rived tonight and the respective of
fetal spokesman, by agreement, de-
-clined to discuss the situation in adj
vance of the parleys. Tomorrow
morning there will be separate in
formal conferences and the joint
meeting, behind closed doors, will be
called at 3 P. NJ. at the Union League
Club. 1t was indicated that the first
meeting would be brief and that the
conference would not get down to
actual business until Wednesday.
Notwithstanding the absence of
formal statements from the two
groups it was evident to observers
that the feeling was not as tense as
it has been. The principal basis for
hope of a settlement was the state
ment issued on Sunday by William
Green, president of the American
Federation of Labor, that the strike
would be settled within ten days.
Before he became head of organ
lied labor. Mr.. Green was for many
years secretary treasurer of the
United Mine Workers of America
and he is conversant with details of
the controversy. He was intimately
associated with John L. Lewis, head
of the miners, and it was Mr.. Lewis
who placed Mr.. Green in nomination
as president Of the federation.
During the last convention of the
federation at Atlantic City, when
labor voted unanimously to support
the miners in their strike, Mr.. Green
declared that the mines would be
as silent as King Tuts tomb" before
the miners yielded in their demands.
His statement on Sunday, therefore,
was regarded as significant.
Mr.. Green is expected here on
"Wednesday to address the American
Association for Labor Legislation,
but he will not take part in the par
leys, so far as is known. He would
be easily accessible for conference
with Mr.. Lewis and his associates.
however, should such a course be
deemed necessary.
1t was generally conceded that one
of the first things to be discussed
would be the offer made by the OPP
orators last Saturday for the miners
to return to their work at once at
the scale of wages fixed in the con-
tract that expired on August 81. The
operators. in declaring that 1.-THE door
was OPEN. offered to pay these wag-
es for the next eight months. pend
ing the drawing up of new con-
tract. This new contract, the OPP
orators proposed, must be for a long
term, and must provide way TO
bring out all the facts, prevent sus-
pension and adjust wages"
The operators flooded the hard coal
fields with advertisements and clrcu-
lars detailing their proposal. Union
officials, in reply, announced that the
miners "would not be stampedeo
hack to work"

among the nations which at the close
of the first quarter of the new GEN.
tury are bearing fruit abundantly.
Mr.. Garfield listed as 'the fruits
of his efforts" the conference for in
ternational control of trade in arms.
the commissions and conferences on
welfare of women and children and
on public health. the treaties nego-
tiated at Locarno and what he term
ed the favorable attitude of the Unit

Woodrow Wilson laid the founda-

dent of the Woodrow Wilson Foun-
dation, for a new and better order
in world affairs" His influence in
demonstrating a shattered world
and establishing peace" has been ex-
emplified by such achievements as
the restoration of Austria and Hun

the prevention of war between
Greece and Bulgaria.
Mr.. Davis said these accomplish

0. ]. Giguere Gives
Pleasing Travel
Talk to KiWanians

". y. Glguere, speaking at the reg
ular meeting of the Waterville XII
wants club at the Elmwood hotel last
evening, told in an interesting way
OF his recent trip abroad and of his
observations of the various countries
through which he travelled.
In part Mr.. Giguere said: at would
be next to impossible to attempt to
relate in detail or to describe fully
ones impressions abroad, especially
when one happens to be a resident of
the good old U. s. A., for the customs
and the habits of the people differ SO
materially from our own that the
contrast is striking and one is led
Immediately to make mental note
of the difference.
I'm Italy the difference Is even
more marked than in other European
countries, but here are found many
features of historical and geographic
interest. Rome is, in my opin-
ion, the most captivating of European
cities. The party of which I was a
member was very fortunate in being
granted an audience with the Pope.
The Vatican and it's neighboring
buildings is a study in itself. The
vast grounds and the impressive
structures are really in a class by
themselves, dilHOuSn the ensemble
bespeaks Medievalfsm.
Leaving Italy we entered France,
France the little republic which was
SO sadly and so tremendously devas-
tated during the World war. AT
Nice we visited Monte Carlo. the
scene of merriment both night and
day, where fortunes are made and
lost every hour. - Theatres are of
two classes. While in some of the
most exclusive and refined theatres
ladies come attired in evening gowns
and wraps and the men in full dress
suits, you will enter another theatre,
apparently of a similar character,
where the men and women are per-
mitted to smoke. -
"At Versailles we visited the Pal
ace of Versailles, where the Peace
Treaty was signed. The palace can
be briefly described as magnificent.
1t is surrounded by beautiful parks
and fountains and its chapel is con-
sidered the most elegant in the
world. The party also gained audi
ence with the president of France,
NJ. Dumergue.

Jail Sentence
To Death Racers

San Francisco, Dec. 2S-(AP)-
Contra Costa county, California. has a
new ordinance designed to take much
of the joy out of beating the train to
the crossing.
1t used to be simply a race with
death in which the undertaken won if
the train got there first and the driv
er's only reward was perhaps en-
HANGED respect for his make of car If
it proved faster than the locomotive.
Now the situation is changed. If
the engine passes the finish line first
or the race is a tie the award still will
be to the undertaken but if the auto
list wins he will receive as a Especial
recognition distinguishing him from
the less daring highway user, jail
sentence.
The new ordinance makes 1t mis-
demeanor to cross in front of train
after n wigwag or automatic signal
has sounded the trains approach.
