6 ROTARIANSHEAR ABOUT EUROPE James H. Sanders Gives Inter esting Talk on What He Found in Trip Abroad James H. Sanders, who recently went to Europe to study the potato wart disease for the State govern ment and the United States govern ment, addressing a meeting of the Harrisburg Rotary Club at luncheon in the Penn-Harris to-day, gave it as his opinion that the United States will do well to cultivate public opinion in Europe, establish news papers there and teach the people the extent, resources and general conditions of America and American life. Mr. Sanders visited all of the warring countries and he says that except in France the people are rap idly forgeting their war-time hatred for Germans and are cultivating new trade relations with Germany, which needs only raw materials to regain its manufacturing stride in a short time. There is no love for America : in some of these countries, he says. , the people being jealous of our pros perity and grossly ignorant of Amer ica and everything American. Mr. Sanders illustrated his talk with lantern slides descriptive of his trip i and of conditions in the lands he i visited. Walter Shaffer, the aviator, addressed the club in the interests ! of an aviation field for Harrisburg. ! Next week the club will have a ! "surprise luncheon." The committee j in charge will not announce a single thing concerning the affair, but say j it will be one of the biggest things j of the whole year. 1 TasflMVrs" ■work while you sleep!

Mr. Lewis saitf that he had not re ceived any message from Washing ton, that he had been traveling all day. He left Washington at 6 o'clock Saturday evening to return to his home at Springfield which he left October 6. He added that the meet ing of the national executive board board of the United Mine Workers to convene at Indianapolis at 10 o'clock Wednesday morning, was called before President Wilson's statement was made public. The gathering had been called primar ily to formulate details of the strike. Blames Operators When asked to make a statement on the right of the miners to strike November 1. ins the fade of the critical conditions, he said: "The coal operators have not of fered a single constructive sugges tion designed to avert this catas trophe. All through the negotiations at Buffalo, later at Philadelphia and still later at Washington, the miners waited iibvain for any counter pro posal to be submitted by the opera tors. During the conference with Secretary Wilson at Washington we said many times that we were will ing to re-enter negotiations with toal operators without reservation to conclude the malting of an agree ment forthwith. The offer that wo made was repeatedly declined. The responsibility for the stoppage of work in the bituminous coal districts must necessarily lie with the coal operators." Mr. Lewis was asked what ans wer he had to make to the conten "Cascarets" never gripe, sicken or keep you anxious all next day like Calomel, Salts, Otl or violent Pills.

"Our contract read that it was to continue in effect during the period until the war ended and not to ex ceed March 31, 1920," he replied. "The war is over. Our soldiers have returned. All the government war agencies are disbanded. A Ger man vessel of war is even now head ng for New York, upon a peace mis sion. In substance, form and real ity, the war is ended, and our con tract has expired. Men Cannot Live "Well, now we are willing to stand on the merit of our proposal. This 60 per cent, increase is subject to negotiations, as are all demands of the United coal miners, but they will not even negotiate. "During the past twelve months the miners of the United States have averaged only $75 a month, or SBOO for the entire period. The men have worked on an average of less than three days a week since the armistice was signed. Men with fami lies cannot live on this amount. Chil dren in mining camps are under nourished.* This is a matter of life and death to the women and chil dren of the miners' families as well as it is to the public. Charity be gins at home. "Our aim is to make a shorter working period and to distribute the work over more days during the year. The miners in England have a seven-hour day, from bank to bank, which means from the time they leave the surface of the ground until they get back. Miners in the United States have an eight-hour day, but that doesn't count until they get to the face of the coal. They are in reality working nine and a half hours a day."
