MERGER PUSHED
DESPITE THREAT
Injunction Plan Not to Delay
Cunard-White Star
Combination.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, March l5.-The British
government will proceed with the
merger Of the Cunard-White Star
shipping lines, despite the Injunction
threat of the International Mercantile
Marine Co. Neville Chamberlain,
chancellor of the exchequer, indicated
today in the House of Commons.
"The board of the Oceanic white
STAR Co." the chancellor said, has
been authoriJatively advised they may
legally implement their part in the
merger scheme without consent Of the
the American company"
P. A. S. Franklin. president of the
I. NJ. NJ. Co, in New York yesterday
threatened a suit to stop the merger,
which is being subsidized by the
Kaitish government, alleging the White
Star Line owed his company some
S11,000,000
II wish, however, to make it plain "
Chamberlain continued that if
contrary decision emerges as a result
of legal action, the parties can attain
by alternative methods which could
not be open to attack precisely the
result contemplated by the merger
company and such methods would be
within scope of the North Atlantic
shipping bill in its present form.
In these circumstances, l have
satisfied myself, no reason exists why
the House should be DETECTED from
its purpose by any action which may
be taken by the International Mer-
camille Marine"
The public also displayed interest in
the report, since it has, with varying
degrees, given a general Endorsement
to the governments ALLEGATION of sew
eral million dollars to finish the build
ing of the new Cunard liner 534, on
condition the merger is carried
through.
London newspapers printed detailed
accounts Of the statement by Franklin
as well as a rebuttal by a spokesman
for the Cunard and White Star lines.
The spokesman implied he was con-
fdent Franklin was making a mistake
if he expected to succeed in his in
junction and profesSed to have strong
legal assurance that there is nothing
which could affect the progress Of the
merger.
Franklin had threatened a suit to
stop the consolidation and spoke of
sums due his company from the
White Star Line.

EUGENE, Greg, March 15.-A
new method of making charcoal,
which works on the principle of
both keeping your cake and eat

the University Of Oregon.
A stream of Clipped wood Is
fed into a new type of rotating
cylinder. Heat drives the gases
out of the wood, and these gases
are burned to make the cylinder
hot enough to carbonize the
wood.
A little starting" heat is re-
quired, but most of the heat is
supplied by the wood chips which
are turning into carbon. The
process was invented by o. F..

Custer Disaster Messenger

TN THE gray twilight of the dawn
of June %, 1876, the men on the
steamer Far West, tied up on the
banks of the Little Big Horn river
in Montana, were awakened by a
splutter of rifle fire. AS they
rushed on deck, they saw a horse
man galloplng furiously up the val
ley, turning now and then in his
saddle to fire back at the whooping
Indians who were pursuing him.
When the redskins saw the steamer
the gave up the pursuit and the
lone hOrseman dashed up. Spring
Ing from his saddle, he staggered
on to the Far West and gasped out !:
Cluster and all his men have been
wiped out by the Sioux! ~
He was "Muggins" Taylor. a
scout attached to General Gibbons
command, on his way to Fort Ellis
with dispatches from his command
er. Discovered by the Indians he
had been forced to run for his life
and only the lucky chance of his
finding the Far West where he did,
saved him from death at the hands
Of the savages.
Two days later Taylor left the
Far West when it steamed out of
the Big Horn into the Yellowstone
and set out on his long. lonely ride
Of 175 miles to Fort Ellis. A hun
dred miles from his starting place
he reached an old stage station on
the Yellowstone where lived Hor-
ace Countryman, an old scout and
Indian fighter. Taylor was so ex-
hausted that he was unable to go
on, but the next day, accompanied
by Countryman. he set out on a
fresh horse and reached Fort Ellis,
where he again told his tragic story
to a group Of Mortified listeners.
In the meantime Countryman had
continued on to Bozeman, where he
expected to be able to spread the
tidings Of Clusters fate over a gov
ernment telegraph wire. But on his
arrival there he found the govern
ment wire down and useless, so he
continued on to Helena which he
reached about noon on July 4.
There he told the news to Andrew
]. Fisk, an Associated Press CORE
spondent, and that afternoon Fisk
flashed to the world the first news
of the disaster on the Little Big
Horn-a feat made possible by the
daring ride Of "Muggins" Taylor.
After the Indian wars were over
Taylor became a peace officer in
Montana and was killed in the town
of COulson in October, 1882, by a
drunken ne'er-do-well named Lump
or Lemp who shot Taylor down
when the deputy sheriff attempted
to arrest him.

and somber your divided skirts
or your Norwegian-style trousers
(either are in fashion) may be, the
top of your costume, to be chic,
must intrigue the eye with riot
of color. Jackets and sweaters
(twin sweaters are the rage), like
wise scarfs and caps and the gloves
that go with them make animated
color their theme.
AS rampant as color is and as
delightfully."- frivolous as current
snow togs may seem to all appear
ance, when it comes to genuine
practically sports clothes as now
designed are amazingly utilitarian,
in that they are provided with all
sorts of devices which add to their
comfort and their wearableness.
For instance, the girl skating in
the foreground of the accompanying
illustration is wearing we'll
styled divided skirt of fine-wale cor
duroy which has a versatile waist
band which can be so regulated by
means Of an adjustable slide fasten-
er as to fit the waistline to six
teenth Of an inch. Instead of wear
ing trousers this smartly clad young
enthusiast prefers a becoming di-
vlded skirt which has the graceful
and feminine lines OF sports skirt,
but with all the freedom Of move
ment that trousers afford.
AS to what is new and what is
colorful in winter sports togs here

DESIGN FUR COATS

Women have a way of getting
what they want. When they de-
manded fur coats in trotteur length,
the designers got busy and turned
out some extremely dashing models.
These coats that are neither long
nor short are especially suited to
the youthful, boyish figure.
This seasons versions include
straight, belted or swagger types.
Some have yokes. Collars are stand
ing, Peter Pan or cravat. Sleeves
relate the story that has been
going the rounds this year: Pleats
or shirring at the shoulders, full
ness below the elbow.
Short-haired furs, such as lapln.
galyak and kid are the happiest
choices for the fur trotteur that is
belted or swagger. Seal and krim-
mer make handsome straightline
finger-tip length coats.

because of its effective color
scheme.
For sheer practically, with lots
of style added, the model shown to

of sturdy Norwegian corduroy trou-
sers topped with chamois vest, a
turtle-neck white sweater and
flannel jacket, the latter an extra
protection when wintry blasts grow
fierce. The chamOls vest Is bOr-
dered with metal fastener so that
it Is easily put back to serve as
coat lining. 1t heightens the
color effect when the vest is dyed
a bright green or red although many
are buying these chamois sleeve
less jackets in natural color.

Fifty Famous
.FrOntiersmen
Hank Monk, Stage Driver
By
ELMO SCOTT WATSON


InF ALL the men who guided
~ the numbering Concord stage
coaches across the plains and over
the mountains of the West in the
days before the railroad came, none
was more famous than Hank Monk.
He Is not so much remembered,
however, as he should be-for being
the driver, who, on July 80, 1858,
brought the first coach mail over
the western terminus at Placerville,
Callf.-as he is for being the man
who once "squelched" the great Hor-
ace Greeley.
The story Of Hank and Horace is
one Of the classics Of the West. In
1859 Greeley made a trip to the Pa
cific coast and 1t happened to be
Hank Monk who was on the bridge"
of the coach which took the re-
nowned Fastener out of Carson
City, New. AS they started, Greeley
leaned out Of the window and In
formed Hank that he expected to
be In Placerville right on time so
he could catch the connecting
coach for Sacramento.
Hank was not accustomed to TAX
Ing orders from anyone, least of all
from an eastern tenderfoot. But he
only smiled blandly and said "All
right" The first few miles Of the
trip were upgrade and Hank had to
take 1t slow. But when he reached
the crest Of the Sierras he began to
throw the leather" into his six
horse team. Down the rocky trail
thundered the heavy coach, bounc-
ing and lurching over rocks and
| chuckholes.
Three times the terrified eastern
er tried to lean out the window and
shout some more advice. But every
time he was thrown back into the
coach. The fourth time he sue
ceeded and to his shrieked COM
mands to Hank to slow down, that
Western Jehu shouted back gaily,
keep your seat, Horace! I'll get
you there on time" And he did |!
When the admiring pOpulace of
Placerville heard the story they
presented Hank with a gold watch
engraved with these words: Keep
your seat, Horace" and for the next
half century that became a by-word
when a westerner ganted to rebuke
impatience.
There was another aftermath to
the incident, however. When Cree
ley was a candidate for President,
Monk sent word to Horace that If
he was elected it might be a pleas
ant memento of their ride together
II Greeley would give him some easy
government Job. To this the testy
editor replied: 81 would rather see
you ten thousand fathoms In HI
than give you even a crust of bread.
For you are the only man who ever
had it In his power to put me In a
ridiculous light before the Ameri-
can people, and you villalnously ex-
erclsed that power"
