Courts Decision
FayOrs Publishers

Washington, April 10-In a deci-
sion in arbitration proceedings be-
tween the local typographical union
and the Washington Newspaper
Publishers Association, just an
nounced, Chief Justice Mccoy of the
District of Columbia Supreme court,
chairman of the arbitration board,
characterized re-setting as waste
and extended the time within which
publishers may reset matter from IA
days to 80. Justice Mccoy upheld
the contention of the publishers that
resetting of foreign advertising
should not be required because of the
insertion of local address of mer-
chant or agent.
The arbitrator rejected the request
of the printers for increased pay, ex-
cpet for work on Sunday afternoon
newspapers, and also rejected the
counter proposal of the publishers
for an increase in hours.

Enormous Sum
Yearly to Build Up
Devastated France

Paris, April 10. Reconstruction in
the devastated regions will bring the
expenditures of France up to at least
fourteen billion francs annually for
ten years. This is the calculation in
the report of the finance committee
of the Chamber of Deputies on bud
get expenses recoverable from Ger
many, which will be presented in the
chamber Tuesday by Deputy de Las
teyrie, the official reporter.
1t is estimated that the reconstruc-
ton still to be completed and having
a value of 26,O00,000 francs before the
war, will cost from $4,000, 900, 900 to
100000 100000. Taking the lowest
figure in the annual budget at $780,
100000 with 4,O00,o00,00 in pensions
and 2.0OO,0O0,000 interest in money al
ready spent it is declared impossible
for France to find this vast sum of
money and the report says:
"At any cost Germany must do it,"

London, April LOBBY the Asso-
ciated Press)-Today was day of
relaxation from the tension created
by the coal strike and the possibility
of general industrial tie-up, and
gave the cabinet ministers and labor
leaders an opportunity to get into
the country for a rest.
Opinion on the present aspect of
the crisis continues favorable. but
meantime all precautionary meas
ures and recruiting of volunteers are
proceeding actively and will not be
relaxed until the miners are back
at work. These preparations formed
a great attraction for Londoners
today who, apparently no longer
haunted by the fear of strikes by the
railwaymen and transport workers,
crowded the parks and rivers, en-
joying the brilliant sunshine. 1t
was striking contrast to Saturday,
when fears of untoward develop
ments kept the nervous suburban
population in its homes.
Two important views were appar-
ent today. The first was the conf
dent belief among the labor leaders
that now an unfettered conference is
assured, greater number of pump
ers will return to their duties, al
though under the terms of the
agreement they only are required to
abstain from molesting volunteer
workers. The second was that the
government, while firmly opposing a
subsidy lis willing for limited per-
iod to afford some temporary assist
ance to tide industry over the diff
cult stage. It also is believed that
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1921-04-11

the whole wage basis recently pro-
posed by the mine owners, which
| originated the dispute, will be dis
carded and a new basis formulated
for the miners consideration.
Herbert Smith, president, and
Frank Hodges, secretary of the Min
ers' Federation, addressed a formal
letter today to the various branches
of the organization urging all con-
cerned Loyalty to accept the recon-
mendation, which is described at mot
instruction that our members should
return to work, but that those locked
out should refrain from obstructing
any action to secure the safety of
the mines"
In speech at Rugby, ]. H. Thorn
, as, secretary of the National Union
: of Railwaymen, said the agreement
was not victory for any body, but
rather triumph for a common
cause"
There is a general belief among la
Dor men that something in the shape
of a national settlement will result
from the conference tomorrow, or at
least a standard minimum wage with
SoIle system Vi DoHuSeS LOT ulStfICts,
where exceptional conditions prevail
The governments anxiety not to
embitter the dispute is shown by the
emphasis laid on the fact that no
soldiers or sailors are employed in
actual pumping, but only in protect
i've duties. 1t is understood that
there will. be general resumption
of pumping in South Wales tomorrow
and that this will be only just in
time to prevent serious damage to
the mines. 1t is said that altogether
twenty-three pits are already flooded,
mostly small ones.
The position of the Triple Alliance
is that the strike NOTICES for Tuesday
! midnight are still operative and will
| not be withdrawn until the confer
ence is in actual session.

THE BIRTH OF A NATION
TO BE SHOWN HERE DEC. "a

The next attraction at the Pastime
Theatre will be D. w. Griffith's mighty
spectacle "The Birth of a Nation"
The engagement is December 24th
and IS for night and matinee.
1t is estimated that over twenty
million people have seen the produc-
tion since it was originally brought
out.
Mr.. Griffith was eight months max
ing this wonderful story. He employ
ed $4,000 people and 5000 horses and
the total cost of the work reached the
figure of half million dollars.
Inc story is one of romance and adj
venture linked to the most vital
periods Of American history. 1t re-
cords it's facts with the rapidity of
lightning and yet never departs from
the fundamentals of true drama. Love
and conflict are it's basic theme but a
myriad of details illumine the narra-
tive and lift it so far beyond anything
our stage has ever known that the
usual avenues of comparison do not
offer road to follow in this instance.
Linked with the drama is an operatic
score which carries rccurrent themes
with every vital scene and character
in the epic. This wonderful score
which is synchronizcd to the drama
is IN itself an incompatible work of
art.
That part of history dealing with
the rise and fall Of the slavery prob
lem is the vital spark upon which
Griffith has built his story. The con
f1lcts which this question caused are
reproduced in great battles and in all
trimming things which are part of
war.
The cast is one of the greatest ever
assembled. In the leading roles are
such stars and screen favoritcs as:
Henry B. Walthall, Mae Marsh, Lii
nan Glsh, Miriam Cooper, Mary Aid
en-, Josephine Croweli, Spotiswoodc
Aiken, Ralph Lewis, Joseph Hcna
berry, Raoul Walsh, Donald Crisp,
Howard Gaye, George Sicgman,
Walter Long and Elmer Clifton.
