WIZARD BREEDER CREATES
GIANT FRUITS, HUGE HEN
Richard Diener Finds Secret
of Nature
SAN FRANCISCO.-—ln little mor§
than three years Richard Diener, of
Kentfield, Cal., has tripled tne size
of half a dozen flowers.
Made six bushels of wheat grow
where one grew before.
Developed perfect and blightless
tomatoes to a weight of three ,
pounds—
Grown white beans or r>lrd’s-egg |
size—
Increased the size of potatoes to ■
such an extent that a single tuber j
will feed a family of fifteen -- i
sons— I
And created a giant ten-pound
White Leghorn rooster, wnose pro
geny may lay eggs that would
wreck any actor’s career.
Sounds like a page from Gulli
ver’s travels, but it is strictly true |
and attested by reliable authorities.
Diener promises to become one of
the foremost figures in flower and
plant transmutation of his time. He
is a short, stocky man of forty-six
and began experimenting with plants
when a lad of fourteen in the Hartz
mountains.
At seventeen he began to notice
that certain plants increased in size
through crossing. It required fif
teen years for him to master the
process.
Meantime he emigrated to Eng
land, where he practiced horticul
ture for several years, then moved
to Costa Rica, from which point he
exported orchids to all parts of the
world. In 1904 he came to America.
Always he was at work crossing
different varieties of flowers, hy
bridizing species and “tearing up
strains,’ ’he he describes it. He met
with many failures and had numer
ous disheartening experiences. Even
after he had practically mastered
the system of making everything
larger through hybridizing even
chickens—he found himself sudden
ly without means to prosecute his
experiences and, in desperation, ap
pealed to Congressman William Kent,
of California, who financed his pres
ent enterprise.
Since 1915 Diener astonish
ed the world by his demonstrations
on eight acres of soil so alkaline
that it was considered useless.
Here, during the ea„y years of
the war, he perfected his marvel
ous “Liberty Wheat”—planting eight
een pounds of seed to the acre in
stead of the usual sixty pounds—and
reaping a yield of 150 bushels per
acre as against the twenty-five or
Great French Ace
Gets Into Trouble
By Daring Stunts
PARIS.—(By the “ Associated
Press.) —Lieutenant Nungesser, sec
ond to Fonck only among the
French air fighters in the number
of German machines downed dur
ing the war, is shortly to make his
’debut in newspaper work. He has
been officially credited with bring
ing down 31 German airplanes.
His new colleagues hope his de
but will not have the same result
as did the beginning of his air
career. After obtaining his commis
sion Nungesser was ordered to re
port at a flying field near Nancy.
Arriving in sight of the field, Nun
gesser began executing many loop-1
the-loops, upside down stunts, slid-1
ing on the wings, and all the aero- I
batics known and unknown to fly-!
ing men.
Landing at last, his superior offi- 1
cer sajd to him sternly: “Green!
one, acrobatics are all right in |
their place but we shall have to i
see you perform them before the
Germans.”
Nungesser asked his mechanic to
fill his gasoline tank and half an
hour later he was off to the Ger- i
man lines. Arriving over the
trenches he repeated his perform-'
ance, in full view; of his comrades!
and also of the officer in charge. '
“There you are ” Nungesser said I
to the colonel. “It is done.”
“Fifteen days in the brig,” said
the colonel.

War - Built Vessels
Idle in Seattle
SEATTLE, Wash.—A gray fleet
of forty-eight war-built, uncom

idly at their moorings in Lake
Union, near : >.e heart of Seattle.
The boats, some of them barely
more than hulls, are owned by the
United States shipping board, and
are worth $12,000,000, it has been
estimated. Most of them are ready
to x'lveive their engines.
“Ships that didn’t get a chance,”
they have been called, as the war
which rushed them onto the ways

“Shimmy Highwayman”
Is Latest Hold-uo Man
PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—The “shim
my highwayman” is the latest ar
rival in Philadelphia.
Joseph Gottschalk was standing at
Fourth and Pine streets, when a
man approached him.
“Can you jazz?” asked the strang
er. Gottschalk replied that he could.
“Let’s see you do a few steps,”
said the stranger, drawing a revol
vel. Gottschalk hesitated, but catch
ing a glimpse of the weapon, decided
to comp! y.
“Now,” said the footpad, “let’s see
you do the shimmy. And be sure not
to stop jigging your aims.”
Gottschalk proceeded to shake like
a bowl of jelly, while the robber
went through his clothes and took
his watch and chain and wallet con
taining $27.
“Keep on doing that,” said the
bandit as he backed away, still cov
ering Gottschalk with his revolver.
“If I see you stop before I get out
of sight I'm going to take a shot
at you.” •
It was five minutes later when
Gottschalk fell exhausted to the side-
I walk. A policeman picked him up

least, in his poultry yard struts a
Leghorn rooster weighing nearly ten
pounds—more than twice the normal

Diener began his experiments with
flowers. He produced carnations
eight inches in diameter, gladiolas of
nine Inches and his petunias waxed,
so large that the florists became
frightened and refused to handle
them.
Diener says it is all done by scien
tific crossing. It requires two gen

ful scientific selection to develop
the big flowers and plants. The
exact process he declines to divulge
at present—not because he wishes
to keep it secret, but because he re

He has offered the United States

Statement oj
President on
Coal Strike
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25. —Th<
president’s statement of the coa
situation follows:
On September 23, 1919, the
convention of the United Mine
Workers of America at Cleve
land, Ohio, adopted a proposal
declaring that all contracts in
the bituminous fields shall be
declared as having automati
cally expired November 1, 1919,
and making various demands
including a 60 per cent increase
in -wages and the adoption of
a six-hour day and a five day
week, and providing that, in
the event a satisfactory wage
agreement should not be se
cured for the central competi
tive fields before November 1,
1919 the national officials
should be authorized and in
structed to call a general strike
of all bituminous miners and
mine workers ‘throughout the
United States, effective Novem
ber 1, 1919.
Pursuant to these instruc
tions the officers of the organ
ization have issued a call to
make the strike effective No
vember 1. This is one of the
gravest steps ever proposed in
this country, affecting the eco
nomic welfare and the domestic
health of the people.
War Still a Fact
It would involve the shutting
down of countless industries and
the throwing out of employ
ment of a large part of the
workers of the country. It
would involve stopping the oper
ations of railroads, electric light
and gas plants, street railway
lines and other public utilities
and the shipping to and from
this country, thus preventing our
giving aid to the allied countries
with supplies which they so se
riously need.
The country is confronted
with this strike sat a time when
the war itself is still a fact,
when the world is still in sus
pense after negotiations for
peace, when our troops are still
being transported and when their
means of transport is in urgent
need of fuel.
From whatever angle the sub
ject may be viewed, it is a fact
that such a strike in such cim
cumStances would be the most
far-reaching plan ever presented
in this country to limit the facil
ities of production and distribu
tion of the necessities of life and
thus indirectly to restrict the
production and distribution of all
the necessaries of life.
Under these circumstances it is
not only unjustifiable, it is un
lawful.
All Interests Affected
It is proposed to abrogate an
agreement as to wages which
was made with the sanction of
the United States Fuel Admin
istration and which was to run
during the continuance of the
war, but no tbeyond April 1 ,
1920.
The strike is proposed at a
time when the government is
making the most earnest efforts
to reduce the cost of living and
has appealed with success to oth
er classes of workers to post
pone similar disputes until a
reasonable opportunity has been
afforded for dealing with the
cost of living.
It is recognized that the strike
would practically shut off the
country’s supply of its principal
fuel at a time when interfer
ence with that supply is calculat
ed to create a disastrous fuel
famine.
All interests would be affect
ed alike by a strike of this char
acter, and Its victims must be
not the rich only, but the poor
and the needy as well—those
least able to provide in advance
a fuel supply for domestic use.
Action Without Vote
The action proposed has ap
parently been taken without
any vote upon the specific prop
osition by the individual mem
bers of the United Mine Work
ers of America throughout the
United States, an almost unprec
edented proceeding. I cannot,
believe that any right of any
American workers needs for its
protection the taking of this
extraordinary step, and I am
constitutes a fundamental at
tack which is wrong both moral
ly and legally, upon the rights
of society and upon the welfare
of our country.
I feel convinced that indi
vidual members of the United
Mine Workers tvould not vote,
upon full consideration, in favor
of such a strike under these
conditions.
When a movement reaches the
point where it appears to in
volve practically the entire pro
ductive capacity of the coun
try with respect to one of the
most vital necessities of daily
domestic and industrial life
and when the movement is as
serted in the circumstances 1
have stated, and at a time
and in a manner calculated to
involve the maximum of dan
ger to the public welfare in
this critical hour of our coun
try’s life, the public interest
becomes the paramount consid
eration.
In these circumstances I
solemnly request both the na
tional and the local officers and
also the individual members of
the United Mine Workers of
America to recall all orders
looking to a strike on Novem
ber 1, and to take whatever
steps may be necessary to pre
vent any stoppage of worl*
Timo of Plain Speaking
It is time for plain speaking.
These matters with which we
now deal, touch not only the wel
fare of a class, but vitally con
cern the well-being, the comfort
and the very life of all the peo
pie. I feel it my duty in the
public interest to declare that
any attempt to carry out the pur
poses of this strike and thus to
paralyze the industry of the
country with the consequent suf
fering and distress of all our
people, must be considered a
grave moral and legal wrong
against the government and the
people of the United States. I
can do nothing less than to say
that the law will be enforced,
and means will be found to pro
tect the interests of the nation
in any emergency that may arise
out of this unhappy business.
I express no opinion on the
merits of the controversy. 1
have already suggested a plan
xby which a settlement may be
reached, and I hold myself in
readiness at the request of either
or both sides to appoint at once
a tribunal to investigate all the
facts with a view to aiding in the
earliest possible orderly settle
ment of the questions at issue
between the coal operators and
the coal miners to the end that
the just rights, not only to those
interests, but also of the general
public, may be fully pi-otected.

LEGAL ACTION IN
FAIRRUBN CASE I
WAITS ON AUDIT:
All further legal action in the
Fairburn bank case has been held
up temporarily until the audit of
the books of the burned bank is
completed by W. O. Martin & com
pany, and the auditors make their |
report to State Bank Examiner W
J Speer.
The hearing on *. permanent peti
tion for a receiver for property of
Mrs. Catherine Queen Bradstreet
and William B. Green, was post
poned Saturday until the books are
audited. The commitment hearings
of Green, Mrs. Bradstreet, Clarence
Bradstreet and ths chauffeur, Rob
ert Ellison, are scheduled for Mon
day before Justice of the Peace
Homer McDaniel, in Fairburn.
However, attorneys for both sides
already have agreed to postpone the
hearing and it is understood that
Justice McDaniel will merely go
through the formality of calling the
case Monday morning, and then
postponing it. The date now set is
next Thursday, but unless the
books are audited by’ that time it
will be postponed again.
In the meantime, Mrs. Bradstreet
and Green are the only ones of
the four out on bond. Bradstreet is
in the tower, where he is visited
almost daily by Mrs. Bradstreet,
who is staying with her people at
Panthersville. Green, staying at his
home in Fairburn, makes frequent
trips to Atlanta to consult with his
attorneys. Ellison is in jail at
Fairburn.
The auditors are having ft diffi
cult time reconstructing the books
and tracing and checking all funds,
because so much valuable data was
burned. It is understood, however,
that by next Thursday the audit
may be finished.
