By International News Service.


Government nurses, caring for
Americas shattered war heroes, are
being paid less than ordinary char
women, according to a vigorous protest
made today by Capt. Norman ]. Black
wood, head Of the Navy Hospital at
Chelsea, Mass. before the conference
of Federal hospital commandants. he
charged that scrubwomen, janitors and
stenographers were receiving higher
salaries than the women upon whose
care the lives Of thousands Of wounded
soldiers depended. He urged immedi-
ate pay increases for all nurses.
Brig. Gen. Charles E. Sawyer. head
of all Government disqualification, de-
clared the disqualification board would
consider a plan for aiding the nurses.
The conference wildly applauded the
naval captains protest.
"Stenographers in my hospital are
getting 500 to $3.50 a month";" he said.
Their work Is important, true enough,
but not nearly as important as the
work Of nurses. The majority of our
nurses are paid from $50 to 800, q
few head nurses getting more.
Addresses were made to the con-
ference during the forenoon by Col.
r. U. Patterson, DR.. 8. p. Rawis and
Col. III. NJ. Evans, all officials of the

There are at the present time in

In 1920, 10000 deaths occurred in

Tent Meeting
Kelton, 8. c., Aug. 10, 1922.

helpon, =. C., Aug. ~, lSI2.1 s
A congregation Of about 600,
enough to have Allied all the churches
in the section, heard Rev. Sam 4.
Creech preach at the tent last night
on "Sowing and Reaping." He spoke
of the folly of trying to deceive ones
neighbors, or acquaintance, and the
greater folly of trying to deceive God
In speaking of the MULTIPLYING of the
deeds of ones life in the character OF
others he used as an illustration The
fact that one oat seed sown will pro-
duce. the first year 800 grains.
which, if sown, will produce the sec
nd year 40 bushels of oats, all from
one seed in the second generation.
Then he spoke of the terrible results
that follow sowing whiskey, profan-
ity, card parties, dances and swim
ming parties in the desecration Of
character and kome. He gave touch
ing incidents from his own expert
ence to demonstrate the statements
ne was making. With tremendous
force he delivered himself against
whis':ey and for prohibition. He said
that he has always voted the prohibi-
tion ticket.
Quite a number came up in re-
sponse to his invitation at the close
of services, indicating their purpose
TO live better lives.
A feature of the meeting continues
to be the good singing done by a
chorus of local singers. The new and
beautiful songs that are sung hold
the attention of the audience.
The lights were not regular Thurs
day night, but were perfect last night.

ANTHRACITE COAL
STILL in DOUBT

Philadelphia, Aug. 19.-The joint
conference of anthracite coal opera
tors and union officials adjourned
about 11:30 until Monday without
reaching an agreement for the settle
ment of the hard coal strike. No in
formation was given out concerning
progress made toward settlement.
Philadelphia, Aug. 18,~Peace in
the anthracite coal regions was not in
sight tonight when the joint confer
ence of operators and representatives
of the mine workers adjourned, after
four hours continuous session, un-
til tomorrow.
No intimation was give as to
whether any progress had been made
toward reaching an agreement that
would send the 155, 900 men back 20
work. Neither Samuel D. Warmer,
spokesman for the operators, nor
John L. Lewis, president Of the min
ers and head of the miners delegation
in the negotiations, would disclose
what had taken place at the prolonged
session. Neither would. they say
whether they still held the optimistic
views both expressed prior to and
after the first session of the confer
ence yesterday.
AS the conferees passed down the
corridor through lines Of waiting
newspapermen, James A. German of
Hazleton, secretary Of the joint con-
ference board of anthracite miners
and operators, passed out state
ment which he said was issued in
behalf Of both sides, saying the neso-
tiations would be resumed tomorrow
at 10 o'clock. Beyond this it con.
tanned no information.
Prior to the meeting today it was
stated unofficially that the point that
would probably cause he most diff
Guilty in the negotiations was the
duration of new contract.

love that is still yours, or have in
closed with my body the picture of
yourself you promised me-" his last

"He was madly in love with me-
Miss Stobbe said after the police had
taken her to the police station for
questioning.
81 met him in Canton, Ohio, two
years ago while he was working as a
telegrapher. He called to see me
many times. He wrote me many
fervent letters. But I never encour-
aged him. I did not love him."
Miss Stobbe said Kepler followed
her here last Friday and called her
time after time on the telephone.

to do with him and hung up the re-
ceiver," she said.
