HIGHER DUTY MAY BE
LEVIED ON IMPORTED BOOKS

1t is with regret that the reading public hears
of the latest Washington proposal of imposing a
duty of twenty per cent of the presumed Amer
lean value on imported books, no matter in what
language printed and excluding only Bibles.
Such an action is likely to produce deplorable
results, particularly among educators, scientists
and Students public libraries and libraries in va
rious institutions of learning. Wealthy collectors
will not be deferred to any degree in their
ulation of books by such duty, but as frequently
their collections at some time or other go
to public libraries or other institutions, it
is not desirable that they be hindered at all. As
to the other groups, higher education is already
jeopardized at too many places by the inaccessi-
bility of materials.

of the Cleveland American league
baseball club valued at 100000 was
left to his widow, Edith Dunn, In a

Dunn asked that Speakers judgment
and decision be accepted as final in

it was Dunn's desire that she consult
with Speaker, Barnard and Walter
McNicholas and abe guided by their
advice"
Mrs. Dunn was made the sole exc
cu;iix and was not required to give
surety to the bond placed at twice
the value of the $7SO,OOO.

Maine Lumbermen
Seek Lower Freight

Portland, Me, June e2,-Speakcrs at
a meeting of the Maine Lumbermen's
association today intimated that the
associa ton may have to carry to the
interstate commerce commission its
fight for reduced freight rates on
round edged box lumber. Varying
opinions as to the prospect of obtain
ing the proposed relief through nego-
tiation with railroad officials were eX-
pressed.
The report, however. of the Maine
committee, which attended the confer
cnce held at Boston recently with the
New England Freight association, was
to the effect, that, while very little
had been accomplished, there seemed
a prospect of obtaining the desired
reduction.
II. Herbert Sturgis of this city.
president of the association thought
that eventually something would be
done. and called attention to the fact
that. if the railroad representatives
refused to take action. there was the
interstate commerce commission as a
last resort.

SURVIVORS, TALE

| Herr Ills, June 22-(By A. P.)
Half a dozen wounded mer some
of them lying on death beds. tonight
gave an Associated Press corre-
spondent the first actual eye illness
! accounts of ie mine --ht last night
and this morning which brought 1cz-
ems of casualties when 5000 armed
striking miners attacked the Lester
Strip Mine near l. which was be-
ng operated by imported rkers
and guards.
The substance of the state ITS by
the wounded. who were among ths
besicSed, was that not a mine worker
was injured during the fighting. but
| that the numerous killed were shot
down in cold blood after y had
surrendered themselves and their
arms. There was nothing from the
union miners to contradict these
| claims.
Several of the men imported to
work the mine absolvcd the strikers
from blame. saving that the ones re-
| sponsi,le were those who sent us
here under false promises / there
would be no trouble and that the
miners would not object"
Some Of the wounded interviewed
were in the hospital here. Others
were locate in their homes through
secret channels.
Joseph O'Rourke, Chicago, COM
missary clerk at the mine. gave the
most vivid account of the fight His
story was "clated as he tossed in
pain from half a dozen bullet holes
through his body.
II was sent down here by the
Bertrand Commissary comp: ny OF
Chicago" he said. 'T had no idea
what I was running into. l don't
much blame the miners for attack
ing us. for we ere unknowinglv be-
ing used = dupcs to keep them from
their jobs. We were given arms
when we arrived and a machine gun
was set up at one corner Of the mine
Guards were with us all OF the time
and most of theguards were tough
fellows sent by a Chicago detective
agency. I understand the miners
sent us warnings to leave the town
or we would be run out. We never
got them: perhaps the bosses did.
When we saw the miners approach
ing yesterday afternoon. we did not
know what to do The guards pre-
pared for fight. most of us workers
wanted to surrender.
Through the night the bullets
rained in on Us. We sought shelter
as we could. The miners climbed upon
the coal piles and earth entertainments
and we were unable to see them. The
guards kept firing. but most of us hid.
Then the miners blew up our pump
ing station. We had no water and
our food supplies were in a freight car
in the hands of the miners. About
sunrise we put Up the white flag. The
miners poured in and we surrendered
our arms.
