WASHINGTON, Sept. 15-(P)
President Roosevelt today or
dered the seizure of 10 strike
hampered soft coal mines in
West Virginia and Kentucky,
bringing to "a the total number
of bituminous mines taken over
by the government since Au-
gust 81.
In an executive order the
President directed Secretary of
the Interior ISckeS to take pos
session of the Mines because
there are Interruptions of the
operations" and the reflective
prosecution of the war will be
unduly impeded or delayed by
such Interruptions"
Labor disputes among super
visory employees forced the
mines into idleness. The Ma
tional War Labor Board directed
termination of strikes in the
mines several days ago but in a
letter to the President, Lloyd K.
Garrison, public member of the
WLB, said there has been mo
compliance with these orders"
The mines involved in today'S
seizure have been producing
about $4,000 tons of bituminous
coal a day. About 800 super
Visory employees are engaged in
the work stoppages, which are
affecting approximately 1900
production employees, who have
been unable to work without SUI
pervisory personnel" Garrison
said

The weird bow and yardstick shot
was reported in st. Louis. Darlene
Anderson and her small brother, Don
aid, were playing on the back porch.
He stretched the bow. and the yard
stick whizzed through hole In the
screen door. In the house IT struck
the trigger of a rifle pointing to-
wards the porch. There was loud
report, a flash OF fire and the bullet
passed through Darlene's body.

lieves in keeping 10 the fore
front, came into existence AS
the result OF a letter received
by Rep. Hale from Henry T.
Donohue of Chicago.
nONOHUE said he believed
~ civilization could be saved
If Rep. Hale would push his
plan through Congress. After
a long preamble filled with sus-
pense, the author disclosed that
all that had 10 be done was
decapitate the mountains afore-
mer toned.
Donohue said the Rockies and
AlleghenieS are causing air
pressure which brings too much
rain 10 certain portions and
drought 10 others. They are
also using up valuable space.
II the mountainous were re-
moved, he continued. millions
Of square miles of productive
land would become available in
America and the foreign refugee
problem could be solved. He
added that il. would also bring
America closer together as
there would be no longer such
distinctive regions AS the Allan
tic and Pacific seaboards.
Furthermore. people would
not go around sticking up their
noses merely because they live
east or west OF the Rockies.
Well. Rep. Hale discussed this
remarkable proposition wit h
other congressman and the idea
caught on like wildfire. Prac-
tically every time a bunch OF
congressman get together now
they toss in added suggestions
for the Rockbottom Hale Up
heaval Corp.
Rep. Hale, who is one OF the
best deadpan kidders on Cap
itol Hill, took the matter UP
with Rep Hal Holmes of Wash
ing on State. Hale said he was
prepared TO sacrifice every
noun ain top in Maine IL
Holmes would only agree TO
knock of the Rockies.
HOLMES demurred. He said
H the people Of Washington
have become attached to the
Rockies.
"You are q reactionary. that's
what you are Hale accused
Holmes. II suppose you are go
ing to tell me that the Rockies
were good enoungh for your
grandfather and they are good
enough for you:"
ITS not that 80 much" said
Holmes. II have Just sort of
gotten used to them"
THAT IL not being liberal or
forward-lookIng," said Hale.
"Your attitude IL one that all
progressive people should de-
plore. BE broad now, and give
up the Rockies"

consideration by the Rockbot-
tom Hale Upheaval Corp, Of
which Rep. Robert Hale of
Maine is president and board OF
directors.
The projects rIdlculously
simple. II merely calls for re-
moval of the tops of the Rocky
and Allegheny mountains.
The Rockbotton Hale Up
heavsl Corp. naturally takes its
name from Rep. Hale. who had
the title "Rockbottom" con-
ferred upon him by his con-
gresslonal colleagues after a
lady pinched him in mistake for
Justice Frankfurter. He assured
me. however, that he did not
insist on the corporation bear
ing his cognomen.
With becoming modesty he
said that all credit should go 10

suited the lady congressman in
question. She admitted having
been the inspiration, but SAID
she did not wish 10 go around
grabbing credit and would just
as soon her name was with
