RICHMOND, Va, June 10.
Woman's place may be in the
home, but if Virginia girls don't
watch out their husbands and
brothers are going to crowd
them out of it.
Or so it appeared when Miss
Martha Creighton, supervisor of
home economics for the State
Department of Education, re-
ported that more than 100 boys
took home economics courses in
Virginia high schools last year.
Not only that, but the boys
were far better cooks than their
sisters and girl friends, and
showed a remarkable talent for
several different aspects of
home-making, Miss Creighton
asserted.

Senate Commerce Committee
that he went to the most power

Mitchell appeared as the com.

COAL MINE
Hands in Air, Heads Bowed,
Kansas though Men" March
GIoomiIy Back to Cells

LANSING, Kan. June 10
U.N.S0. Smoke and fear today
brought an end to the mutiny Of
347 convicts deep in the Kansas
State Penitentiary coal mine.
The 21-hour strike was beaten
by authorities who com b n d
strategy and bravery to win their
end.
First, the blowers that supply
the vast mine. with air were re-
versed and the choking smoke of
the convicts' fire thus forced back
into the tunnels.
Then 81 guards, under Warden
Simpson, mere handful COM
pared with the throng Of belltger-
ents-invaded the depths and
crashed through the door behind
which the convicts had harricaded
themselves.
Hands Up In Surrender
The leveled guns of the guards
meaning quick death if they made
one false move, the mutineerS
threw up their hands in sur
render.
The mine, however, had been
reduced to a shambles. With
torch, pickaxe and shovel, the
desperate convicts wreaked heavy
damage during their 81 hours
below.
Warden Simpson said his brief
survey before conveying the pris-
oners above ground showed the
property loss would run into many
thousands of dollars and that re-
pairs would take several weeks.
A decision to take the mine
stronghold by storm was made by
the prison board after the strikers
released two of their IL hostages
with a repetition of their demand
for better food and new prison
doctor.
Fire, Smoke Reversed
They had already ripped off
sidings, overturned donkey carts,
and set everything inflamable on
fire. The billowing smoke gave
authorities the idea of reversing
the fans.
From the 1853 available guards,
q picked squad of 81 was chosen.
Armed with tommy-guns, rifles
and revolvers, they descended on
a lift behind the fire to the level
where the convicts had taken
their stand.
They broke in the loading
shaft door, finding most of the
rioting throng already submits

ing for mercy.
The guards lined up on either
side of the tunnel and the con-
victs were ordered out in single
file. They came in small groups

budget estimates 81 per cent, the
House Appropriations Committee
today reported the second de-
ficiency bill with a total of 1924"
472,561.
Budget estimates totalled 1885,
665, sol. The committee cut them
$780, 93, O4O.
While actual economies were
voted by the committee, the chief
reductions came by requiring use
of the $4,000, 100000 fund for
many works projects.
The committee fatty refused to
carry out an act of Congress au-
thorizing payment of $23.862, $50
to the Philippine Islands because
of gold devaluation.

Court decision, the committee de-
clared no actual loss had been
suffered by the Philippines on
their gold reserves held in the
United States Treasury through
devaluation of the dollar.
The bill carried 100000 to
launch a United States-to-China
air mail service, $84,000,000 for
public buildings, $19,984,00O for
the Navy, including armor for
new ships and $10,000,000 for
rivers and harbors.

$1,S50,OOO for the China mail
service, the committee said that
$1,000,000 probably would be suf-
ficient for the first fiscal year.

100000 for post offices outside the
District of Columbia was raised TO
10000 so that one building

Decision In Slot Machine Case In 70 DAYS
JUDGE DEFERS DECISION IN
GAMING MATTER FOLLOWING
HEARING in SUPERIOR COURT
Counsel for Slot Machine People Granted 70 Days
To File Memorandum; Case May Be Carried
To State Supreme Court

lowing a hearing here yesterday
taking the matter under advisement
for that length of time.
Judge Ross stated that the case
was of such great Importance ne
desired to study the matter over
carefully. "The case will probably
reach the state supreme court
whatever the decision" he stated
He requested the attorneys to submit
a memorandum of their points to
him for study.
Duane Bird, attorney for the slot
machine people, asked for time to
make the memorandum. Hence the
court gave him twenty days.
The slotters are now operating
under temporary restraining order,
issued by Judge Charles L.. Hardy,
which prohibits peace officers from
making arrests. This case will de-
eide whether or not the order will
be permanent.
The principal argument of County
Attorney E. r. Thurman is that
the law under which the slot ma
chimes are operating is null and void
because it is contrary to the provi-
sions of the gaming law which was
referred to the people of the state
and adopted.
1t was the contention of Attorney
Bird that the referred measure gave
the state legislature the power to
license slot machines.
Judge Ross stated that the i'm
portant point in his opinion was
whether or not those who paid Ii
censes we're exempt from prosecu-
ton under the gambling law. 1T
is understood that the referred law
still stands" he said.
Judge Ross, who presided at the
hearing here yesterday, is from
Bisbee.
