Operators Agree With
Garfield's Principles

the session, but declined to say what
took place.
Before the meeting Attorey Cen
eral Palmer said that if the figures
as to operators profits given yes
terday by Mr.. McAdoo were correct
it was not likely DR.. Garfield would
permit an increased price for coal.
In statement bearing on this
issue the operators said that con-
ditions in 1917 were abnormal" but
that as Mr.. McAdoo was ignorant"
of conditions in 1918 and 1919, his
message Carries no weight and ic-
quires no answer" The operators
said they welcomed an investiga-
ton of current tax returns and that
they had been urging board of ar
bitration or tribunal of investiga-
ton, but that the miners refused to
agree to it.
With less than 40 per cent of the
normal output of bituminous coal
being produced, the nation is facing
its most serious period since the
strike of soft coal miners was or
dered, according to reports received
by the railroad administration. In
scores of cities the number of in
dustries in operation is rapidly fall
ing, while the nations coal bin con-
tinues to diminish.

Woman as His Wife

the woman declared she would view
the body this morning. Miss Miller
also said she would call at the under
taking parlors this morning.
Despite Wright's positive identifi-
cation of his wife's body, later he is
known to have mailed letter to
Miss Hope Scoville, Council Bluffs.
The letter was dropped IN a mail
box in Council Bluffs and last night

two hours. At 2 o'clock this morn
ing he had not returned.

was said that the woman was lady
like in manner, refined in her tastes
and gave every evidence of good
breeding. 1t was also said by Mrs.
M. F. Rohrer, $50 Vine street, with
whom the woman lived in Council
Bluffs, that she was modest in her
bearing and gentle in manner.
Miss Miller, who is stenogfapher
in the Council Bluffs federal building

velvet toque hat in a downtown
garage Yesterday morning. 1t was
taken to the Gentleman undertaking

that it would suggest something in
regard to the dead woman's iden-
tity.

hat, coat and shoes which were
removed from the woman's body

Former Omaha Girl,
Now Bernadine Sister,
Back From the Front

Sister Marie Yvonne, formerly
Miss Mary Malone of Omaha, who
Just returned to the Bernadine con-
vent at Nebraska City after spend
ing six years in war-ridden Belgium,
in an interview yesterday told many
OF the narrowing experiences she
was forced to undergo while under
German she'll fire and wildly de-
scribed the retreat of the Germans
November 7.
The Belgians have named Novem-
Der 2 "Notre Deliverance," meaning
"our deliverance," she said, and that
day is a greater day to the Belgians
than Armistice day. Sister Marie
Yvonne told of living in a cellar of
the Bernadine convent at Andreg-
MES, Belgium, for three days, with
little to eat, while the German and
English artillery dropped high ex-
plosive shells in the near vicinity.
Sister Marie Yvonne went to Bel
GUM in 1913, shortly after war had
been declared.

Try This If You
Have Dandruff

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This de-
stroys it entirely. To do this, just
get about four ounces of plain, ordi-
nary liquid arvon; apply it at night
when retiring; use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub it in gently with
the finger tips.
BY morning, most if not all, Of
your dandruff will be gone, and
three or four more applications will
completely dissolve and entirely de-
stroy every single sign and trace Of
it, no matter how much dandruff
you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop
instantly, and your hair will be
fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and
soft, and look and feel hundred
times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. It is inexpensive, and
four ounces is all you will need.
This simple remedy has never been
levin to fail

 POLICE FORCE
 IS ADVOCATED

London, Dec. 22.-Creation of an international police force is suggest ed by Major David Davies, a member of Parliament. He told the Grottus Society that each nation should have a sufficient army to maintain intern al order and furnish it's quota when the League Of Nations required it; that no nation should employ a new weapon of war; and that each nation should provide the League of Nations with an adequate force for i'm mediate use.
 These units should be concentrated in different parts of the world and the naval portion similarly consti- tuted. Poison gas, war planes, sub marines, heavy artillery and tanks should be ceded to the League to form the headquarters force and no state should be allowed to own them or to make use of any new invention for war-like purposes, he said.
 Major Davies said the greatest re- sistance to the suggestion probably

with their customers upon the as- sumption that they cannot largely in crease the extent of their reserve bank borrowings, and the result is that any heavy demand for call funds is sharply checked by higher rates
 It had been supposed that the re- lease of money due to Government interest payments on the 18th of De cember would help conditions quite markedly. The influence of these payments has usually been most de- cidedIy noticeable two or three days after the interest date, and on this occasion the usual effect was eX- perienced, although to considerably less extent than in the past.
 The conclusion of the December in- terest and tax settlements has re ieved to some extent the uncertainty which previously existed, but there is no reason to look for any great change in conditions before the close of the year.
 Market Situation. While there are thus many factors in the industrial and financial pros poets which should serve to encour- age genuine optimism, banking and money conditions are such as to en- force the need for conservative judg- ment on the part of investors. There
 is little ground to look for marke ed or very general advance in prices in
 the near future, although individual stocks will undoubtedly react upward i as a result of good news from time to time. Definite adoption of a rail road policy should, however, produce a condition of greater strength in transportation issues, and the rail- way list now offers not a few attrac tive opportunities for the discriminat- ing buyer.
 Relatively quiet conditions in the
 market as a whole continue to be expected from now until the turn of
 the year. Underlying business condi- tions throughout the country are in strong demand, with cores pondingly favorable effect upon cor porate earnings despite the influence of heavy taxation and other difficult conditions growing out of high and rising costs of production.
 There are many influences at work to account for the markets stand still. These are so well known there is little use in enumerattng them; however, they are all of such & na- ture they can in time be cured and that is the reason why people of
 means and discernment have been acquiring standard shares whenever they have been pressed for sale.

HENRY Cl-E:lyn.<S5'
 WEEKLY LETTER

Comparatively little actual change in the general financial and invest ment outlook has taken place during the past week. but there have been developments which hold out hope for q better state Of things. Political factions are evidently approaching much closer 10 an agreement with re gard to a ratification of the peace treaty, and it would seem likely that some definite adjustment may be ar rived at in the near future. This in itself shcuId serve 70 furnish a new basis for foreign trade and through it for domestic business iu many branches. The adoption of the EGEe bill by Congress on December iG opens the way to the establish ment of foreign credits and the bet teTtng of relations with foreign coun- tries if peace treaty action can be se- past few days also seem to show a disposition in Congress to deal defi- niteIy with the railroad situation.
 Abroad the establishment of an anti-inflation policy in Great Britain, including an effort to curtau further increase of note currency. has coin cided with apparent growth of ex- porting power to encourage belief in a decided improvement in British conditions Buying power continues good throughout the country and for eign nations are anxious to take as much of our output as we are willing to release, provided they can obtain reasonable credit The adoption of a policy for the release of silver by the United States Treasury is tending to inn do -I,1 Iationships with silver using coun- tries. particularly in the Orient. There are thus many hopeful factors in the general business and financial out look.
 Effects of Industrial Unrest.
 The outstanding feature of the weeks business has been a clearer recognition of the effects of the in dustriaI unrest of the past month or two. Estimated losses due to the coal and steel strikes are, of course, only approximate. but even on the most conservative basis run up enormous Iy.
 The fact that many plants, as a result Of fuel shortage, will be obliged to defer the fulffllment of their or ders necessarily tends to throw other business more or less out of gear, and in many parts of the country reports of inability to obtain mer- chandise for which contracts have been made indicate the loss to the community both in convenience and income. These conditions have tend ed more or less to affect the values of industrial shares of various groups, although on the whole they have fared mparativeIy well and have been much more favorably regarded than even the standard rails
 A noteworthy development fs'seen in the effect of these conditions upon public utilities stocks and utility se- curities generally.
