Invitation to Take Part

100000 MEN INVOLVED
Operators Believe United Mine
Workers Will Be Alone in
Their Walkout.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, March rs. - With
ranks of union coal miners of the coun-
try unbroken and ready to strike at mid
night March 81. John l.. Lewis, president
OF the United Mine Workers OF America,
at home here tonight. declared his head
first response to the invitation to the
100000 non-union miners to lend their
aid and join in the nationwide walkout.
Mr.. Lewis indicated he expected ia
vorable action Upon the invitation by
many of the non-union workers. but coal
operators here secuted the idea.
The call to non-union workers to
Join the United Mine Workers In the
strike was authorized at the conference
in Cleveland Friday. and the calls are
to be sent out carly this week from dis
trict headquarters in the States where
the non-union forces are strongest: vir-
ginia. West Virginia, Pennsylvania. Ala
bama, Kentucky. Tennessee. Colorado
and New Mexico.
WASHINGTON, March 26.--That own

thracite and bituminous, are forcing a
general strike in union mines by their
"autocratic attitude" and that the rea-
son for their attitude can be found In

financial interests were charges made to-

the mines was thus taken TO an effec-
tive degree from the hands of actual
operating men and placed in the hands
of financial interests" Coal mines have
become merely wheels In great profit
making machine" he said. operated by
men for whom "all things must give
way to profits
As to the anthracite fields. Mr.. Com
pers said that Congressional investiga-
tions and Federal proceedings had dis
closed seven railroads controlling 96
per cent. of the output"
He named the roads AS the Reading,
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western,
Lehigh Valley, Delaware and Hudson.
Pennsylvania. New York, Ontario and
Western and Lehigh Coal and Naviga-
ton companies. AS a result. he asserted,
was that profits from coal operations
are not found In the coal mine reports,
but in dividend reports of the railroads"
where they are manipulated SO as to
appear moderate, or at loss. In order
that miners wages may be retained at
the lowest conceivable level"
In the bituminous fields. he said. the
United States Steel Corporation controls
vast interests" and In Southern terri
tory, other steel interests control vast
deposits" making It impossible for
practical coal management to have any
effective voice in the making OF pol
icies"

The woman bootlegger Is multiplying

the prohibition unit here.
Prohibition Commissioner Haynes IS.
being urged to work out special plan
of battle against women who violate
the dry laws. Employment of women
detectives is being urged as one remedy.
Police every day make arrests Of
women bootleggers In Washington. New
York and along the Canadian and Mexi-
can borders. More than 100 members
of the sex are now awaiting trial in
principal cities on charges OF attempt
ing the Illegal transportation and sale
of liquor. the records show.
Prohibition officials complain that not
only do they find the women difficult tn
detect but that juries are often loath TO
give them punishment equal 70 that
given to male lawbreakers. Male boot
leggers find L difficult to compete with
them. Women are able to make sew
erai sales to one by the men. detectives
say.
Women conduct secret bars for the
sale Of whisky by the glass in New York
and some other big cities. according to
prohibition officers. Although these un-
derground saloons are being raided daily
and arrests made. new places spring
UP overnight to take the business that
is left A large quantity OF the whisky
sold in these places is manufactured by
the women proprietors. from grain alco-
hol and coloring ingredients. More than
ten gallons of this makeshift liquor was
seized In one recent raid on a place
established by a woman.
On the borders OF the United States
and especially on the Canadian line,
women are active as snugglers OF
run rum across the border after dark
They permit their homes to be used as
warehouses for snlugglers, and In many
other ways aid the traffic, according to
dry officials.
At Detroit, women have shown them
selves most ingenious in smuggling
small quantities of liquor across from
Canada. Several women smugglers have
been caught whose clothing was espe-
cially made for the concealment of bot
ties containing liquor. One woman at
tempted to drive an automobile across
the international bridge at Niagara
Falls with twelve bottles Of whisky con-
ceaIed mainly in her clothing. Detectives
suspected this woman because she wore
such a large coat on comparatively
warm day

ware in size. is the second small

parison is, OF course, made on early
apples.
According to Government reports
the total number of cars OF apples
shipped In the United States from
July LIST 1922 TO July 3ist. 1892 in
elusive, was 1855 cars. OF this
amount 166 cars were shipped from
northern California and the North
west and were not early apples. De-
Quoting this 1876 cars from the total
number of cars shipped. we have
actually 1900 cars OF early apples
shipped during this period, and OF
this 1900 cars. S65 cars or approx
mately 40 per cent OF the total ship
ments came from the little state Of
Delaware. During our heaviest
shipping season which was from
July LIST to July 22nd inclusive, Del
aware shipped sos cars out OF
total OF 1927. or more than 4s per
cent OF the total shipments. During
this period Illinois ranked second
with shipments OF approximately
4s6 cars. The figures for Delaware
do not include the vast amount OF
apples that were hauled from the
Delaware orchards by truck.
Practically all OF the apples in
Delaware are grown in Kent and
northern Sussex counties. in an area
of perhaps 35 miles long and 90
miles wide, and the fact that this
small section produced during a
period OF three weeks almost Nas
many apples as the balance OF the /
United States put together, is surely
evidence that Delaware ranks first
not only in the number OF trees per
square mile, but in the actual |
amount OF apples produced. and
shows that the fact that we have
more trees means something.
