attended Nazi party rallies, but the court blocked his efforts to testify that the atti tude of foreign nations was a fac tor in Germany's acceptance of the Hitler regime. Attempts to insert this testimony provoked a vigorous protest from Chief U. S. Prosecutor Robert H. Jackson, who contended that "for eigners are not on trial here, ana if some of them were deceived by a regime which used Schacht for window dressing, that is beside the point." Schacht's counsel, tall, white maned Dr.

Rudolf Dix, retorted that the attitude of foreigners and its effect on German opposition to Hitler was of the utmost im portance and I will fight for this Diece of evidence as I see it." After a short deliberation witn his colleagues, Lord Justice Lawrence, president of the Tribunal, ruled that "an investigation of such facts is a waste of time and irrele vant." Schacht, in his second day of direct testimony, continued an ela' boration of his main defense that "Hitler deceived the world, de ceived Germany and me." Asked by counsel to explain the prosecution's charge that he sat in the front row at Nazi party rallies, Schacht said he only attended the earlier ones as a cabinet minister and added: "foreign ambassadors were there too except the Amer ican and Russian and also osten tatiously in the front row. It was when Schacht attempted to "explain the presence of the diplomatic corps at this purely party function" that Jackson first objected. Regarding his financing of Nazi rearmament as president of the Reichsbank. Schacht said "I did this to obtain for Germany equal rights, a position I still think right. When the other powers broke their promises to disarm, Germany had no alternative but to rearm to gain equality."

During his long years of em ployment, Keller worked in ten different, departments of the company and at every station on the local division including four engine houses and three machine shops. Keller saw a large power plant and other buildings of the company erected, worn out and torn down.

Throughout his years of service Keller was called upon to do spe cial work for the company and he also found time to participate in YMC A drives, stock and sav ings fund drives, Ladies' Aid work, picnics and other activities. Keller said today that he plans to do no work in the future other than to help others.

Better Safe Than Sorry City Undertakes Rose Grafting Experiments The City Park Department has undertaken a rose grafting ex periment in the municipal gar dens at Third and Radnor streets, with the cooperation of C.

Bron, 3107 Hillside Road, who hag adopted rose budding as a hobby, Director Robert C. Leitner re ported today. A bed eight by 45 feet just south of the marker in the gardens has been planted with 108 japonica stalks, Leitner explained. They will be allowed to grow until September, when Brown will bud them with grafts taken from the Crimson Glory rose. While the practice is not new among commercial growers, Leitner said he believes Harrisburg is the first municipality to try it.

Brown volunteered to do the work to demonstrate that the sturdy root structure developed through budding will produce roses surpassing those on transplanted plants. But, Leitner added, the evidence will not be forthcoming until next summer. Reed Twp. Schools Get $361 From State Auditor General G. Harold Wagner today approved payment of $361 to Reed Township School District in Dauphin county, from appropriations authorized by the Legislature for high school The first minimum wage law was the New Zealand industrial conciliation and arbitration act of 1894.

His headlights let him see 150 feet ahead but it took 200 feet to stop! So he and that man changing the tire never had a chance! Remember, the fatal accident rate per mile of travel at night is almost 3 times greater than in daytime. Do you make allowance for darkness? I driva fader than I should in darknatt.

How many chances do you take every day? 'fit ii jj 6SJ I "jay walk" whan I'm in a hurry. I'm always careful crossing streets. Do you dash across in mid block? Think traffic lights are for motorists only? Then you may be one of the 20,000 pedestrians killed or injured this coming month. Sure, you've jay walked hundreds of times but is the risk worth it? I cross when the signal is flashing. I never lake a chance with a train.

Do you ignore signals if the train seems far away? Do you cross without clear vision both ways? Right now make it your rule never to disregard a signal! And you'll never meet the sudden terror that killed or injured 16 persons each day last year! Herritbwrt; 7 I put off expensive repairs on my car. I always keep my car in top condition.
