HOLMES OFFERS PLAN
FOR MARKETING COAL

Although the few days that DR.. Holmes
spent In Denver were merely an incident
OF a Journey that takes him 10 Alaska
on an important mission, they brought 10
the front a question that promises soon TO
attract national attention. II successful
movement that has been started with
his approval VIII eliminate the middle
men in the coal trade and place the dis
tribution OF coal throughout the United
States In the hands OF one great syndi-
cate. To DR. Holmes monopoly has no
terrors. In an address he made at the
Missouri School OF Mines he said:
Il see no objection to any combination
eral properties for operative purposes /
even commend for earnest consideration
In this country the German system by
which nearly all OF the coal produced In
that country is sold under single syndl-
cate dealing direct with the purchaser
and consumer without the aid (and with
out the added cost OF the middleman and
his advertising agencies
Coal mine operators have taken kindly
to the plan. For some years the profits
OF coal production have been narrow and
IL has been possible to mine only what
could be taken out at the least expense.
What has been left represents waste. To
prevent this waste OF material by cut;
ting down the expense OF distribution and
thus increasing the possible profits OF
production is the purpose OF the plan ad-
vocated by Dr.. Holmes The matter has
been brought 20 the attention OF the
American Mining congress, which main
tains headquarters in Denver, and II Is
probable that at the next meeting Of the
an attempt will be made 70 reorganiZe the
coal trade In way that will not encoun-
ter the opposition OF the federal govern
ment.
