The anthracite operators attached 'two conditions to their acceptance of arbitration yesterday, one that a separate commission examine wage scales in that industry and the oth- er that the commission be required to submit a decision by Aug. 10, agree- ing in the meantime to pay the wage rate of 'March 31 as suggested in the President's proposal. They asked that the proposed separate commission be required to set up a permanent meth- ed by which wages and working con- ditions would be adjusted "automatic- ally" in the future and proposed toy assure a non-partisan 'adjudication, that the commission be composed of one miner, one operator and three representatives of the public. Object to J roposal The bituminous (operators' objec- tions were said to attack the Presi- dent's proposal to put the men back at wage scales of 1920-22, when non- union mines, with 200,000 employes,' had been steadily working all through 1921 at wages practically identical with those of 1917. This not only will force disturbances of operation in non-union territory, in the view of the operators, but will leave them with high cost coal to sell in competition with lower cost non-union coal. HUE PARLEYFILS proximity to the Clements' libraryI would endanger that building. The location of the class rooms that must replace those to be destroyed has not been learned. The finished roof will be put on the new library as soon as the cinder fill is set and dry. Steel beams are now being placed' in. the second story of the Dental building and it is expected that by fall it will be ready for use. Desks, cabinets and as much of the equip- inent as possible is being made in the building and grounds shops. A contract has been given the H. G. Christman and company for an addi- tion to the storehouse and shops building. MOTOR TRANSPORT MEN WANT IUR150ICTION OF UTILITIES COMMISSION (By Associated Press) Detrojt, July 13.-The motor truck transport business in Michigan, cred- ited with an increase of about 100 per cent within the last 12 months, is to make its influence felt at the next session of the state legislature, when an effort will be made to obtain leg- islation more favorable to the trade; it is announced by F. L. Henk of Detroit, secretary of the National Team and Motor Truck Owners' as- sociation. According to Mr. Henk, Michigan now is a network of motor truck routes that extend between the chief "If the religion of the moral com- mends itself to the adult thinking mind, then the religion of the proph- ets can lay the claim to becoming the religion of the future," summarized Dr. H. Slonimsky yesterday in the last of a series of three lectures he has been giving on the Prophetic Re- ligion before students attending the Summer session. His topic was "The Permanent Significance of the' Mes- sianic Ideal." The speaker went on to say that two ideas will force the moral person to religious assumptions: the idea of conservation 'of values, the feeling that this great value of the mind must not die, that is, must go on, and see- ondly that of peace, the prophetic thought that history is distinctly fraught with a purpose, with a goal, which goal is that the people shall beat their swords into plowshares. In tracing the philosophical basis of religion, Dr. Slonimsky pointed out that there is no distinct emotion of religion, but that emotions can be- come religious if they are strong enough. Chance actions, he said, force humans to deep religious thought, as do also disappointments and the very nature of things. He declared, the average person does need this chance to bring him to thoughts about religion. "But the deeper spiritual nature will not wait for the accidents of life," he continued. "He will see that the ac- SUMMER STUDENTS TO EXPLORE FALLS Making the longest trip of all the excursions, Summer session students will leave at 2:05 o'clock today for Niagara Falls. The trip is in charge of Prof. I. D. Scott of the geology de- partment, who has visited the Falls more than 10 times and has made the most minute study of the geological history of the region. The tourists will not only be able to visit the points of scenic interest, under the supervision of one most familiar with the ground, but they will also be in- structed in the scientific phases of the great waterfall and the Gorge. Arriving at Niagara Saturday, the party will spend the afternoon tour- ing the Great Gorge. On Sunday the excursionists will explore Goat Is- land and the Cve of the Winds. On the decks of the "Maid of the Mist" the party will experience the thrill of almost touching the foot of the American Falls. The Niagara Falls excursion party will leave at 2:05 o'clock this after- noon on a special Detroit, Jackson and Chicago car which may be boarded either at the interurban station or at the corner of State and Packard streets. The poster notlees, to the effect that the party will leave via the Michigan Central, are incorrect. M x-f MYTEHRY-COFFIN CAUSES DEITLERA DEATH RUMOR PROVISIONALS WARN CITIZENS AGAINST RESISTING AUTHORITY Dublin, July 1]3.-Eamonn de Vale- ra again has been reported dead, but this rumor is not credited by any of the Free State officials. Limerick was the seat of this ru- mor. According to the report, a mys- terious coffin, draped with the Irish Republican colors and under guard of irregular troops, was lying in state in a church. The lid of the coffin had been screwed down and the corpse could not be seen. The irregulars claim the capture of two Free State generals, Hayes and Connelly, in County Limerick. The Irish provisional government has issued a manifesto warning the people in the following words: "We've armed groups, who are tak- ing upon themselves the responsibil- ity for making war against the Irish people, permitted to remain under arms to continue their unnatural ac- tivities, this country would be faced with economic ruin and famine as well as the return of the British. Regulars assert the situation in the South is satisfactory. However, the irregulars claim to have won a series of successes north of Cork which gives. them control of part of the Counties of Kerry, Wexford, Cork and Mayo. A dispatch from Belfast quoted P. J. Little, the Belfast "press agent" of the- Republicans, as saying that the people of Cork have accepted the re- public which wts proclaimed there by rebels on Tuesday. Wire communication has been cut betw'een this city and Co rk. The strict isolation of Cork is causing consternation here. Up to noon not even a travieler had arrived from Cork to bring any news of events in that part of Ireland.

SIONISTS I The party will leave Ann Ar- bor at 2:05 via the D. J. and. C. electric road. It has been incor- rectly stated previously, that the Le rair u6ULrLU CL11" 1 lr matter of freight carrying. Several questions of vital intere t to the truckmen are scheduled to come before the attention of the law makers at Lansing next winter, in the opinon of Mr. Henk, chief of which will be the proposal to place the truck operators under jurisdic- tion of the public utilities commis- sion, the state body that fixes rail- road and interurban rates. To.Ask Study of Problems The truckmen, it is announced, will not be averse to such control provided, a close study is made of the opera- tors' problems by the legislature. It is pointed out. that rates on freight handled by truck should be neither too high nor too low, and that an ec- onomic. study should be made to de- termine upon regulaions that would serve the best interests of operators and shippers alike. The trucking interests, Mr. Henk announces, also are to seek miodifica- tion of the 1917 law that limits the loads of trucks in wet weather. Under the law the road commissioners in each county have the authority to pass upon the condition of the roadst and state what-roads may be carried in each county. The truck owners want this authority placed in the hands of the state highway depart- ment so that uniform regulations may be set.up. They also desire that the cement roads be exempt from the wet weather regulations. At present all classes of roads are considered equally during wet weather. AIL L I E S REFUSE GERMAN DEMANDS Paris, July 13.--The reparations commission today notified the German government in reply to the demand for a moratorium for repartions pay- ments, that it would give a definite answer only when it has in hand the full report of the committee on guar- antees which went to Berlin a short time ago to supervise reforms to natural order. In conclusion Dr. Slonimsky sr "The great idea must be an idea of world peace. Values must be con- served. Death and defeat of the good are only apparent." This last idea, h' said, is a necessary supplement to the moral doctrine without which) the moralist would have to despair. PRISONERS BATTLE POLICE IN RIOT (By Associated Press) Detroit.
