The jury was out about an hour.
The claim of the plaintiff was that
provided that Mr.. Ballas should collect
accounts receivable up to $500 and turn
them over to the plaintiff. while Mr..

dence that Mr.. Ballas paid $500 for the
store and that Mr.. Naum was a competi-
tor of ID. Latchis & Sons in wholesaling
fruit, but that the wholesale fruit bust
ness was discontinued after Mr.. Ballas
bought the store. The evidence showed
that Latchs & Sons furnished $500 in
money for Mr. Ballas to make the first
payment and that the second payment
I4atchis & Sons. 1t did not appear who
paid the balance of $4,000

the country can possibly consume.
They say they prefer reasonably
steady employment six hours day
rather than irregular and unsteady
employment eight hours a day. If
they can dig all the coal that Is need
ed In six hours. why should they be
required to work eight hours? they
ask.
They want the assurance that they
will have the opportunity to work
steadily six hours a day. In that way
they can make a living. But they do
not and cannot make living under
present conditions.
THE check-oft is another issue IN
volved in the present controversy be-
tween bituminous miners and operat-
ors. The check-on IL not generally
have attempted to make the public
believe that through the check-oft
they are compelled to contribute to
the maintenance and upkeep Of the
miners union. and that, therefore, the
check-off is sinful practice and
should be abolished. The coal oper-
arors do not contribute a single cent
to the union. The check-on does not
moan anything of the kind. Here is
what the check means: A member
of the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea authorizes his employer In writing
to deduct from his pay envelope a
small part of his wages. already
earned, to pay his dues to the union.
The operator makes the deduction and
RENTS the money to the union, just As
no deducts other sums and pays them
to the doctor. the grocer, the landlord
or any other creditor. An operator
has no right to deduct any money from
the miners pay envelope without the
written order OF the miner. 1t 1, not
tho operators money that he sends to
the union. 1t is the union miners >
money.
Judge Anderson. in the Federal
court at Indianapolis. decided Few
months ago that the check-or was IL
legal. and he issued an injunction to
prohibit Its continuance. But the
United Mine Workers appealed to the
UEitcd States Circuit Court of Appeals
and that court completely reversed
Judge Anderson. Tho higher court
held that the check-ofr was entirely
legal and that it could not be cn1oined
AT that hearing Judge Baker. presid-
ing Judge said check-or was moth
ing more or less than an assignment
OF wages by an empioyc. and that any
c-nploye had the legal right to make
such assignment.
Operators say they intend to abol-
ish the check-or by refusing to agree
to its continuance. But the United
Mine Workers will not permit the op-
orators TO do anything OF the kind.
The check k-ofr Is here to stay. 1t has
been declared to be legal.
THE public Is asking: VIII there
be n strike by coal miners on the hrst
day of April? 1t would be more ac-
curate IL the public were to ask
whether there will be n suspension OF
work in the coal mines on April 1st-
There is a vast difference between n
strike and a suspension. Whatever
happens on the first of April. 1t can
not be correctly designated as strike.

U. S. PRIORITY RIGHTS
D|sREGARDED IN PACT
Preparations Agreement, How
ever Recognizes Claims In
Special Clause

PARIS. Mar. 11.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press s)-The allied finance
ministers signed an agreement this af-
ternoon for the distribution of the first
billion gold marks of German repara-
tons. The agreement dlsreg4rds ,the
American claim of priority for its ex-
pense5 in connection with occupation
of the Rhineland SO far as the actual
sharing OF this money Is concerned but
recognizes the claim by a special
clause. which states that all the agree
mcnts on this question are subject to
the American rights as the various
governments may establish them, tho
finance ministers considering that
they do not have power to decide this
question.
The ministers decided that the ques-
ton was not for the reparations COM
mission to decide. because that body
was acting solely under the provisions
Of the treaty of Versailles to which
the United States no longer was a
party. Consequently it was decided
that tho question was one for the vari-
GUS governments concerned to settle.
The finance ministers also conclud-
Cd that it was impossible for them to
reopen the long and difficult delibera-
tions which resulted In the present
agreements. so they could only reserve
tho American right and leave the
question for diplomacy to settle.
Tho agreement provides that the eI-
pcnses of the armies OF occupation at
May 1, 1921. shall be divided as fol-
lows:
Ono hundred and two million Bel
Rian French francs to Belgium. f7.-
100000 to Great Britain and 100000.
900 francs TO France. Tho distribu-
ton of deliveries of kind In Germany
In 1929 viii be on the basis of 65 per
cent to France and IS per cent to the
other allies.
Tho wicsbaden agreement will con-
.inue in force for thrcc years with tho
reservation that payments will not cx-
coed 350.00o.oo0 gold marks worth of
material in 1922: 75O.000.00O in 1923
and 75o.00o.0O0 In 1924: other powers
beside France. under the agreement
are permitted to conclude arrange
mcnts with Germany similar to the
wiesbaden agreement provided such
agreements do not call for deliveries
in kind In excess of tho total amount
fixed by tho present agreement.
None OF the powers. tho agreement
provides will be compelled to turn
back any cash as n result of deliveries
in kind. received In 1922.

because they have grievance. But
suspension is an entirely different
proposition. II the miners refuse to
work on the first of April it will be
because they have no wage agreement
whatever with their employers. They
want to know what they are to get
for their labor and under what condi-
tions they are to work. They want to
know these things before the first OF
April. II they do not find out and
they refuse to work on the first of
April 1t will be suspension and not
a strike.
The United Mine Workers of Amer
lea do not want a suspension. They
want to work. They must work to
live. They have done and are doing
every honorable thing within their
power to avert a suspension. If the
operators deal fairly with them there
will be no suspension. But there is
this difference between the miners and
the operators: the operators want a
suspension, while the miners do not

Silver and gold were voted as the

A club woman of Pueblo is wanted

touch with the president OF the Pu-
eblo club, Mrs. Rayner.
At a recent meeting in Denver, the
Pueblo delegation brought up the
question of women as Jurors. 1t was
decided that women were not wanted
on juries by lawyers or the men as a
whole, and that they themselves did
not want to serve on juries.

ment has answered that amounts paid

not constitute allowable deduction for
