PEOPLE RESOLVE AGAINST
 POTATO BUG EPIDEMIC

Alarmed by the rapid spread of po- tato bugs over town patches in the past few years, the Flagstaff Board of Trade has petitioned the town council to take some action on the matter. Their stand and viewpoint is we'll expressed in the following, presented to the council last Monday night:
 RESOLUTION
 RESOLVED, That the town council be requested to pass an ordinance re- quiring all persons raising potatoes within the town limits of Flagstaff to take such measures as may be pro- vided by the council to keep the same free of potato bugs.
 It is recited that in the past several years almost all potato patches in town have been infested with bugs, this condition constituting a serious menace to the neighboring ranchers through danger of the pest spreading into the country.
 For the protection of the farmers, therefore, it is urged that residents Of town be required to spray plants or take such other effective measures to remove the bugs as may be directed by the council.
 Presented by the undersigned com. mittee in accordance with a motion duly passed at a regular meeting of the Flagstaff Board of Trade Tues day evening, March II, 1919.

Fuel to Be Distributed to Es-
sential Industries AS
Needed
|CURTAILMENT MAY
REACH FIFTY PERCENT
The Government Has Perfected
Plans to Minimize Distress
During Strike

Washington, Oct. 3o.-The revival
of the fuel administration to deal
with conditions resulting from the
coal strike will not be necessary, DR.
Garfield advised the cabinet today
holding that the war time powers OF
that body are now vested in the
railroad administration which will
have full authority to distribute coal
to essential industries.
While the revival of the fuel ad-
ministration is being urged by gov
ernment officials to prevent boarding
and pfofiteering, the department OF
justice announced that it had power
to handle the situation under the food
control act.
An executive order restoring max
imnm prices for coal will be issued
by the president, probably today. Of
6cials would not say what maximum
price has been determined upon.
Secretary Lane announced at spe-
cial meeting of the cabinet that the
government would not hesitate to cur
tail the consumption of coal by indus
tries fifty per cent, in order that coal
on hand and that available from un-
affected nonunion mines might be
equitably distributed to essential in
dustries. The curtailment list used by
the war industries board during the
war would be taken as a basis, Mr..
Lane said. Plants engaged in the
manufacture of munitions might be
cut off entirely he stated.

MANY LABOR ORGANI.
ZATIONS ARE INVITED

Asked to Be Represented By
Delegates

Washington, Oct 29.-The first
move OF the international labor con-
ference, which formally opened here
today, was to take steps to obtain the
virtual participation of the United
Stat, in the conference although con-
gress has decided against the appoint
ment of delegates prior to ratif1ca-
ton of the peace treaty.
On motion of Baron Mayo des Plan
ches, Italian government delegates,
United States employers and workers
organizations were invited unani-
mously to send representatives to take
part in the conference, which is still
in q state of being organized.
While no attempt was made to OBJ
tain the appointment of governmental
delegates, as such action would have
been in direct conflict with the decis-
ion of congress, the United States
will be represented in the conference
through Secretary Wilson. who open
ed today's session and probably will
continue as conference during the ma
jor portion of it's deliberations. Mr..
Wilson will be proposed by the or
ganization committee as permanent
chairman during the period Of organ
ization at the meeting tomorrow, and
in view of the universal custom of
selecting chairmen Of international
gatherings from the nation acting as
host, no objection is expected.
Secretary Wilson said that he would
accept the nomination in view Of his
Interpretation that the organization
of the conference can not be complet-
ed until the league of nations is Gre
ated, and that the United States is
charged by the Versailles treaty with
the organization of the conference.
The American Federation of Labor
and the chamber of commerce Of the
United States were invited by the or
ganization committee to name the
worker and employer delegates, re-
spectively. to represent this country.
Samuel Gompers, veteran chief Of the
federation will represent the workers.
Decision as to the choice of the cham
ber of commerce will await the ar
rival here tomorrow Of Homer L. Fer

Washington, Oct. 29.-The govern

the nationwide coal strike order for
Saturday.
r Refusal of the miners organization
at Indianapolis to withdraw the order
calling out half a million men brought
instant announcement that drastic &C
ton would be taken to keep the mines
IN operation.
AS to those miners who go on
strike and thereby cartail production
the food and fuel control law with
its recently added criminal penalties
of fine and Imprisonment will be en-
forced without regard to persons. This
attitude of the government, Attorney
General Palmer made clear. does not
affect the right of workers to strike
for redress Of grievances in other
cases where no violation of the law is
involved.
Every resource of the government
in the words Of Attorney General Pal
mer will be used to prevent the ma
tional Disaster certain to follow the
stoppage Of work.
Adequate police protection. with
troops as last resort If neces-
sary will be given those men desiring
TO remain at work. Reports from
government agents show that big
part of the miners ordered to quit
work will stay on the job.
Rights of the public will be pro-
tected through revival of price con-
troll regulations suspended when the
fuel administration went out of eX-
istence February :. This means an
early drop in the price Of soft coal

THERE is FEAR
OF STREET RIOTS

to Prevent Operation Of the

Nashville, Oct. 27.-Following
conference by long distance telephone
with Gen. Baxter Sweeney, adjutant
general Of the Tennessee National
Guard, Governor Roberts tonight CALI
ed for three companies of federal
troops from Camp Gordon, Atlanta,
with full equipment to entrafn at
once for Knoxville.
The following telegram was sent
Ito Maj. Gen. E. M. Lewis, command
ing, officer Of the Camp:
Please entrain two infantry conf

pany, total 800, for Knoxville. Tenn.
E. 3. Sweeney, my ad5utant gem
|eral, is there in charge.
{Signedl "a. H. Roberts, Governor
Of Tennessee"
The governor stated that this meas
ure was taken simply as a precau-
tionary move, not having been occa-
stoned by any renewed rfotfng in
Knoxville today. Acting, however, on
the advice of General Sweeney, the
mayor of Knoxville, the district at
torney, Col. Carey F. Spence, and 9TH
er citizens, the governor said that he
wished to assure Knoxville adequate
protection in case of disorder arising
from the rumored sympathetic strike
"It is geenrally understood in Knox
ville," the governor said. that
sympathetic strike, calling outsover
5000 workers, mainly in the textile
industry, will be ordered at g. huge
mass meeting that is being held /. in
Knoxville tonight. Labor agltatara
have been speaking in all the factor
les and shops today trying to- infane
the workers to point where the
general strike order tonight viii be
obeyed. sS = - 2
Acting, therefore, on advices from
Knoxville. i decided .toa4caaI feattt The
federal troops as "a precautionary
measure. I deemed that course wiser
than waiting until the" city was re-
duced to a state of anarchy and then
try to restore order. am hoping that
the situation will pass off without any
need of these troops, but General
Sweeney thought it wise for me TO
take this step before left Nashville,
as the labor meeting will be over and
the general strike on If it is called
before leave here, in all probability.
Although it had been his intention
to stay in Knoxville only over Tues
day to attend the meeting of the East
Tennessee Law and Order organiza-
ton, Governor Roberts announced to-
night that he would stay in Knoxville
as long as the situation seemed to
warrant his presence. It is his I'M
tention to keep in the closest touch
with the progress of affairs there. y

DY the time the campaign for the

become moody and taciturn. He was
still the cynic, scofiing at generous
impulses: outwardly he professed 10
feel antagonistic toward the loan; and
he continued TO find fault and to seek
the society OF men who expressed the
views he expressed.
But in his heart had begun to grow
a great doubt Struggling within him
for expression. for encouragement,
were emotions that sometimes actu-
ually hurt him He wanted TO ex.
press them; he felt they were the sin
cere impulses OF his nature. But he
had gone too far. now. TO confess to
his friends that he entertained a

watching her. Corwin wondered II he
could ever regain her respect
For he knew that he had lost that
respect. He felt the hostile glances
she sometimes threw at him when he
was not looking at her; and sometimes
when he did meet her gaze he saw her
eyes fash with something that must
have been very near contempt But
Corwin said nothing. There seemed
20 be nothing TO say.
Meanwhile. II appeared that Fall
town was going TO fail again. Despite
the vigorous campaign carried on by
the Liberty Loan Committee, sub
scriptions Jagged. Most OF the towns
citizens seemed TO think as Corwin
had expressed himself-that since the
war was over there seemed to be no
need of any more Liberty Loans.
There was no enthusiasm. no clam
or. no indication OF success. Though
the bond statesmen labored hard, they
made slow headway, When the cam
paign was half over Falltowh had not
raised more than a third OF its quota;
and when there remained only a few
DAYS more. and the Committee re-
doubled its efforts. the goal was still
distant and seemingly unattainable.
Desperately the committee appealed.
and though there were some re-
sponses. when the last day OF the
campaign dawned Falltown was more
than two hundred thousand dollars
behind it's quota. The Committee ex-
pected that perhaps a hundred thou
