The Memorial Grouping
i\ar1Jerth is taking" pride in the
Memorial Grouping' whidl has been
presl'nted to the eomIllllnity b.y the
Harold D. Speakman Post. Ameri-
can Legion.
It is a plot of beauty and dig-
nity which adds much to the at-
traetiveness of the borough play-
ground.
Fitt ingly it marks a silent tribute
to the men who made the supreme
sacrifice for their country, and is
a mute reminder of the disaster of
War.
That many are pleased with the
simplicity of the presentation and
the sincrrity of those Legionuaires
who have worked hard to make the
memorial a reality, is indicated in
the \,oll1ntar)' contributiolls that
huve heen received toward financ-
ing the expense of the grouping.
In the words of Burgess Hull,
"there it is. There is nothing
more' to say except that \"arberth is
honored in accepting it."

Lower Merion Graduating Class of 1937
TURNPIKE AND EARLY
RAILROAD DAYS
The Schuylkill River was the first
artery of traffic. Large canoes were
used to transport goods. Later, when
the anthracite coal trade flourished, a
canal was built along the river to ac-
commodate the heavy traffic. The
first roads in Lower Merion were but
trails and horses and foot transporta-
tion only were available. The settle-
ment of Lancaster led to a demand for
an adequate highway between that
town and Philadelphia, resulting in
the construction of the first turnpike
in America. Completed in 1794, it
was immediately successful and en-
couraged the building of othel' turn-
pikes in the region. Passing through
Lower Merion, the Lancaster Turn-
pike played a part in the development
of the township. It was over this

So has sentiment grown
in th(' Home during the last two
w('eks. that the Roosev('lt proposal for
an addit ion'll $1,500,000,000 for re-
lief nl'xt year has struck a danp;erous
legislative snag. The Presidc'nt sent
his bill to Congress with a demand it
be enacted quickly.
But the relief scandals which come
to light almost daily throughout thc
countrY have been aired on the floor
for than a week, as a result of i ;',11', and :III'S. George R. Park, Sr"

did at the \'ery peak 'of otlr boom
prosp('rily in 1929, and we still
are carrying- almost 5,000,000 people
on relief," Ditter continued. "And
we have voluminous evidence of thl'
refusal of relief workers to accept
regular elllployment in industry. It
has been that this is due in
some degl'ee to the desire of political
bosses to keep their relief armies
intact. But whatever the cause, it
has hat! a demoralizing effect upon
our people and had retarded to a
great extent the resumption of normal
industrial relations."
Further vigorous attack upon the
Roosevelt-Hopkins of political
relief is anticipat€d when the bill
reaches the Senate, next week.
