WOULD AVERT SUGAR FAMINE
Officials viii Try to, Prevent coneen-

troll Of the nations food supply by
transferring the authority of food ad-
ministrator to Attorney General Pal

Revival OF the wartime functions
or Administrator Hoover resulted di-
reetly from government efforts to

executive order signed by the Presi-

make it necessary the full pressure of

THREATEN NATION
WIDE RAIL STRIKE
Report Says that Brotherhood
Locals in Many Cities Are
Demanding WaIkOut.
LEADERS IN SECRET MEETING
Heads of Trainmen's Organization in
Session at Cleveland to Dis
euss Proposed Tieup.

Chicago National leaders of the
four great railway bTotherhoods held
a secret session recently at which the
insistence Of many local unions that
general strike of all railway workers
in the United States be called by De-
cember 1 to enforce demands for
general increase in pay, was given Sc
rious consideration, according to in
formation obtained from union rail-
way men. 1t was said by one union
official that many Of the delegates,
who are now in Cleveland, when there
with the specific purpose of forcing
the general committee to call the ma
tion-wide strike.
Wanted to Strike at Kansas City.
1t became known that the Kansas
City Local of the Brotherhood of Rail-
way Trainmen had telegraphed ma
tional officials of their organization
asking permission to call a strike of
trainmen and yardmen. 1t was re-
ported that the national officers re-
piled in such a way as to leave the
question entirely open and subject to
the decision of local officials.
The union officials in Chicago, from
whom the information was obtained,
stated that so far as they were aware
the secret conference in Cleveland
had not yet reached the point where
resolutions or motions for the strike
actually had been presented, but that
the discussion concerning it, accord
ing to their information, was favor
able to the project and that the tie
up could be expected within three
days. A similar announcement was
made at the convention of the newly
organized labor party here.
Follows Wage Demand Failure.
Buffalo, Detroit, Pittsburgh and St
Louis were declared to have been
among the cities whose locals were
particularly insistent that a strike be
called in view Of recent governmental
statements to the effect that general
advances in the pay Of railway work
ers could not be considered at this
time. The fourteen locals of the Chi
cago railway men, it was said, had
voted unanimously in favor of the
strike, and that resolution asking for
a strike decision had been sent to
W. G. Lee, president of the Brother
hood of Railway Trainmen.
In some union quarters it was stated
recently, that the real reason why the
national officers now in Cleveland hes
itated to make an announcement of
the strike or to be placed in the po-
sition of directing the proposed strike
call is their fear Of strike injunctions,
and that it is their purpose to await
the crisis, which is expected from the
action of the rank and file of railway
men.

SMALL MINES NAY RESUME
Governor Allen Believes Strip Mining
Will Soon Commence Again in
the Southeastern Counties.

Governor Henry J. Allen returned
recently from a three days trip
through the coal fields OF Cherokee
and Crawford countines. with suffi-
cient assurances, he claims, for the
announcement that mining coal will
be resumed in some OF the shovel or
strip mines.
He says he will return to the coal
fields to do what he can to augment
the output of coal. Even in case moth
ing happens to cause the resumption
OF the large mines, he anticipates that
the strip mines, working at ordinary
capacity, should have an output of TO-
600 to 1900 tons day by the end
Of the week
Many operators of what are known
as ''dinky" mines in the coal field are
members of the miners union. 1t was
largely this class of miners who as
sured the governor that they would
begin digging coal soon There is no
indication, it was said, that the large
mines would resume operation any
time soon, unless an agreement is
reached In the conference at Washing

ers were in the majority in the coal

EX-SENATOR PORTER IS DEAD
Long Illness Fatal to Crawford coun-
ty Man Who Served Is Years
in State Senate.

Eff Porter for sixteen years
state senator from Crawford county
and four years Of that time president
pro tenn of the senate, died at his
home in P1ttsburg recently. He had
been in poor health for several years
and his death was not unexpected.
About two years ago he suffered q

sion Of the Kansas legislature for ap1
preparations to keep the school grow

PUTS COAL FIGHT
UP TO The CABINET
Fuel Administrator Garfield
Says Public Must Not Bear
Increase IN Wages.
COST OF LIVING WILL GOVERN
Operators and Miners Told that Wages
Must Follow Trend of Prices
Necessaries.

Washington.-Settle of the con-
trOversy over a new wage agreement
ia the bituminous coal industry
awaits action by President Wilson's
cabinet.
Fuel Administrator Garfield speak
ing to the joint wage scale committee
of operators and miners, announced
five principles which have governed"
him and his associates, but different
interpretations were placed on its va
rious provisions by the workers and
the mine owners in informal discus
sions after the meeting.
DR.. Garfield called the miners and
operators together after a long con-
ference with Attorney General Palmer,
Director Hines and Assistant Attor-
ney General Ames.
At the next meeting of the cabinet
a definite decision of policy regard
ing all phases of the strike situation
is expected, and if the cabinet is in
disagreement the whole question may
be put before the President.
Owing to the disagreement which
had arisen as to the amount of the in
crease in the cost of living, and con-
seQuently the per cent of wage ad-
vance needed to meet higher living
costs. great significance was attached
to Dr. Garfield's declaration that "the
average total increase in pay over the
1913 base, which was the base consid-
cred in 1917, should not exceed the
present increase in the cost OF living
over the same base"
1T is also to be considered that the
cost of living will fall rather than rise
during the next few years." he added.
Operators construed this statement
as in conflict with the contention Of
Secretary Wilson that miners should
be given at 81 per cent wage advance
to eQualize the margin between pres
emit wages and 79 per cent rise in
living cost since.
Pointing out that war time coal
prices were fixed for the purpose of
stimulating production, DR.. Garfield
declared that the public would not now
pay the increase over normal profits
allowed during the war. His further
statement that any wage increase
should be borne by the operators or
the public or both" was generally
taken to mean that part of the ad-
vance must come out of the excess
profits OF the mining companies.
