PRESIDENT SAYS
PROPOSED STRIKE
IS NOUAWFUL
Issues Statement to Operators
and Coal Miners and Asks
That Strike Order Be
Recalled.
(Continued from Pag On.)
the officers of the . organization
have issued a dall to make the
strike effective November I. This
is one of the gravesf steps ever pro
posed in this country affecting the
economic welfare and the domestic
comfort and health of the people.
It is proposed to abrogate an agree
ment as to wages which was made
with the sanction of the United
States fuel administration and which
was to run during the continuance
of the war, but not beyond April 1,
1920. This strike is proposed at a
time when the government is mak
ing the most earnest effort to re
duce the cost of living and has ap
pealed with success to other classes
of workers to postpone similar dis
putes until a reasonable opportunity
has been afforded for dealing with
the cost of living. It is recognized
that the strike would practically
shut off the country's supply of its
principal fnel at a time when inter
ference wijh that supply is calcu
lated to create a disasterous fuel
famine. All interests would be af
fected alike by a strike of this char
acter and its victims would be not
the rich only, but the poor and the
needy as well those least able to
provide in advance a fuel supply
for domestic use. It would involve
the shuuting down of countless in
dustries and the throwing out of
employment of a large number of
workers of the country. It would
involve stopping, the operation of
raiirpads, electric light and gas
plants, street railway lines and other
public utilities, and the shipping to
and from this country thus prevent
ing our giving aid to the allied coun
tries with supj'ies which they so
seriously need. The country is con
fronted with this prospect at a time
when the war itself is still a fact,
when the world is still in suspense
as to negotiations for peace, when
our troops are still being trans
ported and when their means of
transport is in urgent need of
fuel;
Strike Called Unlawful.
"From whatever angle the subject
may be viewed, it is apparent that
such a strike in such circumstances
would be the most far-reaching plan
ever presented in this country to
limit the faciliticsof production and
distribution of a' necessity of life,
and thus indirectly to restrict the
production and distribution of all
the necessaries of life. A strike un
der these circumstances is not only
unprofitable, it is unlawful. '
"The action proposed has ap
parently been taken without any
vote upon the specific proposition
by the individual members of the
United Mine Workers of America
throughout the United States, an
almost unprecedented proceeding. I
cannot believe that any right of any
American worker reeds for its pro
tection the taking of this extraordi
nary afrn. unit I am convinced that
when the time and money are con
sidered, it constitutes a fundamental
attack, which is wrong both morally
and legally, upon the rights of so
ciety and upon the welfare of our
country. I feel convinced that in
dividual members of the United
Mine Workers would not vote, upon
full consideration, in favor of such
a strike under these conditions.
Public Interest First.
"When a movement reaches a
point where it appears to involve
practically the entire productive ca
pacity of the country with respect to
one of the most vital necessities of
daily domestic and, industrial life,
and when the movement is asserted
in the circumstances I have stated
and at a time and in a manner cal
culated to involve the maximum of
dangers in the public welfare in this
critical hour of our country's life, the
public interest becomes the para
mount consideration.
VIn these circumstances. I sol
emnly rc'quest both the national and
the local officers and also the indi
vidual members of the United Mine
Workers to recall all orders looking
to a strike on November 1 and to
take whatever steps may be neces
sary to prevent any stoppage of
work.
"It is time for plain speaking.
.These matters with which we now
-deal touch not only the welfare of
a rlnnc hut vitftllv "rnnrerti th well
being, the comiort and the very lite
of all the people. I feel it is my
duty in the public interest to declare
that any attempt to carr out the
purpose of this strike and thus to
paralyze the industry of the country
with the consequent suffering and
distress of our people must be con
sidered a grave, moral and legal
wrong against the government and
the people of the United States. I
can do nothing less than to say that
the law will be inforced and the
means will be found to protect the
interests of the nation in any emer
gency that may arise out of this un
v happy business.
"I express no opinion on the
merits of the controversy. I have
already suggested a plan by which
a settlement may be reached and I
hold myself in readiness at the re
quest of either or both sides to ap
point at one a tribunal to investi
gate all the facts with a view to
aiding in the earliest possible settle
ment of the questions at issue be
tween the coal operators and the
miners, to the end that the just
rights not only of those interested
bijt also of the general public may
be fully protected!

GRAVE OF MOTHER
Writes Will on feank Check
Before Killing Self in
Mineola, la.
Glenwood, la., Oct. 25. (Special.)
Lying dead between the graves of
his mother and sister, the body or
Henry Wolf of Omaha was found
today by Fred Lawson in the Mine
ola cemetery. He had a revolver
clutched in his hand. Death was
caused by a shot in the throat and
Sheriff Edwards says he unquestion
ably committed suicide. His money
and personal belongings were undis
turbed. A will written on. the back of a
blank bank check made provision
for the distribution of his property
and bid his family and friends good
by. The will was written in Ger
man. He is. said to be wealthy and
iiuurvived by his widow and a step
son. He was born m Germany 5J
years ago.
, He drove to the cemetery in his
automobile which he left standing
outside. He had been dead about
24 hours when found.
. Mr. Wolf formerly lived in Mi
neola, later moving to Emerson,
Neb. He was recently married after
which he moved to Omaha.
President Wilson
Spends Quiet Day;
Does No Business
" " i
Washington, Oct. 25. President
Wilson spent a quiet day and his
physicians said he continued to hold
the gains he has made recently.
No routine executive business was
laid before him. Several minor bills
reached the White House from the
capitol and the Department of Jus
tice sent over a number of pardon
cases to await the presidents ac
tion. The one exception to the "no
work "today" rule applied by Dr.
Grayson was a report from the cab
inet, which held morning and late
afternoon sessions to discuss the
impending coal strike. ,
Dr. F. X. Dercum, the Philadel
phia neurologist, made his weekly
visit to the president and Dr. Gray
son discussed with him the desira
bility of reducing the number of
daily bulletins owing to the contin
ued improvement in the president's
condition and the resulting "same
ness" of the word from the sick
room. It is Dr. Grayson's idea that
lie may issue one bulletin each day
instead of two, or possibly limit
them to one 'every other day.
Postmaster General Burleson
called at the White House and i sit
ed Dr. Grayson to lay before the
president some official business, but
the physician did not do so, as ne
did not wish to deviate from his
rule that the president spend the
day in quiet.
Clocks Turned Back
One Hour to Normal
KContlnufd From hie One.)
for him to-deal with, he says. Hence
he is rejoicing over the repeal of
the daylight savings law.
For two years, the clocks were
moved forward one hour in the
spring and moved back one hour in
the fall, but from now on the time
pieces will remain on the old basis
as the daylight saving law was re
pealed by the present congress over
the veto of President Wilson.
V Primarily a War Measure.
The law was designed primarily
as a war measure to increase food
and war material production by of
fering an additional hour of daylight
for workmen. The first complaint
over the new time came from the
farmers, who declared the law was
working hardships on them by caus
ing extreme early rising- Many
farmers in Nebraska and Iowa ig
nored the change in time.
Representatives of the farmers
opened the fight against the mea
sure and although President Wil
son vetoed the repeal of the law,
sufficient majorities in the house
and senate were secured to sustain
(the repeal, and the daylight savings
law was repealed.
Omaha women also took an ac
tive part in the fight for the repeal
of the law, charging that it worked
a hardship on the children of the
land. Thousands of names were se
cured on petitions for repeal and
sent to Washington.
A bulletin hae been issued to em
ployes by the Omaha and Council
Bluffs Street Railway Co., instruct
ing men who are not on duty, to
turn all timepieces back before re
tiring. Men on duty at 2 will turn
their watches back. The change i.
time will not affect the schedule of
running time, officials say.
Lodge Leads in Fight
For Peace Amendments
(Continued from Page One.)
Britain and her dominions in any
decisions bv the league was op
posed as impracticable and un
workable by (Senator McLumDer,
republican, North Dakota, and by
Senator Thomas, democrat, Colo
rado. They both urged a reservation
on the, subject, but Senator Borah,
republican, Idaho, argued that the
situation could best be met by
amending the treaty.
Hitchcock Makes Request
The request for an agreement to
vote Saturday was made by Sena
tor Hitchcock. Nebraska, the admin
istration leader and included both
the Johnson amendment and that by
Senator Moses, republican. New
Hampshire, which deals with the
same subject. Objection promptly
was made by Senator Johnson, re
publican, California, author of the
former measure, who said that Sen
ator Reed, democrat. Missouri, de
sired to speak for the amendment
and was unable to be present be
cause of illness.
ORGANIZED LABOR
WILL PRESERVE
RIGHT TO STRIKE
LeadersGive Warning Passage
in Congress of Anti-Strike
islation Will Mean
Nation-Wide Walkout.
Legi
Washington, Oct. 25. Organized
labor intends to preserve the right
to strike, officials of the American
Federation of Labor said in warning
that passage in the congress of the
anti-strike legislation proposed in the
pending railroad bill would result in
an immediate 'general walkout over
the country.
William H. Johnston, president of
the International Association of
Machinisists, second largest union
affiliated with the federation, said
"direct action" might be resorted to
if all other means of advancing the
interests of the unions failed. He"
referred particularly to what he
termed the eforts of employers to
shut out unions by binding their
workers with individual contracts.
Mr. Johnston announced that with
the passage of the anti-strike legis
lation he would order immediately a
vote on a strike of the 350,000 mem
bers of his association and predicted
that the heads of the other 112 in
ternational unions in the American
Federation of Labcr would take
similar action.
Why Heads Summoned.,
It was said today that this legisla
tion was one of the principal rea
sons why the heads of the unions
in the federation were to be sum
moned here for a conference in the
near future.
Officials of the four railroad
brothehoods conferred today with
Samuel Gompers, president, and
other officers of the federation.
Present at the conference also
were representatives o(f the follow
ing farmers' organizatibns:
The National Board of Farm Or
ganizations, the Federation of Milk
Producers, the American Society of
Equity asd the National Farmers'
union.
Mr. Gompers issued the following
statement at the conclusion of the
meeting:
"General discussion ensued re
garding the legislation pending in
congress inimicable to the rights
and interests of industrial and agri
cultural workers.
Further Discussion.
! "Further discussion ensued re
garding legislation which should be
urged at the hands of congress in
the interests of the above.
"It was decided that the call the
conference determined upon by the
executive council of the American
Federation of Labor should be
jointly issued by the executive
council of the American Federation
of Labor and the railroad brother
hoods., "It was decided that the confer
ence should take phce in Washing
ton, Saturday, December 13.
The representatives of the farm
ers' organizations, although rn en
tire sympathy with the discussion
and purposes, stated that they had
no authority from their organiza
tions to join in the call for the con
ference, but that their convention,
which would be held within a month
from now, would De giaa to receive
invitatiofts upon which to act and
select delegates for the December
13 conference.
Appeal to Farmers.
Some close observers of the in
dustrial situation said an alliance
Ifctween the federation and the
brotherhoods appeared more than
probable. Ihey pointed to tne
anti-strike' legislation and the notice
of the railroad workers that they
soon would seek to force increases
in wages as reasons why the broth
erhoods would desire such an alli
ance. Charles S. Barrett, president of
the National Farmers' union and one
of the farmers' representatives in
the national industrial conference
here', issued an' appeal to the farm
ers to "be prepared to aid our be
loved country in her present hour
of need."
"Menaced by entrenched privilege
on the one hand and a perilous 'red'
prapaganda on the other," said Mr.
Barrett, "the nation is facing the
most dangerous situation since the
civil war. Although revling in plenty,
though business was never more
plentiful, though employment was
never more gnral, the country is
sittine on a oowder magazine which
threatens at any moment to explods,.
Mice Officer Shot in

(Continued from Page Oae.)
Day and Mayne ran the ad offer
ing $100 for the return of the car.
Friday the firm received the fol
lowing note:
"Gentlemen: Have noted your

erything within a week or two. A
word to the wise is sufficient. Don't
try to call the police to your assist
ance, it you try a croowed move

Your car is worth $585, so don't try
to double-cross us, as it would cause
you to lose your car or we will pro

bers, a hammer and another toot.
We mention these articles to show
you we have your car."
Leaves Note in Office.
Saturday afternoon the autox thief
came into the office of the firm in
Council Bluffs, but both members
of the firm were out and he left the
following note:
"If vou will be at the end of the
car tracks at Benson between 7 and
7:30 will fix things up with you.
Come alone and bring one of your
larsre for-sale siens so I will know
you. Come sure tonight. Come on
the street car,"
At 6:15 last niarht the two mem
bers of the firm returned to the of
fice and upon finding the note im
mediately came to Omaha and no
tified the police. Officers Samardick
and E. R. Rutherford were detailed
to accompany the two men to the
assigned place.

A plea for "real sanity" also was
made by Secretary Lane, who acted
as chairman of the industrial confer
ence. In announcing that he had
written the president, supporting
the recommendation that a new
body be created to carry on the
work for which the conference was
called, Mr. Lane said he wanted to
see "a new conference of leading

TIRED SERGEANT
RESTS HEAD IN LAP
' OF GIRL FRIEND
Monotony of Guard Duty at
Court House Relieved by
Fair Sex.
An investigation resulting from a
letter received by The Bee, charg
ing that a number of young girls
were accustomed to loiter about the
east entrance of the court house till
late hours of the night, in company
with soldier guards, showed the
charge to be true.
A reporter stopped at the east
entrance of the court house Satur
day night Several soldiers were
conversing with three young girls
in the entrance of the automobile
driveway. As he paused one of the
girls exclaimed:
"All right, we'll go with you,"
and the group moved north on Sev
enteenth street.
Entering the building by the east
entrance the reporter was chal
lenged by a guard. He explained
that he was a newspaper man, but
the guard still hesitated. He finally
turned to a man who was reclining
in the arms of a girl.
"How about it, sergeant? Shall
we let him pass?" he asked. Without
raising his head from the girls lap
the sergeant replied:
"Sure, let him go in."
The building was deserted, with
the exception of a few soldiers
sleeping on cots on the second
floor. No commissioned officer was
in sight. When the reporter left
the building by the same entrance
several minutes later the sergeant
was still reclining in the girl's arms.
The three other girls and the sol
diers they had been talking to had
disappeared.
Fright Returns Voice.
Reading, Pa., Oct. 25. Peter S.
Gerhart, 40 years old, who lost his

him that he shouted out loud, and

You Already Know
It is the Dainty Enclosed Model of the
Car Men Everywhere Praise so Highly
The Essex Sedan
!A legion of friends waited the coming of the
Essex Sedan. It came, already known, in a sense.
The touring model foretold its quality and perform
ance. It hinted the dainty beauty to be expected.
So men bought the first Essex Sedans, unseen
solely on what they knew of the touring model.
Now It Speaks
For Itself
More than 1,500 Essex Sedans are now in serv
ice. Every day more than 100 new Essex owners
are added. Of these, a large proportion get Sedans.
It is becoming the popular all-seasons car.
Just hear what owners say of the way it excels
its promise. Their chief joy is in its nimbleness.
Abundant surplus power handles the extra weight
.of the Sedan with ease.
That is why many buy it who formerly found
enclosed cars too sluggish to be desirable.
Big Car Performance
Small Car Economy
These days everyone is talking about the . Essex
Sedan. You will hear much that may lead you to
regard it as a large high-priced car, because owners
in describing it invariably compare it with big
costly cars. '
Their speech reflects the spaciousness of its in
terior; its luxury finish; its solidness and quiet
riding ease. All qualities usually regarded as ex
clusive to big, expensive cars.
Yet the Essex is not a large car. It has th
wanted big car qualities. But it also enjoys such
advantages as upkeep economy, handling ease and
liveliness, that are exclusive to light weight cars.
Any motorist knows that such qoaBty, materia! and
workmanship would be impossible in a big ear at
the Essex price. m
Essex Size No Bar
to Supreme Performance
One owner writes: "The Essex proves that tha
is no more essential to fine performance in a motos
car than in a watch. It is just the best car qnali-
ties in a small case."
The Essex was designed as just such a ear. Hot
it met our aim is best answered by what thousand!
who own and know the Essex say of it. Come and
ride in the Sedan. See if you, too, find the appeal
that won so many admirers. ;
Women like its daintiness. The finish and pleas
Ing appointments gratify discriminating taste. It ii
the sort of car you instinctively expect to see in
any gathering of fine motors. "
But it is Essex performance and endurance that
must always appeal strongest to men. Power fo
the hills, speed and endurance to which no distance,
is a barrier, alertness and prompt pick-up ins
crowded traffic these are qualities which will
always win the affection of thorough-going motor
ists. ' i
Another member of the Essex family that will
' especially interest those to whom smartness, com
bined with supreme performance appeals, is tai
Essex Roadster.
From the first Essex popularity has been the
motor sensation of the year. Because in the Essex
men found qualities they, never hoped to obtain
except in high-priced cars.
With two buyers waiting for every Essex we can
produce, it is obvious that you must act promptly;
to secure an early delivery.
