ENGINEER SURPRISED AT
RICE DEVELOPMENT

Little Rock, Nov. 19.-Col. Henry
A. Allen, chief engineer of the Dixie
Power Company, prominent con-
sulting engineer of Chicago, and COM
mander of the Seventh combatant en-
gineers for over year in France, was
in Little Rock this week looking after
the interests of the company. Col.
Allen was one of the consulting en-
gineers on the Panama Canal.
II was. amazed by the magnitude
of the rice development in several
counties of your state," said COL Allen
"but greater still is the chance for
development. In fact, / would say
that it has not really begun. Our
company contemplates supplying the
rice fields with cheap power from the
dam we are to erect on White river,
but if developed to the fullest there
are not rivers enough in the state to
supply sufficient power for this field.
We hope to bring $4,000 horse power
daily to the rice fields, and more if
we can generate over our estimated
production of 100000 horsepower,
and that ought to start the rice boom.
"Our project will not only supply
cheap power, but we will do what the
government has not so far succeeded
in doing-we will make the flow of
the White river almost the same the
year round. Our dam. will flood 150,-
900 acres of land and impound so
much water that we will be able to
let it all out through the turbines, and
not over the spillway. This will re-
lieve Newport of about eight feet Of
water in the flood stage, and Clarer-
don of four or five feet. This will be
great benefit to the property owners
along the lower White, for it will
render the present levee sufficient to
hold the river in it's banks.

MANY NON-RESIDENT
HUNTERS LICENSES ISSUED

Little Rock, Nov 19.-Arkansas is
getting more than its share of the
hunters this season. Over 800 hunt
ers' licenses have been issued from
the office of the State Game and Fish
Commission, and most of these are
for nonresident hunters. Thousands
of licenses have been issued for hunt
ers and for dogs, but the most Of them
are made out by the circuit clerks on
blanks furnished by the commission.
The nonresident hunters come from
New York, Boston, Washington, Chi
cago, Buffalo, and even from points
further away than these. Most of
these hunters come to the lodges in
East Arkansas, to be guests of people
who are members, and whom they
have entertained in the East.

u. S. ACTS TO
AVERT FAMINE
Garfield Calls Miners Scale Com
mittee to Meet-FueI Admin
istration Clothed With War
time Powers.

Washington, Nov. 18.-The govern
ment stepped to the front today to
force miners and operators to nego-
tiate new wage agreement and re-
sumo work in the bituminous fields
before the country is in the grip of a
coal famine.
Clothed with all of his wartime
powers as fuel administrator and act
ing by direct authority of the presi-
dents cabinet, DR.. Harry A. Garfield
called joint meeting of scale COM
mittees, at which he was expected to
give formal notice that the time had
cmoe to resume mining operations on
normal scale.
While the joint conference was set
for this afternoon, DIR. Garfield found
that a full attendance could not be
obtained, so it went over until to-
morrow Meanwhile word was passed
that the strike situation had reached
that point where action was regarded
by federal authorities as absolutely
imperative.
There was no evidence, as presented
to the cabinet, that the scale COM
mittees, called here last week to ne
gotiate a new wage agreement, had
made the least headway. Reports
from the central competitive fields,
embracing the states of Illinois, In
diana, Ohio and Western Pennsylva-
MIA, strongholds of the United Mine
Workers of America, showed all the
mines shut down, and not enough coal
coming from nonunion plants in other
states to meet the normal demand by
several million tons.
Other reports, from widely sep
arated sections, brought the same
story of rapidly vanishing coal
supply, with indications that hum
dreds OF industrial plants would be
forced to close shortly unless coal
production was put back to normal.
In view of many of the officials the
situation was critical enough to de-
mand drastic action
Although he wuold not discuss the
nature of the statement he was pre-
pared to lay before the operators and
miners, it was said on high authority
that Dr. Garfield was prepared to pre-
sent the situation forcibly to the
chief representatives of the mine
owners and mine workers There was
no intimation as to what direction
governmental action would take in
case the deadlock continued.
Steps taken by Kansas to operate
the mines under government author
ity and fear by both sides that other
states would do likewise were urged
as a strong reason for quick settle
ment of all wage disputes.

FREIGHT EMBARGO
Is NOT PLANNED
Coal Production Has Increased
lO Per Cent-Railroads Are
Hit Hard-Passenger Trains
May Be Cancelled.

Chicago, Nov. 18.-The statement
of Walker D. Hines, director general
OF railroads, that the coal shortage
has not reached a stake where a gen
eral freight embargo is necessary and
that coal production has increased 10
per cent since the strike was the most
encouraging news on the coal strike
situation today. Reports from prin-
cipal coal producing states showed no
material change, but in some of the
outlying districts more mines were re-
ported in operation.
Mr.. Hines came to Chicago to at
tend meeting of the American Rail-
way Association. Before his arrival
regional directors had said an en-
barge was inevitable. But after Mr..
Hines laid his information before
them they agreed that the roads
would have coal to last another 30
days.
Coal is being produced in spite of
the strike, according to Mr.. Hines.
Nonunion miners continued at work
when the strike became effective Nov.
l and they produce 20 per cent of the
country's coal. Since that time more
miners have gone to work, increasing
production to 80 per cent of normal.
''The country is using 10000 cars of
bituminous coal a day." said Mr..
Hines, "while 1000 cars are being
mined. This means we are eating
into our reserve supply, at the rate
of 5000 cars a day. Our supply will
last 25 days if production is neither
increased nor decreased. However, it
is being increased"
Mr.. Hines said regional directors
had been given authority to suspend
passenger rtains, if necessary, to con-
serve coal, but they have no author
ity to place an embargo on freight.
Before we shu tdown on freight
shipments most of the, passenger
trains on the railroads throughout
the country will be taken off," he said.
Movement of freight is more vital
than the carrying of passengers"
Only from 10 to IL days supply of
fuel is advisable for railroads of the
central western region, according to
P. E. Clarity. In the northwest, the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul Rail
road has been hit the hardest by the
coal famine. This road had only 10
days supply on hand.
The suspension of many of the
smaller plants in the south is expect
ed in a few days. The railroad direc-
tor in that region today issued an
order materially curtailing the sup
ply of coal to all industries.
The situation in Chicago is not ser
ious, according to T. w. Proctor, chair
man OF UHe OLlCdSo lCSioiioi Soe'i VIII
mittee.
"Chicago is in excellent condition."
he said. "Our utilities have several
months supply, as have our big indus
tries, such as the packers and steel
companies. The schools also have a
large reserve"
The edict of the public service COM
mission of Indiana, shutting off the
supply of coal to all non essential
industries, is ODE carried out rigidly.
All the streets in the large towns
have been short of unnecessary lights.
