Mines Closed.

Fallen Timber has had no work
since the 1917 scale was proposed; the
Emmons Coal Co., operators and coal
brokers, find other of their mines
more profitable. At Coal port, the
furtherest point in Cowan's territory
the two big mines-Irvona and Imper-
ial, owned by companies with those
names-have been closed tight since
the operators failed to get the union
men to go scab at the 1917 rate. Ru-
mors of further efforts to reopen non
union persist, demanding frequent
check by Cowan. The last load Of
scabs brought in were run out of
town.
An Open Shop Firm.
Blandenburg miners are strongly
union and resist the pressure to go
scab, even though surrounding mines
are now closed. A $4,000 union hall
was completed in time for a July
dance. At Blandburg the big Harbi-
son-Walker Refractory cannot get coal
from It's own mine for it's local brick
yard. The clay products concern
won't recognize the miners union be-
cause its managers know it would be
Immediately pressed by brickworkers'
demands for similar consideration.
The firm has matchmaking plants at
Clearfeld and other towns lin the
mine districts where clay is plentiful,
but its brickworkers are all unorgan-
lied.
Driven to Factory.
A young Blandburg union miner had
just come back from Philadelphia
when Cowan arrived. He had been
working in an auto body plant where
each machine had its production card.
At night an efficiency manager would
check up the cards and change the
rate so the workers would not make
too much pay. The young miner pre-
ferred coal digging, with workers or
ganized, but expressed bewilderment
as to what is happening in the bitum-
nous industry that so many mines
shut down or try to run non-union.
Picture of Capitalism.
At Heverly the small mine is oper-
ated on contract basis by union
miners, who pay the Jacksonville scale
to others they employ. Talford Lew
is, Johnstown attorney, operates the
big Jazzy Hill mine and others at
Flinton-non-union. The company
houses are drab, the ground around
them tramped hard; no grass, no gar
dens. Ragged, hungry looking chill
dren move about listlessly, victims of
situation they cannot understand.

ENGLISH PAPERS
LABOR DELEGATES
SHOWN UP BADLY

WASHINGTON July 22-Copies Of

Mails delegation of conservative
trade unionist" investigators, as to
the reasons for high wages and high
living standard in the United States,
have reached trade union officials in
Washington.
The report proves to be boost for
Atterbury of the Pennsylvania rail-
road, for the General Motors corpora

open shop notables. It praises the re-
suits of piece-work systems of pay
ment, finds the company unions hap

anti-union employers in this country

Banquet Our LEADERS"
When this delegation came to Wash
ington last spring 1t called upon the
executive council of the American
Federation Of Labor, which was in
session at headquarters, and gave the
council formal dinner at the big
Mayhower hotel.
Leaders of the mission soon began
to give press statements indicating
their admiration for American con-
Germs that have been bitter foes Of
American labor Their initial declara-
ton that they were not in sympathy
with "bolshevistic" tendencies in the
British movement began to have a
new meaning as they moved from CEN
ter of company unionism to another
Against BoIsheVlsm-and Labor.
Some suspicion attached to the
Daily Mails enterprise from the out
set, because that paper was trying to
arouse public sentiment in Britain
aginst the miners proposed strike.
Acceptance of a trip to America, at
a time when that fact would be used
to weaken the solidarity of British la
Dor in support of the miners, was
pointed out as an act of bad faith on
the part of the men who took the
Daily Nails money and joined in it's
anti-union report.

the industry in the southern states
Scientific studies have shown that
long hours do not mean large produc-
tion."
Nearness to raw cotton with freight
savings, the use Of nearby non-union
coal from Alabama, West Virginia and
Kentucky, in addition to southern
water power development attract
mills to the south.
The industry has grown more in the
south, but it is still increasing in the
north, census figures show, said Soule.
No mills have actually closed out in
the north and moved south, altho
northern mills have established south

The unemployment insurance ONCE

agreements has sent out $4,000 in
checks to unionists out Of employ

about half of the sum to which mem

balance in the fund treasury, tho it is
certain that the amount will not cover
the entire obligation. The union is
agitating revision of the agreement.

Not Near Enough Money
 To Fight Forest FireS

New Haven. Oct. 5 LP - Unless appropriations made by the state for protecting it's forests from fire are tripled. it will be impossible to protect them adequately except in the years when rainfall is great enough to keep them damp, A. F. Hawes, state forester, told members of the Connecticut Forestry associa- ton at a recent meeting. The great fly increased human use of the for ests for recreation has increased the fire hazard greatly over years ago, according to Mir. Hawes.
 The state now spends s15,0o0 8 year on this work. The sl5,oo0 should be increased to S50,000, MT. Hawes declared. The greatest needs are for moro flre-lookout towers, more motorcycle patrolmen and more gasoline pumps.
 Although the state policy in re- gard to state forests calls for an area of 100000 acres of state land, the state now owns only 30.000. he said, urging an increased appropria- ton now before land values take on greater increase.

ALLING CASE IS CLOSED, SAY JUDGES
Refuse to Reopen Charges Against Elm City Prosecutor

Hartford, Oct 5.-lF- The judges of the superior court, at their morning session in the state library building yesterday refused to reopen the charges against States Attorney Arnon A. filling, of New Haven | county as requested by Mrs. Sarah A. peVlin, president of the Public Welfare association of New Haven
 Renewed Charges
 After the charges by Mrs. Devlin that he had been seen entering places where liquor was reputed to have been sold, had been dismissed by the judges last summer. Mrs. Devlin renewed the charges in the form of specifications, against States Attorney filling.
 Dismissed In June
 The judges voted that they would not reopen the charges against Mir Alling because the Public Welfare association and Mrs. Devlin had pre- viously been given full opportunity 10 make specific their charges and had failed 10 do so in upwards to five months although several times requested to do so. The specified tions which Mrs. Devlin and the association made against Mir. filling covered the same period of her gen eral complaints, which the judges dismissed in June.
 Not for Public Interest
 Chief Justice Guorge w. Wheeler having been requested to furnish copy of the specifications against Mr. filling. declined on behalf of the judges on the ground that it was not for the public interest to give them out.

DOHENY LAWYER
 FIGHTING HARD
Claim Oil Leases Pr0per-Seek
 YaidatiOn

Washington, Oct. LPl-Oral argu.
 ment by whcih Edward L. Doheny
 seeks to validate his disputed
 lease to the Elks Hills naval oil
 reserve in California and his con
 tracts for the construction of stor- age tanks at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, continued today before the supreme court
 Frederic R. Kellogg was granted an hour by the court to complete the Doheny argument which was begun yesterday at the opening of the fall term by Frank J. Hogan, leading counsel for the oil operator. Fol lowing conclusion of Kellogg's S statement, Owen Roberts and former Senator Atlee Pomerene, special government counsel, were granted one hour each in which to pre- sent their arguments for canceIla- tion of the lease on the ground of fraud
 Kellogg sought to apply what he contends is the law in the case IC 1-+S Stt-['liACliL OL LtlIlS pIFStlliEu by Hogan, who held that the act of 1920 had given the secretary of the navy full discretion in determining the use of oil in the reserves, that former Secretary Denby determined to exercise this authority on the rec ommendation of Rear Admiral John k. Robinson, then chief of the bu- reau Of steam engineering, and de- cided to have the oil removed from the ground where 1t was being drained by naghboring private wells and place it in storage tanks for fu- tUre naval use.
 The long dispute, which began as the result of a senate investigation and passed through the lower fed eral courts, found a full court in at- tendance, but Associate Justice Stone withdrew from the deliberations be- cause he had considered phases of the case while he was attorney gen. eral.
 Hogan also contended that the S10G,000,000 loan by Doheny to AL pert B. Fall, then secretary of the interior, approximately a year be- fore the contracts and lease were executed, did not constitute a bribe and that Secretary Denby had acted after the judge advocate general of the navy had assured him of his right to do so.
 Hogan argued that government evidence at the trial failed to dis close any connection between the | contract and the loan: which was on a promissory note. and added that Fall had no active part in framing or promoting the navy's removal policy" regarding the oil, although | he had been consulted from time to | time in the development of that pol icy.
 Government counsel contend that i the lower courts of California should | be sustained in their f1ndnig of | fraud in connection with the con- tracts and in cancelling them.
