SLIGHT HOPE FELT
IN COAL INDUSTRY
Labor and Other Ills Defy
Attempts to Restore
Prosperity.

BY the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH. July 16-Old King
Coal is a mighty sick man. while doc
tors in a half dozen clinics. grimly pom
dering his illness. seem unable to de-
termine what to do about 1t.
A complication Of diseases. labor and
economic difficulties, which laid the
industry low, particularly in Western
PENNSYLVANIA, Eastern Ohio and West
Virginia, has defied solution in long
chain of conferences. Leaders in va
riety of parleys seeking to restore peace
and prosperity to the mining centers
admit little progress has been made.
Many Plants Closed.
Strikes have spread throughout these
fields. shutting down many plants,
while others struggle along with greatly
reduced working forces.
Three miners organizations contend
meanwhile for the favor of the idle
workers-the United Mine Workers Of
America, the National Miners Union
and the West Virginia Mine Workers.
The operators, faced early this year
with demands for increased wages and
improved working conditions. replied
| that they have lost their markets and
are unable to mine at profit.
Freight rates, too. have entered into
the situation. Northern owners protest
they are being Disseminated against to
the benefit of their Southern trade
rivals in the shipment of coal to the
Great Lakes and. the operators point
out, carriers have excepted coal and
coke in asking the Interstate Com
merce Commission for a is per cent
increase in freight rates.
National Conference Looms.
Operators and miners leaders were
summoned to Washington recently.
Cabinet officers who heard their pleas
are checking that information. A ma
tional coal conference Is looked upon
here as one of the possible results.
Disorders have been numerous.
Clashes between miners and sympa-
thizers with sheriffs' deputies have re-
suited in two deaths and numerous in
jurieS. Strikebreakers have been at
tackled and the homes Of workers
bombed.
In scattered cases here and in West
Virginia operators have signed agree
ments with the United Mine Workers
of America. These plants were made
non -union operations in the 1928 strike.
Meanwhile movements are going for
ward to feed and clothe the growing
army Of needy and destitute in the af-
f1icted mining towns.

BAY STATE: RIFT 7
ST|RS c. D, P.

G. o. P. circles in washington
are watching narrowly the devel.
opment of q party scandal In
Massachusetts,, in which Louis
K. Liggett, Republican national
committeeman from the state,
and Amos L. Taylor, Republican
state chairman, are charged with
an attempt to "betray" Presi-
dent Hoover.
The resignation of both these
politicians have been demanded
by Lieut.. Gov. William S. Young
man, who is now nominally the
G. O. P. leader in the state, the
Democratic landslide of last No
vember having swept all other
Republicans in the state ad-
ministration out of office.
The quarrel between Lieutenant
Governor Liggett and Taylor is
the result of differences over the
bill to give preprimary party con-
ventions power to indorse candi-
dates at the following primary.
The legislation, which Youngman
believed was aimed at his sup
porters in G. o. P. ranks, was
defeated by the state legislature,
Lieutenant. Governor Youngman
issued a statement in which he
declared that Liggett and Tay-
lor were aiming to betray Hoover
supporters within G. o. P. ranks

MAKE PLANS FOR EAGLES PARADE
Gov Wilbur Cross Expected the Review the Monster
 Demonstration
SATURDAY AFTERNOON

Orders of Superintendent of Po- lice Joseph H. Mclean were posted to-day calling upon the entire morn ing platoon to report for special duty Saturday afternoon. The pla- toon in charge of Lieutenant James Mulville will take complete charge of traffic expected in connection with the mammoth parade of the Fraternal Order of Eagles.
 Traffic will be forbidden on the streets over which the parade will pass. This means that consider able work will be necessary to have autoists make the proper detours.
 The police escort for the parade will be headed by Sergeant Patrick Hillborg.
 Owing to the fact that Governor Wilbur Cross has assured the To- cal Eagles that he will be present to review the parade Saturday af- ternoon it is expected that some 25,O0O people will view the pro- cession as it wends its way along the principal streets of the city. The police will take every precaution to avoid any serious congestion and will endeavor to keep trafYic moving without Interruptions.
 The course of the parade will be from the Eagles club rooms to West Main street, Meadow street. Bank street, East Main street, Cher ry street, North Main street and back to the vicinity of the Soldiers monument where the different units will disperse. The parade headed by the national guards will start at 2:30 sharp.

the executive committee of the Ma
 tionaI Convention of Insurance Com-
 missioners.
 A committee of four state insur- ance commissioners has been
 named by the executive committee, in session here, to complete the
 vcntion of insurance commissioners
 q. Portland, Ore, next September. Wright, who died in 1885, found- ed the legal reserve system of life insurance, became the first insur-
 ance agent in the world, the first
 ttCtuary, and the first insurance com-
 missioner appointed by law. the in- sCrance men said.
 Through Wright's efforts the
 Massachusetts legislature enacted in 1858 a law compelling all life in-
 surance companies to protect their
 beneficiaries by building up adequate
 cash reserves.
 The effect of Wright's activities was to stabilize the insurance busi- ness which has grown to @ $100,- coo, 100000 industry which last year wrote life policies amounting to $20,000, 100000.
 Preliminary plans call for the or- ganization of an "Elizur Wright Memorial Association" to seek con- tributions from all insurance men. The memorial is expected to take the form of a monument which will
 c!ude a national headquarters for the insurance business. Considera- ton also is being given to a tempo
 rary memorial to Wright during the Worlds fair here in 1893.
 Bids for the memorial already
 have been made by Boston, Wash ington, D. C., and Des Moines Ia. Members of the memorial plans committee are Kess G. Read. of Ok lehoma; Charles D. Livingstone, of
 Michigan; Dan c. Boney, of North Carolina, and Mertin l.. Brown, of Massa chusetts.
