THE LUTHER REGISTER
TO END COAL
MINING STRIFE
Officials of National Union Or-
ganization Put Forward
Proposition.
WANT VOICE IN INDUSTRY
Suggestion Made to United States Coal
Commission Is the Unionization of
the Workers in All Sections
of the Country.
Complete unionization of the bitu-
minous Industry and the abolition of
“open-shop” operations in West Vir-
ginia and other states would bring
about cessation of strikes, and elim-
ination of coal shortage, officials of the
United Mine Workers of America state
in arguments tiled with the United
States coal commission.
The arguments were prepared by
William Green, international secre-
tary-treasurer of the union, and Philip
Murray, its vice president, in response
to the recently Indicated desire of the
commission for “constructive sugges-
tions.”
Mr. Murray declared in his statement
that the commission "by nn aggressive
and fearless attitude can compose all
differences which exist in the unor-
ganized mining sections.” Guaranteed
the “right of workers to organize and
bargain collectively” through the
United Mine Workers or other union
system, he suid, miners would achieve
“uniformity of wages and working
conditions and regularity and continuity
of employment.” The union, he added,
has no purpose of establishing revolu-
tionary or worker control of the
mines, but does “demand a voice in the
control of the coal Industry.”

case in defense against the federal in-

nounced that their principal conten-
tions in the cuse had been upheld.
The announcement by counsel for
the defendants, coming twenty-four
hours in advance of the hearing on
the government's application for a per-
manent injunction, caused Blackburn
Esterline, assistant solicitor general of
the United States, to interpret the ac-
tion of the defense us amounting to n
default, which he termed a "fiusco."
He suid:
"The legal significance of the with-
drawal from the case of counsel for
the defendants, and failure of the de-
fendants to substitute other counsel, is
that the defendants have no defense
and will allow the case to go by de-
fuult.”
Donald It. Richberg, of defense coun-
sel, explained that the shopmen were
satisfied1 with the situation and that
the governmeht could find such satis-
faction ns they could and do as they
wished with the case.

Shawl Effects in Summer Wraps;
Suits in All-Over Tucked Cloth
JE STAND nt the threshold of nn
era of quaint summer wraps,
which savor of scarf and shawl ef-
fects. This probably has come annul
through the revived interest, so appar-
ent during the last several seasons, In
exquisitely wrought shawls of Spanish
and Venetian inspiration. Not only
shawls but broad scarfs enfolded in
ways of grace through the witchery of
feminine intuitiveness, have been and
are very much In fashion. These
associate tucks with sheer dainty
fabrics until creative genius, this sea-
son, is applying the art to cloth. This
Innovation lias set a new record of
achievement in the nit of suit design-
ing and in the most recent modes tuck-
ing Is an outstanding feature.
The all-pervasiveness of tucks is
aptly set forth in the mode) pictured.
Not only is the entire suit of tucked
cloth, including Its skirt, uniquely pan-
eled with tucks horizontal plus vertl-
Beautiful and Unusual Wrap
scarfs partake of shnwl-like dimensions
and the future promises startling ef-
fects in brilliant coloring and marvel-
ous design.
The scarf-like tendency is reflected
in many a fanciful shoulder wrap and
the Idea has even been carried into
two-piece dress effects. That is, a
one-piece frock is accompanied by a
shoulder wrap made of the same
fabric. One will at once sense in this
vogue vast possibilities for clever ef-
fects. For example, note tlie very un-
usual wrap in this picture. It Is of
heavy marocnin crepe, three yards in
length and a half width of the mate-
rial. The edge is finished with a sim-
ple cord of the material. A graceful
hood effect Is introduced nt the buck,
detailed with applique of ribbon work
and embroidery.
Tills idea may be consistently de-
veloped In Jight-weight cloth, which
cal, but even the silken blouse is a
muss of fine pin tucks.
A near relation to tucks Is plaiting,
and so it seems eminently fitting that
this natty suit should he trimmed iu
frills of petite knife-plaited ribbon.
Speaking of plaltings, many charm-
ingly girlish suits are of tine woolen
twill cloth, simply finished with knife-
plaitings of the cloth bordered about
tiie sleeves and tlie bottom of the
coatee, to a depth of six or seven
indies. Here is given opportunity for
tiie home seamstress to secure expert
results in suit making, for machine
plaiting counteracts any tendency to
that dreaded bugaboo of “home-made”
appearance.
When a suit is not emphasizing
tucks or pinit'ngs, then it adopts braid-
ing as its means of style expression.
It is characteristic of tiie mode tlint

I TALES FROM
BIG CITIES I
Bamum Underestimated the Number
LANCHARDVILLE. WI8.—So
L# convinced was Ernest Regex.
[ J Sr., head of Regez & Son,
wholesale cheesemongers of
this city, of the genuineness of a confi-
dence game into which lie had been
inveigled that not even a trusted
friend could alter his opinion.
So Regez sat in the detective bureau
In Chicago, pleading to be released
and allowed to go to French Lick,
where n share of $21,000 wns awaiting
him. Laughs were the only answer
he received, with the promise thut
when he had been convinced of his
foolishness he would be allowed to go.
Regez went to the West Baden
Springs hotel nt French Lick about
ten days ago. There he became friend-
ly with a man who sat ut the same
table. A few days later another man
spoke to him, telling him he knew the
first man nnd that the latter had won-
derful ideas for making money.
“I made more than $150,000 in one
dny through him,” he said.
It ended us usual In the three men
getting together nnd each putting up
money for the scheme. It was carried
out at once und “we made $21,000 that
day," said Regez. It wns the old story
of topping wires nnd hacking horses
before the results reached tiie book-
makers, hut it convinced Regez, and
Tie was delighted with the scheme.
"After iny friend got the money he
was going to give me my share,"
Regez said, “hut the other man ob-
jected, saying that if they had lost, 1
should probubly have wanted my
money hack." To convince them he
was trustworthy, Regez went to Chi-
cago to draw out $15,000 und take it
back to them.
Luckily for him he met a friend, J.
•I,. Kraft, hend of the Kraft Brothers'
Cheese company, on his way to the
bank. He told Kraft all about the
scheme nnd Kraft realized he had
fullen Into the hands of confidence
men. Regez refused to believe It. and
insisted on drawing out the money and
returning to French Lick.
So, Kraft called the Chicago detec-
tive bureau. The bureau responded to
his appeal, and, despite his protests.
Regez was arrested and taken to the
bureau to be convinced. It was a
hard task, hut Lieutenant Rourke wns
confident of success.
But They Will Not Argue Over It—Yet
yEW YORK.—As C. J. Rrokop-
ovltsh of Bench wood boule-
I vnrd, Pittsburgh, escorted
his bride v~*ho Is much short-
er and far prettier than the name she
has Just acquired) to nnd from the
Follies, he did not release her hand n
moment until he had her safely back
In tiie Hotel Aberdeen, No. 17 West
Twenty-third street. There were oth-
er than honeymoon reasons. Hear
them:
En route to see the Yankees win
again, the couple were wnlting for a
Jerome avenue train in the Twenty-
eighth street station of the East side
subway. It came. She entered, and
then the door groaned shut with C.
J. still on the stntlon platform. In
the light of developments it seems ns
if she rather had It on C. J. in rea-
soning power, but, of course, they will
not argue over a little thing like that
—yet.
Smiling bravely through tears, Mrs.
Prokopovitsh clung to u strap until
she reached the Yankee Stadium sta-
tion, One Hundred nnd Sixty-first
street. There she detrained and wait-
ed. What more natural than that to
expect that C. J. would be nlong on
tiie next express? And so, while thou-
sands cheered Babe Ruth’s second
home run of the season, the little
bride stood weeping on tiie station
platform Just outside without a cent
In her pocket. —nd whut did C. J.
do? Ah, he admits It:
“When the train started I wns fran-
tic," said lie. “I begged a subway
man to telephone and stop the trnin.
Then I rushed to tiie Aberdeen, got a
taxi and went to five police stations.
My tnxicnb bill wns $8. The police
said, 'Oh, go to the hotel and wait,
she’ll come back.’ They were like
dumbbells. I lived n lifetime in the
four hours she wns lost.”
Meanwhile a policeman snw the
weeping girl on the plutform, got her
story, took her to the downtown side
of the stntlon, gave her Instructions
and sent her on her way. She reached i
the hotel safely, went to her room and j
waited calmly until (\ J. had ridden
out his $8 und returned for news. I
When he came in she kissed him— j
remember, they were married Mon-
day.
Dawes Is “H—1 and Mariaing” Again
VANSTON, ILL.—Gen. Charles
Ij G. Dawes has become sponsor
Wjj nn.l first president of a new
organization, the purpose of
which is to compel greater respect for
the Constitution of the United States.
The new body will be known as the
Minute Men of the Constitution. Gen-
eral Dawes will head tlte Evnnston
chapter, with Charles A. Rogers, city
collector, ns secretary nnd W. J.
Plialen, leading Democrat, as vice
president. The purpose of the organi-
zation Is outlined in the following un-
nouncement :
"The Minute Men of the Constitu-
tion is a nonpartisan association or-
ganized to obtain delegates from Illi-
nois to tiie Republican and Democratic
state nnd national conventions pledged
to support the inclusion of the follow-
ing planks in tiie platform of euch
party:
"Advocating the renewal nnd build-
ing up of respect for law nnd the
Constitution of the United States.
“Condemning ail influences nnd
agencies which breed cluss or religious
discriminations.
“Recognizing the right of the in-
dividual to associate with others to
defend within the law his rights and
advance his economic, social and po-
litical Interests.
“Indorsing the announced position 1
of the government of the United j
States maintaining that tiie right of ;
a citizen to work without unlawful 1
Interference is as sacred ns the rigid |
of a citizen to cease work, Irrespec-
tive of whether he is or is not u mem-
ber of a labor or other organization.
“Declaring that loyalty to the gov-
ernment of the United States must he I
above and beyond that to.any elxil or |
industrial organization working for I
the Interest of special groups or
classes."
More than 3,100 Evnnstoninns be-
came Minute Men of the Constitution

what is expected to grow rapidly Into
an Americanization association of na-
tional scope. Two thousand citizens
filled the assembly room to capacity.
Tiie genernl then addressed an over-
flow of 1,500 persons In the street and
received further pledges which
brought the total enrollment to 3,127.
Got to Stop Radioing His Mule Around
y^ORT WORTH, TEX.—Saying
Lj that Tils neighbor, Robert Bates,
B ^ Sr., had bothered him with
“electricity," and that even
now he probably had h radio set with
him, It. J. Wright, hermit farmer, liv-
ing near Fort Worth, shot und serious-
ly wounded Bates.
Wright’s only reason for the shoot-
ing was the "electrical" bother Bates
gave him. He said Bates even both-
ered the Wright mules In the field
with his “electricity stuff." Wright
was arrested on a charge of ussault to
murder und denied bond.
One of tlie most striking features of
Wright’s mystery story of being a
victim of an electrical apparatus
manipulated by Bates was that Bates
would send out commands to Ills team
of mules while he was driving them
in the fields.
“For months I have never gotten
any rest from fids electricity business."
continued the defendant. “1 womd
he hard at work plowing in the field
when I would hear Bates’ voice come
down the rows and through tiie air.
I could even distinguish ids voice
from that of ids sons' when the elec-
trical messages were sent.
“Sometimes when I would he plow-
ing Bates would command my mules,
of course using his electrical machine
while lie would he blocks awny. He I
would yell ’gee,' and my mule would
turn to the right when I wanted him
to go straight ahead. Or maybe he
would cry out 'haw' to my mule and I
make him go to the left when 1 want-
ed him to go to the right. Sometimes
I would strike n stump nnd want my
mule to pull hard, bur Bates would
send Ids electrical message of ‘whoa’
and my mule would suddenly stop."
“Was it radio?” be was asked.
"I don’t know what It was," replied
the defendant. “It was some kind of
a new Invention. I had never heard
of it until I actually had It worked on
me. If you will go over to the hos-
pital where Bates Is. you will find one
of those machines tied to him.”
Suit of Tucked Cloth
Things Switched About in This World
will prove very acceptable with a

are matched to skirts this season.

H1CAGO.—To tiie four chll- I one day Mamma Kerkes and the four
dren of Stephen Kerkes, 4742 j little Kerkes trooped Into court to ask

mother wears the trousers.
She goes out every day and works
while papa washes their faces and

Everything was serene In the Kerkes
family under this arrangement until
one day when Mrs Kerkes announced
ut tiie breakfast table:
"I guess 1 won’t go to work today."
Right away Rapa Kerkes thought
there were shenanigans afoot. Mamma
never had stayed home from work be- j
fore. Could she be Interested In some
other man? So he went (’own to the)
domestic relations court to complain
to Judge William L. Morgan and de-
mand that she Tie prohibited from

When he learned that Rapa Kerkes
had been washing the dishes and do-

worked by the day. ho sent Kerkes
to the bridew ell for nonsupport. Then j world.’
the Judge fo let their pnpa come home.
“lie makes our clothes and cooks
for us, and when we are sick Tie stays
up all night with us," said Mildred.
“Your honor, the children need him
more than they need me," Mamma
Kerkes told the court. "They cry for
him like other children cry for their
mothers. I love him, nnd he’s a fine
mother to my babies. If he takes care
of them I’m perfectly willing to go out
and work and support the family."
"But he’s n big. husky mun, and he
should be at work," said the perplexed
Judge.
“Judge, you tnke care of four chil-
dren and mend their clothes and wash
I them and feed them, nnd you’ve got

awful pains across my back, and was so
nervous ahd run down I wus in mis-
ery oil the time.
‘Tanlac was helping so many
others I thought it might help me, too,
and it certainly has. Why, my appe-
tite is Just splendid, and my stomach
Is in such good order I eat to my
heart’s content. My back doesn’t
bother me any more, nnd I sleep like a
