mems compensation law can be traced
the cause for slight increase In the
cost of coal to the state OF Iowa this
year. Like every other consumer Of
coal the state must stand It's share OF
this burden.
AS to why and how the state has
been able to make a considerable saw
ing of coal bought at one institution
over what is paid at another and what
seems IL be an unusually low price,
difference in switching rates Is wholly
responsible
Some time ago Candidate EoschroolS,
on the bull moose ticket for something
or other, commenced writing 10 the
papers telling how the state is being
swindled by the coat operators, and
citing that "A lower rate is being Sc
cured for coal at f.ldora than at Mar
shalltown, figured on the tonnage basis
This is a part of the complaint about
Iowa operators not being able to bid
low enough To get all the Goa! for
Iowa institutions despite that in 1919
they sold the state only $4,000 tons
and this year they sold the state $4,000
tons
The cost Of the coal at the two places
this year Is jus; . cents a ton over that
of last Year. In letter to the board
of control the successful bidder en-
plains this
In our bids for this year, 1914. we
Just added cents per ton more to
each grade of coal at both points above
what we were paid for the same Goals
as delivered your institutions during
1913 for this reason, the workmens
compensation law effective July |, 1914
increased the cost of production of
coal at various mines from to IL
cents a ton. in order that they carry in
surance. and we figured that this 5
cents per ton was very small addition
compared with prices where delivering
coal at such Institutions. which was
added To the price we were delivering
our Goals during the year 1918
Now the price at MaNhalltown
should be lower than that at E,ldora
on account Of distance, but the bull
moose candidate has insisted 1t should
be very much lower. Regarding this.
the bidder shows that Il Is entirely due

an allowance for this switching charge.

The department also issued state
ment comparing the first eight months
of the calendar year with the cores
ponding period last year as to imports
from different countries There was
an increase of s26.196,590 from Argen

s1S.2l1 from Japan, of $1S.593.245 from

In the eight months the importations
from Canada increased from SIS. 1861
to sos 59O0S5: but our exports to Cam
ada at the same time fell off from
$2S2. 9sS.O99 to s21?.96O.3l7. This repre-
sents normal change due wholly to
the tariff as trade with Canada could
not have been affected by the war very
much.
These figures may serve to explain
why Iowa bankers are scurrying
around to get gold to ship to Europe
10 pay for these things we have bought
abroad. They also show that it is
not lack of foreign trade but failure Of
collect tariff on the same that makes
the deficit for which "war taxes" are
to be levied.
