dianapolis.
INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 10.-EXplra-
ton of wage agreements of both anthra-
cite and bituminous miners at the same
time, March 81. 1922. gives added weight
to wage demands to be made at the bien-
NAL convention of the United Mine Work
ers of America which opens here Sept.
30 Ellis Searles. editor of the unions
official Journal. said here today.
This simultaneous conclusion of agree
ments puts the organized miners in the
best position in years to support each
other in their demands. Mr.. Searles said.
The miners will not permit any wage re
duction. according to John J.. Lewis, in
,ternational president.
II has been the custom of the anthra-
cite miners to frame their wage demands
and have them adopted by a tri-district
convention. comprising the three anthra-
cite districts, after which they We're re
ported to the unions national convention
for approval. This year, however, the
procedure is reversed. Anthracite dele
gates to the national convention will pre-
pare their demands for approval by the
national body and the tri-district conven-
ton for ratification will be held after
ward.
In this manner. it is pointed out, any
general policy with reference to wages
that may be adopted by the national con-
vention will govern the miners in their
negotiations in the anthracite region as
we'll as in the bituminous coal fields of the
country.
. Naturalization of mines and adoption
of the six hour day and fiverday week also
viii be before the convention. These
matters were favorably reported on at the
unions convention in Cleveland two
years ago. r-
{ Approximately 1,500 delegates will at
tend the convention, according to Mr..
Searles. Two years ago there were 2,044
: delegates. -
! The decrease is due to depression in coal
industry and desire on part of locals to
cut expense, Mr.. SearleS added. Local
unions chose delegates on a paid-up per
capita basis but two or more locals If
they desire may unite and send one rep
resentative, thereby saving the expense o.
additional delegates. Mr.. SearleS said
this is being done in a number of in
stances.

Scientists in Great Britain have

a study is being made of the effects of

FEAR EXTINCTION OF HOLLY
Botanists Say That Within Another
Generation 1t May Be as Rare as
the Mistletoe.

Christmas holly, that merriest and
most beloved of all growing bushes, is
threatened with extinction. according
to a warning sounded by lovers of
red Christmas. Once growing pro-
fusely in southern New Jersey and
Maryland, it has been swept from
those states by the ruthless cutters
for the city markets, and must now
be sought in the swamps of Virginia
and North Carolina, where already the
supply is growing less bountiful each
year. The Gulf states have been sim
fIarly shorn to provide holly for New
Orleans, ST. Louis and Chicago.
Within another generation. botan-
lists say, holly will be as rare as mistle-
toe, which used to grow in abundance
on the Atlantic seaboard as far north
as Raritan bay, but has now practi-
calIy ceased to exist as Christian dec
oration. When will the American peo-
pie learn that the bounty of their
fields and woodlands is not limitless?
