Congress May Take Hand Il Con-
ference to Prevent Wakout
Does Not Agree.
MENACES ARE SERIOUS
Closing of Factories and Probable To-
up Of Transportation systemA Arc
Among Possibilities If Miners
Quit Work.

Washington, Oct. 21.-When the
scale committees of both the nine OD.
orators and the mine workers meet
with William B. Wilson, secretary Of
labor to discuss the threatened STRIKE
in the bituminous coal fields, more
than the issue of the strike will be at
stake, it is clear to Washington. The
question involves all of the issues be-
fore the Industrial conference and all
of the newer remedies put forward by
the railroad brotherhoods in the pro-
jected naturalization of railroads.
While the coal strike is pending, the
railroad. men are understood TO be
planning a last final demand upon the
Director General Of the Railroad I'D
ministration before the roads are Re-
turned to private ownership, with
threat of a strike in December witR
the urging of the plumb plan" of
railroad control in the background.
The first sufferers from the coal
strike would be the factories and a
general shut down of the mines would
undoubtedly tie up great 1nany
manufacturing industries, reducing
production and increasing the already
abnormally high cost of living. It
would also, it is anticipated, have the
effect of putting many members OF
union labor out Of employment and the
railroads Of the country would Soon be
compelled to suspend operation in part
and long continuance of the strike
would tie up the transportation sEs
TENS all together.
These Gerious menaces to the strike
situation are not being overlooked and
congressional action is being looked
forward to as the logical result of
failure of the miners and operators to
get together.

Early Showdown, in Their Ac-
ceptance or Rejection Is
Expected
9 SUBJECTS COVERED
Those Opposed to Treaty Submit
Proposals to Senate Foreign Re-
iations Committee for Action
Without Delay.

Washington, Oct. 22.-The question
OF accepting peace treaty reservations
without further opposition was earnest
ly considered by democratic sena!
leaders under the pressure Of develop
ments pointing to an early showdown

nouncing at last complete agreement
on a reservation program by the SEN
ate majority, brought the situation to
an unexpected issue by serving notice
that their proposal would 60 before the
foreign relations committee, when the
administration leaders would be asked
to go on record definitely as accepting
or rejecting it.
Regarded as U!timatum.
Described by the majority as in the
nature of an ultimatum, the announce
ment was followed by a conference on
the administration side, which lasted
all day but resulted in no final deci-
sion. Senators who were present said
that while some Of the leaders stood
out determinedly against any compro-
mise, there was al apparent DISPOSE
ton on the part of Senator Hitchcock
and others to consider seriously the
practica bility of such step.
The reservation program as it is to
be presented to the committee for ap-
prevail was not made public but it was
understood to embrace nine reserva-
tions, evolved from suggestions gath
cred from many sources. The subjects
said to be covered were the following:
The right Of this country to Judge
whether it's obligations had been full
filled in case of withdrawal from the
league of nations.
The unimpaired power of congress
to decide questions of peace or war
under Article 10.
Domestic decision of all domestic
questions.
Preservation unaffected Of the Mon.
roe Doctrine.
Refusal to be a party to the Shan
tung settlement:
Equalization of voting power in the
league.
Con ressional selection of American
representatives. the league.
Limitation of the powers Of such
representatives and those on interna-
tional Labor conference to challenge
the eligibility of the American repre-
sentatives in international labor
bodies.

SAYINGS OF LARRY Ho.

VA I A4V Nk0 w A3SAxSO4 x40s
A human heart should grow mellow
with age, as the apple does under the
touch of frost.
The SORROWS we keep silent about are
most apt to turn out not to be abiding
SORROWS.
First pick the real thing; then get a
good grip; then hang on.
Have you ever known a moment of
anger to prove worth while afterwards
If some man forgets that he is your
brother, you cannot afford to forget
that he is your brother.
A woman writes to newspaper,
"Shall scold a girl who firts with my
husbands" Now, would it not be bet
ter if that woman were to do little
flirting with her husband, herselfs
Maybe if you were in some other
mans shoes you d have to wear his
corns.
Be kind to your hobby-horse, for he
carries you on happier journey tf:.n
any other you may take.
It has been long time since .'csus
said man should love his neigh = as
himself. It was a very simple sage.
Now after all the years we car : ; that
most Of our failures navc be- =: due to
the fact that we have attempted to
solve life by abstract PHILOSOPHERS in
stead of by this human gospel, Tut
there is still time.
Tho real trouble in life l.; n. hat
some men have greater natural SYM
pathy than others, but rather that many
men have a narrower experience than
others. The average man does not
know how much SUFFERING and sorrow
in contact with it daily, he would be
more tender, sympathetic and helpful.
