NINE CONNECTS
 ARE PUNISHED

Lansing, Kan, June 20.-(UP)- Forty-three convicts who led more than 300 of their fellows in 21- hour mutiny 720 feet below the earth's surface in the state prison coal mine, were placed on bread and water diet to-day.
 Held in solitary" the leaders of the futile strike which ended without bloodshed, were denied the privileges accorded other inmates.
 A single blanket was the only furnishing in their cells. Their stay in solitary will be indefinite, prison authorities said.
 Meanwhile, other convict-miners were forced to repair the more than s25,o00 damage done by the mutineers who pulled down timber ing, started fires in the four miles of galleries and emerged only af- ter the smoke and flames were driven back upon them by reversed ventilating fans.
 Warden Lacey Simpson began an investigation of the underlying cause of the strike. He appeared to attach little weight to the req sons given by the miners them selves. who demanded better and more food and the dismissal of Dr. David F. Parker, prison physi- elan.

 A year ago Baker conceived the idea of converting Russia from its new communistic atheism. He went from Texas to Baltimore and ob- tained seaman's job on a Black Diamond boat. He drew $10 pay at Rotterdam, Holland, and got to Hamburg, Germany, with it. With no passport and no money Baker walked TOO miles on foot though Germany and Poland passing guarded frontiers, and got six miles within the Russian border where he was arrested last Sep tember.
 He was taken to detention camp near Minsk. His identity was esta blished after long delay and the foreign office notified the American embassy. Angus l. Ward, consular officer, was sent to see him.
 Ward found Baker, 3s, bricklayer by trade, six feet one in height and weighed 210 when he started his weighed 210 when he stared his 700-mile walk.
