HOOVER's EFFORTS TO
END COAL STRIKE, VAIN

WASHINGTON, ID. c.. June -
Secretary Hoover in a report to the
senate today disclosed that he and
secretary Davis had sought to pre-
sent recently, suggestions which il
had been hoped would lead to settle
ment of the existing coal strike, but
so far their efforts have Lcen without
result
The Commerce Secretary's state
.nent, which was the first disclosure
hat the government had sought TO
intervene in the struggle between mi
ners and operators was contained in
1 response TO the resolution ty Sena-
Tor Walsh, Democrat. Massachusetts,
adopted by the Senate several days
,go, calling for information regard
ing the coal situation.

came from his pen, made his for
tune. From obscurity he sudden
ly came into much money. He
had his town house and his coun-
try place and was in such demand
on Broadway, New York, that h !.
declined to sing outside the area
OF the bright lights.
And it was the bright lights
that eventually brought his ruin.
He was as liberal a spender as
he was prolific as song-writer
and when evil days came he was
able OF save only little from the
wreck. Finally came a mental
breakdown and Branes went to
spend his last days in an asylum
and at last to sleep in a pauper's
grave.
So many writers OF our songs
have travelled the same road
Many OF the luminous lights oil
the lyric world have stirred the
hearts OF the people, won high
places for themselves. and have
died in poverty and oblivion
Tickle fortunes favorite for {
day, warned upon and fiattered
they came at last to drink tht
bitter dregs of obscurity anC

Who beyond the age of 40 does

words of that simple old chorus
of "Goodby. Dolly Gray" sung
by soldiers and sweethearts, BY
concert singers and vaudeville
performers, brayed by bands and

WEDNESDAY. JUNE Z. 1922.
AROUND THE WORLD BY AIR

Perhaps the most ambitious at
tempt in the line Of air navigation
yet conceived is that OF Major w.
r. Blake and his companions
who left England with the inten-
ton of circumnavigating the
globe through the air. OF course,
il can be done, Notwithstanding
inishaps which already have been
experienced.
The numerous long air voyages
already performed show that
there is nothing impossible in the
plan. Already large distances in
the worlds air routes have been
traversed and great difficulties
have been overcome in this navi-
cation. Still the project to go
clear around our mundane sphere
excites the imagination 1t re-
calls the day when Jules Verne
"Around the World in Eighty
Days" was a piece of vivid hc-
ton. 1t has long been possible
to make the surface journey with
in the time set by the French nov
elist, but so far no one has shown
how quickly the circuit OF the
earth can be made by using the
air routes.
Major Blake expects to make
the journey in about three
months. if he meets with no UNI
expected difficulties, and will
probably spend something like
300 hours in the air. The route
he has chosen will take him ap,
proximately 10000 miles around
the globe, which means that he
must average 100 miles an hour
while on the move--a lively
speed to keep up so long.
An interesting feature of the
trip will be the test it will afford
of several makes of aircraft, since
IT is contemplated to use four diff
ferent machines during the jour,
ney. Major Blake expects to get
as far as Calcutta in the first air
plane, and from that city to Van
couver in the second machine. a
seaplane being used. Canada is
to be crossed in a machine OF an
other type, and the fourth air
plane is expected to take The
party from Newfoundland tC
Scotland.
Recent development of ali
travel i'll Europe has been very
remarkable. Only yesterday an
nouncement was made from Lon
don of the success of Louis Bren
mans new helicopter which, it is
predicted, may be the means OF
revolutionizing flying, as the new
machine is said to be capable OF
rising straight into the air and OF
making landing in a compare
lively small area. With the per
lection of this new invention, an
other big step will have been
made in conquering the air.

The Phillips farm, Neu Eruns,uicks house of silence

that autopsies had not been performed They
had failed to search the abandoned Phillips
farm for weapons or other possible clews.
They had "grilled" the sfutle, bewildered
Jimmy Mills in lengthy, ungentle interroga-
tions at the courthouse and had pursued
quite different tactics with Mrs. Hall, widow
of the rector. The first few times she was
questioned representatives of the prosecu-
tors called, hat in hand, at her home But
the day of Mrs. Mills funeral her daughter
Charlotte and the husband were brought to
the courthouse and questioned for hours.
Then when this partiality was commented
on they corrected the situation by treating
Mrs. Hall in surly, menacing way Finesse
seems to be as foreign to them as fleas on
Mexican hairless dog. Their chief trouble
at first was a disposition to create the impress
sion that they knew everything there was to
know, an attitude Of infallibility Ferdinand
David, who is Prosecutor Stricker's choice
for the position of chief county detective
best illustrated this.

The property is now recorded in Leyin,a
name
New Brunswick people are beginning to
squirm under the onus of the murder scandal
and the civic shortcomings that have been
dragged into view as a result Yet for the
first weeks of the investigation the business
men Of the town were timorous about express
ing themselves. They feared retaliation if
they offended any one, and the business men
OF New Brunswick are no different than the
business men Of other communities of similar
size. But there are evidences that they are
waking up; that they are recognizing that
their own families are not necessarily inn
mune from harm from scme of the conditions
that prevail in their town. They are begin
ming to cast sharp glances at the numerous
corner Ioafers; to ask questions about the
tougher saloons and gambling houses. They
have asked themselves: Am my brothers
keeper?" and have answered u few that
have talked TOD: es, I'n1 even willing to
be his jailer.' They are planning to put
their officials to work
They realize that the folks who are sending
their sons and daughters to Rutgers College
and the New Jersey State College for Women
are probably feeling uncomfortable as they
read about Tho ssgoings on In New Bsuns-
wick.

cigar clutched between his teeth his jowls
seem to protrude beyond the brim
David had his feet up on flat topped
desk the only time I was in his office, two days
after the bodies were found His thumbs
were hooked behind suspenders that were
exposed to the world by his failure to wear
coat or vest. He was surrounded by re-
porters. suppose he had right to be an
noyed by some of the questions they asked
him, but then he should have been patient,
remembering that they were strangers, giving
him credit for acumen and a sense of re-
sponsibility.
He mentioned the name of man who had
not previously been under Suspicion Of the
people of New Brunwick or considered by
the unofficial investigators.
"What do you know about him, eh?" David
demanded in a significant tone. "What do
you know about green automobile?"

Gus and then, as most of the reporters left
the room, he whispered to another reporter
WITH Wnom he seemed to have had a previous
acquaintance, cautioning him: Don't pay
any attention to that stuff. It's bunk. was
just giving em an earful"
His wit resulted in the name Of a man
against whom there is not a shadow of evi-
aehce, Deing headlined as a suspect. Again
ana again David has sought to exercise that
peculiar sense of humor at the expense of
the reporters, not seeming to realize that in
MS post as acting chief of the prosecutors
detectives ne was speaking officially, and that
by pointing the finger of suspicion at prob
ably innocent man he was abusing his authority
more than If ne had given prisoner brutal
third degree.
While David's feet were still off the floor
reporter came in with crimped cartridge
smell that he had found in the grass near the
spot Where the bodies had been found It was
additional circumstantial evidence that DR..
Hall and Mrs Mills had been murdered where
their bodies were found--in Somerset Coun-
ty and out of the jurisdiction of Prosecu-
tor Stricken, David's boss. The reporter was
trif1e unfair. He held it under Dayid,s nosa
ana there was trace of taunt in his voice
as he recounted the comparative ease with
which it had been found intimating that the
detectives had not done their work thoroughly.
1t is probably the very cartridge that was
fired at Hail." he finished.
"Yeh?" David was generous. He uttered
another "yeh." But he didn't unhook his fin
gers from his suspenders and he BETRAYED no
further interest in bit Of brass that NAV
some day be labeled Exhibit B" in the trial Of
DR.. Halls murderer
day or so later, when the shell was shown
to John Tooian, Stricker's assistant, he imme-
dlately asked for possession of it. It was
Iooian who announced that every member of
the congregation of the Church of st. John the
Evangelist was to be- questioned concerning
the murder, a sensible procedure which never
was followed. That was the last statement
Toolan made for publication Who shut him
up and why?

Hayes Justice Day'' a Hint
OF Public's Feeling

That attitude was reflected in the collect
tion of S1,400 on the streets in response to a
tag day appeal for Justice Fund" for Cliff
ford Hayes. The money was contributed two
days after Hayes had been released from iai
exonerated Of the lying murder charge made
against him by Raymond Schneider. That
money was a sort of Chinese votve offering
intended further to enlbarrass the deeply
chagrined officials of Middlesex and Somerset
counties Only fraction of that sum was
contributed by friends of Hayes. The average
person In New Brunswick recognizes him for
what he is--a young Irish lad with not much
education and not overpowering inclination
to work. His last job, given up about six
or eight weeks, ago, was cooking in an owl
lunch cart. Yet, when he was freed from
Jail he was treated as conquering hero, and
every cheer for Hayes was hiss for Prose
cutor Stricken and Prosecutor Beekman and
their detectives
Make no mistake there. They were not
jeering Jersey justice. They were criticising
an unbelievably inept functioning Of Jersey
justice, coupled with demonstrated inclina-
ton of some of these officials towards snob-
berry. Every tag that was worn on "Hayes
Justice Day. was red flag of rebellion
against the incompetence, or worse, of the
officials who had failed to hunt for evidence
that would lead to the murderers They had
failed to have autopsies until newspaper re-
porters, comparing the conflicting statements

with the observations of New Brunswick

to examine the body of Mrs Mills, disclosed
