Mine WORKERS SEEK
help FROM GARFIELD
President of Organization Declare.
Situation Needs Drastic Action.

Frank J. Hayes, president Of the
United Mine Workers Of America,
came to Washington yesterday for a
conference with DR.. Harry A. Gar
field. fuel. administrator, over the
serious labor situation in the bitumin-
Gus fields.
Mr.. Hayes contends that thousands
of miners are out Of work, and the
situation Is growing worse, because
mine production has fallen of at the
very time when it should be increas-
ing. DR.. Garfield will take up the sit
uation today.
The Central West Virginia OPERA
tors Association added their protest
over conditions in the Fairmont-
Clarksburg district, saying:
Coal car supply Fairmont- -CIarks-
burg region so very poor that miners
are leaving by the wholesale rather
than face starvation with but a DAYS
work per week. Advices from various
sources indicate that large number
additional miners will leave region to-
day. after pay day; some mines will
lose their entire force. This will have
a disastrous effect on production. una
less matter is taken in hand at once
and car supply is Immediately in

McAdoo Refuses to Add
Short Lines to Federal
System.

Shortline railroads are complaining
to Congress because. they say, the
Railroad Administration Is ignoring
the intent Of the railrood act in re-
fusing to place many Of them under
Federal protection.
A convention of the shortline in
teeests il negotiating with the aids
OF Director McAdoo. So far they
have received no encouragement, and
the protests to Congress has resulted.
Members of both Houses Of Con-
gress have been surprised to learn
that they did not, as they had un-
derstood, legislate in such a manner
as to force the railroad administration
to take the little roads along with the
big ones. One section of the bill
provides, It has developed. that all
lines must be made a part Of the
Federal system. But another one, not
much noticed. permits the Director
General to turn back any line to its
owners before July 1.
According to the shortline man
ayers, practically all the small roads
are thus being told to shift for them
selves
A still more serious situation re-
suits from the fact that the roads
induced Congress to reject the pro-
posal Of Director General McAdoo to
give them as fair traffic arrangements
as he could. without taking them
over. They are now without the pro-
lection OF either OF the opposing sug-
gestionS made for their relief.
Chairman Simms, of the House In
terstate Commerce Committee. said
last night he did not think the short
lines protests would be needed. He
said he intended to back the policy Of
the administration.

MANISM.

Sioux Falls, March 1S.-It is re-
ported from Frankfort that Prof. T..
Il. Young. until recently principal of
the public schools at that place has
had his contract Cancelled by the
board of education because of his al
legged pro-German sympathies and
because of recent developments in
connection Herewith.
Several days ago, following the re-
ceipt of advices by Sheriff Hansen
and States Attorney Beckman, of
Sphinx county, that harm was likely
to befall the principal of the schools,
they made a quick trip to Frankfort
and escorted the school teacher to
the county jail for ~safekeeping.
1t is alleged that the high school
students had arranged a program for
a school entertainment, one of the
features being a salute of the stars
and stripes to be led by Prof. Young
The principal is alleged to have pre-
vented the entertainment being held.
There also had been other trouble
before this in connection with the
singing of patriotic songs. After
canceling his contract on his return
from Redfield the school board is
alleged to have instructed the de-
posed principal to get out of town as
fast as possible.

Word of their presence in the city
