L. PEHSOT.
FREEPORT, Pa., Sept. 20. An ab
solute industrial armistice for six
months was urged by Attorney-General
Palmer today to permit the solution of
economic problems arising out of the
changes wrought by war.
Such a period of freedom from un
rest, he declared, would result soon in
increased production which would bring
about an era of "easier living and bet
ter times" for all. On the other hand,
the attorney-general warned, selfish
demands by any one class cannot stim
ulate the national prosperity or per
manently benefit even those obtaining
such demands by force. He strongly
discountenanced strikes.
"Labor is asking a larger share of
the joint product of money and labor
and there is much merit in the claim,"
he said, "but the chance of getting it
is not advanced nor the injustice of
it more widely recognized by the- re
fusal of labor to produce."
The campaign to reduce the cost of
living evidently was foremost in the
attorney-general's mind in his speech
delivered at a reunion of the 7Sth regi
ment of Pennsylvania volunteers. He
eaid that, although many problems be
set men's minds in these days of re
construction, there is none which can
not be worked out "in the general in
terest" in a government where the
people are the only rulers.
"But unless we shall be satisfied with
that which is for the general interest,"
. he continued, "and do not insist upon
that which is in our own particular in
terest, there will be trouble and delay
in the settlement. If men could learn
to be patient under conditions which
have resulted from the world war until
a. more accurate estimate of the pos
sibilities of the situation can be made,
all our problems will be sooner solved;
but if Impatience and selfishness shall
rule and immediate forceful or direct
action be taken, it is perfectly obvious
that nothing but disorder and delay
can result.
"The crying need of the world Just
now is for peace, and not political peace
between governments alone, but in
dustrial peace among men also."
MILLIONS FOR GOLF RELIEF

CORPUS CHRISTI, Tex., Sept 20.
Actual funds or assurance of financial
support for rehabilitation of storm
swept Corpus Christ! are coming in
from every part of the country, with
officials estimating that the total, at
the present rate, might reach $5,000,000.
Roy Miller, chairman of the citizen
relief committee, said that the country
wide response to the appeal for aid
had exceede dexpectations, but cau
tioned against any impression that the
need for funds had been entirely met
"With the drouth of the two years
previous to 1918 many merchants and
reside'nts suffered great reverses, from
which they had not recovered, even
with the banner' crops of 1918," Mr.
Miller said, "and a large percentage of
the crop this year was destroyed by the
storm, as it had not all been picked."
The known dead are now near the
400 mark and steadily increasing.

Liner Laurentic, Sunk by Hun Sub
marine, May Yield Precious
Load With Little Loss.
PORT SALON. Ireland, Aug. 25.
(Correspondence of the Associated
Press.) Salvaging $33,000,000 worth of
gold ingots and bullion the White Star
liner Laurentic is reported to have car
ried when she was sunk the night of
January 25. 1917. off Fanal light, one
of the northernmost headlands of Ire
land at the entrance to Lough Swilly,
is being conducted by the salvage ship
Racer.
The princely cargo lay at a depth of
22 fathoms. The gold and bullion were
contained in the strong chamber amid
ships rendered almost impregnable by I
its thick steel walls and heavily bolted
doors. At first portions of the Lauren
tics decks were blasted away and a
passage was made clear for the divers.
On June 20, the retrieving of the treas
ure began.
Gold Comes In Backets.
The first bucket sent up contained
only copper pennies and a few silver
coins. Then for several days, bucket
after bucket containing three or more
gold bars, each worth more than $5000.
were hoisted to the surface and dumped
on the deck of the Racer. The first of
these bars brought lusty cheers from
the crew of the salvage ship, but toss
ing fortunes about soon came to he
merely another form of manual labor
to these sailormen.
Most of the gold bars were Titne
inches long, two inches thick and four
nches wide and weighed about 28
pounds. For days not one was found
as many of them were hurled clear of
the wreck by the blasting necessary
to make the strong chamber accessible.
Several feet of sand have now been
washed over these scattered bars and
neath masses of twisted steel and it
frequently requires hours of patient la
bor to pry them loose. The record-day's
haul so far had been 47 bars worth
approximately Jou.uuu. Thus rar sev
eral million dollars worth of treasure
has been salvaged.
Kight Divers on Job.
The Racer carries eight divers. Their
tricks are so arranged that one diver
is at work throughout the day. Each
works half an hour and then must
spend 30 minutes in coming to the
surface as otherwise the sudden relief
from the tremendous deep-water pres
sure might cause partial or complete
paralysis. They are brought up in 10
fathom "hauls.", with 10-minute "rest"
intervals.
When the day's work is over, the
day's "catch," if considerable, is dis
patched to London .with an armed con
voy. When first built the Racer was a
square-rigger man-o'-war one of the
"Wooden Walls of England." as the
ships of the British navy at that time
were known a century ago.
