CABINET IS
 FOR P0INCARE
PREMIER'S PLAN FOR IMMEDI- ATE CONVEYING OF PARLIA-
 MENT MEETS OPPOSITION.
MORATORIUM REFUSED
FRENCH MINISTRY IS SILENT ON STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN
 MORATORIUM.

RambOuillet, France-Sitting under the presidency of President Millerand the French cabinet at its session re- gently gave approval unanimously to the attitude taken by Premier POin- care at the recent conference of al- lied premiers in London and also dis cussed the question of a moratorium for Germany.
 On the matter of a moratorium it was decided to await the forthcoming decision of the separations commis- sion, but plans were perfected regard ing the measures to be adopted should the decision of the commission fail to agree with the French viewpoint.
 Another decision arrived at was that for the time being the govern ment need not call an extraordinary session of Parliament SD that the dep uties and senators might be acquaint- ed with the exact situation and the program of the government. Freedom of action was reserved, however, to consult with parliament in the event that the plans adopted should require legislative endorsement.
 NJ. Poincare's plan for an immediate converting of parliament developed op- position, of which President Millerand was the leader, and finally was de feated
 the specific mandate to execute plan which had been signed by all the mem- berS of the cabinet without the slight est deviation. It is known that when Poincare made some concessions to David Lloyd Georges counter proposal a telegram was dispatched to him from Rambouillet requesting the strict carrying out of the specific plan agreed upon.
 All the ministers were in a sober mood as they emerged from the large sitting room of the Rambouillet pal ace. M. Poincare responded to the cheering of the people who had assem- bled at the Rambouillet station.
 ''This is the best republican opinion I can get" he remarked.
 What retaliatory measures will be taken by France should Germany be declared in wilful default of her re- parations obligations is being kept close secret. It appears that the French ministers are of the opinion that moratorium will be refused Ger many, but that they have little hope the reDaratiOnS commission will de clare Germany in wilful default
 The Belgian vote on the separations commission is regarded as certain to be against a moratorium, or else the Belgian representative will abstain from voting on the proposal, which would be equivalent to a negative vote. But similar abstention by the Bel gian member on the French proposal to declare Germany in wilful default, would place France in the minority on that question.

PUBLIC DEBT REDUCED
ECONOMICS EFFECTED BY CARE FUL BUDGET PLAN AND REDUC-
 TONS AT EVERY POINT.

Portland, Ore. Problems facing America and the methods of the ad- ministration in meeting them, was the theme of an address by Vice President Coolidge at the Auditorium in Port land recently.
 The vice president was introduced by Ben w. Olcott, governor, who was presented to the audience by John K. Kollock, head of the Amherst Alumni Association of Portland, which SpOn- sored the appearance of MT. Coolidge at the meeting.
 National finances, said Vice Presi- dent Coolidge, were now the chief con cern of all the peoples of the earth. Prior to the great war, he said, nation al expenditures of the United States gave little cause for concern, but since that great conflict, involving as it did, the expenditure of billions, thoughts of all turned toward how this great debt could be reduced.
 The speaker pointed out that the five fiscal years from the entry of this country into the war to July of this year were marked by appropria- tions that exceeded 100000, 900, and at it's peak the public debt was S26, ,60O, 100000. However, this has been reduced to less than $13,0O0,OOO,- GOO, he said. An encouraging feature of the war debt, it was said, is the fact that the nation came out of the war owing nobody but its own people, with very large credits abroad.
 Vice President Coolidge called at tention to the economies effected by a careful budget plan and by reducing expenditures at every possible point. His remarks then progressed to taxa tion required to meet the cost of gov ernment He told of the abolition of the so-called nuisance taxes and the general reduction of all taxation, ex- cept a slight increase of the impost upon corporations.
 The speaker told of the progress that had been made in outlining tariff.

LOSS OF S1o,Ooo,O00
ALL THE MILITARY AND POLICE
 BARRACKS IN CORK BURNED.
FLAMES RACED IN BUSINESS SEC- TON AS NATIONALIST TROOPS
 CAPTURE CITY.

Dublin. - Conflagrations ragged in Cork recently. The firemen were powerless to put out all the fires. The business part of the city is in ruins. The damage is estimated at 2,000,000 pounds sterling.
 It is officially announced that na- tiOnal troops entered Cork and were given an enthusiastic reception. Seven national troops were killed, many were wounded and some of the troops are missing. It is reported that thirteen men were murdered by irregulars.
 The retreating irregulars burned six barracks and three bridges.
 The irregular casualties, according to the official announcement, were six dead and wounded.
 The national forces are in full pos session of the postoffices and the GUS toms house.
 Twenty irregulars entered the post office in Amiens street, says an off cial statement, and disarmed the sen try at the entrance and overpowered the inner guard of seven soldiers, one of whom was shot and wounded seri- ously. They rushed the instrument room and after scattering gasoline, set it on fire.
 Considerable damage was done to the floor and furniture The fire bri- pada arrived pronptIv opd mt ont +bo fire.
 Thus, adds, the statement, the main object of the irregulars- s-destruction of the instruments-was not accom- plished.
 One member of the raiding party was arrested.
 The crew of vessel arriving from Cork said the admiralty house and the British naval hospital at Queenstown were blazing when they left, as well as two other large buildings in which frequent explosions were heard.
 London.-All the military and police barracks in Cork were burned, accord ing to the report of a government avi- ator who flew over their stronghold, says Times dispatch from Dublin.
 The Exchange Telegraph has re- ceived telephone message from Dub lin saying that irregular troops at tackled the postoffice there, overpow- cred the guard and are now holding the building.
 Telegraphic communications be- tween Dublin and London ceased.
 Americans are paying over $1 a word to send messages from England to New York, taking a 15,O0O-mile route, by way of Lisbon, the Cape Verde islands and Buenos Aires, due to the tieup in the transatlantic cables held by Irish irregulars.
 Photographic communication between Great Britain and the United States continued to be gravely affected. The Irish rebels continue to hold ten of the seventeen cables in the trans-at- lantic service. There is little pros pect of an early resumption of normal service. In the meantime, press asso- citation and newspaper correspondents are limited to small fraction of their usual services because of the tieup.

FARLEY ENDS
 COAL STRIKE.
AND UNION SIGN
 FRAMED BY COMMITTEE.
OLD SYSTEM IS BROKEN
TERMS OF SETTLEMENT BREAK OLD SYSTEM OF COLLECTIVE
 WAGE ADJUSTMENT.

Cleveland-The soft coal strike is broken and an agreement has been signed between the United Mine Work CTS and operators, controlling an an- nual output of 60,000000 tons. The signing of the contract will actually end the strike in part. All details of the agreement were accepted in princi- the actual draft of the contract was left to a subcommittee.
 AS result of the progress made by operators and miners, Gov. Harry L.. Davis of Ohio announced he would call off the conference of governors of five coal producing states that was to have met in Cleveland to consider the strike situation He also an- nounced that he would withdraw Ohio militiamen who were sent into the coal fields recently.
 No exact estimate of the number of miners who will be put back to work under the settlement was obtainable but varied between 6O,OO0 and 75,OOO men. Altogether there are 450,000 soft coal miners on strike, union officials said. It is expected by them that the other operators will accept the settle ment effected at Clevelande, but mean while the strike will continue at their mines
 The terms of the settlement mark a breakdown in the system of collective bargaining that has grown up in the soft coal industry since 1884. It means the abandonment for the present al least of the central competitive field, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, as the basis for fixing wages in fields out side the four states. In the past wage contracts have been made for the central field, and those of outlying districts have been fixed on the cen tral field scale.
 This is not the first time, however, that the wage-making machinery on the central field basis has broken down. It failed in 1906, and was not fully re-established until 1910.
 The new plan of settlement is a fundamental change in the policy of the United Mine Workers of America and for that reason the union policy committee of 12S members was called to pass on it.
 Withdrawal of soft coal operators controlling an annual output various ly estimated at from 5,000000 to 15,- 100000 tons from the joint wage con ference because of the miners refusal to accede to a demand for arbitration to settle future disputes did not dis rupt the conference.
 The split in the conference came during sessions of the subScale com. mittee. For three days MT Gallagher, president of the Pittsburg Vein Oper- ators' Association of Ohio, supporting a demand for compulsory arbitration, and President John L. Lewis of the miners, who was unalterably opposed to the demand, had been unable to reach an agreement. All provisions, except this one, had been agreed to by them, but all the work was covered again in drafting the contract because of new operators being called into the conference.

The Holbrook news., 1922-08-25

Philadelphia of peace in the anthracite coal mines of Pennsyl- vania appear brighter now than at any time since the suspension became eff fective on April 1, rendering idle ap- proXimately 165.000 men.
 Negotiations between the operators and representative of the miners, broken off June 14 when the mine owners arbitration proposal was re- jected, will be resumed and the concil- iatory tone of messages between Sam uel D. Warriner, head of the operators negotiating committee, and John l.. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, arranging the conference was said by those in close touch with the situation to presage an early set tlement of the difficulties.
