The speaker of the "evening was Dr. Leonard P. Fox, research director of the State Chamber of Commerce. Dr. Fox stated that politics is the guidance and conduct of the government established by the Constitution.

The latter merely sets up a framework of government. "With out the activities of men and women," he said, "the Constitution would be cold and inert, like a steam engine without steam. Wherefore, governments rather depend upon men, than men upon the governments. In no field of activity are desired results of greater importance than in politics." Dr. Fox pointed out how "women with their fresh political prospective and realism of thought could keep the party responsive to modern needs and popular wishes.

The focus of politics must shift from the outworn political formula, mechanically applied to a human basis; if our age is to witness constructive democratic reform, the time has come' to start a complementary movement to bring the people back to the government. The newer agencies of direct gov ernment are of no avail if the people Will not use them." Mrs. Charles F. Etter, president of the Dauphin County Council of Republican Women, presided at the meeting. Reports from the chairman of the standing committees were received.

Mrs. Leah Cobb Marion, president of the Pennsylvania State Council, invited the council women to headquarters. A meeting. of the executive board followed the meeting at which work for the summer was outlined. The date and place of next meeting will be announced later.

Last October, orders were placed with the company's shops at Altoona to substitute 70 ton trucks for 50 ton trucks under 10,188 cars then operating in the coal service! To date there have been 6,173 cars turned out of the shops with this work completed, their carrying capacity being increased 31 per cent, each. The additional capacity thus, obtained is, naturally, of greater advantage from an operating standpoint than if it had been secured by placing additional cars in service, as there is no corresponding increase in number of car units to be handled in trains.

Increase Capacity When these cars were built, 70 ton capacity bodies' were placed on 60 ton trucks and the load restricted, because of insufficient strength of certain bridges on branch freight lines to carry the heavier loads. The correction of these conditions now makes possible the operation of the heavy equipment, loaded to full capacity. It is expected that work will be completed on all the cars by fall. When this is accomplished, the coal carrying capacity of the system will have been increased by 190,516 tons, which is equivalent to placing 3,810 new cars in the service.
