in response to subpoenas for the hear
ing on the coal mining situation which
the court has ordered.
Both mine operators and officers of
the mine workers union are expected
to appear in Topeka Thursday for the
general mine wage inquiry. Recent
decisions in industrial court cases de-
claring that the labor court had au-
thority to summon witnesses and
compel their attendance will likely
cause a general response to subpoenas
issued by the court last week.

to demonstrate that wages in the
mines failed to keep pace with wages
in other industries during the war
That the total increase has been
only 65 per cent. since 1916; that the
mine operator is making an excessive
profit and that the mines could con-
tinue to show a reasonable profit to
the operator after granting both an
increase in wages and a reduction in
prices.

Senator Frances determination
to re-enter the lists indeed should
be hailed as glad tidings by the
Democratic party managers. And
# perchance the senator should
be. successful in gaining the Re
publican nomination. there will
be much more cause for rejoicing
in the opposition camp. The
general prediction is that it would
mean a Democratic landslide here
in November.
During his occupancy of the
senatorial chair in Washington
Senator France has been mos,
consistent in doing the unexpect-
ed things-Iiis opinions have. to a
great extent, been greatly at var
lance with public opinion in the
State OF Maryland. and in the
eyes of the public he is stamped
as radical OF the deepest hue.
The real surprising thing
about his candidacy is that it is
so tremendously orthodox - thai

Sen. FRANCE,s CANnnACY

Apparently undisturbed by the
recent attempt of some members
of his own political faith to read
him out OF the Republican party
following his speech in the Sen
ate which incurred the displeas-
ure of many of his G. Q. p
brethren, Senator France again
has stepped into the limelight by
formally announcing his candi-
dacy for denomination to the
United States Senate.
The announcement. however
has occasioned little surprise. for
it was almost foregone conclus-
ton that the Junior senator from
Maryland would seek TO return to
the Senate. 1t was scarcely to be
expected that man who could
seriously suggest that this nation
extend loan of a few billions OF
dollars to the unstable Bolshevik
government. and who could make
such proposal with a straight
face and apparent sincerity
would lie down and cringe under
a whitening assault made either
by enemies within his own party
or by public opinion.

A NOTABLE RECORD


For the past several years Ma
val Academy lacrosse teams have
been turning in victory after vic
tory with such unfailing and
clock-like regularity that the eyes
OF the entire amateur sport world
finally have become focused upon
the Nays splendid record OF
achievement ever since the game
was first taken up by the Mid
shipmen.
Despite the fact that it has been
a number of years since a Navy
lacrosse team has gone down to
defeat, it, remained for the present
season, which came to close on
Saturday, for the Navy to prove
almost conclusively that it is
without a peer in the intercollegi-
ate lacrosse realm. The oppon-
ents laid low by this years
twelve included many of the high
est ranking lacrosse aggregations
IN the country, and the mere fact
that in each and every instance
the victories were cIean-cut and
decisive lends added strength to
Nays prestige
To defeat such teams as Lee
high, Swarthmore and Johns
Hopkins with comparative case,
rs was done by this years Navy
team, is in itself sufficient proof
OF Nays strength, for the first
named institutions were the lead
ing triumvirate in college lacrosse
for many years. In fact, Johns
Hopkins, which was beaten by the
Navy only few days ago by a
81 score, has long been consid-
cred the Nestor of college la
crosse in the. United States. its
teams having won intercollegiate
lacrosse honors time and time
again, while Lehigh and Swarth-
more, too, have at various inter
walls occupied the high pedestal.
However, by lowering the coll
ors of the all-star Mount Wash
ington Club, of Baltimore, last
Saturday, the Navy team accom-
plished a feat that many close
followers Of the sport thought
would be too hard a proposition
for the Navy team to handle
With a lineup composed of for
mer college lacrosse stars know
ing how to play the game from
every angle, and presenting a
team considered to be one OF the
real, top-notch twelves in the
United States. Mount Washing
ton was confident of putting an
end to Nays long string of vic
tories. That the Middies should
reverse the tables and win the
game by a 3-2 score over such a
high class team is indeed a note
worthy achievement and moA
fitting climax to the 1929 lacrosse
season at the Academy.
