OPERATORS REFUSE 10 FILL
 ORDERS AT CONTRACT PRICE
Clifford Thome Gives Out Statement That the Only Way Prices Can Be
 Lowered is for the Government to Operate the Mines or Purchase the Entire Output of the Smaller Mines.

Washington Jan, 7.-Profits of many coal operators in the middle west were materially increased by coal prices fixed by the government, the senate Investigating committee was told today by Clifford Thorne, study of the situation and David l.. Wing, an examiner of the federal trade commission.
 Much of the shortage of coal now experienced over the country was at tributed by Thorne to excessive ship ments to the northwest, "th tempta ton of coal operators to hold back for higher prices" greatly increased consumption, interference with distri- button through natural channels and an inadequate car supply.
 elief. the witness said, can be brought about only through govern chase of the entire output of the coun- try. If neither is resorted to, lower prices could be made possible, he said, duct of the small mines fin which pro- by the government buying the pro- duction costs are higher. Mir. Thorne said he did not believe it wise to try to increase production by opening the new mines or working the mines that have been idle as the high produc tion costs in such mines would tend only to increase prices to consumers
 Thorne told the committee the public has not had proper representa- tion in the mattersof price fixing and that in general and in the Illinois fields in particular, prices allowed were much too high. He said that all though contracts made before the price fixing would have been prob able, many operators declined to fill them, making deliveries in most in- stances only at government prices. This was done, he said, despite the fact that it was stipulated In the price fixing plan that contracts then in force should not be affected.
 In the Illinois fields some opera tors, the witness said, ar receiving under government prices one hun dred per cent more than in 1916, when prices were considered high. He also declared there are wide dis crepancies in deliveries now being mad and as an illustration said the government was having delivered Camp Dodge, Iowa, one hundred tons daily at a price fifty per cent higher than the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy was paying for similar coal from the same operator.
 Examiner Wing was called to show the difference between production costs at several mines and the prices the government allowed, but did not have complete data and will be fur ther examined later.

ARTILLERY DUELS ARE
 NOW IN PROGRESS THERE
Two Infantry Movements, One of Which Was RepuIsed by the Allies ant the Losses to the Enemy Were sanguinary-Russian Situation Still Remains Clouded.

New York, Jan, 7.--Although infan- try operations in the major war the atres are of minor character. signs are not wanting that big battles are in tle process of making in Flanders. France and Italy.
 At various points in these three war zones intensive artillery duels are go- ing on day and night. They are par ticularly severe in the region of Ypres and the Cambrai sectors where the British are facing the Germans, along the Aisne, on the Verdun sector, and along the Moselle rive rand in the Italian highlands from the region of Lake Garda eastward 10 the Piave river.
 However, west of Ypres, west of Flanders, the Germans have made an attempt to enter British positions, but were repulsed with heavy losses un- der the fire of British infantry and machine guns. Likewise an attempt ed raid against the French positions on hill 304 in the Verdun sector was stopped with sanguinary losses to the Germans. These two maneuvers con stitute the only activity by infantry forces at any points except that small British patrols at several places forced crossings of the Piave river against the Teutonic allies.
 The situation ar-'ing in the dis . agreement between the Teutonic al- lies and the Bolshevik leaders in Russia still remains clouded owing to lack of definite information concern ing the trend tn negotiations are talk ins or whether they have entirely ceased, An unofficial dispatch from Petrograd quotes NJ Radek, one of the Bolsheviki delegates, who has been treating with the Austrians and Germans in Petrograd as declaring that the Bolsheyiki is definitely strengthening the fighting front. but that the Russians will accept no help from the entente allies if they are forced to fight again as the Russians are fighting for an ideal and not for conquest The Bolsheviki, like the German working classes. adds M Radek. stand for democratic peace and if the German government at

Rheumatism is caused by uric acid
which is generated in the bowels and
function of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast it out
in the urine; the porA of the skin
are also a means of freeing the
blood of this impurity. In damp and
chilly, cold weather the skin pores
are closed, thus forcing the kidneys
to do double work; they become weak
and sluggish and fail to eliminate
this uric acid, which keeps accumu-

system, eventually settling in the

slant repetition, can be thoroughly
learned, there is no doubt that you
will get your quota of the necessary
men.
1t is not mere numbers that count;
it is the efficiency of the men en-
rolled.
1t is as much to the interest of
the manufacturer to send his best
men to the shipyards as it is to the
interest of the man himself to go.
If the use of my name will in any

have the authority to use it, quoting
from this statement, to the end that

the greatest living French authors,
first produced this novel, it took the
world by storm. 1t has gone through
many editions and is still selling in

Some time later the famous COM

Mr.. J. George White, Chairman Es-
Gambia County Council of Defense,
Pensacola, Fla.
Dear Mr.. White:
Because of your official position,
and the vital Importance of the work
of enrolling the United States ship
yard volunteers, in which you are en-
gagged, l desire to lay before you a
statement outlining the shipbuilding
situation.
The information herein contained
is placed at your disposal for use as
you may see fit for obtaining the en-
rollrlent of the necessary men for the
United States shipyard volunteers.
Our ship-building program contem-
plates the construction of six mill
lion tons annually, but owing to the
want of the necessary skilled men,,
we are not under present conditions
in a position to- turn out that ton
mage.
The shipping board has the money.
1t has the yards. 1t has the material.
The housing question is being rapidly
cleared up All that is needed is to
obtain the necessary efficient labor.
1t should be brought home to en-
ployers and to the employees of the
industries OF the nation JnaL JnelT
own future depends on the construc-
ton of these ships. The fact is that
the recent order issued by Fuel Ad-
ministrator Garfield, closing the fac
tories of the whole country, and the
more recent freight embargo issued
by Secretary McAdoo, tying up all
the freight with the exception of
food and fuel, came not because of
a falling down on the part of the
carriers themselves, but because of
the lack of ships. The reason for
this is plain. TIE speeding up of the
American factories piled in the east
ern seaports and packed into every
railway siding outside of the sea-
board cities, thousands of loaded
cars of materials for the war Zzone
The result was that even the coal
required for the ships in harbor could
not get through, and even the few
ships which we ne - Po=-1ss were
held in harbor by empty bunkers and
could not sail.
Until we have ships to clear the
Atlantic ports of manufactured goods,
for which our army in France and
our allies are in need, these enforced
holidays and embargoes must recur,
with the result that no factory in
America can be assured of running
full time and no workman can count
on continuous employment.
