 Emergency Report,
 In the meantime, if the reports received daily from Atlantic city shall lead the commission to the cou- clusion that an emergency report Is necessary, the same will be promptly made"
 Owing to the shortness of time in which the contending parties have to reach an agreement, members of the coal commission expressed the be- lief that an effort would be made to agree upon all other contested points before again taking up the check off system-now believed to be the chief obstacle to a settlement,
 Officials here feel hopeful that a settlement will occur at Atlantic City.
 Tt is always a good sign to see the disputing parties get together again in an effort to reach agree ment" Secretary Hoover commented.
 He denied that he had received any kind of assurance that a settlement will now be reached. However, Hoover has seen two gigantic strikes from the inside-the coal and rail walkouts last year-and his hopeful ness is encouraging.

GERMAN PATRON SAINT,

Germans throughout the world, whether on this side of the Atlantic or the other, do homage to St. Boni face. the patron saint of the father land.
 St. Boniface was an Englishman by birth. He was born in Croditon, Dew onsire, in the year 6S0. In his youth he came under the influence of the Christian missionaries and en- tered the monastery of EKminster, where he was trained for the apos- tolic work which made his name inn mortal. His first labors as mission ary were in Holland, bug the hard- hearted pagan ancestors of the mod ern Dutchman refused to receive the saint or his gospel. Boniface then went to Romc to receive the blessing of the pope on his mission and re- turned with authority to preach to the German tribes.
 It was slow and dangerous task which Boniface set for himself, and hardly a day went past without its perils. Boniface and hib converts were especially subjected to the unwelcome attentions of bands of robbers, who considered the hated Christians fair prey. With unflagging courage Boni- face made his way through Bavaria, Thuringia. Friesland Hessee and his trail WIS marked by churches, which were usually built on the site of Idol temples which had been de- stToye6 by :he saint.

EUROPE IS GIVEN Definite Upturn In WRONG VIEW OF Stocks Takes Place COOLIDGE POLICY After Long Reaction

NEW YORK, August 1S-A definite upturn in stock prices after five months reactionary trend with oc- casional technical rallies was the out standing feature of this weeks finan- cial and commodity markets. While expert opinion is still divided as to whether the rally will be long main tained. the resumption of pool opera tions in leading industrial shares were regarded as constructive fac tors.
 The buying movement has been based on a series of favorable dom estic developments including the announcement of President Coolidge's politicies; the assurance that no eX- tra session of Congress was com templated, thus removing the possi- bilities of hostile legislation; the con tinuation of record car loadings and the improved outlook or trade and industry revealed by various trade reviews. The Mexican agreement with it's prospect of early recogni- tion Of that country also had beneficial effect. While the publica- tion of the British reparatlons note, the overthrow of the Cuno ministry and numerous outbreaks In Germany have been largely responsible for the drop of French francs to the lowest levels in all time, hope is still held out in the financial district that some solution of the reparations problem will be forthcoming in the not far distant future.

 Long TO Aid Europe.
 Higher offici IS of the government nave watched this repeated phenone- non wit. keen sympathy They know fully the seriousness of the situation in Europe and long help. ut they feel that in the emu, nothing could be settled by one-sided in feren and they feel that in the end, nothing would be settled by one-sided inter- ference md they feel that it is bet ter to cause disappointment in l. rope now than to leave resentment after ward. Hence, they are instantly forced to explain, for every express sion of sympthy for Europe is seized upon as an Indication that America is about to come forward and abandon her isolation,
 The statement that the policy of the United states toward Europe will be what it has been during the Har- ding administration stands with all of the force that the highest off cials of the government can give.
 MT Coolidge has now ended the first week at his desk In the Presi- dents study of the White House. Pressing Problems.
 The two most pressing questions engaging his attention are;
 l. The threat of an anthracite strike.
 ?. The possible necessity of the United States taking drastic action in Cuba to protect American in- terests and restore stable conditions In the Island republic.
 While the first week of Mir. Cool idge's active work as President has ended with an accumulation of un- settled problems at the White House, the second week may bring the first big accomplishment of the Coolidge administrations settlement with Mexico.
 This settlement is expected to be announced soon after the arrival here Monday of the American com missioners in the negotiations with the southern republic, Charles 5, Warren and John Barton Payne.
 While those close to President Coolidge declare that he will employ moral suasion" as far ae possible to prevent an anthracite strike, they add that the President is determined that the country shall not suffer the hardships of a coal strike this winter and that he will act accordingly when the time comes.
 The Cuban situation is increasing in seriousness. Secretary of State Hughes again conferred with MT Coolidge at the White House today and it is assumed they discussed this question.
 If a satisfactory settlement is not arrived at soon the crisis that has arisen over cuba's restoration of the lottery in violation of her agreement with the United States that the pro posed Cuban measure eonsohdatlhs railroads which would abolish eet- tain private American ports in Cuba, il is believed likely here that the Eovernment. will dispatch an ulti- matum to Cuba or even take some steps towards intervention under the

 There are a few rough spots, moles and wrinkles that mar the inherent beauty of St. Paul, the mayor says and he wants these touched up in the latest approved fashion-and the latest approved fashion must be a permanent cure or it isn't approved, the mayor added
 The blemishes the mayor is aiming Ut particularly are gaps in curbs and sidewalks in populated districts, and similar eyesores. Sidewalks and curbs should be continuous, but in many places the owners of vacant property have not put them in, al. though their neighhors have them, The mayor wants Commi issioner Jeter to have his city planning engineers make a complete survey of the city to spot all such blemishes and pre- pare orders for the completion of un- finished work of this nature.
