NEW York, Oct 27.-Practical ap'
plication of the "love your neighbors"
principle by Americans is necessary to
restore normal trade conditions with
Europe, Edward Fflene, of Boston
director of the United States Cham
ber of Commerce told the New York
clerical conference today.
Granting credits, particularly to
small European countries, in order to
bolster up exchange rates until the
enormous trade balance in favor of
this country is lessened is necessary
to save weaker countries, he said.
If bankers are forced to assume the
entire burden of credits, Filene said
they must demand absolute security
and nations that are in most need
and consequently have least credit,
will suffer.

ENERGY AND AMBITION
RECLAIMED BY OLD MAN

The controversy as to who first
performed the gland implantation op-
Grafton continues.
DR.. Stanley today received cable
gram from DR. Serge Voronoff, the
Paris doctor who claims to have
originated the operation. The cable
gram reads:
Hear with pleasure Of your appli-
cation of my method. l do grating
by dividing glands into many pieces
and putting them in their natural
place"
Credit, however, is given by DR..
Stanley to DR.. Frank Lyndston for
first performing the operation. His
report on a successful transplanting
Of glands was made one month prior
to DR.. Voronoff's report, according
to medical records.
Voronoff's operation concerns the
thyroid interstitial gland of the neck,
whereas Lyndston, Stanley and Kel-
ker transplant the reproductive inter
stitial glands The prison doctors
are receiving a great flood of letters
from men and women in all parts OF
the United States inquiring concern
ing the operation. Many of the letters
ask that the operation be performed
on the writer, and state that money
is no object.
The doctors in reply state the op-
Grafton still is in its experimental
stages. They hope, however, to de-
velop it to the stage where glands
may be transplanted from goats or
apes to humans.
They have a large colony of guinea
pigs segregated as to color and will
experiment to ascertain whether
transplanted glands carry with them
,ny physical characteristics Of the
donor.

SPRINGFIELD, H., Oct. 27.-Offi-
cials Of the United Mine Workers OF
america today stood pat on their
strike call for next Saturday.
John L. Lewis, acting president
of the union, on his arrival at his
home here from Washington, state
The. situation was unchanged by the
appeal of President Wilson to cancel
the strike order.
II thank God we have country
where men may strike" Lewis said.
MAY the power of my government
never be used to throttle and crush
The efforts of the toiIers to improve
Eheir material welfare and elevate the
tandard of their citizenship"
A reply to the presidents appeal will
probably be drafted by the executive
board of the union at meeting to be
held in indianapolis Wednesday. The
board meeting was called to make
final definite arrangements for the
walkout.
Lewis placed the blame for the
ktrike on the shoulders of mine oper.
btors.
THE coal mine operators have not
offered one constructive suggestion
designed to avert this catastrophe" he
paid. During the Washington con-
ference with Secretary Of Labor Will
BON, We offered repeatedly to enter
hegotiations with the mine operators
without reservation to conclude the
making of an agreement. This offer
lwas declined"
Miners have averaged only $75 a
month during the last twelve months,
Lewis stated In explaining the de-
mands of 60 percent wage increase
and shorter day.
The shorter day would extend the
working period more evenly over the
entire year." he said. "Since the ar
nistice was signed, miners have
worked on an average of only three
days a week"
