OF girls preference. Indeed IL, your
and girl have acknowledged your
love to each other. and; I suppose, be-
come engaged, that rather settles your
fate. doesn't It? You surely cannot
become engaged to two girls at once,
even from a sense of courtesy and re-
sponsibility. The kindest thing YOU
can do, doubtless, is to let the second
girl know OF your relation to the first
one.

FAILING TO FUNCTION.

CONGRESS, which has frequently accused the pres

tive has hampered it in any way upon reconstruction
problems Upon most problems he made constructive sug
gestons and left congress to work out the solution And
congress has been unable in years time to reach sol
ton.
The president announced that he would turn the rail-
roads back to their January 1920 unless
gess ordered otherwise. Many bills introduced
signed to meet conditions with the end Of government
control The trainmen proposed permanent government
management and the opponents of government owner
ship united in support of the Cummins bill, which
strengthened the control Of the Interstate Commerce
Commission and prohibited strikes by making them a
crime.
January is nearing and the senate usual is hope

abandoned Of action before the expiration Of federal

QUESTION RAISED
AS TO CONTRACTS I
WITH RAILROADS
Some Considerably Below
Government Price and
Increase Means Loss
d on Output

Coal mining operations in the Bir-
mingham district yesterday were about
on normal basis with the usual Satur-
day pay day lay off From several of
the mines came reports of full crews at
work, while few operators stated that
they had more applications than jobs.
This condition did not prevail through
out the district, however, as at some of
the more important mines there was a
slackening due to shortage of labor.
Union officials claimed that large
numbers of men quit work yesterday
and that their ranks would be consider
ably augmented tomorrow. At one or
Two places it was stated that the miners
mad met and voted to strike again, but
1t is not believed that such ACTON will be
taken generally through the district.
The men understand, it is said. that
any agreement between two or more men
not to work in the mines, or to do any
thing that would prevent others from
working, would put them in contempt of
court.
Wherever the miners quit it will be as
individuals and through no concerted ac-
ton, it is stated.
Some of the operating companies in
this district have contracts with the
railroads at less than the government
Price. They made these contracts dur
ing the spring and summer when the de-
mand for steam coal was light, and in
competition with western Kentucky and
Tennessee mines. They cut the govern
ment price by several cents ton, there
by reducing their profits close to the
vanishing point
