OUTLOOK APPEARS BRIGHT The local Business Men's Association is formulating its plans for a merchandising movement, which will take place during August and the early part of September. Details for the movement are now-being worked out by a committee, and it is likely a full report will be made next Tuesday evening, at which time a special meeting of the Association will be held, to discuss the situation. A meeting was held last evening, when a number of features were discussed, but final acceptance of plans was put over until next week, that certain features might be in better shape for presentation.

Local merchants believe that the time is now ripe for a movement of the kind contemplated, and they are optimistic over the outlook. The Association has been very quiet for the past few years, industrial conditions not being such as to invite success to any such undertaking. However, it is believed that the situation is such now that an effort of this character will be worth while, and that it. will be a benefit not only for the merchants, but for the general public.

Negotiations have been practically completed by the Motor Coach company for the purchase if the certificate of public convenience of the Kerr Lalchem company, which operates a bus 'lie between Allenport and Oali-iornia.

Reviews of the upper Monongahela valley, were given a real thrill yesterday morning, when it wa3 discovered that a hand of professional pickpockets, taking advantage of the crowd, were reaping a harvest from their victims. Mingling wi(h the crowd, pu'di- i ing their way through the men.

women biiil children that crowded I i i. fingered gents were relieving many of their wallets and pocket-books, flarry Galley, one of the picnickers, felt some one in his pocket and turned in time to see a stranger making his hasty departure.

M. llaught and Arnold Walsou, two members of the Firemen's committee, the suspect. By this time other picnickers discovered that they had been relieved of their money, the sums taken ranging from $25.00 to $4 06.00. Half a dozen men reported the loaa of their money.

NARROW EO DAUGHTER CONCESSIONS MADE. County Controller Thomas J. Un-i derwooil. before leaving for his 'summer vacation to be spent at Sparrow Lake. Canada, yesterday, withdrew from his position which li? took several weeks ago.

in re-1 fusing to advertise for bids for the construction of several important county bridges, authorized by the 'commissioners, and also to signing of certain road contract agreements between the county and the High-! way Department. The advertise-( meiit for bids for these bridges has already been published, and road agreements were signed by him before left, one to be signed by his chief deputy during his absence. Th" matter of the controller's stand in these matters came to the attention of the public recently when the commissioners gave out for publication a statement of tbeii side of the matter, and averring that Mr. Underwood's refusal to advertise these bridges or sign these agreements was seriously affecting the road program for this year. The State Department of Highways in letters sent the county authorities, clearly indicated that the state was not pleased with the delay on the part of this county.

The commissioners were put in an em barrassing position for the reason that thy. in appreciation of tin consideration the Highway Department had given the county in the matter of extensive aid for road work, had met every allocation oi road funds to this county. On the William Penn highway project, for which the state is pay- ins all the cost, the work had pro- gressed to the point where it. was necessary that something he done; as to the bridges the county must build on (hat mute. It was neces- sary that bids be received and con- tracts let.

at once for these bridges, The controller, in answer to the commissioners, took (lie position that he had not acted on the matters for the reason there was not sufficient funds to do the work. He called attention to the lack of funds i tin1 general account, and that, i money had been transferred from I the road account to the general account and that loans also had been made to tide business over until; the taxes came in. The commissioners replied that was not unusual at this time of the year to have to borrow money, i pending the receipt of taxes. Their contention was that in the budget for this year these matters in dis- pule had been provided for. and 'onsidered in the tax levy.

Therefore, while the money was not ac-: tually in the treasury, yet the conn- could be confident it would be there when these contracts were completed. The controller, just before he lett. met witn (tie commissioners told them he would withdraw from the position he had taken. The commissioners say no concessions were made to the controller induce him to change his mind. They have felt all along they were doing the right thing, and that the controller had no grounds for holding up these road and bridge mat-t ers.
