Cause OF Sleep

What causes sleep? Some have
thought that it depends on flow Of
blood to the brain resulting from a
recumbent position, but you have seen
that the brain contains less blood dur
ing sleep. and a person can lie down
for a long time without sleeping. Re-
peated observations on the displace-
ment of the blood pressure from the
brain to the extremities during sleep
gave basis for the thought that sleep
is due to cerebral anaemia.

EXPLOSION ON STEAMER. D Stir on Vauban When Cartridges Go
 Off and Fire BIazes Forth.

New York. April 11.--Sleeping pas Eengers on the steamship Vauban, ap- preaching New York early today off Sandy Hook, were aroused by an ex- plosion in the baggage compartment of the steerage.

COLORADO SUPREME COURT JUDGE
HAS PLAN TO PREVENT STRIKES

They have supreme court Judge
In Colorado named Tully NJ. Scott,
who thinks and sees clearly. He has
come forward with q plan to prevent
coal strikes In the future. His REM
edy is simple; it does not build up an
immense system OF arbitration or
mediation, but he declares in en-
1phatic language "Give the state
power to condemn and operate the
mines, and we will not hear much
in the future about strikes and lock-
outs" -:
{ The United Labor Bulletin of Den
yer saw the virtue Of Judge SCOTS
suggestion at a glance. In comment
ing upon it the Bulletin declares that
tho plan is the most feasible yet pro-
posed by g. state official to establish
permanent industrial peace in Colo
RADIO. Continuing, The Bulletin says:
Judge Scott is of opinion that state
regulation, as now considered, Of any
great industry as a means OF procur-
ing efficient service or reasonable
working conditions for the men en-
ployed, has proved failure. Nine
years effort on the part Of the inter-
state commerce commission, with the
ing reached any approximate solution
Of the railroad rate problem, rs point
! ed to in sustaining this contention.
Therefore any hope of settling the
present coal strike or averting future
strikes through legislation is bound to
meet ultimate failure.
| 1.-THE railroads and coal mines are
not, according to Judge SCOTS view,
merely public utilities they are. in
stead. indispensable public necessi'
ties,' and their uninterrupted and
proper operation are matters also OF
the sravest and the greatest public
concern, and the people, through the
government, are justified not only in
debating how those public necessi.
ties shall be managed; they are JUST
fled also, it the need arises, Of con
demning them for state or nationa
ownership and Of operating them ir
the interests and for the service OF
the people.
Therefore, taking this view of thu
elements Of the industrial problems
and of the immediate strike problem:
in particular, Judge Scott suggest!
that there should be initiated at thu
next general election a law giving tn
state power to develop, operate ane
vend the products Of new coal mines
and to condemn, for similar operation
by the state, and any every coal min
now developed of which the stat
might have need.
"'Give the power of condemnation
and operation to the state Judg'
Scott suggests, and we will not hea
much in the future of strikes AM
lockouts-'
/ "Under the operation Of such a Law
the state could step in immediatel,
upon calling of strike similar to th
one which has been pending In Colo
RADIO coal fields since last September
