IMPROVED BUSINESS
CONDITIONS SHOWN
IN CUSTOMS REPORTS

Washington, July 5.--Generally
improved business conditions in the
country are reflected In increased

ing the last fiscal year for 1873

sued tonight by Assistant Secretary
of the Treasury Elmer Dover. in
charge of customs.
"The United States customs re-
ceipts for the fiscal years just
ended" he said, amount to $780,
443,3S7, which is an increase of
s4S,41S,2S5 over last year. The
highest previous year in the history
Of the customs covering 1913 years,
was in 1910 when receipts amount
ed to $S33,6S3, 445, so that the re-
ceipts for this year are nearly

fall ADVISES
DAMAGE FOR
VALLEY LANDS

II. F. Robinson, chief of the In
dian irrigation service, who has
recently returned from Washing
ton, D. c., gave out information
yesterday regarding an interview
he had with A. B. Fall, secretary
of the interior, with regard to the
drainage problems in the Rio
Grande valley, and in particular
with reference to the Indian lands
drainage matter.
MIR. Fall stated" said Mr.. Rob
inson, that he desired to do all
possible for this section Of the
state. He further said, however
that unless the people of the val
ley took advantage of the McNary
bill, which is shortly to be passed,
their chance to enrich the valley
and improve the business and well
fare of the section of the state
would be deferred for some time.
''In any event" Mr.. Robinson
continued, "Mr. Fall expressed a
desire to see at least a goodly por-
ton of the Indian lands drained,
both TO aid the Indians and to act
as an object lesson to the white
people of the state should they fail
to put the present drainage law
through"
Mr.. Robinson has been author
ized by the secretary of the in
terror to make surveys and esti-
mates of the practicability, etc, of
draining the Indian lands. The
drainage of these lands would be
engineered as a separate project.
"Mr. Fall intimated," said Rob-
inson, that with the proposed
power facilities in effect at the
Elephant Butte dam, the drainage
and irrigation Of THIS entire section
could be achieved with the power
from this source, at a very low
cost. The Roosevelt reservoir,
which, I believe, furnishes about
5000 horsepower at one-half to
three-quarters of a cent per kilo-
watt hour, could also be used in
other sections of the state, where
as lis the case with the mesa east
of town, the water would have to
be pumped up to the dry area"
! Mr.. Robinson is going ahead
with the surveys, for the interior
department, on the Indian lands.

ON COAL STRIKE
SET FOR TODAY
Parties to the Anthracite
Situation Will Meet; Sec
rotary Fall Is Expected to
Be Present.
(By The Associated Prrss.)

Washington, July 5.--While set
Element of the bituminous coal
strike appeared tonight to hinge on
the meeting the operators and min
ers are expected to have with Pres
ident Harding next Monday, anoth-
err conference of the parties to the
anthracite situation will be held
tomorrow.
1t was expected that Secretary
Fall would again meet the miners
union officials and mine owners
representatives, but the impression
was that the session might be in
conclusive with the result that any
action would be held up pending
the outcome of the bituminous
sessions.
Though neither bituminous OPP
orators nor the officials of the
miners union assembled had power
to make binding decisions for their
associates, the anthracite confer
ence, as summoned by President
Harding, constituted actually
joint wage negotiating group.
S. d. Warmer, chairman of the
general committee of anthracite
operators and Phillip Murray, vice
chairman of the mine workers, led
the respective delegations which
met Saturday night empowered to
make wage settlement and are
expected to do so again tomorrow.
AN indications preliminary to the
meetings were that the union con-
tingent would offer to negotiate a
new wage contract on the general
basis of scales existing March 81,
while the operators, asking a re-
duction Of wages, would tender arbi-
tration at the hands of President

Board members declared that
the points at issue in both cases
were somewhat similar although
the maintenance men had only bal
lotted on the question of accepting
a 100000 wage reduction The
track men agreed to accept this cut
under protest on the promise that
the labor board would Immediately
hear their pleas for wage advances,
retroactive to July /, when the pay
slashes became effective.
Fifth Day of Walkout.
Meanwhile the fifth day of the
walkout passed in comparative
quiet, although several clashes were

new men to take the places of the
strikers, while others notified their
men that their places would be held
open for them until July 10. Traffic
