Of course if the people were willing to go direct to the bakeries and pur chase their bread, and were willing to take unwrapped bread, the cost could be reduced.

"In other words, it simply evolved itself into a question of whether we are willing to pay the price of an electric light age or wish to go back to the tallow stick age. No one can expect any manufacturer to continue to offer his goods at a loss, and that is the situation as we found It. At the old price of 8 cents wholesale, with present prices for flour and in gredients prevailing,, the bakers were losing money." Mayor Baker, after thanking the committee for its efforts and compli menting the committee for ita thor ough research, dismissed them. W. D.

BE EX FORCED Persons Wlio Believe That Some One Group Is Strongt-r Than Government to Be Surprised. (Continued From First Page.) Final declaration of the govern ment's policy of dealing with tho coal strike waa announced, by the attorney-general, while officers of the miners' organization at Indian apolis were struggling with the ques tion how to answer the court's com mand to rescind the strike order. Describing the strike as a viola tion of the federal statute. Mr. Palmer, speaking with full authority of the government, announced that all the power of the United States would be exerted to enforce the man date of the court.. Bitter Fight in store. Although no reference was made in the attorney-general's statement to the pronouncement of organized labor, supporting the miners and de manding withdrawal of Injunction proceedings, it was evident that Mr. Palmer had that document in mind and official Washington accepted his declaration to mean that refusal of the miners to cancel' their strike order would mean a fight to the end. There waa no attempt in official or labor circles tonight to conceal the feeling that the : situation waa grave and getting beyond the ques tion of a coal strike. This was due to the belief the miners apparently were not of one mind on the ques tion of making quick reply to the court. The action of the executive council of the American Federation of Labor upholding the strike, pledging sup port to the strikers and denouncing the government' injunction suit, was variously interpreted. While officers of the federation refused to add one word by way of explanation, it was attacked on the floor of the senate and emphasized there that under the food control law Injunction could legally issue against strikers inter rupting the nation's food or fuel. The attorney-general declared that "those who conceive that the resolu tions of a convention or the orders of the officers of any organization in the country, whether labor organiza tions or any other, are superior in authority to the law of the land will find themselves mistaken." Strike Held l ilanf ul. The statement follows: "The coal strike la a plain viola tion of a federal statute. This has been the government's position from the start. The president declared it to be unlawful and the court, after fully hearing, has now declared it to be unlawful. "All I can eay is that the law will be enforced. This same law has been enforced many times and the depart ment of Justice has other cases now pending which were brought under it. The merits of the controversy between the operators and the miners are not involved in court proceedings at Indianapolis, neither Is the right to strike. Nothing that the government has done Is intended or designed to have any effect upon the recognized right of labor to organize, to bargain collectively through its unions and. under ordinary industrial conditions, to walk out by concerted action.' President's Plaa Rejected. "The proposal hy the president of a peaceful settlement of the matters at issue between the operators and the miners, through negotiations or ar bitration, was rejected and the gov ernment, therefore, faced the alterna tive of submitting to the demands of a single group, to the irreparable In Jury. of the whole people, or of chal lenging the atsertion by that group of power greater than that of the government Itself. "Confronted wita such a choice, the ALVIN COOLIOGE AND MRS. COOLIDGE. a tremendous majority over Richard grave issue presented to the voters by following his election, said: "My thanks are due to millions of my fellow freely, without undertaking to specify heart of the people has proved sound America. government's duty was perfectly clear. It refused to surrender to the dictation of a group and it proposes to assert its power to protect itself and the people, whom it is designed to serve. The government is no re specter of persons in the enforcement of the law. . 1 hose who conceive that the resolutions of a convention or the orders -of th3 officers of any organ ization in the country, whether labor organization or any other, are su perior in authority to the law of the j land will find themselves mistaken. ! I assume that the order of the court will be obeyed. The president s offer for a peaceful settlement is still open and I hops that the miners and operators will now get together and settle their controversy." . INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.. Nov. 10. After more than 12 hours' debate executives of the United Mine Work ers of America, who met here today, had reached no agreement as to whether they would comply with the order of Federal Judge A. B. Anderson to call off the strike of coal miners. At 2 o'clock this morning the execu tives were still in conference and had not started to take a vote on their action with regard to the order of the federal court that they call off the strike of coal miners. In view of the provision of the court order instructing the miners' chiefs to present to the court for ap proval' their order withdrawing the strike call of October 15 within 72 hours, it was predicted tonight that no announcement would be made be fore the expiration of that time. The court order was signed at It :2k P. M. on Saturday, therefore the union offi cials must report to the court -by that time tomorrow. - Although extraordinary measures were taken to prevent the proceed ings from becoming public it was ascertained from disconnected re marks by delegates that the discus sion brought out wide divergence of opinion as to what course the coal workers should pursue on the court's order. Alexander Howat. president of the Kansas district, remarked to Frank Farrington, president of the Illinois district, as they passed , newspaper men: "That was a good speech you made. Frank. I agree with it fully." Howat Still Deflsat. Mr. Howat, before leaving Kansas for the conference here, gave out a statement in whiah he declared that 'regardless of injunction, prisons and judges" he Intended to fight. Another delegate said: "It isn't a question of going to il. These men have no fear of that. What they are debating is the wel fare of the united Mine Workers. They are debating, too, whether they should take a position that would be a stand against the attitude of the federal government." John L. Lewis, acting president of the mine workers, at the close of each session today said: "We haven't a thing to give out at this time." Officials An Sileat. Other officials and delegates adopted the same attitude. There was every indication that the majority of the mineworkers are da termined to weigh a'll phases of the issue before taking any step toward disobedience of the strike order. The only action of the- government was the serving of 33 copies of the temporary Injunction issued on Sat urday. The writs served are return able on December 1, Instead of No vember 20, the date the original orders are returnable. The men served today include Adam Wilkinson, Roundup, Mont., executive board; Alexander Howat, Pittsburg, Kan., district president; Martin Cahill, Rock Springs, Wyo., district pre si dent; James Morgan, district secretary-treasurer, Cheyenne, Wyo. ; George Heppel, Nova Scotia, district secretary-treasurer, and Frank Farrington, Springfield. 111., district president. fl.

NM BUND IS HEARD CONCERT AND PROGRAMME IS GIVEN TO BOOST RECRUITING Motion Pictures Depicting Life on Sea Also Shown at Meeting in Public Auditorium. Jazz melodies and military marches aplenty were heard last night by those who enjoyed the naval recruit ing band concert at the municipal auditorium. The boys, who were se lected from California stations, have brought with them to Hawaiian or chestra that furnished part of the pro gramme. All of the band selections were popular tunes into which the 15 instruments blended perfectly. The band will appear again today in the armistice anniversary parade. Three reels of motion pictures showing life in the United States navy and intended to stimulate interest In recruiting were shown. These were put together in an entertaining form and represented an animated letter from a gob to his home folks. While the pictures were shown the orches- ' tra furnished accompainment in the iorm or Hawaiian airs, the boya singing the choruses of many of the songs. One of the pleasing feature of this part of the concert was th addition of a flute to the sxrinar;S instruments. Community singing led by Walu Jenkins, song leader for the War Camp Community Service, and sev eral addresses, one by Commissioner Bigeldw on the two-mill additional tax levy election Wednesday, com pleted the programme. Lieutenant Commander Elder of the local navy recruiting station, spoke on the pres ent needs of the service. His talk was illustrated by cartoons, sketched on the stage by another officer. WASHINGTON. Nov. 10. The fight over article 10 of the league of nations covenant neared a conclusion todrfy In the senate, with develop- i ments promising adoption of a reser vation wholly unacceptable to the ad ministration. During the day the reservation drafted by the foreign relations com mittee, almost identical with one which President Wilson has an nounced he would regard as a rejec tion of the treaty, weathered all at tempts to alter it. and rallied a sup port which seemed to insure final acceptance. A vote is expected to morrow. The reservation provides that under the article, which pledges member states to preserve as against external aggression the territorial Integrity and political independence of all other members, the United States snan as sume no obligation to use Its naval or military forces except on express authorization of congress in every specific case. Oaly 18 With Borah. On the rollcall on a reservation prepared by the mild reservatlonlsts the committees recommendation weathered all attacks, 48 to 36. All the republicans present and Senators Walsh of Massachusetts; Reed, Mis souri; Smith, Georgia, and Gore, Okla homa, democrats, voted in the nega tive. The senate then voted down a suo- stitute by Senator Borah, republican. Idaho, under which tne unttea states would decline entirely to be bound by Article 10. Sixteen republican senators and Senator Reed, Missouri, and Gore, Oklahoma, democrats, voted for Sen ator Borah's substitute. Sixty-eight senators voted against it. The debate, which summed up six months of senate discussion, reached a high pitch or bitterness several times. It developed another spirited clash on the question of Ireland s status. Senator Williams of Missis sippi assailing Irish-Americans who oppose the league and Senator waisn of Massachusetts replying in a speech charging that the administration had undertaken to deprive him of all fed eral patronage because he did not support the treaty without qualifi cation. Democratic Strategy Fails. Early in the session the democrats had made another unsuccessful el fort to break into the republican ranks by proposing as a substitute for the committee reservation one which had been agreed upon some weeks ago by the mild group of re publicans. Standing by their agree ment to support the committee, how ever, all the mild reservationists voted against the substitute and It got only democratic support. The vote wai 48 to 36. By a vote of 4a to 38 the senate re jected another motion by Senator Walsh of Montana to strike out part of the clause reciting congress' authority over the use of armed forces. The only other move to alter the reservation came from the Irrecon cllableB. Senator Borah proposing to substitute a reservation which would exclude the United States from par ticlpatlon . In article 10. It got no support from administration senators or mild reservatlonlsts and was re jected, 48 to 18. with the following for it: Republicans Borah, Brundage. Cummins, Fall, Fernald, France, Gronna. Johnson. La Follette, McCor mick, McLean. Moses, New, Worria, Penrose and Sherman. Democrats Gore and Read. Hitchcock. Rrronri Bitter. "During the debate on Senator Walsh's proviso Democratic Leader Hitchcock bitterly denounced the committee reservation and declared that if it is adopted "there will be no article 10." He said the objectionable feature was the opening declaration that the United States "assumes no obligation" except in certain circumstances, add ing that there would be no objection on the democratic side or by President Wilson to a reservation merely -saying the United States could not make war without action by congress. To adopt the reservation as drafted, the democratic leader said, would be to "desert" the weak nations this country had helped bring into-being. Walah Sees Pressure Coming. Senator Walsh, democrat, Massa chusetts, said his advocacy of amend ments and reservations had been con scientious and that he regretted to disagree with his democratic col leagues. "I know that already plans have Pia.no Wanted Highest cash price paid for used Upright Pianos Player Pianos Grand Pianos Pianos exchanged for Victrolas and Records Get our proposition.

' "The senator ought to stand here as an American senator, not as an offspring of an oppressed race," Sen ator Williams, democrat, Mississippi, retorted. He added that some oppo nents of the league were seeking its death with a "bludgeon and others by poison of reservations because of hate of some country beyond the Atlantic."
