Indianapolis, Nov. 6.—Attorneys for the United Mine Work ers of America some time to-day will tile a motion in Federal C ourt for dissolution of the restraining order to prevent officials of the union front issuing instruction to the striking members, it was learned to-day. 'I he officials were in conference this morn ing with their attorneys, and it is understood have completed the writing of the motion. Such motions, in accordance with a court rule, must be filed two days in advance of the arguments. The hearing of the gov ernment's petition for a temporary restraining order has been set for Saturday and to-day is the last day for filing motions in the case. Washington, Nov. 6. — The gov ernment's rejection for the labor's proposal that the Injunction pro ceedings against miners be with drawn, is taken to-day as sweeping aside all hope of immediate settle ment of the strike involving more than 400,000 soft coal miners in twenty-eight states. The government's answer to the anion suggestion advanced by Sam uel Gonipers, president of the Amer ican Federation of Labor, was given by Assistant Attorney General Ames, who declared the strike In itself was a violation of law and that as long as it continued the. only place tc light it out was in court. The restraining order issued by Federal Judge Anderson at Indiana polis last week was made return able Saturday. Counsel for the min ers will go into court that day and ask for dismissal of all proceedings. One of two things will happen: The court, according to officials here, either will grant the plea of the miners or issue a permanent injunc tion, carrying with it a mandatory order to John L. Lewis, acting presi dent of the miners' organization, to call off the strike. Wants Coal For 'Homes First With colder weather over most of the country and the big increase in production, a few disquieting; re ports came from different sections where available coal stock was limit ed. The fuel administrator of lowa sounded an alarm in a telegram to Director General Mines in which be contended that the people of his state should have coal for their homes ahead of that assigned to lo comotives hauling "luxurious trains" across the continent. In some cities local authorities made their own rules for distribu tion of coal, and in a number of in stances the railroad administration released big shipments for local use. The questions of curtailment of train service and placing embargoes on freight shipments were discussed, but no reduction of service will be made until conditions reach the point where it cannot be helped. Assurances again were given by the government in reply to inquiries that every protection would be af forded union or nonunion miners willing to remain at work. Ken (ucky operators, at a conference with Dr. Garfield asked that troops be sent to that state because of threats made against working forces They were told that while this was a matter for cabinet action, if troops were needed they would be sent, u ilson would be directed to take over cool mines for one year, under a reso lution introduced yesterday by Ren resentotive Burke, Republican. Penn s.tnania. Negotiations with the mi ners committee and arrangements for satisfactory wages and working con oitions would also be conducted by the r resident under the resolution. I rice of coal produced during the! period the mines would be under ex- ' centive direction would lie held to I actual cost plus a reasonable return 1 to th? mine owners. Ten union mines in the New itiver ' West Virginia, coal fields, resumed : operations yesterday, according to re-i ports to Washington headquarters of' the operators.

Present day styles of clothes worn by churclnvomen were censured to day at the National Training Con ference of the lnterehurch World Movement of North America. "The indecent dress of some wo men in our churches makes it tre mendously hard for a young man to keep his thoughts clean and pure," declared the Rev. J. R. Crowther, of Seattle. "In public these days you can scarcely tell the difference between a street woman and a church woman." What the relation of the church toward present day industrial and social problems should be was one of the features of to-day's session of the "school" for protestant clergy men and laymen which the inter church world movement is conduct ing here.

Mitchell i Palmer in a statement issued to-day j in advance of the fair price con ference called by Governor Sproul. The Attorney General reviewed the laws and what steps the gov ernment has been able to take to bring down prices and also express ed the hope that relief from the sugar shortage would be afforded shortly as the western beet sugar and Louisiana crops would soon be on the market. In speaking about sugar Mr. Pal mer said: "We are trying to sta bilize prices through agreement with the interests concerned and to elimi nate as far as possible the inter mediary transactions which have so largely inliuonced prices in the past. Fair Price Plans The Attorney General said that in anticipation of new laws the De partment of Justice had taken up the fair price plan and that it had worked with conspicuous success in Denver and other places. Through the naming of fair price commis sioners the Federal authorities have been able to keep in touch with con ditions and to co-operate in getting results.

THURSDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 0, 1919. WOULD YOU KEEP OLD A (IE AT BAY? London, Oct. 17. Dr. Josiah Oldfleld, known _ internationally as a physician and a writer, has published a prescription for keep ing old age at bay. Recording to him it is not a question of an operation, but a , daily diet, which includes dan delion leaves, fowls' eggs, grapes, lettuce, cow's milk, watercress, honey, and salads (uncooked). "Old age," he says, "is largely caused by deposit in the blood vessels and cells of the body of waste matter. So by adopting a part fruitation diet, a man however, may become young again, because every cell in the body will be replaced by new young cells." Dr. Oldfleld considers that a normal person rightly fed should live from 90 to 105 years.

Returns from Tuesday's election compiled at the Secretary of State's office to-day from 55 of the 88 counties indicate that the results on the ratification of the Federal prohibition amend-, ment and the Crabbe prohibition en**' forcement bill will be close, with chances favoring the cirys on the ratification prohibition and the wet* on the Crabbe bill, according to Chief Statistician Johnson. The same returns ure said to in dicate defeat of the 2 3-4 per cent, beer proposal and also that to re peal the prohibition amendment.

Just how the hotel would be enlarged has not been sug- I gested, but there are two ways said I | to be under consideration—one the I corner occupied by several buildings lat Third and Strawberry and the 1 • other along Walnut street, facing l Capitol Park. ] Notwithstanding present building] costs the need of more rooms at j the Penn-Harris is so great that' | some definite action is almost err-1 I tain to be tn,kan by the owners soon, j ; is said.
