LOCAL SOCIAL EVENT is

Itobb gave an instructive Current
Events talk. A feature OF the program
was selection, "Winkyn, Blinkyn, and
Nod" by Nevfn rendered by the double
quartette Of the club. This selection
was decidedly pleasing. Mrs. II. s..
Falconer sang the soprano obligato

Jack Abbott and Misses Florence Cav.
ender and Carol Powell. They were
sympathetically accompanied by the
Misses Laura Briggs and Mary Louise
Nichols. Miss Hazel Book was also an
accompanist OF the evening.
A new Office was created at the
election Of officers, that of Publicity
chairman, and Mrs. Samuel H. Die
mer was named to serve in this capac-
ity.
Much praise was accorded Miss
Eleanor Blanche Barns, the retiring
chairman, for her splendid conduct
of the department during her term of
office. Miss Barns had been untiring
in her efforts to provide good music
for not only the department programs
but also for the regular meetings OF
the club, and in addition TO this was
instrumental in giving the music low

for the period under which this pro-
lection can be guaranteed by the
executive under the powers granted
by the Lever act, but it has been our
effort to go into the underlying causes
for high costs and to offer some
remedy therefore-this, in. order that
in the future, when the government
relaxes its control over prices, there
may be a continuing force at work in
the public interest.
We believe 1T is obvious that unless
some changes can be made toward the
end of reducing costs in coal produc-
ton and distribution, no act of Con.
gress, no executive order nor any
regulation by constituted authority
can in the end provide against the
continuing high costs.
1t is for this reason that we believe
that this authority should be placed
upon the proper basis for more con.
tfnuous and thus more economical
production and distribution with the
result that the cost Of coal to the
people will be reduced.
Differ on Hours Of Work.
The principal point Of difference
between the majority and minority
reports was on the matter of hours
OF work, Commissioners Robinson
and Peale recommended retention OF
the present eight-hour day, but Com
missioner White agreed to such
hours only until April 1, 1921. After
that date Mr.. White held, the maxi
mum hours for miners would not ex-
coed eight hours under ground a day,
nor more than six days a week. The
miners demanded six-hour day and
q five-day week.
The representative Of the miners
also held out for adjustment of dir
ferentials in certain states, notably
Pennsylvania, Indiana and Illinois,
declaring the question TO be one OF
the basic causes of unrest.
An allowance of Q cents ton for
the handling OF soapstone was rec
commended by Mr.. White and he also
refused to accept the majority view
that car pushing was a natural con-
dition in tine industry.
In submitting his report, Mr.. White
said he was guided in preparing his
recommendations by single man
date, which was that healthy opera
ton of the industry in the service OF
the public is the end sought"
