LAST HOPE FADES
FOR LIVES OF 70
UP TO COMMITTEE
COAL GLEN, N. C, May 28. (A.
P.1) The glimmer of hope that some
of the three score or more miners en
tombed In the Carolina Coal company
mine early yesterday mlf;ht be rescued
alive wavered and went out early to
day in the hearts of ccscue Workers
who through the night had labored in
the recesses of the mine.
-r Afterdamp, dread enemy of the
frilners. claimed their lives, if they sur
vived the series of explosions which
closed their epcape to the surface, res
cue workers declared. But despite this
belief, which gained headway through
the night, they labored no less faith
fully in the effort to reach their im
prisoned comrades of yesterday. Thru
oqt the night, hundreds of men, wo
men and children, relatives of the en
tombed men, strained against the bar
rier ropes surrounding the dusky en
trance to the mine.
For hours after the disaster, hope
was entertained that the imprisoned
men might still live. This hope was
nurtured by the report that fresh air
had been encountered by workers ns
they toiled downward seeking the en
tombed men.
As the cable drew its creaking bur
den into the outer darkness time after
time and fresh crews of rescuers re
placed tired workers until the 1800
foot level had been reached, without
bringing evidence of the imprisoned
men. the belief grew that afterdamp
had claimed as its toll the lives which
might have survived the explosions.
Early today eight bodies represented
if ms soie iruu o line labor or rescue
workers. Mine officials expressed the
opinion that between fifty and sixty
five men still were burled beneath the
1500 foot level.
Arrival of a mino rescue car from
"West Virginia whence it was ordered
by- the bureau of mines today, was
expected to facilitate the work of res

CITIZENSHIP
A Tribute to Our Soldier Dead and Their Influence on the Nation's
Character. Issued by the BETTER SCHOOLS LEAGUE, INC.
Memorial Day brings to. us n new
reverence, for those whose sacrifices
made our country sure. In their valor
and ideals thoy regaled the priceless
possession of this nation its abund
ant treasure of worthy citizenship.
Citizenship Is the fiber of any na
tion. In our own nation it is the
power supreme. It leaps the boun
daries of birth and creed, feeds tho
love of hearth and home, sots aflame
tht' pansion of patriotism, lifts the na
tion above the individual und fosters
libery and equality.
Well may this nation be proud of its
citizenship. From Lexington to Sum
ter, from Santiago to the Argonne,
this rilixenshlp has burned as a bea
con of democracy. Whether on Flan
ders Fields or native soil, Jt revealed
its mottle and its higtl. unselfish aims.
It defended freedom and , welcomed
peace; it helped bind the wounds of
the vanquished, .
That citizenship so steadfastly main
tained by our munhood in war we
cherish and revere today. It is the
quality that has had inwneasuroabie
Influenco on our national character.
We foster it In our hearts and fire
sides, our churches and our schools.
Indeed, our schools are our special In
struments for tho coration of citizen
ship, for they are the cradle of' char
acter. Training youth in good con
duct, right habits, is one of their es?
sontial functions. Here is the founda
tion of good government, tho source
of good citizenship.
Children taught waht is right will
tend to", act right. The cnlit-htcned
miud is the constructive mind, in the
i o
I language of Jude lien Llndsey of
'Denver, prol0bly the foremost investi
gator ot child delinquency and de
pendency in this country, "it Ih better
to mako children think than to make

tipires within those qualities that cre

nobility of character which finds Its
highest expression in defense of de

lessons of devotion and loyalty to
ideals as we pay tribute to the citizen
