DAUGHTERS FACE
CLEARS MIND OF
AMNES|A VICTIM

New York, March ga mothers
fearful recognition of her nine year
old daughter today revealed to Bel
lcvue Hospital authorities the idon-
tify of Mrs. John Il. Kirgah. talented
musician and linguist, who was
stricken with amnesia last night as
she emerged from Broadway thea
tire and faced the glare Of the Great
White Way.
The woman wandered into Roose-
welt Hospital about midnight and
asked the doctors to help her find
out who she was and where she
lived. She could remember every
thing but her name and address. she
said. Her case was diagnosed as
amnosia and she was taken to
Bellevue for observation.
While her husband, BROOKLYN
contractor and her daughter Betty,
were searching franticalIy for her,
Mrs. kirgan played the piano at Bel
levue to prove she was an artist and
composer. Then she conversed with
the doctors in English, French, Ger
man and Dutch, to verify her claims
TO mastery of those languages. Her
son had sung her own version of
Ave Maria" at st. Patrick's cathc-
dral last October Is, she said. but
she could not recall his name.
Whenever she tried to pierce the
veil which clouded her own identity
Mrs. kirsan would cover her eyes
and Shrek from the pains which. she
said. seemed to pierce her head.
Remembering that his wife had been
treated at Bellevue for amnesia %
years ago, krgan and his daughter
went there today to look for her.
Not a flicker OF recognition crossed
the woman's face when her husband
walked into the room. But when
she saw her daughter, tears filled her
eyes and she cried:
That's Betty. And now l remem-
Der. I am Angelina Kirgan."

For Refusal to Enter

Agreed There Is No Chance
Preventing Coal Strike
Scheduled for April MAT
ter Considered at Cabinet
SeSSiOn-GOv't. Not to Inter-
fere at Inception

Washington, March o4.-Theie is
no likelihood that suspension of
operations in both the bituminous
and anthracite coal fields on April
l, can be prevented. it was said to-
day at the White House. The gov
eminent was declared to have lex
Eausted its resources in the way of
suggesting conference" between
| operators and miners that might
| forcstall the strike.
Though the situation will he
scrutinzed as it develops, the gov
eminent has no plan for taking ac-
ton before April j, it was added
! and what will be done after April |
will be determined by the effects Of
| the strike itself.
From an administration viewpoint,
| it was added by a high official who
| discussed the matter following its
| consideration at tOday's cabinet SEES
| sion, it was considered fair TO say
, that while the bituminous Goa mine
| operators have been the principal
obstacle to the assembling of con-
| ference between the miners and their
employers which might have dust
ed the strike in advance the similar
proposals looking to conference
which might alleviate the difficulties
were revived by the miners last
| October, and later when the gov
| eminent again advanced them.
This. however. the administrator
does not consider as constituting q
| operators. particularly those in the
central competitive field. refusing
- enter upon negotiations now.
| At the same time the government
! is disposed to recognize. according to
the official viewpoint explained today.
that there is n very difficult economic
| problem to he work ed out in the coal
industry. There is n developed coal
mine capacity far in excess OF the
! country's needs, it was pointed ont,
especially since high prices. high
wages and high freight rates have
practically wiped out the export
| trade in coal Tho operators in the
central competitive field are faced
with the necessity Of maintaining
| their properties in production against,
! increasingly severe competition. This
| condition in the industry makes il
imperative that far reaching adjust
mcnts in wages be made. In CON
sequence the government is not I'M
derstood to be contemplation: inter-

uation makes it Imperative.
