The Hitcheock substitute resolution
was as follows:
“Resolved by the Senate of the
United States, (the House of Rep
resentatives concurring) that the ac
tign taken by the department of
state in reference to eh pending
controversy betwen this government
and the government of Mexico ghould
be approved; and, further, that the
President of the United States be,
and, he is hereby assured of support
if in his judgment it becomes de
sirable to sever all diplomatic rela
tions now existing between this and
the government of Carranza.’
Another objection raised to the
Hitehcock resolution was that sever
ance of diplomatic relations was left
in it entirely to the President's
‘“Sudgment” as to whether such sev
emnce was “desirable”
Henry P. Fletcher, American am
bassador to Mexico, was closeted
swith the committee this afternoon
when it met to consider the Fall res
olution providing for a severance of
diplomatic relations between the Uni

for fuel for any one who can supply
wood in such lots was made Thurs
day by the State Bureau of Markets
with headquarters in Atlanta, in the
hope of relieving the «fuel situation.
The bureau’s bulletin follows:
“In every crigls which has con
fronted our nation the farmers of
America have quietly stepped into
the breach and, by their unfalling,
steadfast patriotism, have upheld the
causes of humanity.
“The coal situation is already se
rious untd the danger line. The
urban poor already suffer. | Some
plan of quick relief should be evolved
before irreparable damage is done.
One partial solution of the fuel sit
vation is wood. Many of our farmers
have wood in abundance. We would
like quick action from every reader
who can supply a carload of wood.
We can place it where it will bene
fit most.
“We do not exaggerate when we
say unless the fuel situation is
quickly relieved great suffering will
prevail,
“Write us at once, giving quantity,
variety and price f, 0. b. cars.”

Chicago F'uel Crisis
To Make 300,000 Idle
~ (By International News Service.)
CMICAGO, Dec. 4—Chicago indus
tries are preparing today to cperate
on a six and a half hour working day
basis as the result of a drastic order
issued by the Public Utilities Com
mission shutting off power, heat and
light to patrons not on the federal
priority list.
The order will result in closing
down 25 per cent of Chicago’'s 11,000
industrial plants and will make idle
upward of 800,000 workmen with an
average daily wage, loss of $1,100,000.

For Hot Struggle
(By Internationai News Service.)
WABHINGTON, Dec. 4.—Organized
labor and the law are set for a war
to the finish.
The government's action in citing
leaders of the United Mine Workers
for contempt of court in Indianapolis
has crystalized the determination of
labor leaders to fight the present coal
erisis out to a finish. Officials of the
American Federation of Labor were
preparing to offer every assistance to
the mine workers,
It is believed here that within a
week the fuel administrator will re
establish lightless nights and will
curtail the use of coal by theaters and
other places of amusement. Doctor
Garfield has indicated he would take
such steps before he would curtail
the distribution of coal to essential
industries.
An increasingly serious situation in
the production of coal, due apparently
to the tightening of the strike, is in
dicated for this week in reports from
the coal fields.
The conditiong in the mining dis
tricts are much worse than they were
a week ago when wage negotiations
were broken off. g
Evidence is accumulating through
reports from the mine district that
