ers of America.

(Writtten for The United Press.)
Indianapolis, Ind, Sept. In
West Virginia, from the line of the
kanawha river northward, some
5000 miners are employed work
ing under joint agreements between
the coal operators and the United
Mine Workers of America. In this
section peace and harmony prevail
between employers and employees
with precisely the same relationship
as exists between the mine opera
tors of Ohio, Indiana or Illinois,
and their employees who are mem
bers of the United Mine Workers of
America in these states.
Dare Not Join Union.
In all of this great area the mine
guard or professional gunman is
unknown; no disorders occur and
community life in the mining camps
is peaceful. Contrast this condition
with the situation existing in the
unorganized territory and south and
east of the kanaWha river in the
counties of Logan, Mingo, Nc
DowelI and Mercer. In this section,
some 10000 miners are employed,
who dare not become members Of
the United Mine Workers of Amer
ica for fear of instant discharge by
the operators. They live in unin-
Corporated mining camps where
their domiciles and the land upon
which they arc located are owned
solely by the coal companies. In
most instances there are no public
and ingress and egress are over
land held by the coal corporations.
To police this territory, prevent
the miners from joining the union
and hold them in complete subjec-
ton, the coal operators maintain
what is practically a standing army
of mine guards. These guards are
furnished under contract by a de-
tective agency. This agency does
an interstate business, charging the
coal operators so much per day for
ex-gunmen furnished them and re-
ceiving a stipulated profit for each
one over and above the expenses Of
his maintenance.
"COintless Outrages.7
These guards are recruited from
all classes and are equipped with
rifles, revolvers or automatic p1s-
tolls. These professional gunner,
directed by the detective agency,
have during their years of employ
ment inflicted an almost countless
number Of physical assaults and
outrages upon individual mine
workers. The men employed in the
mines of these four counties are al
most 100 per cent American. They
are of a race of mountaineers who
have peopled this section since the
days of the first settlement OF the
country, and deep in their hearts is
the inborn love of liberty. Their
spirits rebel against the unwarrant-
ed restrictions upon their liberty

Washington, Sept President
Harding, speaking today at the
opening of the fall term of the army
war conege, declared that mo mat
ter where the best aspirations of
the world lead US, there never may
be time without the necessity for
armed forces
The president, in his brief ad-
dress, however, pledged two hun
dred officers in his audience that
during his administration they
would never be called to perform
service they could not enter into
with all their heart and soul as
Americans"
Referring to the situation in the
West Virginia coal fields, the pres
ident declared:
DeplOreS W. Va Situation.
1--WE ought not to have a conflict
like that which is going on in West
Virginia. II is due to lack of un-
derstanding."
Mr.. Harding said there were
two relative essentials to the civ
iIization to which we all aspire;
one is an understanding among men
at home and the other an under
standing between nations"
The president expressed the be
lief that the time was coming when
the burdens of armament could
be diminished.
Il wish with all my heart" he
added, that there will be less need
of armies and navies."
Too Many Theorists.
Declaring that through four
thousand years of pagan history
and two thousand years of Chris
tian civilization the world only
lately had come to a civilized state
of armed warfare, the president re-
iterated that he thought it per
fectly futile to think there never
may be armed conflicts
I'VE of America, without IN
boasting," he continued,
have come nearer to civilized war
fare than any nation
The president said: "The trouble
with the world today is that there
are too many theorists who know
of actualities-"

teal experience into play with the
ory will make a real contribution
to progress.

PATERNITY OF
BOY PROVED BY
SCIENCE, ART
Mother Had Denied
Husbands Claim, of
Fofherhood.

San Francisco. Calf, Sept. l.
Science, art and the law are one
in declaring Julius B. Sorine the
father of the third child of his
divorced wife. The mother had de-
clared the husband was not the
father of the child, whose custody
ne sought.
DR.. Albert Abrams made a series
of blood tests of father and son
which he declared provided posi-
tive proof that the child was Sor-
ines.
The mother maintained she
should know better than science
who was the father.
Sculptor Offers Proof.
Then art was called into the case
by Judge Thomas F. Graham.
Sculptor Hafg Patigian by sketches
worked out facial expression test
like that used in the famous Sings
by case in England. Patigian re-
ported to the court the child re-
sembled Sorine
Yesterday the law spoke through
Judge Graham:
Irrespective of these tests,
which arc very interesting and in
structive, the law determines the
question very clearly. The young
est child was born during the law
full wedlock of the parties, and
there is legal presumption that the
boy is their legitimate child
Although Mrs. Sorine lost her
contention that the child was not
Sorine's, the court ruled the child
should remain in her care. Sorine
was proved the father, but lost the
child. He had brought suit for its
custody.
