Laws now In effect in Russia. II the
defenders Of soviet rule could bring
themselves to be honest ana abandon
all pretense of democratic practice.

about this Code Of Labor Laws. What
makes it interesting; particularly to

MINERS URGED TO
C0BACK TO WORK
President Promises Confer
ence for Adjustment of
Inequalities.

Washington. President Wilson,
through the United Mine Workers of
America, Friday appealed to striking
| mine laborers of Illinois and Indiana
to return to work.
Inequalities in the existing wage
scale-held by the strike leaders to
be the cause Of the walkout which
| closed most of the bituminous mines
in the two states-may exist, the pres
| ident said He added that he could
not recommend correction Of any in
eaualities until the strikers returned to
their Jobs, but that when they did he
would invite the joint scale committee
of operators and miners to meet for
the purpose Of adjusting any such in
eQualities.
The president telegraphed his ap-
peal to the United Mine Workers Of
America after he had studied report
on the coal situation submitted by
Secretary of Labor Wilson.
Reports of strikes of mine laborers,
particularly in Illinois. the president
said, had been received by him with
feeling of regret and. sorrow" He
declared that he was distressed not
only because failure to mine coal in
accordance with the terms Of the ex-
listing contract would result In suf-
fering during the coming winter, but
also because "the violation Of the
terms of your solemn obligation i'm
pairs your good name, destroys the
confidence which is the basis of all
mutual agreement and threatens the
very foundation of fair industrial re-
lations."
Pointing out that the United Mine
Workers constitute the largest single
labor organization in the world, the
president said mo organization could
long endure that sets up its strength
as being superior to its plighted faith
or its duty to society at large"
In compliance with the wishes of
President Wilson, John L. Lewis, presi-
dent of the United Mine Workers of
America, will issue mandatory order
instructing all miners now on strike
in Indiana and Illinois to Immediately
return to work, so as to permit the
normal operation Of the mines, it was
announced at miners national head
quarters in Indianapolis Friday.

ion home rule.

GRAIN CARS FOR
RELIEF in TEXAS
Delegation Of Shippers in
Washington Receive Best
Assurances.

Dallas, Tex.-Diversion of $500 grain
cars to the Texas grain belt before
August 3, followed by the rushing of
cars to the Texas shipping points from
the trunk line terminals of the East
and North, is promised by the inter-
state commerce commission for the
relief of Texas grain growers and ship

James z. George, vice president and
general manager Of the Texas chamber
of commerce, with ]. S. Cullinan Of
Houston, president of the state cham
ber and others, on behalf of Texas
grain growers and shippers.
The Texas delegation was given as
surance that everything possible would
be done and that more cars would be
allotted to Texas this year than last
year at the close of a session Friday,
during which the problems Of the
Texas grain men were discussed il

DRAFT DESERTERS TO
BE NAMED BY STATES
Change Has Been Made In
the Plans for Publication
of 10000 Names.

Washington-Pub of the list
OF more than 10000 draft deserters
soon to be made by the war depart
ment, will be by states over a period
of several weeks and possibly months
instead of having simultaneous publ
cation for the entire country, accord
ing to information given Saturday.
The reason for the change in plan
is that the force in charge Of the
draft records would be unable to an
swer requests for information and
handle all the cases that would be
rushed to Washington at one time if
there was but single publication.
By announcing the names, state by
state, the draft record force and Off
GERS engaged in the roundup of desert
ers, will be able to keep up with their
work, it was stated.
War department officials still are
engaged in checking the names OF the
deserter list. 1t has been this check
ing that has delayed the long-awaited
announcement of the draft names, as
finally sifted down. Great care has
been exercised with the result that the
present list is only one-third the size
1t was when the l1ts of deserters were
brought together here from the state
adjutant generals.
One reason for care Is that the pub
lication means that the government
automatically offers $50 for the cap
ture of each man listed, total Of
s7,5O0,O0O.
1t is certain that there are hundreds
Of draft deserters who are not in the
United States at all This is indicated
by the number of letters from foreign
countries In which draft deserters ask
information as to the terms on which
they may return. Most of these let
tiers come from South America and
Mexico and there is current of home
sickness evident in what they write.
The only terms the government is
willing to offer is that the deserters
face trial The usual prison sentence
Is six months, unless the case is ex
ceptional, as that OF Grover Cleveland
Bergdoll, who was sentenced to five
years.

teen minutes and forty-five seconds.
In capturing the series and retain
Ing possession Of the Americas tro-
ply, Resolute came from behind after
Shamrock had taken two races, and
won out by registering three straight
and impressive victories. Shamrock
won the initial race when the defender
was forced out by accident to her rig
ging, and captured the second in a
tickle wind that left Resolute becalm-
ed most Of the way. Resolute won
the third by her time allowance of
seven minutes and one second. run

Her other two victories were won boat

II am very sorry. but the best boat

mark as Resolute cross the line a vic

baronet's fourth attempt to capture
the trophy.
1--WE all did our best-skipper, de-
