Washington, Jan. 11.-Passport n
strictions will not be waived by the
State Department to permit entrance to
the United States Of Daniel J. O'Cal-
laghan. Lord Mayor Of Cork, who on
his arrival at Newport News As stow
away anu without passport. was
temporarily admitted on parole by the
Labor Department.
The decision announced by Acting
Secretary Davis brought forth the ~
sertion BY Labor Department officials
that Jurisdiction still rested with the
secretary Of labor. This indicated q
continuation of the controversy be.
tween the two departments
Secretary Davis said that he con.
Cured In the opinion Of the solicitor
Of his department that there was no
reason to make an exception in the
case Of O'Callaghan as regards admis-
sion without passport.
He said he was communicating his
decision to Secretary Wilson and add
ed the lntimation that his department,
acting under the war time powers Civ
en- the President to regulate entry OF
aliens, might recommend that the Do
partment Of Justice be called upon to
dep0rt the Irish mayor.
Labor Department officials asserted
Secretary Wilson did not recognise
that the case Of O'Callashan had yet
come within Jurisdiction Of the State
Department innsmuch as he had not
formally referred 1t to Secretary Davis.
Secretary Wilson had not begun his
consideration Of the case and 1t was
said he would not take 1t under ad-
visement until 1t had come to him
through regular channels.
At the State Department 1t was said

O'Callaghan would permit the lord
mayor to accomplish his mission Of tes-
tifying before the committee Of 100 In
vestlgating the Irish question regard
less of whether he may he eventually
depOrted.
Labor Department officials declared
that should the secretary Of labor find
O'Callaghan inadmissable on immigra-
ton grounds. 1t would not be neceo-
sary for the secretary to refer the
waving OF passport restrictions to ths
State Department, should he find the
lord mayor admissible. however. b
would then be called on to decide
whether the exclusion Of O'Callaghan
for having entered without passport
was a question to be passed upon BY
the State Department.
While the State Department first
held that O'Callaghan's case has been
brought before the department by the
action Of an immigration inspector b
Norfolk requesting advice. Secretary
Davis later stated he had amended this
decision and would not take the CASE
under advlsement until 1t had been
brought to his attention formally By
the secretary Of labor.
When Secretary Davis learned Sec.
rotary Wilson was not disposed to con.
suit the State Department and that he
had paroled O'Callaghan. he again
amended his decision and asked for ~
opinion from the solicitor.

THREE DISTURBING FACTORS
Made Martial Law Necessary II
,-.- India
Associated Press

London, Sept. 14.-Three factors
in connection with the present dis
turbed conditions in India, factors
about which little Is known abroad
make it difficult to set forth the
causes which have led to the declar,
alton of martial alw by the British
in six districts Calicut, Walavanad
Ponnanni, Ernad. Wynaad and Kur-
ambranad-all within 500 miles OF
Madras.
These factors are, first, the Gandhi
or mon cooperation" movement, led
by a supposedly non resistant native
messiah; the operation Of the new
government for India Act which
went into effect in January, 1921, and
the administration Of the new Vice
roy, the Earl of Reading. Each OF
these elements have some bearing
directly or indirectly, upon the most
recent trouble which has resulted In
the killing Of Europeans and Hintus
by fanatical tribesmen.

HOWAT WILL 90 TO JAIL
Won't Give Another Bond Not to
Call Mine Strike


Pittsburg, Sept. 1O.-The general
impression among the miners union
officials here is that Alexander
Howat will not change his mind re-
garding the "peace bond" of $4,000
when the new date for expiration OF
his appeal-September 80 arrives.
The date was set ahead twenty
two days by the district court re-
Gently, the motion on behalf OF
Howat being unopposed by the pro-
secution. Howat had announced
that he intended to go to jail on
September 8 rather than give the
bond guaranteeing that he would
not call a strike pending appeal to
the supreme court. If he maintains
this attitude, the new date for the
miners chiefs going to jail would
be September 80.

forest creatures where now there are
populous towns. He and his father,
Samuel Shell, gained fame more

MORE TRUTH THAN POETRY

Honor moves in silk or rags
With equal grace and power,
And he who is to Honor wed
Doth win a rare rich dover
His circumstance may humble be
AS viewed through dollar signs,
But richer far and happier he
Than one whose ear inclines.
For idle Wealth and mocking Fame
Who bid him Honor slay,
And follow them In revelry
For one bright-gilded day.
Their gold is wash, their pleasure
thorns,
Their end, pit of shame
Wherein must toll the penitent
For Honor's gold again.

COAL SHORTAGE LOOMS
Unless Kansas Miners Work State
Will Suffer

Topeka, Sept. 13.-The Kansas
coal mines are nearly all shut down
and unless the coal operators and
miners change their ways there will
be an acute coal shortage this win
ter. This is the view Of James Sher-
wood, state mine inspector, who came
to Topeka yesterday for conference
with the industrial court and other
state officials. All the mines have a
big surplus Of slack coal on their
hands, Mr.. Sherwood said, but there
are no bidders for this coal and un-
less it can be moved the mines can
not operate.
The closing down Of industrial
plants has shut off the demand for
slack coal. The low price Of oil has
caused many plants to change from
coal to oil for fuel. Last February
Sherwood said he urged the mine op-
orators and miners to install ma
chimes and undercut the coal so that
they would increase the lump pro-
duction, but they scorned the sugges-
tion.
