SOCIETY'S' Summer Playground THURSDAY EVENING, Under the Dome of the Capitol The State Department of Agriculture says that statistics show commercial canning is carried on in the United States on so large a scale as to provide annually about 150 cans of fruits and vegetables for each family.

It was calculated that 000,000 cans of farm products raised mainly in other states are consumed annually in Pennsylvania. The department says the canning business is a vast industry and one which should provide a bigger outlet for Pennsylvania grown agricultural products. The State Bureau of Markets, in co-operation with State purchasing agents and the Federal government, is attempting to work out effective plan for grading canned products be generally adopted in Pennsylvania. The Department of that the Pennsylvania farmer, the reputable canner and the housewife who desires to make every dollar go just as far as possible deserve a break in this "tin can" age. Dr.

James N. Rule, Superintendent of Public Instruction, today commended Pennsylvania's 61,000 public school teachers for their faithful service in the 1933-34 school year.

SIDNEY BANKS, Managing Director CAVALIER HOTEL and BEACH CLUB VIRGINIA BEACH VIRGINIA PARKWAY BYPASS SOON COMPLETED Important Highway Link May Be Opened in Two Weeks Harrisburg's new Parkway Bypass is expected to be opened to the public within the next two weeks, the concrete work having been completed, leaving only the laying of the middle lane of macadam from Twentieth and Herr streets to Camjeron street. S. W. Shoemaker and Son, the local firm which holds the State contract at $148,784 for construction of bypass, announced that the macadam work should be completed and the highway opened to the public by the end of the month.

The new highway will be virtually the last link of roads connecting Harrisburg's parks. It will extend a little more than two miles from the intersection of Herr street and the Jonestown road in Penbrook along Herr street to Twentieth street and thence north of the State Arsenal and the Harrisburg Military Post across the grounds of the Harrisburg State Hospital to point on Cameron street 300 feet south of Maclay. From the intersection of the Jonestown road and Herr street in Penbrook to Twentieth and Herr streets in Harrisburg the roadway will be a twenty-foot strip concrete. From Twentieth and Herr to Cameron street the roadway will be thirty feet wide, comprising two outside lanes of concrete each ten feet wide and ten-foot middle lane of macadam. When completed, the bypass will provide a relief artery for east, west and northbound traffic on the William Penn Highway (Jonestown road) and will provide another access to and egress from the State Farm Show Building.

Federal aid money for highway construction is being used entirely for construction of the bypass. W. T. OMWAKE, 78, IS FATALLY STRICKEN, PROMINENT LAWYER Waynesboro, July T. Omwake, 78, retired attorney of Waynesboro, died in the Waynesboro Hospital following a lingering illness.

SPORTSMEN TO MEET Shippensburg, July local sportsmen will attend the special "get -together at Caledonia tomorrow afternoon, which the Pennsylvania Fish and Game Commission is sponsoring order to organize various sportsmen's organizations in this section into one group. Speakers for the occasion include Kenneth A. Reed, a member of the State Fish Commission and editor of the fishing department of the National Sportsmen, and O. M.

Deibler, secretary of the State Fish Commission. Politics in (Contiuued From Editorial Page) tax to levy to provide relief funds, to find a tax which may be raised as an emergency measure to provide funds, or to take such emergency steps as will provide sufficient relief funds. The tax method is almost out of the question because of political and economic circumstances. The motor fund balance on Saturday was $18,710,999. A loan of ten or twelve million dollars from the motor fund to the general could be made and the Legislature could meet in special session for one week, just long enough to appropriate the borrowed money for relief and to appropriate any liquor store profits to go toward repayment of the loan from the motor fund the end of the year or the biennium.

The loan must be repaid by next May 31. Washington has put the State Administration on the spot and the State officials have sixty days in which to act. A special session of the Legislature seems to be the only solution at this time. And it is generally expected the session will be called for July 30 or August 6.
