PINCHOT WILL FIGHT TO STOP VIOLATION OF PROHIBITION LAWS (By Associated Press) HARISBURG. Pa.. Jan. 16. Giftord Pinchot, who was inaugurated governor of Pennsylvania today, declared in his inaugural address that the policy of- the commonwealth and the chart of the new order upon which the government or this state is about to enter, is , "to drive all saloons out of Pennsylvania; to prevent and punish bootlegging; to maintain and secure good laws for the protection of working children, women and men; Ho safeguard the industries of Pennsylvania, and promote the prosperity of the , Fate; to advance the interests of the , farmers who feed us all; to give our children the best schools in America; to check centralization and give more . home rule to cities, counties, townships and school districts; to maintain the direct primary and protect the right of women voters; to meet the just need3 of those whe served in the World war. To Revise Taxes. "To keep the expense of the state within its income. "To get a dollar's worth of service for every dollar spent." "I regard the present flagrant fallTire to enforce the Volstead law as a blot on the good name of Pennsylvania and the United States," said the governor. "If allowed to continue, it will amount to a serious charge against, the itness ofour people for genuine self-government; I share in the belief that no determined concerted effort to enforce the law has yet been made, and I propose not only to press with all my power for the abo lition of the saloon, but also to make wire-that the government of this state takes its full effective part in such . ftffotrt.--Must Control Criminals "Pennsvlvania must either control the criminals who are openly break ing the law, or be controlled by them. "With all good citizens I believe that this commonwealth is greater and more powerful than any band of law breakers whatsoever, and I intend to act on tSat belief. ... I shall expect and demand from every public cer vant appointed by me or subject to removal by me, from the highest to ihe lowest, entire and ungrudging "obedience to the eighteenth amend ment and the Volstead law. They are part of, the law of the land.' S, E, SMITH ELECTED .

MARRY GIRL FIRST, THEN ASK OFFICER, IS POLICY ON RHINE (By Associated Press) COBLENZ, Jan. 16. Marry the girl first and then ask the commanding of ficer's approval. This seems to he policy of the American .soldiers as the time for their separation from the Rhineland approaches. The usual method of procedure involves three ceremonies: The civil and religious rites take place at Lux emburg, followed by another here be fore the army chaplain if the consent of the superior office is obtained. There have been 498 such marriages during the occupation and already more than 100 non-commissioned officers and privates have applied for permission to take their brides' to the United States aboard the transport St. Mihiel. NEW YORK, Jan. 16. More than 50 per cent of the American forces in Germany either have married Ger man girls or are contemplating marriage, according to Major Charles Van Leusen, of the Salvation Army, who has just returned from Coblenz. He predicted that the American withdrawal would leave behind many broken hearts as the marriage cere monies were performed according to German custom and without the con sent of the American authorities. He said that the Americans were divided about equally on the question of returning home or remaining indefinitely in Germany. The order recalling the troops, of course, had not been issued when Major Van Leusen left Coblenz. A cable despatch from Coblenz last night said that the German government had requested information regarding the situation from the American provost courts at Coblenz and that it was thought an investigation of the relations of American soldiers with women was under way with possible attempts to prove cases of desertion of wives and children. INDIANA RAILROADS ARE ASKED TO HELP PREVENT ACCIDENTS INDIANAPOLIS. Jan. 16. John D. Williams, director of the state highway commission, today called upon railroads operating in Indiana to help in the campaign to prevent accidents at crossings. Crossings are made doubly dangerous, Mr. Williams said, where cars on sidings are left so close to the roadway as to obstruct the view of the tracks to one traveling on the highway until the crossing is reached. If a train passes on the main track, the motorist has little chance for his life, he declared. "One usually has a fueling of safety upon approaching a crossing 'where cars are standing on the siding, "A. H. Hinkle, chief maintenance engineer, said in discussing the mater, "but this situation is both a lure and a menace. One should always remember that on many crossings there are more than one track and that any minute a train may cross, the approach of which can not be obsei-ved from the highway until one is directly within the danger bone." The highway commission has taken up the mater with the safety departments of all railroads operating in Indiana, it was said. i WRONG SOMEWHERE From the Enworth Herald. A former M. P. confessed that, al- ! though he was always forgetting their faces 'and never remembering their names, he had no mnicuity in Deing pleasant to his followers in the house. When I meet somebody in the lobby whom I don't know from Adam, and I see he expects me to know who he is, I take him warmly by the hand, look straight into his eyes, and say, 'And how is the old complaint?' I have never known it to fail." r Suburban MILTON. Ind.

RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND

EUROPEAN SITUATION ONLY CLOUD ON OUR PROSPERITY, MADDEN "The European situation is the only cloud on the prospects of a renewed industrial prosperity," said William Madden, tax accountant from Indianapolis, in a review of prospective business conditions given in connection with a talk before the Rotary club at its noon meeting at the Arlington hotel Tuesday. "There are six factors strengthening the present business position, and six weakening it," said the speaker, quot ing from a leaflet published by himself. "The strong factors are our strong money position, increased basic production, increased fuel supply, improvement in agriculture, and increases in corporate and railroad earnings. "Of the weakening factors, all but the European can be remedied. A threatening coal strike can be han dled by the government, a possible rapid rise in prices which would with draw capital from production may be counteracted by competition, while three other elements, tariff uncer tainty, inadequacy of transportation. and scarcity of labor, caused by too strict immigration laws, all can be remedied by favorable legislation. But unless the situation in Europe im proves, our own prosperity may be ser iously harmed." Approves Budget System Hearty approval of the budget sys tem in government expenditures was voiced by the speaker in talking of the taxation system, with an even stronger appeal for economy in gov ernment, in national, state and mu nicipal units. "It matters little how we are taxed," he said, "if taxes remain the same." Corporations have been declaring numerous stock dividends to escape the possibility of confiscatory surplus taxation, stated the report. "The possibility that excess profits taxes which also may be made retroactive has added to the element of uncertainty seen in the possibility of a flat or graduated tax on unnecessary surpluses," said Mr. Maddon. "The federal, department is now sending investigators to all companies which did not agree to give more than five years for review of the 1917 year's business. Further tax legislation will depend upon the income realized from the tariff. Good Will Asset Good will within a corporation, loyalty among its members and employes, is its greatest and most valuable asset said the speaker in discussing corporation accounting. "I am now investigating an Indianapolis factory, where I have found that the greatest source of loss has been in the enmity felt by employes for their own co-workers." .

GOV. M'CRAY SUBMITS REFORMATORY DATA, QUIETS LOWER HOUSE (By Associated Prcsl) . INDIANAPOLIS. Jan. 16. Submission today by Gov. McCray of the detailed information concerning the new reformatory at Pendleton, which was asked for yesterday by Representative Gottschalk, Democrat, house leader, brought quiet to the lower house of the general assembly. The sudden Democratic attack yesterday when the house supported a motion of Representative Gottschalk asking for the reformatory plan left the minority elated over their success. A reconsideration of Representative Gottschalk's motion was obtained by Representative Ahlgren, Republican, floor leader, this morning, and Republicans and Democrats joined in voting down the motion. The acquiesence of the Democrats in reconsideration of the vote taken yesterday was attributed to the prompt submission by the governor of the data requested. Urges Action Withdrawn Mr. Ahlgren explained that it was desirable- that it appear that the information furnished by the government came from the executive voluntarily and was not forced from him by legislative action. The senate and house sessions this morning were devoted to routine busi ness. Both were adjourned this afternoon while committees considered bills. The senate passed through a round of debate on committee reports. After a number of speeches, the bill to repeal the township three mile road law was killed by adoption of a majority report from the roads committee favoring indefinite postponement. The other measure which brought forth the oratory was Senator English's bill to increase the supreme and appelate court judges' salaries- from $6,000 to $7,500 annually. It was killed also by acceptance of reports for indefinite postponement. FOLLOW NEW CLUES IN DENVER ROBBERY (By United Press) CHICAGO, Jan. 16.
