though mine whistles again blew this
morning. but few miners in Ohio re-
turned to work.

Spectators in need of quick cash

made daily by telegraph.
There are $4,000 small banks in the
United States. Treasury Department
officials estimate. Since the armistice
practically all have been piling their

Strikes May Continue.
At the meeting of the executive
council of the American Federation of
Labor yesterday, a plan of action was
framed in relation to the injunction
issue, and the scores of strikes in the
offing which the Governments policy
may affect
The International Association OF
Kachinists is taking a general strike

swer from Director General Hines re-
earding their demands within the
next few days, and are determined
upon an aggressive policy il they are
denied.
OPERATOR Demands.
While neither side in the contro-
versy between coal miners and opera
tors has had time to make out it's
program for the conference beginning
tomorrow, there are indications lead
ing to the belief that, at least in the
early stages of the meeting, the oper-
ators will urge:
I. That the principle Of the Wash
ington wage agreement is still in
effect, and should continue in effect
until IL ceases to be by virtue OF it's
own provisions-these provisions to
be interpreted in tho light Of Judge
Anderson's rulings in Indiana.
2. That the increase in wages de-
manded by the miners cannot be met
with costs of operation where they
are, and at the present price Of coal
3. That the idle times complained
of by the miners cannot be remedied
unless sufficient railway equipment
for loading is provided. and the pub
lie induced to buy coal through the
summer.
Miners Views.
The miners. more than likely, will
contend:
l. That, to all practical purposes,
war conditions have ceased.
>. That the recent strike was jusu-
fed by conditions.
3. That the situation OF the miners
makes ii imperative that they be
given regular hours OF work-a five
day-a-week job throughout the year,
and six-hour day plus a 30 per cent
Increase in pay, to cover the rising
cost of living.
4. That the Government over
stepped the bounds of justice in stop
ping the strike by injunction pro-
ceedings, and thus dealt the cause
or labor a severe blow.

Now the disciples argue that here is
a call they are not at liberty to ignore.
Their missionary society has acted to
this effect. An appeal has been made

Boy Babies Arrive.

From Reading comes the news that
Berks county babies are very largely
male. If there are those who consider
this a phenomenon, they are little
acquainted with history. 1t is the uni

after any war the birth rate rises and
males are In the majority. This is the
way in which nature cares for her
own, although no scientist has been
able to give any satisfactory explana-
ton Of the fact.
Unless this reproduction of the de-
stroyed sex was universal we should
soon have one-sided world in the

time immemorial and many Of them
have been extremely bloody. but the
