Wilson Urges Coal
Miners to Avert
Serious Shortage
Should Work Full Time, He
Says, in Proclamation
to Industry
Situation Dangerous
Workmen Are Told They
Should Accept Deferred
Classification if Drafted

WASHINGTON, Aug. 11.-Coal miners
and operators we're called upon in a
proclamation by President Wilson
made public to-day, to give their maxi
mum effort to the production of coal to
the end that threatened shortage next
winter may be avoided. The President
asked the miners particularly to work
full time, and urged those who arc es-
sential to the industry to accept de-
ferred classification in the draft.
"The existing scarcity of COAL"
said the proclamation, "is creating
grave dangcr--in fact, the most
serious which confronts us-and
calls for prompt and vigorous action
on the part of both operators and
miners Without an adequate supply
our war programme will be retarded,
the effectiveness of our fighting
forces in France will be lessened,
the lives of our soldiers will be un-
necessarily endangered and their
hardships increased, and there will
be much suffering in many homes
throughout the country during the
coming winter.
oiH well aware CnaC your ranks
have been seriously depleted by the
draft, by voluntary enlistment and
by the demands of other essential
industries. This handicap can be
overcome, however, and sufficient
coal can be mined in spite of it, if
every one connected with the indus
try, from the highest official to the
youngest boy, will give his best work
each day for the full number of work
hours.
"Those who are drafted but who
are essential will be given deferred
classification, and it is their patriotic
duty to accept it. And it is the patri-
otto duty Of their friends and neigh
bors to hold them in high regard for
doing so. The only worker who de-
serves the condemnation of his COM
munity is the one who fails to give
his best in this crisis; not the one
who accepts deferred classification
and works regularly and diligently
to increase the coal output"

Plan
Of reight Delivery
Being Worked Out

James S. Harlan, Interstate Com
merce Commissioner, who is planning
the installation of the system of store
door delivery of freight in New York
City, issued statement yesterday in
regard to the general situation which
corrected some Understandings in
regard to the application and working
of the proposed system.
On every hand the plan is receiving
cordial cooperation and approval" said
Commissioner Harlan, "and rapid prog
ress is being made in forming an or
ganization. The public realizes the
necessity of store door delivery as a
war measure and as one that must be
taken to put the railroad facilities Of
this port in condition during the fall
and winter to meet the extraordinary
burdens that will fall on them.
Opening Date Not Fixed
There seems to be an impression
that the store-door delivery service
will be inaugurated August Is. That
date, however, was suggested tenta-
lively only and in the hope that be-
ginning might be made at about that
time. Ample public announcement will
be made before the service is inaugu-
Iateo, ana means Will be adopted for
giving publicity to the details of the
service and the rules and regulations
when they shall have been worked out.
We shall have an important general
meeting of the teaming and trucking
interests this week.
There seems to be an impression
among some receivers of freight that
the store-door delivery will not apply
to carload traffic. This is an error. It
is not our purpose to extend the service
to carload traffic received on public
team tracks, but carload traffic re-
ceived at freight piers will necessarily
come under the store-door service.
Must Keep Piers Clear
"The underlying purpose of this SER
vice is to keep the piers free at all
times from freight accumulations,
Manifestly this purpose cannot be ac-
complished unless carload as we'll as
less than carload traffic is included in
the general store door service.
I'm general, that service will extend
to all freight arriving at railroad piers
on Manhattan Island south of Fifty
ninth Street. Some difficult questions
nave been suggested as to carload traf-
nc, and 1T is my earnest desire to take
a practical view of these matters, so as
to produce the least possible disturb
ance to the receiving of FREIGHT

Even So Saith Simon the Wise
German Emperor Descendant of Profaner Of Judah Even
Aaron Guberman Agrees but Rival Sages Clash on
Other Points at Jewish Orthodox Meeting

Alter Simon, the sage of Hester
Street, known also as Simon the Wise,
had his triumph yesterday at meet
ing of the Jewish Orthodox League at
223 Henry Street, as even Aaron
Gluberman, rival sage and student of
the Talmud, had to acknowledge. In
certain minor points, black bearded
Aaron contended, Simon the Wise mis-
read the chronicles. but as to his dis
covery that the German Kaiser, Will
helm H. was the direct descendant of
Sennacherib son of Sargon, there could
be no doubt.
1t was patriotic meeting of the
league at which Simon the Wise sprung
his sensation, and some fifty bearded
and skull capped patriarchs joined in
singing "The ar-Spangled Banner" in
Yiddish when Isser Reznik called the
session to order. For six months the
red beard of Simon the Wise had
struggled across pages of the Talmud.
Kaiser Found in Talmud
II have found the first Kaiser in the
Ialmud," he proclaimed, and the meet
ing gave him it's undivided attention.
"More than 1900 years ago this AS
syrian King. son of Sargon, profaner

Here blackbearded Aaron, who had
been tidgetting ever since the first
words OF Simon the Wise focused at
tentlon upon him, interrupted, crying:
1T IS not so, for it is written that
they were captains"
Simon the Wise upset his chair with
crash in wheeling to confront and

Sufragists A gain
To Defy Police at
White House Today
Women Declare They Will
Attempt a New Pro-
test Parade
Especial Dispatch to The Tr,bune)


WASHINGTON, Aug. 11.-Undaunted
by what they maintain was the illegal
breaking up of their meeting last Tues
day by the police and the arrest of
forty eight of the women taking part in
it, sutfragists are planning to continue
their demonstration in Lafayette
Square tomorrow afternoon.
The new open air meeting, set for
the day before, the trial of the women
arrested last week, the suffragists say,
comes in response to protests from all
sections of the country at the course
taken by the police in breaking up a
peaceful meeting in public park
The same speakers, many of the
same banner bearers, including thirty
of the women now under arrest and a
number of women who will come espe-
cially for this demonstration, will tes-
tify to their belief in the right Of
American women to petition their
President and Senate in Lehalf of their
immediate acknowledgements.
The American flag will again be car
ried at the head of the procession by
Miss Hazel Hunkins, of Billings, Mont.
After her will come the famous Inez
Milholland banner, "How long must
women wait for liberty?'
The only new banner carried will
read: "Mr President, what will you
do for woman suffrage?"
AS before, the procession of suf-
fragists will form in front of the Ma
tional Woman's party headquarters,
parade down the west side of Lafayette
Square and along Pennsylvania Avenue
and group themselves around the statue
of Lafayette. The speakers will again
stand at the base, and the banner bear
ers with their brilliant tricolors will
surround the statue.
Among the speakers will be Miss
Lucy Burns, of Brooklyn; Miss Edith
Amigo, of Jamestown, N. Y; Mrs. W.
D. Ascough, of Hart ford, Conn; Miss
Elsie Hill, of Norwalk, Conn, and
Miss Gladys Greiner, of Baltimore,
All of these women are at present un-
der arrest.
Among the banner bearers will be
Mrs. William Colt, of New York City:
Mrs. William Watson, of Chicago, and
Mrs. Benton MacKaye. of Washington.
