CONGRESS MAY PASS NEW LAW
 OF EXEMPTION

WASHINGTON, D. C., June D. Representative John E. Raker, Dem ofcrar, of California, has intro duced a resolution in the lower chamber of Congress providing for the further suspension of the law requiring assessment work on min ing claims. The resolution pro- poses the extension of the exemp- tion clause until December 11th of the year following the conclusion of the war
 In introducing his measure for the relief of mining men, Repre- sentative Raker explained that many owners of mining claims are still in the service overseas and will not return home in time to at- tend to their assessment work un- der the present law.
 The belief prevails here that the resolution will be approved. The last Congress approved a resolution suspending assessment work for the year 1919.

CANADIAN SOLDIERS ARE
 THREATENING UNIONISTS

This hostile attitude on the part of the soldiers had much to do with the sudden collapse of the strike. Mayor Gray issued a state ment this morning in which he said that he understood the soldiers had threatened to wreck the labor tenn pie, and there is serious talk among the fighting men of making an example of the labor leaders because of their attempted assump- ton of authority.
 The strike situation has been suddenly reversed. Union leaders who sought to and actually did run

WASHINGTON, D. C., June 5.- According to information received in this city today from Paris, the peace conference is now engaged in modifying the German peace terms, the explanation of this un- expected action being that the ar guments advanced by the German delegates have convinced the AL lied peacemakers that the terms, as presented to the delegation, inn posed too great burden upon the German government. The modified tions now under consideration will make the terms easier of execu- tion.

 CAUSES DEATH
 ON COAL ROAD

WILkESBARRE. Pa, June D. Eighty coal miners, who were rid ing to work this morning on trolley train laden with a cargo of black powder for use in the mines near this city, were blown into eternity when the powder was exploded by an electric spark caused by the breaking of the troll ley.
 The force of the explosion was terrific. the powder car being blown into bits and the bodies of the unfortunate victims being scat tered over the right-of-way for rods about the wreck. There were over one hundred and twenty men on the train at the time of the accident, and of these none escaped injury. Many of the injured have succumbed since their recovery from the wreckage, and it is feared that many more will die.
 The train was proceeding at a rapid speed when the trolley broke, and the explosion followed almost ! immediately, before the men could be warned of their danger.

of the habit of thrift.
Mr.. Glass writes:
The Secretary of the Treasury,
Washington, September %, 1919.
To the school boys and school
girls of America: In addressing
the twenty million or more school
boys and girls OF this country, l
am addressing the citizenship
the business and professional
men and women, the producers
and consumers and the home
makers OF only a few years
hence The responsibility of all
the problems of our country VIII
ultimately fall on you. The spirit
OF patriotism and helpfulness
which you displayed during the
world war has proved your fit
ness for your future RESPONSE
bility Your record in production
of needed materials during the
war, your saving of food and
money, and your investment in
government securities is a record
of which every American citizen
is justly proud.
II is the earnest desire of your
government that you should con
tinuo TO practice and make per-
manent those same habits of in
dustry and economy, that through
your influence anu example
America may soon become ma
ton of savers and cease to be a
wasteful nation; that this may be
a nation OF people who always
save some part of their earn
ings, who spend money with
greatest care, and who invest
what they save in some safe
place.
am glad to see that our
school boys and girls have con-
tinued during the vacation
months to save their money and
are buying thrift and war savings
stamps, thus laying aside a por-
ton Of the money they earn for
some future purpose, and while
they are continuing 10 render
some service to their govern
ment, they are at the same time
providing for their own needs.
The habit of earning and saw
ing money is a most Interesting
and happy one. ! am sure that
this habit has become so fasci-
mating TO you that you will con-
tfnue to earn and to save
through all the months and years
to come and keep investing what
you save in government securi-
ties.
II is my personal hope that the
lessons of thrift that are being
taught in your school may help
you to develop in your life per
!. manent habits of saving and
thereby lay a foundation for pour
personal happiness and useful
ness and ultimately for bigger
and better America.
Sincerely yours.
