SITUATION HERE
BEING RELIEVED
Coal Shortage In keokuk 10 Still
Acute, But Several Cars Are
Being Brought Into the
City Today.
ROADS HELPING OUT
Wabash and Burlington Both Bring
Fuel Cars Into keokuk and
Fuel Men Make Rapid
Deliveries.
ROADS HELPING OUT

The coal situation in Keokuk was
somewhat relieved today, but the
seriousness of the case here may be
imagined when it is known that out
of seventy-four deliveries of coal
which were made yesterday. seventy
three of these were to. houses where
there was not enough coal to have
lasted through the day. Coal was
brought in over the Burlington and
the Wabash railroads to the local
dealers today.
Three carloads came in over the
Burlington this afternoon for one or
the dealers. The Wabash this morn
ing brought in two car loads for
dealers, and about eight cars for one
of the local industries. This with
the five cars sent in over the
Wabash Saturday, with the road
making every effort to make dellv-
cries of coal known to be at Bluffs,
Keokuk probably will weather the
storm.
Camefon's. yesterday. so the fuel
administration announced today
made deliveries to seventy-four
houses where there were 8. o. s..
calls, and in all but one place there
was found to be just enough coal to
last through the day.

BIG PROFITS
FOR PACKERS
Increased Fifty Per Cent Since War
Began, While Retailers Have
Noted a Reduc-
ton.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.l
CHICAGO, Feb. 4,-Evidence to
prove an Illegal combine Of packers
will soon be given the department
Of justice, Francis ]. Heney, in charge
Of the federal trade commissions in
vestigation, declared here today. Hen
ey was to confer with Chas. G. Clyne,
U. s. district attorney to plan action
for securing further evidence.
Heney said there would be little
trouble" In compelling packers attor-
neys here to turn over papers. Their
vaults have been sealed by the COM
mission to prevent removal Of papers
until decision is reached, possibly in
federal court today.
"Since America entered the war.
packers profits have increased fifty
per cent" Heney declared. 1.-THE pro-
fits of the retailers have been reduc-
ed and many have been forced out OF
business"

Newspapermen Should GET Together

people was asked to contribute in
coin and then take the goods down
Off their shelves and contribute q
like amount, except the newspapers,
but they did it promptly and patri-
otically Perhaps they should do SO
again but not unless space thus
given should be recognized as add1-
tional contributions for the causes
specified, and the Iowa association
should adopt some rule SO that pup
fishers whose space Is already cur
tailed by high cost OF paper and other
things which enter into the making
of a newspaper nowadays shall not
be inferentially considered as slack
ers because they will not turn over
their columns to every bureau At
Washington and elsewhere to print
the volumes of stuff whose only mis-
sion seems to be to consume the
supply of white paper and give en-
ployment to SO many clerks ana
highbrows who ought to be raising
navy beans or doing something more
practical to end the war. If the
money spent on these impractical
and too often senseless circulars and
pamphlets, and multiplied appeals for
all kinds of causes, most of them I'M
practical, could be placed in the
hands of newspaper advertising ex-
perts to center attraction and con-
centrate action--in short, striking ad-
vertisements with the punch, In the
newspapers, it would accomplish a
hundred fold result and show some
little appreciation Of the free Will
Offering of space and energy of the
press, which Napoleon said was more
noWerful than bayonetS.
When the question Of postage was
before congress, the newspaper pub
! fishers were at sea. They were not
unit, as were the magazine publish
ers, and the bill passed was not the
result Of careful elaboration and
united action of the newspaper fra
! ternity. Right now the magazines
are conducting a powerful propa-
ganda by which they hope they may
send hundreds of tons of advertising
matter hundreds of miles through
the mails at the same cost as the
humble publisher sends his few hun
dred pounds a few miles. What the
Iowa Editorial association ought to
do, and what other state editorial
associations ought to do is to take
counsel on these and other questions
that affect them, become unit in
desire, purpose and action, and then
| delegate their brainiest and most
aggressive representatives to watch
| their interests at Washington and If
reason does not reign at the capital
b! to tip off to the constituency when
to start the home fires burning under
! the seats of the various congressman
to warm their chilled TRIBES. They
should approach the discussion OF
any matter as one body and with
one mind The day is past wher
the every man for himself" policy
can win out.
