UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO GATHERS
HISTORY OF COLORADO AND WAR

In January, 1918, the compilation
of material on Colorado's war activi-
ties was planned and an appeal made
to the newspaper publishers of the
state for copies for clipping. The un-
dertaking was Immediately sanctioned
by the state council of defense.
February, 1918, work of clipping
begun. Two files started one contain
ing items on the men and women in
national service, the other items of a
community character such as drives
of all kinds, Red Cross work, food and
coal conservation and the activities Of
state, county and local councils, COM
mittees and boards. These files have
attained great size. In the first there
are now personal items relating to
nearly 1000 men and women, as well
as hundreds of honor rolls and other
lists of names. In the second file
there are index cards for 296 cities
and towns and for most of the coun-
ties of the state. AS there are in this
file some 10000 manila paper sheets,
letter size, on which clippings are
pasted, the number of clippings filed
is very large.
In addition to the collection of clip
pings an attempt has been made to
gather Colorado pamphlets and other
publications relating to the war. OF
these large number has been brought
together. The collection of war post
ers dates from the beginning of the
war and is very comprehensive.

LESS NINE FATALITIES NOW.
Government Statistics Show Greater
Care Is Being Taken.

According to the reports received by
the United States bureau of mines
from the state mine inspectors of all
states, except Kentucky and Kansas,
244 men were killed during July, 1918,
in and about the coal mines Of the
states reporting, as compared with 236
in the same states in July, 1917.
During the first seven months of
1918, 1,422 men were killed by coal
mine accidents in the United States.
This figure does not include fatalities
in Kentucky during the period stated,
nor those in Kansas during June and
July, for which no reports have been
received. During the corresponding
months of 1917, after eliminating the
same states for purposes of compari-
sons, there were ,534 fatalities; thus
the 1918 figures show decrease of
112 fatalities from the record of the
previous year.

Frederick E. Triebell Of New York
Takes Job at Hog Island, Leav-
ing Thousands of Dollars In
Uncompleted Statuary.
Especial Correspondence,


PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. s.
Sacrificing everything in order to do
what he considers the all-important
work of turning out ships for Uncle
Sam, is the story of Frederick E. Trie-
bell, noted sculptor, who was recently
found in laborer's garb bending over a
"job" in the Hog Island shipyard.
Work representing thousands of dol
lars lies neglected in his studio at
Long Point, L. l., while he is con-
scientiously doing his bit. In the
studio is half finished statuary and
other partially completed work in
marble.
Here is his own story of how he at
tempted to obtain job as stone cut
ter at Hog Island by camouflaging his
appearance with the habiliments of
common laborer:
81 am So years old, and have found
| it very difficult for a man Of my age
to get into this war in any capacity.
Every artist should be intensely inter-
ested in this war for the overthrow of
Prussianism, for all art will perish if
the German brutes conquer.
81 realized this before the United
States got into the war, and soon
to Washington and applied for posi-
tion in the camouf1age department.
was informed that these positions
were subject to civil service regula-
tions and was also told that my age
was against me. AS l can speak sew
eral languages fluently next applied
| for a position as interpreter. Again
/ was confronted by the civil service
barrier. The army intelligence de-
partment turned me down because of
my age.
FINALLY purchased a laborer's out
fit at a second hand shop in New York
and brought the clothing to my studio.
with a bundle under my arm l
stole out of the house, taking just
enough money to cover my carfare to
Philadelphia and for two or three
meals. / am satisfied with the result
of the experiment. l have found a
niche in this great war for humanity,
and that knowledge makes me content
to abandon for while my mallet and
chisel.
81 saw the menace of the Hun as
early as 1908, and l sounded the
alarm in a series of lectures around
the country. In my travels in Central
and South America / saw that the
Teutons had perfected tight eco
nomic grip in those parts of the world.
AS early as 1905 the Germans had be-
come a power in Central and South
America. They controlled all business
and their influence was creeping into
politics, dominating the domestic and
foreign relations of Central and South
American countries. / saw the evil
German plot working in Europe. In
Rome l saw German agents laying
plans for a Hun-controlled world.

to see German brutishness drive love,

During the past month the scope
of the record of the war activities of
the men in service has been broad
ened. Thru a war record blank, to be
filled out by the relatives Of the men
or by other persons informed, an at
tempt is being made to supplement
and correct the information gained
from the newspapers. The distribu-
tion of these blanks is now under way
in eighteen counties. In short time
this number will be considerably en-
larged. Already there are over 1000
of the blanks in the hands of one or
another agency in the counties and
requests are received every day for
more. Several hundred, filled out as
directed, have been sent in to date.
In large number Of instances pho
tographs of the men have been sent in.
This collection of material is being
assembled under the direction of the
department of history of the Univer-
sity of Colorado. Most of the work
is done by students of the university.
When completed, the collection will
be permanent and public record Of
the war work of individuals and COM
munities thruout the state.
The approaching end of the war
will cause no relaxation in the effort
to obtain all possible material relat-
ing to war activities, especially the
war records of the men in service.

OHIO PLAN URGED
MISSOURI WORKERS DEMAND
PROPER COMPENSATION LAW.
Only Great Industrial State Still Re-

Especial Correspondence)
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Nov. 12.-
A workmen's compensation bill on the
lines of the "Ohio plan" was demand
ed by recent statewide conference
of representatives of organized labor
in Missouri.
In Ohio the law provides an ex-
elusive state insurance fund for COM
pensation benefits which are based on
two-thirds of wages. This plan re-
suited last year in saving Of over
SIS 100000 to the industries Of the
state, while providing literally for in
jured workers and their families. I.
Missouri is the only large industrial
state still without workmen's COM
pensation. Joint efforts of employers
and employees to secure compensa-
ton law have been thwarted for seven
years by hostile element in the SEN
ate. In the present campaign organ
lied labor is. finding strong support
among leading employers, and it is be-
ing freely predicted that the 1919 leg
islature will take favorable action.
"In these days when man power is
of such vital Importance, and when
the necessity for cordial relations be-
tween employer and employe is being
impressed upon every thoughtful per-
son." says a recent statement by ].
Lionberger Davis, a prominent Mis-
souri, business man, sit seems incom-
prehensible that a great industrial
state like Missouri should hesitate to
adopt a workmen's compensation act

And we are going to occupy the land.

Now are on their castigated runs;
And our glorious banner, emblem of

Is waving in the kingdom of the

NEW YORK, May i.-Billy Miske

factor in the crowning Of a new worlds
heavyweight champion simple because
be hasn't been properly managed IN his
Efforts TO break into the big circle.
Afiske's great showing against Fred
Fulton and his subsequent victory over
Tom COwler proves beyond question
that he is able 30 hold his own with
the big fellows. Whether he can beat
them doesn't matter. II he had been
properly handled during his scraps with
the heavies he would now be In line
for a crack at the worlds title. As It
now stands he probably win have to
wait while.
Mlske grew into sudden popularity
in New York q little more than a year
ago when he met and defeated Matlllng
Levlnsky IN a ten round bout at the
Clermont Club, Brooklyn. He ham
mered the dayligbts out OF Dan Nor
gan's big blonde and entrenched him
self in the favor Of New York fight fans
for all time TO come. Subsequent bat
ties IN New York only added TO his pop
ulsrity In the big towns.

third meeting between the pair was a
sorry affair for Dillon. for he was given
the worst beating Of his life.
There Is only one man who appears
to have it on Miske, and that scrappcr

Tommy Gibbons, a native Of 81. Paul,
which also claims Mlske for It's own
Gibbons and Miske have met several
times, with the former always coming
out on the front end OF the points
scored. Even Tom has been unable to
thoroughly beat Miske. The light
heavy star has always been coming
back for more and more when ne met
the illusirious brother OF the moro H.
lustrlous Mike.
It certainly Is too bad that Miske
isn't a little heavier, for he possesses
more real lighting spirit than any OF
the heavyweights around tho country.
He would easily be a champion II he
could add a few more pounds.
