E‘ Productions of Illinois coal mines â€"‘.. during November increased approxâ€" §< imately oneâ€"hdlf million tons over the 3# record for October, as shown by the __ _ reports received by Director A. D. E Lewis, Department of Mines and â€"â€" ONE OF GREAT Menace of Dazzling Lamps Recâ€" "Something must be done, and done at once to put a stop to one of the greatest menaces that motorists have to contend with â€"namely blinding headlights," according to & safety bulletin issued by the Automobile club of Illinois. Death, injury, deâ€" struction and all forms of vehicular accidents can be attributed to glarâ€" ing headlights which thereby convert the automobile into a car of death. Pick up almost any newspaper and the results of accidents after dusk can ‘be found in a large proportion laid to the fault of the fellow with the "brights on." Not more than a week ago, a careful driver as well as a respected citizen of Chicago ran full on into a car parked along the public highway. An approaching car that glareâ€"blinded the careful driver was the direct cause of death, inâ€" jury and destruction to the parties involved. Having full possession of his powers, driving at a moderate speed, this driver had a clear vision of the road ahead untilâ€"the motorâ€" jist from the opposite direction with enough bright lights burning on his car to illuminate Soldier‘s Field bore down on him. How was he to know that there was another car parked along the road with a man and his wife standing behind trying to get a tire in place? Smash! It only took @ second, but that was plenty of time to kill two, injure three and make orphans of four innocent children. Too Many Instances This case is not an exception and is only one of thousands that would offer no resistance or difficulty in locating the causes. We have on our statute books at the present time a law requiring automobiles to be equipped with such device that will enable the operator to dim or change the focus of his headlights at will. The equipment on the ‘majority of cars is perfect in every detailâ€"but seldom does it come into actual use. How many drivers do you find that respect the rights of the other felâ€" low enough to dim their lights when another car approaches? From exâ€" perience. I would say rather fewâ€" they are in the minority. D Will You Help? Will you help us stop this? If you are among the many that practice this form of driving, won‘t you coâ€" operate with us in this drive for sane driving and tell the other fellow to do likewise? The Automobile club of Illinois asks all its members and fellow motorists to set the example of "road courtesy" by dimming their headlights every time they see a car approaching. You can help us cut down this tyâ€"rible death list by aidâ€" ing in this drive. The saving of just one life would many times over pay the owner of the car who conscienâ€" tiously thinks of the "other fellow‘s safety." Thi;”wholesome slafighterihg of innocent motorists must ceaseâ€"it can‘t possibly go on as it is. If we are going to make for a safe highâ€" way, one of the first steps taken should be that of enforcing that law on the statute books of practically every municipality in the country, that a better regard for the other fellow and night motoring might be observed. Strict enforcement of such laws can do much to minimize the death toll of this contributing menâ€" The number of miners employed inâ€" creased during the same period apâ€" :mhly 1,000, but the average of days worked remained at sixteen. A total of 57,597 miners were employed in the 176 mines in dperation in the state during the monith. The total tonnage~reported is 5,360,578 tons.

M I "Russia is warring with the rest of the world," he declared, "not with guns but words. England is receivâ€" ing most attention from the Rusâ€" sian propagandist, but let us not be too sure of our position. All we need is a period of hard times with sevâ€" eral hundred thousand ‘men out of work and the heavy barrage starts. Prosperity is our present protection. Try ‘England First "England has been made vulnerâ€" able to Soviet propaganda by much unemployment, large national debts, heavy taxes and loss of world trade. I{ Russia can bring her downi, to pick cff the remaining capitalistic coanâ€" tries of Europe would be simple. "When the general strike in Engâ€" land failed to turn into a revolution, Russia next concentrated on China, with the result still somewhat in doubt. Were the foreign powers exâ€" pelled from China, the world would next see Russia driving at India. Were Great Britain driven from Inâ€" dia, the Russians believe the end would be in sight." "Soviet propaganda, however, seems doomed to failure in England," Professor Dennis assured his listenâ€" ers, "British character being opposed to the communistic program." _ Slow Improvement Turning his attention to conditions in Russia, Professor Dennis showed that though few countries have recâ€" ognized the Soviet governmentâ€"and that fewer have made her loansâ€" Russia is making a slow economic reâ€" covery. Though improving, they are bad, judged by American standards. Vast Experiment "Not in history has there been so vast a social, political, and economic experiment. It is staggering in its scope and character. It will not be defeated by outside armies, outside hostility, by the cold shoulder of world bankers. If it is defeated it will be because Russian character is weak, because dishonesty in public office pays better than honesty, beâ€" cause communist principles run counâ€" ter to human instincts. Just at presâ€" ent human weaknesses seems bigger than the selfish desires of individual men. Will this continue? We shall see. It is asking much of human naâ€" ture, and of Russian human nature particularly." Drawing upon his observations made in â€" Russia â€" and | conclusions reached last year at Geneva where he spent eleven months stidying inâ€" ternational affairs, Prof. Dennis asâ€" serted that "mere selfâ€"interest would suggest the wisdom of assisting Engâ€" land in her struggle with the Comâ€" munists," and added: "With England gone Bolshevik, we would occupy a somewbat unpleasant position in the world." in the rising generationsâ€"there are many reasons for skepticismâ€"then they build a different world, then they can go back to Communism from which they have been forced~to move so far to the right in order to survive. ‘"One thing now going on in Rusâ€" sia on a large scale is important," he continued, "they are teaching the children that to make a profit from the labor of another human being is wrong.

That is more than twice as much as any state ever has built in one year. from Chicago to Kankakee the roads will be 40 feet wide.
