Community Buildings

One result of neighborhood and
community activity during the war
has been the increasing desire in
many regions to make this work
permanent. To this end certain
neiehborhoods are preparing to &C.
quire buildings originally erected
for other purposes and transform
them into community centers.
Other towns which have temperate
ly maintained headquarters for sol
diers camping in their vicinity pro-
pose to make these headquarters
permanent and broaden the scope
of their service to the benefit of all.
An interesting feature of the move
ment is the construction of com.

Handouts Found

Part of a pair handouts, found

believed to be the pair that MILFORD
Landlord, alias Harry Wells, wore
when he escaped from the east

ILL.,, sheriff was wounded and Rober
Bumster and the actor, Vack, were
fatally shot. Macon people believe
that Landlord found some way to
break the handouts soon after he
jumped from the train and that he
them doubled back to Macon and
took a train from there, thus max
ing good his escape.
His brother, Francis Landlord
who did the shooting and who was
himself wounded, is now serving a

in Macon county is believed to es

PRESIDENT ON THE JOB


nounced Saturday night that the
coal strike set for November 1 can.
not be permitted under the laws Of
the government for protection of
society. The government, he says.
will use every means within its
power to prevent the strike and
keep the mines operating.
The decision means that unless
the miners call off the strike the
government will not hesitate to use
its military power to keep the
mines running
But the President hopes that
such action will not be necessary
and appeals to the officers of the
union and to the miners as individ-
uals at once tn recall all strike Or
ders, announcing that he stands
ready to see that their differences
with the operators are'fairly adjust
ed by arbitration.
The Presidents statement was
issued after his Cabinet had gone
over the entire situation with Sec
rotary Wilson of the Labor Depart
ment, whose efforts to bring miners
and operators together in negotia-
tons had failed.
That Congress will stand by the
government in its stand against the
coal strike is certain.
The President, in his statement,
reviewed the steps leading up to the
strike call, including the Cleveland
convention of the United Mine
Workers of America one month ago
at which the demands for a 80. hour
week and a go per cent increa &c in
wages we're formulated.
There was no direct intimation
of what steps the cabinet had dis
cussed to prevent stoppage of work
should the Presidents solemn warn
ing to the miners to resCind the
strike order. fail of results. 1t was
regarded as significant. however.
that attention was drawn in White
House circles to the statements
made by Secretary Baker in re-
cent address in Cleveland. when he
announced that department COM
manders had been directed to furn-
ish troops at the request of govern
Ors without referring the matter to
Washington. Major General Wood
in the Central Department has al
ready exercised that authority in
the steel strike situation.
1t was learned that the govern
ment is relying on the Lever Act to
combat the coal strike should it de-
velop to the stage where it would
cause distress and suffering through
out the country.
The Lever Act gives the Presi-
dent broad powers to take any steps
necessary to insure the continuous
production of necessities during the
war emergency which extends until
the proclamation of peace. Attor-
ney General Palmer has declared
the government has ample power
to act under this law against any,
one who halts production, Fuel is
specifically mentioned in the act, as
is the word mine"
Without further authority, it was
pointed out, the President can take
over the mines for government oper-
alton. as it is provided any factory.
establishment. mine or plant can
be thus seized to insure production.
The government also has power to
act against strikers. as being guilty
of stopping production.

Fight "DN". Law,

The first move TO prevent a vote
of the people of Missouri on the &C.
ton of the state legislature in ratify-
ing national prohibition occurred
Friday when j Elmer Ball of St.
Louis, attorney for the Missouri
Anti. Saloon League, filed an ap-
plication in the Cole County Circuit
Court for a permanent INDUCTION
against the secretary of state and
the attorney general to prevent
them from certifying the measure
under referendum petition to the
election officials of the various
counties.
The contention of the pleadinRs
is that enough states have ratified
the amendment to comply with all
the requirements of the Constitution
of the United States aud it is be.
yond the power OF any single state
to in any way change a part of the
organic laws Of the United States;
that National prohibition is now a

vain and useless proceeding to
submit such a proposition to the
voters of this state, and would at
the same time result in consider
