COAL MINES OPERATING
AFTER STRIKE IN UTAH
Lack of Friction Between Union
Men and Employers Taken
to Indicate Peace.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
SALT LAKE CITY. Utah, September
9-Utah coal mines are working and
those in charge report no trouble. The
strike which was called there about
two weeks ago under leadership Of
Communist agtators, and against the
advice of the United Mine Workers,
seems to have been crushed. Leaders
of those who went out. many Of whom
are aliens, were arrested and will be
tried for rioting. Persistent rumors
were heard during the Labor day cele-
bration held at Price. center Of the coal
country of Utah, that more strikes
would be called Tuesday. Nothing hap
pened, however and officials believe
the trouble is over. There Is no fric-
tion between mine operators and the
regular union men.
More men are working in Utah and
the general feeling is better. A great
department store which has been va
cant for more than year is now oc-
cupied and doing good business.
A smelter near Salt Lake City has
increased its capacity and Is employ
ing IS more men, and packing COM
pany in North Salt Lake is starting
extensive improvements on its plant.
In addition to these, many Arms in
this city and State have added a few
to their list of employees. and this Is
having good effect.

DETROIT. September 9.-The reac-
ton of the Nation to the attitude Of
Henry Ford is causing no end Of ap-
prehension in this depression stricken
area
While admittedly alarming, 1t is not
surprising to those who have watched
his career to see Henry Ford standing
as an individualist at time when the
political leaders of the country are
bent on cooperation between Govern
ment, industry and labor.
1t is remembered when the world
was at war he sent peace ship to
the warning nations, when the coun-
try was Jazz mad he led in quadrilles
and waltzes to revive interest IN the
old dances, and when modern archttec-
ture became the order Of the day he
spent millions in building his Colonial
village at Dearborn to revive interest
in Colonial architecture. Always, 1t Is
pointed out, Henry Ford has taken the
nan-biting the-dog attitude.
Expected to Become Fan.
In MANY quarters the seriousness Of
the situation is discounted, the belief
prevailing that unless some one in au-
thority says too much pending the time
he chooses to speak. Ford will emerge
probably with something a little dif-
ferent but fundamentally one Of the
best and leading N. r. A. fans IN the
country.
Again, if he continues in his failure
to cooperate and the grimaces at
Washington become a demand for the
threatened boycott, the future Of thou
sands of employees as well as that OF
the fourth largest city will be at stake.
A favorite prophecy Of those who
indulge in that uncertain pastime OF
guessing what Henry Ford will do Is
that the oft-repeated rumor will prove
true, the one he is about to produce a
car which will sell SO far below the
market price Of his competitors that
he will put a motor minded, bargain
hunting public up against test OF
patriotism both interesting and vital,
providing there are no Blue Eagles on
the cars.
Sensation Promised.
The grand jury investigation prom
ises another front-page sensation with
the report that Senator Couzens will
take the stand second time and di-
vllge names and sources OF informa-
ton to substantiate his charges of
misconduct in bank management. His
previous testimony has been subject
of attack on the ground most OF 1t was
anonymous.
In the last week the Blue Eagle
drive has been carried on intensively
and with gratifying results. Michigan,
aside from the Ford episode, is re-
spending Fundamentally to the CO.
operative appeal. However. many re-
ports of cheaters are beginning to pour
into headquarters.
The people in the last week have
been endeavoring valiantly to forget
their troubles by flocking in their Gus
tomarv thousands to the Harmsworth
boat races on the picturesque Detroit
River, which separates Canada from
the United States. Both sides Of the
river were jammed for hours as this
historic annual event progressed.

PENNSYLVANIA SPECIAL SESSION
TO CONSIDER REVENUE AND AID

Financial aid for bankrupt school

are not available, have predicted they
will be unable to finance schools un-
aided after January. Although $685.
000, 900 Is required to meet that States
minimum school obligations for the
current two years, the regular legis-
lative session last Spring provided only
$4,000, 900 and made no provision for
q special fund to aid distressed dis
tricts. Some school boards in rural and
bituminous counties have drawn their
funds in advance to keep schools open
to the end OF 1888.
DR.. James N. Rule. superintendent OF
public instruction, has advocated res
toration Of the $4,000, 900 cut from the
school fund, but has said repeatedly
creation of an emergency fund OF
$5.000,000 or s10,00O,000 is more i'm
portant In order to prevent interrup-
ton Of education of children this Win
ter. Finding revenue to provide the
added school money will be one of
the problems Of the special session.
Consultations Considered.

tricts into more populous units also
may be revived. A plan to merge 1851
districts into 500 failed Of action in the
regular session last Winter.
Unemployment relief will be inter-
locked with several other issues in the
approaching session. In appropriating
$38, ,000, 900 for relief, the Legislature
granted only $1s,o00,o00 from current
funds and appropriated $4,000, ,00C
from the $25 5,00O,0 bond issue fol
State expenses to be voted upon In
November. If the bond issue fails, new
money must be provided.
Should unemployment continue .,
the present rate, with the consequent
reduction in number Of families on re-
lief, the financial requirements for ths
unemployed may leave portions of the
relief appropriation available for othel
purposes. A general revision Of present
appropriations may be necessary, es-
pecially If liquor taxes fail to produces
enough new money for schools and the
jobless in addition to balancing the
budget which faces probable deficit OF

TRENTON, N. j., September 9.-New
Jersey Is preparing to carry into the
Supreme Court Of the United States a
dispute with Pennsylvania over collec-
ton OF $12,240,000 inheritance taxes
from the estate Of the late DR.. John
r Dorrance, founder Of the Campbell
Soup Co. Of Camden, N. J.
Both States have filed claim against
the $50, 0,000, 900 estate on the basis Of
residency. Pennsylvania, by outmaneu-
vering the executors, has collected more
than $4,000, 900, but New Jersey Of
ficials have decided to press the claim.
Attorney General Stevens Is proceeding
with plans to fight Pennsylvania, al
though Gov. Moore and other leaders
have shown q disposition to accept a
$5,000,000 compromise offered by the
estate.
The case is considered by leading
lawyers and jurists here as one OF the
most involved domicilary cases in years
and its ultimate disposition is expected
to become a standard case on residency.
Dorrance lived in Cinnaminson
township, Burlington County, most of
his life, but bought large estate at

| HARRISBURG, Pa, September O.
I Pennsylvania fifth legislative ses-
sion in less than three years will con-
vene about the middle Of November.
A special session is to be called within
a week or two after voters of the State,
on November Z, ballot on repeal Of the
eighteenth amendment.
While repeal will be the factor de-
termining the time of calling the ses-
sion, it will be only one of a dozen or
more issues which the legislators will
be called upon to consider. Emergency
funds for distressed school districts, re.
viSed plans for unemployment relief,
Gov. Pinchot's proposal to make State
highways Of $4,000 additional miles of
rural roads, labor legislation. -balanc-
ing the State budget, and probably
milk marketing legislation are expected
to share the lawmakers attention.
Action by the electorate in Novem-
Der on proposed amendments to the
State Constitution may add to the list
of subjects. If a s25,000, 900 bond issue
for State expenses is defeated. new
taxes besides one on liquor will be pro-
posed If proposed bond issues for
$50,000,000 for soldiers bonus and
s10,000,000 to purchase and free toll
bridges are approved, enabling legisla-
tion will be required to make them ef-
fectlve.
Control Bills Up.
Although delegates Pennsylvania will
elect on November z on the repeal issue
will not meet until December S, it is
expected the fate of prohibition in the
nation will be known by the time No.
vember polls close. Recalling the Leg
islature almost Immediately will permit
control and tax laws to be passed before
repeal becomes effective, avoiding the
situation which existed when beer was
legaltzed. Then Pennsylvania had no
regulatory or taxing laws until almost
q month afterward.
An entirely new State law will be nee
essary to control liquor. The Snyder
Armstrong enforcement act of 1928,
which repealed all prior liquor laws,
will become Ineffective automatically II

GAME A ISOLATION WOULD
RAISE WOLF B0UNTIEs TO $40

At a recent meeting the Tana-
na-Yukon Game Protective and
Propagation Association went on
record to memorabilia the Territor-
ial legislature for an appropriation
of $4,000 to introduce elk into the
Interior, in conformity with session
laws of 1922. At the same time a
resolution will be presented ask
ing the legislature to draw UP a
memorial to Congress requesting
Federal funds to assist in control
of predators.
At the present time the Territory
pays a bounty of SIS for wolves
and coyotes. This Is viewed insult
ficient by the association to reduce
their numbers and it desires that
Congress make available a sum suf-
ficient for a $50 bounty on every
animal. Such action, it is felt,
would induce trappers to devote
much of their time to hunting pred
atory animals.

DUNCAN CANAL DEER MORE
PLENTIFUL THAN LAST YEAR

Otis H. Speer came in Thursday
from the head of Duncan's Canal
on Kupreanof Island where he trap
ped during the season. He reports
that deer are more plentiful in that
region than last winter and that
they have wintered better. They are
all quite lively yet and seem in fair
shape.
Wolves are not numerous now in
that region. Speer, who has trapped
there for the past three winters,
Killed ten the first two years and
but one this year. During the past
winter he found only two deer kill
ed by wolves. 1t would naturally
seem that his destruction of the
wolves two and three winters ago
has been of much value to the deer
herds.

Extension Director
Here For Ten Days

Mrs. Lydia Fohn-Hansen of the
Extension Service in Home Eeonom-
les who is making a field trip to
southeastern Alaska, arrived in
Wrangell on the Northland last eve-
ming. She will be in Wrangell ten
days to conduct free demonstrations
on subjects pertaining to home max
ing. The cooking demonstrations
will be given at the high school
cooking laboratory, the time to be
announced later. One demonstration
will be on marketing with an ex-
hibit showing how to buy canned
and packaged goods.
Besides the demonstrations Mrs.
Fohn-Hansen will also give individ-
ual help in sewing priblems. A fitted
foundation pattern is a great help
to the home dressmaker. 1t is made
full length and fitted properly at
shoulder, sleeve and hip. 1t is then
ripped apart and may be used for
slips, aprons, nightgowns, or dresses
Anyone desiring such a pattern
should make an appointment with
Mrs. Fohn-Hansen at the Wrangell
Hotel.
Hand loom weaving has proven
very popular with women who have
had an opportunity to use the port
able loom, Those wishing to make
scarfs or bags should make an ap-
pointment early.
Extension Service is supported
largely by Federal money from the
Department of Agriculture. Ross L.
Shelly has charge of the work in
agriculture and DR.. ]. B. Lotus
directs the work in fur farming.
Many free bulletins are available
on farming, gardening and home
making. Requests for these should
be sent to the Extension Service.
