Clifton made his start, Mr.. Darnaby

Every one alks money depression
here. There is nice story going
around told by Arthur Brisbane. 1t is
about young man in Vienna who in
herited one million kronen during the
war on the death OF his father. He was
considered very rich at that time but
decided to be frugal and save his
money. He therefore put It out at in
terest and lived on the interest, leav-
ing the bulk of the fortune to his heirs.
The fortune of this very thrifty person
has shrunk to the value of SIS and his
annual income is so cents. Brisbane
says that 1t is true story. Now It
seems to me that you might call that
financial depression.

FAYETTE BOY STARTS UNCLE
IN PUREBRED HOG BUSINESS.

Lexington, Ky.--A good example of
how junior agricultural club work
gets adult farmers, as we'll as country
boys, interested in purebred livestock
and better methods OF doing things on
the farm is to be found in the expert
ences OF Clifton Ware, an 11-year old
Fayette county boy, who is one Of the
charter members Of q pig club organ

Agent W. r. Gabbert and the extension
division of the College of Agriculture.
The pig bought for 500 from Tow Pow
ers, Crittenden, by Clifton at the time
he became a member OF the club al
ready has returned him $40 and in ad-
dition he has the original gilt, four
boars and one SOW. His uncle, Lester
Danraby, with whom he lives, who is
now an enthusiastic and successful
purebred bog raised says, IF 1t hadn't
been for Clifton, never would have
thought OF being Poland China bred

The business OF raising purebred
pigs began in earnest for young Ware
this last spring when his pig farrowed

HARDING TO TAKE
DRASTIC STEPS
Immediate Resumption of Coal
Mining Operations Being Con-
Sidered by the President.
INDUSTRIES FACE SHORTAGE
Cabinet Member Says President VIII
Have New Offer to Make to the
BitumInous Miners-Fall
Has Hopes.

Washington, July 8.-With big in
dustries in many parts of the country
running headlOng into coal shortage
resulting from the mine strike, cabinet
officials predicted that President Hard
ing would lose no time upon his re-
turn to Washington to take drastic
steps leading to an immediate reSump-
ton of mining operations.
Reports TO the Department of Com
merce describe severe fuel shortages
in New England and the Northwest,
while from other sections come infOr-
nation which convinces those in touch
with the industrial situation that 1t
will be necessary for the federal gov
ernment to step into the breach
between the operators and miners with
more force than has characterized
previous efforts to end the strike.
To Make New Offer.
One member of the cabinet said
President Harding would have a new
offer to make to the bituminouS Sec
ton of the national coal conference
when it resumed its deliberations on
Monday. ...
1t was pointed out, however, in ad-
ministratiOn and congressional circles
that there are only two ways to end
the strike now open to the govern
ment. These are:
Arbitration or the taking over of the
mines.
While the miners continued informal
conversations with respect to the gov
ernment strike-ending efforts, the an
thracite operators and miners again
went into secret session to resume
their still unfruitful wage negotiations.
Secretary of the Interior Fall, who
is representing the President in the
hard coal negotiations, believes the
two groups in this controversy are not
as far apart as they imagine.
So Days Supply on Hand.
Secretary of Commerce Hoover an
nOunced that a survey of coal stocks
in the hands of public utilities, includ-
showed SO days supply on hand on
June 10.
Hoover said public utilities are OBJ
tanning regular supplies of coal from
nOn-uniOn mines. The survey, he said,
embraced the entire country and in
cluded all important public utilities.
Shipments of nOn-uniOn coal from
West Virginia have been practically
stopped by the strike of shOpmen on
the Norfolk and Western railroad in
that state, VIM. H. Johnston, president
of the International Association of
Machinists. declared.

ChicagO.-The first week of the
strike of railway shOpmen ended with
sporadic violence reported in widely
scattered sections of the country, troops
held in readiness to quell trouble
in Illinois and soldiers requested in
other states and union officials, rail-
road executives and the United States
Railroad Labor Board standing firm
in the position each assumed when
the walkOut was started July 1.
The attitude of the federated shop
crafts was indicated when B. NJ.
Jewell, head Of the railroad employees
department of the American Fedora
tiOn of Labor, issued a statement dis
claiming any further responsibility
for continuation Of the strike and
holding the railroads and the Labor
Board to blame for the length of time
the walkOut lasts.
"ThOse who complain because the
railway shop strike has not been set
tied Shculd understand that the men
have been forced out much against
their WILL" his statement said. The
strike has been in progress one week,
notwithstanding the fact that we, by
every means available to us, have
made it known that conference was
desired with any responsible person
authorized to negotiate a settlement
or that any proposal by any person
properly authorized would be cOnsid-
cred carefully, no movement has been
made by other parties to bring about
a settlement The striking employees
are not to be driven back. They are
asking only for justice and will not
submit willingly to less"
Ben w. Hooper, Chairman of the
labor board, issued an individual state
ment in which he asserted that "the
only feasible way" for the shop crafts
organization to end the strike was to
follow in the footsteps of the main
tenance of way organization, whose
officers appeared before the board and
agreed to postpone their strike pend
ing further negotiations.
