WILL REJECT FINDINGS
IF NOT LARGE ENOUGH
United Mine Workers of America Are
Also Likely TO Refuse If Work
ing Conditions Are Not
Improved.

Indianapolis, Ind, March 9.-The
United Mine Workers of America will
refuse to accept the findings of the bi.
luminous coal commission unless a
substantial increase in wages and i'm
proved working conditions are ap-
proved, il was inferred in statement
issued to-day from headquarters of the
organization Officials of the mine
workers were absent from the city and
those in charge of the offices refused to
comment on the statement.
Unless settlement of the controver-
sy is made on such basis, the statement
says. the miners will not feel that
full Justice has been done them The
bituminous coal commission was APP
pointed by President Wilson to work
out a suitable wage scale for the min
ers and report on any plans for i'm
proving living conditions after the
strike of miners had ended.
"There has been steady increase in
the cost of living since the first of this
year" resds the statement, rim spite
of the fact Nthat the government repre-
sented to labor last summer that living
costs would be reduced and that the
government would see TO il that this
was done Further promises Of redue-
tions in the cost of living would fall
on deaf ears, as far as the coal miners
are concerned, because they have had
their experience with such promises in
the past, all of which have gone un-
fulfilled"

N4TIONS DELAY MADE !
VAR 4 MONTHS LONGER
Rear Admiral Sims Told the Senate
Committee Which Is Investigating
the Conduct of the War.

Washington, d. G., March 9.-Rear-
Admiral Sims to-day told the Senate
committee investigating the navy's con-
duet of the war that the failure OF the
navy department 10 act promptly on
recommendation and to place the
country's entire naval resources at the
disposal of the allies within six months
after the United States entered the
war prolonged the struggle for at least
four months. He added that it also
unnecessarily jeopardized the outcome,
Declaring that 5000 lives were lost
and Sl00,000,000 spent every day OF
the war, the admiral said the conclu-
sions from his statement were obvious.
Admiral Sims said his criticisms were
directed at the navy's work IN 1917,
and had nothing TO do with the mag
nificent way the navy functioned in
1918, after it really got into the war"
The navy, he said, was not properly
prepared in April, 1917, and the ad-
ministrative machinery was cumber-
some and inefficient. He denied that
his statements constituted "an attack
on anyone and characterized as "ridic-
ulous" statements that he was attack
ing civilian control of the navy de-
partment, which, he said, was essential.
q am at the end of my career and
have nothing to gain and all to lose, =
said Admiral Sims.
He wished to be set right in the eyes
of the country and to refute wide
spread criticisms that he was throw
ing mud at the navy" Admiral Sims
declared. He said he raised no question
of the efficiency of the navy's .partiei-
patton in the war, viewed in its en-
tirety and without regard to the time
element, and was unable to adequately
express his admiration for the navy's
performance in the war insofar as the
machinery that controlled it permit
ted"

DEATH OF OLD RESIDENT.
Asa Harrington, Aged 81, Died After
Long Period of Ill Health.

After many months of failing health,
Asa Harrington. aged 81 years, died at
ii o'clock yesterday forenoon at his
home on Eastern avenue OF chrome
bronchitis. Mr.. Harrington was born
in Williamstown, Oct. 4, 1898, the son
of Daniel and Esther ALLEN Harring-
ton. Of, IL children born to them he

meat business in store where the
Holt barber shop now stands In 1892

for some years after that conducted
market gardening at his home on East
ern avenue. OF his garden Mr. Har-
rington was always justly proud and
many hours each summer he spent very
happily working there. About 10 years
ago he broke one hip, which, although
leaving him with a lameness, did not
prevent his being quite active until
within the past three years, when he
had gradually grown weaker, and had
failed perceptibly since the death OF
Mrs. Harrington, April l6, 1918. Since
Dec. 81, 1919, he had been confined to
the bed, but had been happy in the
compaaionship of his grandson, Ray
moild Eastman. who since his return
from naval service has spent much of
his time in the care of Mr.. Harrington.
He was a member Of Granite lodge,
No. 35, +. and A. NJ, the Eastern Star
and n. +. o. p and attended the Uni
versalist church.
His only near surviving relatives are

and two grandsons, Raymond and Har-
old Eastman.
The funeral viii be held at the house

f. O.'Hokerk, pastor of the Universal
ist church, officiating. 1t is requested
