Charles Winfield Waterman, United
States Senator from Colorado, died here
yesterday, threatening Republican con-
troll of the Senate for the remainder OF
President Hoovers term.
The Colorado Republican died early
yesterday in his apartment at the
Wardman Park Hotel after a long ILL
ness. He was II years old and his term
would have ended next March 4.
If a Democrat should be elected in
November to succeed Waterman for the
remainder of the Seventy-second Con-
gress the Democrats would have a voting
strength of 48, while the Republicans
would have At. with one Farmer-Labor
Senator, ShipStead of Minnesota, hold
ing the balance of power.
Senator Waterman had announced he
was not candidate for reelection.
Republicans would not necessarily
lose control of the Senate even if a
Democrat were elected to succeed
Waterman. Senator ShipStead has voted
with the Republicans for organization
purposes in the past and, If he con-
tinued, the Republicans could tie the
Democratic strength and Vice President
Curtis would have the deciding vote
In event of the election of a Demo-
crat, though, ShipStead could throw the
control to the Democrats by refraining
from voting or casting his ballot with
them.

attempted to unseat Senator Moses, Re-

CHICAGO, August 27 GC.PA).-
Beleaguered Franklin County coal
miners, repelling an invasion Of strik-
ers from neighboring counties in South
ern Illinois, contended that they were
fighting for the right to work.
Invading strikers, driven back, their
forces now disrupted, claim that their
show of numbers was intended simply
to induce miners in working fields to
join them in protest against the new
SIS a day basic wage and against condi-
tions existing in the industry.
So intense has been the feeling be-
tween those who want to work and can
work and those who want to protest,
often because they can't get work, that
some officials have feared the outbreak
of civil war in the Illinois coal counties.
Now, however. coal operators say that
the men who want to work and can
work are winning out. More than u.s.

Union leaders. as we'll as mine oper-
ators, are supporting the new wage
scale.
At the bottom of the conflict in
Southern Illinois and in Indiana lies a
long series of difficulties extending over
the past 10 years. Throughout that
time ccal mining in this State has been
a declining industry. attended by serious
unemployment and by all Of the
problems that accompany q long
impoverished labor supply.
All Cannot Find Work.
If all Illinois miners could be assured
of work at the $5 rate agreed upon by
officers of the United Mine Workers and
the coal operators there might be no
trouble in the fields today. But, at most,
$4,000 men out of the 1000 900 or more
available miners will be employed.

Many miners of foreign extraction. i'm
ported during the boom days In the
industry, are described as among the
"outs."
From the time of the Herrin massacre
in the GUNNER of 1922. when % strike
breakers were slaughtered. there have
been serious differences in the Illinois
and Indiana coal districts. The Ku
Klux Klan figured prominently in the
troubles for a number Of years, when S.
Glenn Young, meek appearing two-gun
man, stirred up the countryside. Fl
nally he and Ira Thomas, his foe. fought
a gun duel to the death in Herrin.
The Klan prejudices are reported not
to have been eliminated entirely with
the passage Of time. AS coal markets
were lost to the East and employment
dwindled, lines Of cleavage developed
between the fortunate employed and
the less fortunate unemployed.
Eastern Costs Lower.
From statistical standpoint It ap-
pears that workers in the Illinois and
Indiana mines cannot expect the in
dustry to compete with lower-cost East
ern mines, if wages are as far out of
line as they have been in recent years.
The rich Chicago district market has
almost been lost, due to price differ
ences, and acceptance Of the new wage
scale may make it possible to win back
this business with attendant increase
in employment. ,tt! -!

THE EARMARKS OF A GOOD
DOCTOR

On general ethical principals it is
clearly the duty Of the medical pro-
feSslon everywhere to make it easy
for a stranger to find reputable
physician when there is need of one.
But owing to poor organization and
the lack of leadership the medical
profession fails in this duty to the
public in most large communities.
Here and there the local medical
society maintains a central office or
information bureau, where anybody
may call or telephone to ask for the
name and office address of reliable
physician or even for specialist.
This plan proves satisfactory in the
smaller towns. In the larger cities
1t is not SO satisfactory. for various
1easons-too many physicians, too
wide an area. However, in some large
cities several such bureaus are MAIN
tanned in different sections of the
city. and this is at least better than
no service at all.
In the largest cities it is coming
to be the, custom of the profession
to publish in the local newspapers
from time to time complete list of
members of the local medical society.
OF course it does not follow that a
doctor is a good doctor or even reli-
able just because he happens to hold
membership in medical society, but
still if a stranger chooses a doctor
who is vouched for, as to his pro-
fessional standing. by the local aca-
denny of medicine or county medical
society the chances are that the doc
tor is okeh.
