tion of the Mexican government in
preventing the drilling of new wells
on property owned by Americans and
insisting upon protection of Ameri-
cans working in the Tampico oil re-
gion.
The note of November 18 was dis
patched after receipt of official infor-
nation that Carranza soldiers had
seized another American owned well
November IL.
It was learned today that Mexican
military forces at various times dur
ing the last month have stopped drill
ing operations Of American companies
on the pretext that permits" to drill
had not been obtained. In order to
obtain the permits" foreign oil COM
panies must agree in advance that
such wells as may be drilled would
become the property of the Mexican
government. The United States had
repeatedly protested against the de-
cress in particular.
Certain American owned companies
desiring to increase oil production to
meet the present fuel shortage in the
United States, it was said, have drilled
wells without admitting the loss -o1
their property by such acts.

DRASTIC CONDITION
WILDE CONTINUED
Hines Makes Formal Statement
Warning Public That Condi-
tiOns Cannot Be Remedied at
Once.

Washington, Dec. Expressions
by government officials of relief at
the settlement of the nationwide
strike of bituminous coal miners were
coupled tonight with warnings to the
American people that early relaxation
of the drastic restrictions on the con-
sumption of coal must not be exceeded
Fuel Administrator Garfield, on re-
ceipt of word that the miners in In
dianapolis had agreed to accept Presi-
dent Wilson's proposal, declared that
immediate removal of regulations on
soft coal consumption was not to be
considered.
Director General Hines in formal
statement, asserted that disloeation
created by the strike could not be
remedied instantly. The public, Mr..
Hines said, will be expected to con-
tinue conserving fuel until normal
conditions are restored, but just as
soon as practicable restrictions will
be rescinded or modified.
CAS- a preliminary to bringing back
normal conditions" the director said,
"coal mined will be allowed to run as
billed, except the tidewater and ex-
port embargo will continue; orders
placed for coal to western regions
from Pocahontas and Allegheny re-
gions will be cancelled, but coal billed
on these orders prior to cancellation
will be permitted to go and be expe-
dited so that those cars can be prompt
ly released for mines"
The railroad administration, Direc-
tor General Hines announced, would
aid in meeting the needs of other con-
sumers by reducing it's supply to a
ten-day margin. The administration
has been maintaining a fifteen days
supply.
| While those two government agen-
cies directly concerned with distribu-
tion of the available supply of bitum-
inous coal-which it is estimated will
cut 36,0O0,000 tons by the forty-day
strike-were issuing their warning,
White House officials indicated that
steps would be taken Immediately to
carry out the provisions of the presi-
dents proposal relating to investiga-
tion of wages and working conditions
in the bituminous fields by commit
tee of three. In fact, it was indicated
that the president already had practi-
cally decided on the appointment to
the commission and was awaiting only
the return Of Attorney General Pal
mer from Indianapolis before announc
ing the names of the three members.

all opposition by the time the question
came to vote.
One concession was made to the
radicals. The convention agreed to
the calling Of a general convention of
the miners at future date, at which
time the action of and reasons for the
general committee will be fully ex-
planned. The opponents of acceptance
of the presidents plan made their
fight principally on the theory that
only a general convention of the mine
workers had power to call of the
strike.
Members of the general committee
tonight steadfastly refused to make
public the name of the delegate who
cast the one dissenting vote.
Two statements were given out fol-
lowing adjournment of the conference
by Attorney General A. Mitchell Pal
mer, who first submitted the presi-
dents proposal to Acting President
Lewis and Secretary Treasurer Green
at a conference in Washington last
Saturday and came to Indianapolis to
await the outcome of consideration OF
the plan by the miners general COM
mittee.
Mr.. Palmer's first statement ex-
pressed his qualification at the deci-
sion of the United Mine Workers and
commended Mr.. Lewis and Mr.. Green
for "their wise and patriotic action"

The newspaper, the farmer, the
automobile manufacturers and the
wage Garner can increase the price OF
their wares to suit themselves or all
the traffic will bear.
But public utility companies, water,
light, gas, telephone, street railway,
ETC., must stand all these raises in
cost of printing, materials and wages
without the right to increase the cost
of their service.
A thoughtless public which indiv-
idually has increased the price of all
commodities as the occasion required,
collectively objects to increases in
rates for utility companies sufficient
to allow them to meet these increased
costs.

CHARM AND PATHOS
IN HAYAKAWA PLAY
MANY Beautiful Scenes in "A Heart

Picture, Taken in Japan's
Beauty Spots

There are Notwithstanding mo-
ments in ga Heart in Pawn" Sessue
Hayakawa's most recent Hawortn
production for Exhibitors Mutual.
The charm and pathos of the stage
NAV "Shadows.o from which it has
been adapted, are preserved, while
realistically and scenically the pro-
dIlction surpasses the stage version,
inst so far as nature excels paint and
canvas.
The night scenes in Japan-.par-
ticilarly the thrilling chase OF the
convict woman after her escape from
prison, are weirdly beautiful, m
only a master hand of artistry could
reproduce so realistically the power
and exotic beauty OF the mystlc
Orient.
Throughout the picture this fidelity
to atmosphere is preserved, while the
titling in its poetic aptness, has noe
been surpassed in the Hayakawa pro-
ductions, which is high praise
indeed.
Hayakawa plays a difficult role
like the artist he is, and is ably sup.
ported by Tsuru Aoki in the role OF
saba, with which she created a SEN
sation on the stage.
Many of the scenes were actually
taken in Japan shortly before Haya-
kawa formed his own producing COM
pany, The Haworth Pictures Corpora
ton, and preserved for use in his pro-
auctions.
There are a number of Japanese
children who are delightfully."- ~un-self-
conscious and naive, and a group of
genuine Geisha girls who dance in the
tea-house scene.
William Worthington, who has d.
Hayakawa in several of his re-
cent successes, is responsible for the
production. Kenworthy Wednesday

for his presence pollutes the air that

Nine times out of ten the man who

service and kept out of danger. The
men who graft soldiers never work.
While the soldier was in the trenches
fighting for freedom, and his rela-
tiyes and friends at home were Vol

the starving millions, these gratters
put in their time contriving schemes

nave been advised to pursue such a
policy in special letter sent out by
Louis Ward, general manager of the
association.
Technically our members need not
pay the tax to furriers if they were not
billed with it at the time the purchase
was made says the letter. of the
'iurrier was under the impression that
the tax would not apply to fur collars,
Guns and trimmings. and neglected to
OH his customers with the tax. he is
at fault. Morally, however, we fell that
me garment manufacturer is under an
obligation TO pay the tax now. The
government intended the tax to be
passed along to the ultimate consumer
u the garment manufacturer took ad-
vantage of the technicality and refused
10 pay the tax the furrier and not the
consumer would have to pay it,"
Inc garment manufacturers are en-
deavorlng to obtain a ruling from the
government on how costs should be fig
.efed on fur trimmed garments which
are subject to the tax. All garments
IN which the fur exceeds the cost of
shy other component part are subject
10 me 10 per cent fur tax On such
garments the manufacturer in most
cases cases has already paid the furrier a
~ per cent tax on the fur They now
want to know if they shall figure the
cost OF the garment to include the cost
OF the fur plus the tax, or without the
TAX: The garment manufacturers are
emitted to deduct the amount of the
Tax they paid the furrier from the tax
lney collect on the finished garment,
snd most of them believe that their
costs should include only the cost Of
lne iur and not the tax. The latter
method would mean a cheaper price to

Har Dayal, Hindu
Revolter, Becomes

India's Need Is Home Rule

ion Of Former Professor

Interest little less widespread than
that aroused by the arrest in San Fran
cisco five years ago of Har Dayal, lect-
urer on Hindu philosophy at Stanford
University and acknowledged leader in
the United States of Hindu plot to
overthrow British rule in India, will
attend the news that he has recanted
He says The will preach Cancellation
with England and home rule for India
with the same fervency that formerly
marked hostility to Great Britain.
News of his change of heart is con-
tanned in signed letter published in
a recent issue of the Christian Science
Monitor. Following his arrest by United
States immigration inspectors March
Is, 1914, Har Dayal disappeared. after
being released on $1,000 bail. {.

ment sought Har Dayal's deportation
and his friends here feared that he had
been kidnapped.
Writes from Stockholm
Har Dayal went from San Francisco
to Stockholm, it now appears, whence
he writes:

version to the principle of imperial
unity, with genuine home rule for all
civilized nations Of the British Empire.

same after this great war as he was

Egypt, Persia and the other weak
Asiatic nations cannot resist external
invasion without England's help. The
Germans are no friends of Asia and the
Asiatics. The day of the small states
is gone. The war has shown that all
countries must really follow the lead
of other great powers in such crises.
The breakup of the British Empire in
Asia and Africa would lead only to a
change of masters for the people of
those countries.

done in Asia and Africa. We should
try to cooperate with England in de-

it in the direction of greater efficiency
and equality.
"Of course, we must aspire toward g
higher goal. We must remove iniqui-

promote industry and scientific agri-
culture, and in other ways raise up
people to the level of modern Euro
