Pittsburgh, June 12.—Although no definite move has been made by either union officials or mine opera- tors to end the coal strike, many idle miners are in desperate straits and there,is no attempt among the oper- ators to conceal the fact that they are desirous of bringing hoatilities to a close. The operators have renewed their efforts to have a conference with union leaders for a state agree- ment. Miners threaten to return to work if not provided with money, food and clothing for themselves and their families. Virtually an ultimatum has been served on union leaders, June 15 being named in some instances and July 1 in others. Wives and chil- dren of striking miners and even miners themselves have appeared in various towns of the Connersville re- gion begging food and clothing. BEGS MOTHER TO GET PARDON.

LADY ASTOR S T0 QUIT HERSPEAKING That Is When She:Visits U..8. Again She:Says : Now York, Juna 1§—The next time Lady Astor visits America, sghe in- tends to make no speéches. That was what she confided to reporters, before malling for England. Few publia speakers, or workers of any sort, are ever keyed to the high nervous tenston with which Lady As. tor seams charged when addressing an audienoe, Her nervousness may not have beenyso apparent to listenipg crowds at her '40.0dd public speaking appearances insthis ecountry during April and the first three weeks of May. But if one sat near her, thejeye quickly observed that she incessantly wrung her hands behind her back and ran her fingers over and under her Jeweled bracelets, thes muscles af her arms and shoulders quivering: from nervousness. Speaks Well Somehow ‘the strain never seemed to affect the clarity of her speaking tones. In fact, her talks to crowds, no matter what their size, were in a manner friendly and informal. Al ways she was breaking away from; her prepared notes:to start a sentenc with the loose, conversational ‘“new’f or “‘well.” But when the speech was'done, the first woman member' of the house eof commons was fagged/ out and intenye- ly nervous. That, too, seemed newer to ruffie her smooth, smiling demean- or, nor did her:expreasion reveal fa- tigue. Lord Astor knowsihow Migh-strung the Jady commener really was, and he made it his job to keep ther from talking too muchito friends:just be- fore or after a speech. “Naney, Nancy,” he weuld'call in warning whenever she pitched straight from a speech into chats to which she seem- ed to give just as much/energy. Reporters seated immedimtely inathe rear of the speaker's dais, when Lsdy Astor gave her farewell address mo- ticed that her ashoulders suddenly deepened to a pink flush as she got up to talk. Then, whén her message had gone over, and thers remained only the two clesing:paragraphs, the tension was relieved and the blush faded from her skin. BRAINS OF RUSSIA ARE SLOWLY'DYING Lack of Supplies and Food Stops: Attempts of Soviets toEducate Lendon, June 12.—The Soviet gov- ernment is really trying to further ed- ucation in Russia, hut because of the lack of supplies and above all the lack of food, ‘the brains of Russia are dying at present,” says E. T. Col. ton, of Montclair, N. J., who has just Cigarette it's toasted. This one exira process gives a rare and delightiul quality 5, i P @ returnad from Moscow, where he was fthe Young Men's Christian Amsocla- ‘tion representative on the staff of the American Relief Administration. Mr. Colton’s work was confined to inves- tigating conditions among professors end students with a view to affording them A. R. A. relief. This was sub- sequently given. ' More Students Now. ““There are more bona fide students in Russia now than there were before the war,” Mr. Colton said. “There are many more women students than men even in the mining schools. They are short of all supplies from text books to laboratory instruments. Moreover the professors, most of whom are on the verge of starvation,™. had no energy left to do research or creattve work. Consequently Rus- sian education is not what it was.” Feeding Program. It was Mr. Colton who drew.up. the feeding program for from 7,500 to 10,000 Russian students which the A. R. A. initiated in Moscow, Petrograd and Kazan. It is confined to the two higher classes of university students, a great number of whom are mature men and women, because /they aban- doned their studies in 1914 to go into war or work in sgome form. “We chose these,” Mr. Colton ex- plained, “because they will get soonest into the productive life of Russia. 'We couldn’t possibly feed all, with our re- sources,” Classes at Night. One curious thing about the Rus- sian ‘universities 15 that most of them now function at night, for a great percentage of the students-work dur- ing the day in order to earn some money. “There have been many deaths among professors and stu- dents,” Mr Colton declared. ‘“‘There will probably pe many more, because there can be no question but that as a class they are suffering greatly. For the professors to do creative work un- der present conditions is out of the question. The miracle is that they can work at all, and unless help comes to them quickly, the best brains of Runssia will die for lack of food.” famine Frank E.
