DON'T QUOTE ME

Washington, July 1e-(UP)-- The $8O0,OO0, ,O00 St Lawrence wa- terway treaty was signed by Sec retary of State Stimson with all the dignity such a big project de. serves but without benefit of gold pens.
 The cefemony took place in the spacious high-ceilinged room that Stirnson uses for his press confer ences. Stimson used the regular state department pen, with a new steel point.
 So also did William D. Herridgo in behalf of Canada.
 Stinson signed first. The dotted line was pointed out by Sidney Y. smith one of the oldest attaches of the department. He is con7 nected with the treaty division and supervises the drafting and signing of all treaties. smith also had to point out to Herridge the proper place to sign.
 At smiths left elbow stood smiling Eddie Savoy, aged mes- senger, who greets visitors outside Stimson's office Eddie's features were lighted by candle which he UeIu lllS IAS nI HI tAAO WAY he held stick of ordinary red sealing wax.
 When the signatures had been written, Smith took the candle and wax melted drop of the latter which he allowed to drop on the gay red silk ribbon which bound the momentous document. On the still soft wax he impressed the pri- vate signet rings of 'Stimson and Herridge.
 It was all very proper and off, cial. Had there been no signet rings, the official seal of the high contracting parties would have been used Instead.
 The treaty is regarded as of the greatest importance by Gov Frank lin D. Roosevelt, whose corre- spondences with President Hoover on the subject recently attracted the attention of the politically. minded. New York is skeptical of the treaty procedure. She feels her water power rights might be jeop- ardized.
 But even the political experts at tach no importance to the fact that the name of New York does not appear at all in the treaty. Chi cago is mentioned twice because of the part the Chicago drainage canal plays in the project.

MINERS DIETING k COURT ORDER OF
 ]. NO PICKETINC
They Are Starving Out in Indiana and Want to Be Arrested So. They Can Get Food
By STEVE RICHARDS

(Un1tcd Press Stan COrrcSpOn0ent)
 Sullivan, Ind, July 19.-(UP)- Starvation and an impending threat of violence gripped western In- diana's coal fields to-day. Not for 35 years, authorities say, has the mine situation been so critical.
 Hungry coal diggers defied a court restraining order against picketing-hoping for arrest so they will obtain food. Cooperative miners of the Ebbw Vale and Hoosier mines near here feared to run the gauntlet of union pickets to work. Sheriff Wesley Williams had. only five deputies to control thousands of miners.
 At the HOosier mine tentative orders were issued for men to re- turn to work to-day. Union men, out of work since wage agree ments expired March 31. said they would use force to prevent oper- ation
 Yesterday 1,50O idle miners marched on the Ebbw Vale shaft. They tore miners clothes from racks, soaked them in oil and hurled them down the shaft.
 "We don't want to fight" said Myrick owens, grim little director of the Ebbw Vale mine, but we're prepared. Our men are be- coming bull-nosed.
 He pointed to several miners sauatting by, the cage. Revolvers dangled at their sides. Shotguns were nearby.
 owens said he had wired Judge Martin Pigg of Sullivan circuit court, who issued the order against picketing, demanding that he re- turn immediately from his vacation in Kentucky.
 williams described the situation at the Hoosier mine as "touchy.
 "Everybody is on edge" he said. "A serious conflict may break out any moment"
 Williams said he. had conferred with Governor Harry G. Leslie but hesitated to ask for state troops for fear of aggravating matters.
 aThey did that, about 35 years ago and there was plenty of trou- ble," he said.
 At the Dixie Bee mine at Pimen- to. several miles north of here, work progressed quietly on a nom union basis. A half dozen guards. au heavily armed. strolled about. The night boss nodded signihcant. Iy when asked if the report that d machine gun was mounted m the tipple was true.
