if (0 Altoona Tribune, Saturday Morning, November 4, 1939 DEATHS Tour of Townsend Plan Advocates Likely to Influence 1940 Campaign Opening of Seventh Avenue Included in Gty-WPA Work THE WORLD AND ITS PEOPLE ByR.W.B. MEN, declares Mrs. Edith Manning Morrow, are good for nothing. One infers that if Mrs. Morrow were not averse to profanity, she could have placed a great deal more emphasis upon her statement.

perhaps we are doing her an injustice we fell as we read it she was restraining the words of undue emphasis with difficulty. illl 4 Knights to Observe 25th Anniversary St. Leo's branch, No. 231 Knights of George, will observe the twenty-fifth anniversary of its founding at a special program arranged for tomorrow morning, a corporate communion and a breakfast opening the celebration. Rev.

John E. O'Connor, pastor of St. Leo's church, Twelfth avenue and Twentieth street, will officiate at the 8 o'clock communion mass and act as toastmaster for the breakfast John Eibeck, of Pittsburg, will be the guest speaker. Thirty-five members of the branch will receive 25-year buttons with Adam Weidman making the presentations. Members of the local branch and their wives as well as officers of other branches in the district have been invited to attend the mass and breakfast? There are 12 branches of the order in the area, including Tyrone, Bellwood, Huntingdon and Hollidaysburg.

Altoona boasts of eight branches. Fifteen presidents have served the local branch since it was or have great significance In the 1940 campaign. The tour, designed primarily to build up tremendous Townsend plan support throughout the state, will be the most concentrated organization campaign ever undertaken in any state by the Townsend leaders, according to W. Jeffery, vice president of the Townsend organization, who has assisted in plans for the drive. Dr.

Townsend, who spent two days with Senator Downey planning. the tour, termed the trip "a positive step in the direction of national pension victory in 1940." Jeffery admitted- that the tour would be of tremendous indirect political significance. "This is purely an organization building and educational campaign, however," he said. "We believe that the powerful organization, resulting from the concentrated campaign, will give the pension vote in Pennsylvania the balance of power in almost all congressional districts." Jeffery indicated that the Pennsylvania pension vote also may be the deciding factor in the senatorial election in the state as well. It was pointed out that Senator Joseph Guffey is up for re-election Inclusion of the opening of Seventh avenue through what formerly was the property of the old Altoona Iron company to Thirty-first street In the blanket city WPA program was announced yesterday by Councilman Frank M.

Hunter, director of the department of streets and public improvements, at a conference held yesterday morning in city hall. While the project will not bo completed in its entirety under the million dollar WPA project, the action will bring about a plan which has been hanging fire for 'years. An early start is expected to bo made' on the project which, involves the removal of the culvert abutment on Sixth avenue, now no longer necessary because of the covering of the stream several years ago, to afford a better entrance to Thirty-first street from Sixth avenue. In his explanation to council yesterday morning, Councilman Hunter said the stream along Thirty-first street must be checked and the plant of the Ivory Lumber Building company relocated. For the latter, the city will deed a portion of grounj to the lumber company and in return will receive a deed to a portion of land so that Seventh avenue will not divide the company's ground as it does now.

The iron company plot needed by the city will be deeded to the municipality by the present owners. The city solicitor will present it to council for approval soon. It is planned to pave a block of Seventh avenue jetween Thirtieth and Thirty-first street with amiesite on a broken stone base under the WPA setup. The Economy Grocers association is expected to ask next spring for the paving of Thirtieth street between Seventh and Eighth avenues along its recently completed warehouse. With the opening of Seventh avenue to Thirty-first street, city authorities can extend the one-way traiiic plan on Sixth and Seventh avenue from Union avenue if the movement warrants it.

Mill run will be covered for a distance of 1,50 feet to accomplish the plans. This work, together with some walling of the stream, will be done later. 'Give Me Liberty or Put Me On the a verick Cries 58 Building Groups Named In Cost Probe PITTSBURG, Nov. 3. (iP) Forty-five persons, 12 electrical contracting firms and an electrical contractors association were indicted today for conspiracy to defraud the government as a federal grand jury completed the first phase of its investigation into building costs in Pittsburg.

M. Neil Andrews, special assistant, U. S. attorney, said the Indictments were "just the beginning" of the inquiry, launched Oct. 11 in conjunction with the federal government's nation-wide anti-trust inquiry.

Federal agencies have said building costs here were the second highest in the nation. The defendants were charged in the indictment with 'conspiring on bids for public works "to the mutual profit of the defendants, the injury and damage of the United States, the selfish destruction of the public interest and the impair-mcnt of governmental functions." Included among the defendants were three officials of the Pittsburg local of the AFL's brotherhood of international electrical workers. The indictment declared the union had promised to "police" the building industry to make certain that collusive bidding agreements between contractors were carried out. Acting U. S.

Attorney George Mashank said the indictments covered fraud that had cost the government as much as $500,000. The jury said the electrical contractors often prepared separate oids ana men met. in me eonuac- tors association offices, compared bids, set an average bid and agreed to permit the contractor whose bid was nearest the average to submit the bid as low bid. Other bids were revised upward. Eighty-four public works projects in Allegheny county which had Ecn financed with federal funds, were listed as being involved in the bidding.

They included the Homestead high level bridge, the Highland park bridge and the Allegheny county home improvement, which involved a federal grant of The jury was recessed after the indictments were returned but will be recalled "at the proper time," Federal Judge E. P. Schoonmaker announced. Bids Received for Blair Road Project The state highway department today received 92 contractor's bids on 10 projects involving the improvement of 10.51 miles of road and the construction of six bridges. Low bidders for the two Blair county projects include: Rager and Company of Burnham, for the construction of .07 of a mile of macadam and an I beam bridge on route 07013 in Woodbury towship.

Guy S. Tippery Republican Nominee For CITY COUNCIL Respectfully solicits your support and influence OF course, Mrs. Morrow was addressing a women's in San that it matters particularly where it was. Women's clubs, probably, are much alike in San Fran. Cisco, Sauk- Center and Irons-ville.

But maybe I shouldn't get that. MY, oh it takes me back to the days of the suffragettes. Im told some mighty mean things were said about the men in those days. I can even remember the misdirected chance remark, after reading the paper, to a certain young lady, aged about 12. Said she, very uppity.

"You don't need i to laugh at what Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt says. She means the men." So, I pulled my Boy Scout hat down over my ears and determined that ever after that I would dislike woman suffrage and Mrs. Catt. AND now, here I read about Mrs.

Morrow. The' men, I suspect, won't be able to laugh quite so heartily at Mrs. Morrow. Some of them might remember that Mrs. Catt won.

And then, again, Mrs. Morrow lias some quite different i ideas. In fact, drastically different. "THE world," said Mrs. Morrow, "would be better off if it were run by women.

It might even be better off," she went on, with a feeble attempt at humor, "if there, were no men. Or." she admitted reluctantly, "very few of them, SCIENCE is near to proof, she said, alarmingly, that men no longer may be needed in the perpetuation of the race. Rabbits, she says, have been born in the laboratory without benefit of fathers. Tfst tube births have been accomplished in the animal woild and are reported near in humans. "SO," she went on, and I'll bet she leered, "I hope it may fall to our lot to see the old man-made axiom, 'It's a man-made trampled underfoot, and the women, the real creators of mankind, given the men's place as the rulers of the -orld.

"MEN tell one another how they are, how much they believe in courage, square-dealing, how they would run things 'f they got a chance. But just give them a chance! Just you give them a ftance, and see what they do." (I didn't care particularly for her repetition at this point.) "Why, I'll tell you what they do! They just play the game as crooked as ATTENTION!

He has not indicated his stand on the Townsend plan. The tour is scheduled to open about Nov. 15 and to continue until mid-December. Speaking dates are being arranged in every important town in Pennsylvania.

Altoona is on the list of cities to be visited by the speakers. CHICAGO, Nov. 3 (IP) With the cry ''give me liberty or put me on the WPA," Mayor Maury Maverick 0f San Antonio, propounded a bill of rights for harried American mayors. In a prepared address before the American Municipal association, he outlined these articles of his Magna Carta: 1. "The people shall realize that if they never let the mayor work, the mayor can never do any.

2. "That if no work is done, the government will surely cease. 3. "The people shall make or establish no habit, custom or practice which will prohibit a mayor from the right to petition the people not to take 'his whole salary in contributions, to prevent him from peaceful assemblage with his family and to stay home1 on week ends. 4.

"The right of the mayor to enjoy social occasions and to go shopping without having his whole time ruined by being jabbed in the ribs with constant requests for private conferences and jobs shall not be infringed. 5. "The mayor shall not be seized, pawed, pulled by the lapels nor put in jeopardy of life and limb by being slapped on the back. 6. "No mayor shall meet any train whatsoever, no matter if the visitor is a great movie actor who might reward the mayor with an autograph; nor shall he meet even great prize fighters or golfers, but will stay at the city hall and do his work." Maverick also urged urban executives to "tell labor leaders that you will protect their civil liberties but that is all" and advised them to "fear not Rotarians, Ki-wanians and the Sons of the American Revolution." He suggested, furthermore: "The next man who slaps you on the back, sock him back." Negro Educator Given WPA Appointment HARRISBURG, Nov.

Arrangements were nearing completion here this week by the two leading advocates of more liberal old age pensions. Dr. Francis E. Townsend and Senator Sheridan Downey (D) of California, for an extensive speaking tour through Pennsylvania, which is likely to Increase Noted In State Coal Production PITTSBURG, Nov. 3 (P) King Coal appeared headed for a new peak on the recovery movement in Pennsylvania today as esti mates disclosea a possible 20 per cent increase in bituminous pro duction for the first 10 months of the year.

Spurred by war-time impetus, coal output in October jumped 25 per cent above September to reach the highest mark since March, 1937, on the basis of tentative fig ures compiled by the Bureau of Business Research 0f the Univer sity of Pittsburg. The 1939 October production was 40 per cent greater than October, 1938, the bureau said. The bureau estimated Pennsylvania soft coal production for October at 11,000,000 tons, as compared with 8.800,000 in September. In March, 1937, the output -was 13.000,000 tons. The western Pennsylvania coal trafflo bureau gaid its figures showed a 17 per cent increase in the western part of the state for the first eight months of the year despite the April soft coal "holiday." Output from January through August hit 31,360,652 tons in western Pennsylvania as compared with 26,796,164 tons in the same period last year, Total western output in '38 was 46,315,568 tons.

Coal circles predicted the 1939 production would hold this advantage and possibly increase it to greatly surpass the tonnage mined last year. The total production last year for the state soft coal mines which includes central Pennsylvania pits, was 76,881.944 tons. Coastwise Shipping Hit By Strike NEW YORK, Nov. 3 (IP) Striking AFL longshoremen caused the cancellation today of at least six scheduled coastwise sailings, while their leader sharply rejected mediation by the National Maritime Labor Board, accusing one of its members of bias for "the Communistic dual longshoremen organization of the Pacific coast." Joseph P. Ryan, president of the International Longshoremen's association, thus answered the offer of Robert W.

Bruere, the board's chairman, to assign Conciliator James L. Bernard to the controversy: "We do not need the services of Mediator Bernard. We can settle this with our employers." In a subsequent statement to re porters, Ryan added: "As far as our organization is concerned, we have no lonflden In the Maritime Labor Board while Dr. Louis Block is a member of it, as we know that his sympathies are with, the Communistic dual longshoremen orga- ization on the Pacific coast. "We would like to see the Maritime Labor Board abolished.

In addition to the board, we will have nothing to do with Bernard as a mediator." The reference to the western 'Mual organization" was to the CIO's International Longshoremen anl Warehousemen Association, headed by Harry Bridges, whom Ryan frequently "lias characterized as a "Communist."
