Months, According to Statement Of
Comptroller Of the Currency

Washington, Nov. 8.--Establishing
record for immunity for failure, ma
tional banks OF the United States have
gone through the last ~ months with

to an announcement last night by
John SHELTON Williams, comptroller Of
the currency.
The one failure reported by Mr.
Williams was In 1918. no bank having
been forced to suspend during the last

record. Mr.. Williams said, stands out
az 30 times better than the average
for any similar period in the 40 years
Of the present national banking sys-
tenn.
For the first 10 months Of the pres
emit year. POI charters for new national
banks were granted by the comptrol.
Ter. or these II were made operative

MEN NOT FORCED TO QUIT

Washington. Nov. 6.-Denial Of
Samuel Gompers' statement that rep
resentatives Of operators walked out
of the meeting called by. Secretary
Wilson for the purpose of trying to
settle the coal strike was made yester-
day by the executive committee OF
the bituminous coal operators OF tho
central competitive field. The opera
tors expressed willingness to present
all facts bearing on the controversy to
any tribunal that might be named BY
the government.
Careful examination of Samuel
Gompers' announcement regarding the
coal strike" said the operators state
ment, "discloses the absence Of sim
gle accurate statement Of facts.
ut Is not true that the operators
representatives walked out Of Secre-
tary Wilson's conference. leaving Mr..
Lewis with no alternative but to call
a strike The operators representa-
tives accepted President Wilson's pro-
posal in Its entirety and withdrew
from the conference In order that
their presence might not embarrass
Secretary Wilson In his effort to per-
suade the miners to take the honor
able course thus opened to them. At
the time OF their withdrawal the op-
orators advised Secretary Wilson that
they would remain in Washington,
awaiting his call to further confer
ences.
1T is not true. as Mr.. Gompers Inn
plies. that the miners are not permit
ted by the operators to work full
time. The operators have no control
over the demand for coal. They can
merely stand ready to produce and
furnish 1t when the public requires
and Is willing to accept 1t.
ut is not true that the miners re-
ceived an advance of 20 cents ton
In 1914.
ut Is not true that the operators
raised the price Of coal IS a ton in
1914. On the contrary, the price was
reduced.
TT Is not true, as Mr.. Gompers
states, that for the last several years
the miners havs.averaged only 160 to
$50 working days year.
ut Is a fact, however, and Mr.. Com
pers could easily have ascertained it.
that virtually every bituminous mine
in the country has on its pay roll .
substantial number Of men who de-
liberately lay off from one to three
days week when they have an op-
portunlty to work.
'Mr. Gompers states that the miners
are demanding shorter hours 30 that
their work may be made regular In
stead of intermittent How II 1t pos
sibls to effect such regulation? How
can mines be worked when no cars
are available? How can mines be
worked on days when mine sidings
and railroad yards are blocked with
loaded cars which the public does not
need and will not buy?
"Mr. Gompers well knows that the
public buys Its coal only as 1t wants
1t and always WILL"

DUCK MARRIAGE LAW
Decrease in Marriages in
Wisconsin Due to Fool Pub
licity- Couples Go to Other
States to Tie Up.

Wisconsin marriage laws will
be amended, if proposals of coun-
ty clerks in letters to the mem
bers on the legislature are carried
out. Statistics indicate that
there has been a decrease in the
number of marriages in the state
and an increase of the number of
Wisconsin people who go to
other states to marry. In Mil
waukee, 1t is declared, the num-
Der of marriages has decreased
80 per cent. A large decrease
has also been noted IN the mar
riages in this section of the state,
many Of the Wisconsin couples
going to Michigan aad Minneso-
ia to have the ceremony per-
formed. The principal object is
that the Wisconsin law requires
that the names of the applicants
be posted FIVE days before the Ii
cense to marry is issued. 1t also
requires that the parties set a
certain date on which the mar
riage ceremony is to be performed
and the place.
