....10.12 10.29 4.10 4.20 THURSDAY, JUNE 26, 1919 "Atlantic City All The Time" NATURE LOVING AT A DISCOUNT. The affection for the shy, more or less, things of the wild wood is likely to be somewhat curdled by a too frequent contact with said things. We know a city man who became a farmer. A farmer in a mountain district where the grouse and the chipmunk and the bigger squirrel and the chieken hawk and the screech owl flourished. And for a time he was all enthusiasm over his close touch with nature.

Especially was he proud of his chipmunks; cute, striped, little frisky ins fellows, Kitenen who and had, fear who invaded his, shed. kept company unfailing frolic. In time he wondered why the bottom of his scratch feed sacks so quickly merged with the top. One day he endeavored to put on a boot, that had been. standing on the back porch for a week, and, inside, he found two quarts of chicken feed.

He did a bit of figuring like this: If one chipmunk, in one week, in one of a dozen hiding places, can stow away four pounds of feed, worth four and a quarter cents a pound, what will forty chipmunks do in forty weeks? The answer appeared to be that nature might be cute and all that, but she was too durn expensive for his income, so he secured a divorce, without alimony, and now chipmunks 110 longer frolic in his boots, nor do moles and shrews make of his garden a camping ground. Nature, you understand, is a wonderful institution, and we are not saying a thing against her; but the old dame has a lot of children that have expensive tastes, and these who become wedded to her do well to remember this, and regard with suspicion a lot of hungry guests that will come to visit their respected relation. LABOR KNOWS. It shocked the boudoir Bolsheviks who were calling the spirits of proletarian revolt from the vasty deeps of wartroubled waters to be told by the representatives of organized workers in convention here, "Clear out, we want nothing of you." A working -class revolt witbout the workers, a dictatorship of the proletariat without proletarians is truly a hard play to produce. Union labor knows how gains are made and held.

It has made and held very many. It has added now a jot and then a title to the charter of labor's rights. It has fought and won and lost and returned to fight again, with infinite sacrifice and endless pains to achieve the smallest gains. Labor has also tried the sudden leap and spent months and years after nursing its bruises and recovering lost ground. It knows the great effort of organizing even for an immedlate victory.

It knows the infinite impossibilities in the way of rallying labor, in a democratie country, for forcible upheaval. It knows the impossibility of reorganizing the crushing chaos that follows such an upheaval. Knowing, labor will have none of these tactics. These tactics have been tried. They were tried in 1887 and again in 1894.

The I. W. W. tries them constantly, and organized labor's heaviest indietment of the I. W.

W. is.its of futility. It cannot point to a single industry and say, "Because us hours are shorter, wages higher, labor is wielding greater power and is organized and disciplined to hold and utilize its Sporadic riots, "general strikes," and similar upheavals, do rarely win victories, but never organize and utilize them. These latter require long training discipline and self-control of democratic organization. Union men and women know this.

It is bred into their inner consciousness. With more radicals than ever among its delegates the convention of the American Federation of Labor gave Bolshevism the bounce with slight consideration. This is discouraging to the revolutionists of pen and platform who have "seen the Soviet in action," and are anxious to become Trotszkys and dictate in the name of the proletariat. Labor knows its disciplined ranks are sweeping steadily on from victory to victory. Knowing this it does not listen to those who preach the possibilities of mobs and ghost dances.

ha Bride I REALIZE WE ARE SPARED BOMB BECAUSE OF CHRYS' WEDDING--WE RENT HOUSE ON COAST The bombing outrage which im-1 perilled so many lives and destroyed one or more of the bomb-throwers, worried Daddy Lorimer considerably. He admitted to us that he was greatly concerned about the safety of his deaones. He was troubled, also, about some art treasures at home, and he wired the caretaker of the house to make thorough investigation or premises. Chrys, the practical, suggested th we had been conspicuou rich by the war that our turn would come and we ought to prepare for the worst--for a funeral in the family instead of her wedding. Her sarcastic speech worked upon my imigination.

We had all wonder. ed why Daddy Lorimer never had been numbered among those threatened. So far in the "propaganda deed" Daddy never had received a single menacing letter. My 1 imagination, which is forever harassing me with impossibilities as usual informed me in a single flash WHY we were not to have an expli5ion on our own front door step. Because we were going to have the wedding, we were spared a funeral! We were bound, through Chrystobel and her vast fortune--to the master mind of the red terror! We were protected by the head Bolshevik himself: I almost cried aloud in my horror! That shame must never befall us! I rushed to Daddy Lorimer with my plan to move to the shore.

Our pres. ence there would cork up Certeis and render him futile for a time, perhaps until the long delayed but inevitable moment of his disgrace should arrive. I interrupted Daddy in the midst of some violent raving about the need of a nation-wide clean-up of Bolsheviki, and more stringent immigration laws. URGES FEDERAL BUREAU OF REAL ESTATE; WOULD SAVE U.S. GREAT WASTE (Continued From Page One) He declared: "The realtors, in their parments ed the Government during varied experiences in the different detheir war service, became thoroughly tamiliar with the prevaling obsolete, cobungling red-tape ernment real estate business.

Our experience taught us to believe that a period of greater efficiency and a pronounced economie gain would ensue coincident with the establishment in Washington of a Department of Real Estate, presided over by a competent Secretary of Real Estate, who shoud have control of all the purchasing, leasing and management of all real property owned by the United witch contry is probably the greatest land owner in the world. "The ramifications of the activities of the United States with regard to real estate are so great that they effeet every city and town in the country. During the latter part of last year, the legislative committee of your association drew up law to create such a department, placing ot under the control of the President of the United States, that he might exercise executive discretion as to wheer this division woud best fit. We found competition existsing. not only among the different Government Departments seeking to lease and purchase lands, but competition within the departments themselves.

"The War Department had apparently developed little coordination, and until May, 1918, had attempted 110 real estate organizations, but it had some thirteen or more different agencies, in charge of commissioned ceers, for spending the hundreds of mil ions of dollars required for acquiring real estate and buildings sary to carry on its enormously heavy work Both the War and Navy Departments seemed devoid of expert appraisers and trained negotiators. contend Chat the taxpayers had the right to demand expert service in spending such vast sums that the real estate business is no less a profession than is fighting--that the realtor can become an army officer only through ability, backed by tedlous devotion to study and training and that the evolution of an army officer into a duly qualified realty appraised and no rotiator is perfectly war revealed a startling analogous. waste in many places and the final remedy in every case was to concentrate and place in the hands of experts the important work of the Government. I sincerely believe the creation of the realty department will mean an economic gain aggregating millions of dollars annually the employment of intelligent, experienced realtors, eliminating political parasites and introcducing modern, approved business methods for managing the Government's President Garland called the present methods of placing the burden of taxation, 011 He real said estate later a "The "national time is not remote when national legislation must be invoked to defeat this fast growing menace. States, counties and cities are either afraid or power- less to take an initiative step against a well organized and determined oppression.

Is this because those who should, and do not. pay a fair and just proportion of the taxes, are too powerfully intrenched. "The Real Estate Board of New York in a bulletin it has just issued, declares that 95 per cent of the chtire cost of the local Government of New York city, was paid by the real estate owners. out of the income from six billions of dollars worth of improved real estate.

The committee will take a vote on the proposal just before the bill is formally reported tomorrow. The draft of the bill is now complete except in this regard. The separation motion was made by Rep. Walsh, of Massachusetts, who would substitute the wartime prohibtion enforcement legislation that failed in the last Congress for the part of the measure now under consideration, which effects the July 1 dry law. Should the Walsh motion prevail it would mean a much more lenient enforcement of wartime prohibition.

The original wartime enforcement act makes unlawful only the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquor, without defining what is intoxicating liquors. This would throw the whole matter back on the courts, where the beer manufacturers now have contest cases pending. The combined enforcement bill as it now stands in committee makes it unlawful to "manufacture, sell, barter, give away, transport, import, export, deliver, furnish, receive or possess any intoxicating liquor except for specified legal purposes. It also defines intoxicating liquor as any beverage containing more than one-half per cent. of alcohol.

Rep. Card, of Ohio, a member of the committee, already "has introduced the wartime prohibition measure in the House. If the committee to separate the legislation now before it 0 determined effort will be made to push through the wartime bill before July 1, but in view of the President's agsence it is believed that it is impossible to secure executive approval the law becomes operative July 1st. "Wets" on the Judiciary Committee won a short-lived victory today. By a vote of 9 to 8 they put through a motion by Rep.

Steel, of Pennsylvania, providing that each State must ratify the enforcement legislation exceut as it affects interstate commerce and wartime prohibition before it becomes effective in the respective States. A reconsideration of this vote was obtained by the "Drys" on the committee and the amendment was eliminated by a vote of 10 to 7. GLASS INDUSTRY IN CONVENTION Annual Conference Between Window and Plate Glass Manufacturers Started Here Yesterday. Both the window glass and plate glass manufacturers of the United States convened here yesterday, the former at the Hotel Dennis and the latter at the Ambassador. All reports submitted at both conventions show that the export trade had greatly increased during the war because of the destruction of the foreign plants and the lack labor to man those which escaped the rigors of war.

Nine factories, controlling the output in the United States, are represented at the gathering of plate-glass manufacturers. There are 100 in attendance at the Window Glass ufacturers' Association meeting. The wage question is one of the important matters to come up for consideration at both sessions.

He died recently after a very short illness. Up to the time of his death he had always been hale and hearty and led a very active life. dependent upon the man, and is not much more scientific than the rule of thumb the old fashioned cook's recipe, which calls for a pinch of this and a lump of that.

Mr. Garind advocated the enactment of legislation for the protection professional in the form cf a license law by states and munities wheer the operators esare? comtablished, declarin gthat the craft was entitled 'to the same protection against fraud and quakery as is extended to doctors, lawyers, bankers and other professional men." WHO'S WHO Philadelphia My interruption gave Mother Lorimer a moment in which to parade her favorite fad. Dear Mother was a teacher-and a very good oneupon a time. "How few think justly of the thinking few!" "How many think they think--but never do!" she quoted softly. "It's an honorable rhyme to be sure, out it's true, nevertheless.

We must educate, educate, educate. We must teach foreign-born malcontents to 'think justly'," she murmured. "We must keep 'em OUT!" roared Daddy. "I've seen some of the foreign-born children most precocious things in our school," Mother continued in placid reminiscence. "I've known them to learn like parrots and pass their examinations like geniuses but they never got the American point of view! The school didn't go far enough or else taught the wrong subjects.

And those half-educated boys became the most dangerous egotists and revolu. tionists! We must educate them wholly, net only in American forn.s but in the true American spirit!" "And keep out those who can't, or won't, or don't learn it," Daddy shouted again. Then he turned to me with, "I'll see about that place on the coast today, little girl, I'll fix it." And he hurried New York office. And fix it he did, and at once. In the late afternoon we were whirled out to the shore to look at several houses which Daddy could get--at most exor.

(To be Continued.) justice when we consider that but 5 per cent of the entire cost of their iocal government is pail by personal property owners, out of the income from sixty billion dollars worth of personality. Personality pays one nineteenth of the tax paid by real estate although ten times more valuable.

"It is my belief that these alarming conditions exist generally throughout the United States. It is high time that an organized, movement of realLU Itore equitable distribution of taxation and assist if not compel. tax assessors to obtain a vision of other property than real estate, the responsibility for which they have apparently thus far ignored. "There must be protection against unjust and unreasonable taxation on real estate. which not only retards building development but works an equal hardship as well upon the -laborer by denying him construction employment, increasing his home rentals and discouraging him in turn from building his own home Some method must be worked out for the standardization of taxation on real estate, as between various states." With reference to housing Presi- dent Garland recommended for mortgages.

lie said: "Commercial financial needs have adequate banking facilities and the Federal Reserve Bank for rediscount. Farm loan banks provide for the financing mers of the country. But in between these two is a gap. There is at present no place where mortgage loans on real estate can be rediscounted. As a result, real estate suffers and the present reluctance to re-engage in construetion activity is due in a part to lack of financial machinery for rediscounting real estate mortgages.

When it becomes possible for the holders of good real estate. mortgages to rediscount them on a safe and reasonable basis, then the real estate business and the building business will enjoy prosperity such as never known before." Asserting that the realty game was a profession of all schools and colleges. He advocated the adoption of the name as the official designation of members of the profession because that was the name applied to them by the Government during the war. Declaring that "today finds Congress in an apparently apathetic mood so far as constructive highway legislation is concerned." President Gardland observed. is the opportune time to exploit the vast undeveloped resources of our country, enhance the value of all its territory, knit the United States into one great family neighborhood.

"Now, too, is the psychological moment to offer employment to thousands of men being discharged from the military and naval service -it is the time to stimulate business activity everywhere.

With relation to the antiquated methods of appraisals the speaker declared: "From close experiences, frankness compels me to say that the present method of appraisement is F. M. G. H.

PAIST Nearly every fair consumer of chocolates has some. more than a "sweet tooth." She has an educated thing taste for confectionery as the result of sampling different brands of chocolates, and she soon notes the difference between one brand and another. Bryn Mawr Chocolates a name well known among connoisseurs is of chocolates and the men who direct the manufacture of this delectable confection are F. M. G.

H. Paist. For a long time the Bryn Mawr candy concern was located at 821 Cherry street, but so greatly has the demand for this superior grade of candy grown that new quarters were found necessary and in consequence the at the northeast corner of American and Jefferson streets was leased. Messrs. F.

M. G. H. Paist, the president and treasurer of this enterprising concern, have always given their undivided and personal attention to the business and will continue to do so. It is such concerns as this that add to the standing of the Quaker City as a manufacturing center, the products of which manufacturers are gaining fame and favor throughout the world.

Both of Messrs. Paist are "they more than ordinary aggressiveness and believe in putting quality first and that initiative. means that these confections are made of the purest chocolate and the highest grade milk and other ingredients. Messrs. G.

H. and F. M. Paist furnish the business world with very good example of how a successful career may be developed from principles of honesty and clean-cut methods of securing and holding the trade. There is no secret in it.

The word merit embraces the whole round of activity in producing the best goods that money can buy. When a woman wants the best chocolates she is willing to pay the price, but there is a satisfaction beyond mere taste- does she know that the kitchen in which the confectionery is made is absolutely sanitary and clean? Does she know that the handling and the packing, and the freshness is all that it should be, Messrs. Paist have joined the ranks of men who make their fortunes not in limited sales and nd big profits, in small profits and unlimited sales, and they see to it but that the name Brat Mawr on a box of chocolates shall mean a standard of excellence that is beyond the average ken. Messrs. Paist visit the shore frequently and have as keen a taste for salt air as they have for chocolates that are rich and wholesome.

CHARLES C. FRASER AND DANIEL J. SULLIVAN One of the leading lights in that important field of endeavor known as the grain, flour and feed business is the firm of Fraser Sullivan, with offices vat 466 Bourse. The consumption of those commodities in Philadelphia and by way of Philadelphia makes that city an important center in this regard. It is also to be noted that the grainmen of that city have organized themselves into a cohesive and efficient body and what they do for the betterment of harbor and transportation facilities has the merit of purpose unity Messrs.

Charles C. Fraser and Daniel J. Sullivan, like most "live in the grain business are members of the Commercial Exchange and are always ready to do their bit in aiding any movement having for its purpose the progress of the grain interests and the exploitation of the Philadelphia Port. They are also members of the newly-organized Flour Club. With these gentlemen's large experience, extensive connections and fine equipment for doing business promptly, any enterprise with which they are identified may be said to have been launched wader propitious skies.

There is always a clear open field for such men and they have shown by their past achievements that their proper place is shoulder to shoulder with the other aggressive leaders who are making Philadelphia worth while to the rest of the country as the shipping center for grain. Mr. Fraser lives in the Manheim Apartments, Atlantic City, the year round and Mr. Sullivan is a frequent visitor. IMPERIAL PAINT COMPANY The Imperial Paint Company, of 1518 Sansom street, Philadelphia, is one of the most dependable paint and varnish dealers in the city.

Moreover, it will be of interest to our readers to know that there is a coating for cement and brick surfaces for interior and exterior treatment which will resist water, oils and grease. This invention is known as Impaco. The merits of this cement and brick coating are many. This water-tight varnish was produced in their laboratories after numerous tests and experiments had been made, and has been pronounced by experts to be the greatest invention in its line that has ever been made. It has been adopted by leading manufacturers, hotel proprietors and in business places where water and oil are destructive to floors and walls, and promises to become universally used wherever the best results are desired.

The demand for their goods throughout the country places the stamp of approval on their products, and it will be well for those Atlantic City firms or individuals who desire a high-grade varnish, paint or floor coating to consult the Imperial Paint Company. Mr. R. R. Perkins, the treasurer of this company, is a prominent paint expert.

Mr. Perking knows paint from A to -but he doesn't use it to camouflage the trade- -but during the war his paint was used for war purposes, hence it must be good, or the Government would have had no 115e for it. Their paint is used by the largest concerns in great quantities, but though the business which the Imperial Patat Company does is increasing in volume, they still have and always will have a keen desire to cater to the small consumer, and if you want to buy a can or a carload. Mr. Perkins will be pleased to talk business with you--but not when he comes to Atlantic City on a end jaunt.

That reminds us, it was the product of the Imperial Paint Company that was used on the new Ambassador Hotel..
