FUEL ADMINISTRATOR
GIVEN MORE POWER
May Divert Supplies Of Coal and
Coke to Meet Emergency De-
mands In North Dakota.

Formal authority to divert coal or
coke to meet emergency demands of
domestic consumers was conferred on
Capt. l. p. Baker, federal fuel ad-
ministrator for North Dakota, and
upon similar officers in other states
in a regulation recently promulgated
by United States Fuel Administrators
Harry A. GARFIELD.
Whenever the state administrator
may determine that any locality or
community is liable to suffer through
lack of fuel, either because Of an ac-
equal distribution Of coal In such
community, or when he finds such a
shortoge Of fuel on the port Of a pub
lie utility conducting a service essen
tial to the health, convenience or in
dustrial activity Of any Of the people
of the state, he may divert for the use
Of such domestic consumers or pub
lie utility any coal or coke in tram
sit by railroad or other conveyance,
within the state and consigned for de-
livery to any consumer, dealer, or
other party for consumption or sale
within the state.
As soon os possible otter such
diversion the state administrator will
notify both shipper and consignee of
the coal or coke so diverted, and the
shipper thereof will be expected, so
far and as soon as practical, to re-
place for such consignee an equal
amount Of coal or coke Of the same
grade and quantity as that diverted.
No need for such action has yet
arisen in North Dakota.

cal survey to exceed 200 100000, 900
tons, fuel sufficient for the needs Of
the whole nation for 500 years to
come.
Tag Your Shower day has the en-
dorsement of President Wilson and
Governor Frazier. Many states have
arranged unusual obseryances for
the occasion. In Florida, State Fuel
Administrator Arthur T. Williams
has arranged that not only shall the
shovel Of the governor of Florida be
tagged, but he finds that three dis
tinguished American citizens are
wintering in the state, and he has
planned to have each OF them do his
part.
F'Iorida's guests include Thomas A.
Edison, William Jennings Bryan and
'Marse" Henry Watterson, the great
Louisville editor. Mr.. EdisOn's
shovel will be tagged by Jacksonville
high school girls; Mr.. Bryan's by the
Honor Guard, a patriotic organtza-
ton of young women, and Mr.. Wat
terson's by a committee of army off,
GERS from Camp. Joseph r. Johnston.
All of these distinguished citizens

Syllabus: Where an acceleratiOn
clause in a mortgage provides that
upon the default Of the mortgagor it
shall be legal for the mortgages to
declare the whole sum secured by
the mortgage TO be due, the entire
debt does not become due upon the
failure to pay an installment note so
as to start the statute Of limitations
running against the action to fore
close, in the absence of a declaration
to that effect by the holder Of the
mortgage.
ca. For the purpose Of applying
the statute Of limitations. the cause
of action to foreclose a mortgage is
to be considered independently, and
is not affected by the statute Of limi-
tations barring an action to enforce a
personal liability upon the notes Sc
cured by the mortgage.
49,. Where a mortgage Is given TO
secure an entire debt which is rep
resented by installment notes, fall
ing due at different dates, and where
it does not appear that the holder Of
the mortgage elected, under the &C
clause, to treat the whole
sum as due upon the default in the
payment of one Of the notes first
the cause of action to fore
close the mortgage for the entire debt
will he held to have first accrued up
on the maturity Of the last note.
a.. Where the language of a
statute Is apparently susceptible of
an Interpretation which would render
it unconstitutional as authorizing the
taking Of property without due proc
ess of law: If possible, the statute
will be so construed as to render 1t
constitutional, and to this end It may
be given a limited application.
80. Section 687S, G. L. 1913, con-
strued and held not to authorize the
of an attorneys lien by
under the provisions
Of section 1885, G. L. 1913.
90. The purchase, at a void fore
closure sale, Of papers which are sub
jeCt to an attorneys lien, is held, un-
der the circumstances of this case, to
entitle the purchaser, in equity, to the
benefit Of the claim upon which the
lien is based.

Crisis As Viewed In London.


London, Jan. 22-Austria- Hun
gary's cry for peace, accompanied
apparently by a condition of incipient
revolt, is featured by the morning
newspapers as a fact that is hurry
ing the dual monarchy to a crisis.
London dispatches from Amsterdam
show that the workers have become
desperate because of lack Of food and
general war WEAKNESS.
There is an evident connection of
the strike movement with the nego-
tiations at Brest- Litovsk which have
encouraged the socialists to insist
that the war shall not be prolonged,
merely for the purpose for territOr-
ial aggression.
While most newspapers here attach
the greatest Importance to the up
heaval and some infer that the Aus
trian government is encouraging the
movement in a genuine endeavor to
create peace, the fact that the CEN
sorship has permitted reports to be
telegraphed from Vienna with I'M
wonted freedom, suggests to other
commentators that there may be a
deliberate purpose behind the license
allowed in Vienna.
Reports from Switzerland mention
the arrest Of peace demonstrators at
some places in Austria. Clashes be-
tween hungry civilians and soldiers
are reported, while in some instances
it is said the soldiers refused to fire
on the demonstrators when ordered
to do so. At Gratz where the trou-
Bile is acute, the soldiers abandoned
their loaded machine guns to the
rioters.

mier, has resigned and that DR.. WEEK

IMPLICATION OF
N. E. CHURCHES
IS BIG ISSUE

Judge Charles A. Pollock Of Fargo,
member Of the judiciary committee
or the supreme court of the Mctho-
dist church, and chairman Of the
temperance committee at the last
general conference Of the North
church at Saratoga, n. Y, held two
years ago, left yesterday for Savan-
nah, Georgia, to attend the final
meeting Of the joint commission,
which has before it the question Of
the unification of the Methodist
churches Of the North and the South.
In 1874, the Methodist Episcopal
church split upon the question Of
slavery. A new body was formed in
the south under the name of the
Methodist episcopal church, South.
There is no difference in creed. ritual,
church pOlity or character of ad-
ministration. Ever since the war
the two bodies have tried to get to-
gether. In the parent, or Northern
church, there are over four million
members; in the southern, over
three million, and there are besides
about 300, 900 members of the Mctho-
dist Protestant church, another
branch Of the parent church which
broke off on the subject of lay rep
resentation.
"A plan for bringing these three
bodies together in one church has
been finally proposed which seems to
meet with quite general approval,
provided we can agree upon the
status of the negro members" said
Judge Pollock, before leaving. THE
duplication of effort by these sister
churches has shown the necessity. Of
union. In the last four or five gem
eral conferences Of the churches
North and South repeated efforts
have been made to solve all the prob
lens presented.
AT the general conference of the
North church at Saratoga two years
ago the senior bishop of the southern
conference was a constant attendant,
urging union Of the churches. Our
Senior Bishop Cranston is devoting
all his time and energy to this work"
Judge Pollock stated that a joint
commission has been appointed by
the general conference of each church,
consisting Of fifty members, twenty
five from each church. Each church
is represented by five bishops, ten
preachers and ten laymen.
ITO unite eight millions Of people
is task well worthy Of the highest
possible effort" said Judge Pollock.
''The final meeting of the joint com
mission will be held at Savannah,
Georgia, beginning Jan. %, and it is
expected two weeks will be required
to complete the work.

LABOR DEMANDS
RECOGNITION AT
PEACE CONGRESS-
OF BELLIGERENTS.
Resolutions to be Submit
ted at Conference of
British Party

London, Jan. 22.-(Correspondence
of The Associated Press -Demands
for the calling Of an immediate or
early conference Of representatives of
labor from all countries to discuss
peace will be among the most impor-
tant of the resolutions to be submit
ted to the conference of the British
Labor Party, to be held at Noting
ham tomorrow and on the two days
following. Three resolutions request
ing such action have been prepared
for submission to the conference by
the Independent Labor Party, the
Socialist party and the Glasgow
Trades Council. ..
Various phases of the peace cues
ton apparently will be dominant in
the discussions. Declaration that the
time has arrived for peace negotia-
ton Is made in four resolutions to be
submitted by the labor organizations
OF Bristol, Norwich, Leicester and
York.
A demand that labor be permitted
representation in the eventfuI peace
congress of the beIligerent powers, or
that an international labor confer
ence be held simultaneously with the
peace congress, is set forth by labor
bodies Of Great Yarmouth and Bris-
toll
Withdrawal of all labor members
from ministerial office under the
present government is demanded in
eight resolutions prepared by the
British Socialist Party or by labor
bodies, on the ground that continu-
ance of labor members in the ser
vice Of a government which permits
exploitation Of the people by the
capitalists is contrary to labor in
terests and a violation Of the party
constitution.
One such resolution from East Ham
bases its demands on "the continual
bare-faced- robbery Of the people by
the food pirates" and suggests that
any laborer who refuses to resign,
should be expelled from the party,
Capitalist food thieves" are strongly
denounced, and the government is
urged to handle the food problem so
as to eliminate profiteering and secure
equality of sacrifice. There is like
