissioners that in delegating powers to the fleet corporation the board had in effect abdicated the functions conferred upon it by law. Indicating his direct interest, Mr. Coolidge today summoned Commissioners Plummer and Hill to the White House to obtain their views. Previously he had discussed the situation with Chairman O'Connor of the board. On his behalf it was later stated that the chief executive had reached no conclusions but was concerned in the administration of the $350,000,000 government property for, which the board under the law is trustee and had the one desire to aid in the solution of the board's difficulties.
