Mich., June 15.- President Henry Schuil of the Michi gan division of the Izaak Walton Teague said today that James Oliver Curwood, writer and conservationist, who resigned last week from the league, never had paid dues fo any chapter of the organization in Mich- igan. Curwoed originally was a member of the national executive commitiee formed by former President Dilg, Schull said, but when his name came up for election to the board at the last natfonal convention in Chicago the Michigan delegation requested that it be withdrawn and Curwood wan not elected. The truth, according to Schull, is that “"Curwood was dropped from the league two months before he broke l‘nl" print with his belated resigna- | ton." | JUDGE HITS PLAY JURY SYSTEM IN NEW YORK Too Much Meddling of Quasi-Pub- le Bodies in Moral Issues.

BRITAINBUYS COAL ABROAD N STRIKE Baldwin Says Longer Work- ing Day Will Be Needed in English Mines. By the Amsociated Presa. LONDON, .June 16 The govern ment has been obliged 1o place orders abroad for maintenance of essential supplies of coal, Premier Baldwin sald in opening the debate on the coal strike in the House of Commons today. He would make no attempt, he sald, to apportion the blame for the coal stoppage, a folly which must leave every one worse off than at the beginning. but would address himself to finding a way to escape and a return to the common sense which alone would save the situation. Mr. Baldwin said difficulty arose from the fact that, for the perlod immediately preceding 1924, the pros- perity of the coa! trade rested on an artificial basis. The only relief that could come from within the industry lay in measures of reorganization and diminution of labor costs, as the re- searches of the Roya! Coal Commis. sion had shown. Sees Longer Working Day. The government. he announced, | had come quite definitely to the con: clusion that a return to the longer working day was essential. This was greeted by loud and angry cries of No™ from the opposition. The premier said he had been in. | fluenced in his decision first and fore. most by the interests of the men. The government proposed to leave the seven-hour act on the statute hooks. but to introduce lezislation enabling an extra hou worked for a period of time. would not pre. scribe longer hours. but would permit negotiations on a basis offering the of a far better wages than that existing. Mr. Baldwin said he had received a positive assurance from the owner on the bha of an eight-hour n coal fields producing approxi mately half the country’s output, the men could be offered continuance of the existing wages for July, !and September. Reduction Would Be Small. Over more than half the remainder of the country, the reduciion. if any. would be materialiv less than the 10 per cent drop. which was at present requested by the owners. The new wage could he guaranteed during July, August and September. During this period the government would proceed with = reorganization legislation. and ihe owners take all possible steps 1o make effec tive such of the roval commission’s proposals as might be necessary to leave no ground for doubt that the men would get all that was due to i them.

SENATE COMMITTEE 0.KS S400.000FUND Increases by $100,000 Pro- posed Appropriation for Coiumbia Hospital. The Senate District committes yes terday afternoon disposed of a con- siderable part of its pending business | by indorsing the following local meas ures o provide for a nurses’ home al the Columbia Hospital; to authorize the abolition of the few railroad grade crossings still remaining in the District: to provide for the annual instead of the blennial assessment of real eslate, and to create a commia- sion to parole prisoners in the Dis triet. Afrer Senator Phippe of Colorado and Rev. Dr. Abram Simon had ex- plained the urgent need for better ac commodations for the nurses at Co lumbia Hospital. the committea voted 1o recommend $400,000 for the nurses’ home instead of $300,000. This ix in accordance with the original plan of providing separate rooms for the nurses. Senator Phipps told the committee that the nurses of that hospital are quartered in a frame building that appears to be véry old and that is consequently a fire hazard, in addition to the general inadequacy of the bullding. Favor Annual Assessment. On the question of the annual as sessment of real estate, Maj. Daniel J. Donovan. District auditor, told the committee it was not necessary 1o pass a separate bill hecauss the House District committee has already provided for annual assessments asan amendment to another bill which the Senate has already passed. All that is nacessary, therefore. is for the Sen ate to agree to the House amendment when the other measures in guestton pass the House. Maj. Donovan tes fied that the additional cost of mak ing assessments annually will ba only $17.820, whereas the District will in- crease its tax revenus several hun. dred thousand dollars a year by such an arrangement. W. 1. Swanton of the Citizens’ Ad visory Councll also indorsed the an nual assessment plan. The parole commission bill was ex- plained by ils author, Senator y. Democral, of Rhode lsiand, and was approved by the committee after ac cepling several minor changes sug gested by the Commissioners. ‘The proposed commission would be com- posed of the District attorney, the corporation counsel and the superin- tendent of penal institutions. | The railroad grade crossing bill | merelv provides the legislative au thority for the construction of via- ducts at_three Jocations where grade | crossings atill axist, the appropria. | tions for which would be obtained later.
