 Especially.

rrhans, Ill., Sept. Is R--A challenge to University of Illinois officials to show that they are not hareoring what he styled as sub sidized vice" was thrown down in the state federation Of labor conven- ton today by Erwin R. Wright of Chicago, former state president.
 Mir. Wright printed R lurid pie ture of fraternity house immoral ity"
 Better burn universities to the ground" he said, than pay them money if our sons and daughters att tend them to learn immortality"
 On his motion the convention unanimously extended an ivitation to the university to send spokesmen to defend the charges against it.
 My attention to university moral ity," Mir, Wright said, was pro- Noked by recent magazine and book literature, some of it by college of- ficials. and I have found evidence to support the reports in some places. I have been told of a fraternity house which was completely covered with canvas shield, while inside 2 drunken orgy took place, which even sayases would not have toler- ated.

New York, Sept. 16-In it's week ly hardware market summary Hard ware Age will say tomorrow;
 Fall business predictions are uni formly encouraging in all the i'm portant hardware market centers. In the middle and northwestern sec tions dealers are reported to be buying more freely, whereas in the cast there is brisk pickup trade due 10 light stocks and spotty con- sumer demand. Very favorable az ricultural conditions are said to be helping the middle and northwest ern areas to such an extent that col lections among rural dealers have materially improved.
 Plural and suburban retailers continue to send in better sales re- ports than those merchants who are located in the cities and larger towns. With the possible exception o. the territory served by Pitts burgh, employment conditions gen erally are considered more favora- hle.

MOTORS REPLACING
 MULES IN MINES
Operators Try New Equipment
 During Shutdown Period

Hazleton Pa. Sept 16 R--Many mules in the Lehigh coal field are likely to find themselves "out of jobs when work Is resumed at the anthracite mines.
 While the colieries are idle a number of the big operators. with permission of the United Mine Workers, are extending the use of electric power in their slopes with the result that fewer mules will be needed than heretofore after a settle ment is reached with the union.
 Most of this work is going on at mines of the Lehigh Coal and Navi- gation Co. in the Panther Creek val ley. Year by year electric power is giving the mule a merry chase for his place and it is predicted that in time the animals will be employed only In such portions of the collieries where it is impossible to run wires or where conditions are so gaseous that it would not be safe to intro- duce the trolley.
 Displacement of the mules will not cause any material reduction In the ! number of employees, for the drivers will be given places as motor run. ners and their assistants will get po- sitions as "patchers, or helpers. or ficials of coal companies say that electricity has proven & big money saver.
 Ignorant of their proba bic fate, the mules are enjoying the vacation the suspension has brought them. They are about accustomed to their new surroundings in the corrals near the collieres or on farms and appar- cntly delight to bask in the sun- shine. They are very lively and fre- quently cut up pranks among one another that delight the crowds which go 10 see them.

MONEY PROBE NOW

Quality Of Currency Is to Be
 Given Study

Washington, Sept, Is Rl-Tha treasury. through a special commit tee headed by Assistant Secretary Dewey. today began an investigation ot the federal currency which may lead to far-reaching changes in the system Of production, design and dis tribution of paper money.
 Findings of previous inquiries have proved useless, MT. Dewey said. and he added that if anything were to be gained the study must be worked out with due regard for anticipated growth Of the nation and its industrial and financial enter prises,
 Groups Of the committee will ad- dress themselves to design and se- curlty, paper quality and stock, manufacture, including a thorough study of the bureau Of engraving and printing methods. legal question and distribution. The committee in- cludes membership of IS, some of whom are private bankers and stu dents of the currency.
 Mr. Dewey said little headway had been made by the government in the last six or eight years in efforts 10 overcome problems with which the currency situation is fraught calling particular attention to the failure of efforts to increase the circulation of silver dollars,
 The cost of paper currency cir culation to the government has been constantly increasing since the mid de of the World war. It now is one of the big items of "dead expense" the average being above one cent for each dollar bill that Is printed. and irasmuch as circulation has expand ed by more than 40 million dollars in the last six months, the ever growing expense item is proving cause for considerable worry.
 Early last winter plans were laid by the treasury to produce dollar bills at rate that would permit the establishment of a reserve sufficient flo last one month. By keeping one month ahead of the demand ex- perts said the new money would be allowed to "cure' and the treasury had hoped that this process would rest the life of the bill, which had rapidly shortened from an aver age of ii to six months.

Convince That United States Has An Important Role in
 Chinese Situation

Moscow, Russia, Sept. 16 (P-The policy of the United States towards China is not clear in many respects but she is playing a most important role there, the American correspon- dents In Moscow were told today by Lew Miailovitch karahan, soviet ambassador to China. in a wo-hour interview.
 M Ksrakhan welcomed the marked change" in the attitude of the American government and press toward events in China, and added:
 If 1t were not for England, whom America is compelled to support to certain etxent in order to prevent an Anglo-Japanese alliance oyer China, Americas attitude would be morefavorable, while on the other hand the British warlike attitude to- ward Canton (the southern ogvern- nent, at Canton) has partly cooled down, thanks to the United States policy"
 The ambassador was pessimistic regarding the coming tariff confer ence, provided for in the Washing ton treaty, saying he thought noth- ing but complete tariff autonomy would satisfy the Chinese. Russia will not participate fin the conference or make any proposals because she did not adhere to the decisions of the Washington conference.
 NJ. Karakhan considers the situa- ton in China gloomy one and be- lieves there will be fresh outbreak of civil strife next spring, General Feng Yu-Hsiang Ghe Christian generally and Wu Pei-Fu are gath cring their forces, he said.

 Vancouver, D. C., Sept. l6 Rl-Be- lief that "Hardings dying wish for the entrance Of the United States into the world court will be grati- fed was expressed by Senator Frank E. Willis of Ohio, at the un- yelling of the Harding International good will memorial today.
 The committee of foreign rela- tions of the United States senate will. at the forthcoming session of congress, report i'll favor of en- trance into the world court under the plan proposed by President Harding. Secretary of State Hughes and Pres ident Coolidge, and the senate will by substantial and sufficient ma jority, ratify this action.' Senator Willis said.
 The monument was erected by the Kiwanis International in Stanley park, where the late president spoke while en route to Alaska in 1923. Senator Willis represented the United States and Dr. J. II, King of Ottawa, minister of public works for Canada, represented the Dominion.
 The design of the memorial Is semi circular with an elevated center containing bronze tablet with Harding's profile in bas relief and an excerpt of his Canadian address. In the center two bronze female figures symbolizc Canada and the United States on guard over the man and the words of international amity he uttered there in July, 1928.
 "Citizens of the United States and Canadians all realize that the con- ception of peace written in the hearts and minds of all North Americans is the best guarantee of perpetual peace and good under standing between us" said Senator Willis. What the rest of the world has achieved by machinery, Canada and the United States have already achieved. Our two countries do not have much international machinery. but we do have and always will have peace. War or serious misunder- standings between our peoples is im- possible, unthinka ble.
 Peace Is a state of mind, not machine made entity. War can be abolished only by determination of peoples to have peace. Wars can not be wiped out by pronuncimentos any more than fire can be abolished by resolutions. Canada and the United States are unique in'their re- lations. History shows no like eX- ample of two countries absolutely independent of each other, which work together for their mutual good as do these two countries"
