Chicago, April 22. The next move
of insurgent railroad strikers In the
Chicago district, aplit by a revolt
"against their own leaders, was awaited
to-day by federal officials and railroad
representatives while traffic conditions
throughout the middle and far west
rapidly returned to normal.
In the Chicago district, which first
felt the weight of the strike, livestock
movement yesterday was reported
greater than a year ago. and the rail
roads announced 1,148 carloads of coal
were moved. On the Pacific coast cars
were being placed for fruit shipments.
Several '"rebel" leaders, repudiated
yesterday by the strikers when at a
mass meeting they counseled ending
the walkout because they "could not
fight the government," abandoned the
strike and led small groups of switch
men back to the yards.
John Grunau, president of the Chi
cago Yardmen's association, the first
body to go out on the unauthorized
strike, was in conference to-day with
strikers to determine what course to
pursue. He was released from tho Jo

The Metal Workers' Union
Is Striking for $7 for a
Six-Hour Day
Butte, Mont., April 22. City and
county authorities to-day investigated
a clash late yesterday near the Never
sweat mine here in which 14 men were
shot. Most of the wounded were said
to be pickets placed about the mine
following the calling of a strike Sun
day by the Metal Mine Workers' union
to enforce demands, including a wage
of $7 for a six-hour day and release of
"all political prisoners."
The shooting began, according to the
sheriff, while he and a force of deputies
were trying to disperse a crowd at the
gates or the etocKade about tne mine.
The first shot, the sheriff said, was
fired from a window of a nearby board
ing house and narrowly missed a dep
uty sheriff. Immediately afterward
he said, "shots were bred in all direc
tions."
Both police officers and the deputy
sheriffs said they fired no shots.
Immediately after the shooting an
extra, edition of a newspaper calling
upon all workers in the county to lay
down their tools and stop the wheels
of industry" as a protest against the
shooting of pickets appeared. Speakers
at a mass meeting last night were
quoted as urging their hearers to "arm
yourselves in eell-derense.
A large number of special deputies
were sworn in during the night by the
sheriff.
MIGHT MAKE BILLION
DOLLARS IN COTTON
Children Cry for Fletcher's
If There Were Closer Relations Be
tween Cotton Growers and Spin
ners, Says H. M. Cottrell.
Boston, April 22. An increase of
more than $1,000,000,000 a year in the
value of rot ton to the growers in this
country and a better quality of prod
uct tor the spinners could be attained
through closer relations between cot
ton grower and spinner, H. M. Cottrell
of Little Rock, Ark., to-day told the
National Association of Cotton Manu
facturers in annual meeting here.
Growers who produce annually cot
ton valued at $2,000,000,000 are with
out information from the manufactur
ers, Mr. Cottrell said, concerning the
grades and staples and the quantities
of each required by the spinners, lie
unfed the manufacturers to make
survey of the cotton gTowing areas in
co-operation with local specialists to
determine the staples and grades most
profitable for each locality to raise and
which will be best adapted lor uie
spinners' use.
A permanent decrease in rot ton
acreage unless the movement from the
farms to the cities can be checked
through making cotton raising more
profitable and life on cotton farms
more attractive, was forecast by Mr.
Cottrell. For the past five years, he
said, enormous quantities of cotton
have stood in the field until so badly
damaged by weather that it brought
ess than the cost of production be
cause there were not enough pickers to
Rather it at the proper time.
ftherman Kogers of Acw ork told
the manufacturers that by imparting
industrial .information to their work
ncnien in direct contradiction to the
'lying propaganda of the agitator,"
they would use the most effective meth
od of combatting industrial unrest
miring the past summer, he said, J
parted coal mines, steel fields, stork -ards
and other industrial centers.
Everywhere I found a veritable army
of agitators. I found working men's
homes filled with scores of radical
booklets. But I did not, during my
whole trip, hear a single contradiction
of the bolshevik arguments."
He advocated closer relationship lie-
ween employer and employe, and de-
l clared that "shop representation will
I solve fll per cent of all the dilnVultlei
I between the management and the

DOES YOUR BACK ACHE?
- If you are troubled with back achea,
it is a bet that they are caused by
weak kidneys.; they don't perform their
duties, and you should look out, as
there ia trouble brewing. ,
When your kidneys get sluggiih and
clog, you suffer from backache, head
e.che, dizzy spells, and it is more than
likelv to brinsf on rheumatism.
The urine is often cloudy, full of
sediment, your sleep disturbed by being
compelled to arise, one or more times
during the night, because of the pain,
irritation and abnormal condition of
the kidneys and bladder.
If you will take from 10 to 20 drops
of SEVEN BARKS in a little water
after meals, you will correct the alka
linity of your secretions, thus giving
you undisturbed sleep and peaceful
rest, preparing you for your next day'a
duties.
When the kidneys are not doing
their duty they allow impurities to
accumulate and be converted into uric
acid and other poisons, which will
cause 'aerious trouble unless they are
driven from your system.
If you eat meat regularly, you
should fluxh the kidneys occasionally
with SEVEN BARKS, as meat forms
uric acid, which clogs the pores, so
they , cannot throw oil the poisons.
Don't neglect your kidney trouble
with the first symptoms, you will be
sorry if you do. .Get SEVEN BARKS
of your druggist, at a cost of only 60
cents. Adv.

Put a church in a town and it becomes at once a

and general community improvement.
Put a church in a town and you insure a community
where law and order reign, where the personal and

where children grow up trained in the ideals that
have made America great.

Kill the church and you cut the nerve of your hos

even of respect for government itself.
Thirty denominations, realizingthat the problems fac

nomination alone, are cooperating in a great f orward

No modern business could have made a more scien

Washington, D. C April 22. Re
ports from the pring wheat regions of
a plan for reduced acreage this year
caused the department of agriculture
to issue a statenu-nt to-day urging
farmers to revise their planting plans.
Weather conditions and a shortage of
farm labor have affected the planting.
but statistics presented by the de
partment advised increased production
because- of the poor condition of the
winter crop and the continued world
demand for wheat.
The normal requirements for con
sumption and export are about , 800,
000,000 bushels. Of this amount only
483,617,000 bushels is indicated from
the winter wheat this year. The world
demand, it waa pointed out, will be as
great as usual and none can be ex
pected from Australia becaune of a
poor wheat year, and the dutorganized
transportation conditions make im
probable the movement of the &5.000,
000 bushel Russia has announced she
will have ready for export.
It wa pointed out that the esti
mated 4S.1.617.000 bushels of winter
wheat may be even less because of
winter killed fields and indications
that the hessian fly will be unusually
active through large areas. The grass

EX-SOLDIERS DOING
WELL AT COLLEGE
Small Percentage of Absolute Failures
Wa Reported By
College.
"How are the former soldiers doiniz
at college?" is a question asked and
answered in a recent publication of the
I nited Mates bureau of education, de
partment of the interior. Summariz
ing returns to an inquiry made by one
of the church boards of education, the
bureau finds that as a rule "the re
turned soldier has fallen into his old
stride and is doing work about the
same as before entering the service."
One college president reported that
his ex-soldier students had not done
very well and that they were restless I
and found it hard to concentrate on
their work. This same answer was
received from another institution where
16 ex-service men had registered at
the beginning of the school year. Two
of these had withdrawn. The rest did
not do as well as hoped because of un
rest due to indecision as to the future
they wanted to follow and the result
ing" quandary as to what preparation
they should make.
Albion college, however, reported
that the majority of ex-service men
had done excellent work, especially
those who had been in college before
entering the service. A number of oth
er institutions reported their returned
men doing work above the average.
The report from Missouri Wesleyan
college was that these men were doing
far above what they did previous to
the war, the grades indicating that the
work of the service men is of a very
high order. The U per cent students
receiving all "A" grades were all ex
service men. There were very few
failures among the returned men at
this college, showing that they realised
the benefit of an education and the .
importance of hard, diligent work.
The majority of schools did not ac
centuate either eueces or failure of
ex-service men in the firt semester's
wrk. but on the whole the men were
repjted as having rapidly readjusted
themselves to their work.
More Surviving Examination!.
In answer to a question as to how
the student body survived the mid
year examinations, the majority of
colleges reported an improvement in
the average of previous years. As
uviial, failures in individual courses
were greater in number than failure
such as to exclude the student from
eontinuing.
The percentage of complete failures
was variously reported from 2 tj per
cent. One school reported financial
reasons and reasons other than scholar
ship as causing a loss of 42 students;
whereas scholarship caused a loss of
only I". Of the tiret number six were
seniors who were graduated.
At the I niversitv of tnattanooga
the mid-year examinations showed the
lowest percentage of freshman mortal
ity in the historr of the university.
This was attributed to a bulletin pub
lished at the end of each 3l day quls
period with the names and scholarship
average or the nrt l" in eacn or tue
college classes. This stimulated a
great dell of profitable rivalry, it is

Women Averaged Higher.
When aoked to compare the grades
received by men and women the al- ,
most universal answer was thst the ;
grade of women averaged hicher. '
