Scranton, Pa.. June 29. Anthra cite mine workers tonight unanimous ly adopted a set of demands to be presented to the coal operators in the coming negotiation for a new wage contract. They followed gener ally those adopted at the convention in Shamokin, Pa., in January, 1922, and for which the miners fought for five and a half months, the men final ly returning to work without an in crease in wage, but maintaining the scale under which they had quit. The present agreement which was entered into last September, expires August 31, and it was announced the new demand will be presented to the operators as soon after July 4 as possible. The wage Increase demand is $2 a day. The convention took no action on a question of suspension in the event the negotiations run beyond August 31. John L. Lewis, international president of the mine-workers, who presided, told the delegates that it was a matter that could be left, to the sagacity and good judgment of the officers. The morning session was marked by a disturbance due to the presence in the balcony of the hall of Joseph Manley, son-in-law of William Z. Foster, identified with the trades union educational league, and J. H. McCarthy representing the labor de fense council who were bitterly de nounced as enemies of the united mine workers and other trades unions and ordered to "remove their car casses from the hall." McCarthy was accompanied by his wife. Amid wild jeers and hoots, the three left the place, while a number of delegates held back angry men in the rear of the hall. A half block from the hall Manley and McCarthy were attacked by a number of men and in the melee McCarthy was bad ly used up. Mrs. McCarthy was not assailed, although for a time she pitched in and helped her husband with an umbrella. The men were accused of being back of a plot of the communist par ty in the United States to set up a dual organization in the coal fields of the country for the purpose of wrecking the mine workers' union and virtually breaking up other trad and virtually breaking up other trades union organizations. ONLY ONE BAND FOR HARDING Portland, Ore., June 2S. There probably will be only one band in the procession through the streets here July 4, of which President Harding, on his visit to this city, will be the principal figure.. The musi cians', union advised the committee In charge of 'arrangements for the president's visit yesterday that no union musicians would be permitted to appear In the parade if the band of the Portland Elks lodge partici pated in it. The committees advised the union tfce Elks band would par ticipate, and negotiations were brok en off. MARRIAGES PICKING UP From Saturday's Dally. The records in the marriage license department of the office of County Judge Allen J. Beeson show that a total of twenty-three licenses were issued this month and which doubles the record of June, 1922, when only thirteen were sold. This indicates .a return to prosperity on the part of this section of the west that permits the establishing of new homes. TWO CALIFORNIA TOWNS SHAKEN BY EARTH SHOCKS Los Angeles, June 29.

Many Find It So Little Joe had completed his crys tal receiving set and had made it "work." His astonished and proud mother said to him: "Wasn't it very hard to do all this?"

The range of a broadcasting sta tion may be heard hundreds of miles, yet within fifty miles are localities over which the radiated electro-magnetic waves seem literally to hop, coming down again at points farther along. At the same spot, however, over which waves from one station skip, waves from more distant stations may readily be picked up. This was well illustrated here in the early days of radio when KYW, Chicago, was seldom received in this vicinity or around Omaha, while KDKA, at East Pittsburg came in very satisfactorily. These conditions give rise to much speculation In regard to the cause. The characteristics of the land, whether hilly or flat, wooded or cleared, moist or dry, over which these waves have passed are thought i by many radio fans to be conditions' which contribute to these freak ef fects, says a current bulletin receiv ed from Station WOC, Davenport. Henry Vogler was a business visi tor in the county seat last Monday, driving over In his auto. B. F. Goodman wife and their lit tle son were attending the funeral of Samuel Goodman last week. Mr. Geo. Schaefer is doing some carpenter work at the home of Julius Engelkemeier for the past week. Earl R. Dodd and family were vis iting in Lincoln last Sunday and at tended camp meeting while there. Many of the Manley people at tended the public sale of Wm. Gehrts at Murdock last Saturday afternoon. Herman Dall the implement man was a visitor in Omaha last Friday where he was making purchases of goods for his business here. Fred Krecklow has been assisting Herman Dall for the past week set ting up machinery and helping get them going for the farmers. Louis Krecklow and Richard Pick ard were looking after some busi ness matters in Omaha last Friday, making the trip with Mr. Krecklow's truck. Mrs. A. H. Humble who Is attend ing school at Lincoln was compelled to return home for a few days on ac count of illness which interfered with her studies. Miss Mary A. Murphy who has been visiting with friends and rela tives for several days past returned home last Thursday after having en joyed her visit in the metropolis very much. A. H. Humble the genial agent for the Missouri Pacific and Harry Dehning were enjoying a fine pic ture play at Omaha last Thursday where they drove in the car of Mr. Humble. Thomas Christian and family were enjoying the day last Sunday at Krug park in Omaha and found that retreat a very delightful one from the scorching rays and heated wind of the outside world. Grover and Fred Lauritsen and their families, Fred Flelschman and family and Miss Lillian Pollard were visiting in Lincoln last Sunday where they were all enjoying at tending a camp meeting which was in progress at that place during last, week. Messrs. George and Henry Vogler and Henry Heil and their families were guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Schliefert for last Sun day all enjoying the friendship of each other and also enjoying a most sumptious dinner which the genial hostess, Mrs. Schliefert, had pre pared. A quartet of the Christian church composed of Mesdames Henry Cro zier and George Stoll and Messrs. Cyrus Livingston and Henry Crozier furnished the music at the funeral of the late Samuel Goodman while the lesson used by the minister for the occasion was the ninetieth Psalm making a most Impressive lesson. Dr. J. M. Green who for two years some fifteen years since was the lo cal physician of Manley but who has been located In Falls City for a num ber of years, was a visitor in Manley for a short time last week while he with Mrs. Green weer on their way to Omaha where they were looking after some business matters for the day. Harry F. Dehning and his brother Will of near Murdock were In Lin coln last week where they went to be present at the operation for ap pendicitis of a neice who was taken to the hospital in that city for re lief. The little'' one underwent the ordeal nicely and is progressing fair ly well and It is hoped that she may soon be able to return to her home again entirely well again. G. W. Goodman and wife, brother of Sam Goodman of Plattsmouth, and Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Harvey of Plattsmouth were in attendance dur ing last week at the funeral of Mr. Samuel Goodman and also visited with his daughter, Mrs. A. Stein kamp for a few days during the past week. He was also a visitor at the home of his son, B. F. Goodman east of Manley for a few days as well. Baseball by Radio Daily Down at Atlanta, Georgia, the followers of the national pastime do not have to expose themselves to the rays of the heated sun in bleacher seats to keep in touch with the daily doings of the home team, for The Atlanta Journal, first with many broadcasting innovations in the past year, has instituted a daily baseball Bervices direct from the grounds. WSB's microphone installed in the grandstand, absorbs every detail of the Southern league contest. Includ ing the crack of bat and ball, the cheering of the spectators and the solicitations of the the peanut and soda pop venders. Although thous ands of listeners throughout that section get their news of the game free, the management of the baseball team has found it boosts rather than cuts down his attendance, for when out-of-town fans come to Atlanta, they invariably head for the baseball grounds where they can see as well as hear of the action taking place on the diamond. It was the same way with grand opera in New York. Af ter refusing persistently to permit broadcasting of the opera, a trial was conducted, and presto, the here tofore vacant seats at the Metropoli tan were filled with interested patr ons, many of whom had heard the broadcast and wished to see first hand the presentation. In the same way, radio could boom the sales of sheet' music, and we be lieve the Music Publishers' associa tion is assuming an unwarranted position in their royalty demands. Visits Former Home A. N. Spear, who formerly was a business man in Manley but who has for the past thirteen years been mak ing his home in Los Angeles where he is engaged in the wholesale lum ber business, accompanied by Mrs. Spear was visiting in Manley guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs. W.

King wheat's throne, which now stands in the cen ter of Liverpool, is to be torn up and transplanted in Chicago, according to plans outlined today by the Na tional Wheat council, in session here. It is claimed the American wheat grower would fare much bet ter at the hands of this world-wide ruler if the royal seat is moved to the producing district. At the close of today's session, an nouncement was made by the com mittee on permanent organization that permanent organization, with executive offices in 'Chicago, had been decided upon. The new organ ization will be incorporated and will engage in all forms of activity that may promote the welfare of wheat farmers in the United States. "The council will especially try to make America the market center for American wheat, instead of Liv erpool, where the price of wheat now is fixed," says a statement by the committee. Application for a charter was signed by a number of men prominent in the railroad and farm implement manufacturing line, the packing industry and representatives of the great farm organizations. GREAT NORTHERN REFUSES TO GIVE FINANCIAL AID And Promoters Still Looking for a Financial "Angel" to Save the Dempsey-Gibbons Fight. St. Paul, Minn., June 28. The Great Northern railroad will not come to the financial rescue of the Dempsey-Gibbons fight at Shelby, Mont., Ralph Budd, president of the road, declared today. Budd issued a statement saying the "Great Northern has no thought of doing anything outside the prov ince of railroad operation." Reports reached here from Shelby that the railroad might aid in raising the third 1100,000 payment to Jack Dempsey to Bave the fight. "The Great Northern's only in terest in the Shelby fight has been to provide railroad service to accom modate the crowds attending the fight and the extra tourist travel incident thereto," said Mr. Budd. "It has been difficult to get any line on the anticipated crowd bo the railroad's plans have necessarily been elastic. As the road is double tracked at that point and the large terminal at Cut Bank only twenty miles away, there Is trackage avail able for storing cars and there has been no necessity for building large additional trackage. "The tracks that have been built are needed for oil development. Be sides the regular depot at Shelby, three cinder platforms have been provided and the Great Northern is otherwise prepared to handle what ever travel develops." Ask Postponement Shelby, Mont., June 28. Gibbons and Dempsey may not fight here July 4 after all. Promoters, unable to find an "angel" to assist them in raising the final $100,000 installment guar anteed to Champion Dempsey, bave asked for a ten-day postponement of the battle. Consent of both battlers will hare to be obtained first. BRYAN IS SPEAKER AT RAIL WORKERS PICNIC Seward, Neb., June 28. Governor Charles Bryan was the principal speaker at -the first annual picnic of the Big Four railroad brotherhood of Lincoln at Seward's fairground park today. There were 500 railroad men and their families attending. The ma jority came on a special train from Lincoln this morning and the others In automobiles. The Nebraska state band of Lincoln gave three con certs. Governor Bryan declared that the last session of the legislature was fio oppressed by lobbies that only minor bills got attention at the expense ol the more important measures. The short ballot, he said, is wrong in principle as it gives too much pow er to the individual. Though the re peal of the code law was defeated In the last legislature, he promised that he will still work to that end. The amusement features of the pic nic were all kinds of foot races. swimming and dancing. GOVERNOR AGAINST COSTLY RECEIVER SHIPSJOR BANKS Appoints New Bank Commission with View of Cutting State Expense Gives One Example. Lincoln. June 27. With the ap pointment of the new bank guaranty law fund commission today Governor Bryan declared explicit war against "the expensive receiverships and the investment bankink which has been eating up the assets of failed banks and leaving all the banks which are members of the fund holding the suck for these exorbitant expenses." --The governor declared that he had selected the new and permanent com mission especially with a view to rooting out this evil. Under the old law the courts have been appointing the receivers for the failed banks and no time limit is set in which the affairs of the banks have to be cleaned up and the re ceiverships terminated. $10,600 Paid Each Agent In the case of the Banking House of Castetter at Blair, $10,600 was paid to each of the two agents who were handling the work of liquidation for Secretary Hart of the state bank ing department, who had had him self appointed receiver. This $21, 200 was paid for the services of the two men for a little over one year, from December 6, 1921, to December 30, 1922. The receivership is still in effect and is now being handled by Hart himself, since he left the bank ing department a week ago. "I have no doubt," the governor said, "that Mr. Knudson, the new head of the banking department, with the new commission I have ap pointed, will be able to be of great service to the banking business of the state, and under the new bank ing law will be able to cut out the waste, extravagance, duplications, etc., in the handling of bank receiv erships by consolidating them and segregating assets so that they may be disposed of in the best interests of the bank and its stockholders; and also to replace every dollar pos sible in the guaranty fund, thus re lieving the strain on the substantial going banks, which have been carry ing the load. A Well Balanced Body "So that the bank depositors of the state would be given full pro tection, I have given no thought to political affiliation in the selection of the commission, but have had only in mind a commission well bal anced, which will be free from all 'entangling alliances' and who are not under obligations to maintain the present extravagant receiver ships and the other expensive ad juncts which have been fastened on the failed banks' affairs and worked an imposition on the contributors to the guaranty fund of the state, a well as to the stockholders of the unfortunate banks. "I desire to commend the mem bers of the various banking groups of the state for the hleh character and business ability of the three men in each group that they have selected, from which 'the new com mission has been selected by me."
