against the operators entirely. The
next responsibility, tho, will be with
the mine workers.
Hopkins in his application for a
writ asserted that the operators are
technically violating the antitrust law,
that they have entered into an agree
ment regarding prices and have re-
fused to reopen their properties dur
ing the present strike. None of the
mines in the Pittsburg field is oper-
ating.
Won't Use NOn-UniOn Men.
The governor will not attempt to
use force or to send non-union work
ers into the field unless a. flat refusal
of his plan is made by the men in the
district.
II don't want>~to talk about next
moves" Governor Allen said. ''I hope
work. But 1 cannot say anything
about non-union workers or further
state action so long as there is a
chance that the workers in the field
will meet the states needs and de-
mands"
First Move in Country.
Action adopted by Governor Allen
is the first step of its nature in this
country. While martial law was de-
clared in North Dakota, no court or
ders have been secured in any of the
states and Kansas IS the first state to
seek g. direct proprietorship over the
property of the mine operators. The
request for a writ is sufficiently broad
to permit the receivers to handle the
detailed business of the mines. They
would be dismissed when the present
wage and hour controversy is settled
in Washington or in the various dis
tricts. While the existing wage scales
would doubtless apply. Governor Allen
favors retroactive allowance to the
miners of any wage approved by the
conference, such allowance covering
time of state operation. Mine owners
will be given a ton basis allowance for
their coal.
Under the decree sought today. the
state would provide for return of
workers in the Central Coal & Coke
more than 1.200 of them-have been
on a strike since late last summer.

NlsH, April i.-Al along the main
highway from north to south Of Serbia
practically eli the buildings are with
out windows or doors.
The retreatihg Bulgarlans and Ger
mans limited their work OF destruction
in many places to this. Whether they
wanted the window frames and sashes
for fuel: whether they took the win
dows away with them, or whether Il
was merely wanton destruction, is not
known. In some regions they seem TO
have placed al explosive under the
window frame. There remained only
the ragged edges of the wall where the
window frame had been and a gaping
hole in the wall below.
Window glass is mol TO be had in

buildings remain unusued, but In a.
humber Of places the window space is
