SPECIAL SESSION
OF THE SOLONS
MIR. Harding Is Expected to Call Both
Houses of Congress to Meet The
goth Day of This Month

Washington, Nov. 7.-(Associated
Press).-President Harding expects
to issue call Thursday or Friday for
a special session of Congress, conven-
ing Nov. goth, it was announced today
at the White House.
1t was said although the president
is not irrevocably committed to the
proposal for special session, which
has generally been expected by con-
gressional leaders, only an eleventh
hour change of mind would prevent
him from issuing the call.
The plan for special session after
the election has received the general
endorsement of Senate and House
leaders. Although the program for
the session has not been worked out
definitely it provides for consideration
of a merchant marine bill by the
House and the Dyer anti-lynching
measure by the Senate. The Dyer bill
has already been passed by the House.

MELON GROWERS
NET At LEtSBURG
Plans and Arrangements Made For
Perfecting Marketing AssOcia-
tiOn i'm Lake County

At a meeting of the organization
committee of the Florida Watermelon
Growers Association held in Leesburg
recently, the final plan was completed
and arrangements made for perfect
ing this organization at once. This
committee was appointed at a meet
ing of melon growers from three coun-
ties held last week, and a careful
study of the problem has been made.
The final plan adopted is similar to
that used by the Southwest Georgia
Watermelon Growers Association dur
ing the past two years.
The proposed organization will
standardize the production of this
crop in the state and will load all cars
under standard grade rules. Thin
min gand pruning will be required by
members in order to improve the
quality and every melon will carry the
brand of the association. The organi,
zation proposes to make arrange
ments for nationwide sales service
which will place Florida melons in
every market of the United States
and Canada. 1t is believed that by
a business organization of the grow
ers handling the marketing in a
proper manner, the usual slump in the
middle of the season can be prevented,
and satisfactory price level can be
maintained throughout the season. 1t
is believed the Florida melon can be
made as widely known as the Florida
orange and the industry become a
very important one to the growers of
the state.
The proposed melon growers asso-
citation will include all the producing
territory of Central Florida in the
Leesburg, Ocala and Trenton districts.
This will permit the marketing of the
entire crop in an orderly manner and
prevent one section being used against
another section to hammer down the
prices.
A general mass meeting of melon
growers of several counties will be
held at Leesburg on Nov. 9th at l p.
M, at which time the entire plan will
be explained to the growers and the
permanent organization set up. Ev-
cry grower is invited to be present
and take part in this movement.
"This proposition" said one of the
committee members, "is not a Lees
burg or Lake county affair, but a
movement in the interest of every
melon grower in the state, and we
wish to join hands with growers OF
all the other counties in making this
a success"

SIXTY DEATHS At
LEAST AT SPANGLER
May be Several More When Full
Result is Known of Explosion
At The Reilly Mine

Spangler, Pa, Nov. 7.-(By the AS
sociated Press).-The bodies of fifty
miners who lost their lives in the
Reilly mine explosion here yesterday
lay in temporary morgue at nine
o'clock this morning. Thirteen more
were in sight in the mine, rescue
workers said, and thirty-two injured
were in the hospital.
A summary of the situation at that
time was as follows: Men in the mine
at the time of the explosion, not more
than 112; bodies recovered, so; bodies
located in mine, 13; injured in the hos
rital, 50; total accounted for, 95.
There is still some uncertainty as
to the number who went to work yes
terday but it is pointed out that if
the total was 112, as some authori-
ties believed, the missing seventeen
miners probably would be found in
the eighth heading where water had
rison so rapidly exploration this
morning was impossible.

MINIMUM WAGE LAW
is UNCONSTITUTIONAL

Washington, Nov. 7-Declaring
that the modern tendency toward
indiscriminate legislative and judicial
jugglery" with fundamental questions
of free government, if persisted in,
would lead ultimately to social disor-
der and revolution" the District of
Columbia court of appeals holds un-
constitutional the minimum wage law
effective in the capital. In holding
the law invalid and thereby establish
ing what is regarded as likely to be
precedent of far-reaching import
ance, the court of appeals reversed
itself from a decision handed down
in June, 1921.

EIGHT HOURS GAP
IN POLL CLOSING TINE

Chicago, Nov. 7.-(By Associated
Press).-A space of eight hours COW
ers the gap between the earliest and
latest closing of polls in the United
States today. Certain rural districts
in the east close at 3 p. M, while it
is II p. M, eastern time, before the
last of the far western polls close.
Virginia and West Virginia, closing
their polls at sunset, will start count
ing the votes at Asa p. M, eastern
time, which will be only 1:54 p. m. on
the Pacific coast. The earliest closing
time in the country is for rural poll
ing places in New Hampshire at p.
m. eastern time.
Washington and Oregon, closing at
time, may know the result in some
eastern states while their own voters
are still casting their ballots.
Four states specify sunset for the
closing of the voting places. The sun
will set first on the Virginias. Eleven
minutes later, at sos p. M, it will GO
down on North Carolina, and at 5:36
in Florida.
North Dakota, bisected by the time
zone line, which runs just west of
Bismarck, the state capital, closes its
voting booths at different clock hours
but simultaneously in point of actual
time, 10 o'clock in the central time
zone and 9 o'clock in the mountain
time territory, both corresponding to
II p. m. eastern standard time.
