Dental candidates, but that ne
would like to see, an agreement
between the two major parties
for late national conventions ana
a short 1914 campaign.
Reporting to a press conference
on trip through a dozen western
States, Mr.. Walker was asked II ne
wanted President Roosevelt to run
for a fourth term.
I'll not discuss candidates at this
time" he replied Il think 1t is a
mistake to discuss them now. 1t
is too early from the standpoint OF
the country and we should devote
all our time to prosecution Of the
war"
Wants Drive con High Plane"
Mr.. Walker added, however. he
would like to see the campaign next

to see it conducted on very
high plane"
Mr.. Walker told neWsmen he
heard many complaints from DEM
ocratic leaders during his tour OF
too many Republicans" IN Govern
ment Offices, particularly in OPA
and farm agencies in the field.
Asserting he had made no prom
ises to correct this, Mr.. Walker re-
called that at recent White House
conference between the President
and group of national committee
members some complaint had been
made about having two Repub-
licans-Mr. Knox and Mr. Stimson-
in the cabinet. He added that he

question that both the War and Navy
Secretaries were doing a good job"

discussion on his Western trip OF
the possibility of Gov. John w.
Bricker of Ohio or Wendell Willkie
being the Republican candidate next
yer. Asked who he believed would
be that party's nominee he replied
it was too early to talk candidates
in either party.
Asked About Fourth Term.
I'm each place 1 went I was asked
what thought about fourth term
and I said it was too early to dis.

Reiterating that the main job Of
the party and country is to get along
with the war he said he did not be-
lieve there was any need now for
concentrated action by the ma
tional committee for party activity.
He added, however, that the veteran
publicity chief of the committee.
Charles Nicholson, had been placed
back on the pay roll for duty, "as
long as he wants to stay" Mr.
Nicholson resigned his post several
months ago.
Walker reported that Democratic
party prospects for 1914 looked

Coal Miners Stay at Work
On Traditional Holiday
Py the Associated Press

Fy the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH, April 1.-For. the
first time in a decade, the majority
of thousands of miners in the Ap-
palachian soft-coal field remained
at work today on their traditional
greatest union holiday"
The United Mine Workers of
America originally named the OBJ
servance John Mitchell Day" in
honor of the late union president
who led the fight for the eight-hour
day. In recent years, adherents of
John L. Lewis, under whose regime
a seven-hour day was obtained
have called it John l.. Lewis Day"
Impromptu celebrations were
scheduled at some union halls dur
ing working hours.
Because of the war program and
the extra incentive of time-and-
one-half pay for the day, called for
in the union contracts as one of
eight annual holidays, most of the
miners entered the pits as usual.

William L. Hutcheson, general
president of the union, released a
survey by the organization which
said that 81 per cent of the manu-
facturers of the country expect to
employ as many or more persons
after the war than at present despite

the union asserted.
Under present Government regu-
lations, employment which insures
the necessary buying power for re-
covery will be cut drastically from
present estimates unless Federal re-
strictions on credit buying are lifted,
the report said.
Indicating concern over the
theoretical aim of Government econ-

regulations.

i. Mr.. Green pointed out that these

flict with cost of living figures given
out by the Government because the
latter include many items not used
by workers.
Mr.. Murray and Mr. Green made
clear that they did not raise the
question of general wage increases
to meet rising living cost with the
President. contending instead that
retail prices should be reduced and
held down rigidly to parallel wage
stabilization.
I'VE did not ask that wage stabili-

Mr.. Green said that one method
urged for dealing more effectively
with the problem was that labor
be given representation in the new
food setup headed by Mr.. Davis.
In response to questions, he SAID
the labor leaders assumed Mr.. Davis
would have full authority over food
prices, although that question was
not raised with the President.
He added that labor is dissatisfied
with the lack of representation in
such other Government agencies as
the War Production Board and the
War Manpower Commission. Mr.,
Murray emphasized desire for top
flight representation in those agen-
cies.

Even If you would like to say, IT

Asked about the bonuses for blood

explained:
You are right. The things you
mention are given to every blood
donor in Russia. But don't forget
that the regular rations are not like
here; they are on the small side.
Two hundred and seventy rubles
does sound like a great deal of
money for one pint of blood, but

you actually can buy for that sum.

In Moscow alone % hospitals make

persons donate day in that one
city. About nine-tenths of the

Northern roundhouse here, was killed
Tuesday afternoon at 4:30 when he
fell 40 feet from the top of scaf-
folding surrounding the tank.
Coroner j. A. Holland said there
were no eyewitneSseS to the acci-

the roof section of the tank and
apparently slipped in stepping from
it to the scaffolding.
He suffered a broken neck and
death was instantaneous.

ground to send up construction ma
terial.
Dempsey came here from Mime
apolis about a month ago to work
for the railway. Papers found at
the railway boarding car where he
lived showed he was a veteran of
the first World War.
Telegraphic inquiry TO the veter-

reply that he had no known rela-
tiveS or friends.
