COAL FAMINE IN THE MIDDLE
WEST

The middle and northwestern states
will be practically without coal with
in thirty days unless the coal strike
is brought to an end and production
of coal resumed within that time, it
is shown in a survey of the situation
completed by officials.
Actual famine of coal already is
fact in Wisconsin and the situation
is becoming general in other states.
The great automobile industries
in Michigan report that coal stocks
are practically exhausted and many
plants building automobiles and ac-
cessories have already suspended op-
erations until fuel is obtained.
Every kind of pressure is being
brought to bear to try to force the
government to take over and operate
the mines.
If the situation is not relieved in
short time the result will be not
only stagnation of industry but will
result in actual suffering as well. .

WOULD MAKE MORE VOTING
PRECINCTS IN DURANT
700 Many People Vote In Different
Wards To Make For Public
Convenience.

Since the casting in Durant at the
Tuesday election of an overwhelming
vote there has been considerable
agitation looking to the division Of
Durant's four wards into smaller
voting precincts, which is Thought To
be necessary for the proper holding
OF future elections and the Quick 70,
turns of the results.
From early morning until late at
night Tuesday, the voting booths in
wards two, three and four, were all
IN use and large numbers of voters
were in line awaiting their turns and
the election officials were Obliged to
work all night and in at least one
instance, well into the next dav to
get the results of the voting Tailed.
When one voting box rolls up as many
as seven hundred votes the machine
gets cumbersome and the result is an
inconvenience both the the voters and
to the election officials.
1t has been suggested that in lieu
OF voting wards two, three and four
in one large voting box each, that
each of these three wards be divided
into two voting precincts, with Main
street as the dividing line. A little
thought will satisfy anyone that such
change would work to the best in
tcrest of everyone during elections.

FIRST AID OFTEN SAVES
PERSONS NEARLY DROWNED
State Health Commissioner Gives
Brief Directions That Work

CDR. A. r. Lewis, Commissioner
Nowadays one hardly ever picks a
daily paper without reading of a case
Of accidental drowning in some To-
caIity or other.
All boys love TO 90 swimming and
it is one of their principal pastimcy
and under proper conditions one of
the best.
All public swimming places,
whether they are free or fee for ad-
mission is charged, should have en-
nloycd comnc,cnt men a5 life savers
and who are thoroughly conversant
with the administration of first aid
20 victims.
The popular idea that a drowning
person rise TO the surface three times
l. apparently incorrect. Some per
sons never come to the surface at all.
Others come up but once. 20 no as
sumption should be made that the rule
of coming mp three times will always
hold true.
When person has been brought
TO land or other safe place. if he is
still unconscious, the first procedure
is to get the water out of his lungs.
To do this roll him on his face.
stand astride If the hips and clasp
the hands under the lower part of the
abdomen. Lift up the hips and and
abdomen by strengthening the back.
This vii! cause the head to be low
cr than the lungs and the water will
run out of the mouth. Hold in this
position a few moments, or a. long
as any water runs out of the mouth.
Then use artificial respiration.
1t is not necessary to roll an appar-
emily drowned person on a barrel to
ret the water out of him.

BOWLING
AT TOLEDO.

Toledo, Ohio, March 30.-Showing
form that won him the individual
championship at Buffalo in 1921, by
coming back with SIT for three
games in his five-men event last
night, officials of the American
Bowling congress tournament to-
night expect Fred Smith of Detroit
to add enough in his doubles and
singles today to place him well up
if not at the TOP of the minor di-
visions.
Smith is paired with F. O'Rourke
on the afternoon squad. To retain
to beat 729, an A. B. c. record score
made several weeks ago by W.
Lundgen of Chicago. Also it will
be necessary for Smith to shoot d
1000 score IN his nine games to
take the lead in the all-events, now
held by Barney Spinella of New
York, with 1899 which is said to be
a worlds record
The first two squads of doubles
and singles today, 81 pairs, were
made up exclusively of Detroit
bowlers.
The last out of town teams to
show in the tournament will appear
tonight.
On the last squad are three from
Columbus, one from Newark, Ohio;
two from Lorain; three from Rock
ford, ILL.,; three from Evansville,
