WANT STRIKE LAWS
Would Jail Miners if They
Refuse to Work

Montgomery, Ala.-A commission
appointed by Governor Kirby to in
vestigate the coal miners strike re
ports that present laws make it inn
possible to settle this dispute. 1t is
recommended that a tribunal be APP
pointed by the state supreme court
and that the decisions shall be as
binding of decisions by circuit courts
Under this scheme if a striker refuses
to go back to work he can be jailed
The commission deplores that coal
prices are going up. 1t says it has
investigated the books of the coal
owners, and that "it is difficult to
understand" why prices are high. AS
a solution, the governor is asked to
appoint another commission.
The miners strike was caused by
the victimizing policy of coal owners
and their refusal to accept the award
of the bituminous coal commission that
was appointed by the president wher
the nationwide strike was called of
last fall
The strikers have asked for the ap.
pointent of a federal commission, anc
promise to abide by the award Of that
body.

From Interfering With Indi-
vidual Contracts

Charleston, W. Va. Officials of the
international and state organizations
of the United Mine Workers have been
enjoined BY the supreme court of ap-
peals from interfering with what the
coal owners claim are individual con-
tracts with employees.
These contracts provide that the
signer valves his right to do a law
ful thing-to join a trade union while
in the employ of the company The
injunction is in line with a decision
by the United States supreme court,
December 10, 1917, in what is known
as the Hitchman case. This company
enforced these contracts as one of the
conditions Of securing employment at
its mines. The late Federal Judge
Dayton issued an injunction against
organized miners, who were charged
with attempting to induce employees
to break their contract because they
discussed trade unionism with several
of these workers. The district court
Of appeals, at Richmond, annuIled the
injunction, but on appeal to the
United States supreme court, the in
junction was sustained.
Under this rule an employer may
take advantage Of a workers neces-
sites and is assured support by courts
through the injunction process.

''STUBS HIS TOE"
an't-Strike" Allen Makes
Another Blunder

Topeka, Kan. II Governor Allen
"stubbed his toe" IN answering Pres
ident Gopers' lacest attack on the
Kansas "can't-strike" law. While ad-
vocates of this legislation ever have
in mind the supplanting of labor
unions by legislative decree to govern
wages and working conditions, Gov
ernor Allen made the serious mis-
take of acknowledging this intent.
At the last meeting of the local
central body delegates agreed that
the governor has furnished labor with
a strong argument against both the
law and his reelection.
Despite the governors claim that
the law is beneficial to the industrial
workers, to date he is giving indus
trial sections, and especially the min
ing section, wide berth. He is
making speeches to the farmers on
the need for this legislation, while
the miners suggest that he call on
them.

How nwaIlopo Originated.

An incident Of interest in English
and French history occurred in the
year 1914. The French fleet ravaged
the coast Of Sussex and burned
Brighthelstone, now Brighton, where
upon Sir John Wallow, one Of the best
naval commanders Of his time, was
sent by Henry VIII to make reprisals.
In this he succeeded only too well; he
burned n French villages, demolished
several harbors, and thrashed the en-
emy TO his hearts content. His men,
however, proud Of his achievement de-
clared that they had walloped the
French Thus there came into the
English language as synonym for
thrash the new word wallop.

PARIS TAXES UP AUTONOMY FOR
 UPPER SILESIA

Berlin, July 6-s.Paris must take up again the question of autonomy for Upper Silesia.' is the assertion one hears from Germans throughout the plebiscite area. It is also made by some Poles, and is the opinion too, of many disinterested students of the plebiscite situation. Germans and Poles are miles apart, of course, in their views of what kind of inde- pendence Upper Silesia should have, but the supporters in both camps of the separatist movement agree that the district will be trouble zone for years if it is added to- Poland or remains German.
 The idea of a separate state has long been discussed by Germans who have wished to break away from Prussia and set up an autonomous bundesstaat like that of Bavaria and Wurttemberg. The old imperialist government regarded the movement with stern disfavor and it made no appreciable headway until the revo- lution which overthrow the Kaiser. But it was not until Upper Silesia was made plebiscite battle-ground and the Germans woke up to the pos sfbility of the territory being added to Poland that the question of com p1ete autonomy-that is, the estab- lishment of an entirely separate and i, independent state like Czecho-Slovak- ] ia and o-Slavia-become live issue.
 In dread of Polish annexation the Germans, who contend that Upper Si- l 1esia's mines and industries would be
 ruined under Polish management
 are now shouting for the separation l and making a noise that is heard | above all the din of the plebiscite 1 fight.
 | What the International Commission l at Oppeln is thinking of the sepa 1 ratist project is a deep secret. Of 1 f1ctally the commissioners refuse t, 1 discuss it. The Commissions busi l nes is to hold an election to enabl, 1 the Upper Sileians to say whethe | they want their country to remail German or go to Poland. It is req | sonable to assume, however, that i | the Commission recommended to Pari l reconsideration of autonomy that tn 1 Supree Council, which rejected tn
 proposal last February, would give ] another hearing.
 The most ardent advocates of sep 1 aration are members of the German Center Party, Catholics who seek re igious freedom but are reluctant t
 secure it at the expense of Uppe
 Silesfa becoming Polish.
 l Neither German labor leaders no
 mine operators in Upper Silesia wan 1 separation except as a last resort
 Both in discussing the subject, tern 1 it the lesser of two evils.
 ] But both labor and capital cheris
 the belief that ultimately, if Cppe Silesia goes Polish or becomes a sep
 arate state, Germany will reabsorb il
 Estimates made as to how long
 would take Germany to get Uppe
 Silesia back varied from five t
 twenty years. As the Germans pu
 it, the orientation of Upper Si1esia bound to be west, not east.

 WILL NOT
 COMMENT
Confers With City At torney As To
 Trolleys.

Following conferences with Lucius s. Storrs, trustee of the onnect1cut Company, and City Attorney William H. Comley this morning, Mayor Will son refused to discuss the trolley situ- alton in any shape or form. He linn ited the time for the reporters ques- tions this morning to three minutes and the daily meeting was ended be- fore the gong sounded. He volun- teered no information whatever ex- cept to say that he had talked over the situation with City Attorney Com ley, but informed his listeners he would not say what they talked about.
 The statement of the Connecticut Company puts the entire situation up to the city of Bridgeport, suggesting that jitneys be so regulated thai streets where there are no car tracks be allowed the use of the jitneys.
 The mayor was informed that the traction company puts the entire sit uation up to the city, but he said he had no comment to make. He said he didn't know whether the tro1- ley situation would be taken up by the aldermen at Tuesday nights meeting or not
 That an effort is being made to straighten out the wrangle is showr by the conference held by the mayor with the city attorney. Just what will be done is problematicaL

MINISTER QUITS
 POST IN SOUTH AMERICAN TANGLE

Buenos Aires, July 6-The recent resignation of the Bolivian minister to Brazil, Jose Carrasco because he was not in accord with his govern ment's aspirations for port on the Pacific has caused much comment in South American newspapers and re- yived discussion of the Taena and Africa case.
 The newspapers here publish a re- sume of Senor Carrasco's letter of resignation to his government in which he tells why he cannot fulfill his in- structions to work in favor of obtain ing for Bolivia, through action of the League of Nations, port in the Africa zone, whose ownership is disputed by Chile and Peru.
 The Bolivian diplomat, formerly vice. president of his country, makes an analysis of historical facts which go to show, he says, that Africa all ways belonged to Peru and that Bo. 1ivia. has recognized this in various treaties some of which "were sealed by the blood of Peruvians end Boil vians in combats never to be forgot ten."
 Bolivia, he declared, had nevorthe- less, followed the politics of Chi:e@ has now mingled in the Tacna and Africa dispute, and ''compronise6 her interests. in irremedial form"
 The Minister opposes alliance with Chile of this sort. He adds thai he cannot conceive of the League oi Nations "disposing of the territories of the continent on motives of geo. graphical necessity
 American nations judge that Boli- via has a right to demand an cutlei to the sea, but 1t Is from Chile that cboy1d demand this nj the ports which she took from Bol1vi in the past, not 8 port which belongs to Peru, the minister asserts.
 Chilean and Peruvian newspaper: have entered into a sharp controversy over the merits of his argument.

LONDON-PARIS CAR RATE FARE
 TO BE REDUCED

Paris, July 6-Early announce nacnt is eXpe-ted of the reduction of passenger ates for air travel between ~Lond"n and Paris and many are wondering if the day Is far distant when it may be cheaper to travel by air than by land and sea. At the be- ginning of tho London-Paris air ser vice last year the price for one way ticket on small fast machines was 20 Suineas and I5 guineas on the larger passenger ships. It Is now reported that fares will soon be reduced to 10 pounds, 10 shillings.
 In one recent weeks flying more than 100 passengers were carrie in the LondonParis air service and 1t is hoped that a reduction in p"ice will increase the number of passengers. There have been an ever-increasin humber of inquiries for th5 service but the price has discourage many prospective passengers.
