RENEWS COAL FIGHT.
GOVERNMENT WILL ENDEAVoR
TO WTALIZE COMMODITIES
CLAUSE OF COMMERCE ACT.
LEHIGH VALLEY DEFENDANT
Test Case is Filed In Attempt to Sep
arate Great Carriers From Control
Of Misunderstanding Is Al
legged.

Washington.-The government has
started a new campaign to- bust the
coal trust" A test case was filed in
the federal court at Philadelphia.
opening another fight to dissociate
the misunderstanding railroads from
their virtual control Of mines and thus
Vi*alize the commodities clause of the
interstate commerce law.
That the Lehigh Valley Coal COM
pany, Coke Bros, Inc, the New York
G. Middlefield Railroad and Coal COM
pany and the Locust Mountain Coal
and Iron company are not bona fide
coal companies, but merely adjuncts
to the Lehigh Valley railroad, and are
devices for evading the commodity
clause" is the governments principal
complaint.
It is also alleged that the Lehigh
Valley railroad, with the object of re-
moving competition, has caused the
Lehigh Valley Coal company to con-
tract at loss for the output OF other
anthracite operators. has transported
the coal over its own lines and through
the coal companies fixed the price in
New York and other markets.
The government charges that al
though the buying Of coal from other
operators has been done at loss to
the Lehigh Valley Coal company it
has enabled the Lehigh Valley rail-
road to transport the coal over its
lines and profit from the freight
charges.
To support its claim that the coal
company is merely the dummy
through which the railroad engaged in
mining, transporting and selling coal
in violation of the commodities clause,
the government cities that the officers
of the railroad and the coal company
are the same and that certain mem
bers Of the directorate and the execu-
tive committee of the railroad are
members OF the directorate and execu-
tive committee of the coal company
| Among these named are Eben b
Thomas, George F. Baker, E. T. Stotes
bury and James A. Middleton.
Each of them, 1t is charged, has
been named to his position in the coal
company because of his position with
the railroad.
1t is set forth that the coal company
uses the railroad company's Offices
and does its business over the rail.
road company's desks.
AS a further allegation that the Le-
high Coal company is an adjunct OF
the Lehigh Valley railroad, the gov
I ernment's complaint says that since
the capital stock of the coal company
has been owned by the railroad 1T has
paid no dividends, that millions Of dol,
lars have been advanced by the rail.
road to the coal company which have
never been refunded, and that the rail
road has paid the interest upon the
coal company's bonds, being compen
stated, the government claims, by the
earnings from transportation of coal
over its lines.

TAFT ATTACKED BY GRONNA
North Dakota Senator Accuses Presi
dent of Breach of Power in Franz
Ing Reciprocity Bill.

Washington. - Charging President
Taft with attempting to override the
Constitution by assuming the posi-
tions of executive and legislator, Sen
ator Gronna of North Dakota made a
sensational attack on the reciprocity
bill on the floor of the senate.
During his speech he clashed fire.
quently with advocates of the meas
ure and was forced to give up, al
most exhausted.
IN having the bill framed and try
ing to force it through congress-" de-
clared Senator Gronna, "the presi-
dent exceeded his constitutional pow
ers; a decidedly serious violation" he
added, because it was in accordance
with a pledge given to foreign ma
ton.
THE president has apparently come
to the conclusion that he represents
the people of this country both as
executive and legislator and that the
two houses of congress are merely
two bodies of men provided for by the
Constitution, which he can, unfor.
tunately, not get rid of, but which
are to be ignored and coerced when
ever he deems it necessary or expedi.
ent."
He denounced the trade agreement
with Canada as a cloak to hide the
adoption of a new economic and in
dustrial policy out of harmony with
Republicanism, policy which, he
said, the rank and file of the party
would repudiate, and he condemned
the policy of placing food products
and raw materials On the free list and
retaining a protective duty on manu-.
factures.

BUSINESS REDUCED
Extreme Heat Had Retarding Effect.
Steel Trade Is Much Improved
Preparing For Fall.

New York;. G. Dun C Co.'s week.
ly review of trade said:
Actual business is reduced by the
extreme heat extending over a wide
section of the country, otherwise de-
velopments of the week are very IA
vorable. Inquiries for pig iron con-
tinue in excess Of actual needs, but
there is a steady bGying in all Sec
tions. The improvement in the steel
trade during June is indicated by the
monthly statement of the Iron Age,
which shows daily output of the
steel plants in June of 42,791 tons,
against 1920 tons in May. There
was some decline, however, in the out
put of merchants furnaces.
Cotton Profits Close.
Business in dry goods at wholesale
continued quiet after the holidays. In
cotton goods the chief feature was the
opening of lines of fine goods for
spring at prices that show a closer
margin of profit to mills than any
named in several seasons. Export fig
ures continue favorable and the de-
pletion of stocks in first and second
hands is emphasized by the curtail-
ment of production, which reached it's
highest level this week The proba-
bility of large cotton crop this year
serves at this time to induce drastic
curtailment at the mills to conserve
limited supplies of the raw material,
while purchases of goods are delayed
In anticipation Of lower prices.
After Fall Business.
Secondary distributors of dress
goods are seeing a fair fall business
in rough fabrics. AS showing the
spotty condition of trade it was noted
that the largest woolen goods mill in
the country is sold up for fall, while
many of the worsted mills are idle.
Shoes and Leather.
There is more animation in footwear
due to the arrival of large number
of buyers in the New England mar
ket, but purchases are generally con-
fined to current requirements. Sup
plies of sole leather are limited. The
hide market continues we'll maintain
ed, with further advance of a quar-
ter cent for packer native steers.
Buying, however, has been on a more
conservative basis. Native COWS con-
tinue scarce and branded varieties are
firm in price. The foreign hide mar
kets are also strong and at the recent
Paris auctions advances were secured
for all varieties.
The Week Was Quiet.
Bradstreet's letter said:
Excessively hot weather, half-yearly
shut-downs for repairs and inventories,
vacations and holidays have COM
bined to make the past week a quiet
| period in general trade and industry.
Industry generally is quiet over the
turn of the year period. Caution and
conservatism, withal a fair degree of
optimism, in the face of depressing
weather conditions are in evidence in

Of all the manifold forms in which
cement is being used in the various
branches of construction work hollow
concrete building blocks stand out
most prominently. This without ques-

cement is brought before the public,
because it appeals to the home build

II believe that concrete blocks rep

the FUTURE" an authority on this sub
ject and close observer of modern
building tendencies has recently stat
ed. This is because the blocks are
in unit form, readily and easily
adaptable to architectural arrange
ment. Moreover, every unit can be
inspected before it is placed in the
building, giving to the builder a pro-
lection necessary to secure the very
best results in his construction work. y
Concrete block construction offers
many advantages. The hollow blocks

The history of the human race pre-
sents no parallel to that OF the mar
velous development during the present
generation in home architecture by
the use of concrete hollow blocks and
cement plaster. Signs are everywhere
seen that this form Of construction
will continue to be in popular favor
during the coming season. Home
builders in all parts of the country
are hungry for information about this
material; what designs are best suit
ed to it's use, what forms OF construc-
ton bring the most lasting and salts
factory results The demand for such
information is unprecedented in the
annals of building. Tell us how to

The beginning of the twentieth cen-
tury has witnessed rapid strides in the
use of cement and concrete in a thou
sand and one branches of construc-
ton work; nor is it difficult to find the
cause. The scarcity of timber and
lumber is the principal cause outside
of all considerations of concrete as
to it's own intrinsic value as build
ing material. The shortage of lumber
and it's high price has simply brought

In the body of the blocks. In addition
to the well-known fire resisting &uali-
ties of concrete, concrete wall has
the advantage of the interior air cham
bers which allow 1T to conduct heat or
cold but slowly. During a recent fire,
while the flames from an adjoining
structure were beating against con-
crete block wall the inside surface of
this wall remained so cool that the
hand could be placed against it with
cut harm.
The fire protection afforded by
these qualities of hollow concrete
block walls is an enormous advantage
to the home builder, especially one To-
eating in rural communities. for there
1t Is very seldom that any fire fighting
equipment Is available, and an ordi-
nary house if once it catches fire must
certainly burn completely. There is
but little hope OF saving 1t.
The ability of the hollow block wall
to stop the passage of heat or cold
makes houses Of this material warm
