resented in the Trades Union Con-
gress here, through their dele
gates approved the Washington
disarmament conference and de-
clared against any further develop
ment of Great Britain's extensive
armament program at least until
after the conference. in resolutions
adopted today. 1t was urged also
that labor be represented as such
In the meeting.
]. H. Thomas, head of the rail-
waymen's union and labor member
of Parliament. pleaded for suspen-
sion of armament SO that Great
Britain might enter the conference
with clean hands" He pointed
out that the army, navy and air
force are costing two and one-half
times as. much now as they cost in
1914.
Must we admit in Washington
he demanded, that within two
years after the signing of the
treaty of Versailles. we have laid
the keels for battleships costing
between 10000, 900 and 10000, 900
pounds? Other nations will be en-
titled to ask whom we are building
against"
Enemies of Great Britain and
America are propagating in the
minds of both peoples the idea that
an Anglo-Japanese alliance might
line up Great Britain against
America. Thomas declared.
But" he insisted mo sane man

PREDICTS SUNSHINE

Chemist Sees World Industry

Power.

NEW YORK, N. Y. Sept. s.-Dr.
Arthur D. Little, addressing nearly
1000 American and Canadian chem
ical experts in convention at Co
lumbia University today made the
prediction that practical utilization
of the suns rays to provide light,
heat and power for industries will
be the next compelling achievement
Of science. He prophesied that
chemistry will help to bring about
conversion of solar rays to supplant
the dwindling, supplies of coal. Pc

daily receives a solar energy equi-
valen ito that of 5000. .00O,o 900 tons
of COAL" he said. The world awaits
the genius who will convert radiant
energy into electric current"
DR.. Little rejected the theory
that wind. waves and tides are po-
tential substitutes as sources of
energy. He said that the sun alone
Is worthy of serious scientific Of
fort. He went on:
1T has been estimated that, as
suming six hours to be an effective
day, a surface of only 10.0o0. 900
square ki1ometers receives in q
year quantity of heat correspond
fng to that produced by burning
1850, ,o00.0 900 tons of coal. That is
considerably more than double the
entire worlds production.
, "Of extraordinary interest are
the accommodating evidences of in
conceivably great amounts of kin
etic energy possessed not, only by
radium. but by ordinary matter as
the constitutional energy of its
atoms Some atoms are surcharged
with energy.
We now recognize that con-
cealed in matters of every kind are
stores Of energy Immediately
greater than those derived from
chemical reactions or concerned
with any Of the forces with which
we COMMODITY deal. We recognize
them as Of an altogether higher or
der Of Intensity and magnitude

ing coal or liberated from the, most
powerful explosive"

ELIzABETHTowNsnI.. Sept. s.
Clashes between striking miners.
massed 500 strong near Big Creek
near here, and mine guards and de-
tectives were reported here late to-
day.
1t is reported the men are plan
ming a march on Elizabethtown and
Rosiclare. When today passed with
out the expected attempt OF the min
ers to enter both towns, 1t was felt
that chances of such a demonstra-
ton were lessened as the miners
got their strike rations today from
miners headquarters.
While all telephone connections
with the community around Bis
Creek have been cut and only meag-
er details have emanated from their
camp. II is believed the miners will
not attempt the march. No extra
precautions are being taken here
and the town Is quiet. .

Small. The delegation asked a mill
tary investigation.
Machine guns were mounted on
the main roads early today al
Rosiclare. to repel an expected ad-
vance OF several hundred union men
reported to be marching on the
town.
These guns commanded the high
way from Rosiclare to Elizabeth
town. five miles northeast. the coun-
ty seat Of Hardin County. A feel
ing of apprehension still hangs over
Rosiclare. Practically every man In
the town is armed and many of them
are doing guard duty on the roads,
Armed Men on Guard.
The guard reliefs are posted night
and morning. Guards are armed
with rifles. shotguns. revolvers and
weapons Of air descriptions. Even
the rifles used by the Rosiclare pos,
Of the American Legion for its fu-
neraIs have been pressed into serv-
ice.
Miners had two motives for an at
tack on Elizabethtown:
To free the five miners captured
yesterday and to replenish their
food supplies, reported to be depict
ed. The five men were captured
when sheriffs deputies stopped
three automobiles carrying fifteen
armed miners.
Town Marshal Howard declared
today he did not believe the miners
would actually launch their attack
but said they were preparing &c

Treasury Mellon.
This amount. coupled with $780,

BILLS Mellon told the Senate Finance
Committee yesterday.
The Finance Committee has under
consideration the tax bill passed
by the House.

The original estimates for the
next fiscal year. Mellon informed
the committee. were for s4.554, ,OO0.-

duce this amount to $4,000. 900, 900
in round numbers.
IF promised governmental econo-
mics are made effective. the SUM
mentioned will be sufficient toNmeet
the governments needs" said Mel
Ion. He added that he expected the
administration to carry out the
economies 1t had outlined.
Mellon made this recommenda-
tions:
Repeal of the excess profits tax
for this year. making 1t retroactive
to January l. 1921.
Repeal OF the capital stock tax
payable in 1929.
A limitation of IS per cent on the
personal income surtax. instead of
% per cent AZ provided by the
House.
Would Raise Corporation Tax.
In the place of these two taxes,
Secretary Mellon recommended an
additional corporation income tax
Of per cent. making the rate Is
per cent as of last January 1.
The conference with Secretary
Mellon marked the close Of the
hearings on the bill. The commit
tee will now begin its revision. and
will make an effort to have 1t in
shape for immediate presentation to
Congress when IL recon&nes.
Retention Of the transportation
tax. the tax on express companies
and pipe lines. and other levies laid
under title of the revenue law,
which the House bill repeals,' were
urged by Secretary Mellon. He
recommended. however, that these
taxes be returned at one-half the
present rate during the year 1922.
and finally repealed in 1923.
Urges surthx Reduction.
1t also was recommended by the
Secretary that the taxes. on cos
metics and proprietary medicines,
which are rescinded IN the House
bill. be retained. but with the pro-
vision that they be levied as a
manufacturers tax
Regarding his recommendation
for reduction in income surtaxes,
Secretary Mellon expressed the
opinion that the present rate of 32
per cent exceeded the collection
point" Greater revenues would be
derived. he said. by cutting the tax
TO 25 per cent.
