Rome, Nov. 24.-Rumors are rife Oh
the possibility Of very serious erisis'
involving not only the cabinet but aiso
the reiyning house Of Italy, as the open
ing of parliament set for Dec. ap-
proaches.
The socialists, proud OF their recent
victory, are eager to continue thei'
march forward" The older members
Of the party are against any excesses'
The new elements are debated 10 pe
animated by revolutionary sentiments
and to favor an external policy which'
in their opinion, will lead to boishe-
yism in Italy. This section Is now the
most numerous, If not the most I'M
portant in the party. 1t Is considered
that Il will assume command of the
party because of the audacity and de-
termination CT its members to optaih
control by any means.
Members of this section are quoteu
as declaring that, comprising as they
do more than $50 live wires' amohS
the $50 deputies, the remainder VIII
not dare oppose them and that they
will be able to accomplish "some su-
preme act Of rebellion which Will
overthrow the government OF the bour-
geoise."
Plan Insult to King.
Formerly the socialists never at
tended the opening of parliament so
they might be absent when the king
delivered his message and to avoio
taking the oath Of parliament. The
now socialists now assert that the en-
tire group should attend the cere-
mony, hiss the king, insult him and
prevent him from speaking. They
have even threatened that he would
be attacked on his way to the cham
Der. All this, 1t Is pointed OUT may be
much more than is possible of accom-
plishment. Nevertheless it. has made
the authorities anxious. 1t has beer
conceded that there Is no measure
which could prevent $50 members from
whistling and shouting and preventing
the king from being heard. The rules
do not provide for any such contin-
gency, for it Is stipulated that no po-
lice or armed force can be employed
in the hall where the senators and
deputies meet. There would be nc
means Of employing coercion. as the
meeting Dec. will be the first of the
new body and the rules will not then
have been formulated The cabinet
members have been discussing the
question daily.

Nineteen Girls and Six Mon Died in
Blaze in louisiana. -
Vile Platte. La, Nov. ,24.-Twenty-
five persons. most Of them women and
girls, lost their lives here Saturday
night in the fire which destroyed a
frame building in which 800 were
dancing. Fifteen others were seri-
ously hurt and search Of the ruins
was expected to add to the list Of
dead.
Ten Of the dancers were burned to
death and others were crushed in a
wild stampede to reach the street down
a narrow, frail stairway while the
flames were sweeping rapidly from the
lower floor.
More than a score Of babies, tucked
safely away in little nursery on the
same floor with the dance hall, were
rescued by mothers. So
Some Of the youngsters were picked
up and hurled bodily into the out
stretched arms of people in the street
below. -.
The fire started in grocery store
and tongue Of flame reached out and
startled crowd in a moving picture
theater in the same building with the
grocery and the dance hall. A man
standing near the door shouted to the
audience to move out quietly and no
one was hurt. -
The flames spread 50 rapidly that
the whole lower floor was a roaring
blaze before the dancers in the big hall
above were aware Of their danger.
Instantly there was a panic, and the
whole crowd, men, women and chill
dren, made mad rush for the single
exit, the narrow stairway leading down
the side Of the burning building.
This soon was choked and many OF
those who were trapped escaped thru
windows to tho roof Of al adjoining
building.
Many Of the victims were burned be-
yond recognition and bits Of jewelry
were the only means Of Identification.

Profits Barred by Garfield.

the operators at their first lnterV1e"
that nearly all Of them could afford to
raise wages as much as 80 per cent
without avancing prices. According
to 1918 figures on production cost,
which he submitted from the fuel ad-
ministration files, the operators have
been making hugo war profits, large
proportion Of which they have paid
over to the government in excess prof.
its taxes.
That the operators have been taxi
ing enormous profits has been known
ever since the government began fixing
coal prices. DR.. Garfield admitted that
these prices had been fixed high enough
to allow a reasonable profit to the
mines with the highest cost Of produc-
ton. which were comparatively few In
number, and which DR.. Garfield deemed
necessary to keep going to attain
maximum fuel production during the
war.
The result was that mines Of low
production cost made immense profits
The administrator relied on the excess
profits tax to relieve such operators OF
their swollen gains.
Amply Able to Raise Pay.
DR.. GARFIELD holds that most OF the
operators will still make reasonable
profits II they advance wages without
raising prices. The only loser will be
the government, which will receive
less in excess profits taxes. Some high
production cost mines might be driven
out of business, but many Of these
mines were not operated extensively
until GARFIELD encouraged production
with his high wartime priceA
The operators did not take kindly to
DR.. Garfields suggestion that they sac
rtfice their war profits to wage ad-
vance to the miners without raising
prices. and their entire fght Is now
directed to the protection and continu-
alton Of the gains to which, they have
been accustomed in the last two years.
The dispute Is now a contest be-
tween the operators and the adminfs-
tration. The owners will agree to a
80 per cent wage increase. II the gov
ernment authorizes increased prices.
The administration cannot yield with
out rejecting DR.. Garleld's figures
showing q price advance unjustified
!, and without setting at naught ito
i promises 10 keep down the cost Of the
necessities Of life.
