MINERS GIVE IN FULLY
Acceptance Of Penalty Clause Signed
BY Districts Heads.

Kansas City, Nov. IA few mo-
ments after the interstate convention
OF coal miners of the Southwest voted
last night, 1874 to 1863, not to accept
the proposal of the operators en-
bodying the most drastic "autocrat-
ic' penalty clause ever written into
a coal miners wage contract, the Mis-
souri,, Oklahoma and Arkansas dele
cations, led by their district presi-
dents, d. A. Frampton of Missouri
and John Wilkinson of Oklahoma
and Arkansas, "bolted' the conven-
ton and instructed their officials to
sign the contract. When the Kansas
delegates returned at 7:3o o'clock to
the Labor Temple they found the 9TH
er delegates had left. President
Howat of the Kansas miners advised
them the only course open was for
him also to accept the contract, and
he was authorized to do so by unani-
nous vote.
Thus ended the hardest struggle
made by the miners of the Southwest
in many years against contract
clause they term the most unjust
and outrageous" ever imposed upon
coal miners in America. They yield
ed. they said, not to the operators,
but to the demand of the government
through the fuel administrator, DR..
Fl. A. Garfield.
The convention was in session a
week. Late yesterday, in reply to a
telegraphed inquiry to the Fuel Ad-
ministrator, Howat received tele-
gram saying the Automatic penalty
clause which the operators presented
to the district officials Friday-which
they had refused to sign-was sat
isfactory" to the Fuel Administration
1t was then motion instructing the
district officials to accept the clause
was defeated, and the bolt" fol-
lowed. There was nothing for the
Kansas district to do, Howat and the
delegates agreed, but accept defeat.

County Superintendent A. c. More
land has received from the Missouri
Association for the Relief and Con-
troll of tuberculosis copy OF
Ritchie's Primer of Sanitation which
was awarded as a prize to thePapins-
vile school for having sold the great
est number of Red Cross seals of any
rural school in the county in last De-

against tuberculosis. The school was
taught by Anna Afford. The prize
will be presented to the school with
some ceremony in the near future.
54oI seals were sold in Bates coun-
ty last year and 4,s64,454 in the State.
Over hundred million were sold in
the United States, netting over a
million dollars. Three hundred mil
lion are expected to be sold this De-

expected on account Of the general
desire to obviate the great increase in
consumption incident to the war.

OF Red Cross seals is heightening the
interest Of the people of the county
in school sanitation and the medical
inspection of school children.
