Uncommon Sense reathered Miracle;
BY JOHN BLAKE

A FTER hundreds. perhaps thousands
"A OF miles of travel the migratory
birds are back again.
They have come to the wood or parks
where they We're horn, and where, year
after year, they and their ancestors
have dwelt and raised their young.
How they found their way over hills
and forests, straight to the spot thcS
left last autumn, is something that our
wise scientists have never been able to
answer US.
WHY the oriole always builds his
w nest Of grass and bits of string, and
suspends it swinging from bough,
while the robin fashions his of mud
and grass and pumps it In a crotch of
tree is another matter which is he
yond our worldly wisdom.
So is bird song which gives the
same notes to each succeeding genera =
tiOn of each family of birds-whicI
teaches the little robin to sing as the
robins sang thousands of year. ago.
TNHERE are wise men who tell us
i that the world just grew, without
any directing hand, without any power
to fashion It,
But we who study this yearly miracle
of the birds cannot believe them.
We can accept as gospel al! hat the
evOlutiOnists teach MS. we tan under
stand how time has changed species. and
how animal life has risen from the
lowest to these glorious creatures that
sing a morning song for us.

indianapolis. May 25.-lBy A. P.)
A domestic calamity faces the Amcri-
can public as n result of the continued
suspension Of work in the. coal mining
industry of the country. John Is. Lewis.
president of the United Mine Workers
Of America. said in Il statement sent
out last night to officers and members
of the mine workers union. reviewing
the coal strike to date.
The industrial and commercial in
tcrests, who he said had deliberately
forced a shutdown in the mining in
dustry. were held by the miners chief
to be responsible for the situation.
"Thc full realization of the import
of the suspension has not vet dnwned
on the American public said Mr..
Lewis. 1.-The accumulated coal reserves
Of tho country are being rapidly
diminished and the much -hcralded nom
union production is totally inadequate
to care for the Nations needs. Prices
of coal ut the mine in the non-union
fields have increased more than 100 per
cent and will continue to ascend despite
the efforts of governmental agencies to
control the situation by voluntary
effort.
"A national coa1 famine is impending
and the coal consuming public will be
compelled to bear the burden Of further
price extortionS for the benefit of
operating interests who pose as public
benefactors.
Mr.. Lewis commended the striking
miners for presenting a solid front in
the conflict.

Some Uncertainties Cleared In

The stock market situation was in
fluenced during yesterdays trading by
various developments in the direction
Of clearing up the atmosphere that had
been clouded with indefinite statements
in regard to mergers. consultations
and dividend distributions for SO long
IL time. The announcement of, 10
per cent reduction in rates by the Inter-
state Commerce Commission gave a test
70 the trading position in the early
dealings, when the speculative element
generally insisted on using that incident
as disturbing influence in the mar
ket. but while some of the leading rail-
road stocks declined one point or more.
many other issues made substantial and
extensive gains during the remainder
Of the day.
The declaration of dividend on
big Four" stock, making the first
distribution since September. 1910. was
looked on with special interest in
financial and railroad circles and was
followed. by an advance of 21a points
in the price of the stock. to 60. a new
high for the year. 1t was believed in
some quarters this action will be fol-
lowed by steps for absorption of the
outtanding shares of big Four by the
New York Central system.
Chicago and Alton and Lake Erie
preferred were both bought on reports
about coming mergers, and there was
another violent advance in "Nlckcl
Plate" which rose 4H points, to 20.
making n gain of s points since Tues
day morning.

Demand for Steel Continues

"There are more indications that
the present rate of steel works opera
tions will need to be maintained beyond
the third quarter of the year. says
Iron Age. in its weekly review. Cur
rent buying is on Il greater scale than
had been expected in view of the large
contracts placed ut low prices Of March
and early April.
''Since some steel producers. notably
the Steel Corporation, have been able
to increase their operations with coal
strike still going on. the furry of pro-
tective buying Is diminishing. but the
demand keeps up and in some direc-
tions it is urgent. The Steel Corpora
tion with assumptions ut its Mingo ana
Farrell plants is on n IS per cent basis
this week. and there have been small
increases by several independent COM
panies.
Automobile plants are crowding for
bar deliveries, their stocks in some sizes
being down to n few days.
"Offcring of 1000 tons British pig iron
for sale in the Philadelphia market at
approximately American prices has
caused no uneasiness to domestic sellers.
