GOVERNMENT MAY POOL ALL
COAL

Washington, D. c., Nov. 23.-Even-
tual government pooling and sale of
all the coal mined in the United
States was seen as possibility here
to-day in the fuel administrations ap-
prevail of producers pool just formed
at Cleveland, which will handle ship
ments of mines in Ohio, West Vir-
GINA, a part of Pennsylvania and
perhaps Tennessee and Kentucky.
Creation of other pools will be en-
couraged.
If government pooling is put into
effect it will be made operative next
spring and will supersede the ship
pers' pools. Under such an arrange
ment the government would requis;-
ton at the mines the entire output
of coal, selling it without profit.
Advantage in government pool
pointed out today by officials would
be that distribution would be easier
since the government itself would di.
rect shipments.

flags showing men who have joined
the colors to win the war for demo-
cracy are appearing on every hand in
Atlanta, both on the front porches
of homes and on the flag stats of va
rious establishments.
That Atlanta banks have contribut-
ed their full share to the war is in
dlcatGd by the service flag of sixteen
stars which hangs over the entrance
of the Fourth National Bank at Five
Points, showing that sixteen men in
the employ of this institution are
serving their country.
The service flag is one of the most
inspiring emblems of the war. Every
star on its field of blue stands for a
man who has jointd the army or the
navy. 1t means that family has Civ
EN- up son or father, and that a
bank or factory or store has given
up one or more of its valuable en-
ployees on the altar of patriotism.

DELEGATES FROM GEORGIA
ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE TO

CONVENTION

Atlanta, Nov. 24.-The Georgia
delegation attending the great con-
vention of the AntiSaloon League CT
America to be held in Washington on
December 10 and Is will go from
dry state to dry city as the national
capital has now joined the great and
growing prohibition ranks of the
country.
Plans for the trip are we'll under
way, and James A. Christian, super
intendent of the Georgia-Saloon
League, expects the delegation to be
one of the largest and most represen-
tative that ever went from Georgia
to attend convention of any kind.
The object of the convention in
Washington on the dates above
mentioned, when congress will have
settled down to business, is to press
for passage in the house the federal
amendment putting prohibition in the
constitution of the United States A
systematic campaign has been waged
for the past several weeks throughout
the country to build up sentiment in
favor of this amendment, and there is
every indication that it will pass the
house, 1t has already passed the
senate, having been put through at
the last session of congress. When
it has passed the house and the presi-
dent has signed it, the amendment
will then go to the legislatures of the
various states for ratification or re-
lection.
If ratified by thirty-six state legis-
latures within six years, the amend
ment will become a part of the fed
eral constitution and the manufacture
for sale, importation for sale and
shipment for sale of alcoholic liquors
will be forever prohibited in the
United States.

LABOR FEDERATION
ADJOURNED SATURDAY

Buffalo, N. ", Nov. 23--The Ameri-

affirmed its position against govern
ment by injunction and declared that
any injunction dealing with the rela-
tionship of employer and employee
based on the dictum that labor is
property "be held as usurpation and
disregarded, let the consequences be
what they may"
The declaration was adopted in
connection with a resolution relating
to recent decision of the Supreme
Court of the state of Washington en-
joining strikers from picketing. The
resolution asked the convention to
condemn the "reactionary attitude"
OF the court and to give its best coun-
sci and effort to the affected work
erS.
A committee favorab1y reporting
the resolution to the convention adj
ded this committee hold that de-
cisions and practices of this kind arc
more harmful to our government
than any other influence in our land.
The time is here when the Legislative
agencies of our state governments
must be the exclusive means OF maxi
ing of laws and rules of conduct.
The courts must be denied the powers
never intended to be exercised by

must end
Your committee holds that gov
eminent by our courts by Injunction

Shark Fishing Season.

The best season for catching sharks
seems to be during the cooler months
from October to March. Fishermen
say that sharks are not so plentiful at
other times Of the year.
The flesh, fms, maws, jaws and
other bones, livers and skins all enter
into the commerce Of Alden, which is
the center of the shark-fshing indus
try. The fresh meat of the smaller
sharks is sold regularly in the fish
bazaar at very reasonable prices to the
poorer classes of natives who cannot
afford other sorts of fish. The meat
IS strong, but is said to be quite palat-
able when one is accustomed to eat
ing 1t. The principal consumers Of
shark meat are the Arabs, although
the native Jews and Somalis also use
it. The Somali and Arab are Moham-
medans and their religion forbids eat
ing the flesh of any fish that has not
scales. However, the working classes
Of natives are so poor that shark meat
Is the only sort of fish they can afford.
