John Hammond, Returning
From the Orient, Says Island
Kingdom Would Stop Wars.
Honolulu, Oct. 20.—John Hammond,
mining engineer, arrived from Japan
Thursday suffering from an attack of
ptomaine poisoning contracted during
n three months' tour of Japan. Mr.
Hammond's condition is not. serious,
although he is confined to his state
room. Ile will continue his journey
to the mainland Friday.
That the business inen and finan
ciers of Japan are sincere in their
expressed desire to maintain peace in
the Pacific, was the opinion expressed
by the American mining expert. He
pointed out as an argument in sup
port of this conclusion that the United
States buys four times the amount of
goods from Japan purchased by the
remainder of the world.
"The military element in Japan still
must be considered," Mr. Hammond
paid, "but the Japanese people are
amenable to reason, especially owing
to ihe achievements of the United
States -in the world war. Also the
pacifist element throughout the coun
try is strong.
"The principal complaint in Japan
is on the score of taxation. The fi
nanciers realize that war with the
United States would be costly, par
ticularly in view of Japan's adverse
trade balance and the difficulty she
would face in obatining credit abroad.
The militarists know that Japan is
safe from invasion and they also
realize that the United States is
similarly immune."
Mining Congress
Discusses Question
of State Taxation
Chicago, Oct. 20.—State taxation of
mining properties was a subject of es
pecial consideration Wednesday at the
national mine tax conference being
held here in conjunction with the 24th
annual convention of the American
Mining congress.
McKinley AV. Kreigh, chief of the
tax division of the American Mining
congress, in defining the purposes of
the conference, declared that the
"greatest waste in the mining indus
try today is that resulting from the to
tal loss of enormous tonnages of ores
which could lie mined at a profit if it
were not for high taxes."
Increased taxes in many states, in
stead of augmenting state revenues,
actuilly reduced the volume of taxable
proMTty, make valueless rock of an
enomious tonnage of ore and destroy
vast present and potential sources of
revenue."
" Bloodless Surgery"
of Face Described
by Scientific Paper
Philadelphia. Oct. 20—Use-of "Wood
less surgery'' on the face was described
in papers read Wednesday before the
convention of the American Academy
of Ophthamology and Otolaryngology.
Radium needles are among the instru
ments used in this work, as explained
by Dr. E. K. Hecke and Dr. William
R. Clark of Pittsburgh. With them,
according to the doctors, birth marks,
tumors and other malignant growths
may lie made to disappear. It was said
the advantages of this method over
knife surgery were that the growths
seldom reappeared.
Plastic surgery on the face by which
new eyelids are grafted and even rib
bones inserted in the face to build it
up, was discussed.
I)r. Walter H. Ii. Parker, Detroit,
was elected president.
Minneapolis was chosen as the next
convention city.

Miner's Union Has Lost
Public Confidence Says
Official of Coal Company
Chicago» Oct. 20.—A high wag«
scale on paper with no work will
not help the miner, but « fair
wage scale with regular work
will build his yearly earnings to
a basis of American living and
allow the coal operator to offer
cheap fuel to the consumer and
reduce the producing cost of all
commodities, Harry N. Taylor of
Kansas City, vice president of the
Central Coal and Coke company,
told delegates to the American
Mining congress here Thursday.
Asserting that he personally
had the h ghest regard for labor
unions "fairly conducted," Mr.
Taylor said the unions had an op
portunity to play a leading part in
the national readjustment and
urged that they take advantage
of it.
"If, however," he said, "the
miners continue their efforts to
make a readjustment of an abnor
mal wage scale and on April I
call a nation-wide strike, the
operators must assume ?. public
duty of standing for the public
rights, and the thinking men
. of this country must stand behind
them in the hpttle for the good of
American industry and American
freedom against a labor autoc
racy."
Mr. Taylor declared that he had
learned from observation that the
labor unions had done much for
the wage earner and had, in many
instances, brought him comfort
and contentment ttyat otherwise
could not have been produced.
"But the miners' organization
must be purged," he said, "of the
rad cal and revolutionary leader
ship that has sprung up in many
districts before it can hope to re
gain its standing in public es
teem. Many of the leaders, in
their greed for power, have be
come more and more unreasonable
until they are making it impos
sible for many mines to operate.

Peace and Good Understanding
Among Powers Is Vital
Declares Lloyd George.
London. Oct. 20.—Following closely
upon the British government's an
nounced determination to aid in solving
the unemployment situation by the ex
tension of extraordinarily large credits
and the declaration that no Briton is
to starve. David Lloyd George, the
prime minister, delivered a notable ad
dress in parliament outlining the gov
ernment's policy both with regard to
trade and unemployment. The premier
declared that the entire situation was
the result of the world war and that
a good understanding between nations,
together with trade rehabilitation, was
the essential remedy for a cure.
In outlining the government's pro
posal to alleviate unemployment, Mr.
Lloyd George made the following dec
laration:
"Peace and a good understanding
among nations is vital. Let us get out
of the atmosphere where if you talk
about a German without a frown on
your brow you are no patriot. Trade
cannot start in such an atmosphere. If
you intervene to make peace, your mo
tives are misunderstood: but if Great
Britain will not do it. who will? We
stand for stability. We want to see the
nations begin again the tasks of peace."
The entire speech was a plea that the
country is suffering from the results
of the war, and a declaration that
restoration rests upon the revival of
industry and the rehabilitation of the
purchasing power abroad, and that a
revival in trade depends largely upon
the bringing about of a good under
standing among nations.
BILL PROHIBITS LYNCHING
Washington, Oct. 20.—The Byerand
lynching bill, imposing heavy penalties
on persons involved in mob action re
sulting in the taking of life, was or
dered favorably reported by Ihe house
judiciary committee Thursday.
driven the mining industry to the
open shop will they learn that
through their greed they have lost
all that the conservative leaders
of former years had gained for
them."
Support of his bill, pending in
the senate for creation of a new
executive department of the na
tional government to be known as
the department of mines and pre
sided over by a member of the
cabinet, the secretary of mines,
was urged by United States Sen
ator Samuel D. Nicholson of Colo
rado, in an address .before the
American Mining congress.
Senator Nicholson reviewed the
confusion which arose in Wash
ington during the war when, he
said, "it became necessary to
create new bureaus in order to
stimulate production of the mines,
the output of which was essen
tial to the prosecution of the
war."
"Because of the raoid growth
of the mining industry and the
position of increasing importance
that it has and will continue to
assume for the nation as a whole,
there should be no question but
that it is entitled to cabinet rep
resentation," Senator Nicholson
said.
"It should now be apparent
that, notwithstanding the abund
ance of our agricultural yield, we
have over five million men whose
unemployment largely resu.'iis
from the depressed condition of
the mining industry. Many con
structive laws have been enacted
for tho benefit of the agricul
tural industry and I contend that
the welfare of the mining indus
try is as fundamentally important
to the general welfare and pros
perity of the nation as the agri
cultural industry, and that con
sideration should now be given the
request of that industry for a
department of mines with cabinet
representation."

Fourth Increase
in Crude Oil Made
to Tempt Producers
Pittsburgh. Oct. ,20.—The 'ourth
increase in the price of crude o I this
month was announced here Wednes
day by the principal purchasing agen
cies at the epeining of the market, an
advance of 2T> cents a barrel on the
following grades:
I'ennsvlvania crude. $.'1.50: Uornine,
$3.15; Cabell. $2.30; Somerset. $2.1"»;
Somerset light. $2.40. Itagland, the
only heavy oil quoted in this n arket,
was advanced 15 cents a barrel to
$1.15.
Oil authorities stated that pievious
advances had failed to bring o it the
desired quantities of oil from produc
ers, and that drilling had not been re
sumed. They added, however, tl at the
new price might be expected to stimu
late both sales and exploration.
Drug Habit Growing
at Alarming Rate
Says Sarah Mulhall
Philadelphia, Oct. 20. ; —Sarah Gra
ham Mulhall, former deputy commis
sioner of the narcotic control board of
New York, told the American Humane
society here that conditions resulting
from drug addiction in the United
States were "appalling" and that the
habit was spreading "alarmingly" among
public and private school children.
"Large numbers of school children in
New York mostly of high school age."
she said, "have become addicted to tbe
use of drugs. Peddlers frequently are
arrested while handing out. packages
of narcotics to school children, who
play 'hookey' in order to make sales at
a profit of 25 cents a package. Police
records show as many as four children,
from 12 to 15 years of age, arrested
in one day for selling drugs."
The convention voted to send a copy
of Mrs. Mulhall's address to members
of congress, state legislators and cler
gymen throughout the country.

Twin Falls, Ida., Oct. 20.—The
prosecution in the case of Mrs. Lyda
