II MenSQUed
| From Mine

MICHEL, B. c., July 6 G.N.SD.
HeroiSm of the famed Canadian
draegermen was credited with saw
ing lives of II miners today fol
lowing a freak explosion in the
Crows Nest Pass Coal Company
mine which left three dead.
A lightning bolt flashed $500
feet into the depths of the mine
during a severe storm, causing ex-
|plosion of heavy gases. Hundreds
of tons of rock fell, blocking the
exit and trapping IA miners.
Draegermen from Fernie. %
miles away, rushed to the scene.
They were driven back on their
first attempt to reach the en-
tombed men, but a half hour later
they succeeded in freeing IL men.
Bodies of Edward Morrison, VIII
liam Cartwright and John Phillips
were found later buried in the
debris.

EARLY START SEEN
1t is understood the President
has told the Navy to call for bids
for the contract at the earliest
possible moment, with the hope
that considerable labor could be
employed by September.
In addition, Mr.. Roosevelt
wants order placed for the con-
struction material for its effect on
business. Plans are already
drawn and, barring unforeseen cir
cumstances, actual construction
work can be under way by Septem-
ber /.
Just what disposition the Navy
intends to make of the present
Naval Hospital is a question yet
to be decided. That institution is
understood to have been the first
naval astronomical observatory IT
the country and has considerable
historical value and sentiment
connected with it.

WOODRUM ASKS
.P POLITICIANS TO.
DECLARE TRUCE.
Urges Industry, Labor
Be Given Aid

UNIVERSITY, Va. July
G.N.SJ. - Representative Wood.
rum CD of Virginia, told the
Institute of Public Affairs at the
University of Virginia today that
If the nation Is to maintain eco
nomic stability. political leaders,
industry and labor must join in
greater cooperation.
First, our political leaders
must be willing to call truce
on playing partisan politics at
the expense Of our economic
structure" Woodrum asserted.
Second business, industry,
commerce and those who control
the finances Of our country must
be willing to recognize the rights
Of others, and to bear equitably
their proportionate cost of gov.
ernment in providing for emer.
gencieS.
LIVING WAGE NEEDED
Third, leaders in commerce
and in labor must be willing to
acknowledge and assume their
respective responsibilities to
the remainder of our citizen
ship"
Business, he said, must as
sumo the responsibility of pay
ing a living wage, providing Sc
curity and decent working con-
ditionS, and of outlawing child
labor.
SEEKS WORLD STABILITY
Broader cooperation with the
problems of foreign nations in an
effort to create world stability"
was urged by DR.. Frank Kingdom,
president of the University of
Newark, Newark. N. J.
DR.. Kingdom proposed: A phi
losophy of life that will clearly
define the values that lie in group
national, racial and relig-
ious; a basic restatement Of inter
national treaties. and a less rigid
of world trade.
Aside from all political conSid-
erationS, traffic can be hauled
over steel rails more cheaply than
it can be transported in any other
way, R. V. Fletcher, vice president
and general counsel of the ASSocia-

POSTAL SERVICE
LARGEST B ANK,
FARLEY CLAIMS.
Importance to Nation.
Is Stressed

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va, July
6 SO.-The postal service to
day compl ises the nations largest
savings bank, the largest express
business, the largest system for
the transfer of money and the
largest agency available to the
peop4e for the investment of their
savings in Government bonds,
Postmaster General James A. Far
ley said today in dedicating the
extension of the post office and
Federal building here.
100000 DEPOSITORS
He said the Government had in
its custody $1,250,000,000 in postal
savings belonging to 2,700,000 de-
poSitorS.
Because everyone uses the
postal service, because its ap-
peal is so general and its cover
age so universal, few people
4eolize how important it has
been TO the social and economic
Development of our country" he
said.
1T is my considered judgment
that never in the history of the
United States has the postal
service been operated on more
businesslike principles or with
greater measure of efficiency
that it is at the present time.
1t is with no spirit Of partisan
ship whatever, but as record
OF the truth, that make this
statement.
BUDGET BALANCED
I'VE are prone to speak Of
the objective of a balanced
budget as a consummation de-
voutly to be wished Well, the
postal budget Of this country
already is balanced. This is
true, Notwithstanding the fact
that the salaries paid to postal
employees now are greater than
at any time in the past"
Farley said that despite the
business reaction in the industrial
centers, postal receipts for the cur
rent fiscal year ARE holding their
own in a most satisfactory man
ner."

"Not a forgotten or overlooked
military grave in Ohio" This is the
objective, according to Brigadier
General Emil F. Marx, the adJutant

project which was launched this

to represent the states interests IN
the project and his office will have
official custody of all records when
compiled The American Legion,
Daughters of the American Revolu-
ton and other patriotic organiza-
tions have given support and VIII
cooperate in the survey. The WPA
workers will make a complete index
record of the graves as well as maps
showing the cemetery lot and exact
grave site, and will indicate wheth-
er the grave is monumented. Sim
liar projects have successfully oper-
ated in New Jersey and Wisconsin.
It is estimated that there are more
