Idle time, the habjt of laying off, on -y the part of the miners, has been found to be responsible for an evil condition. iThe coal production committee roports the state council of defense that miners simply staping away from work, without good cause, has reduce'd the working force in Indiana coal mines in the last month to 85 per cent of the force that should be constantly at work to meet the wax emergency. It is pointed out that a 'serious wrong is ^one, in the fuel emergency, .when 15 per cent of the miners fail to do the •Work that they should be doing.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMIES IX FRANCE, Dec. 28.—(By the Associated Press.)—For three days snow has been falling intermittently throughout the American .zpne, interfering with the training of the /troops and with communications. At times a .strong wind has accompanied the snowfall and many roads .are becoming almost impassable on account of the drifts. _\ serious difficulty has been experienced thus far in supplying tht^ troops in the outlying towns and districts, but it is feared the supply problem will give trouble if th£ storm continues.

ice in the trenches were caUed off for a time. The troops of a newly landed division. composed of former national guardsmen, tonight reached the towns in which they are to be billetted temporarily after inarching for two days through the storm. Notwithstanding the severe weather experience se-emed to have done them more good than harm, for the men are rapidly becoming hardened. Former guardsmen of another division carried on their work in spite of the storm, engaging in bayonet. grenade and automatic rifle practice without interruption. Some of the men had their new caps pulled down over their ears and all who had mufflers wound them around their necks. They paid no further attention to the syiow under foot or to the swirling Hakes. These troops are mostly in the lowlands. Others in higher altitudes were unable to proceed with their work as well as was desired. Troops from the southern states have been quite uncomfortable in the last few day*?, but they are becoming accustomed to the cold and snow.

WARNS PEOPLE TO IET

want to go about attending to our own business. Perhaps that is the reason we have been so slow in taking a hanl in the European bituation. "There is i*o easy road out of it. The easy road now would mean disaster later on. We must meet the situation face to face. The thing for the United States to do at this present time is to buckle right down to the task we have shouldered and%go through with it to the bitter end. This will mean a permanent peace. Unless we should go through with it now, directly after a Deace came there would be such a preparation 'for another war as the world never saw before. The people would be crushed by taxation. It is the mass of common people that is going to control this situation once they are made to understand."

The speaker dwelt upon the kaiser's offers of German peace his'elimination of indemnities the progress the Germans have made in changing the character of the peoples in those countries which Germany has crushed and what effect this would have in case of another war. He declared that promises and oaths made by the German government meant nothing, pointins out the numerous violations' that had been made by the Germans.

Germany Not Repentant.

"German autocracy is not repentant," he declared, and called attention to the peace plans that were offered some time ago while Germany's grept submarine warfare was being planned. He emphasized the fact that Germany's fighting had all been done on foreign soil—that thus far she has kept her own country intact. He urged an awakening of the 'Afnerican people to the seriousness of the situation and declared it was a time to forget self.

Charles E. McKeen, former president of the Terre Haute Automobile club, spoke briefly on "Good Roads" at Thursday night's meeting. "Our highway department has laid out 775 miles of what is known as state highway," he said. "One part of this .Tye are Ifving on. The state and national government will match every dollar we put up to build this roadway. ,}Just this last year we, have succeeded in building 75 miles."

McKeen said that a road that is now planned will take out the bad places tn the highway between here and Brazil and most of that between here and Indianapolis. He said the farmer, who had heretofore been against the good roads committee, was now with it. He «aid the farmer had come to realize that srood roads were not for autoists alone, but for the farmer who hauled over these roads.

A. E. Hazelrigg and Frank Smallwood read papers at the Thursday night meetine. and D. C. Johnson and Joseph Elder were named for papers for next Thursday's meeting.

Wives of a number of realtors were guests of the meeting."v
