INQUEST HELD ON CAMPBELL
 THIS MORNING
Dottor's Testimony Rules 0uiSuitide- Verdict Says
 Person Unknown

Staying of Clarence J. Campbell was definitely labelled murder here today by a Coroner's Jury called this morning by U. s. Commission CT and Coroner Felix Gray to sit in inquest on the knife -slashed body discovered Monday noon in the Scatter Tract.
 The verdict returned by the six jurors is: Death due to throat wounds inflicted by person or per- sons unknown.
 Highlight of the proceedings which opened this morning at II o'clock in the Commissioners court room was medical evidence given by Dr. w. M. Whitehead who was called to the scene of the crime to conduct the medical examination. Dr. White heads testimony dispelled all doubts that Campbell was the victim of at least one yielding assailant. His remarks abruptly forestalled any contention of suicide, although total lack of any fatal weapon near the body when found had left practically no basis for any such belief
 Gruesome Find
 First witness called by the Cor oner was Kenyon (Spike) MacLean. who, with an assistant made the gruesome find.
 MacLean declared he first sight, ed the brutally slashed body of Clarence Campbell a few minutes before noon on Monday. At the time of discovery, he and his com panion were leaving the adjacent new residence where they had been working for more than an hour. The body was shielded by rise in ground from view of persons ap- preaching the house by the most frequently used lower entrance, which, the witness inferred, &C., counted for the fact that 1t had not been discovered on their arrival. That fact, also, together with dark ness at the time of arrival on the job of other workmen in the house, prevented discovery by them. |
 MacLean stated he had driven his car up the short winding roadway alongside which the body lay. in order to turn around. It was com ing back down the roadway that the corpse was discovered. MacLean said his first thought was that 1t was a drunk" On getting out of the car and closer approach, death was immediately apparent however.
 Body Worked Ouer"
 The bcdy had been worked over considerably MacLean replied to questions. The witness described she wounds visible to him without touching the body and further said. the man looked familiar, but couldn't place him"
 MacLean said he saw no weapon, but did sight womans aluminium hair curler lying about two feet from the head There were traces of vomiting about. There was not as much blood as would have been expected, MacLean stated. only q few small clots here and there. Two of the pockets of Campbell's cloth- ing had been turned inside out.
 In reply to query from juror Lockie MacKinnon. MacLean said the body appeared to be soaking wet"
 The curler was the only previously unrevealed clue turned up by Mac Leans testimony Coroner Gray, who several times throughout the inquest questioned regarding eye glasses connected with Campbell, re- ceiyed a negative response when he asked if MacLean had seen them.
 Find Described
 Dr Whitehead testified according to the following statement:

Shortage OF Cool
Held Exaggerated

While administration officials were
raising a scare about coal shortages
and ordering reductions in consump-
ton, United Mine Workers spokes-
man this week declared there's no
ground for hysteria."
"There's no overall scarcity of
COAL" he said "Our reserves are ade-
quate and our members stand ready
to produce all that's needed.
Shortages impend only in certain
types of coal, and we can easily lick
those. For example, supplies of coal
for steel mills are running low.
"To take care of that situation, our
people in the mines of Southern West
Virginia, Eastern Kentucky and Ten
nessee have agreed to do extra work
on two Sundays-January % and
February Ito build up stocks. We
will do it in any other instances Of
emergencies that may arise"

8 Million Women
In Trade Unions

Boston (ILNS). = Membership OF
women in trade unions, soaring from
100000 to more than 100000 as a
direct result of the war, marks an
important step forward, Frieda S.
Miller, director of the Women's
Bureau U. S. Department of Labor
said here.
Urging the same pay scales for
women as men, she told the Boston
Women's Trade Union League that
most unions have pressed for equal
pay rights and large unions in the
"women employing industries" now
have Hundreds of contracts with
equal pay clauses"
Women, like men, work because of
economic necessity and the response
bilities of the women wage earners
are indicated, she said, by fifth OF
all women workers prior to the war
being the principal wage earners in
their families.

include the charge of Senator James
NJ. Mead, New York, long staunch
friend Of labor, that his War Investi-
eating Committee found excess man
power, boarded labor and enforced
loafng in the Norfolk Navy Yard to
degree deeply disturbing and most
significant"
Mead, assailing national service
legislation in a Senate speech, de-
clared his committee was in posses
sion of information that led it to be-
lieve manpower was being utilized
inefficiently in "a great many war
plants"
Another development was the aerial
cross country trip of Col. Elliott
Roosevelt's bull mastiff, Blaze. Three

which had an A priority. The affair
is rather trivial, despite the many
thousands of words written about it,
but opponents of service legislation
cited it as evidence that the manpower
situation is not as serious as Army
spokesmen have contended.
Bill Tentatively O.K.'d
The only concrete progress made
by the advocates of service legislation
at this writing is the tentative ap-
proval by the House Military Affairs
Committee Of the May-Bailey "limited
national service" bill, embodying in
it provision against forcing work
er to join labor union.
The union proviso states that every
man assigned to new work under the
bill, including volunteers to fill jobs
listed as critical, "shall have the right
to join any union or organization of
employees, but no such person shall
be obliged to join any such union or

ting union are automatically dis
charged from their jobs, after passage
of an escape period"
Big Fight To Come
The May-Bailey measure was ex-
pected to reach the House the last
week in January. 1t was predicted it
would meet with stenuous opposition
and even if passed by the House,
faces hard fight in the Senate.
Farm opposition to national service
legislation brought an order from Sc
lective Service Director Hershey spe-
cifcally deferring from induction
farmers entitled to deferment by law,
under the Tydings Amendment. Her
shey acted at the behest of the House
Agriculture Committee, which pro-
tested his sweeping JAM order to
draft deferred farmers from the ages
of 18 to 25.

Saws Workers Are
Holding To Jobs

Washington, d. C. (LNS). - The
American Federation of Labor re-
turns an emphatic "no" to the ques-
tion, Are war workers leaving war
plants to find secure jobs in civilian
work?
There is no evidence war workers
are quitting, the AFL says in its LA
boris Monthly Survey"
This is the federation's answer to
the charge made so freely by labor's
enemies that war workers are "de-
serters":
During the summer months of
1914, war production was being cut
back and tens of thousands of war
workers were laid off. Many of the
best informed military observers be-
lieved the war would end in 1914.
Congress, enacting postwar leglsla-
ton, refused to provide unemploy-
ment compensation to tide war work
ers over the postwar unemployment
period. Under these circumstances,
many of the war workers laid off IN
cutbacks sought civilian jobs; many
housewives returned home.
"There is no evidence today that
war workers are deserting their jobs.
Quit rates in munitions industries are
the same as year ago. In some war
Industries, quit rates are lower than
last year, especially where programs
are critical. Quit rates in non-war
industries are much higher than in
war industries.
"On the other hand, lay-off rates in
war industries are much higher than
they were year ago, due to cutbacks
in some programs"
