EXTORTIONATE
PROFITS TAKEN
Peabody Agreement Said
To Be Unfair To The
Consumers
(By Associated Press.)

Washington, Aug. 11.-Charges
that bituminous coal dealers are ex-
acting extortionate profits from con-
sumers under the socalled Peabody
agreement, were made yesterday be-
fore the federal trade commission by
Clifford Thorne. appearing in behalf
Of various public utilities and a ma
tional municipal organization. The
trade commission gave the hearing
in connection with it's investigation
of coal prices.
The entire Peabody agreement,
entered into by the operators and
Chairman Peabody of the Defense
Councils coal committee. was de-
clared by Mr.. ThOrne to be unfair to
the consumer. Coal now SDeing sold
under it at from $2.75 to $3.50 a ton.
he said, can be produced at slightly
more than 81 a ton.r AS the best
means of dealing with the situation,
he urged immediate abandonment of
price fixing negotiations with coal
operators and the establishment un-
der the Lever food control bill OF a
reasonable maximum price.
Instead of lowering prices. Mr.
Thorne said, the Peabody agreement
has raised them in Indiana and Illi-
nois.
Operators, Mr.. Thorne declared.
are refusing to make contracts direct
with consumers, and compelling
them to contract with friendly job
bers that they may share in the
etra twenty-five cents a ton profit
allowed jobbers by the Peabody
agreement

ROOSEVELT
MISQUOTED
The Colonel Accuses DR..
Kuno Meyer of "GrosS
Improperly"
(By Associated Press.l

New York. Aug. 11.-Col. Theodore
Roosevelt declared in a statement
yesterday that he had been mis-
quoted by DR.. Kuno Meyer. Berlin
professor, in DISPATCHES from Am
sterdam. He said Prof. Meyer was
guilty of gross impropriety'' in
quoting him concerning compensa-
ton and indemnities Germany might
collect.
Mr.. Meyers statement is sub
stantially correct, with this excep-
tion," said Roosevelt, II did not say
the Austro-German victory would
entitle them to compensation or in
IDENTITIES or to form a mid European
federation under Germany's agency
What ! said was that if Germany
was victorious she undoubtedly
would exact the utmost limits OF
compensation and indemnity she
could wiring from all her adver-
saries, including the United States
and l added she would take them
from the United States whether we
went to war or not.
I'VE are fighting for our nearest
and dearest interests to make the
world safe for America. ?? Until
America shows her ability to 4 do
that, she should not talk about max
ing the world safe for democracy.
Let us remember that pacifists
and pro- Germans stand where the
copperheads stood in the Civil war.
This applies to some senators and
congressman and newspaper editors.
/ hope congress Immediately will
pass a law refusing to allow any
paper to be published in German or
the language of any other of our
opponents while the war lasts"
