is at work near here under 80 to 100
feet of water. and salt water. too. He
is helping sink 16-foot circular shaft
in new salt mine on the outskirts of

So bountiful is the Arkansas river
underflow. 1t was impossible to use
pumps in sinking the shaft. rhe diver
operates nigh pressure water Jets which
eat out the shale at the bottom OF the
shaft, coming to the surface OF the
water-filled hole every two hours The
operation will be continued until the
shaft is down about $50 feet. Then ii
will be possible to case off the water
with concrete tube. The balance of
the $40 foot shaft. to the salt bed, will
be lined with timber like the ordinary
mine shaft.

LABOR PARTY NAMES
A WOMAN CANDIDATE

LONDON. - That the political party
which above all parties stands for the
hard-fisted sons of toll should put for
ward as one of its parliamentary can
didates member Of the social elect
and woman at that, may be regarded
as one of the significant signs Of the
times. 1t is not because of any dearth
of good parliamentary material among
It's own ranks and file that the Labor
Party has adopted Miss Edith Picton-
Turbervill as its candidate for North
Islington at the next general election.
Miss Picton-Turbervill is the daughter
of Colonel Picton-Turbervill OF Even
ny Priory, Glamorganshire. Among
the many claims of long descent, there
are few among the British aristorcracy
who can trace their lineage so far back
as can Miss Picton.Turbervil and find
such notable beginning Of It. One
of her ancestors was Sir Richard Tur-
bervill. one of the 12 knights of vii.
liam the Conqueror who settled in
Wales soon after the conquest.

Roads Will Handle
Current Coal Need
Is Hoover'S Hope

WASHINGTON Belief that the
railroads will handle the current coal
needs of the country this week was ex-
pressed today by Secretary Hoover who
said the test would come within the
next two weeks.
In the past. Mr.. Hoover said. the best
continuous performance Of the roads
in handling coal both bituminous and
anthracite, was approximately lS,000,-
600 tons n week, while for the next
six weeks they might be called upon to
move 100000 tons a weewk. lie said
that total, however, could be cut down
by not attempting to build up stocks
and combining distribution to current
needs alone.
