CAMPUS FOUNTAIN
AWAITS ITS BASE'
Due to the fact that the stone base
has not yet been received, consider-
able delay has resulted in placing the
bronze memorial drinking fountain,
dedicated to former Mayor Hamilton
of Ann Arbor.
The necessary masonry work was
done this summer and a new piece of
side walk put in on the campus at the
corner of State street and North Uni-
versity to accommodate the memorial.
As soon as the piece of stone for the
base is received, the fountain will be
set up.

Ownership, Is Said
(By Associated Press)
Washington, Oct. 22.-While com-
mittees representing miners and ope-
rators meeting in a final effort to
avert the strike of half a million soft
coal miners set for Nov. 1, were on
the verge tonight of parting company
for good, Secretag of Labor Wilson
held them tgethe' over night at least
with a, wage Increase proposal that
ignored union demands for a 30 hour
week.
There was every assurance that the
operators would accept it and every
indication that it would be rejected
bodily by the .miners.
Will Meet Separately
When the joint conference adjourn-
ed until 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon?
it was with the understanding that
the two groups .would meet then andi
make formal answer to the proposal,
after separate consideration. Refusal1
of theminers to accept will bring the
conference- to a close and force gov-?
ernment officias- to resort to other
means to prevent the closing of the
,mines.
Secretary Wilson's offer, which pre-{
vents actual disruption of the pro-
ceeding proposed that wages be in-
creased at the expiration of the
present contract in an amount equal
to the difference between increases int
wages received by mine workers since
July, 1914, and the increase in the
cost of living since that date, that the
strike order be withdrawn and that
the miners continue-at work pending
negotiations on the new scale.
Railway Men Serve Notice
Washington, Oct. 22.-Railroad em-
playes are prepared for a finish fightj
with the railroad administration for
increased wages, time agd a half
overtime and improved working con-
ditions before the government sur-
renders the roads to private control.
Unmistakable notice to this effect has
been served by Timothy Shea of the
firemen appearing before the board of
railway wages and working condi-
tions.

1020' HOP NOT BANNED.
BY AFFIRS COMITTEE
When questioned as to the authen-
ticity of the rumors .whic have been
current on the campus to the effect
that there would be no J-Hop this
year, Prof. Louis A. Strauss, of the
committee on student affairs, stated,
that such a rumor was without basis
from his offfce. ]e said that so far as
4e gew the jnir class could hold
their annual j-0p if they so desired.
Therefore, uless conditions unfore-

seen by, or unknown to, the committee.
on student affairs arise, the J-Hop will
be held as susual. The junior engin-
eers will elect the chairman of the
committee, since the lits had the hon-
or last year.
