BOOSTER FROM DENVER
Says San Antonio Ideal For Winter
and Denver For Summer.

7. Edgar Smith, Denver hotelman,
taking advantage of the slack season
there. is spending a few weeks at the
st. Anthony enjoying the winter in
San Antonio. While Mr.. Smith is n
strong contender for Denver as the
ideal summer resort, there is no clash
between his city and San Antonio in
that respect, and in an interview Sat
urday night he felt free TO express his
opinions Of this city as the winter
playground.
Mr.. Smith is an ardent golf en-
thusiast. and last year, he said, he
spent several weeks in California. go
ing there for winter playing. During
his entire stay he was able to play
three times and then on rain soaked
course. This year he is having better
luck under San Antonio skies.
San Antonio. he said. has all Of the
advantages in the world, but the city
has not yet fully learned the value of
advertising. As n result of the recent
advertising campaign by the local
Chamber of Commerce, Mr.. Smith said.
that this was the first year that he
had noticed San Antonio's advantages
being broadcast over the country. He
was especially attracted by the nation
wide advertising campaign being car
ried on by California this year, he
said, having learned through expert
ence that it takes advertising of this
nature to make country. Colorado
business men are now laying nlans for
n campaign to raise $4,000 with
which to advertise the resources of the
state.
The Shirley Hotel Co., Of which he
is secretary and treasurer. each year.
he said, spends approximately $4,000
in advertising. and the other large
hotel IS of the city spending equally as
much.
That San Antonio will have one of
the largest years since the war, he be-
lieved. can be counted upon as an in
dication that the summer travel like
wise will be heavy. The tourist sea-
SON in Denver begins in July. and
last year the strike cae inst as the
movement was getting under way.

EDUCATION, URGED BY LABOR, MAKES RAPID
 STRIDES IN PUBLIC SCHOOL s

instruction to these employed boys and girls by part-time and evening schools. Thus, our public school sys- tenn ceases to be monopoly of the well-to-do.
 Of the present enrolment in the federal-aided schools, 13o,o73 students are attending trade and industrial schools, II8,7o8 are in home econom- ics schools, 6o,236 are in agricultural schools and I65,oII are in general part-time continuation schools. It Is in the development of the trade and industrial and the general contiuna- ton schools that the trade union movement is now interested.
 The funds available to the states under the federal act increase each year until maximum is reached in 1926 For the fiscal year 1o2I-22, just closing, the amount available was $4,- I2o,833.72. For the current year the amount is increased to $4,6I5,15o.8I. That the state and local school auth critics are now equipped to avail themselves of the federal grants is shown by the fact that in the fiscal year 1o21-22 approximately o3.6 per cent of the funds were used by the states under the conditions of accept ance. In the year 1o17-I8, the first year of the act, only 5o9o of the avail able funds could be used.
 The total amount expended by all the states under state plans provided in the vocational educational act, for the fiscal year Io2I-22, was $IA77o,- I42.65, of which only $3,854,57o.25 rep resented federal grants. Thus, instead of merely equaling the federal appro- priation, state and local school boards matched nearly three dollars against every federal dollar received.
 This great development in voca- tional education has not been accom- plished at the expense of standards, as the trend is consistently toward higher and more practical standard of instruction, year by year.

ANARCHY IN WEST VIRGINIA
 AFFECTS ENTIRE COUNTRY

courts, elect and control public off, cers, run the elections and do as they please.
 Deputy sheriffs in Logan county are not paid out of county funds, but with money donated to the sheriff by coal companies and coal operators. In 1920 these coal operators furnished the sheriff of Logan county $g6,63o for the payment of deputy sheriffs, and in 1921, $6I,5I7.
 Coal companies do not hire armed guards for the protection of company property, but for the elimination of union miners and union organizers.
 Armed guards and deputy sheriffs arrest union members with or without reason and throw them in jail at Logan, where many of them have been brutally rnistreated. Union men have been killed while thus held pris- oners in the jail. Men are arrested and jailed for no reason except that they are union members or are found giving encouragement to the unlon."
 The United Mine Workers state that this list of wrongs could be heightened by the recital "of almost unbelievable atrocities"
 "We do not feel that it is neces- Sdry, the statement continues, to Qo more than call the attention of the commission to the situation and that the commission itself will realize that something must be done. in Logan county and certain other counties in West Virginia, if the coal industry is to be established and placed on the level where 1t should be-"
 The commission is reminded that these conditions cannot be hemmed in by the boundary lines of West Vir- ginia, but that they effect the entire coal industry.
 In support of their claims, the com mission is referred to evidence se-. cured by the United States senate committee on education and labor.
The Connecticut labor news., 1923-01-05

Washington, Jan 5.-The United
 Mine Workers have asked President Harding's coal fact-hnding commis- sion to investigate conditions in cer- tain sections of West Virginia. Es- pecial attention is called to Logan county, because it is typical of others and glaring example of the manner in which brutality and oppression against union coal miners is prac ticed"
 Among the indictments against that country and anti-union coal owners
 therein, Is the charge that the employ ment of union miners IS not tolerated.
 Miners who join the union are driven from the county, and union organiz
 CTS, if known, are not permitted to enter that section.
 Representative of the union are not permitted to hold meetings in Logan county for the purpose of in ducing miners, by peaceable and or derly methods, to join the union," it IS stated.
 Coal companies maintain an army of armed guards in the Logan county fields whose principal busipess 1t IS to keep the union out by whatever means they can employ. It Is a com mon practice for these armed guards to assault and otherwise mlstreat union members and men who wish to join the union. In other words, 1t IS the business of these guards, armed with high-powered rifles, revolvers and blackjacks, to eliminate union men. And for many years past this process of elimination has left a bloody trail all over Logan county. "The constitutional right of free speech and free assembly does not exist in Logan county, where these armed thugs hold sway.
 "None of these armed guards are ever punished under the law for the crimes they commit against coal min CTS and members of their families, be- cause coal companies dominate the

Defective Equipment
 Blamed for Rail Wreck

Minneapolis, Jan. 5-Sharp fanges on an engine, and not an open switch, caused the wreck at Andover, last No vember, train service men declare. The wreck resulted in the death of a fireman and a brakeman.
 Instead of taking the engine out of service, the railroad men claim 1t was sent out on the ill-fated train that jumped the track.
 Sharp hanges on engine and car wheels are a deadly menace to the lives of train crews and passengers, veteran train service men point out. When the fanges are sharp instead of rounded there is always danger that the engine or car with the defect will "climb the rail' and wreck the train.
 Such derailment usually takes place at switches, thus giving the railroads opportunity in strike times to raise the cry of ''tampered switches" This permits the railroads to cast suspic- ion on the strikers and conceal their dangerous equipment.
