sistance when they gained footing
at the gateway to Abd-el-Krim's terri
tory and the rebels only remaining
outlet to the Mediterranean. Spanish
troops are now within FIVE miles of
Abd-el-Krim's capital

COL. MITCHELL MAY
FACE COURT MARTIAL
u. S. Orders Probe Into Au-
thcnticity of Officers
Charges.

Washington.-Proc were ini-
ated at the War department to call
Col. William Mitchell to account for
his public declaration that administra-
ton of the army and navy air services
had been criminally negligent and 'al-
most reasonable"
BY direction of Maj. Gen. John l..
Hines, chief of staff, Maj. Gen. Eli A.
Helmick, the inspector general, began
an investigation with the assignment
of Col. George A. Nugent of his de-
partment as special investigator. Col
onel Nugent was sent to San Antonio,
Texas, where Colonel Mitchell is sta
toned, to ask him in person if he
made the statements attributed to
him.
Since it is not doubted at the de-
partment that Colonel Mitchell will
admit having made the statements un-
DER investigation, the preliminary move
Is merely a necessary routine step
paving the way possibly for trial by
an army court.
Secretary Wilbur replied indirectly
to one charge made by Colonel
Mitchell.
The secretary said the Shenandoah
had not been sent on her western trip
In an effort to make up for failure of
the polar flight and the Hawaiian
flight. A western voyage had been
planned months ago, he said, before
the Hawaiian flight was arranged and
about the same time that the Arctic
expedition was agreed upon.
Proceedings against Colonel Mitchell
will be confined strictly to the question
whether he has been guilty of insubor-
dination and should be punished. The
range of penalties goes all the way
from a loss of numbers in grade, de-
ferring promotion, to dismissal from
the service

Coolidge Plans to Put
u. S. in the World Court

Swampscott.-Approval by the SEN
ate Of the World court at the coming
session and the calling of an arms linn
itation conference to meet in Wash
ington in the near future were predict
ed at the White Court at the last au-
dience granted newspaper men by the
official spokesman before the return
OF President Coolidge to Washington.
He Is now convinced that, after
reasonable amount of debate, the SEN
ate will reach vote on this question
and will approve this country enter
ing the court on terms which, while
entirely protecting American interests
and avoiding responsibilities and liza
bilities which any connection with the
League of Nations might involve, will
still be moderate enough to insure
their acceptance by the other powers,
and thus enable the United States to
enter the international tribunal for
the settlement of disputes between ma
lions and avoiding wars.

DAVIS FAvORS NEW
LAWS TO AID LABOR
Would Eliminate OUerproduc-
ton and Loss of EN-
ployment.

Mooseheart, nl.-Legislative changes
to authorize Industrial combinations
for the contol of production were d.
clared by James j. Davis, secretary
Of labor, in an address at Mooseheart,
ILL.,, to be the only means of so sta
bilizing industry that workers will
have the assurance of continuous
employment. Unexpected layoffs, he
asserted. 30 the chief hardships CT
the workingman, since they are some
thing he has to fear at all times, re-
CARELESS of the quality of his work or
satisfactory relations with his en-
ployer
The present laws against the organ
ization of business, in the view of
the secretary of labor, keep small and
inefficient plants in operation, with
the result that production is uncon-
trolled and far beyond the capacity of
the market at certain times. Indus
try must thus wait for consumption
to catch up, and industry cannot en-
ploy the laborer when it cannot sell
the products Of his labor.
Mr.. Davis cited the Illinois coal
mining situation as an example of the
evils growing out of systematization.
Eighty-four of the 1873 strip mines in
the state could produce 77,783,000
tons year, on a 300-day employment,
and this is 100000 tons more than
all the shipping mines of the state
produced in 1924. he said
This means that 254 mines of the
state represent a useless expenditure
OF money SO far as invested. capital
goes, in Mr.. Davis opinion, and that
their sole economic function is to pre-
vent any mine worker from obtaining
employment for full year.
Some provision must be found to
let the "a mines of Illinois, or what
ever number is necessary, operate
with the necessary men to produce
with years labor the amount Of coal
needed is the state in a year, he said.
This would mean that the cost of
operating unnecessary mines would
be stopped, the workers would not be
scattered over FIVE times the number
OF plants necessary, and that the ques-
ZION OF higher and higher wages, be-
cause the miners are not employed
steadily enough to make a living,
would be solved. If lit cannot be done
under existing laws, the laws should
De changed, the secretary asserted.
