COAL STRIKE

Walsh CriticiZes Hoover Agree.
ments; Secretary Defends Plan
to Restrain Prices.

Washington, June 9. - \ state
ment from Secretary Hoover de
cIaring the essential thing about
coal prices is that the runaway
market must be stopped" was the
latest development today in con
nection with agitation in the sen
ate over the strike situation, and
the plan adopted by the secretary
for holding prices at fair level
during the tie-up of the industry.
Issued after the assertion by
Senator Walsh, Democrat. Massa-
chusetts, on the senate floor yes
terday that the public patience was
exhausted by coal operators taking
advantages of agreements with Mc.
Hoover to boost their prices to re
taiIers, the secretary's statement
declared that some of the sena-
tors have been misinformed by mis-
leading statements from a small
group of retailers who object siren
uously to any attempt to restrain
prices"
The fact is, Mr.. Hoover contend
ed. that prices have receded from
the level reached on May Is, and
the public has been protected from
repetition of 1920 conditions.

Copyright, 1922, by The Argus.)
Augusta, Maine, June 9.-Senator
Frederick Hale, golf playing part
ner of President Harding, is being
opposed for the Republican nomin-
alton on the ground that he is a
bachelor and that married man
is better equipped for the solemn
and sober duties of a national leg
islator at Washington.
This issue has been injected into
the campaign by State Senator
Hoard Davies of Yarmouth, who is
opposing Mr.. Hale at the primaries
to be decided June 10. Mr.. Davies
is being nobly assisted by his wife
and the campaign is of peculiar in
terest in Maine because not only
Senator Hale bu. also PerciVal P.
Baxter, governor of the state, is
unmarried, and if the Davies argu-
ments bear fruit, more than one OF
the states leading office holders
would have to suffer the conse-
quences.
Bachelors Cite PenroSe.
In it's nationwide aspect, the
campaign of the married man
against the bachelor in politics is
a revolutionary move. The friends
of the bachelor are pointing to the
fact that Boies Penrose, late leader
in the senate, was a confirmed
bachelor. Representative Burton
of Ohio, former senator, is another
shining example of the success of
the bachelor in the upper chamber
of congress. The bachelor defend
ers point to the fact that Grover
Cleveland was elected to the presi-
dency as a bachelor, but later took
to himself a wife in the White
House.
The bachelor versus married men
also has acute angles of being par
ticularly significant this time be-
cause of the fact that the women
of the country are enjoying full suf-
frage both in the elections and the
primaries.
Married Man Wiser?
Mr.. Davies has made a strong
play for the feminine vote in his
race against Senator Hale, one OF
his campaign methods having been
the issuance of a letter by his wife
in which she dwells upon the fac,
that Davies is a family man and
that by virtue of his understanding
of family problems he is better en-
titled to the support of the voters
than a man who has avoided these
responsibilities. Davies himself is

Voters Must Pick Bachelor

of Maine in which he stresses that
aspect of the situation and draws a
clear cut issue between the relative
qualifications of Senator Hale as
a bachelor and himself as bene-

Hands that have been filled with
glass beads and golden toys" Mr.
Davies declared, cannot grasp the
things in life which are lasting and
abiding; eyes accustomed to bright
lights can see nothing but darkness

Having thus cast an indirect as
persion upon bachelorhood, Candi-
date Davies, for fear someone
would mistake his inferences, goes
on to assert:
The family is the unit of society
No man properly takes his place
therein until he has entered into

Bomb or ~Dudr
Needless to say the new issue IN
the senatorial campaign has caus-
ed a great deal of excitement in
Maine. Hitherto the state has not
considered itself handicapped by
having its representation in the
hands of a bachelor senator and a
bachelor governor. Whether or not
Mr.. Davies bomb will start a new
trend of thought not only in this
state but in the country at large
or will prove to be a harmless
dud remains to be seen. The pri-
maries of Monday will tell at least
part of the story
In the meantime all Maine is
flooded with letters and plastered
with placards urging the superior
qualifications of a married man as
a senatorial candidate and fem

STATE CLOSES
CASE IN TRIAL
OF 20 GREEKS
Defense Springs Sur
prise in Girl
Witness.

Quincy, Ill, June 9.-With the
closing of the states case in the
trial of the % Greeks charged with
the murder of Sheriff Lashbrook
of Schuyler county, on April rs,
Thursday evening the defense op-
ened with a witness this morning
that proved a surprise to the prose-
cution.
Rose Ideus, who lives a short
distance from the scene of the
tragedy in Frederick, declared she
heard a volley of shots, and i'm
mediately after heard Frank Utter,
one of the men killed, exclaim:
Get out of here; get out of
here; you; I'm here to protect
these fellows" Then came an
other volley. The prosecution was
astonished and wanted to know
why she had not informed the
states attorney of Schuyler cour-
ty of the incident, and she replied
that she had never been asked. She
denied she was being paid to tes-
tfy, but said she had been paid
$40 to pay her expenses while here
and expected the state to pay her
transportation.
Shots From Three Points.
A. Klabanos, foreman of the
Greek laborers, said three of his
men were missing. He said ne had
been told of the ill-feeling against
the Greeks, and that it was be-
cause 60 Americans employed al
Frederick at the same time had
been laid off. He said there were
others than Greeks on the plat
form and that shots came from
three points of the depot, after
which a crowd of men made their
escape by running through the
water which was to the west of the
depot

NOW THEY CHARGE
HONEY BEES WITH
RUNNING STILLS

Astoria, Ore, June 9.-Bee boot
leggers that manufacture alcohol
favored with honey, are the latest
violators of the Volstead act in
Clapsop county. according to
county agricultural agent Nc
Mindes.
He says that on account of the
large number Of stills which have
been operated in the county, guam
titles of fermented mash have been
dumped in isolated spots. The bees,
in their search for material for
honey-making, have discovered
these mash piles and as a result
the contents of some of the hives
are highly favored.

RAIL BOARD NOT
TO CUT PAY OF
TELEGRAPHERS
Varied Conditions Re.
quire Weeks of
Study.

Chicago, June 9.-Railway teIeg-
raphers will not be included in the
third wage reduction of the rail-
road labor board, according to ru-
mors today of the new contem-
plated slash from railroad pay
rolls.
The telegraphers number ap-
proximately 81 900. So many local
conditions on various lines have
to be considered that deliberation
of an order affecting the telegra-
piers would necessarily consume
weeks, it was said.
New wage cuts to follow the
$110, 100000 already Topped off tht
pay checks of 100000 maintenance
of way employees, and 400, 900 shoI
men, will affect $4,000 railroad
clerks, signal men, stationary fire
men, oilers and marine depart
ment employees, according to re
ports.
Clerks Cut Smaller.
Chief among the groups are 220,
900 clerks. $4,000 men in the sig
nal department and $4,000 freigh
handlers and trucksters.
Although board members made
no direct statement regarding tht
next cut, rumors were persisten
! in predicting a smaller reduction
| for the clerical forces than those
affecting the shopmen. The reason
| for this was said to lie in the fac
that the clerks did not receive in
| creases proportionately as great a!
