SOFT COAL MINERS
WAIT ON CONTRACT
Union Men Are Seeking Pro-
posaI to Supplant Pres
ent Agreement.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, January 4.-Enion btu
ninous coal miners here to confer
with operators on a national wage
and working rules agreement to re-
place that expiring March 81 today
waited for a tentative proposal from
the operators on the method of max
ing contracts.
The operators last night appointed
committee of seven to draw up
plan for presentation to them today
at their session, called one hour in
advance of the joint conference.
Indications were that the commit
tee would propose a method of pro-
cedure differing from any discussed in
the two previous meetings of operat-
oSs and miners here. Operators said
they drew this conclusion from state
ments made by John l.. Lewis, presi-
dent of the miners, that district plans
of settlement. sliding wage scale
and arbitration would not be accept
able to his organization.
Several operators ventured the
opinion that the conference would de-
eide 10 return to the old central COM
petitive field as a basis for negotiat-
ing, with contracts extending the
present agreement for one year.
Both miners and operators admit
ted that their desire to reach an
agreement was stimulated by the at
titude of President Harding's fact
nnding commission on the meetings.
1t was reported that any agreement
reached would be submitted to repre-
sentatlves of the government for ap-
proyal.

PHILADELPHIA, January 4.-The

ker Thompson restraining the COL
lector of internal revenue of Della
ware from levying on the property
OF Alfred /. du Pont to force the pay
ment of additional taxes of s1,576.o15
by Dupont for the year 1915
The court of appeals also approved
the ruling of Judge Thompson that
the collector OF internal revenue NAV
ME a law suit for recovery of the
taxes.
The collector sought to compel du
Pont to pay the taxes on a zoo per
cent stock dividend of $26,24S,065 he
received as a stockholder when the
u. /. du Pont de Nemours Powder
company, the New Jersey corpora
tion, transferred it's affairs In 1917 to
L. /. du Pont de Nemours Company,
the Delaware corporation. When the
collector assessed the tax more than
tive years had elapsed since the dfyI-
dend was declared. and du Pont
maintained the government had lost
the right to collect the taxes. On his
refusal to pay the collector notified
du Pont that his property in Della
ware would be sold for the payment
of the taxes.

NEW TYPE OF RIM is
INVENTED BY ATLANTA
MANA. L. FOUCHE

ATLANTA, A patent has Just
been issued to Alfred L. Fouche an
Atlanta man, on the invention of a new
type of demountable automobile rim.
This new rim has no joints and is
constructed that tires can be chang
ed without the use OF tools.
Durability simplicity and ability to
withstand harder bumps and jolts than
i'ointed rims, are features claimed for
this new device by its inventor. The
principle of its construction allows the
use of either straight side or clincher
type tires, regardless of size. It's ap-
pearance on the rim is exactly the
same as the conventional type rim, and
II is interchangeable with all type rims
now being manufactured
A model OF this new rim has been
thoroughly tested out with excellent
results. Mr.. Fouche has not closed a
contract for its manufacture though he
has received several offers. The retail
price will be about the same as any
good rim, according to his estimate.
