HOWAT STANDS FIRM ON FORBIDDEN STRIKE
Miner Chief Says it Will Continue Until Court Ends It
FACES DOUBLE CHARGE
Hearing Today is for Injunction Violation; Criminal Prosecution May Follow
Pittsburgh, Feb. 8.—The coal miner strike in southeast Kansas is spreading. Two more mines were idle today, Clemens No. 17, and Jackson—Walker No. 15. Failure of the mines has led to an outcry. To work today, was generally accedited as a protest against the bringing of District President Howat into court to fact charges of violating an injunction against calling strikes. The workers in those mines have been loyal supporters of Howat. The Clemens is nearby the Mackie mine in which the original controversy arose.
NUMBER 90
Pittsburgh, Feb. 8. — Alexander Howat, district president of the United Mine Workers of America, today hurried another defy at the state of Kansas whose industrial court law forbids certain kinds of strikes.
"This is not an indefinite strike I have叫. Howd it hurt just a few hours before he must fact Judge Curran, charged with calling a strikes violation of an injunction. "It will last until the court puts an end to it, or until the Mackie Coal Company settles the wages of Carl Mashmash."
As to whether the strike would assume more widespread proportions, Howlett said he would make no proclamation until the decision was rendered.
Those who know Howe were sure he would stand flat on his strike order in the face of an almost certain jail sentence. Judge urried sent Howe to jail once before for contumption of court, then for Currow of Currow for him to do it again.
Rowat refused to make any statement as to his course of action until the arrival from Topeka of Philip Gallery, chief counsel for the minima union. Redmond Brennan, Kansas City attorney, was also expected to arrive today to aid in the defense of the union hends.
Following hearings of the alleged injunction violations, Hopkins said he would take immediate steps to file proceedings against Howat, provided the evidence obtained in an investigation now under way is sufficient.
Attorney General Hopkins said today that the union officials face a double court action. The hearing today is for the violation of the injunction, and the evidence in this case is not yet available. The execution of the mine officials for violation of the industrial court antitrust proviso.
Union headquarters today scaffold the idea of a break between Howat and Secretary-Treasureur Harvey, but doesn't explanation for Harvey's stand.
Hopkins explained that the injunction, the criminal proceedings and all prosecutions that might be directed against the mine workers' officials involved the "affront" to the state. He expects, however, to make an example of Howat and his colleagues if sufficient evidence is developed.

Fowler Shop Students Repair Jointer Machine
Preparations have been made for two hundred girls and it is the wish of the workers that every seat will be occupied. Timunlee may be a great success.
The students in the machine shop of Fowler Shops are making new parts, and doing general repair work on a twelve-inch jointer from the wood-working department of Haskell Institute.
The jointer, which has a twelve inch cutting surface, and ts of medium weight for doing light work, was in a very bad condition when brought to the shops. The students in the foundry have molded a number of new parts, such as handles and adjustment wheels, and these are rapidly being fitted to the machine. The machine is badly out of line with the bed, and the whole machine has undergone a general lining up.
"The jumper was in a very bad condition," said Mr. Rocklund, "and required considerable work. We are always glad for the students to have a jumper to do such jobs as this which are used as well as being very instructive."

State Treasury Only Asked to Lend Money to Build Women's Homes
SENATE COMMITTEE APPROVES DORM BILL
MISS CORBIN AT TOPEKA
Kansas Women Are Working Hard for Passage of Dormitory Measure
The dormitory bill was reported upon favorably last week by the senate committee of the state legislature, according to Miss Alberta Corbin who has returned from Topoka where she has been working the last week in the interests of the dormitory bill.
The bill as now drafted provides that the income from the dormitories shall be returned annually to the state treasury until such time as the total amount of interest and principal shall have been returned to the state. It requires a tax levy which is not to exceed three-tothits mills in any one year and may be paid out of taxes on $3,500 worth of invariable property will have his taxes raised not more than $1.05 per year by the dormitory bill requirements.
"The state is merely being asked to lend its credit to provide suitable homes for women students at the university institution," said Miss Corbin.
She added that the women of the date are trying to inform every member of the legislature in guard to the needs of girls at the state schools, as they believe that the legislators need only to have these needs brought to their notice to scure their support of the bill and to cause the bill to favor the of the bill is growing daily according to Miss Corbin. The bill will probably be voted on by the senate early this week.

Three Games in Pan Hellenic
Chancellor Lindley, recently elected to lead the state university, is a familiar figure about the Topake hotels and in the legislative halls. Chancellor Lindley is working in the interests of the state university and he does not believe in wearing gum shoes. He is proving to be what the Kansans call "a good mixer" and Kansas lites that kind of a man.
One night last week at a hearing in the statehouse before one of the committees on education, the chancellor was asked to appear and address the committee. While he was speaking to the committee, some of the school teachers of the state and members of the college facilities found a cigar stub, commonly called a "snipe," on one of the window ledges in the office of Miss Lizzie Wooster, state superintendent of public instruction. The hearings were held in Miss Wooster's office. Now everybody in Kansas known Miss Wooster's view on the subject is afraid and of educators who smoke. When the Chancellor had finished his address the jokers gravely caused his attention to the cigar stub.
"This 'sipo', they told him, "must have been left here by you. We are afraid it will put you 'in bad with the state superintendent."
"What makes you think it was my cigar?" asked the Chancellor
"What brand is that?" asked Mr. Lindley.
"The Chancellor," they said.
"No, it's not mine." Dr. Lindley replied seriously. "My brand is the 'New Chancelor.'"

Each school is listed and the various departments will be compared according to the answers by the students.
INDUSTRIAL COURT A
FAILURE----MORRISO
Declares that Constitutional Means Should Abolish Court
Washington, Feb. 8—Frank Morrison, secretary of the American Federation of Labor today declared that the coal strike in Pittsburgh proved the failure of the idea on which the Industrial Court is based.
"Approximately 200 miners have quit work in Kansas in face of an order not to strike," Mr. Morrison told United Press representatives on Monday. The company cannot compel men to work through the machinery of a court or any other compulsory form of arbitration. This strike demonstrates conclusively the contention of labor that concludes that government be resorted to to abolish this court.
"Leaders of labor are keeping in close touch with the Pittsburgh situation. The Industrial Court is conducting an investigation to deter workers from using the United Workers Union issued orders directing the men to quit work. This would be a violation of the court's injunction against conspiracy. If officials of the union are convicted, the union conviction, they will be open to punishment either by jail sentences, or fines, or by both."

Members of the University faculty hold important positions on this week's program of the Merchant's Short Course. In addition to Professor A. J. oyton and Prof. L. N. Flint who addressed the merchants today, together with students from the murray Ketman head of the department of design, who speaks today on "rt and Design and It's Application to business."
Miss Jessie L. Cline, of the department of home economics, speaks this afternoon on "Making a Good Customer of the Home-maker."
Prof. John Ise, of the department of economics, will speak tonight on "Economics and business in the Inflation Period."
Miss Ora L. Webb, also of the department of home economic will speak tomorrow on "Practical Tests for Textile Fabrics."
The program Monday afternoon consisted of talks by Prof. A. J. Boynton, head of the department of economics, Prof. L. N. Wint, head of the department of journalism, and G. E. Hargrove, president of Merchants Association. After each talk a general discussion ensued in which various problems of the merchants were discussed and questions asked and answered concerning them. Professor Boynton spoke on "Trade Acceptances" a comparatively new business in the transaction business between wholesale and retail establishments.
"I look for a great development in the next ten years of the 'Trade Acceptances,'" said Professor Boynton. "It will save money, time, and it will teach to lessen the friction which exceeds that of selling goods to the retail dealer, brought about mainly by a continual wringing about bad accounts and delayed shipments."
Professor Flint read a paper entitled "The Advertising Regeneration of Mr. Busyman," in which he pictured the difficulties of the average man with advertising and his绒绒性 down. Mr. Busyman, as Professor Flint described him was a grocery man in a small town. He could red advertising as a nuisance, and nearly as a matter of form, which would prevent him from it to a far better advantage doing other things which were really of minor importance. But in the end it is proven to Mr. Busyman that he could better afford to employ some one to create advertisements while he studied ad-writing, and wrote the advertisements.
"How Large is Your Trade Territory?" was the subject that Mr. Irawn spoke on. He gave a number of good illustrations and suggestions as an introduction in and surrounding a small town. He recommended that the merchants obtain a list of the subscribers to the local papers and also a list of all the people on the different Rural Routes, where they are, and how many in each family.
"Then," said Mr. Irwin, "send them circumcises that will appeal to all the members of the family, the children as well as the adults. If this method is not used, it will undo her ability to undo wimblebly induce more people to patronize your business and the result will be that the sales will increase and the trade territory made larger."
