HYSTERIA SlIB$nMN6 Relief Will Be On County Secretary of and Industry Basis Says Labor Harrisburs, —Relief diirinR the winter will have to be based on re¬ cords of want :iiid unemployment in the various counties, Dr, North¬ rup. Secretary of Labor and Industry said today. The burden of un?mployment. whicii was annlyrcd by thc Depart¬ ment ior the whole State in June, hns ehangcd shtjhtly in the last few months. The main iniprovenients is in parts of the anthracite counties. This is .somewhat otfs:'t by the sea- iional decline in the bituminous counties. "Those 910.000 jiersons found un¬ employed in June are scattered throuphout the State." according to Dr. Northrup. "with the bulk of th.^m ill the industrial counties. The counties showiiiR three or more un¬ employed out of every ten pos.=-,ible workers are Carbon. Fayette, Law- reiice. I.,-hiph and Northampton. Forty-four of the counties show from two to three unempoyod nut of every ten workers. Some of tho ncricuUural counties, however, show very little unemployment. Adams. Bradford. Centre. Fulton. Juniata, : Monroe. Perry, Pike. Potter. Snyder. iTiopa, Union. Wayne and Wyoiniiiu are all safely under the 10 per cent. mark." "Relief activitie.-:,' Dr Northi-i:p said "cannot, of course, hope to make up ai e\eu a smi.l! part the huge re-,i-action in payrolh of Penn¬ svlvania manufactaiing concerns Theie \ver,> $26,V50.00fi weekly dur¬ ing 1929 and are now .ipo'-oximately Slo.OOO.OOO weekly The loss in pur¬ chasing power was o'er $10000.000 weekly e\en before the latest wage- cuts in the steel industrv. "The impression that wage-cuts hnve .jtisi begun is not borne out b;. the tacts," the Secretary pointed out. "DuriiiR 1930 at '.nst 13.5 manufac¬ turing firms had 1 educed wages about 12 per cent. In the first six month.- of 1931 an additional 167 firms reduced wages 10 per cent. Thr?^e rigiires are con:-ei vative, for less Ihan 40 per cent, of the manu¬ facturing firms of the State report to the nepartmenl of Labor and In- dustr>*." The figures cited by Dr. Northrup were collected by the bureau of sta¬ tistics, tinder the direction of Wil¬ liam J Maguire and liave just Ijeen issued as the thirty-third .special bulletin of the Department of Labor and Industry. Copies are available to tho.se interest?d. During tbe paat several wetka tba Hysteria wbkb baa Had tto run tbrougb out the West and aonth causing tbe cloatag el aumeroua soua4 and •oivaaiJiafet. *» t» tba heavy wlOktba^ af foade he the depodton. haa iMdNd the Awt Many pmple becoming alarmed, withdrew tbitfr depodto from tbe Banks, and in their fear, and Hy¬ steria, caused many false and vieidua rumors to be spread tbat tbe Banks were not safe, thereby caustng runa on the Banks. Unfortunately most people do not realise tbe daniaae tbey do to Banks by making remarks wbleh are wholly unfounded and false, and purely Imaginary but which tbe bearer will immediately confide to bis friends as the latest confidential informa¬ tion. Nine out of ten of all the Banka closed during the past year were closed on account of false rumors being spread and timid deposltora rushing to withdraw their funds. Circulating rumors and making false statements about Banks is a penal offense and all persons guilty of this offense should be prosecuted to the fuU extent of the law. Every ciUmn ahould be tully awara of tbe fact, that by withdrawing bia money from tbe Banks and making remarks that tend to destroy the confidence of tbe Public in the Banks, is doing the community a distinct harm. He is Just prolong¬ ing the depression, depriving the merchant and manufacturer of cre¬ dit and also likely to help himself out of a job. If the Banks would invoke the same unreasonable methods of the Public and demB-^d the money they hfive loaned to the merchants, far¬ mers luid the manufacturers, they would bring the nation to total col¬ lapse, ruin, failure and disaster would be ranipunt. Manv people are under the im« pressio:i that a. .-oon a:> a Bank clones if; doors, .--U is lost, but happ¬ ily this is not t'-.e case. In many in'-t.'.ncv thc Banks are Again rnen- ed natiy pay their depositors in full, an-i statistics show that ou an average, 90'^ nf all t»-e deposits of clc.'d Banlis are refunded to the depcsitorr. P-.u-i.e nf this community can well main I :• in their confidence in the Ka/,aro;'. Banks, and that this con- liden.-e Is maintained is evidenred b; tb.- ii.-t tha» this community is free irori the Hys'eria which has reached into other .sections. •— ENTBRT \iNS M-. end Mrs. Quintus Franta of .Oouth Main street entertained a :)nri of friemLs at tneir home on Wednesday evening A tastv lunch was enlryed followed by some inter- < -ling games.

Relief Will Be On County
Secretary of and Industry
Basis Says Labor
Harrisburs, —Relief diirinR the winter will have to be based on re¬ cords of want :iiid unemployment in the various counties, Dr, North¬ rup. Secretary of Labor and Industry said today.
The burden of un?mployment. whicii was annlyrcd by thc Depart¬ ment ior the whole State in June, hns ehangcd shtjhtly in the last few months. The main iniprovenients is in parts of the anthracite counties. This is .somewhat otfs:'t by the sea- iional decline in the bituminous counties.
"Those 910.000 jiersons found un¬ employed in June are scattered throuphout the State." according to Dr. Northrup. "with the bulk of th.^m ill the industrial counties. The counties showiiiR three or more un¬ employed out of every ten pos.=-,ible workers are Carbon. Fayette, Law- reiice. I.,-hiph and Northampton. Forty-four of the counties show from two to three unempoyod nut of every ten workers. Some of tho ncricuUural counties, however, show very little unemployment. Adams. Bradford. Centre. Fulton. Juniata, : Monroe. Perry, Pike. Potter. Snyder. iTiopa, Union. Wayne and Wyoiniiiu are all safely under the 10 per cent.
mark."
"Relief activitie.-:,' Dr Northi-i:p said "cannot, of course, hope to make up ai e\eu a smi.l! part the huge re-,i-action in payrolh of Penn¬ svlvania manufactaiing concerns Theie \ver,> $26,V50.00fi weekly dur¬ ing 1929 and are now .ipo'-oximately Slo.OOO.OOO weekly The loss in pur¬ chasing power was o'er $10000.000 weekly e\en before the latest wage- cuts in the steel industrv.
"The impression that wage-cuts hnve .jtisi begun is not borne out b;. the tacts," the Secretary pointed out. "DuriiiR 1930 at '.nst 13.5 manufac¬ turing firms had 1 educed wages about 12 per cent. In the first six month.- of 1931 an additional 167 firms reduced wages 10 per cent.

During tbe paat several wetka tba Hysteria wbkb baa Had tto run tbrougb out the West and aonth causing tbe cloatag el aumeroua soua4 and •oivaaiJiafet. *» t» tba heavy wlOktba^ af foade he the depodton. haa iMdNd the Awt Many pmple becoming alarmed, withdrew tbitfr depodto from tbe Banks, and in their fear, and Hy¬ steria, caused many false and vieidua rumors to be spread tbat tbe Banks were not safe, thereby caustng runa on the Banks.
Unfortunately most people do not realise tbe daniaae tbey do to Banks by making remarks wbleh are wholly unfounded and false, and purely Imaginary but which tbe bearer will immediately confide to bis friends as the latest confidential informa¬ tion.
Nine out of ten of all the Banka closed during the past year were closed on account of false rumors being spread and timid deposltora rushing to withdraw their funds. Circulating rumors and making false statements about Banks is a penal offense and all persons guilty of this offense should be prosecuted to the fuU extent of the law.
Every ciUmn ahould be tully awara of tbe fact, that by withdrawing bia money from tbe Banks and making remarks that tend to destroy the confidence of tbe Public in the Banks, is doing the community a distinct harm. He is Just prolong¬ ing the depression, depriving the merchant and manufacturer of cre¬ dit and also likely to help himself out of a job.
If the Banks would invoke the same unreasonable methods of the Public and demB-^d the money they hfive loaned to the merchants, far¬ mers luid the manufacturers, they would bring the nation to total col¬ lapse, ruin, failure and disaster would be ranipunt.
Manv people are under the im« pressio:i that a. .-oon a:> a Bank clones if; doors, .--U is lost, but happ¬ ily this is not t'-.e case. In many in'-t.'.ncv thc Banks are Again rnen- ed natiy pay their depositors in full, an-i statistics show that ou an average, 90'^ nf all t»-e deposits of clc.'d Banlis are refunded to the depcsitorr.
P-.u-i.e nf this community can well main I :• in their confidence in the Ka/,aro;'. Banks, and that this con- liden.-e Is maintained is evidenred b; tb.- ii.-t tha» this community is free irori the Hys'eria which has reached into other .sections.
