Shortage of
Coal BecOm-
ing Serious

AS frequently happens about this
time of year the usual coal shortage
hobs up to brighten the housekeeper.
A little different tack is being
taken at this time, however. We
are told that there is a Shortage of
help at the mines" and that the pro
duction of coal is less than half the
normal output
The statement may be correct
That is a matter of opinion. and
the assertion will generally be swal-
lowed with grain of salt.
There has been so much specula-
ton in everything under t5-s sun
since America has gone profit-crazy
because of high war prices that no
industry is free from raid by the
moneygrabbing contingent and as
rule the people at large have to
pay. People on an average are get
ting no more money for their labors
or energies. but they are paying en-
ormous prices for living and other
commodities, and the burden is grow
ing very heavy.
1t is just as reasonable to assume
that the coal combinations are en-
deavoring to reap immense profit
from a little speculation, or short
age, as it is to figure that an ammu-
alton house, or a typewriter concern
will turn down local trade for a war
order.
On the face of things the coal COM
panies claim that the metalliferous
mines are making so much money
that the demand for labor has auto
matically drawn the men away from
the coal mines
This may be partly fact
But it remains that there has been
a coal shortage at this time of the
year for a decade or more, and this
year the alleged shortage is augment
ed by threats of great increase in
price
The situation has every earmark
of rank speculation az the expense
Of the public, and the game appears
to be operated by the coal mining
mpanies-Pocatello Tribune.

EUROPEAN INDUSTRY ACTIVE

The political campaign is thing
of the past, but the problems of the
United States are things of the pres
ent and future. In one of his speeches
It Shadow Lawn, President Wilson
ridiculed the claim that European
pations are engaged in manufacturing
great body of products which will
be dumped on this country after the
war. Within twenty-four hours after
that statement was made, the sub
marine freightef Deutschland" APP
peared in New London, Connecticut,
with s1O.OOO;OOO worth of goods di-
rect from Germany. When Germany
can send us goods under such cir
cumstances as these, what will she
not do when the war is over and her
ships are free to traverse the ocean
without let or hindrance either from
foreign countries or from protective
tariff laws of the United States?
