Va., Feb. 2.—Five thousand men, women and children are living in tents and improvised shacks In the West Virginia moun- tains, on @ food ration that costs 82% cents a week. They are the striking coal miners and their families. As part of the long warfare be- tween the coal companies and the union mine workers, approximately 1500 fami!les have been evicted from thelr homes this winter, In the re- gion surrounding Charleston, the state capital, It was on December 16 that the sheriff and his deputies appeared in this little mining town of Mammoth. They went from one “company house” to another setting the scant furnishings out in the road. The evictions were by court order. To shelter the miners and their wives and children from the snows and chill mountain winds, union headquarters at Charleston rushed tents to the Kanawha River valley. Food Every Two Weeks Food for the shivering strikers and their broods comes once every two weeks by truck from Charleston The cost per person is 82% cents a week, and {n a majority of instances this is the entire food supply bf these families. Small children are not consiered “persons."" “The men can't lands,” explained Mrs. Frank God: dard, mother of seven youngsters, “because the lands belong to the coal companies and they are patrol- led by guards and by. state troopers.” Mrs. Goddard {s a typical striker's wife. She had just moved with her family from one of the tents to a ‘ttle abandoned Baptist church, which {ts shared by another family of seven Here is a two-weeks' ration for the Goddard family—a famfy of nine: Eight pounds of salt pork, bacon or canned meats. Eight pounds of cornmeal or oat: meal, Twenty-four pounds of flour. Elght to ten pounds of beans. Four pounds of sugar. Two pounds of lard. Two pounds of coffee, a half pound of baking soda and a hand- ful of salt and pepper, That is about 7% ounces of food Per day per person, counting the lard and everything. Three Babies Die Three babies died of pneumonia after the evictions. Makeshift ‘bun: galows,” small shacks for two fam- ilies each, have been built by the union, but many of the families still live in tents, five, six and seven to a tent. . “We just eat bread and coffee for breakfast generally," said Mrs, God- dard, “and some days that's all we have. Sometimes the children get a dish of oatmeal once a day and eat bread the other meals. The older children get beans. “We have to nurse the bables as long as we can, because it's so hard to get cows’ milk for them.” The present strike fo'lawed the re- fusal of the mine operators to abide by the scale agreed upon by “‘clowed shop" companies and the United Mine Workers in the central com. Petitive field. Open shop operators in this field offer to pay the lower 1917 scale, stating that it 1s im- possible for them to operate under the current Jacksonville agreement. via cote French Catholics Adopt Protest On Religious Strife ST.

FRANK GODDARD, WIFE OF A STRIKING MINER, AND ONE OF HER SEV- ¥ CHILDREN, Strict Economy Plan Pushed By Coolidge President Insists on Saving of Pennies; Bureau Heads Must Acquiesce in Scheme or “Walk the Plank” By ROBERT T. SMALL (Copyright, 1925 , Casper Tribune) WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.—President Coolidge has every government official in Washington watching the pennies, It is the first time that an economy wave in the government has been taken in earnest. Everybody knows by now that there are to be at least four years more of the Coolidge administration and they know that each one of those years, each month in fact, is to bring a watchfulness which will bode no good for the man who falls to co- operate in the plan of cutting down expenses. The economy wave has struck everywhere except at the capitol where, on the DerRocratic side of both senate and house there is skepticism and a charge of politics. It is difficult for Washington to take a prolonged seige of economy seriously. There have been inter- mittent waves in the past. The order has gone forth many times to cut down expenses, to pare est!- mat and to make the budget bal- ance on the right side of ‘the ledger. - Washington has been tolerant of the various moves. It has been felt that the president urging the vari- ous moves was interested in a more or less academ'c manner. With Mr. Coolidge, it is differen’ He has been reared in the atmos phere of thrift and economy. He has been taught to know the value of the penny. The effort he is mak Ing to cut down expenses is no passing whim. He may be cog. nizant of the fact that governmental economy is a good move to make politically in times of high’ taxes, but there are plenty of the pres. political enemies who know n their hearts that economy in of.

AB theee wow wie IK tures, he is setting the example which he expects not only officials but the American people themselves to follow. For the president has fn mind a wider program than mere govern. mental thrift. He would like for every household to go upon a budget basis, He would like for ery man, y family, not only to live within its income but to save a large per- centage of the weekly or monthly earnings, The president believes in pros- perity. He wants everybody to share it. But to his mind, the only sort of lasting prosperity is based upon thrift and making the greatest use of one's money. He does not belleve that @ prosperity based upon wild extravagance and debt can be -ther permanent or helpful to the sas; through Fairbury, Hebron, Grand Island, connecting with the road from Council Bluffs through Omaha, Fremont and Columbus, thence through Kearney, Platte, Lewellen, Bayard and Scotts bluff in the state of thence through Torrington, F Laramie, Douglas, Casper, Alcov Independence Rock, § Marbleton, Snyder Valley in the state of Wyoming thence through Montpelier, Soda -| Springs, Pocatello, American Burley, Twin Falls, Buhl, Glenn's Ferry, Mountain Home, _Bolse, Nampa, Caldwell, thence as a divided trail via Fayette, Idaho; and via UNDER THE CAPITOL DOME (Continued from Page One) and Frankfort in the state of Kan- Parma, Idaho, and Ontar! to Weiser, in the state and thence through Baker, LaGrande, tila, and along through the Dalles, Hood Portland, Astoria, and Seaside, in the state of Oregon; thence through Vancouver and on to Olympia, in the state of Washington.

Automobiles and Assessors. There is an automobile bill float- {ng about trying to find a legisla- tive sponsor, It may and may not be successful. It is a bill cooked} up by the county assessors, for what purpose, nobody knows, unless it {s to disarrange the present ex- cellent and convenient system in force. It is a drastic and unequit- able measure. It would transfer the Issuance of licenses from the secretary of state's office, and create twenty-three issuing agencies, one {n each county. The bill is an in- volved and complicated one, in that it bring: essors, county clerks, the commission and pos sibly county and state au-| t 8 in regulatory capacities. An analysis of the tax feature of the bill, alone, is sufficient to con: demn it, as the following table pre. pared by the secretary of state's office will show: Pro- posed Tax Factory Present Make Cost ‘Tax Yord ing = Tour- ---$ 380 $ 7.50 $ 8.00 Touring -. 1,295 25.00 8.00 Chrysler Tour- i ing -~... 1,895 27.50 8.00 Chrysler Imp.

Surely their business ts not to draft and lobby for the pas sage of laws, These annual conventions of as: sessors and commissioners cost the payers of the state some 33,590. seven thousand dollars for the two year period for which appropriations are made. Seven thousand dollars is not a great sum when a fair return on the investment is secured.
