ural gobetween in the general strike settlement. SamuePs memorandum, which the Trades Union Council ac- cepted as a basis for calling off the strike, contained the following condi- tions:
 First: That the coal subsidy be re- newed for such reasonable time as required;
 Second: Creation of a national wage board, including representatives of miners, neutral, and with an inde- pendent chairman to revise the min ers' wages;
 Third: There be no revision of pre- vious wages without sufficient assur- ance of the reorganization of the coal industry can be executed;
 Fourth: The governments commit tee, with a representation from the miners, which will prepare legisla- tive and executive measures necessary to effect the reconstruction of the coal industry.
 The memorandum suggested the re- vised wages be on simpler lines than the old ones, that they don't adverse ly affect the wages of the lowest paid men, and suggested measures to prevent recruitment of new workers over IS years old if unemployed min CTS are available. It was estimated 250,000 men will be displaced in the mining industry by the proposed re.

JUDGES OPINION IS CAUSING SOME DOUBT
 OVER CORDOVA NAY
MANY PERSONS IN COPPER RIN- FER TOWN ARE OUT ON sUs-
 PENDED SENTENCES

Considerable speculation is cur
 rent regarding the effect which Judge
 Cleggs recent ruling banning sus- pended sentences by United States Commissioners is likely to have, an nounced the Cordova Times of a re- cent date Court officials are an xiously waiting to learn further de- tails regarding the opinion handed down.
 Records of the Cordova comnis- sionre's court since E. H. Boyer took office on November last, show that one man is serving a three months suspended sentence. Of the others who have the threat of punishment hanging over their heads providing they do not satisfy the court as to their conduct, two face a years i'm pT1Sonment, one has six months, an other has three months and another has three months and another a sus- pended fine. MT. Boyer estimates that there probably are 20 persons who are out on suspended sentences given in Cordova in little more than the past year. Some of these were suspended on condition that they sat- isfy the court that they mend their tormer anti-prohibition activities and become strictly bone dry To bring the sentence into force in some cases another trial would be unnecessary If the commissioner were presented with substantial evidence that form CT illegal practices had been resumed the sentnce could be invoked.

Our WdshhQ3tonL Letter
By " PDaley

Washington, March 31--With
recess of the Congress scheduled
for the first week in June, con-
gressional leaders are doing some
very careful calculation as to legis-
lative programs. The House and
Senate calendars are crowded
with pending bills and the COM
mittees are hard pressed by the
proponents of various legislative
movements. With the entire
membership of the House chang
ing in November and thirty-two
vacancies in the Senate, it is es-
sential that these men should
make political capital out of legis-
lative situations before turning
to their home districts.
It is curious how little things
affect the standing of a congress
man with the voters in his COM
munity. For instance, it is stated
that failure to obtain authority to
erect a bridge across a small
stream has cost more than one
congressman his seat in the House
of Representatives. The tighten
ing up of the Civil Service regu-
lations has lessened the oppor-
tunity for obtaining political gift
bags for deserving constituents.
Practically the only patronage re-
naming for a member of the
House is the erection of govern
mental buildings by obtaining
small Federal appropriations for
his district. Occasionally in CO.
operation with the senators from
his state he is able to persuade
the Administration to bestow some
political honor or post on some
particular party leader in his con-
gressional district. It is pitiful
at times to witness members of
Congress grasping at straws to
obtain favorable consideration
from some small clique through
the bestowal of patronage, no
matter how small.
The, decision of the House to
postpone consideration of the
Rivers and Harbors omnibus ap-
preparation bill brought distinct
shock to certain legislators. The
bill carried approximately $40, 900
900 for Improvements in water

ways and harbors. Measures of
this kind are generally advocated
by the business interests of the
community.
The deepening Of a navigable
river means little or nothing to
the average citizen but to a par
ticular community depending
upon water traffic for part Of its
industrial life, it is an all-impor-
tant item. Consequently the side
tracking of a measure of this kind
has made it difficult for congress
men to explain, in view of the
fact that he has assured the bust
ness interests of his particular
community that the matter would
be taken care of during this ses-
sion.
The reclamation situation in
the West, which for a time
threatened to cause trouble for
the Administration, is obviously
settling itself. A group of west
ern senators were out for the
scalp of Secretary of the Interior
Work because he Refused to accede
to some of their demands. The
Department of Interior has helped
to formulate legislation which
would relieve the situation with
a result that the tension existing
between western Republican sena-
tors and the Department has
lessened materially.
The postal controversy which
has been a source of concern to
congressman over a long period
OF years was revived this week
when the Special Joint Subcom-
mittee on Postal Rates held the
third of a series of hearings. 1t
is doubtful that any legislation of
this sort will be enacted at this
session. The Special Subcommit-
tee obtained consent of the Con-
gress to file it's report in December
so that even with the tremendous
amount of pressure it is extreme
ly unlikely that they will report
before the second session next
winter. The chief agitation for
postal legislation comes from
users of the third and fourth
class mail.

FROST BOILS ROAD
MENACE IN SPRING
County Highway Engineer Gives.
Few Timely Suggestions
About Roads.
(By III. V. JOrgensen.)

Each year as the snow melts
and the frost disappears nu-
merous complaints and kicks are
received by county highway en-
gineers. The most common of
these complaints is found to be
the socalled frost boil, which
generally, if not always, leaves
the road in a most deplorable:
and impossible condition.
The frost boils are formed by
action of the fall thawing and
freezing when a great amount of
water and moisture seeps into
the road bed. A few warm days
during the winter thaws part of
the road bed, where traffic soon
locates the weak spots and a
rapid disintegration of the wear
ing, surface begins. Ruts are
formed which quickly absorb
more moisture and with the ap-
proach of the warm spring sun
and rain these weak places are
soon very evident to the travel
ing public.
Before these frost. boils become
passable all moisture has to be
drawn from the road bed so as
to allow the subsoil and wearing
surface to dry up and form
hard crust. This can not be done
until the frost has entirely left
from below allowing the moisture
and water to seep further into
the ground.
Pine county's entire patrol sy-
stem, composed of forty-four pa
trolmen, has now started to COM
bat the trouble caused by the
action of the winter elements.
Each patrolman is striving to do
his best and have his section in
passable condition as soon as
possible. If the public will work
with the patrolmen and postpone
their heavy hauling or unneces-
sary travelling for about two
weeks such action will be of I'M
measurable assistance in getting
the road into shape.
Repairing of frost boils is en-
tirely up to nature and nature
takes it's course, so kindly be
patient and do your part in
assisting those interested and in
making the roads passable.

SANDSTONE MASONS
HAVE BIG NIGHT

The Sandstone Masons turned
out in large numbers for their
special meeting Saturday night
at the temple in Sandstone. AS
per notices sent out to members
the Summit lodge degree team of
St. Paul, was on hand to confer
the Master Mason degree on
seven candidates. From all re-
ports the visiting team perform
ed their work with ability and
sincerity, and made memorable
impression on the candidates as
we'll as all present.
Part of the work was perform
ed in the afternoon and at six
o'clock about 100 members par
took of delicious dinner prepar-
ed by ladies of the Eastern Star.
Among the dinner guests were
twenty-five from St. Paul.
At seven o'clock the main work
of comforting the degree was
started and this lasted until
nearly eleven; after which there
was a surprise in store for most
of those present-the ladies had
gathered in the dining hall, clear
ed away all the tables, and with
Thorne's orchestra on hand, dane
ing was enjoyed for about an
hour. Thorne's orchestra also
furnished music during the din
ner hour.
At IL o'clock the event was
closed with another good lunch
after which the ST. Paul men
started out for their homes
thanking their friends for the
social time they had had.
