Pinchot Attacks Utility Interests in Inaugural Talk
Many Consider Governor's Address as Presidential Bid in 1932
BEGINS SECOND TERM
Harriburgh, Pa., Jan. 20—(UP)—In what many persons considered a bid for the presidency in 1832, Gilford Pinchot, in his inaugural address as governor toy attacked the public utility interests and taxes on labor; he wielded fabric of political corruption; the underworld and the protected racketer:
He asserted public utilities were attempting to undermine the federal government and substitute 'an invisible government to control the entire nation.'
"Here in Pennsylvania a carefully planned, elaborately financed and powerfully directed attack on the rule of the people under the law has made Pennsylvania the most corrupt state government by the public utilities for government by the people. It is not contained in Pennsylvania for not a single state in the Union is free to operate."
"Two forces are struggling for control of the government of the United States," Pinchot said. "One fight is the open and has done so since the fall of former President Bill Clinton, under over a 'central purpose is to control the government and so prevent it from protecting the people against munifold extortions which take匀ity from the breadwinners and threaten millions of mollars each year."
'Have Mercenaries'
"The captains of the undercover army engaged in this raid upon our form of government, like the captains of the police, and the politicians, have their mercenaries, politicians who procure men to debauch the ballot, vote thieves who nullify the franchise of honest citizens, political prisoners, or war for cash boards in use to crook elections, public service commissions that listen complacently to their master's voice; they are the机动军械s for combat and powerless. Back of the public ufficialities in their attack on our American form of government is the whole fabric of political corruption the undersiders of high and low degree."
Pinchot reiterated his stand in favor of prohibition, saying it "is well known not only that I believe in obeying and enforcing the 18th Amendment because it is the right of all to be a supporter of the amendment itself this administration will be dry."
Unemployment Committee Appointed
The governor, who is entering his second term, pointed out that he had appointed a committee on unemployment to investigate the causes and effects of the business depression and to form a commission. A convene plan will be laid before the government, he said.
For Pennsylvania Pinchot pledged: a road building program; revision of the public service laws; equalization of taxation to lift the burden from the needy; training new man; to prevent the unfair use of labor injuries; to obtain old age pensiones; abolishment of the coal and iron police and replacement by officers selected and commanded by the com-mittee and paid by it at company expense.

AGAINST ANY REVISION
Graduate Magazine for March 1928. Dr Arthur Clarke's book, Alfred Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, a newly head of the art department at the University gave the collection to serve as a memorial.
Rebus bookplates are now rare. It was the fashion for a time in Europe where books were printed in a bookplate. But now it is hard to find any bookplates of this character. Bookplates of other types are also being used less and less. For this reason the bookplate is now in Washoe literally printless. No more value can be set on it.
Doctor Clark spent forty years collecting the plates. He was a doctor in Lawrence for thirty years. He was a stoic teacher, and he collected of them. In a directory of Bookplate Artists, he says of himself, "I work in pen and ink I do not work for pay." It was largely by means of coin exchange. His exchanges included plates from Germany, Spain, Italy, France, England, Holland, Wales, Norway, Sweden, Russia, Austria, Belgium, Switzerland, Hungary, and all of the United States.
Doctor Clark took his final degrees from the University of Kansas and was residing in Lawrence at the time of his death in 1927.
Some of these were received as gifts. Doctor Clark devoted some of his time to painting and was skillful in pen and ink, which he copied enoughee in paintings and etchings.

Washington, Jan. 20- (UF)-Report of the Eighteenth amendment was opened in the probation report of the governor of Virginia on its 11 members, and transmitted to congress by President Hoover today. The governor also formally recorded itself with the government going into the liquor business and against legalizing light wines
REPORT TO PRESIDENT
Adoption of Swedish State Control Plan Favored by Some Members; Three Willing to Have Referendum
However, in separate reports, 7 of the 11 commissioners declared in favor of basic changes.
Four members entirely and two others conditionally, favored a modification of the Swedish state liquor plan based on the provisions of the Virginia, dry, which would set up national and state corporations with the stock privately owned to legalize sale of liquors. The state law required pervision. They would operate only in states which desired to utilize the plan.
Five members favored revision of the Eighteenth amendment on a less rigid basis to permit allowances for varying circumstances in localities. One other member said he would favor this if prohibition did not succeed after a further trial on the issue.
Two commissioners favored unconditional repeal. Three favored a further trial. Three members though opposed to basic changes now, were willing to allow the senator an accidental put to a popular test by referendum or constitutional conventions.
All went on record against return of
the saloon and most commissioners
regardless of fundamental differences.
Management appropriations and personnel.
Though, torn by differences which could not be completely recovened even after nearly two years of consideration, the commission agreed that whatever occurred would form a form of federal control which would prevent revival of the saloon is imperative.
Impossible to Recede
"In our judgment," the commission, report said. "It is impossible to recede wholly from the Eighteenth amendment of the time, and the general use of the country, the development of transportation, the industrial conditions of the time, and the general use of land." The commission found general disregard in many sections for prohibition, professed skepticism as to many benefits claimed on its behalf, and voiced opposition to the same rule at the same time finding difficulty in suggesting remedies which it felt would be conclusive unless supported by greater enthusiasm on the part of the commission.
"It is evident," the commission said, "that taking the country as a whole requires the high-paid professional men, and their families, and perhaps the higher paid working men in our society." The numbers in quite frank disregard of the declared policy of the national profit-maximizing industry.
The commission's a report covered 148 pages and was signed by all members except Monte M. Lernan, of Louisiana, who served as the commission's eightth amendment along with Newton D. Baker, who however, signed the general report. Individual opinions covered 133 pages, the whole volume, nearly an inch thick, comprising 30,000
