posal that the government assume con

States, even to the extent of fixing

commission yesterday in a report to

The commission in its report makes
the charge that producers aud brokers
are exaeting exorbitant charges for
coal, aud declares that the great short
age Of the fuel Is due to lack of trans
portation facilities.
The Nation, il is declared here, is
facing q serious coal famine that
threatens to tie mp industry and have
far reaching effects The coal famine,
1t is conceded, is not due to any short
age Of coal but entirely TO other causes,
chiefly 70 lack OF transportation. The
federal trade commission declares that
anthracite coal has been and Is being
mined in quantities sufficient to war

The Weird Decorations
What aroused my curiosity was
the fantastic way in which they were
painted. One had butterflies paint
ed all over it in white and black on
pink background. Another that
struck me as strange, indeed, was
painted with black cats chasing each
other on a green background. They
were in all kinds of attitudes, one
sitting on the tail licking his chops,
another chasing it's tail along the
fuselage (bodYl, while on the top of
the wings were two more as big as
life resting peacefully on their
launches. / say this struck me as
strange because aviatorS as a rule
are very superstitious, especially
after smashing up few times.
And everyone knows how Il black
cat is regarded. L sure had an en-
joyable time looking over these var
ied-colored planes. There must have
been some gamblers among the
bunch, because spades and diamonds
were much in evidence in the de-
signing. One was all dolled up in
the Italian colors, while another
drew my eye by its checkerboard
and plaid effect of red, white. black
and green. The Turkish emblem
was beautifully represented by a
white crescent and star on sky
blue background. You cannot real
ize what n pretty effect this made.
But these machines which were such
works of art l soon discovered were
not given to pupils to experiment
with. Probably considered them too
beautiful to have smeared over the
landscape, and l can't say L blame
them, because they were too beauu-
full to bust l know L had the but

all over it. 1t sure was a Sam Hill
of a looking bus, reminding me of
Sarah's sunbonnet, or was it Maud
Miller's? The moniteurs finally tired
of waiting for the clouds to clear off
and decided on new stunt.
Above the Clouds
They wished to send the pupil
through the clouds, have him do his
vrille above the clouds, and send Il
moniteur up to watch him. This
was a decidedly dangerous stunt, as
everyone realized, for n vrille is sim
ply a machine falling out of control,
spinning like top, and if one did
not come out of his vrille before he
hit the clouds things might go bad

missed falling in the marsh running
along the field, and If he hadn't
smashed, he would have ran into
me, for he was headed directly my
way.
Test In Cloud Climbing
THE last stunt consisted in climb
ing to 1900 meters, and handling
the plane in such way as to stop
the propeller, and then by a sudden
