WASHINGTON. June 2O-Pointing to
the fact that the country Is threatened by
nationwide coal famine the Federal
Trade Commission today urged. after an
investigation just completed, that the
Government take over all coal transporta-
tion facilities. land and water. and operate
them on Government account: that coal pro.
ducers be paid their fun cost Of production
plus a uniform profit per ton and that
transportation agencies be pooled and
operated under direction Of the President
all such means being operated as a unit.
the Government to pay fair compensation
based on normal profits and the cost OF
upkeep
THE RECOMMENDATIONS
The recommendations are as follows:
First, that the production and distri-
button of coal and coke be conducted
through a pool in the hands Of a Gov
crnment agency; that the producers Of
various grades of fuel be paid their full
cost of production, plus n uniform profit
per ton with due allowance for quality
Of product and efficiency of service) and
Second that the transportation agencies
of the United States, both rail and water,
be similarly pooled and operated on Gov
eminent account, under the direction Of
the President. and that all such means
of transportation be operated as n unit,
the owning corporations being paid a
just and fair compensation which would
cover normal net profit, upkeep and bet
terments.
ARMY EXEMPTION FOR MINERS
In addition to those main recommends
tions, the commission advised against re-
Cruiting miners for the army, pointing out
that uncertain labor conditions have already
tended to disorganIze the industry at n
critical time.
Concerning the situation the commission
says:
THE commission believes that the coal
industry is paralyzng the industries of the
country. and that the coal industry itself
Is paralyzed by the failure of transporta-
ton"
4,mong the serious aspects OF the situa-
tion the commission points to the following
facts:
That normal stocks OF fuel which
should be built up during the summer
months, particularly in the Northwest
are not being built up, with the result
that next winter will see coal famine in
that region.
That the barge service which carries
coal for New England has been diverted
and no longer is carrying coal. with
threatened coal shortage for New England
factories.
That water carriers on the Great Lakes
which should be carrying coal West are
returning empty because Of the failure of
rail transportation.
That mine labor Is disorganzed, owing
TO irregularlty of employment, due to
irregular car supply
That spectators are getting undue
prices for coal and finally that the situ-
alton is not being remedied by the volun-
tary arrangement undertaken by the
Council of National Defense. nor is the
situation likely to be remeded by any
plan adopted'voluntarily by the railroads.
The commission points to the experience
of all the nations engaged in war, and rec
ommends the adoption Of the remedies they
have had to adopt.

The value of helping desirable in
dustry to locate in town by exempting
it from taxation for a term Of years
is wildly shown by the Queen City
Cotton Company in Burlington. About
Is years ago the city of Burlington
voted to exempt the mill property of
this company from taxation if it would
construct cotton mill of certain ca
pacity. The company purchased real
estate that had been listed at less than
$4,000 which made a reduction in its
grand list of that amount. Today the
company is the heaviest taxpayer in
the city of Burlington, it paying taxes
on $553,174 this year. In addition to
this property owned by the company
private parties have built new houses
in the vicinity of the mill that are
assessed at from $4,000 to 100000.
So the city now has in place of the
$4,000 property of Is years ago, over
100000 worth of taxable property.
The company gives employment 10
several hundred people who spend
their income in the city It certainly
pays to make some concessions to a
worthy industry seeking location in
your town.
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1917-06-20


worth of cotton and wooden goods. and
$4,000. 600 worth of food per month.
There would have to be $4,000 draft
mules and $4,000 wagons. Much more
would be needed in fuel tentage. cook
ing facilities, medicines, hospital
equipment and such things
It will be seen that such an army
cannot be equipped for months and
transportation could not be secured at
amoment's notice. The fact remains,
however, that 100000 American SOL
diers are needed in France today, and
if they could be sent there in fighting
trim it would save thousands of lives
later. This government certainly has
a tremendous task before it, and the
expeditions and proper performance Of
it will be a tremendous accomplish
ment. Much work has been authorized
but it is impossible to speedily send
100000 men to France equipped so
they could be of real assistance to our
allies there.
