The en thusiastic welcome given George-. Carpentier on his return Monday night from London, where he defeated Joe Beckett, the English heavy welgbl box ing champion, continued unabated to day. Police "barrages" were required every time the champion appeared on the streets and at one time he was obliced to take refuge in a boulevard restaurant which was besieged by a vast crowd. One woman broke through the police cordon and entered the restaurant with a huge boquel of flowers which she presented to Carpentier. Tin I il ter offered a hundred franc note which she refused, saying: "I would have you kiss me." Carpentier kissed the midinette on both cheeks. He was greatly affected, and said: "Is it any wonder I dread to think what would have happened had 1 been defeated In London."

I wish I had as many Germans to my credit as you have," said the pugil ist "I would feel prouder than I do now. But I was always a poor avia tor."

Dec. r The text of j President Wilson's proposal to the coal miners follows: "I have watched with deep concern tho developments in the bituminous coal strike and am convinced there Is much confusion in the minds of the people generally and possibly of both (parties to this unfortunate controver sy as to the attitude and purposes of the government in its handling of the situation. "The mine owners offered a wage Increase of 20 per cent conditioned, however, upon the price of coal being 'raised to an amount sufficient to cover j t this proposed increase of wages, which would have added at least $150.090. 0U0 ; to the annual coal bill of the people.! The fuel administrator in the light of present information has taken the po j sitlon and I think with entire justifica tion, that the public Is noy, paying as high prices for coal as it ought to be; required to pay nnd that any wage in-; crease made at this time ought to come out of the profits of the coal op erators. "Iu reaching this conclusion the fuel i administrator expressed the personal, opinion that the 14 per cent increase, in all mine wages is reasonable be cause it would equalize the miners' j wages on the average with the cost of, living, but he made it perfectly clear: that the operators and miners are at I liberty to agree upon a larger increase! j provided the operators will pay it out of their profits so that the price of jco.U would remain the same. "The secretary Of labor, in an effort at conciliation between the parties, ex-' 'pressed his personal opinion in favor jof a larger Increase. His effort at1 .conciliation failed, hower. because the. coal operators were unwilling to pay! the scale he proposed unless the gov I : eminent would advance the price of coal to the public and this the govern ment was unwilling lo d "The luel administrator had also suggested that a tribunal be created, in which the miners and operators would be equally represented to con Bider further questions of wages and i WOrkine conditions as well as nrofits 1 of operators and proper prices for coal. I shall of course, be glad to aid in the formation of such a tribunal. Price to Remain Same "I understand the operators havej generally agreed to absorb an increase of 14 per cent in wages, so that ihe public would pay not to exceed the', present price fixed by the fuel admin istration, and thus a way is opened I to secure the coal of which th3 poo j pie stand in need, if the miners will resume work oil these terms pending 1 i thorough investigation by an im-j pait.al commission which may read-! inct nMrrf.o , 1 rrinnc I "By the acceptance of such a plan, the miners are assured immediate; steady employment at a substantial in I crease in wages and are further as sured prompt Investigation and action! ipon questions which are not settled! to their satisfaction. I must believe that with a clear understanding of these points, they will promptly return I to work. If, nevertheless, they per sist in remaining on strike, thev will put themselves in an attitude of striking in order to force the govern ment to increase the price of coal to the public, so as to give a still further increase in wages at this time ralhei 'than allow the quunticn of a further inctcase in wages to be dealt with In J an orderly manner by a fairly consti tuted tribunal representing all prtie Interested. "No group of our people can justify I .uch B position and the miners owe it to themselves. .' cur families, their' PATIENT ESCAPES FROM THE ' PESTHOUSE AND MAY SPREAD I SMALLPOX IN HIS TRAVELS I Roy Roscoe, aged 2S, an inmate of th pest house In Ogden since Novem ber 28, escaped from the institution at 2 o'clock this morning, according to Chief Sanitary Inspector George Shorten At the time of his depar ture, Roscoe was dangerously III, ill5 pustules completely covering his face.

I shall be glad to aid in the prompt formation of such a tribunal as has been indicated to nlake further inquiries into this whole hinder :nd to reiew not only the rea sonableness of the wages at which th miners start to work, but also the rea f ar.ableness of Ihe government prlc?s for coal. Such a tribunal should it!)) sixty davs make its report, which eoulci be usedas a basis for ne gotiation for n wage agreement.
