You Serve Yourself
There are a lot OF interesting
things about this newest OF our

they have three newspapers, there
are no newsboys or practically none.
The papers sold on the streets are
left in painted tin receptacles at the
street corners, and anyone wishing
paper leaves his pennies and takes
the paper and no questions asked.
The streets are marked by signs

HooUer Insists on Voice
For Public i'm Strikes
Third Party Must Be Heard, as
Chief Sufferer in AH Labor
Conflicts, Declares Secretary

WASHINGTON, Sept. 5. - Develop
ment of a plan whereby the voice of
the public may be heard in conflicts
between employer and employee, such
as in the coal situation, was declared
to-day by Secretary Hoover to be one
of the most vital issues before us.
"There is one fundamental lesson y
Mr.. Hoover said, that the public
should absorb from the coal situation,
and this lesson can be derived with
out discussion of the rights and wrongs
of the demands of either mine workers
or mine operators, or the incidents of
negotiation in their settlement. That
is, a four months suspension of pro-
duction in the coal industry, while
primarily conflict between employer
and employee, brings the public in as
the largest sufferer. The public is the
victim of infinite loss; unemployment
extends from it not only of the work
ers in the industry. but to hundreds Of
thousands outside of it; great damage
is done to commerce and industry;
public health is jeoDardized, and vast
wave of crime and defiance of the law
has easued.
"Yet the public has no voice in the
negotiations and cannot express itself
either as TO the right or wrong of the
matter fhe demands of either side
may be just or unjust, but the largest
sufferer concerned has no representa-
tion in the discussion"

Miners Trapped Under
Sea in English Colliery
Little Hope Held Out for Reach.
ing Men Who We're ON
Submarine Job
From The Tribune'a Europeap Burenu


LONDON, Sept. Sat least thirty
miners are believed to be entombed in
a coal shaft under the sea as the re-
suit Of an explosion to-day in colliery
pit at Whitehaven, on the Cumberland
coast. The men were operating sub
marine workings about quarter of a
mile from the pit when the explosion
occurred
So far eighteen bodies have been re-
covered. and it is thought there is lit
tie hope of reaching the imprisoned
men in time to save their lives. Rescue
parties are hampered by gas and the
falling of roofs in the mine. Several
have been brought to the surface un-
conscious.
Among those entombed is the son
Ct a Whitehaven clergyman named
FELL, who made his first descent this
morning as mining student.
Whitehaven was the scene of one Of
Britaln's worst colliery disasters in
1910, when 1876 lives were lost in the
pits of the same company which suf-
fered from to-day's explosion
