Rival Leaders Of Striking Miners
Struggle for Control
of Meeting
FLING CONTEMPORARIES
BY the Associated Press

C0algate, Okla. April 15.-Tumul.
tuous scenes were enacted here last
night when John Wilkinson, president
of District 81, United Mine Workers
Of America, and Alexander Howat. de-
posed Kansas miners president, ad-
dressed rival meetings of miners.
Howat arose in the Wilkinson meet
ing. which was held on the first floor Of
local hotel. and demanded to be rec
ognized by e. r. Ross. secretary Of
District 81, who was acting rs chair
man. Ross refused to recognize him.
"All right. III hold a meeting Of
my own." Howat said. "You billed
this as mass meeting at which any
one might express his opinion, and If
you won't let me talk here I'll break
up the meeting"
Howat and Oscar Ameringer, editor
of the Oklahoma Leader, Socialist labor
paper ut Oklahoma City, then called for
all friends of justice" to follow them
to the second floor. where he said "the
truth would be told"
The Wilkinson followers cheered
Roes's action, and the Howat men
booed and yelled Coward" Traitor"
and more prOfanc things.
Howat challenged Wilkinson to meet
him in debate on the controversy be-
tween them. Wilkinson said that he
would meet Howat at "later date"
explaining that he was forced to 60 to
Texas to q conference today.

FIND GIRLS NUDE BODY
UPON MOUNTAIN TOP
Victim Believed srutaiIy slain Many
Months AGO

New York. April 15.--Failing to es-
tablish the identity of a girl whose nude
body was found on the wooded summit
Of Cheese Coat Mountain, near Haver-
straw, n. Y. the Rockland County
authorities are confronted with a
bafang murder mystery.
There was no doubt that the victim,
about nineteen. had been brutally slain.
Coroner William Staldmann found that
her skull had been crushed in with
some blunt instrument, welded with
terrific force.
He concluded, after examination Of
the body. that the murder had been
committed as long ago as last July or
August.
Whether the girl was killed in a
ravine about seven hundred feet below
the mountain top and her body car.

ties are at a loss to say. But they are
inclined to that theory, for number
Of trees had been ''blazed." probably

Not far from the spot where the bsdy
was discovered there was a workmen' s
amp last summer. This was disbanded
Mt about the time the girl was mur-
dered.

WORK NOT
CAUSE Of CRIME.
Most Crooks Wouldn't Work.
Anyway, Warden Nc
Kenty Declares
"S0METHING FOR NOTHING"

"When people start trying to get
something for nothing" said Robert
j. McKcnty, warden Of the Eastern
Penitentiary. "the trouble begins.
That's what lies at the bottom OF
cur present crime outbreak and almost
all other crime. to boot
He was commenting upon an inves.
tigation now being conducted BY
jurists in Chicago, having fors it's OBJ,
ject the discovery Of the fundamental
causes of crime.
ut isn't the old.timers that are
swindle stuff" continued the warden.
Mine out of ten Of them are young
fellows, who want money quick and
easy, and think they see good way
to get it.
"Unemployment? Why. I'll ven.
ture to say that you could hardly find
one of these young fellows who ever
worked in his life. Most of them
wouldn't take a job II they had it Of
fered to them on gold plate
''The men they questioned in the
Joliet Penitentiary said that the flap.
pers were to blame because it takes
so much money to show them a good
time. That may be so, at that. But
whatever they want the money for.
they want to get it in some slick way
that doesn't involve any work.
Mr.. McKenty paused to nod pleas.

Fortunately for us, we're all diff
ferent." the warden said. "lf we
weren't. both inside and out, it would
be hard to get along here on earth:
There's that big boy there with bad
record, and the love of music In his
soul. Almost every one in here has one
thing the same about him, though. They
all want to get something for nothing.
Home life and good influences are
important, Of course, but it's rare that
an inherently good man will go wrong
through circumstances alone. There
must be something in him to make him
take the wrong turn, weakness or a
natural tendency. A man knows what
is right and what is wrong.
"All a man has to do to keep out
Of trouble is to work for what he gets,
| live within his income and observe
the Golden Rule. Don't try for an
automobile on $40 week; too many
people are trying 1t now.'
The statement by the Chicago in
vestigators, that the practice Of i'm
prisoning new offenders with hardened
and confirmed criminals leads to the
complete ruination Of the former, wa.
vigorously denied by the warden.
~ don't think that causes much
crime" he said, shaking his head. "In
almost every case the old timer will
advise the newcomer to give up the life
while there Is still time.
"The old ones know that it doesn't
pay; that you can't buck the law con-
sistently and get away with 1t, but they
| themselves very often are unable to
follow their own advice because it is all
they have ever known, and the only
trade, SO to speak. that they can follow
to support themselves.
PERSONALLY, / don't think much of
these blanket Investigations of crime.
Every case is different, and every one
must be taken and treated individually.
You can't find any general cause for
crime beyond the kind in human nature
that makes criminals and suckers--that
old wish to get something for nothing"

Filled with enthusiasm for q cause Of
which she does not in the least dispair,
the Countess Markiewicz, first woman
elected to British Parliament and leader
Of Irish Republicans, dramatically told
this morning of the true. feelings Of
Ireland and her people. She arrived In
Philadelphia last night from New York
With eyes flashing and hands
the treaty with Great Britain making
Ireland Free State when her country
stood on the threshold of liberty for
which it had fought seven centuries.
How those men could have signed
that document and quit just when we
had victory within>our grasp, ! do not

no doubt that free Ireland is n

had been a step backward.

when the treaty was signed, being swept
by wave Of emotional enthusiasm.
But, IL vote were taken today the

fighting, do you think we want to
swear allegiance to the King?'
She declared Lloyd George to be the
greatest trickster in the world. "You
see how he treated Wilson and the
fourteen points. He has schemed in
the same manner against Ireland"
She merely smiled at the mention
of Margot Asquith. '"They don't pay

try John l.. Lewis, president of the
United Mine Workers of America, told
the Midday Luncheon Club here today
that 1.-THE principles at issue in this
great strike will not be compromised
by the mine workers"
"The dream of the coal operators, ("
he said, that the miners will engage
in multiplicity of conferences and
negotiate independent district agree

Mr.. Lewis said such negotiations
would be like treating patients or
ganic troubles by applying ''healing

Reverting to the mine workers aims,
he said:

can conceive industrial improvement
only through debascd manhood and

BACK OF FAMINE BROKEN
Americas Work In Russia Unpar
alleled In Worlds History

London, April 15.-(By A. PD-
"America has broken the back of the
biggest famine in the worlds history
was the Easter message sent to America
today by Walter Lyman Brown, Euro
pean director of the American Relief
Administration. His statement was
based on dispatches from the famine
districts of Russia.
1--WE have not reached the end of
our troubles" said Mr.. Brown, "but
we have successfully initiated a pro-
gram for feeding four times as many
people ms the American Army had in
France at the zenith"
While the feeding Of 5000, 900 Rus
sian adult famine sufferers is bei2g
initinted, the number of children being
fed has reached 1000, 900. There is no
parallel in history for the task America
has undertaken in the valley Of the
Volga, according to Mr.. Brown.
