Short Ballot Best
Says Justice Clarke

Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 1.-THE short
ballot, because Intelligent voting has
become utterly impossible" was fa-
vored by former United States Supreme
Court Justice John II. Clarke of
Youngstown, in an address before the
Columbus Bar association Wednesday
night.
The principle of the League of Ma
tions, to promote which the justice was
said to have resigned his seat on the
supreme court bench. was only casually
alluded to by him. He said he expect
ed at some future date to talk exclu-
sively on that.
In his defense of the short ballot,
Justice Clarke said it is folly to de-
nounce party organizations or party
bosses because the people had deyel-
oped a system which it was not possible
to operate without having these to tell
the voters when vacancies occur and
when they must be filled.

plea for home service work and against
any curtailment of the peace-time pro-
gram of the American Red Cross, was
made Wednesday night by Mrs. August
Belmont of New York. an Influential
worker in the organization and a
member of it's central committee, in
an address before the annual conven-
ton. The session, which was the last
formal one of the meeting here, was
presided over by Chief Justice Taft of
the United States supreme court.
Mrs. Belmont's statements on pro-
gram policy met with applause and
were interpreted as opposing the posi-
ton in that regard, taken Tuesday by
Miss Mabel Boardman, secretary, and
also a central committee member, IN
an address before the convention. The
latter declared that the Red Cross
might be attacked by charitable
agencies if the local relief service now
being carried on, especially in public
health work, were not dropped in
favor of preparation for great emerg-
encies or catastrophies. Miss Board

PLAN OFFERED
To LET COURTS
JUDGE STRIKES
Judicial Settlement of
Disputes Suggested
To Mine Owners.

Cleveland, Ohio, Oct. 11.-(By The
Associated Press. .)-Warning that an
other coal strike is inevitable April L,
1923, unless certain conditions are re-
moved, a sharp divergence of opinion
between union and non-union operat-
ors over labor policies, and manu-
facturer telling the mining industry
ito organize it's household for self
examination, sef-expression and self
government" marked the third days
session of the American mining con-
gress, which was devoted to an in
tensive study of the problems con-
fronting the bituminous coal industry.
A resolution was introduced asking
the congress to declare as its prin-
ciples: .x
ing the public interests which may not
be settled by mutual agreement, shall
be determined by judicial process.
'sTbat any act. in combination with
others, which would be unlawful if
done by an individual, shall be un-
lawful on the part of all those who
take part collectively and individually,
all of whom shall be liable to damages
to the party injured thereby.
Would Tighten Rules
THAT every agreement, order, de-
termination or conclusion by two or
more persons which, if carried out,
would be in restraint of trade, increase
the cost or restrict the production of
any article of commerce, to public in
jury, shall be declared unlawful and
that each and every person, organiza-
ton or combination guilty should be
properly penallzed.
1t also recommended that a commit
tee on industrial cooperation be Gre
ated to investigate plans to end in
dustrial strikes either by mediation or
arbitration and recommend to the
board of directors of the congress
such plans as its Investigations should
show to be advisable.
The resolution was presented by &.
e. Maurer, of Cleveland, Ohio, vice
president of the congress, coal
operator and long a member of COM
missions negotiating with the United
Mine Workers, and followed lengthy
address in which he predicted next
April would find the coal prices as
low as last April and the miners
union as firmly refusing to take any
reduction in wages without fight.
The resolution will be considered by

Hoover Sends Telegram
A telegram from Herbert Hoover,
secretary of commerce, was read, de-
failing some of the evils of the coal
industry and suggesting that general
debate of its problems will be most
advantageous" to the new coal COM
mission.
John A. Emery, of Washington,
counsel for the National Association of
Manufacturers, told the coal industry
to ''clean house" and said that "dvr-
ing the months of deliberately sus-
pended production, the spectator has
seen little evidence of continuing unity
in thought or action among the
ostensible managers of the industry,
while on the other hand, he has wit
messed a solidarity of policy, express
sion and action amongst the controll-
ing miners which has successfully
resisted not only economic argument
and official Intervention but every ap-
peal to impartial arbitration"

Solomon Problem
Involving Fortune
to Supreme Court

Washington, Oct. 11-One of Solo
mons problems was presented to the
supreme court Wednesday for solution
when it was asked to determine who
was the mother of Thomas Atkins, a
Creek Indian, to whom were patented
oil lands of great value in Oklahoma.
The court, in reaching its decision,
however, will not have the affections
of mother to aid it, for the child long
since died and the woman who, the
lower federal courts held, was the
mother, is also dead. The second wom
an in the case is alive but demented.
When the Dawes commission made
allotments to the Greek Indians, it
that tribe, and patent for 160 acres
of land was issued in his name. Years
later, with the development of oil
properties in Oklahoma, the land
awarded to Thomas Atkins, located in
the Gushing oil fields was purchased
by Charles Page from Minnie Atkins,
a Greek half blood Minnie claimed
title to the land as the mother of
Thomas who, she asserted, died while
a minor.
I Nancy Atkins, full blood, contested
the title on the ground that she and
not Minnie was the mother of Thomas.
The federal government came into the
case and asked that the patent to the
land be cancelled, contending that
Thomas was myth, never had existed
and that the land had been allotted
through fraud. To further complicate
the case, Henry Carter entered a claim
to the property, declaring that he was
the Thomas Atkins to whom it had
been allotted
The value of the property in oil al
ready recovered and that which still
remains was placed by counsel at $4,
10000 1t was acquired from Minnie
Atkins for a few hundred dollars. The
lower federal courts held that she was
the mother of Thomas.
