BRAND AGAIN
ORGANIZES A
French CABINET
Eight Times Premier of
France
Especial to The Daily wOrksr)

Especial to The Daily Worksr)
PARIS, Nov. 29.--Aristlde BRAND,
eight times premier Of France, has
finally succeeded In creating cabin
ct out of the wreekage Of the Pain
leve cabinet that week ago fell for
the second time within a month.
BRAND will retain his post of fore
ign minister while acting as premier.
The new cabinet is simply a re-
shutting of the old one with slight
swing to the right Former Premier
Georges Leygues is the only member
added to the cabinet and is from the
right. Painleve is to be minister of
war. to continue his bloody assault
against Syria, which is one of the
fundamental necessities of French
policy.
Herriot Fails.
1t is generally conceded that BRAND
maneuvered the past week so that
he could gain a majority in the cham
Der and that his suggestion that the
president call in Paul Doumer, whom
he knew could not organize govern
ment, would give him time to realign
the forces in the chamber. Not being
prepared to assume the task when
Doumer failed it is known that BRAND
induced President Doumergue to call
in Eduard Herriot, former premier and
head Of the left bloc, knowing that
Herriot would also fail. These two
failures and the disorganized condi-
ton Of the government since a week
ago Friday gave BRAND chance to
break the left bloc, to isolate the
Herriot party and obtain a majority
In this art of political trickery
BRAND is past master, but not even
his astute manipulation Of parties
within the chamber can assure a tran
quill regime. The economic and nnan-
cial condition of the country will
doom his cabinet to a short and hectic
life. Communists are convinced that
the present alignment in the chamber
is not permanent and that conditions
will force the collapse Of the govern
ment and soon force a general de-
mand for new elections.

against the signers of a leafet en.|
titled "The Facts About Zeigler" The
charges had been previously thrown
out by the trial committee Of the local
union. The leafet contained an eff
fective and truthful story Of the in
cidents leading up to the latest oc-
currence in zeigler and lpaced the
blame for the matter on'the shoulders
of those to whom it belonged.
Part Of Frame-up.
Everyone knows why this decision
was made right now" declared Henry
Corbishly, deposed president of the
local and one of the leading defend
ants in the case. "The Harrington
machine wants to show in court we're
such bad disrupters of the union that
we had to be suspended for six
months, and in this way they hope to
prejudice the judge and jury against
US. The same men who are behind
our frame-up are behind this suspen-
sion.
'Tt's significant that when we await
a decision on some question of wages
or of the checlzweighman affecting
the interests of the miners it takes
from two to three months, in spite of
the fact that the sub-district office
at West Frankfurt is less than an
hour away from Zeigler. This suspen-
sion decision was made a little over
week ago and is timed to take place
just before the actual opening Of the
trial.
"We had to get the truth to the
miners and the public somehow" con-
tinued Corbishly, "and there isn't a
paper in the county that would print
our stories. Lon Fox and Del Cobb
see to that. There WIS only one thing
we could do, and we did it, because
we're entitled to it. We printed this
leafet to let everyone know what
actually happened in zeigler."
VIII Fight an Appeal.
The suspended members have an
nounced their intention of appealing
to the district executive board, and if
necessary to the international execu-
tive board or the international con-
vention.
1t is openly stated here by sup
porters of the prosecution that the
actual charges and issues will be
evaded by the prosecution and that
every effort will be made to base
their side of the case on the f"Bol-
shevik scare" and the "red menace"
in the hope of prejudice a jury which
is likely to be made up mainly of
farmers from the other side of the
county. -
In private conversations, harrington
men admit that the basis of the in
dictments lies in the fact that the
coal operators in zeigler were out to
get rid of the local progressive union
officials led by Corbishly because of
the latter's insistence on correct
weighing of coal and wages to the
miners in accordance,
The frame-up against them is the
result of the cooperation which the
ku klux khan and the Farrington-Fox
machine is giving to the owners OF
the huge Bell and zoller mine No. 1

FINANCIAL RETURNS
GOVERNMENT GIVES FIGURES
OF RECEIPTS AND EXPENDI-
TURES OF AVERAGE FARM.

An average cash balance of ST.
024, the margin of cash receipts over
cash expenses, was returned to owner
operators in 1924 on 15.l03 farms sur
veyed by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. In addition to
this margin these farms increased in
ventories of crops, live stock, machin-
cry and supplies $751;, making an aver
age return of $1,205 for the use of
200 of capital and the labor of the
farmer and his family These farms
also produced food and fuel consumed
on the farm estimated to be worth
$500 on the average.
This is~a somewhat better showing
than in 1923, when a similar survey
on 1913 owner-operated farms aver
aged cash balance OF $500, increased
inventory Of $3.50, and produced food
and fuel worth $265 on capital amount
ing to $l7,490.
The balance of $1,02+ in 1924 was
made available to the owner to pay
his living expenses, take care Of debts,
and make investments. Interest paid
on debts during the year 1924 aver
aged $3.50 and the reported outlay for
improvements averaged $l33
Sales of crops in 1924 on the aver
age totaled $1,012, sales of live stock
or live stock products were $3.50, and
miscellaneous receipts were $72.
Cash expenses totaled $l,4l0, which
included hired labor worth 1884 for
the year, live stock $222, feed $24S,
fertilizer 500 seed $44, taxes $780, ma
chinery $l03 and miscellaneous $151.

er than the average reported in the
1920 census The value of crops, live
stock, machinery and supplies on hand
at the beginning of the year was ST.
937. The acreage of the farms report
ing in 1923 was 800 acres and the
average capital $l7, 400.
The department points out that the
figures apply only to the farms re
porting and to the farm business in
each year Many farmers have prop
erty besides the farms they work, or
supplement- their farm returns with
outside work, and many drew on saw
ings or borrowed to meet expenses not
covered by current receipts. 1t is
probable, however, that the figures
give fairly accurate picture of the
state of the business of owner-opera-
tors in the years covered by the sur

MAP OF u. S. WILL
COVER WHOLE ACRE
EVERY INCH OF THE COUN.
TRY AND EVERY HOUSE TO
BE SHOWN WHEN MADE.

The recent passage of an authorize
ton bill by congress enables the gov
eminent to carry to completion the
largest and most comprehensive map
of the United States-a great mother
map that will represent, when com
pleted twenty years from now, an ac-
curate Typographical survey of every
square inch of the vast territory that
comprises the United States.
This great map-the largest in the
world-will not be in one piece, but
will be composed of 5000 sections
which, if placed together in one big
pattern, would cover more than an
acre OF ground. So complete in every
detail will it be, says Popular Science
Monthly, that anybody living in any
section of the country will be able to
find on the proper sheet the exact To-
cation of his house. Delicate contour
lines will draw the picture of the
country's hills and valleys, plains and
mountain ranges, canyons and water
ways-even its man-made landmarks.
Work on the survey for the map
began in 1870 and has progressed
slowly, held back by lack of appro-
priations. Now, however, congress has
authorized the completion OF the work
and the appropriation of $950,000 for
the survey in the first year. The total
expenditure, with state cooperation,
is estimated at $40 100000
Modern science in many ways will
aid in completing the map. Aerial
photography will play an important
part The mapping plane, carrying a
photographer equipped with a pano-
ramic camera, flies at an altitude Of
about $1,000 feet, and pictures are ia
ken often enough so that they overlap.
Then definite locations OF known
points are marked accurately on traC-
ing linen as a guide in fitting the aerial
photographs.
The survey will be history in it
self. Every line on the map will re-
veal much of romance and adventure
for those who have had a part i'll its
making
For example. a group OF tiny lines
defines the contour of Mt. Mckinley.
Yet to obtain them, a company of men
have struggled up the white heights
laboriously packing surveyors equip
ment, and have pitted their strength
and wit against the forces Of nature
Again. there is designated on the map
a minute area marked "Mojave." I'm
der a burning sun another company
has spent many hours in the desert
sighting and marking.
1t is a tremendous undertaking. Yet
when the last square inch OF our vast
country has been surveyed there will
have been completed a treaure chest
Of priceless value.

FEW PERSONS ARE
STRUCK BY LIGHTNING
pin ABOUT ONE CHANCE IN
TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY
THOUSAND OF BEING HIT.

To a good many people there's just
,,a dark cloud on the horizon of sum-
NOR And that dark cloud is the one
.bat brings the thunder and lightning
an innate terror, perhaps of inherit
orce from those ancient days when
man was a pastoral being and roamed
tbe fields at the mercy of the elements.
Those of us who really are fearful
II electric storms may be comforted
~ know that the chances OF being
struck are comparatively small. Stein
,,etz the electrical wizard of Schenec-
tgdv. who himself forged bolts of light
n;no and made mock thunder-storms,
estifnated that we run about one
chance in 100000 of being hit.
That ought to be reassuring, for the
risks we take every day of our lives
IN railroad trains, on the street, in
automobiles are far greater than that.
However, in spite of the odds
against our being hit, it is foolish to
take unnecessary chances. A wise per
,son remains indoors during thunder
storm. and, if outdoors, stays away
from trees, metal fences and buildings
with metal roofs. If caught in an open
field or in a small boat ones chances
nj safety are increased by lying down.
Trees have been found to vary as
conductors of lightning. Those that
have wide-spreading roots reaching
deep into the soil are favorite targets.
Studies made in west in Europe have
shown very definitely that the oak is
struck with greater frequency than
other trees for this very reason. Pop
lars and elms are quite susceptible;
while chestnuts, naples and elders are
more free from danger.
Destroys $12,O0O,OO0 Annually.
A. an agent of destruction, light
ming is to be seriously reckoned with.
The weather bureau of the United
States Department OF Agriculture not
very long ago made study of fire
losses resulting from lightning alone,
and found that they total at conserva-
tive estimate as much as $l2,0OO,O00
a year.
Among states Illinois holds first
place with a loss of over million dol
lars annually. This does not mean that
Illinois has more storms than any
other state, but merely that its losses
occur in districts OF great industrial
development and therefore are very
costly.
Texas ranks next because it offers
sucn large expanse to the fury OF
the elements and because its landscape
is dotted with very inhammable oil
tanks. And New York ranks third,
probably for reasons similar to those
that hold in the case of Illinois.
As. a result Of its Investigations the
weather bureau is a strong advocate
if lightning rods, especially on farm
houses and isolated buildings. In Mich
igan, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Iowa,
where more than half the farm build
ings are protected by rods, the de
crease in estimated loss would seem
to be ample justification OF this pro-
lection

white house, at Washington, has been
