Fire Chief " U Webster Tuesday afternoon from New York, from where it had been sent by Gen eral" F. B. Kaley, of the executive committee of the American Thread company. Last February Chief Web ster planned to establish an office in this room and since that time has been watching for a chance to get some office furniture. This was learn ed of by Austin D. Boss. agent of the local plant of the American Thread company. who inmede tely got in touch with the New York office, tell ing them of the needs of the local fire men. Tuesday afternoon the desk was received and an office chair will ar rive in due time The new office of Chief Webster will be on the main floor of the building just off the hall where the fire apparatus is stationed, and the desk has been moved into that room. The desk which is described by the men as a dandy answers the need of the chief and is another ex- ample of the generosity of the officials of the Thread Company in lending a hand when t is most needed.

 No Damage to Coal Mines.
 The union officials said the mine owners and public could rest assured that no act of the organization would the coal diggings. They pointed out that the strike order provided that To- cal unions must allow sufficient linen to remain at work to insure the proper care and protection of all mining properties in conformity with the pro visions of the district agreements in the several fields"
 Statistics by Miners.
 Building fences against charges that the demand for six hour working day was calculated to reduce production, the statisticians of the union assem- bled figures which they said proved that even the country's peak produc- ton of 6S5.000, 900 tons of bituminous coal in 1918 was not the limit of the industry. They said this was dug with the mines averaging only about 70 per cent. of capacity and with the skilled working force reduced by Se.006 miners in the army and navy. Out of a possi-. b1e 3l2 working days in the year. they said western Pennsylvania miners av- eraged e60. Indiana 24s. Illinois 22s and Ohio PA. The bulk of the bituminous tonnage comes from those states.
 Against this record they set figures for 1919 which they said showed that the mines had operated at not to ex- ceed 50 per cent. of the time. Despite this reduction in time, they said the 1919 production of the country up to Oct. IS was s79 9,ooo.eo0 tons. only ios,- aoQ. 900 tons less than in the same pe- riod of 1918. They estimated that the mine workers will not average more than 1se working days in 1919 and claimed that a full working force working steadily throughout the year can produce 800 ,eeeooo tons if need be. They said the estimated needs of the country for 1920 were $50, ,ooO. 900 tons.

The story is this. Harold L. Arnold

of Essex cars, was told that the trail
to the Devils Punch Bowl was too
hazardous for women drivers. He OBJ
jected, and claimed if they were given
the right sort of a car, such as an Es-
sex, they could make it across the Mo-
jave desert and to the Bowl. Did they
do it? They did and Bob Battle of
Los Angeles, who was the doubling
person, lost a thousand dollars with
which he had backed his judgment
