The propoal ,rof the Federal
Government to the United Mine
Workers and the various coal
operators whose mines are under
suspension to submit all questions
in dispute to a national coal COM
mission for arbitration has been
declined. The mine workers de-
clined as a body. The majority
of the bituminous operators
pledged unqualified acceptance.
The anthracite operators filed un-
conditional acceptance. A minor
ity Of the bituminous operators
accepted the principle of arbitra-
ton, but made specifications which
could not be considered.
Quotes Previous Plan
For ReOpening Mines.
I had proposed that the opera
tors and mine workers in dispute
should Immediately resume coal
production under the wage scales
and working conditions which
prevailed at the time Of the
strike, on last April ]; that every
question in dispute should go to
a national commission, to be COM
posed Of three representatives OF
the mine workers, three represen-
tatives Of the operators and five
representatives of the American
public. 1t was proposed to make
the comission the final authority
on all disputes until next March,
and meanwhile the commission
was to inaugurate searching
inquiry into every phase Of the
coal industry in order to recon-
mend the way to maintained un-
derstanding between workmen

employment and assure a con-

The operators who are directing
the peace feelers have begun a care

holding a joint conference with the
miners to seek a new national agree

the proposition, as they have been in

HONOR FOR TRAINED
VETERANS BUREAU

A fellowship in international law
has been awarded by the Carnegie
Endowment for International Peace,
Washington, D. c., to Landreth M.
Harrison, age 25, a trainee of the U.
S. Veterans Bureau, who resides at

ant in the 104th Aero Squadron, and
was in the service from May Is,
1917, to September 81, 1919. At one
time while in the service his aero
plane collided with another and he
was dashed to the ground, but escaped
serious injury. November 10, 1919, he
was shot down at Mont st. Martin,
France. He fell within the German
lines, but escaped to the allies.
AS a result of these experiences,
he became seriously disabled. He was
awarded training by the u. S. Vet

NAME UNAUTHORIZED

The name of the Gallatin county
agent, R. E. Bodley, has been used III
the publicity given by certain con-
Germs conducting motor schools, &C
cording to a letter received by the
Courier, without receiving authority
from him to do SO. In the letter Mr..
Bodley states he does not know to
what extent the instructions given at
the schools are carried, and he ex-
presses the opinion that they may be
valuable. He does, however, take ex-
ception to the use of his name in
the advertising given. His letter fol-
lows:

man, Mont--Dear Sir: It has come

cial concern, or concerns, have been

SEAL SALE PLANNED
FOR TUBERCULOSIS

HELENA, Nov. 16.-That those
who contribute to the support of the
Montana tuberculosis Association
should regard their contributions more
as a matter of s~elf-protection than as
charity, is the opinion of Senator I.
j. Walsh, who returned this week to
Washington, D. c. Before leaving, the
Senator sent a liberal contribution to
help carry on the work of the tuber-
culosis association, as he will be out
Of the state when the seal sale is
held.
The germs of tuberculosis are dis
seminated by those afflicted with it,
SO everyone is exposed to the dis
ease" said the Senator, "and one
whose vigor. is depleted by illness or
exposure is likely to develop it;
therefore anything that can be done
for the suppression Dr. eradication of
tuberculosis is not only charity for
those who have it, but a protection
for everyone"
Senator Walsh has been interested
IN tuberculosis work since its begin
ming in the state, for Mrs. Walsh was
one of the first women in Montana
to realize the Importance of organized
eff ort in combating the disease. 1t
was through her that the women's
clubs became interested in the work.
W. ich ultimately resulted in the estab-
IiShnent of the state sanitorium at
C; en-. 1t "a also through the gen
er sity of senator Walsh that the
wtmen's CD and the tuberculosis
a; ISOLATION were enabled to complete
tn Eleanor Walsh Memorial cottage
at Galen.
There is rather an interesting ver-
sion of the origin of tuberculosis
which has gained some ~credence,'
said the Senator. "The disease, &C.
cording to the story, is supposed to
have been brought to Europe with
the mummies which the French SOL
diers returning from the NapoleoniC
wars brought with them from En-
rope. The germs of t~uberculosi:
were popularity supposed to have beer
scattered over Europe in this way, a:
large numbers of soldiers contracted
the disease" Senator Walsh doe;
not credit this version Of the origin o.
the disease, but thinks is more prop
able that the French soldiers, ant
their enemies as well, returned t.
their homes erceebleG in health, 81
that the disease was spread through
Europe, and later to America by TIL
