Patriotic Feeling Is Cli- maxed by Address of
 Pres. Coolidge

WASHINGTON, April 17-With President Coolidge as the princi- pal speaker. the ThirtysSeventh Continental Congress of the Daughters of the American Revo- lution was opened yesterday amid a canopy of State and National banners and the glamour of mar tial music. The day of patriotic feeling steadily mounted. and reached climax in the address by President Coolidge.
 Although there was an under current of uneasiness oecasioned by recent criticism of the black listing of certain speakers and of the National organization policy in respect to the naval building bill, there are indications this criticism will take the form of demand for a referendum of the society's membership before the adoption of the national policy by the officers.

STRIKERS MAY GET MONEY OF
 'REPUDIAT TI0N'
Families of Coal Miners May Be Aided-Is Up
 to Senator Borah

WASHINGTON. D C., April IT Whether the needy families Of unemployed soft coal miners of Pennsylvania ultimately will re ceive the S160,000 Borah oil Ire pudiation" fund is a question soon to be decided by the Idaho sena- tor.
 A suggestion that the money he is raising should not be returned to Harry F. Sinclair because the bonds in that amount the oil op- orator donated to the Republican party did not belong 10 him. but should be turned over to miners families or some other group out of work. was received by Senator Borah from Mrs. B. r. Langwor thy, president of the Chicago City Woman's club.
 Borah's Reply
 Senator Borah replied he knew of no better cause to help and said he would consult the contribu- tors to the fund to determine how they feel about it. The fund now stands above the $70O0 mark and the senator said he would con tinue the drive and if necessary would take up the question ol raising the remainder with party leaders at the Kansas City con vention.
 Not long after publication of the Borah-Langworthy commuai- cations, Philip Murray, interna tional president of the United Mine Workers. at Pittsburgh, said if those who donated to the fund agreed his organization would gladly accept the money for re- lief purposes.
 Proposition Opposed
 This did not find favor, how ever. with Vincent Kemenovich, secretary-treasurer of the Ohio Pennsylvania relief committee. an organization sponsored by inter ests opposed to the Lewis admin istration of the miners union While not opposing the utiliza- tion of the money for such relief. he suggested an investigation first should be made to determine which relief agency should admin ister the fund.
 ''The United Mine Workers" he said. would use the money to bolster up their tottering organi- zation."

Disappointed with results of it's effort to promote reindeer grazing among the Indian tribes of inter for Alaska, the Federal Bureau of Education is about to abandon the work and dispose of it's ex- perimental herd Caribou are too plentiful and easy 10 slaughter for the Indians to take an in terest in the care and breeding of the domesticated animals.
 The announcement that the bureau would cease its interior experiment, was made today by Gov George A Parks. It was too much of a financial burden on the bureau to justify it's con tinuance in the face of the lack of results from the work already done.
 Indians Not Interested
 Several years ago, the Govern ment brought herd of several hundred deer from the Kusko- kwim with view of introducing the breeding and grazing indus try along the line of the Alaska Railroad. It was located at Cant we'll where grazing conditions were most favorable. The herd thrived and had a normal in- crease. But the Indians whom it was sought to interest were indifferent to begin with and re- mained in that state They couldn't be made to understand why it was beneficial to them to play nursemaids to a drove of domesticated animals when all they had to do if they wanted meat to eat or skins for use for parkas or other clothing was to step outside of their villages and slaughter few caribou, the wild counterpart for the deer. They didn't take 10 the herding idea either kindly or otherwise.
 The Government was even forced to bring Eskimo herders to Cantwell 10 look after the animals. That was becoming ex- pensive,. Then some of the rein deer looked with longing at the state of their wild brethren from the hills. Distant pastures, as always, loomed greener, and the reindeer moss over the distant skyline was more tender and more juicy than that which grew in the home pastures. And the adventurous members of the tame deer herd, like humans, answer ed the call of the wild. So where
