UNIONIOWN, Pa., Aug. 9.—(A. P.)—Lingerlng trouble spots in the Pennsylvania mine strike cleared up today, bringing peace to the embat- tled soft coal fields and sending thousands of men back to the pits.

Tris last of ms Fayette County miners to remain on strlke-OOO workers in the H. O. Prick Com- pany's Colonial No. 4 mine at Grind- stone-resumed work after Federal and State agencies interceded to smooth over fresh grievances in a dispute concerning Checkwelghmen.

At the same time, striking miners of the Pittsburgh terminal Coal Cor- poration, also at odds with the op- erations over the question of select.- ing Checkweighmen, voted to return to the mines tomorrow.

Another group, employed by the Pittsburgh Coal Company, largest producer in the world, met tonight to determine the date for their rc- sumptiou of work.

“Some of the leading church- men of the world were present at the Conference, such as Professors Patterson and Curtis of Edin- bsaough, and Cairns of Aberdeen, Carnegie Simpson of London, Dr. Richards, Philadelphia and Dr. MacNauger of Pittsburg. '

As regards his impressions of the British Isles, Dr. Ramsay stated:

“At the present time the ship- building and’ liner industries of Northern Ireland are very badly down, but in spite of that there is a great deal of hopefulness and courage, and the Irish demonstrat- ed their charactcrhstic hospitality. They are s. marvellously kind peo- ple. I enjoyed travelling through the country, which was fresh and green. One would say that. since their separation from the Irish Free Stain the people have taken s. new lease on life as typified by the fine newpariiament building at Btmmont near Belfast, a gift to Ulster of the Imperial Govern- mcinb.

"m Great Britain I found a. remarkable national revival. By no means are the British a degener- ate race. Since the war there seems to have been a Renaissance of the nation, both in England and in Scotland, and probably at no time in the history ofthese countries was there greater virility, courage and hopsfulness.

‘The cities and towns are great- cr than ever and now contain ful- 1y ninety per cent. of the whole population. London has grown to be a world in itself. The motor car and other means of rapid transport have led to the decentraliziirg of the population into adjacent. coun- ties. The city is constantly in-

tcludlng new boroughs and so ex-

tsnding itself beyond its former limits, and now occupies an area. equivalent to about twenty miles square. Agriculture is disappoint- ingly backward and Parliament at the present time is facing the problem of revivin! it.

Demands Interview

have of late years been concerned largely with problems of mainten- ance, new construction methods, taxation for highways, departmental administration, and safety for all users of the roads, whether awheel or afoot. The keynote of this year's convention will be the advisability and urgency of maintaining and further developing Canada's high- way transportation facilities in the manner which will best promote and expedite economic recovery. Morning and afternoon sessions on the first two days of the conven- tion will be devoted to lectures by experts on the subjects allotted to them, and there will be not more than two lectures scheduled for each session, thus giving ample time for full discussion by the technical and lay delegates in attendance. The closing day will be taken up with a. motor tour of representative sec- tions of highway in Wentworth and the adjacent counties, giving the,

various types of pavement, bridges and other auxiliary works, in use or under construction, under the guid- ance of provincial engineers.

The Association's annual business meeting and election of officers will be held at the conclusion of the Wednesday afternoon session. A concert and dance to be held on Tuesday evening and the annual dinner on Wednesday evening will be among the recreational features of the convention, and a special programme of entertainment is be- ing arranged for the ladies of the delegates.

delegates an opportunity of viewing,

lsaming of this sensationiu ge. velopment, Ambassador Welles, who ihas conducted mediation confer- ences with government and opposi- 5 Lion chiefs here for several weeks. ‘demanded an immediate interview ,with Orestes Ferrara, Cuban Sec- retary of State, who returned today ,nfter a long absence at the London Economic Conference.

Under the. plan of settlement sponsored by the American Am. bassador and approved by the heads of various political groups, President Machado would retire 1mm i115 110st by taking g leave of absence and would appoint another Secretary of Stats in place cf his lllllliorter, Senor Ierrara.

Upon the withdrawal of Michado and Ferrara the newly designed Secretary of State, the Joint choice of OPPOSing political factions, would assume office as acting President.

The Machado decree did not on its face answer the question of ‘whether the President would quit ~ his office or not.

A Dllflolllt Situation

I Calling attention to the strike isituation which it said created "a ‘difficult situation in all the as- pects of civil life," thodecree as- serted: _

"Therefore, given the circum- stances set forth, the interest of the public peace demands the adoption of extraordinary means for the maintaining of order, for which the reconciliation procedure adopted by the government have not been suf- ficient; ncr have the means at the disposal of the civil authorities suf- ficed to prevent such disturbances."

The decree declaring a. stats of war put into force the old Spanish law of public order, placing civil- ians under the jurisdiction of mil- itary courts for arraignment on charges of offenses against the public order or the state.

Military commanders will be ap- - ‘ ‘ ’ i0 ‘ civil authorities in all provinces. In official circles it was indicated that these com- manders probably would be the of- ficers now commanding the army detachments stationed in each pro- vincial capital, ~

Decline Information

Officials at military headquarters declined to give information re- Eflrding the decree or its signifi- canoe.

Meanwhile, the island's strike, which has upset completely all Cuba's normal activities, continued "nbmkfln. in the face of an an-

lmcement last night by the Pres- ident that concessions had been made to labor organizations which would lead to resumption of work today,

Havana streets were bars again today of street cars, orrmlbuses and m"- Diiiflifltes of the various un- ions refused to order a return to work until the constitutional guar- antees. suspended Monday by Con- Bress for 30 days, were restored.

“Furthermore, through the ener- getic activity of Col. Wilfred Bove), president of the Canadian Handi- crafts Guild, a renewed interest int this work has been aroused in the Province and a branch of the guild has been established which, it is felt, will do much to develop the home‘ industries of the Island."

The Star writer explains that at, the invitation of the Prince Edwardi Island Department of Education the McGill University Library School undertook to give a. library course for the first time in Canada east of Montreal, arid that the registration included students from Nova Scotia and New Brunswick as well as Prince Edward Island. A feature of this course was a series of evening lec- tures by Dr. Lomer and Col. Bovey, and Mrs. M. D. Carter, Miss Nora Bateson, Miss M. V. Higgins and Miss Marjorie Parker, of the Libr- ary School staff, also took part in the instruction.

"The class of 37 students was the largest," said Dr. Lomer, "that the McGill University Library School ever has registered in any school course, and it was interesting to note that among the. students were members of the stafl or Prince of Wales College and of religious ord-

ers.”
