3'World Peace Palace''
Structure to Contain Newspaper
Offices, Banking and Com.
mercial Exchanges

GENEVA, Oct. 26.-Thc Swiss news
papers have received circulars from
Germany inviting them to membership
in an international peace palace
which is to be established in Dussel-
dorf.
In the palace, which is to be con-
structed at a cost of $1,125.OO0. will be
high central tower for wireless tele-
graph apparatus. In addition there will
be quarters for newspaper Offices and
provisions for a stock exchange. rail
way and maritime agencies and bank
ing and commercial exchanges.
The circular says in part:
eve will thus be able to construct
practical enterprises for work which
neither the league of nations nor the
peace palace at The Hague can pos
sibly perform. The creation of Car
negie remains in the theoretical do
main while the league of nations is still
unborn"

Call of Strike, as De-

S,of Correspondence
PITTSBURGH, Oct. 26.--President
Wilson's statement to the bituminous
miners was received with intense salts
faction by the coal operators here. 1t
is regarded as the one thing that will
rrevent a strike. Regret is expressed
however, that the President did not
earlier make the declaration that the
Washington agreement was still in ef-
feet and could not be abrogated by the
miners without the concurrence of the
operators and the Federal government,
the other parties to the agreement.
The operat tors. desired such a declar-
alton from the President before the ne
sss4ations WITH -themincrs reached an
impasse. They did their best to get it..
but the Presidents illness made it i'm
, possible to reach him at that time.
Of the Miners would have gracefully ac-
quiesced in such declaration had it
been made earlier, and that then it
would have been possible to negotiate
new agreement before the expiration
Of the Washington agreement, whether
by the formal termination Of the war
or by expiration on tho fixed date,
March 81, 1920.
While they now expect that Lewis
will yield to the Presidents demands
and call off the strike, they recognize
that he is in .mortifying position, as
he will have to act under compulsion.
at is a powerful statement" said A.
R. Hamilton, vice president of the Ma
tional Coal Association. Roosevelt him
self could not have done better. II
The miners leaders are sane they will
/ yield-and | believe they are sane
Mr. Lewis, however, is man of the
most tenacious determination, and il
may be that he weighed the possibility
of Pre- esidential intervention before he
chose his course, and may elect to &C
through to the bitter end At any rate
the President has taken the only ster
that can prevent strike now If that
fails it will be case of the Fedora
government dealing with the strike
after it begins"
New-York tribune., 1919-10-27

United States might be naturalization
Of the mines, in which case, he said
the alarming shortage of fuel might
mean a further advance Of $3.50 a ton
in the price of coal at the mines.
Conditions are reported similar in
the other chief industrial centers
of Canada Winnipeg, Montreal and
Hamilton.
"The Toronto Globe" commenting
editorially to-day on the situation,
says
'The people of Ontario are directly
concerned in the dispute between the
bltuminous coal operators and miners
in the United States. Many Ontario
are dependent upon soft coal from
those mines, and it is also used ex-
tensively for heating purposes"
Would Develop Waterpower
After insisting that the strike would
practically paralyze Canadian industry
"The Globe" continues:
"The menace Of such calamity and
the constant reminders of our depend
encc upon the mines of the United
States should spur Canadians into de-
manding the fullest development of
their waterpower. Hydro electric
plants would save many Ontario in
dustries from stoppage if the source of
the coal supply is shut off, and there
will be regret that the waterpower re-
sources of the province, especially those
of the st. Lawrence, are SO little util-
lied"
One government official said to-day:
In view of the situation, as it is
now and was last year, / do not see
how any assistance can be lent to the
United States in the event of miners
strike. This country is too largely de-
pendent upon the supply from Penn
sylvania."

matters relating Ito income, expendi-
Change Urged By Glass
Secretary Glass emphatically has
urged Congress to change the present
system % as to give the Secretary of
the Treasury power not only to re-
ceive but to review and revise esti-
mates. Mr.. Glass fatty opposes the
provisions of the House measure,
which would transfer the power of
collec ing the estimates from the Secre
tary OF the Treasury to director
serving under the President. Rather,
he favors taking away from the Treas
urJ Department its present extraneous
functions, such as control of the
Bureau of War Risk Insurance, the
Secret Service, the public health ser
vice, and the Supervising Architects
Office, and limiting its work to that
Of supervision and control of the
country's finances.
Senator Mccormick would have the
Secretary of the Treasury devote his
whole time to the question Of
financial administration, and make it
imperative for him to become familiar
in detail with the financial operations
of the government. At the Cabinet
meetings he would be the minister in
terested in cutting down expenditures
and, as his department would not be
spending department, he could not
be accused of cutting down one de-
partment or another for the Treasury s
benefit.

the face OF winter. would find himself
N an unpleasant situation.
To Fight to End
Members of the Cabinet, however,
who helped frame the President $
statement last night, were still hope
ful to-day that the individual mine
workers will insist upon general con
vention to discuss their differences
with the operators, and that the lead
ers, pending such 4 convention, will
see that it is the best policy for them
TO suspend the strike order pending
decision by such convention. 1t is
possible Sccrc tary Wilson will go TO
Indianapolis 70 confer with the min
ers executive board. which meets in
that city Wednesday. Labor leaders
opposed TO a strike advise such a CON
ference and say that few timely
words from the Secretary Of Labor
may result in satisfactory agree
mert.
Whatever path the mine leaders fol-
low the Administration is firmly de
,ermined that there shall be no strike
and that tho mines shall continue to
run on November ] and afterwards
In this case it is going to fight the
issue out to the end.

Governor Of Illinois
To Fight to Prevent
Coal Mine Wnlk-Duf

SPRINGFIELD. Ill.,, Oct 26.--Full CO.
operation of the State of Illinois with
President Wilson in the Presidents
announced stand against the strike Of
sort coal miners, scheduled for No
vember /, was pledged by Governor
Frank o. Lowden, "to the end that the
people shall not suffer" in a statement
issued here tonight.
The statement follows:
The statement of the President
makes the issue plain. When a special
interes. conflicts with the interests of
the people as a whole, the former must
give way. The strike, no doubt, has
been the most powerful weapon in the
hands of labor to improve it's condi-
tions. SO long as the strike affected
directly only tho employer the public
could not object. The threatened coal
strike, however, is strike against the
American public. In fact, it is likely
that the public will suffer moro than
the operators themselves.
Whenever any organization, whether
OF capital or labor, becomes so power
ful as to be able to give or to withhold
from the public the necessities of life,
sucn organization must come under the
control of the government. Otherwise
snc part becomes greater than the
whole If the only alternative to a
strike or lockout by such an aorganiza-
t'on ls the compulsory arbitration OF
diherences between employers and ON
pioyees engaged in such vital under
takings compulsory arbitration to that
extent Will have to come.
Those leaders Of labor who meet
such a suggestion with the threat Of q
general strike do not help the cruse
OF labor. A general strike would mean
IN effect, an effort to substitute soviets
1or the duly constituted authority OF
The land. The people are not yet
ready to abandon their form Of govern
mcnt.
illinois will cooperate with the
President to the extent of it's power, ia
the end that its people shall not suf-
fer"

MIXING CONCRETE FOR SET
TING STEEL FENCE POSTS

National Crop Improvement service.l
Mixing can best be done on n fiat
platform made as nearly water-tight
as possible by placing the boards close
together. Be sure that you have sharp
sand because sand mixed with vege.
table matter will not make good con.
crete. Measure the sand and spread
1t in a layer of equal depth. Place
the cement on top of the sand and
thoroughly mix sand and cement by
turning over with a shovel or mixing
hoe, mixing until the color is uniform
Spread this mixture on the board, then
spread the gravel on the top and con.
tinue mixing. When you have uni.
form mixture, add water and continue
that until the desired consistency is
secured. Add the water slowly while
cutting 1t over, as this will save losing
cement. Do not slight the mixing, as
on the mixing largely depends the per.
manent results.
II the concrete shows, streaky or dry
spots, it is not sufficiently well mixed
and must be turned again. After the
final turning, round up the pile and
it is ready for placing. If you use
sand and gravel mixed, it should be
spread on a mixing board and thor
oughly wet and then spread the ce.
ment on top and mix, adding such wa
ter as is necessary.
The concrete mixture should contain
enough water so that it will handle
nicely on a shovel without running of
much. Slight tamping to remove bub'
bles, to fill the holes and give a per
feet fit is all that is necessary. A wet
mixture. is preferable for post setting.
Concrete should not be exposed to
the direct rays of the sun until it has
had time to get hard. AS soon as the
concrete at the top of the post hole is
firm, it is a good plan to cover with
earth, green grass or something thai
will in a measure retain the moisture
If the concrete can be wet every day
for a week, it will be better for it
Do not let the concrete freeze. If the
weather is frosty, the earth taken
from the hole should be shOveled back
on top of the concrete and left there
until the concrete has set and all dan
ger from freezing is past.
The best mixture is one part cement
three parts sand and three parts graT
ell. AS cement comes in bags of 10C
pounds, for every bag of cement you
should have three bags of sand and
three bags of gravel.
Use concrete as soon as possible af
ter it is made. If brick bats or stones
are used instead of gravel, they should
be broken up into small pieces.
Be sure your posts are thoroughly
set before stretching your fence.

STEEL FENCE FOR
POULTRY YARDS.

National Crop improvement Servlce.l
In the poultry industry. cleanliness
is of first Importance. Wire which
will stretch tightly on galvanized steel
posts is practically vermin proof and
protects the poultry yard from that
most annoying disease breeder, the old
wood post.
Poultry netting and poultry fencing
are two different things. Poultry net
ting as ordinarily known is made of
lightweight galvanized wire woven in
q hexagon pattern which must be fast
ened into a wood frame but there Is
no way to stretch it tightly. On the
other hand a properly constructed
poultry fence has the long bar wires
which stretch like a harp and they are
so graduated from the bottom that 1t
is tight" against all sizes of chickens.
Chicken netting is generally mount
ed with wooden board against the
ground and is always unsanitary. An
all-steel fence is the ideal equipment
for businesslike poultry farm.

Mr.. Evans is one Of the best known

derived from Tanlac Mr.. Evans said:
For years suffered with gastrits
and indigestion in the worst FORM /
was habitually constipated and had
pains in my shoulders and headache
continually. My appetite left me al
most entirely and everything that |
would eat hurt me. Finally got to
