New England Asks Relief.
Palmer's Instructions were issued
after representatives of the New
England States had conferred here
with the Interstate Commerce Com
mission and the Shipping Board on
ways and means of relieving the
soft coal shortage in New England.
The State representatives, including
Lieut.. Gov. Cox of Massachusetts,,
Lieut.. Gov. Wilson OF Connecticut.
James Starrow. former fuel admins
traitor for New England, and Rep
resentative Rogers, of Massachu-
setts, favor an immediate export
embargo on coal. although they did
not press the demand before the
Commerce Commission and the
Shipping Board?
What action will be taken by the
Interstate Commerce Commission TO
cope with the New England coal
situation was not revealed, but ii
is unlikely that the commission will
be induced to change its present
plan OF handling the freight con-
gestion and the car shortage, which
is one of the causes of the New Eng
land coal famine.

on Mr.. Harding was r. y. Strass-

managers Of Senator Hiram w.

Mr.. Strassburger was one of the
contributors to the Johnson cam

that Johnson would not bolt the
party.
In the meantime Mr.. Harding is
hoping for some means whereby he
can have quiet TO work on his
speech of acceptance. He is said
to have four resorts in mind. but
his chief consideration in all of
them is to find seclusion.

confusion in their first entrance to
the big Coliseum.
The placement of State groups is
made by drawing lots. The South
was well to the front. Alabama.
Virginia, Louisiana, North Carolina,
with Arkansas, Arizona occupied
first place. Pennsylvania was less
fortunate. having drawn 4S which
placed the delegation in the rear.
The afternoon meeting. however,
found all groups satisfied. The
morning session was largely rou-

1,025 Delegates Attend.
The first report made by the cre-
Centials committee shows 1,025 del

ing augmented by new ones almost
hourly. The chairman of the mem

Virginia. reported the addition of
500 clubs numbering $4,000 mem

swift race in the afternoon session
when the question of revision came
up for action. Article ]. section 1,
IN membership was the point which
brought out a volley of talk from
the f1oor. Whether to retain or
eliminate direct membership of the
individual club in the federation
was the question.
Again as in the council meeting
yesterday the States each had a
voice in the matter. Delaware
speaker indorsed the elimination. so
did Oklahoma. Ohio opposed and
soon ran the tilt. The good of the
federation was the point at issue
and the speakers all were sincere
in their belief whether for or
against revision.
Mrs. l.. l.. Blankenburg, of Phila-
delphia, expressed emphatic belief
In the. need for reorganization but
urged do not let us lose one club,
let the States each study the ques-
ton and come prepared to vote
Mrs. Herman Fl. Briney, of Penn
sylvania, declared: "If we adopt
this revision clause We would have
to change our name, We would
cease to be the General Federation
OF Women's Clubs, We would but
become federation of federations
another council of women"
Then after liberal time and
thorough discussion the question OF
aye or nay was put. There were
ayes for sure, but the volume OF
noes showed the question lost. The
individual clubs therefore will re-
tain their direct membership in the
great national body.
