Elephants May Play Part
in the Reconstruction
of War.Torn Europe

PITTSBURGH, Sept. g. John
Ringing. circus owner, has determin-
ed to propose to allied governments
that African elephants be tanned and
used in the reconstruction Of France
after the war
Because gun and shell fire at the
battle fronts are slaughtering mules
and horses by the tens of thousands,
Mr.. Ringing and Edmond Laplea, of
the University of Louvain, Belgium
in conference here the other day and
discussed plans for using the hereto
fore African elephant in reconstruc-
ton work in Europe
The men agreed that the loss Of
horses and mules could not be replac-
ed for many years, and, since African
elephants may be found in vast num-
bers, and be tanned easily, both felt
positive that the allies would assist in
the shipment of the big beasts.
"One elephant will do the work Of
26 horses" said Mr. Laplea who has
charge of the Belgian governments
business in the Congo. Europe must
be reconstructed and there will be no
horses. We are using the African
elephant in carrying timber from the
forest, in blowing and in all kinds of
farm work. He carries and lifts beams
and Orders for the construction of
buildings"

MINING ENGINEERS
DISCUSS FUEL NEEDS

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo, Sept.
3.-SeVenty per cent. more coke than
ever before will be available this year
to help solve the fuel shortage. This
supply will be further increased by the
development of tar, coke oven gas and
other by-products newly dignified in
war time as available fuels These
were some new facts presented to the
American Institute of Mining Engl-
neers in session here today in their
effort to fill some of the country 5
needs.
The pulverizing of coal to attain
the greatest efficiency was advocated
before the mining engineers. Some of
the advantages of pulverized coal
were stated as follows: The utiliza-
ton Of every heat unit in the coal,
the reduction of labor for handling
coal. the maintenance of a constant
temperature in the furnace.
The mining engineers were also told
that coal mining in the state of Wash
ington had proven less profitable in
recent years because of the extensive
use of fuel Oil 1t was predicted that
higher prices for fuel oil would in
crease the mining of coal on this part
of the western coast.
The institute planned today to hold
a memorial service for the late Dr.
James Douglas, mining engineer and
the former president Of the institute.

Labor Day This Year Epoch
in History Of Occasion, La
Dor Leaders Saw.

This Labor day marks an epoch in
the history of the occasion" said F. J.
Dillon OF Indianapolis. at the Labor
day celebration at Beallview 1T is
The most important of all Labor days
lor IT comes at time when the hosts
or democracy are engaged in strug-
gle with the hosts of autocracy, when
democracy is matter Of the right not
only TO live freely but to live in the
midst OF advantages which alone can
make free living a thing to be desired.
The rights Of labor are inevitably
bound up with the progress Of de-
mocracy, and the hosts OF organized
labor are pledging themselves to back
democracy to the limit-to give the
last drop of blood il necessary.
Men have suffered for the cause
OF labor, men Of conviction and sterl-
ing character. I say that If the en-
ployers refuse labor the right to or
ganize they are in the same category
with the militarists abroad who be-
lieve that only the privileged class
has any such privilege.
Employers of labor although there
are many splendid men among them,
with worthy ideals. employ labor on
the basis of brofit and too often fall
short Of realizing that they have hui
man needs to deal with"
The laboring man wants the finer
Things of life, music, literature, edu-
cation and culture in general, but he
can never get these things nor sup
ply his family with them If he must
work fourteen hours day, for a
consideration which only enables him
To make n living We need more sons
and more daughters Of laboring men
in colleges and universities. They
will never get there at the present
wages Of labor.
Labor has too long been held by
employers as a commodity The Unit
ed States government says that labor
Is not a commodity; it is a thing with

The laboring man must keep in
mind that he Is working for the good
of all men," said w. n. Miller. labor
organizer of indianapolis.
There is a sort of stigma attached
n the word union. The employers
call their unions organizations, but
regardless of the name, II you are a
member of a labor union you will
learn to respect your fellow worker,
because you are able to understand
him better
Lucius Harrison, U. d. Hartman,

made general remarks on the labor
situation.
The men present were urged to

ut costs a lot to live and Just as
much to die, and now It's going to
cost you more on your sick bed to lie"
That is the sad refrain which comes
to the public from the members Of
the Nurses Alumni association, who
at a session last evening at the Moline
public hospital voted to increase their
weekly rates from $25 to $50, due to
the war"
Having gone this far, it was just a
step to make it $35 a week for taking
care of contagious diseases, except for
diphtheria and smallpox patients, who
will be charged according to their
financial ability, which will necessar-
lily mean that all newspaper men will
be cared for free Of charge.
If contagious cases require constant
care of two nurseAit will cost but the
trifiing sum of $25 a week, and where
less than a weeks time is taken, the
daily stipend will be an even five
bones.
All Of the rest OF the session was Of
no consequence to the public, except
that the new scale Is effective Feb. 1.
The local association voted to affiliate
with the Fifth District Nurses asso-
citation. thereby becoming connected
with the state and national bodies.
Under this action nurses will be re-
quired to register with the associa-
ton.
