URGE DRASTIC ACTION
TO LOWER COAL PRICES
No Excuse For Present Cost,
Says Illinois Council.

Chicago. Aug. 1-Drastic action by
the state to curb high prices of coal
was recommended to the Illinois state
council of defense by the council COM
mittee which last week met with req
resentatives of the coal mine operators
Of illinois
The report said There is no ex-
cuse for the present high prices OF
coal in Illinois"
Whether the action would be re.
quest for a special session of the leg
islature to give greater powers to the
council or an order fixing a minimum
price was not announced.
The report called attention to the
fact that coal which was selling last
year for $135 a ton IS now being
quoted al s. 10 $3.50 a ton. Wages
have gone up only twenty cents ton.
"This increase" the report declares.
cannot account for jump of s2.15

Houses Made of Glass.

Glass is becoming more generally
used as building material each year.
For some years glass bricks have been
utilized where strength and dura bility
as we'll as beauty We're essential fea-
lures. Glass is used for wainscoting,
for partitions. for ceilings and for fac
ing the fronts of buildings. 1t Is also
being used for founda tons.
1t has been demonstrated that the
crushing strength Of glass Is three
times that of granite. six times that Of
ordinary brick and ten times that OF
concrete. Another advantage 1t has
over these materials is that it is abso-
lutely nonabsorbent, so that a glass
building can be perfectly dry inside, no
matter what the atmospheric cOndi-
