REFUSE PALMER NEW FUND
TO ENFORCE PROHIBITION
Request for 100000 Not included
In Sundry Civil Bill

Washington. Dec. 29.-(By A. P.)-
Need of additional funds for prohibi-
tion enforcement with wholesale viola
tions reported from many sections was
empha sized BY Attorney General
Palmer in testimony before the House
appropriations committee, made public
today for the first time. His request
for $500, 900 was not included by the
committee in framing the sundry civil
bill.
Mr.. Palmer told the committee that
mp to September 80, 1920, 1856 ar
rests for violations had been made. Of
which II 42S cases were recommended
for prosecution by the Department of
Justice.
"Of that number about 10000 arose
during the last three months of that
period" he said, and ! am advised
by the Bureau Of Internal Revenue that
the ratio will increase. II it does not
Increase, there will DO 10000 of those
prosecutions to be handled by district
attorneys during the next year.
Commodore Reynolds, Of the coast
guard, told the committee there was a
big stock OF liquor in the Bahama
Islands. less than forty mics from the
Florida coast, which was smuggled over
in small vessels and flying boats.
The committee refused to inC.lde the
bill a provision TO reward citizens for
giving secret information regarding IL
quor smuggling.

MINERS TO CONFER
WITH OPERATORS
Anthracite Mems General Scale
Committee to Moot Employ. r.
ers Here Today
HOPE TO AGREE ON WAGE

An attempt to adjust inequalities aud
injustices in the present wage agree.
msnt between the anthracite mine work
ers and the coal operators will be made
when a subcommittee Of the miners will
meet with the employers In this, tits
today. ,,s. - z - "a. ~
Thomas Kennedy, chairman Of the
workers committee. said yesterday that
none of the demands OF the hard coal
miners for additional wngc increases
will be dropped, but that an effort will
be made to have the operators eonSider
them as q part Of The ''csistins inequal-
ities." 49,,
Instructions to It's subcommittee to
meet with the operators were given out
following meeting Of the general scale
committee Of the anthracite mine work.
ers In Haxleton. Pa, yesterday. This
action was taken following the refusal
Of the operators to make additional wage
increases Of approximately IL per cent
and a SO minimum rate Of pay for day
laborers.
"Onr sole desire is 10 work out a
constructive program" asserted Mr..
Kennedy, That will give general sstis.
faction to the great body Of anthracite
mine workers and stability in the re-
gion.'
The operators will also be asked by
the subcommittee. IL was learned, to see
that all miners Ia the field get the II
per cent increase recently granted In
| the commissions award. Charges have
been made by representatives Of the
miners that thousands OF miners in the
three anthracite districts have never
received the full Increase.
The miners also will osk the opera
| tors for a fuller Interpretation Of the
statement in their reply which sthtcs
that "if there be individual cases Of
inequality they stand ready to agree
upon constructive remedy
1--WE take this to mean individual
classes and rather indefinite as to what
Interpretation, said the statement is-
sued by the general scale committee.
After denying that they have treated
lightly" the award of the United States
anthracite coal committee. the commit
tees statement takes issue with the
operators reply relative to general dc.
cline Of business activity.

'Bnd refused to 20 any further with II.
30 her sister. feeling sure that the line
was good one, put IL in an envelope
and went and mailed it.
Miss Bates can still hardly belirv,
what has happened in spite Of the foe,
