alien property seized by the Amer
lean government during the war
should be held as security for the
payment Of claims Of American cit
liens against the former enemy coun-
tries found expression yesterday in
majority and minority reports filed in
the House.
The majority report declared that
until Germany, Austria and Hungary
made suitable provision" for salts
flying the claims Of Americans for
damages growing out of the war the
committee was not warranted in
recommending the return of greater
amount of the alien property held
by the United States than the S10.-
900 of each trust proposed in the
administration bill. This measure. was
favorably reported today to the
House.
On the other hand. the minority

I Given o. K.

Reorganization of the State Depart
ment, consolidating the diploma ii C

OF business efficiency to meet new
commercial problems dominant in in
ternational relations, taking the for
eign service out of the hands of a few
wealthy people and making it a self
supporting field of endeavor for am
bilious young Americans, was ap-
proved by the House yesterday.
This reorganization is covered in
the administration bill fathered by

single revised salary scale would be
inaugurated and extra allowances
would be authorized for representa-
tives of the United States at foreign
capitals. the purpose being to elini-
nate the possession of large private
means as an essential qualifica ton
for appointment.
Increased compensation would be
given many consular and diplomatic
officers below the grade of minister
and the civil service retirement act
would be extended to the foreign
service.
Representatives Black and Blanton

against the measure, Mr.. Blanton OBJ
Jecting to the added expense which he
said its passage would entail, and Mr.

"Wait for No Leader"

Notwithstanding the declaration
against naturalization Of coal mines
recently announced by national off,
cials of the United Mine Workers of
America, some leaders Of that organ
ization will campaign to get the
union behind that policy, according
to statement made in an open
letter to John L. Lewis, national pres
ident, made public today by John
Brophy, a Pennsylvania district lead
er who signed it.
In his letter Mr. Brophy informed
Mr.. Lewis of his resignation as chair
man of the unions special committee

naturalization plans, notified him
that the committee was appealing
directly to the rank and file" for
support of the scheme and asserted
that workers desired its adoption and

The time has come for a united

Demand Made on Lewis.
Mr.. Lewis was asked further to
throw open union publications to
presentation of the plan, to take the
platform in its interest, and to put
it before the Federal Coal Commits
sion. The committee would carry on
the effort, he was told, without 'the
support you promised"
The plan which has led to the
controversy within the union pro-
poses the purchase of coal mines by
the government and their operation
by national council whose members
would be chosen from three groups

operations and the consuming public.

of this kind, increased activity will
be given to it and extensive plans
already have, been made. The army

eFs, six years; 11-forgery set out in
first count, seven years; 12@uttering
and publishing and passing as true
false and forged instruments, five
years.
The total would have made fifty
four years, but the saving word "cen-
currently" for the time of serving
sentence brought this down to eight.
In the municipal court, the sentence
of FIVE years was imposed on six
counts charging embezzlement of
funds from the Silverlake bank. Judge
Slater awaited the arrival Of the small
sad group in the dusk at six o'clock,
and with a mind made up. Anxious and
even jealous to guard the rights of
defendants in court and to surround
them in fact with the presumption of
innocence, Judge Slater, once convic-
tion is established, and the circum-
stances surrounding the offence and
the defendant known to him, proceeds
at once to the stern business of the
sentencing judge.
Five years in the state prison at
Waupun," pronounced Judge Slater,
'the first day of your confinement to
be solitary, and the sentences to run
concurrently on each count"
Sand" he added !. a moment later,
when he learned Of the sentence of
the circuit judge, ito run concurrent
" with the sentence imposed on sim
liar charges in the circuit court of
