ADMINISTRATION
ACCEPTS BORAH'S
RUHR CHALLENGE
Official Gives Reasons fol
u, S, Role as Benevolent
ByStander.'

By United Net1S
WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.-To Sena-
tor Borah, who has demanded to know
why Secretary Of State Hughes does
not protest against Frances invasion
Of the Ruhr, an authorized A~dministra-
ton official makes this reply:
France would Immediately say to
us, You wouldn't enter the anti-ag-
gression pact to guarantee Us against
attack by Germany; you wouldn't
ratify the treaty Of Vervailles, or en-
ter the League Of Nations. and you
insist on collecting the war debts
which we regard as a factor in any
settlement And what could we say
to >that?"
Thus the Harding Administration
has accepted the challenge of the lr-
r%econcilable leader and shows itself
willing to debate the question il the
Senate insists. A high official, who Is
In a position to speak knowingly, out
lined the Administrations reasons for
adopting the role of benevolent by
stander" in a press conference Tues
day following publication of Senator
Borah's criticism.
Borah had said that the present
state of affairs in Europe was fore
seen months ago and that the Ad-
mintstration should have called a con-
ference to forestall the present crisis,
add having failed to do that, it should
now protest the course of France and
follow this up with some effort to
bring about a settlement.
In reply, the Administration spokes-
man asserted that the European pow
ers were trying to arrange a confer
enCe from August until January 2, but
Belgium, who was to issue the invi-
tations, was unable to obtain assur-
ances that the conferences would be
successful, and hesitated to enter any
discussion which promised to be as
futile as the Genoa and Hague gath
eringS.

CONFERENCE SETS
MINE WAGE SCALE
Workers and Operators Reach
Final Agreement,

By United Press
NEW YORK. Jan. PA confer
ence OF bituminous miners and oper-
ators meeting at the Hotel Pennsyl-
vania today. agreed to extend for
one year from April 1, 1928, the ex-
listing wage scale.
Operators and miners from Ohio,
Indiana and Illinois were repre-
scented. 1t is understood that Penn
sylvania and West Virginia will come
in later on the same terms.
The agreement reached today re-
affirmed the existing wage scale In
all it's terms, provisions and condi-
tons. 1t was also resolved to meet
again Jan. 8, 1924, to agree to a scale
for the succeeding year.
The delegates desired that a copy
of the agreement be sent to President
Harding, Attorney General Daugh-
erty and the United States coal com
missioner.
The old wage scale which was re-
newed today calls for a basic wage
of $1.0S for tonnage men and a mini
mum Of $3.50 a day,
The renewal is considered by the
miners as a decided victory for them,
inasmuch as the operators first stood
out for IN increase of penalties for
breach of contract.

HOG PRICE SLIDES
TO So AS RESULT
OF BIG RECEIPTS
Paying Better Prices
in Indianapolis Than
Other Markets,

Shippers and farmers drove their
hogs to a falling market at h local
live stock exchange today. Mondays
top price for extra choice light hogs
OF $3.50 has slid down to the 50 mark
with continued easiness evident in the
days buying. Shippers were gath
cred in groups in the stock yards dis
GUESSING the decline, which was largely
attributed to heavy receipts and an
overstocked outside market.
Wholly Speculative
The hog market has proven wholly
speculative for the past five days.
Last Friday lights were selling at 50
for a top price. On Saturday the
market crept up to $3.50 and over
Sunday went to $3.50 ON the opening
Monday and maintained a steady tone
throughout the day, but on Tuesday
slumped to S9.35 and down to tho
round mark today.
Shippers and traders alike have
commented upon the independence Of
the Indianapolis market when con
sidered in the light Of prices paid on
other large exchanges. Packing In
terests have been buying heavily here
and paying from ten to twenty-five
cents more than the Chicago and other
markets afforded, due largely. traders
say, to the fact that the hogs marketed
here are Of much better grade than
those received on some other ex-
changes.
Feeders Gratifled
Such manifestation Of confidence in
Indiana feeders was q source OF graft
ficatlon to Indiana farmers who have
been feeders Of frst-class stock but
who only recently have received
recognition.
The cattle and calf markets have
been subject to fluctuations during
this period but have managed to dis
play a general hrmness which would
indicate the market could be expected
to rule fairly steady. traders assert,
The lamb market has |1uctuated
somewhat, a premium being paid for
fed Western lambs. quite a large num-
Der Of which have recently been re-
cetved here.
