ALL RESTRICTIONS
 ON FUEL ARE OFF
Railroad Administration is De- livering Coal Wherever De- mand Requires-Probe Still is Under Way.

Washington, Dec. 16.-The Senate coal investigation committee, resum- ing today it's inquiry into the daminis tration strike settlement agreement, was told by Tracy W. Guthrie, presi- dent of the Hillman Coal and Coke company, that one clause in President Wilson's proposition would "bring about an increase in the miners wages at least doubling the IA per cent which Dr. H. A. Garfield, resigned fuel ad- ministrator, thought justified"
 While the Senate committee was pursuing its inquiry, the railroad ad- ministration withdrew the last semb- lance of the restrictions on fuel and began delivering coal to original con- sumers instead of distributing it to points of greatest need. It rescinded the embargo on fuel oil being shipped east of St. Louis and the orders re- ducing the amount of coal permitted to So tO cOke ovens.
 At the White House today it was said that President Wilson would not appoint a commission provided in the strike settlement proposal until At torney General Palmer returns to Washington late this week.
 The senatorial inquiry was reopened with the calling of R. V. Norris, en- gineer for the fuel administration, who was conducted by Senator Ere linghuysen, New Jersey, chairman of the committee, and Senator Townsend, Michigan, through maze of statis- tics bearing on labor costs and prices of necessities.
 Secretary of Labor Wilson pro- posed that the miners be given an increase of 31.67 per cent" MT. Nor ris explained, because he based his calculations on the pay paid pick min- CTS. In 1917, when the coal mine wages were readjusted, the pick min CTS were getting the greatest amount, and the scales were balanced up by giving them lesser increase than other classes of labor around the mines. This was necessary in order to induce men to do the other work.
 "Dr. Garfield decided that a par ticular wage ought not to serve now as a basis for calculations, and took the average wage of all workers. After arriving at that, he found that an addition of IA per cent to their earnings would compensate them for the cost of living since the last adjust ments were made.

RAILWAYS HEADED FOR RECEIVERSHIP
Cummins Warns Congress of Rocks Ahead Unless Law is Put Through-Fight Strike Clause.

Washington, Dec. 15. Congress was warned today that if the railroads were turned back to their owners with out enactment meanwhile of legisla- ton for protection of the properties. two-thirds of the roads would be in the hands of receivers within thirty days.
 Speaking with earnestness, Chair man Cummins of the Senate interstate commerce committee that drafted the pending railroad bill, declared the Senate could not afford oset it aside or delay it's consideration in view of the apparent determination of Presi- dent Wilson to end government con- trol the first day of the New Year.
 During the all-day debate the prin- cipal attacks on the Cummins bill were made by Senators Lenroot, Re- publican, of Wisconsin, and Stanley Democrat, of Kentucky, the former insisting that the roads should be re- tained by the government until spring.
 Senator Stanley, speaking in SUD- port of his amendment to eliminate the anti-strike provision, assailed the section as "the most drastic and exas perating" ever devised to aff1ict labor ing people.
 The anti-strike provision, Senator Stanley said, was put in the bill over the protest of two million railroad men who had declared they would not wear the yoke. It was so drastic, he added, that if man employed with his wife in a waybill office took a

WOODMEN OF WORLD
 PROTEST AGAINST RAISE

Little Rock, Dec. 16.-A convention of about one hundred delegates from various Woodmen of the World camps over the state held an all-day session at the state capitol yesterday for the organization of the Protective League of the Woodmen of the World and the Woodmen Circles.
 A resolution was adopted by vote of 34 to 29, demanding the resigna- tion of H. W. Applegate of Jonesboro, head consul of the Woodmen of the World for the state of Arkansas. He is asked to resign because "he no longer represents the majority of the Woodmen of this state in that he now favors the new rates established by the Sovereign Camp"
 An executive committee to carry on the fight against the proposed in- crease in rates was elected
 Resolutions were also adopted pro- testing against the action of the Sov- ereign Camp in Chicago last July in providing for an increase in the rates; against the increase in the salary of w. A. Fraser, sovereign grand com- mander, from $12,5OO to $25,OO0 a year, and increases in the salaries of other sovereign officers; protesting against the action of the sovereign commander that he would not recog- nize any more sovereign camp appli- cations after Oct. 1, 1919, as another of the exercises by the sovereign com mander of his arbitrary and illegal methods and an attempt to disrupt the Woodmen of the World;" also, that no paid employe of the Woodmen of the World be reelected as a delegate to the head camp, convention or to the next sovereign camp convention.

better job with another road and the wife went with him, both could be ar- rested and put in jail for conspiracy
 General discussion of the anti-strike clause brought numerous references to the coal strike and Senator Stanley, Tn arguing against anti-strike laws, said that in the case of the miners they were held back both by an in- junction and by solemn notice of the president of the United States that their strike was unlawful.
 "They would not have gone back to work because an act of congress said Sc, when they refused after being named in an injunction issued by a man they knew, Federal Judge Ander- son, as devoid of the touch of human sympathy as marble column" Sena- tor Stanley declared
 Senator Cummins interiected that if there had been law under which the miners dispute could have been submitted to an impartial tribunal, there would have been no strike.
 Even within sound of the growl of the Bolshevist, Senator Stanley con- tinued, attempts were being made to try out new fangled ideas and he pre- dicted that it might not be long before "hygienic uplifters" tried to form some sort of a commission to select wives for men.
 After Senator Stanley had deferred the rest of his speech until tomorrow the Senate went to work on amend ments.
