New York, Dec ga vast plot is
being worked out in Europe to restore

movement and that documents have
been drawn up in Berlin and Buda-
pest as to how the monarchists and
militarists shall proceed.
According to Kerensky, the chief
leaders Of the Kapp military coup in
Berlin last March fled to Bavaria fol
lowing the collapse of the movement.

MISTRESS OF SEAS" NO MORE


New York, Dec. 25.-Great Britain
is preparing. to give up the command
Of the seas to the United States with
out a struggle, information received
here indicates
British statesmen are rejecting all
proposed policies based upon Anglo
American naval rivalry. British pub
lie opinion is now being gradually
guided into acceptance of this doctrine.
The coming into power Of new
mistress of the seas is not acceptable
to a certain imperialistic minority in
England. This group points out that
no nation which has once given up
command Of the seas has ever fully
recovered from the loss.
But the British navy was never
planned to war against the United
States. Therefore the passing Of the
control of the seas into the hands Of
America does not threaten Great Brit
ain, it is held.

MAY SOLVE THE TRIANGLE
YET is NOT LEGALLY RIGHT
Right Of Man to Give Wife to Another
Questioned-Ac Action Finds Sym
pathy in New York.

New York. Dec 90. Does it pro-
mote morality for man to give away
his wife to his friend when the wife
cenfesses that she cares more for the
iriend than for she husband?
This inquiry, aroused BY the action
q A. NJ Botsford in giving his wife
her freedom SO that she could marry
his chum, Raoul Fleischmann, was
answered in various ways by promi-
nent New Workers. today.
The Rev. Dr. John Roach Straton,
pastor of Baptist Calvary Church and
militant reformer, condemned Bots
ford's action.
81 am opposed to anything that
breaks down the marriage VOWS" said
DR.. Straton. "If this practice should
become common the Institution of
marriage would be open to every form
of abuse"
Mrs. S. Edward Young wife Of the
Rev. DIR. Young of Brooklyn said:
Il am absolutely opposed to such a
thing as a man giving away his wife
Think of the distressing effect upon
the two Botsford children"
Mrs. Pauline o. Field, an attorney
said:
| "Mr Botsford was certainly cour-
ageous young man, no matter what
else might be said"
Everyone has the right to be hap
py," said Mrs. John Francis Yawger
secretary of the state federation OF
women's clubs. "The world was not
created just to afford a miserable
place to live in. We cannot blame the
woman if she finds it impossible to be
happy with the man to whom she is
married. 1t is impossible that the
Botsford case may furnish the solu-
ton to others who are in domestic
difficulties"

LESS IDLE MEN
THAN BEFORE WAR
Unemployment Not Now at Serious
Stage Industries Running With
Smaller F0rce-East Hardest
Hit Of All.

Chicago. Dec. 26 When one seeks
to measure the approximate amount
Of unemployment in Chicago he is at
once confronted by an amazing dearth
Of statistical data. Opinions and es-
Inmates gathered from about a score
of men in close touch with the situa-
ton during the last few days, when
averaged up, yield the following:
Unemployment in Chicago up to a
week or two ago affected between
100000 and 10000 workers in indus
Try. Of these about one-half were out
of Jobs; the other half were working
part time Perhaps 80 or 40 per cent
of the employment was seasonal; that
is, it is usual for this time of year.
In 1914-15, when a slump followed
the new tariff act and the outbreak
of the war, it was estimated 900
were out of jobs in Chicago The
present situation is not as acute as
that of six years ago.
Less Than Last Year.
Government figures just out COW
ering the country at large show that
at the beginning of December this
year employment in more than one
half the lines was about 30 per cent
less than a year ago In automobiles,
hosiery, and underwear, mems cloth
ing, leather, boots and shoes, the
slump from q year ago was just 80
per cent. In cotton finishing, it was
"a per cent, in silk Is per cent and
in wooden 80 per cent. Iron and
steel had more employment than a
year ago, when the strike was on, and
ear building had about % per cent
more men. due to increased work on
the railroads.
There is a feeling among business
men that by early spring there viii
be turn for the better here and else
where.
The concensus of opinion seemed to
be that January will see unemploy-
ment still gradually increasing.
A survey of conditions in some out
side industrial centers, gathered thru
unprecedented agencies, may be sum-
married. as follows:
Textile regions of the EGst-hard-
est hit of all; between 35 and as per
cent of unemployment being regis
tered.
Steel and iron, Eastern regions--in-
dependents hard hit and much cur
tailment of forces. Steel corpora
ton plants, working on back log or
ders, operating at 70 per cent.
Situation Elsewhere.
A roll call of some of the indus
trial cities shows:
Cincinnati, O., $4,000 unemployed
out of 100000 workers.
Cleveland, o., 30.5 per cent reduc-
ton in total working force of 225,-
600
Bethlehem, Pa, decrease of $500
in working force of $4,000 in Bethle-
hem steel plants.
Indianapolis, Ind, So metal plants
show decreases of 40 per cent from
July.
Poughkeepsie, N. Y, Chamber of
Commerce reports $500 unemployed
out of 5000 normally working.
Dayton, O., unemployment critical.
Startling rates cut.
st. Louis, Mo-, normal working
force of 10000. 10000 now out of
work.
10000 at work in the silk industries.
One thousand unemployed. Hosiery
mills employing 1900, shut down.
Schenectady, N. T., General Elec-
trio laying few off and not hiring;
few wage reductions.
Rochester, N. Y, out of $4,000
workers, 1880 are now idle. Cloth
ing, shoe and button industries prin-
cipal sufferers.
Bridgeport, CT, metal trades, 49,
900 unemployed out Of $4,000; 48 hour

STATE OWNED
COAL kINE PAYS


Sioux Fails, s. ID, Dee 25 South
Dakota Is the only STATE in che union
whIch is developing q coal mine Of it's
own. 1t is also said that the state
is meeting with great success in its
unique undertaking, and that in due
time ali The state institutions and
many of the cities and towns Of South
Dakota can receive their full supplies
of coal from the state mine.
j. NJ Patton of this city, recently
visited the state mine for the purpose
Of arranging to purchase the fuel
supply for the state Odd Fellows
home at Dell Rapids. The mine is
situated near Haynes, N. d., within
a short distance of the South Dakota
boundary. on the coast line Of the
Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul rail-
way.
Mr.. Patton states that the state of
South Dakota purchased 100 acfes of
land on which the state mine is To-
Gated, and that engineers estimate
there is a supply in sight sufficient to
keep a large force of miners busy
for at least ten years. The entire
tract of 100 acres being underlaid
with a thick deposit of the coal.
Inc state mas erected lO-rOOm
rooming house, a cook house, has pro-
vided hot shower baths for the min
ers. electric lights for the buildings
and mine, built two miles of rail-
road from the mine to the town of
Haynes 1t owns its own locomotives
for hauling cars from the mine to the
main line of the Chicago, Milwaukee
g. st. Paul railway. Plans have been
made for mining two hundred tons
Of coal daily, which will not only sup
ply the needs of all state institutions,
but will leave a surplus for sale to
semi-state ENTERPRISES.
The state will deliver the coal to
the main line Of the Chicago, Mil
waukee & ST. Paul railway for $3.50 a
ton to Sioux Falls is $3.50. This
makes the cost on track to Sioux
Falls $3.50 ton. The cost Of a ton
for hauling anywhere in Sioux Falls
averages $3.50, so the coal can be
placed in the coal bins of Sioux Falls
residents at cost of about $3.50 a
ton--which is less than half the price
charged by local coal dealers for sup
plies of soft coal shipped into the
state from the mines Of the east.

The main results ACCOMPLISHED at the annual
meeting of the American Road Builders Association
held in Louisville, Ky, which put the organization
squarely to the forefront on important questions in
this field.
The salient features Of the principal resolutions
provide that the present policy of guaranteeing
pavement should be discontinued the responsibility
being entirely dependent upon the engineering spec
ifcaons and inspection of the individual projects.
For the purpose Of bringing about cooperation
between all road organizations it was recommended
that a committee be appointed by the association
president to confer with other road organizations in
order to ascertain the possibility Of holding in the
same city the yearly convention in the respective
organizations and at approximately the same time.
1t was recommended that committee uniform
highway signs be appointed for the purpose Of
standardzng signs of precaution and direction and
also to indicate the character of pavement
Relative to the prevailing policy of replacing ex
perenced highway officials at frequent intervals it
was strongly recommended that such officials be
continued in office indefinitely when performing
satisfactory service
Because Of the necessity for federal highway pol
icy involving the most thorough technical econom-
cal and administrative considerations and the urgent
need for an entirely uniform national highway sys
TEN, 1t was recommended that the congress Of the
United States be petitioned to establish commits
sion to prepare and submit plan of further par
tcipation by the government in highway improve
ment. and it provided that commission Of five
be appointed by the association to attend to the
necessary details of laying this resolution before
the proper congressional committees.
Probably the leading step taken through these
resolutions was the looking to the holding Of
joint meetings in the future of all organizations in
tersted in modern highways and it is the hope OF
the forwaTd-looking of this and other organiza-
lions that this important can be successfully
worked out by next year. 1t is realized that road
building has reached such important position in
the affairs OF the nation that large, thoroughly
adequate and comprehensive organization should be
worked out so all correlated problems could be
properly handled. and at the same time the work
could be made to take its righful place among the
big things the country is doing

INCREASED PRODUCTION
IN MISSISSIPPI WAIT

An increase of more than billion dollars in CROP
production in the lower Mississippi Valley has been
made in the 10 years from 1910 TO 1919.
This is taking into consideration the higher prices
received for farm products in 1919 and the short
crop of most products, brought about by unprece-
dented rains during the growing and harvesting sea-
last year.
Conservative figures by several agencies includ-
ing those of government experts, credit the three
states of Mississippi Arkansas and Tennessee with
crop production gain \of s1OO0O0OOOO. No figures
are yet available for Louisianas 1919 crop
The biggest per cent gain made by Arkansas
and Mississippi and Tennessee rank next in the order
named.
The estimated value of Arkansas crops in 1910 was
S592O0000 The estimated worth of last years crons
using the lowest figures for the state amounted o
S3}5OO00O0. However, the state department of ae-i
culture Of Arkansas estimated the 1919 cron yaIua
at Si3s,S73o00. Striking an average, Arkansas has
increased the value of her yearly crops 700 per cent
in 10 years.
Aussissppis crop valuation for 1910 was So 900 ono
The increase as shown by 1919 estimates is nearly
800 per cent. the 1919 crops having value of $500
100000
Tennessee grew in crop production from s70.oooOoo
10 years ago TO s35500oOo0 in 1919.

months my yard has been daily visited
by either a herd OF goats, herd Of
cows, or several horses. Flowers and
shrubbery have disappeared and the
goats have completely destroyed sew

eaten up potted plants that were on
the gallery. Thursday last I had two
visits from combined forces Of goats
and cows. The police station was

about 8 p. m. we had another visit and
again phoned the station when officer
Milton Frank very kindly informed US
that they had no stock officer nor any
one to impound animals, but he could
send up someone to drive them away.
The police emergency patrol arrived
shortly after with two, an officer and
a civilian, out "joy-riding', 1 presume,
