INDEPENDENT COAL
OPERATORS ADOPT
NRA CODE FOR n. D.
Demand Regulation Of Trade
Practices BY Larger
Firms, However

Independent coal mine operators,
meeting in Bismarck Monday, in
formed General Hugh s. johnson,
national recovery administrator, that
they could not exist under the ma
tional recovery plan unless alleged
discriminatory practices by the larger
mines in the sale Of coal are aban-
doned.
The Independent Coal Operators
association was made a permanent
organization and is preparing a code
for the small underground operators
which will be sent to General John
son for his approval. The tentative
code adopted provided for the fol-
lowing minimum scale of wages:
Hand mining or solid shooting In
entries. 80 cents per ton.
Hand mining in rooms, go cents
Machine cut coal in rooms, 40 cents
per ton.
Machine cut entry coal, 50 cents
per ton.
Outside labor, 80 cents per hour.
Underground labor, IS cents per
hour.
The scale, adopted after consider
able discussion, is admitted to be
minimum and it will be necessary to
pay a higher scale in some parts of
the state. On account of the differ
ing thicknesses of coal seams it was
difficult to arrive at uniform scale
for every section of those present
at the meeting said.

POSTAL DEPARTMENT.
May INVESTIGATE
bond COMP ANY ACTS
Secretary Of Securities COM
mission Asks Postmaster
General For Probe

Investigation by the United States
postal authorities of the Bankers Un-
ion Life Company of Denver, Colo,
has been asked by James Mulloy,
secretary Of the North Dakota indus
trial commission.
In a telegram to Postmaster Gen
eral James A. Farley, Mulloy states
that the company was suspended
some two months ago for violation of
the North Dakota securities act and
1t Is now soliciting the surrender of
their bonds from bond holders in this
state by use of the mails. "The in
depreciation placed upon the sur
render value of their bonds Is a resor>
to trickery," he declared in the tele-
gram.
United States District Attorney p.
w. Lanier has asked for data con-
corning the operations of the COM
pany, especially regarding its use of
the mails.
The company has sold approxi-
mately $4,000 worth Of five-year
payment, 12-year endowment bonds
In the state, the annual payments on
which are $50 per year. The bonds
are without an insurance benefit.
License to sell the bonds was granted
to the company July II, 1880.
Nearly year ago the securities
commission discovered that the COM
pany was endeavoring to secure sur
render Of its bonds on terms that
were not to the advantage of the
bond holders.
The bonds provide that after the
second annual payment the surrender
value is five shares Of stock in the
company valued at $50 per share and
$3.50 in cash or $3l36O. At the end
of the third year period, according to
the schedule on the bonds, the sur
render value Is five shares Of stock
and $227.60 in cash.
Would Pay Less
The company attempted to get the
bond holders to surrender the bonds
after the third payment for five
shares of stock and $63.60 in cash.
The commission and the attorney
general contend that the value should
be $227. go and upon the refusal of the
company to abide by the decision 1t
was suspended on May Is.
Roy E. Houghton, salesman for the
company who was attempting to Sc
cure the surrender of the bonds in
this state, was arrested in South Da-
kota and will be tried in Burleigh
county at the next term of court for
attempting to defraud the bondhold-
ers. Since its suspension here in May
the company has had recourse to
the mails and is telling bond holders
they voluntarily withdrew from the
state, Mulloy said.
The company Is under fire in Colo
rado, Mulloy said, and a committee
has been appointed to protect the
interests of bondholderS In that state.

BY the Associated Press.

frightened considerably when he real
lied the jury had not convicted him on
the first count, charge Of assault with
intent to kill, as demanded by the State.
The case grew out of police raid on
reputed headquarters of the Capone

covery Nitti was put on trial and ac-
quilted when Lang refused to testify
and q fellow officer said from the stand

Then the charges were switched to
the officer and during his recent trial

because of his war on gangsters.

Venice's Isolation Ended
butte Standard J

For 1,400 years Venetians
cherished their "splendid isola-
ton" No enemy could reach
the island Of Venice by land.
Navigation was difficult in the
lagoon that separated it from the
mainland. Venetians traversed
it in fiat-bottomed gondOlas and
fioated their houses on piles in
the alluvial mud.
A part Of this isolation was
lost when an iron railway via
duct was strung across the La
guna Venetia in 1886. But it
was not until last month that
the Pearl of the Adriatic" was
attached to Italy's mainland by
any kind of a road. The new
highway, of brick, stone and
concrete, is five and half miles
long, two and d half miles of it
being a bridge over the lagoon
proper.
Venetians had been arguing
about a road to the mainland
since 1898. Long-range guns
made Venice's isolation value
less as a defense, but many still
clung to the tradition about
which the city's reputation had
been built. 1t was not until 1881
and then only on direct order
of Premier Mussolini - that
work on highway into Venice
was begun.
Lovers may still go to Venice
to float on the moonlit waters in
silent gondolas propelled by the
picturesque gondoleers. But the
music of guitars and the dip of
the paddles will be accompanied
by honking of horns, the purr of
motors and the smell of exhaust
gas of arriving and departing
automobiles. A night in VENICE
can hardly be the same again.
