Candles on Birthday Cakes.

The custom Of placing candles on a
birthday cake-one for each year
comes from Germany. The Germans
placed thick one in the center, called
Lebenslichi, The light OF life. Only he
or she who declares his or her birth
day may put out the light Of life; it
is unlucky If done by any other member
of the family. The lights are symbols
pf life and its portions the years. For
persons advanced In years one candle
must do duty, as otherwise zoo many
would be required.

Prohibition Faye bySenatOr BrOu d.
Introduced an Ar $ nent
 For Beer Up to 5 re. Cent
 and Wine Up to 14 Per Cent

Washington, June 2S.-While prohibi- ton leaders in the senate prepared to- day to tighten the nations liquor laws through enactment of the Wilhs-C Camp bell bill prohibiting prescription of med ical beer, prohibition was flayed and be- rated by Senator Broussard, democrat, Louisiana.
 Senator Broussard attacked the eight eenth amendment as "an act of minor ity," declared the Volstead enforcement a great factor in the creation of discon- tent and unrest. and characterized the Willis-Campbell bill as merely the fore runner of the Volstead act, junior, (the proposed supplemental enforcement act) |, which will violate every principle upon which the government was founded"
 At the close of his speech, he intro duced an amendment to the enforcement act to permit the manufacture. produc- ton, use, sale and transportation for beverage purposes of beer, ale and por- ter up to five per cent. alcoholic content and wine up to IA per cent. alcohol in such states as so decide by referendum vote
 The Willis-Campbell bill was received from the house just prior to Senator Broussard's speech and referred to the Judiciary committee. subcommittee of which will meet tomorrow to take action on 1t. Senator Sterling. republican, of South Dakota. cha irman of the sub-com- mittee, predicted that the measure would be in the presidents hands before the end of the week.

DIFFICULTIES CAUSED BY
 ARMY APPROPRIATION BILL

Washington. June 2S.-Although Pres ldent Harding is expected to sign the army appropriation bill reducing the standing army to one hundred fifty thousand, he probably will call the atten- ton of congress to certain provisions of the measure which he is understood to consider will require modification at the next session.
 The measure, which has been referred by the White House to the war depart ment. was discussed at a conference late today of the president, Secretary Weeks, Speaker Gillett and Republican Leader Mondell of the house. Representative Greene of Vermont a republican member of the house military committee and Sem ator Borah, republican, Idaho. It is un- derstood that provision of the bill adopted at the suggestion of Senator Borah and affecting the reduction of per sonnel occupied most attention and that the president explained why he consid- cred that this provision might need mod ihcation later. Senator Borah was said also to have explained his position frank 1y.
 As it has come from conference the appropriation measure provides that the reduction to one hundred fifty thousand men must be accomplished by October l. War department officials say this will require the discharge of several thousand men by arbitrary means Under the Bo- rah provision the department is pro- hibited from exceeding the actual amount appropriated, a stipulation which Secre- tary Weeks is understood to feel might force the government in it's efforts to reduce the enlisted strength, to break its enlistment contracts with some of the men to be discharged.

De Valera Defers
 Definite Answer
While Seeking a Conference
 With Representatives of the
 Political Minority.

Dublin, June 2S (By the A. P.).- Eamonn De Valera, the Irish republican -eader, is not yet ready to give a definite tnswer to Premier Lloyd Georges letter inviting him to a conference for an Irish settlement He has briefly replied to the premier, however, expressing the earnest desire for a lasting peace, but deems unity of Ireland esential to that end.
 The Irish Bulletin, organ of the Dali Eiraenn, in a speial issue, publishes MT De Valera's reply to the British prime minister. It is as follows:
 T am consulting with such of the principal representatives of our nation as are available. We most earnestly desire to help in bringing about lasting peace between the peoples of these two islands, but see no avenue by which it can be reached if you deny Ireland es- sential unity.
 Before replying more fully to your letter, l am seeking a conference with certain representatives of the political minority in this country"
 MT De Valera has written to Sir James Craig, the Ulster premier, Earl Middleton, who in 1920 advocated one parliament for southern Ireland, with the six Ulster counties under the imperial parliament, Sir Maurice Dockreu, M. P. for the Rathmines division of Dublin county, who was returned as unionist supporter of the coalition government except as to it's Irish policy of home rule Sir Robert Henry Woods, member of parliament for Dublin university and for mer president of the Royal College ot Surgeons in Ireland, and Andrew Jame- son, asking them to meet him at the Mansion house.

BRITISH COAL STRIKE
 WILL END MONDAY

London, June 2S-(By The A. P.)- The prolonged stoppage in the coal in- dustry will end Monday by a settle ment reached today when the government agreed to renew it's offer of a subsidiary of f10,000,000 to avert the hardships of the next three months because of nec- essary wage reductions, thereby conced- ing the one condition required by the miners and mine-owners. By the terms of the new arrangement a new wage basis will come into effect for the next eighteen months, whereby the miners re- ceive 20 per cent. above pre-war scale of wages, with an additional share of profits on an agreed percentage basis which will be regulated by the creation of a national board of national board and district boards.
 The settlement is only slight modi- fcation of the terms the miners rejected by their last ballot, and covers the pe- riod up to September 30, 1922, but eith- CT side must give three months notice Of a desire to terminate the agreement, during which time the new wages will prevail.
 Announcing the settlement in the house of commons today, Premier Lloyd George justified the granting of the sub sidy on the ground that the coal ex- porting districts were so hard Init by the collapse of the export trade that, if economic conditions had full play there would be unsupportable reduction in wag- eS.
 The settlement, he said was a great and promising experiment no sucfh principles had ever before been applied on such a vast scale in the industry. He was hopeful that it. would inaugurate new relations between capital and labor, not only in coal but other industries, and he believed that if it was sincerely carried out with good will it would re- pay the nation for all the damage sui fered through the dispute.
 national board, with district boards, will be created representing equally the miners and mine-owners, to regulate the rather complex system of profit shar- ing, under which S3 per cent. of the proceeds, after the payment of stand ard charges, will go to the miners in the shape of wages, and the remaining II per cent. to theowners.
 The British coal industry will have been idle 94 days when the. miners re- sume Monday. While in point of dura- ton this closely approaches the record for a British mine stoppage in 1897, when the strike lasted sixteen weeks, its effect upon the nations industrial and economic life admittedly has been far more disasterous. Through the enforced closing of steel mills and the curtailment of rail services and other industries closely allied with or dependent upon mining the ranks of the unemployed have been enormously swelled and the re- sultant hardships have been increasingly felt by owners, investors, workers and all classes of the population.
 The present strike is probably regarded as the most injurious the country has ever suffered.

ALLIANCE
 SUBJECT OF CONFERENCE

London June 2S (By the A P).-The subject of the Anglo-Japanese alliance was taken up today by the imperial con- ference, Lord Curzon, secretary for for eign affairs, explaining in lucid manner all the aspects of the alliance. He show ed no tendency to influence the premiers of the overseas dominions in either direc- ton, but confined himself to giving the facts. political and otherwise, needful for a full appreciation of the position as 1t exists today.
 The foreign secretary was followed by A. J. Balfour. who approached the sub ject from the standpoint of his position as representative of the league of na- tions, and therefore laid stress upon the necessity of bringing the alliance into line with the league requirements rather than insisting upon any special British interest or emphasizing it's imperial as- pect.
 It is understood the British government has suggested to Japan a postponement of the date for renewal of the alliance from July to October, in order to permit fun discussion here and an opportunity to consult the United States, and that the Japanese government has agreed to this course.
