ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Aug.
5.-Intervention by an outside
agency was held today to be the
only hope of averting a. strike
Of $4,000 men. or a suspension
Of mining, in the hard coal fields
September I.
The Hbreak" in the anthracite
operators-miners wage conference
has come. Negotiations are def
nitely off for the time being at
least. After wrangling since
July 9 the conferees were unable
to get anywhere. The operators
not only declined the demands of
the miners for wage increases,
but demanded reductions.
"There was no hope of agree
ment," said John L. Lewis, presi-
dent of the United Mine Workers
Of America. sit was useless to
continue the meetings"
Way Is Left Open
The way was left open, however,
for renewal of the meetings.
although both sides today expressed
the opinion that resumption OF
negotiations are not likely.
What agency, If any, will inter.
vene in the situation was ques-
ton arousing much comment among
observers.
There was some hope, especially
among the operators, that President
Coolidge might take some action.
But there have been reports that
the President does not want to In
tect himself into the controversy.
Clifford Pinchot, governor of Penn.
gylvania, has been mentioned as
a possible mediator.
PincI1ot said to international
News Service over long distance
telephone from Milford, Pa. where
he is yacationing, that he has moth
ing to say Eat this time" regarding
the coal crisis.
Demands An Rejected.
The break" between the oper-
ators and miners is not necessarily
final.
The words subject to call of
either side by the chairman" in the
adoption Of the adjournment motion
last night leaves the door open for
resumption Of negotiations.
The operators turned down prac.
tically all of the miners demands.
These demands included 10 per
cent increase for contract miners,
81 a day increase for Iaborers. the
adoption ~of the check-off system,
and an eight-hour day for a five
day week.
A strike order, IL issued by Lewis,
would affect 154, 900 miners.

New Sixteenth Street Light
System Ready October 4.
EIdridge Plans Education

Strict regulation Of pedestrian
traffic on Sixteenth street will
follow installation Of the traffic
light system, which is expected
to be completed about October 1,
it was announced today by Director
of Traffic M. o. Eldridge.
Construction Of the light boxes
has been completed, except for
the clamps by means Of which
they will be attached to the poles.
Final design Of these clamps will
be completed this week.
Construction Of the electric light
poles upon which the traffic lights
will be. mounted has already been
started by the District electrical
engineers office.
To Educate Public
Before the lights are installed, a
public campaign to educate motor
lists and pedestrians will be under
taken by the traffic department,
through the newspapers and by
means of lantern slides in all mo-
ton picture theaters, according to
plans now under consideration.
Efforts will be made to arouse
public opinion to demand ironclad
enforcement of the "jaywalking"
regulation, Director Eldridge plans.
Policemen at the intersections will
be instructed to send jaywalkers
back to the curbs.
In cities where the pedestrian
traffic is controlled by traffic
lights, the system OF compelling
jay walkers to return to the curbs
has proved very effective, Director
Eldridge said. The delighted guf.
flaws of the wiser citizens who re.
main on the curbs until they get
the green light signal to go is one

experience has proved, he said.
Plans for the time systems to he
adopted for the Sixteenth street
lights are being considered. Dir.
ferent time ratios will be used for
the lights at various times of the
day, depending upon the volume of
traffic.
Ratio Not Determine
During the rush hours, it is
probable that the ratio will be
about three to one; that is, traffic
on Sixteenth street will move for
two minutes and then cross traffic
will move for forty seconds.
During the day, lower ratios will
be used, probably as low as one
and-a-half to one or two to one.
The traffic lights will not project
over the streets, but will be en-.
tirely behind the curb line, it was
stated. The poles upon which they
will hang will be placed thirty
inches behind the curb line and the
front edge of the light box will be
directly over the curb.

Co-operatives Endeavors
Raise Basic Price Levels
Analysis of Results In Egg and Poul-
try Market Throws Light on New
Selling System

The Minnesota Farm Bureau calls
attention to fact which students of
the cooperative marketing move
ment have observed in the accomplish
ments of various co-operatives, viz
That cooperative marketing newt
ably tends to raising the basic price
level of a product.
Illustrating this statement, the re-
cord of the Minnesota Cooperative
Egg & Poultry Exchange is cited.
The Exchange reports, for ex-
ample, that the Minneapolis egg
market has been to 3 cents closer
to the Chicago market during April
and May in 1925 than it was for the
same months in 1924, before the Ex-
change began operating. This means
that country prices paid throughout
the state have been generally higher
and have been benefit to all farm
ers whether members actually mar
keting through the Exchange or sell
ling through private dealers. Some
farmer patrons in the Thief River
valley and other districts report re-
ceiving II cents per dozen more in
May this year than they received last
year while the central market differ
entail between the two seasons was
approximately 51a cents. This
means that the basic price level has
been increased to these farmers 5
to cents per dozen.
Cooperative marketing of eggs and
poultry is steadily growing in the
state. During the past ten months
the Exchange has marketed for its
various units $1,570,975. Oh worth
of eggs and poultry. Of this sum
81, 135, 276.56 was for eggs, $314,-
461.43 for live poultry and $121,-
237.04 for dressed poultry. The
volume of eggs handled was approx
imately 800 carloads, the larger per-
centage of which was marketed since
the first of the year when 222 cars
were sold, "a of which went through
in May. This was the Exchanges
largest months business.
The rapid and continued growth of
the Exchange has been due to it's
showing Of results. From one local
association in operation a year ago
last September, it has grown till now
II large district associations are in
operation with six others in process
of organization. When these begin
functioning nearly all the farmers of
minnesota will have an opportunity
to market their eggs and poultry CO.
operatively, as practically all territory
in the state will then be served by
an association. In addition the Min
nesota Exchange is serving as the
selling agency for the Missouri and
South Dakota associations.
The Exchange is now establishing
concentration, feeding and dressing
plant at La Crosse, Wis, which it, is
believed will put it in position to
market eggs and poultry to still bet
ter advantage.

ST. PAUL LETTER

st. Paul, Minnesota, June 80
Especial Correspendence) Contract
for the construction of glass fac
tory as an adjunct of the St. Paul
Ford plant, and which will ultimately
entail an outlay of $4,000,000.00 has
been let to H. C. Struchen, St. Paul
contractor, according to glad tidings
relayed northwestward from Detroit.
Thus will st. Paul become the glass
supply center of all Ford assembling
plants west of Detroit.
In addition to the installation of one
or more glass furnaces in the crane
way of the main high dam building,
award of the contract means:
% Construction of a manufac-
turing plant for making special gases
used in the manufacture of glass;
(2) Utilization of the fleet of
Great Lakes boats recently purchased
by Henry Ford to carry the great
quantities of coal necessary in the
production of gases;
60 Fufillment of the Ford pro-
gram to make use of all raw materials
adjacent to factories and particularly
of plans announced to transform tons
ands of sheets of glass for auto4no-
bile windows and windShields;
(4) Possible sale of coke, by-pro-
duct of the gas plant, throughout the
Northwest on the same basis as Ford
coal has ben handled through the
retail automobile dealers.
From these various items it will be
noted that the glass factory afore-
said means much to the Northwest.
Interesting information still to come
includes answers to the questions of
how many men will be employed in
the new industry and what Mr.. Ford
will do next on his st. Paul site.
O.
Minnesota's reorganized and simpli-
fed government will be in effect by
the time this is in print.
In other words, Henry Rines, state
treasurer, will have become state
comptroller; E. w. Stark, member Of
the state securities commission will
have become state treasurer; A. j.
Peterson, Dawson, Minnesota, banker,
will have become director of the
budget, and H. w. Austin, city pur-
chasing agent of ST. Paul will have
taken on the more stylish title Of
director of purchases for the state of
Minnesota.
Among the jobs that are being blot
ted off the payroll under the new
system are that Of public examiner,
board of audit, forestry board, fire
marshal, colonization commission,
bonus board, horseshoers' eXamina-
ton board, statute compilation COM
of apiaries, and hotel Inspector.
Other positions are being merged
until it will be difficult to recognize
the old place.
The new machine is being CREASED
so that there will be the minimum
number of squeaks and the conse-
quent maximum of service and saw
ing to the taxpayer.
