COKE SHORTAGE
DUE LARGELY TO
CAR SCARCITY

CONNELLSVILLE, Pa, Nov. 10
The car situation continues to be the
dominating factor in the production
and shipment OF coke. There is not
only an increasing shortage Of cars.
but the irregularity and delay in plac-
ing such cars are are available tend to
make the situation even more acute.
With the Sunday lull In which to
gather equipment the railroads last
Monday were able In some instances
TO provide 100 per cent of the require
ments, but each succeeding day saw
such reductions that on Wednesday
only 20 per cent of the cars needed
were available. The embargo placed
upon traffic west bound from Pitts
turgh does not include coke, and some
hope for the immediate future Is felt
in consequence.
The combined tonnage from the dis
trict, with the coal reduced to coke
equivalent, was $4,000 tons, a slight
gain over the proceeding week. The
market for spot coke has eased off
little, latest sales being reported at 81
ton instead of $7.20 which prevailed
late last week.

and the American music publisher are beginning to prefer the national to local library as the permanent GUS +odian of manuscript scores. The chief of the music division records not on1v gifts of autograph scores or American composers but promises ot gifts to come.
 Tn the document division an effort was made to complete files of ofhclal publications or the Latln-Amerlcah countries, and it was exceptionally fruitful through a visit to these coun- fries by the law librarian, Dr. E. M. Rorchard. The librarys collection Of J.atin-Amercan documents may now be considered one of it's important features.
 A number of Yiddish books came to the library in the two Deinard collec- lions. The Yiddish literature in the United States assumes 8 respectable place as compared to other htera- lures; and even if the predictions of some come true that the Yiddish tongue will be dead before long, the Yiddish literature will still offer a wide and interesting field for histori- ans, philologists, and students of com parative literature.

ator Stone concluded, "that a neutral nation, suffering on so large scale the evils of war is obligated from any just point of view to stand helplessly aloof, denied all right to offer even a suggestion until invited to speak On the contrary I hold that whenever a nation, or any group of neutral nations, becomes the unoffending vic tim of any wars, it or they, acting singly or in concert, can as of right make representations to the nations at war to discuss the questions at is- sue and strive for a basis upon which honorable peace may be restored to the world.
 Consequences of Offense.
 If you ask what the neutral nation or nations might do if their approachment should be resented as offensive, I answer that that would be a question for after consideration. The question Is not difficult to an- swer. Various things might be done if any or all belligerents persisted in a course which might be regarded as not only offensive to, but hurtful to the neutral nations offering their friendly services. I do not now care to go to the length of indicating what might be done.
 My purpose in venturing upon this theme is solely to combat the notion that in the circumstances of this war neutral nations cannot properly move, even in the most friendly spirit, to terminate a struggle disastrous not only to the nations engaged in it, but enormously hurtful to the whole world, until such outside intervention has been invited I cannot subscribe to that doctrine"

 GREATEST IN WORLD
More Than 28,O0O Volumes Con-
 tributed in Past Year

Washington, Dec. 15.-Gifts from 2S,000 volumes to the library of con- gress during the year, and comprised more than one-fourth of the additions to it's shelves. Retaining it's place as the third greatest library in the world, and the greatest in the western world, the library now contains 2,45l,97 books, 154,2oO maps and charts, 77O,24S volumes and pieces of music and 392,9o5 prints.
 For large additions to the Chinese, Japanese and Korean collections the library acknowledges debt to Dr. Wal ter T. Swingle of the bureau of plant industry, who visited the Far East in 1915 and purchased on behalf of the library a total of 5,892 volumes, in cluding early chinese books printed from blocks; Chinese historical and descriptive works covering the period of first contact with Europeans; early Chinese dictionaries and encyclope dias; Chinese works on natural his tory and pharmacopoeias: geographi- cal works: the writings of Confucius and the works of famous scholars; and a good copy of the oldest Japanese printed work extant, probably dating from the beginning of the thirteenth century; and a large collection of the writings of Kaibara, the Benjamin Franklin of Japan.
 The Lincoln documents which have been presented to the library are of OK ceptional interest. These consist of the original draft of Lincoln's second inaugural address, and his two drafts of the Gettysburg address presented by Clarence L.. Hay, who had them from his father, the late John Hay; and a memorandum as to the improb- ability of his reelection, presented by Miss Helen Nicolay.

STONE ASSERTS OUR
 RIGHT TO HALT WAR
Compares Possible OffenSe to
 Way We Have Been Offended

St. Louis, Dec. 15.-The right of a nsutral which has suffered from the effects of the European war, particu- iarly the right of the United States. to initiate a movement for peace was asserted here last night before the league to enforce peace by Sen ator Stone, chairman of the senate foreign relations committed
 Since the war, has almost from the beginning, resulted Hi continuing of fensive attacks on the rights and dig nifty of this sovereignty and in in ficting incalcula bIe injury to our na- tional interests-all of which we have ' borne with patience because of our friendship for the nations involved," said Senator Stone, ''it seems to me that after enduring these attacks and suffering these losses for nearly two and half years, with no end yet in sight, we have right. without regard to any question of sympathy or hu- manity, but solely on our own ac- count and to safeguard our own in terests to approach the combatants aS a mutual friend and open nego- lishment of normal interna tional con- ditions.
 "Our relations to the combat are such and our interests are so in Y ts -speak--a right SO clear as to en- title Us to speak without asking and without just offense We would not speak impertinently as interm eddlers but as a friend who suffered griev- ously and innocently from the ruth less acts of war"
 Hints at Later Developments.
 The senator. declared he wished it distinctly understood that he spoke on his own personal responsibility, but said he later might speak "in another, forum" on whether any neu- tral or group of neutrals should lat tempt any affirmative action to end the present war" He said he would not discuss the wisdom or unwisdom of an approach of the belligerents with peace proposals but merely of the propriety of the right and pointed out that distinguished men in this country and in the warning countries have warned that such a movement would not only be futile | but offensive.
 T am not disposed" he added, Ito 1 accept without questioning either the accuracy of these statements or the soundness of the reasons on which they are predicated. Two families with a feud between them might, so long as they kept the peace and ob- served the law, resent any effort of an outsider to harm onize them; but If they should break forth into open war so as to disturb the general peace and visit universal harm upo1. the whole neighborhood, the law abiding members of the community would have a right to call a halt without being guilty of impertinence: Why should not the same rule apply, morally and legally, to the family of nations?"
 Our Pride Grossly Offended.
 The United States, the senator said, has suffered from acts committed which have been grossly offensive to our national pride and hurtful beyond estimate to our national interests" He lnstanced censorship of the mails, ships seized or sunk on the high seas, peaceful commerce with neutrals in terrupted or interdicted, and Arneri- -

NAME COMMITTEE
 ON FLOOD CONTROL
SOUTHERN MEMBERS FARE WELL IN SELECTION OF
 HOUSE BODY.
VACANCIES LIKELY SOON
Opposition Before Ways and Means Committee By Northern Democrats May Result in Them Getting
 Larger representation.

Washington. Representatives Humphreys of Mississippi, Garrett of Tennessee, Russell of Mis- souri, McLemore of Texas, Will son of Louisiana and Vinson of Georgia were selected by the ways and means committee Democrats for membership on the new House con- mittee on flood control. Mir Humph- reys will be chairman. Three more Democrats are to be chosen With six Republicans to be chosen by Leader Mann, the committee will have 15 members Representative Wingo of Arkansas was tentatively added to the Democratic list.
 MT. Humphreys announced that scheme of action under which the Mississippi River flood troubles would be handled would be one of the first matters considered and he believed that it would work out plan that would adequately present 10 the House a solution of the problem that has been before Congress so many years.
 There was considerable opposition before the ways and means committee to the dominance of Southern mem- bers, northern representatives con tending that the Northern Democrats were not adequately represented. The tentative nature of MT. Wingo's selec- tion was due to this opposition. and it is possible that the three yacan- eies, including that tentatively filled by MT. Wingo. may be given to North ern members.

his Buddhist faith that gives Burma it's characteristics and it's charm Out of the twelve million inhabitants of Burma, ten million are Burmese. The Burmese is one of the proudest, most indolent and self-satisfed races on earth. The rude jostle of these other peoples who are elbowing their way into his country. competing with him in business, acquiring his land, even questioning the supremacy of his re- ligion, is giving a harsh jolt to many ideas that have held placid sway in the Burmese mind. The awakening is painful. but part of the stern kind ness of Providence to people grown inert through isolation
 No Longer Isolated.
 There is surely nothing isolated about Burma today. The Chinese are pouring in from the North. It is estimated that if the immigration con tinues there will be a million Chinese who will be living in Burma within the next fifteen years. These Chinese traders. merchants and farmers inter- marry with the Burmese, and form a strong and stable element in the popu- lation. The Bengali, Tamil and Telu- gu immigrants are more alien, less readily absorbed and introduce com plicated problems, social and religious In Rangoon there are already almost as many Indian Hindus as Burmese Buddhists. These poor Indian coolies bring with them their idolatry their caste marks. their Hindu festivals; and Buddhism finds itself once more face to face at close quarters with the Hinduism from which it sprang. Which faith will more strongly influ. ence the other only the future can dis close.
 At present the outstanding feature
