COLD WAVE BEGINS
EASTERN INVASION

Chicago, Dec. 10.--(By A. P.)-
Below zero temperatures prevailed to-
day from the Mississippi valley to the
Sierra Nevada region and the cold wave
began its eastern invasion with sub
normal temperatures of 20 to 90 de-
grees. In parts Of the western country
already hardest hit by the fuel shortage,
many small cities and towns were des-
titute of coal and suffering was re-
ported, Montana and northern Idaho
were the chief sufferers.
Presaging extension of the cold wave
into the East and Southeast heavy
transforms were prevalent through those
sections yesterday, with extensive
property damage in Georgia, Alabama
and Mississippi and loss of three lives
near Atlanta. Ga, in flood waters
Railroad service was seriously handi
capped and city streets inundated by the
almost unprecedented rainfall.
About Redding, Calf, five inches o.
snow had fallen today. 1t gradually
deepened northward to Bend. Ore.
where twenty eight inches. the heavies

DAILY NOVELETTE,
A PARTY FOR jim
By MATTE A. RAMSAY

LIE HAD been chucklins to himself
4 4 all day, for that morning he had
leased an apartment and had n big sur
prise for Dorothy. They had been mar
ried in May. upon his return from
France. and on account of the housing
shortage they had been obliged to live
In room and take their meals out.
He was In the gayest of spirits. Dor
othy, who, under the circumstances
had retained her position, was home
ahead of him, She was combing her
hair as he crossed over to kiss her
md demolish her coiffure. She laughed
and kissed his cheek and began comb
ing again.
Then with boyish eagerness he told
her of the apartment. how his sister
had heard of it and how happy they
would be. And what stroke of wis
dom that had been when they had
bought their furniture Mt the reduced
simmer rates. All day HIS thoughts
had evoked such cOsey pictures, and he
had spoken with such enthusiasm that
at first he wasn't conscious of Dor
othy's lack of spontaneous approval.
His cheeriness vanished. He subject
ed her to a sharp scrutiny. 1T sound,

I'm famished.'
Her tone had been a trihe careless
and noncommittal. Still, he told him
self that he must not be too exacting
He admitted that it was rather high
handed of him to have taken the Who'll,
responsibility. He should have consult
ed her. Going back from the restau
rant he apologized, but the atmospher,
did not clear.
Lets have it all straight out, Dor
othy," he said quietly, once more il

He fixed his eyes upon her with ar

of his longing for a home, and will

lOrS.
have watched with deep concern the
developments in the bituminous coal
strike and am convinced there il much
confusion in the minds of the people
generally, and possibly of both parties
to this unfortunate controversy, as to
the attitude and purposes of the gov
ernment in its handling of the situa
tion.
The mine owners offered n wage in
crease of 20 per cent, conditioned, how
ever, upon tn price of coal being raised
to an amount sufficient to cover this
proposed increase of wages, which
would have added at least $3.50 900, ,000
to the annual coal bill of the people,
The fuel administrator, in the light oi
present information, has taken the po
sition. and l think with entire justi'
fication, that the public is now paying
as high prices for coal as 1t ought tC
be required to pay, and that any wage
increase Mt this time ought to come
out of the profits of the coal operators
In reaching this conclusion the fue
administrator expressed the persona
opinion that the ii per cent increase il
all mine wages is reasonabl because il
would equalize the miners wages on thu
average with the cost of living; but h,
made it perfectly clear that the oprr'
ators and miners are at liberty TO agree
upon a larger increase provided thu
operators will pay it out of their profits
so that the price of coal would remair
the same.
The secretary of labor, in an effort a
Cancellation between the parties, ex'
pressed his personal opinion in favpl
of n larger increase. His effort as con
ciiation failed, however, because tn
coal operators were unwilling to pa!
the scale he proposed unless the gov
ernment would advance the price of coa
to the public, and this the government
was unwilling to do.
The fuel administrator had also sug
gested that tribunal be created, II
which the miners and operators woult
be equally represented to consider fur
ther questions of wages and working
conditions as well as profits of operator
and proper prices for coal. l shall, o
course, be glad to aid in the formation
of such tribunal.

ought TO know. SO she told her that
when they had begun to criticize and
scold at her, TO quote his sister, Jim
had refused to hear n word, and told
them that ne would defend her against
anybody.
Tears filled Dorothy's eyes. Then she
confessed that she had been house
hunting and was thoroughly disbeaft-
ened. She wanted to begin where she
and Jim had started, when they used
to talk over all the happenings OF the
day. Now they were almost strangers.
Jennie had been begged to help and
she did. Through her were located four
rooms in modern apartments. Dorothy
was jubilant. With gratitude, she as
scented and acted upon Jennie's sug..
gestion that she take Jim's mother and
sister into her confidence, for Jennie was
anxious to see that breach spanned.
The next week Dorothy worked hard
and late. Everything was in its place.
Jennie thought she had never seen such
homelike apartment. She loved the
look of the rooms, the good taste. and
especially the living room, In the soft
glow Of that handsome lamp.
1t was three nights later, and jim,
as he supposed, with Bill, his brother,
were coming to make call. Dorothy
was radiant and sweet. She knew that
nothing mattered so long as Jim loved
her and they were together.
Jennie Joined his mother and sister
in the kitchen, who were rejoicing over
the attractive party which had been
prepared. They thrilled when the bell
rang and the door opened. a moments 8

Dorothy. But now that she was facing
such possibility, she was alarmed at
her disinterestedness Though she was
sorry to disappoint him, she must speak
the truth, though she smiled as she
talked, he was aware of the sadness
that tinged her reply.
She didn't want TO give up her posi-
ton. Today she had raise Of 50 now

"You silly boy" she said, softly,
"you have no idea what clothes cost

played new suit. THAT cost me
$10O."
Jim flushed red. Her money not his,
he thought. And so all his beautiful
dreams collapsed. The reference to her
raise and to his mcager salary hurt
him. She knew nothing Of his schem :
ing to enrn extra and of his fine figur

white that it cost very little more to
have a little fiat. AS the days went

He never told her of his ten dollar
