SENT TO SENATE

House Adopts Measure, 214 to 61 Upper House Assures Early Consideration. BUT ONE CHANGE MADE Approve Amendment Made by Indiana Solon Senate De- 1 bates Two Hours on Bill. ! WASHINGTON, Aug. 31. (By A.J P.) The administration bill for; control and distribution of coal dup-j ing the mining and transportation) emergency was passed today ny thehou.se. 214 to 1. and sent -to thej senate with assurance of early consideration. Only one change was made In the measure as originally framed, an amendment by Rep. Sanders, republican, Indiana, providing that the life of the law should end Jan. 1, 1924, or a few weeks after the first regular eession of the next congress, being passed 122 to 77. In the senate, as soon as the soldiers bonus bill had been disposed of, attention va.s turned to coal legislation, the Borah substitute for the house bill passed last week creating a fact-finding commission being taken up. Two hours of debate, however, showed the Impassibility of action on the measure today and It went over for further consideration tomorow. The big fight of the day in the house was in the section of the control and distribution measure which erave the president the right, after issuance of a presidential proclamation declaring the present emer gency no longer in existence to proclaim the existence of another such emergency without asking leave of congress. The action was voted out in committee of tho whole- 85 to 65. bat when the bill finally completed was put before the house proper. Chairman Winslow of the interstate commerce committee in charge of It, demanded and obtained a record vote, and the action was retained 148 to 124. t Dcfmt WIiinIow Motion. Pep. Ilayburn, Texas, democratic member of the Interstate commerce committee, offered the motion to strike It out and was supported by Chairman Madden of- the appropriations committee. Rep. Graham, republican Pennsylvania, and some leaders of both parties. Previously Mr. Winslow had sought to amend the provision so as to give congress the right to say If an emergency prevailed in the coal mining and railroad world, but his motion to this effect was defeated through votes of members who wer confident the entire action would go out. Mr. Rayburn's motion to re-commit, for the purpose of eliminating the clause "to prevent extortion in prices charged for coal and other fuel and promote the general welfare." was rejected without a record vote. Three republicans from West Virginia. Goodykoontz. Woodyard and Rosenbloom, oppoed the bill. Mr. Goodykoontz declaring that in tho house debate operators had been "casMgated" while no strong voice was lifted against profiteering retailen. Asserting that the measure would not afford relief, he told the house the people had asked for bread and congress had given them a stone. FIRM STAND TAKEN BY COAL OPERATORS Say Only "Public" Would Cause Them to Pay Old Scale Beyond April. PHILADELPHIA. Pa., Aug. 31. (By A. P.) Only a "public mandate" would Impel the anthracite operators to pay the miners the old wage scale beyond next April said a ta'ement Issued ton!ght by the general policies committee of the mine owners after an all-day conference in this city. They will conform their action to such a mandate, 5ald the statement. but no other reason would Impel them to enter Into an agreement which would "continue for longer than the present emergency coal pricrs to which emphatic objection has already been made. The operators met to consider the suggestions made to miners and operators by United States Sens. Pepper and Reed, of Pennsylvania, in Washington last Tuesday. The suggestions have not been made public by either side. The miner also met here today and it wa.s reported from trustworthy sources they would favorably consider modifications in their Ia.t demand If the operators also made concessions. When the miners adjourned their conference It was ald hey would await the action of the employers. The operators announced they will hold another meeting on Saturday and that in the meantime thej will te enabled to canvass the equation to obtain, If possible, the views of others a to conditions which would be fair to all parties concerned.

Rockefeller, who.se marriage is anticipated shortly, i.- herewith revealed by International News Service for the first time. This story, pieced together today from bita of Information furnished by intimate friend, shows that Mathilde fell deeply in love with the handsome SwLs when only 16 yeara old.

Await Mother's Consent. In tho meantime. Major Oeer and his betrothed have again met and are understood to be living In a secluded and Isolated hotel, awaiting word from Mrs. McCormick the mother permitting the marriage. Mathilde came to Switzerland from ParLs accompanied by a maid and chaperone and ha.s been very happy since ner arrival. She has studiously avoided newspaper reporters but her wicih wls expressed to a chum in thee words: "All I want Is to be let ?lone and not bothered. My movements and conversations are of no interest to amy one." Miss McCormick at 16 was what one acquaintance described a too "grown up for her' age." She had an alert mind and it was evident that she was bored with Swiss hotel life. She desired fun and the game that all girls like. There seemed to be two Mathildes an American and a Swiss Mathilde rolled into one. The Swies Mathilde was a sober young person whose view of marriage nd love was typically European. The American Mathilde possessed all.the Impulsiveness of the country of her birth. "When I want a thing. I go and get It," Mathilde told a friend. rnders.toHl Herelf." Mathilde listened to her mother who was then deeply engaged in ftudy under the famous Prof. Jung, learning the ecrets of psycho analysis e.nd read her mother's books. Mathilde boasted to friends that "ehe understood herself." "I have my art," she said. Mathilde wanted to learn to ride. She liked outdoor life and riding seemed to be the be: way of satisfying this longing. Mrs. McCormick wae at first opposed. But, being a follower of the Freudian school, .he feared to "create a complex" so finally decided to allow her daughter to have her way. Here enters Major Oser, former army officer, hamisome and dashing. From her fashionable hotel on the fhore of the lake Mathilde walked-dally icro5.s the civer sihl and into the Mullerftrase where the riding academy was located.

Clark was taken into custody this afternoon. . He is the first person caught In tho net of Investigation thrown out in tho Herrin massacre and is charged with having slain M. Iv. McDowell, crippled superinndent of the Lester Strip mine, near which the massacre occurred. Clark appears to be well educated. For some timt he has been president of the local miners' organization at Weaver, 111., and check weighman at the Old Ben Coal company's mine : No. 20. He spe-nds the off -mining season farming at Goreville. He is the father of five minor children and is about .15 vears old. - - - The sale ofa mowing machine for one dollar anl a half and the sale of other farm impliments at equally low prices caused county officials to become suspicious that Clark contemplated leaving the vicinity and a result the- indictment against him was hastened.

missionaries ui Red Blooded Men CHICAGO, Aug. 31.' (By U. P. Tho "wild excesses,"' of American glrle are driving the country's redblooded young men to seek perilous fields for missionary work. Young men in droves are looking for Jobs that will pay them $30 a month, with no expenses, to get away fro mthe "free talking, fre thinking, free drinking" type of girls. Dr. Paul Rader, president of the Christian Missionary Alliance, and noted evangelist in an Interview with the United Press Thursday, told of the above circumstances in explaining why many college men are going into .missionary work. "They are disgusted with the American standards of living and with the. flappers' standards in particular," said the Rev. Rader. "We have had at least 4 00 young men apply at our missionary school at Nyack-on-the-Hudson in New Y'ork for the most perilous'service within the last year. They are all virile, red-blooded college graduates the best specimens of American manhood." Rev. Rader said the idealism of young men for girls has been killed by flapperism. "They prefer anything to livir.R with the American flapper," aid Rev. Rade. "We have lö applicants for every job we can fill." TRADE COMMISSION ASSAILS PROPOSED NEW STEEL MERGER Commissioner Van Fleet, Former Local Man, Dissents from Decision. WASHINGTON. Aug. 31. (By A. P. ) The federal trade commission today issued a formal complaint charging that the proposed merger : of the Midvale. Republic and Inland Steel companies was in violation ot the law in that it constituted an "unfair method of competition." The commission's decision was exactly the reverse of that reached by the department of Justic e which recently informed congress that the proposed combination was not in contravention of either the Webb, Clayton or the Sherman anti-trust laws, but was in line with previous action of the commission in issuing a complaint against the Bethlehem-Lacka-anna merger, which merger, too, was declared by the attorney general to be as free of "unfair trade practices" as the proposed Midvale-Republic-Inland combination. In its complaint the commission named as respondents the Midvale Steel and Ordinance company of Philadelphia; the Republic Iron and Steel company of New York City, and the Inland Steel company of Chicago, and allowed 30 days in which to file answers upon which, it was explained, will be determined the issues "to be tried out In formal manner." The complaint declare-d that the (Continued on Page Two.) RELIEYE GERMANY OF 1922 PAYMENTS Reparations Commission Defers Decision on Moratorium Question, However. PARIS. Aug. 31. CBy A. P.) The reparations commission has relieved Germany of the necessity of making any further cash payments in reparations for the remainder of 1922, but defers its decision on the question of a moratorium until radical reforms In Germany's finances are carried out. Theee Include the balancing of her budget, reduction of Germany's foreign obligations, currency reform and the Issue of foreign and internal loans. In giving Its decision the reparations commission takes into account the fact that the "German state has lost Its credit and the mark has depreciated continuously." I Announcement of the commission's action was made by .Sir John Bradbury thui afternoon. The decision was immediately communicated to German delegates and the various governments by telephone. It Is understood that Premier LloydGeorge personally approved the settlement by telephone this afternoon. The decision came as a surprise In some circles where it wan expected that M. Dubois, representing IYance. would vote against any solution other than one complying with the original demands of Premier Polncare. As accepted the settlement constitutes a modified form of the Belgian compromise proposal, and Belgium is given the honor of having brought about the last minute agreement when a break in the commission seemed Inevitable. Premier Poincare gave his approval upon condition that Germany furnish a "gold deposit eufficlent to gnar&ntee the deferred payments involved. The threatened breach In the Franco-British relations has thus been averted by the French premier, who was only prevailed upon to withdraw hUi objection to the corn promise after it became certain that Independent action by France would be interpreted by Great Britain as a virtual tearing up cf the treaty f VersaiHta.
