GARFIELD RAPS
COMPROMISE IN
MINING STRIKE
Declares Settlement Plan Is
Unsound and Menace
to Our Institu-
tionS.

Chicago, Jan. 25.-Dr. Fl. A. Gar
field, former fuel administrator, in
all article written for farm and
home, declares the compromise thai
ended the coal strike to be "ur
sound in principle and menace to
our institutions"
DR.. Garfield Gays:
THE wages now paid to mine
workers are sufficient. The oppor-
tunity that should be the mine work
ers cannot be secured merely by an
increase i'll wages"
In proof Dr.. Garfield cites the
average of $3.50 per annum earned
by the lowest paid miners work
ing 1870 days in the year, while for
200 days work the average miner
in the bituminous fields Of Penn
sylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois
earned $3.50 in 1918 and 81 800 last
year. This is more by a consider
able sum than the average net re-
ceipts of the farmer and many 9TH
crs who may or may not work 500
days or more in the year." he said.
The public ought not to be asked
TO pay more for COAL" emphasizes
the ex-fuel administrator. 1T is
impossible to increase the wages of
the mine workers without melting
the workers in ever other industry,
including, of course, agriculture, to
demand an increase in wages. This
would send the cost Of living upward
in vicious spiral, which will, III
the end, prove hurtful to the work
ing man. The purchasing power
of the dollar and not the number Of
dollars received is the important
factor.
THE public is the chief sufferer;
when the capital and labor engaged
in the production Of commodities
necessary to the support of life fall
fighting" continued DR.. Garfield.
"We may admit the right to strike
on the part of labor and the right
of capital to boycott, but in each
case the right of the public to live
is paramount, and will be asserted.
Therefore, | say, when the con-
flict is on in great industry, the
issue must be fought out or COM
promised, but when the public inter
est is involved and government
representing the public takes
hand, compromise ought to be i'm
possible. An industry charged with
public interest, such as coal, can
no longer be considered free to
withhold its product from the pub
lie by any movement whatever by
capital or labor.
I'VE now are called upon to con-
template an arrangement with
group of opposing the government,
which it terminates, is unsound in
principle and a menace to our insti-
tutions."
To guard against affairs reach
ing the strike stage, DR.. Garfield
urges permanent fuel administra-
ton as a consultive and advisory
tribunal.

FRENCH STAND
ON Marine TO Be
MARKED BY j. s,
$250,000 Statue Will Be
Erected at Turning Point
of German Ad-
vance.

New York, Jan. 25.-A colossal
stone statue, one of the largest of
the worlds sculptured monuments,
is to be placed by American citizens
on the river Marine to commemorate
the victorious stand by the French
there in 1914, according to plans an
nounced by Thomas w. Lamont Of
]. P. Morgan & Co. The statue,
nearly as large as the Statue Of Lib
erty, is to be known as Americas
Gift to France" A committee OF
representative citizens, of which Mr..
Lamont is chairman, has already
completed plans for the monument
and funds for its erection will be
collected in the early days of March.
1t is expected that the cost will ap-
proximatelv be $250,000 and this
amount will come as free will Of
fering i'll sums of any amount from
citizens in every part of the United
States.
No Campaign Funds.
"The committee will not conduct
campaign or drive for funds"
said Mr.. Lamont. State chairmen
are being appointed i'll each state
and these men will make arrange
ments for the collection Of the COM
paratively small amount of money
necessary from each state to make
this memorial possible. Lovers of
France in every state have already
come forward as volunteers.
The committee has selected Fred
crick MacMonnies as the sculptor.
He is at work on the preliminary
sketches and will leave for France
shortly to complete his drawings.
Several preliminary models are also
nearing completion.
No Location Picked.
The exact location of the statue
has not ys. been determined, but it
will be at spot near the little town
of Meaux, on the Marine, which
forms the high water mark of the
German advance in 1914. Marshal
Joffre and Marshal Foch will to-
getler fix upon the exact location.
The erection of this memorial has
already IeCclVcu tlle HlShSol olHNidl
sanction, the French ambassador
having cordially approved it, and M.
Pichon, when minister of foreign
affairs, on behalf of the French gov
eminent, having formally accepted it
with an expression of gratitude.
The movement to erect this me-
mortal began in 1916, when a few
far-seeing men realized what the
desperate stand of France at the
Marine meant to the world. The
preliminary plans were under way
when the United States entered the
war, but were postponed for obvious
reasons.

$1OO Bills Come Out of Box
With Speed Like Mauic

New York, Jan. ga wooden
box, a foot high and several feet
long, with revolving metal plates
on the top and bottom, which by
electric manipulation seemingly
changed pieces of paper into brand
new 500 bills with speed and skill,
was the cause of the arrest here of
Henry Klein on the charge of hav-
ing a fake money-making machine
in his possession. The police be-
lieve, they said, that men have been
operating among foreigners out Of
town, and selling the machine to
any buyer who had $500 and was
ignorant of the law. AT the police
station the machine, when set in
motion, with great noise and buzzing
exchanged three pieces of paper,
marked with red and blue, ink marks
to represent the threads of federal
banks notes for three new 500 bills.
About year ago, according to the
police, a man named Lopez, from
Pittsburgh, together with band OF
swindlers, operated in this city and
other places selling a similar ma
