L ONDON, March 11.—Joseph
Barcroft, a Cambridge

days in a hermetically sealed
glass' case, supplied with a
quantity of oxygen required by
aviators at high altitudes.
The glass case is seven feet
high and ten feet wide and fur

Barcroft spent his time doing
scientific work and sleeping.
Occasionally he took exercise,
riding a stationary bicycle af
fixed to the foot of his bed.
Although nitrogen was con
tinually introduced into his
glass chamber, the air became
more and more void of oxygen
until it finally approximated
that of 15,000 feet altitude. At
that juncture = Rarcroft began
to suffer from vomiting fits,
lost his appetite and was unable
to sleep.
When released the scientist
said he felt badly shaken up by
his experience, but gratified at
the technical results.
Relays of university under

(By International News Service.)
WASHINGTON, March 11.—Presi
dent Wilson is now studying the
final report of the coal commission
which he appointed to adjust wage
demands of the coal miners, it was
announced at the White House to-]
day. |
1t is expected that a summary of
the report will be made public with
in a day or so.
It was learned authoritatively that
the report recommends:
A 25 per cent wage increase.
# No reduction in working hours.
Employers to use the ~heck-off
system for the collection of union
dues. >
Many of the minor demands of
the workers were granted. The re
port covers several thousand words
and is framed in firm language.
TO BOOST PRICES.
Increased prices of coal to the
public are approved by the report
of the commission. The increases in
selling prices, however, should not be
more than enough to absorb the dif
ference between a 25 per cent wage
advance and the 14 per cent increase
in wages allowed by Dr. Garfield, ac
cording to the report.
John P. White, who represented the
miners on the commission, did not
sign the report. He may make a
minority report.
The wage increase recominended 18
approximately 25 per cent for all
classes of mine labor. The 14 per
cent increase granted by Dr. Gar
field is absorbed in the 25’ per cent
increase. The increases are not ret
roactive. .
MAY NOT BE ACCEPTED.
Differentials in the central com
petitive field will be submitted to a
special commission to be appointed
by the next jont conference of miners
and operators. The special commis
sion is given ‘wo years to report.
Commissioners Robinson and Peale
filed individua! reports. Commis
sioner White insisted upon the seven
hour day and a wage increase of
31.61 per cent. He made heated
charges during the closing hours of
the commission’s meeting early today,
it was learned, and threatened to go
before the President and Congress.
Unless White finally joins in the
report there is grave doubt whether
the report of the commission will be
accepted by the United Mine Work
ers. g

Food Dictator, Admiral Says, Will
Convince Them of 1917
Fas s
Conditions,
(By International News Service.)
WASHINGTON, March 11.—Admi
ral Benson, chief of naval operations
dupng the war, expressed his “sur
prise and disappointment that no
‘det’mlte plan of operation of the
combined forces of the allied naval
powers has ben taken up and decided
on long ere now,” in a cable to Ad
miral Sims at London late in Sep
tember, 1917, Admiral Sims today
told a Senate committe investigat
iing his charges against the navy de
rpartment
~ The cable was in response to rec
ommendations by Sims, that a bat
tleship force be sent to reinforce the
British grand fleet.
.Admire.l Benson pointed out to
Sims thc unwillingness of the navy
department to split our naval defense
for such a purpose, because ‘our stra
tegic situation requires keeping the
battleship force concentrated.”
Benson urged on Sims the neces
sity of arranging ‘“some definite
plan of operation, at the earliest pos
sible date, and if nothing can be
done this fall and winter, as soon as
the spring »f 1918 opens.”
FORCE SENT LATER.
Later, Sims stated, a battleship
force was sent and he paid high
tribute to its work with the British.
To prove this contention, ‘that the
allies barely escaped a peace without
victory,’ Admiral Sims asked the Sen
ate committee investigating his
charges against the navy department
to ca'l Herbert Hoover, former food
administrator.
‘Of the many men who could speak
with intimate knowledge of the situa
tion in Europe in 1917, there is one
at present in Washington who gave
me, “when I arrived in London, my
first realization of the possible de
feat of the allies in a short time'
Admiral Sims said. “He pointed out
to me then this very fact which T am
emphasizing—that is, that the ship
ping situation was such that it soon
would be impossible for the allies to
obtain the essential military supplies
and the food to keep them going un
til American effort could become ef
fective.
URGES CALL TO HOOVER.
“The one man., above all others,
who has been familiar with the
world food and shipping position in
the last five years, and who adminis
tered the food resources of this coun
try during the war, is obviously in a
position to state with authority what
the situation was in April, 1917, and
I should, therefore, like the commit
tee to call Mr. Hoover at its con
venience before 1 proceed further, in
order that there may be no doubt in
‘mind that 1 have substantiated the
‘part of my letter in which I described
the gravity of the crisis which we
‘fa,ced in 1917 and pointed out how
near to disaster the lack of action by
the department at that time brought
us.”
The chairman of the committee,
Senator Hale, Republican, of Maine,
intimated that Sims request would be
acted on in the near future.
