MINERS PROPOSE
STRIKE in APRIL
URGE THREAT OF WALKOUT BE
USED TO FIGHT WAGE
REDUCTION

Indianapolis, Iud.-Threat of a ma
tion-wide coal strike April 1 Of both
bituminous and anthracite union min
ers was proposed to the special con-
vention OF the United Mine Workers
of America by the unions Scale Com
mittee, as the weapon to preserve bas-
ic wages for soft coal miners and win
increases for the anthracite diggers.
AS soon as the report was present
ed the convention adjourned by an
almost unanimous vote, without any
action or debate on the scale propos-
al. Likewise the threatened fight in
behalf of Alexander Howat, the
Kansas leader who was expelled from
the union, failed to come before the
1000 delegates, but it was said it
might develop later.
While no debate developed in the
convention over the Scale Committee
report, which included a small set of
demands and a policy for action by
the convention, the delegates held in
formal conferences throughout the day,
debating various proposals. Appar-
emily the majority view conceded with
that Of the union officials. who are
said authoritatively to have sought by
the report to win public opinion to
the miners and also to force the coal
operators into joint conference with
the union.
In brief, the committee demands in
cluded the following: Refusal to ac-
cept any wage reduction in soft coal
fields, the fight being to preserve pres
ent basic scales without any general
increase: adjustment Of inadequate
differentials" within and between dis
tricts, entailing wage advances for
some miners; increase of 20 per cent
in wages for anthracite tonnage work
ers, and 81 day for day laborers:
abolition Of the automatic penalty
claues for filming miners or operators
violating working agreement; limita- ]
tion Of the eight.hour day to the time
of entry and exit from the mines;
pay and half for overtime; double
pay for Sunday and holiday work, and
weekly instead Of bi-weekly or month
IL pay.
AS an addendum TO the demands

policy that the coal operators must

predicted.
A formidable bloc of representa-

said, is preparing to wage a determ-

$4,000 men, while others who favor
reduction have indicated they will be-
satisfied if the maximum is fixed at
100000. Other factions among the
House membership are said to favor
125,000 maximum or to oppose any
reduction in the present size, which
under limitation of pay for enlisted
men approximates 10000.

for which THE NEW YORK HERALD has
long worked was going to be made in
the method OF getting out premium lists
Heretofore. because OF the number Of
pages taken UP with. particulars OF spe-
cials offered by various speciality clubs
the premium lists have cost lot OF
money and have been too bulky to send
through the mails at letter rates.
THE HERALD nearly year ago went
into details to show how much money
was spent needlessly in getting these
premium lists TO the. exhibitors. | sug-
gested then that lfht of the clubs Of
fering specials could be given In the
premium list and the clubs could supply
the data on the requirements of entry

would take some OF the burden off the

great a load themselves.

Carpenter and Battling Sikh
to Box in Paris Sept. 10
Arena to Seat 65, 900 Persons
Is Being Built.

PARIS, Aug. IL (Associated Press) -
The fight between Georges Carpenter,
European heavyweight boxing champion.
and ''Battling'' Sikh, the Senegalese as
pirant for heavyweight honors, cheduled
for September 10, may leave unsettled
the much discussed question OF Car
pentiers ability as a fighter. but all
lady there Is assurance that II will
'onfirm his own keen h~sness sense
and that OF his manage. Francois Des-
camps.
A huge permanent arena. seating 65.-
600 spectators, will be built for this
event. Carpenter and Descamps each
hold 100000 francs OF stock In this
enterprise. Together they hold 40 pvr
cent. OF all the stock, and Descamps is
one of the directors.
Carpenter has been guaranteed 30O,-
600 francs as his share OF the purse,
in addition to 20 per cent. OF the gate
receipts which he will receive by virtue
Of being a shareholder.
The arena will be used not only for
BOXING bouts. but for bicycle and foot
races 1t will be known as the Buff
falo" because the manager formerly
acted In the same capacity for the Buff
falo Bill circus on its French tours
years ago.
Georges Is still busy being filmed In
England, and has not begun training
for the bout. He does not expect to be
free before August 20.

AMERICA Is STRONG-
IN HIGH JUMPERS
Has Many Men Capable of
Again Winning Olympic
Championship.

America has won the running high
jump at every one of the six Olympic
Games held thus far, and judging from
the great array OF talent In competition
at the present time and the improvement
being shown by high jumpers all over
the country. Americas supremacy in this
particular event will not be questioned
for some time to come.
Never before within the recollection OF
the oldest athletic expert have there bees
SO many great high jumpers in competi-
tion at one time, True, we have had our
Sweeneys. Beesons, Horines, Larsons.
Richards. Porters and others. but when
they were soaring over heights between
feet inches and feet 6 inches they
were alone in the field. To-day we
find no fewer than a dozen jumpers Gil
doing feet inches or better, and many
of them clearing feet inches and
better within the last couple OF months.
This seems to be the year for high
jumpers. No one seems to be able to
account for this influx OF great high
jumpers. 1t cannot be claimed that they
have all hit the correct form OF hIgh
jumping anu tnat this Is responsible fOr
the great number of feet inch jump
ers this season. for the simple reason
that no two of these athletes use the
same style. They seem to have mas
tered a style all their own. but the STYLES
used are In grea: variance.
or course there are manv more but
mention Is made here OF a few of the
jumpers who have cleared the hat at 8
feet . inches or better within the last
nine months Lc Roy Brown, Dart
mouth. feet 5-16 inches: John Mur-
ply, Notre Dame University, feet 5
inches; William Platten. University of
Wisconsin. feet AZ inches; Harold
Osborn. University OF Illinois, feet .
inches: ID. Y. Alberts. Chicago a. y, 9
feet inches: II. p. Muller, University
OF California, feet 3ia inches; Dick
Landon, New York A. c., 6 feet
inches o. ID. Corey. Los Angeles, 4. c.,
6 feet 3 inches.
Practically all OF these great jumpers
will compete In the National Amateur
Athletic Union championships at Wee
quahic Park. Newark next month. and
Eastern athletic fans viii be treated to
some OF the greatest high jumping ever
seen In this country.
