HOWAT DEFIANT
IN HIS ATTITUDE
Lewis Awaits Committee Re.
port on Kansas Coal Fields.

Following receipt Of a defiant message
from Alexander Howat, president Of the
Kansas coal miners, John l.. Lewis,
president Of the United Mine Workers of
America, today awaited the report of
an investigating cOmEittee sent into
Kansas before taking any further action
in regard to the unauthorized strike in
that state.
The message from Mr. Howat was in
reply to a message sent by Mr. Lewis
yesterday demanding that the Kansas
strike be ended st once aud that the laws
OF the miners organization be obeyed.
Mr.. Howat's reply follows:
Il received your message this after
noon which l regard as a direct insult.
The cowardly insinuatIon you have made
that l have called the miners on strike
at this time is without the least sem
blance OF truth, and IN conformity with
many other statements you have made.
Had you stood as firmly in defense OF
the mine workers OF the country last
winter. when they were making such a
noble hght to obtain justice at the hands
OF the coal corporations as you are stand
Ing in defense Of the operators at this
time. there would have been no occasion
for the Illinois and Indiana mine workers
10 cease work 10 secure another increase
In wages.
You speak OF demagogues. know
OF no man who IS more " q demagogue
than yourself / am ready to compare
my record with yours al any time and
the miners then may Judge for them
selves who is a demagogue. II you
were as much concerned about the vel
fare Of the miners as you appear TO be
about the coal operators, the condition
Of the mine workers Of the country would

"Your action In sending committee
OF the international executive board here
and your statement that you will take
charge OF the district and depOse me from
Office shall not influence me in the least
have committed no crime; / have not
violated the laws Of our organization and
as far Gs l am concerned you may pro-
ceed to do your worst. bdt during the
time that l am president OF the district.
regardless OF you and all other opposition
that may stand in the path Of justice,
am going to continue to stand for what
I believe is right In behalf OF the men

action on your part shall not influence
me otherwise"
Mr.. Lewis has received the following
letter from President Wilson thanking
him for his efforts In ending the strike.
Your action In response to my state
ment urging the striking miners to re-
turn to work has gratlhed me very deep
ly indeed. IL is the action OF patriotic
citizen and a man of vision and preset

that in urging the men to return to
work l was speaking in their interest as
much as in the interest Of the general
public and OF the industrial energy OF

GARAGE NEEDED
FOR STOLEN CARS
Automobiles Parked on Pearl
Street Block Traffic.

Indianapolis needs a garage in which
to store stolen automobiles recovered by
the police until such time that the own
ers claim their cars, according to city
authorities.
The barns at police headquarters, built
many years ago, were large enough for
the need of those days, but not now.
The barns are filed with the regular
police ears and few stolen automobiles.
but ten stolen cars are in Pearl street
along the side of the headquarters build
ing.
So narrow is Pearl street, which is
really an alley, that the ten cars are
parked so as to block the south side
walk and to extend into the street.
This condition makes it almost impos-
sible for the police cars and automobile
trucks to pass through the street when
a transfer and furniture company are
engaged in loading their trucks in the
rear of their store rooms.
It is not possible for the police to at
once turn stolen cars over to owners un-
til detectives have investigated each car,
as many Of them contain parts of various
stolen cars and must be taken apart.

for special judges of the criminal court,
$500. and for expenses of apprehending
prisoners for the Juvenile court, 500, in
