CATHOLIC DENIES STORY BY WORLD
Prayer Books Etc., Need Not
 Have Union Label

Washington, Oct 23.-The Cath ollie national welfare conference, in a formal statement issued here to- day, denied a report that a ruling had been issued under which all prayer books and other articles used in Catholic church and institu- tons should bear the American trade union label. The Rev. John A. Ryan, director of the social ac- ton department of the conference, declared investigation into the ques- ton had not been completed The Rev. James H. Ryan, quoted in an article in the New York World as having written to Matthew Wol of the American Federation of Labor that Wolfs plea has been success ful,' was out of the city, but 1t was declared the denial was authorita tive.
 A statement by the Rev. John A. Ryan said:
 The statement in the New York World that the administrative com mittee of the National Catholic Wcl- fare conference has ruled that all prayer books and other religious

articles used in churches and insti- tutions under church control, or hereafter sold with the approval to oemmunicants of the church shall bear the labels of the American trades unions Is not true.
 "The question of the importation of prayer books and the question of the union label on prayer books were brought before the adminis- tratiye committee, but 1t took no action further than to order an in- yestigation of the facts which will then bo made public. The investi- gation Is now being conducted"
 It was pointed out that the re- port in the World said the action had been taken hy the administra- tive committee Of bishops of the Roman Catholic church In the United States. The statement of the welfare council said that the bishops in annual meeting gathered under the title Of the National Cath olic Welfare council and that the headquarters staff here was an ad- ministrative body for that organiza- ton,

Coolidge Upholds Sanctity of En.

Washington, Oct. 2s.-Preserya- ton of initiative and enterprise is the primary thing which we have to do in our country" President Coolidge today told the executive committee of the New York Busi- ness Mems Republican Association, who called at the White House.
 Freedom of initiative and enter- prise carries with 1t, the president said, an obligation upon every busi- ness establishment to give service" as well as goods to consumers.
 Declaring the economic system of the government Fundamentally sound," the president criticised those who emphasize "out of all due pro- portion" its abuses. Correction of these abuses, he held. lies in the hands of those administering com- merce and industry and only they, he added, can prevent the necessity of government intervention.
 Already they have made great advances in this direction" he con- tinued. Their sense of responsbiI- fly has made steady growth during the last two score of years. We no longer hear the expression of in- different attitude towards the rela- ton Of business to the people. The merchants and the manufacturers today are seeking to deliver some- thing besides their goods: and they are delivering 1t with pride. That new something is the sense of serv- ice 10 the community.
 These are the lines of real prog ress.

We need not fear that the American community will commit itself to such a policy It is the long expressed genius of the American people to build up, to con- struct.

BODY Of MINER IS
 TAKEN FROM SHAFT
Two More Men Missing in
 Kentucky Disaster

Madisonville, Ky, Oct. 2s.-Th, body of Paul Wheeler. 1s year old miner, was recovered from the Harr Coal company's mine today where gas and dust explosion last night cntombed at least fifteen miners Two more men are missing and be. lieved to have been buried under q fall Of slate. Fourteen entombed men escaped during the night.
 Madisonville, Ky, Oct. 2S.-Ef- forts of rescuers at the Hart coal corporations mine near here, were directed today toward search of the workings to determine whether any miners in addition to nine who were known 10 have escaped were trapped In the mine by an explosion last night
 The blast, caused, 1t is believed, by a windy" shot, occurred in shaft No. 9. 22O feet underground, shortly after the day force of 250 had left the mine. First reports were that only nine men were in the mine at the time. Of these, four escaped through an abando oned shaft and the others were uninjured and plans were being made early to- day for their removal from the mine. ta
 Reports persisted, however, that two or three additional miners were in the workings at the time of the blast and were unaccounted for. One report named Paul Wheeler, Thomas Chism and William Joyce, all white, as. the missing men.
 Witnesses declared the force of the blast threw Q pillar of flame 100 feet into the air from the mouth of the shaft. The tipple was partly wrecked and the cage damned in the shaft. This caused an accumu- lation of debris in the shaft and effcrts of rescuers to reach the five marooned under ground.
 The explosion prostrated high tension electric lines which crossed the mouth of the shaft, adding to the difficulty of rescue workers and throwing the place in darkness for an hour.
