ABE RUEF'S SENTENCE OF FOURTEEN YEARS
 TO TERMINATE TODAY

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. ' (by Asso- ciated Press) ).-Allowing for good be- havior credits, the penitentiary sen tence of Abraham Ruef, political boss whose conviction was the outstanding feature of the famous San Francisco municipal graft cases, expires today, according to records, in the governors office at Sacramento.
 Abe" Ruef was sentenced in 1911 to serve fourteen years in prison. He was paroled in 1915, and since that time he has conducted a real estate business here. He spent three years in jail here following his first indict- ment.
 In Ruef's trial Francis J. Heney, chief of the prosecution counsel was shot and seriously wounded by Morris Haas, member of the jury venire. Haas subsequently, killed himself in jail.

MANY STRIKES DUE T0STRIFE
 BETWEEN MEN

NEW YORK, Jan. 7 (by Associated Press).- .-Ninety-five per cent of the strikes and 75 per cent of the days of idleness in the building trades in the past have occurred through what is known as "snowballing," or con- troversies between wage-earners themselves as to which trade should do the work, says Franklin T. Miller president of the F. w. Dodge Com pany, and formerly director of the division of public, works and construc- tion of the United States department of labor Only per cent, he declares, have been on questions between en- ployer and employe.
 Mr. Miller, who has been in touch with the construction industry in this country for twenty-five years, cited the case of big Chicago hotel cost
 
 been delayed, he said, more than year because of disagreement be- tween skilled workers as to who should handle certain doors because of the preponderance of metal over wood. This, he said, was an inevi- table consequence of the rapid devcl- opment of the industry Analyzing the situation and the building outlook for 1920, Mr. Miller said:
 ''The creation of a board of juris- dictiona1 award by the United States department of labor, board composed of architects, engineers, contractors, material men and wage earners, promises a solution of one of the most difficult labor problems in the build ing industry As result of it de- creased cost of production may be ex- pected. The board of jurisdictiona1 award has been formulated with the full approval of all interests con- cerned who seem to have entered into it without reservation.
 "The labor outlook in the building industry thus promises condition of greater stability during the coming year because of the organized deal- ings between employers and employees, with full recognition of the term con- tract and arbitration principles"
