PENN. ASSEMBLIES
 COAL PROPOSALS
Several Measures to End Strike
 Up for Consideration

Harrisburg, Pan Jan. 19 Rl-Con- .sideration of the anthracite mining situation by the Pennsylvania legis- latwo shifted today from measures for control of the industry to moves launched last night to end the pres .ont miners strike.
 The efforts were In the form of two resolutions proposing separate commissions to settle the differences between operators and miners and bring about resumption of opera tons. One would create a commis- sion of five members to be appoint .cd by President Coolidge which would be directed to meet within fifteen days in Wilkes Barre or scranton summon miners and oper- .ators before it and, artar investigat- ling 'all matters in dispute" make .an award and recommend a five year contract, The resolution suggests that the miners be ordered to re- turn 10 work at once and that, pend- ing the award by the commission, the old wage scale continue in ef- feet.
 The other resolution proposes a commission t0 consist of three mem hers each of the state senate and house and three to be appointed by the governor. The commission would be directed 10 invite miners and operators to meet for the pur- pose of resuming negotiations "so that an early and satisfactory settle ncnt Of all matters in dispute may be affected"
 Action on both resolutions was de- ferred, with the possibility that either might be brought up today.
 Another bill affecting the industry also made it's appearance. It was sponsored by Representative John F. Stavitsli, member of the Unit ed Mine Workers, and proposes more stringent regulations for min crs' certificates than those in the present state law. Repeal Of the tWo-year experience section of the old law is proposed in a bill now on the calendar. This was due to go back to the senate committee on mines today for a public hearing January 27.
 Several of the legislators from the hard coal counties are prepared, however, to support the Stavitski measure, directly opposed to that of senator Woodward.
 John L. Lewis, international pres idcnt of the United Mine workers Of America, is expected to appear be- Fore committees to argue for and
New Britain herald., 1926-01-19

against tho various bills.
 MT, Lewis received an ovation from 4,o00 miners of Scranton yes terdny, when he asserted the oper- ators were alone responsible for the calling of the strike, and responsible for it's continuation when they pleaded poverty as justification for their demand that wages be cut, they had refused in and out Of joint conference to offer their books and accounts as proof of their pleas. They had refused to name q single coal company that was hard up."
 Lewis asserted the operators were waslng war on the women of the anthracite field in an attempt to force arbitration on the miners, and 10 crush the union in the anthracite field. But he served notice the miners would not now, six months from now nor year from now, accept any set tloment including proposal for continual arbitration. He said the operators, with all their strength, had not the power to crush the United Mine Workers in the hard coal field.
 He was scheduled to address an- other group of miners at Shonan- doah today.

" MORE POPULAR THAN EVER..B ..BARNES
More Interest Being Shown in
 Association Activities

That the Young Mems Christian association Is enjoying one of its mot active years, was the gist of q statement made by Clarence II Barnes. general secretary in his monthly report to tho directors last evening.
 The report by Mir. Barnes was as followi:
 ''lo the Board of Directors.
 Gentlemen:
 Translation of the bare fact, that the association Is now enjoying one of It's best years, into more inter- csting terms of service and activities c2n be made but inadoauately in q report. It Is 10 be hoped that some Of the directors will observe for themselves just what the Y. M. C. A. means in the lives of many men and boys. The activities are numerous and varied. but underneath all of Ihcm is the purpose of making bet ter men. The physical, educational, religious and social activities arc conducted with this in mind. And thcre is frequent enough testimony from men to show us that this ob. icct Is being reached to some extent al least.
 "Tako the program for today as au illustration of activities: A boys gym class at { o'clock; a business mems gym class at o'clock: on industrial basketball team prac- ice at G:SO o'clock; an employed boys gym class al : o'clock; all-round athletic contest at o'clock; salesmanship class and accountancy class at 7:30 o'clock. girls bowling teams at 7:3o o'clock; l. wrestling class at 8 o'clock; a box ing class at 8 o'clock. Add to this men using the reading and social rooms. billiards, swimming, hand uall and the boys department, and you have a days program.
 "The abcye listed gym classes or similar ones arc of daily routine. Add to them three suppers, fire mems gym class, three basketball cagues, q handball and volley bah league, four additional educational classes, two Bible classes, dance. girls bowling league twice a week and 2 "ocial. and there is displayed 2 weeks program.
 Neil McMillan, Of the national council, who is & qualified judge, paid New Britain the compliment. upon 8 recent visit, when he said ne was surprised to sec more ac- livities here than in many bigger and better buildings. But what greater things would the associa- ion do if it had q modern building.
 Educational Work
 "Tho program laid out last sum- mer for educational classes has now been fulfilled by the addition of a class in forcmanship in which % men are enrolled. Edward A. Ilraus of the New Britain Machine company is the leader. Six cjasscs have been organized this a ason with 100 men enrolled. 2alesmanship. accountancy, public poaking, business letters and sign writing are being taught in ad- ,,ition 10 inc new course.

THE HOW AND WHY OF
OUR SUPERIOR COURT
Most People have but Hay Idea of the Functions
of the States Highest Tribunal. Bridges, Asso-
ciate Judge of the Supreme Court of Washing
ton, Undertakes to Explain it's Operations

illustrate that in case where the
facts are determined by a jury,
the hands of the supreme court, in
$50 far as the facts are concerned,
are practically tied; whereas, the
contrary is true where the trial
court alone decided the facts. 1t
should be said that where the
court is satisfied from a. reading
of the record that there is no
substantial testimony supporting
the verdict of the jury, it may set
it aside. In other words, if there
| is no testimony, the verdict must
fall. By this action the court does
not weigh the testimony, because
| it finds there is none to weigh.
i It will thus be seen that the SUI
preme court is not responsible to
any considerable extent, for the
proper decision of the facts in a
case tried to a jury. Generally
speaking, the result is that In all
cases heard by the trial without a
| Jury the supreme court has a right
to and does decide the case strictly
upon its merits both as to the
facts and the law, but where the
case has been tried to a jury the
court is limited almost entirely to
questions of law; that is, whether
| the trial court properly instructed
the jury as to the law or whether
the court erred in its rulings con-
corning the admission of evidence,
or whether there were other more
or less similar errors committed
by the trial court.
The supreme court hears and
decides between 600 and 700 cases
each year and each of its members
writes in the neighborhood OF 70
opinions each year. These opinions
average six or seven printed pag-
es each, and often represent the
decision of exceedingly complicat-
ed, difficult and important ques-
tions of fact and law. The SUI
preme court, being the highest
court of the state. interprets the
law by which all citizens are con-
trolled in their personal conduct
and business affairs. There is no
appeal from it's decisions, except
in few instances to the supreme
court of the United States. Not
more than an average of two or
three cases per year, decided by
the supreme court of the state,
are taken to the supreme court
of the United States. so that the
decision Of the supreme court of
the state is absolutely final in
SO per cent of the cases disposed
of by it.
The work of this supreme court
is probably as heavy as any like
court in the United States, and
much heavier than most of them.
For illustration, each Judge of the
supreme court of the state of
Washington writes each year ebout

Court Up to Date
j. The supreme court of Washing
ton brides itself on being practic-
ally up to date with its work. Al
the beginning of each term OF
court probably ninety per cent OF
the cases that have previously
been submitted to the court have
been decided; and by the time the
fall term commences In OCTOBER
every case has been finally decld-
ed, except a very few upon which
the court has been badly divided
and desires to hear further argu.
ment. Many of the cases are final.
ly decided within thirty days after
they are submitted to this court
and probably ninety per cent OF
them are decided within ninety
days after they are submitted.
Altho we are a very young state
we at present have 40 printed vol.
umes of reported opinions, each
volume being about 700 pages II
length, and we are adding thereto
at the rate. of between four ano
five volumes each year.

HOW CHARLES LEARNED
UNSELFISHNESS

Charles was only three years
old. Carol, who was visiting him,
was little girl three years older.
They played together happily for
a while. Then Charles took his
kiddie car, and rode around the
room a few times. He stopped, and
began playing with some other
toys. Carol took the car and rode
across the room.
Charles was worried over this.
Carol had not asked permission
to take the car, and he did not
know whether she would give it
back or not. He began to cry, and
running to his auntie, who was
sitting near, he said, "Carol is
taking my kiddic car. Make her
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1926-12-30

give it back"
Then what did aunt do? Did she
scold Charles, and tell him he was
a selfish boy? Did she give him a
lecture on unselfishness No! She
took Charles on her lap and talked
softly to him in this fashion:
"Don't cry, darling. Carol is only
borrowing it and will give it back
when she has used it while. You
don't mind lending it to Carol,
do you?"
sNo," answered the little fell
low, happily.
Then auntie told Charles how
she and his mother and other chill
dren used to play together when
they were just about his size.
Zone of us would ride awhile,
and then another, till all of us had
taken a ride. Then we would be-
gin over again. That was taking
turns, we said. Wouldn't you and
Carol, like to do that way, too 2"
"Yes,' answered little Charles,
with his face all smiles and dim
piles again.
By this time Carol had come
back with the car, and was listen
ing to what auntie was saying.
She, too, thot that taking turns
was a good plan. So they played
happily for an hour, first Carol
and then Charles riding the car,
and the little boy let his play
mates turn be the longer each
time.
In this way Charles learned how
to practice unselfishness; it was
new experience and he enjoyed
it. When children are taught by
such method, they not only learn
to share the toys and pleasures
willingly, but they learn at the
same time to respect the rights of
others, a much needed lesson in
these days.
