Washington, Oct. 19.-Both Fuel
Administrator Garfield and President
J. P. White of the United Mine
Workers expressed confidence yes
terday that the strike of coal min
ers in the central competitive field
Of Ohio, Illinois. Indiana and Penn
sylvania, would be settled within a
short time.
Despite reports indicating a spread
of strike sentiment among the men.
Mr.. White was optimistic. At the
fuel administration IL was said he
viewed the strike movement as
sporadic and believed that the trou-
BILE would be adjusted within a few
days by an appeal to the patriotism
Of the men not to permit the nations
coal supply to be diminished. Should
Mr.. Whites efforts fail, 1t is under
stood the fuel administration is pre-
pared to lay before President Wilson
a drastic plan for making certain an
adequate coal supply.
When informed today of reports
from some points in the middle west
that manufacturers and others were
boarding coal, officials at the fuel
administration said every effort
would be made TO prevent boarding,
and that whenever a case was found,
the coal would be seized and dis
trtbuted.

THE WHITE RACES.
Why They Are Unable to coIonize the
Tropics.


One reason-and most important
one-why white races are unable to
colOniZe the tropics, dying out inevita
bly, in generation or two, Is that they
have not enough sweat glands. The
sweat glands are the refrigerating ap-
paratus of the body. They draw water
from the blood and pour 1t out upon
the surface of the skin, where its evap-
Grafton keeps the temperature of the
body down. That is why we make a
person with fever perspire profusely.
1t lowers the temperature. In drawing
off the water the sweat glands draw
off also many impurities from the
blood, but their most important func-
tion Is the regulation of the tempera-
ture OF the blood
Two University Of Chicago students,
Ebert Clark and Rushkin ii. Llamon,
made a count Of the sweat glands In
the several races In the Philippine Is
lands. This they have just published.
Their report shows that for every
square centimeter of the skin area on
the fingers white Americans have 55S
sweat glands, American negroes have
597, Filipinos G53, Moros 6S4, adult Ne
gritos 100, Hlndus 1888 and Negrito
youths and children $50.
As all the sweat glands are fully
formed at birth and their number re-
mains the same throughout life, the
greater number found among the Ne
grito youths is no doubt due to a cor
responding difference in size Of indi-
viduals. As the body grows the skin
area increases and the glands become
more dispersed.
II is evident that 700 sweat glands
will pour out nearly q per cent more
perspiration than will 55S. Therefore
there will be y per cent more evapora-
ton, and so the Negrito Is comparative
ly comfortable In tropical heat that
the white man finds almost unbearable
