VIII Not Follow Lead Of Henry Ford
In Announcing Shut Down on Ae-
count Of Coal Shortage Some
Plan 70 Use Oil

New York Aug. 2S.- Industry in
general does not plan to follow tho
lead of Henry Ford in closing down
plants because Of the coal shortage
and prevailing high prices of fuel.
a survey made by the United Press
showed today. Some plants, how
ever. have already curtailed opera
tions or plan TO do so soon
The packing plants. largest indus
try in Chicago. report that they are
operating sixty per cent on oil and
forty per cent on coal. The mana
ger of Armour and company said
that in case of total lack Of coal he
could operate the plant entirely
with oil This same condition, he
stated, applies TO other packers.
There has been a slight curtail-
ment Of subway service in New
York but industry is not suffering
much, owing to the influx OF import
ed English coal
llNu0iIldl icdu1IS dt Dpli Rih'ii7
natl and indianapolis claim they
have sufficient coal supplies ON
hand to guarantee operation.
The large manufacturing plants in
Milwaukee including the Palm Olive
Soap company and the Allis Chalm-
ers company. see no immediate
prospect of shutdown or curiail-
ment
From Harrisburg, Pa. comes the
report that the steel industry there
is curtaied not only because of the
coal shortage but also due to the
railroad strike. Production of the
giant steel mills near there has
dropped from seventy to fifty per
cent within the last few days. Since
oil is being used in many cases
there is no immediate prospect of
following Ford.
Other than the Ford plants, there
will be no shutdown and very little
in Houston. Tex. Okla
homa City, the principal industry of
which is the packing business, re-
ports that it has plenty of coal and
oil to continue full operations.

Il certainly hope the men of the

when asked if women would be more
active than they were in the demo-

overlooked big opportunity in

Jackson, Amador County, Calf.
Aug. 2S.-Fate of approximately 45
miners entombed by fire and cave-in
on the $500 foot level of the Argo.
naut gold mine here, remained un.
known at . a. m. today.
At that hour volunteer Red
Cross crew, headed by Superintendent
Downing of the mine, had been
for an hour attempting
to check the identity of the men EN-.
tombed, and arranging first aid.
All available men in Jackson we're
sent into the mine in a frantic effort
at rescue.
The eave.in which was reported
just after the midnight shift entered
the mine, closed the main workings
for a distance Of about 500 feet.
All communication with the en-.
tombed men was broken off.
Indications were that either tunnel.
ing from one of the open shafts of
the mine or digging a way through
the 500 feet of debris were the only
possible means of effecting rescue.
Although mine officials refused to
make any statement, it was known
they doubted seriously the chances
of bringing the entombed miners out
alive.

PLATFORM LAID
 FOR 2,O0O MEN VICILANTES

DENVER, March 2S. A "vigi- lance" committee of 2,000 male "churchgoers" is what Denver needs to guard it's morals and compel public officials and courts to en- force laws against social transgres- sions, according to Rev. w. H. Wray Boyle, noted Presbyterian minister of this city.
 The clergyman's proposal of a league of church members, 2,O00 strong, composed wholly of men, organized to compel courts and pub- lie officials to enforce the social laws" followed the declaration of United States District Attorney J. Foster Symes that "a public official will do just as much as you want him to do-and no more"
 Dr. Boyle denied that his proposed organization would conduct any cam- paign of secret methods along lines similar to those practiced by the Ku Klux Klan, asserting that it would merely be league of the people in defense of the law"
 HERE IS "PLATFORM"
 Some of the activities suggested for the proposed league of 2,000'' were:
 Compel the city to have a curfeW rung at 9 o'clock every night, at which tint all children must be at home with their parents or guar dians.
 Station committee at the entrance of all dance halls to see that no boy or girl under eighteen years of age is admitted.
 Bring influence to bear to compel the closing of all private clubs at night.
 The province of the league, ac- cording to the minister, should be to offer protest against court de- cisions acquitting defendants when the evidence is clear that they are guilty; to eliminate the professional bondsman; to watch the dockets for iurymen who can be bought or cor rupted; to demand a dismisasal of policemen found recreant in their duties; to publish the names of law yers who repeatedly defent crimin- als: to confiscate automobiles en- ployed in immoral ascapades and ar rest the owners; close up all houses proved to be disorderly; censor moving picture houses and compel their closing during the hours of church worship, and watch booksel- lers who show an inclination to handle dangerous literature.
 SHOULD FUNCTION FEARLEssLY
 This programme, according to Dr Boyle, would not be at all difficult to carry out if a league of 2,00C determined men should be formed and function regularly and fearles- sly"
 ''Entrances of our public dance halls should be carefully guarded | to keep out young people, eighteen years old or under" Dr. Boyle said 'They have no business in such places. I do not think it out of place to suggest that certain Womer should be given official stars, with power to protect our young girls from the human wolves that roam our streets and infest our places o1 public amusement. Such womer could prevent untold harm to large numbers of our young girls"
 Dr. Boyle contende dthat the prov. ince of the church is to promote aad teach the ethics of Christianity as will as to promulgate the Gospe of Jesus Christ.
 "The church has sacred mora responsibility in the direction of re- form," he asserted.
