SAYS RIDERS
P. R. L
FAVOR 5-CENT FARE
Conductors Turn in 26,646
Cards Bearing Signatures
of Those Who Approve
CAMPAIGN ON ALL LINES
Hourly reports received from all sec
tions of tho city indicate that a lari
pcrccntngj of car riders favor the
straight five-cent faro plan, according
to announcement mode by officials of
the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Co. thin
morning.
At o clock, conductors nt the vari
ous barns turned in cdrds bearing sig
natures .of 20,040 riders who appruveu
the five-cent fare plan, with no tramt
fern or exchanges, according to an
nouncement made by company officials.
It was stated (that the P. R T.i carries
ODnroximntclv 1.500.000 nersons 'daily.
It was alsd announced that 'a large
j!umber:,'of the cards were signcdby
riders who would- be affected by Xle
uu-rxcnuDgc-or-iransirr jmuii.
Tho canvass of riders on every car
line in the city to learn their attitude
regarding a straight' five-cent fare was
started this morning.
Kaeu person entering a car was given
a card, which told of achievements of
the company nnd pointed out the ncces
sity for n straight five-cent fare with
no transfers or exchanges.
Passengers wcro asked to indorse the
straight-fare plan, sign the card and
return it to tho conductor. The list
of signers probably will be used as one
of the company's nrguments when con
sideration of the straight-fare rtlan Is
given nt a special meeting of Council
Monday morning.
Conductors distributed the cords in
dustriously nnd reminded passengers
that by signing they were helping the
employes just as much ns the com
pany. Text of Appeal
The appeal follows:
CO-OPERATIVE EFFORT
To the Car -Rider:
Up to 1011 street-car strikes in Phil-,
adclpbla greatly disturbed the car-rider,
and cauRed enormous loss to the com'
munity.
Co-operation, under present Man
agement, has put a stop to all thin, and
every car-rider should be deeply inter
ested in helping to prevent a return to
bad street railway conditions, ns they
used to bo in Philadelphia, and still are
in other cities.
Instead of having strikes and inter
rupted car service during the war. co
operation, between the Men and Man
agement of P. R. T., secured such set
tled conditions as made it possible for
Philadelphia to get more than Its share
of war contracts. These contracts pro
vided plenty of employment at high
wages, made money plentiful and bene
fited everybody except P. II. T.
Pittsburgh is now permitted to charge
n 10c. fore, and this would have been
necessary here, except for the good
work of this Management and Its Men.
P. R. T. jvns refused permission to
make n general He. charge for trnnsfcrs
lait July, so that P. R. T. is growing
dally deeper in debt.
P. R. T. must havo more money now
immediately to pay Its wages and,
other Increased costs, nnd provide Jiet'
tcr servlco for the coming winter.

DELAWARE IS THE FOE
By ROBERT W. MAXWELL
The autumn tang of the story books
was not iu the nir today, but Its side
kick, that Indefinable something in the
atmosphere that always accompanies
the opening of the football season, per
vaded the historic precincts of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania. The old thrill
and seductive magnetism of the gridiron
could be felt plainly this morning in

Freshmen, In their bobbed caps,
swaggering sophomores, wise juniors
and dignified seniors chatted in little
groups, nnd the chatter was all about
the one thing "wonder what the team
will look ngalnst Delaware today?"
Although the fray with tho little
eleven from Newark, Del., wns in Itself
not a matter of any great moment. Its
value as a contest was vastly enhanced
by the fact that It wns the opening
game of the 1020 season nnd tho first
time that most Eastern football fol
lowers would see an eleven using the
famous Heisman shift. Thousands hnve
wished to see the author of the great
gridiron glide and the system nnplled
to eleven men, ever since Pennsylvania
received that 41-0 lolt from Georgia
Tech In Atlanta In 1017.
And this Is the day they will see it.

' St. Paul, Minn., Sept. 23. The Non
partisan League state ticket .here ap
parently is going to be beaten. The Re
publican mnnngcrs nro privately confi
dent of electing their candidate for gov
ernor, J. A. O. Preus, though publicly
they avoid expressions of confidence for
fear that some of their voters may neg
itct j0,00""! to the polls If they think
the defeat of the Nonpartisan League
cnndldoto for governor, Hcnrlk Skip
etead, is assured. The leaguers do not
apPrSnrw bo "specially hopeful.
Tho defeat in tho primaries was b se
vere blow to them. They entered their
candidate, Sklpstcad. in the Republican
primaries, nnd the situation greatly fa
vored them. The opposition to tho league
was badly divided. There were five Re
publican candidates fon the nomina
tion for governor besides tho league's,
Sklpstcad running in the Republican
primaries. Tho Republicans succeeded
In concentrating their vote chiefly upon
Preus. who beat Sklnstend for tho nom
ination by about 8000 votes. About
((D.uuu votes were divided among the
other four candldntcs. snmn of whlpli.
especially those cast for the Progressive
uepuDiican candidate, Ifrankson, prob
ably belong in the league column.
On the straight-out issue of the lieu
tenant covernorshln. whern them werf-
only two candidates in the primaries,
the Republican and the Nonpartisan
Leaguer, tho Republican won by 17,000
votes. Thnt was a fair test nf strength
between the parties, or factions of the
itopiiDitcnn pnrty.
Every Advantage With G. O. P,
Thus there is a fair margin of safety
lor tno republicans, iiut in the No
vember election every advantage will
be with the Republicans. The Nonpar
tisan LeoEiicrs. havinz been defeated In
the Republican primnries, arc forced to
run their state ticket independently. No
electoral ticket heads It. And as most
of Ihe members of the league wish to
vote for Mr. Harding, they will be voting
In tho Rcnubllcnn column nnvwav.
There will be a temptation to vote the
Republican ticket straight. It will be
theeftsIeitvwjr7i;PjKry'ireguIarlty will
hold somo voters unci; irom supporting
the lehgiio ticket who were willing to
voto for it so long as it was presented
in the Republican primaries. And the
big swing for Harding which is unmis
takable) In this stnte will nld the Repub
lican "State ticket. If this were not n
presidential yenr, tho league ticket would
hnvo a better chance.
The league has made some progress
in Minnesota in tho last two yenrs, but
not enough progress to afford Hh sup
porters much hope. Two yenrs ago, with
only two candldntcs for govecrnor it:
the Republican primnries, the league
cast 43 per cent of the vote. This year,
taking the vote for lleutennnt governor
ns thp basis, there being only two can
didates in thnt rnre, the league cast 47
per cent of the votes. But it had been
frcclv predicted that this year the league
would capture the Republican party in
Minnesota.
Meanwhile tho old parties hnve found
a way to weaken the league in North
Dakota, the only stnte it controls, where
Its nin'nritv lins been cut to 0000 nnd
'where It has lost three state officials
and one congressman. What has al
ways happened to third parties is hap
pening to the league. Third pnrtlca
nro first denounced by the older parties.
Then their best ideas nre appropriated
by the old parties. In North Dakota
this car the Republicans ndopted the
league program substantially and they
ran three former leaguers for office.
In Minncsotn the Republicans frankly
admit the justice of many of the farm

Government Twisted Into IVjon
strosity of Waste, Republican
Nominee Asserts
By the Associated Press .'
Marlon, O., Sept. 25. An era jot
business stability and of businesslike
government was promised by Senator
Hnrdlng today in a front-porch speech
to a gnthering of several thousand coni
merclal travelers, who come fronj all
narts nf the country under the nusDlcet
of the Harding and Coolldge Traveling
Men's League. A large rnliacicipuia
delegation wns present. .
The business methods of thp Demo-.
crntlc administration, both in the con-1
duct of its own affairs and in its rela
tions to private enterprise, were' de
nounced by the Republican nominee as
"meddling and autocratic" to,' degree
threatening industrial chaos. He out
lined a policy of common couriscl In con
tract to "one-man judgment," ann
pledged himself to "on Idealism based
on such sense thnt it docs not treat the
nation's business with' suspicion nnd
contempt." ,
Ambassadors of Education
In opening his address Senator
Harding said tbf- first traveling men of
all civilization become the ambassador
of educatinnnnd art, the bearers of
ideas, and the surveyors of the widened
fields of human relationships, and that
the traveling men of today maiuimu
their tfmtntwt relationship to the life
a njl' 'progress of America.
"I do not mean to address you espe
cially as commercial travelers," Sena
tor Hording said. "I would not dwell
upon criticism of the conditions brought
ubotit by nearly eight years of misimm
ngement of the United States If It wur
not necessary to take some account or
where we now stand, so thnt we may
wisely bring America again to her main
rond, and restore prosperity and give
promise to the laborer, who gives u
the products of soil and toil, that w
'shall not have in the United States a
'no-hour day.'
"I want the commercial travelers, of
the one big house this republic of ours
nlways to be thinking of Amenca
first.
"You want Mobility once more for
American business. ou want normal
conditions. You wnnt that confidence
and security which will put an end
to nnxietr 'about production, nn end
ho, tear about buying, nn end to un-

No abiding commercial edifice wns' ever
builded on the changing sands of un
certainty. Free From Abuse
"In deploring present-day condi
tions. I do not mean to indulge in
abuse which can hear no good fruit,
nor in criticism which can only result
in contention.
"! believe that everywhere in the
land there is the opinion that we have
had enouch of Government excessively
centralized in executive powers: enough
of nutocrntic government unwilling to
heed counsel nnd advice; enough of
government which ignores the repre
sentative brntich nnd its close coutact
with the popular will.
"I want it very explicitly under

office means a complete change from

elide was her aunt. The missing child,
Mrs. Griffin snld. was not really Mrs.
Dansey's son. and had been taken away
by Mrs. Radcllffc. some time before he
was reported missing.
Efforts to find Mrs. Rndcliffe proved
futile. The police of Hammonton place
little credence iu the report that the
Dansov boy is nllve. At the coroner's
inquest in the case Mrs. Dansey iden
tified the clothing of her missing child.
