TROUBLE WHEN WIFE.
 REFUSED EXEMPTION

That their troubles began when she refused to sign her husbands exemp- ton papers was the claim made by Mrs. Iona E. Powell in Judge Lyman's court yesterday where she secured a divorce from Guy B. Powell, a railroad man.
 Mrs Powell stated on the witness stand that she would not claim exemp- ton from military service for Powell and that after she declined to do so he treated her cruelty. She told of an occasion when he wrenched her arm with such force that she became un- conscious from the pain. Her son by a former marriage corroborated her testimony and neightbrs testified as to the happening and the fact that they saw Powell make a hurried es- cape from the house.

The Why's Of
the Strike

These are the outstanding facts con-
corning the coal strike and what led
up to it:
United Mine Workers of America,
meeting at Cleveland, September %,
sounded the first strike alarm by de-
claring the war time wage agreement
ended on November 1.
Executive officers, charged with the
duty of negotiating a new agreement,
were ordered to stand out for three de-
mands, and IL not granted, to issue a
strike call for more than 100000 soft
coal miners in 2S states. These de-
mands were:
A five-day working week; n six
hour day and wage increase of 50
per cent.
At scale committee meetings at Buf-
falo and Philadelphia, miners and op-
orators threshed over their differences
without settlement. Representatives
of the sminers contended that the de-
mands were not arbitrary, that the 81
per cent wage increase was set as a
basis for negotiation; that a six-houl
day meant actual time the miners were
to work underground.
The miners insisted on five-daS
week, they said, because there was mo-
four days week the year around fol-
each miner. They contended by limit.
ing each miner to five days there
would be more equitable distribution
of the work. The leaders denied tina
| 1t was the beginning of a nation wild,
campaign for a shorter working
| schedule.
After failure of the two sides to ge
together the strike order was issuet
and Secretary of Labor Wilson, actinl
| by direction of the presidents cabinet
Immediately called into conference tn
heads of the mining and operating
associations. Subsequently the full
scale committee of each were called Il
| and various proposals were offered an,
rejected
The final proposal was made b
President Wilson. 1t suggested nego
tiation without reservation, submission
Of questions stu in dispute with tn
failure of negotiation, to arbitratio
and to continued operation of tn
mines, pending final settlement.
The operators, as set forth in
statement by Secretary Wilson, ac
cepted the offer in its entirety; tn
miners accepted the offer of negotia
ton, and held the other two for con
sideration later" This, as explaine
by Secretary Wilson, abruptly ende
the conference.
The miners, in the series of confer
ences, charged that while the war
time agreement still bound them (
work at the old wartime scale, it re
moved restrictions on the war price c
coal and permitted operators to charg
what they pleased. This. they declare,
had led to profiteering.
An appeal to the miners by Presider
Wilson and announcement by Attorne
General Palmer that the strike woul
be considered illegal" failed to brin
about resembling of the strike order.
