WILSON TO COOLIDGE
Victory for Law and Order" He
Wires Massachusetts, Governor.

Washington. Nov. 4.-Presioent Will
son from his sick bed today tele-
graphed Gov. Calvin Coolidge of Mas
sachusetts, congratu1ating him on his
reelection, which the president said
was a victory for law and order.
The telegram follows:
Hon. Calvin Coolidge, Boston, Mass
Il congratulate you upon your cleo
tion victory for law and Aortier
When that is the issue, all Americans
stand together.
(Signed) WOODROW WILSON"
Administration officers shared the
presidents view. They said Governor
Coolidge's sweeping victory should go
far to encourage officials generally
over the country who are combating
radical propaganda, disorder and gen
eral social unrest.
In reply to President Wilson's con-
gratulations on the result of the state
election, Governor Coolidge sent the
following message to the White
House:
Il deeply appreciate your telegram
of congratulation. I trust the election
here will aid in the uphoIding of, the
laws of America in particular and
strengthen the hand of righteous

Railroad Agreement Only Saves
State Heating Plant.
Agree They Won't Confiscate
Lansing Prison Fuel.
OTHER SUBJECT TO SEIZURE
Bins at Several Institutions
Are Nearly Empty.
Officials at State House Frankly
Alarmed Today.

Railroad administration officials will
permit transportation of prison coal to
Kansas state institutions. That assur-
ance to James A. Kimball. state mana
ger, today saved the state heating
plant from a closing order But no
assurances could be secured that the
railroads would not commander coal
bought under contract and enroute to
state schools and charitable institu-
tionS.
The state heating plant this morn
ing began scraping the bottom of coal
bins and bunkers. But a telephone
message from Warden J. K. Codding
at the state prison at Lansing, stated
that car of coal was started to To-
peka yesterday and should be deliv-
cred late this afternoon. Two addi-
tional cars will be loaded for the heat
ing plant today.
Concern at Capital.
There is real concern as to the coal
situation facing the state. Members
of the state board of administration
are not in the city. Manager Kimball
is seeking to secure assurances that
coal for the various institutions would
| be delivered by the railroads. This
afternoon the railroad administration
had failed to extend assurances be-
yond the delivery of the coal actually
produced by the state All other coal
is subject to seizure order.
Il will not attempt to forecast the
| result of the present situation" Kim
ball stated today. 1T is beyond my
ability to guess what the administra-
ton in Washington will do. So far as
1 know coal bought under contract for
state institutions is subject to the gen.
| eral orders The Santa Fe, however,
| has been authorized by the raiIroa d
administration to release to the state
all coal mined at the prison plant. We
should have at least one car of this
coal today and a couple of additional
cars tomorrow"
Prison Output Limited.
The prison plant output is limited.
1t is barely sufficient to meet demands
of the heating plant and few of the
small state institutions. All of the
big schools and charitable institutions
rely on supplies bought under con-
tract last fall. Coal supplies actually
in the bunkers of the Institutions are
low and failure of the railroads to de-
liver coal in transit would occasion
hardships and real urfering-espec-
| tally among patients in the state char
| table institutions.

was said today that at this rate the

be out Of Europe by late summer, but
that this would depend largely upon
developments at the peace conference.
or the ships now in the transport
service more than 100 are vessels com
mandeered or built during the war, for
mer German liners seized in American
waters, some few foreign ships held
under charter and battleships and
cruisers fitted u for this purpose
since hostilities ceased. All of these
craft are manned by American naval
crews.
In addition, five German liners re-
Gently sen out from Hamburg are be-
ing used as transport ships and seven
others will be so employed. Some Brit

Americans.
Besides the troopships, the navy de-
partment ia operating more than 200
cargo steamers which are carrying sup

DANAGEDFRANCE
NEEDS YOUR AID
Not to Rebuild 1t, But to Give
People Start to Make
Living.

Cnder the auspices Of the Chamber
Of Commerce and the Nineteenth Cen
fury club, an active campaign is in
progress TO raise a fund Of $4,000 by
voluntary subscriptions in Memphis for
the American Committee on Devas-
tated France. The first step in the
campaign was the organization by
Comte Jarvis, travelling representative
OF the National committee, with the
assistance OF Miss Augusta Semmes,
anu MIS- Arthur s, Buchanan. presi-
ueHt OF the Nineteenth entury club,
OF u strong, enthusiastic teams of
women, representing II Of the local
women $ clubs n auXiliaries.
A most enthusiastic meeting Of all
women on these teams was held at
Inc Nineteenth Century club Monday.
The campaign for raising the fund
was started by the women OF the Mem
PMS unit, National Council of Defense,
which contributed 500, and by Mrs.
George Gunther. who made stirring
appeals At her regular French lectures
at the Cossitt library, which brought
forth an immediate response in the
Iorm OF the sum of Sl26 for devastated
France.
Comte Jarvis made a splendid talk
on the subject of what the fund is
really for. 1t Is not, he said, as most
people have been led to believe, for
the purpose of rebuilding France, but
to supply the French people in the de-
Vastated regions with the absolute
necessities Of life, and to keep them
from starving to death, as they have
no implements, no materials, and no
possible way to raise food lat present.
You cannot at present rebuild
France" he said, but you can heed
the cry of her people who are calling
to you to give them a chance for life

starving, so that In time, they may
rebuild the land for which they have
sacrificed all"
Miss Semmes is confident that the
people OF Memphis will respond now
as always in the past, to the call to
support a worthy cause.
The teams will conduct a canvass
Thursday, Friday and Saturday for the
required sum, There are about 200
women on the teams. They will have
the cooperation OF teams aggregating |
some 200 men, who will be selected
Wednesday afternoon at a general
meeting Of the membership OF the
Chamber of Commerce called at $3.50 !
on the sixth floor for that purpose.
Fifteen hundred letters appealing for
contributions to assist the destitute
French people in the invaded regions
throughout the city. These letters are
signed by Marion Evans, acting presi-
dent of the Chamber of Commerce. |
They are expected to prepare the way
for the canvass during the latter three
days of the week and the teams of
men and women win call on the per-
sons TO whom the letters were ad-
dressed.
