The Coal and the Idea.
The coal is there, and the idea is
there, and the plan is working out
on a small scale, under adverse condi.
tions and with the most, costly plan
of distribution. The loss Of current

is not great. TO increase five towns
to 500 is only simple matter, of engi
neering and mathematics, experts
say, and they predict the day will
come when a league Of municipalities
or some far-sighted. corporation will
install a central power, plant at the
mouth Of some such Ignite mine as
that at Bitumina. Then, they say.
these fortunate towns will enjoy the
benefits of light and power at rates
which no hydro electric. proposition
can duplicate. They say, too, that the
centralized power plant and not the
briquetting plant will solve the future

All of wars heroes do not fall in no mans rand
nor die in trenches stouty defended against enemy
attacks. Some who have never set foot upon eat.

silent temple of eternal fame.
Among these are those brave souls who every
day toll in powder mills and munition factories
We don't stand by and cheer them as they 60 TO
their most essential war work. There is no mar
tial music to quicken their steps and no medals

It is only when we count the dead and wounded
at such disasters as that of the IT, N. I. plant at
Split Rock N: Y, that we come to realize the
sacrifices these brave men and women make, and
the risks they run. So too when Great Britain
lost three score or more of workers in the Midlands

HUN .PREP0STEROUSNESs

.5sF Perhaps the acme Of German preposte
was reached in the giving out by the German ad-
miralty of q statement denying that Hun sub
marine torpedoed and sank the Canadian hospital
ship Llandovery Castle. .s s;
apparently no one observed a submarine. The
cause may be attributed to British NINE" says
Berlin. .}4 ,
And this despite the. fact that several sur: sur,
vivors Of the Llandovery Castle were taken aboard
the submarine and Intercepted, including among
them the captain and second officer Of the hos
pital ship; despite the fact that the submarine
cruised amid the wreckage, apparently intent on
Sinking without trace" despite the fact that q
conversation took place between the .U-boat COM
mander and the captain of the hospital ship!
There can be but one explanation Of such in
formal and prima facie falsifcation Germany has
been convinced that she has gone one step too far
in brutality and ruthlessness.
Possibly the Prussan war lords are beginning
to fear the effect of such atrocities on public opn
ion at home. Killing doctors and nurses is aigame
two can play at. While it is extremely unlikely
that the allies reprisals will take this inhuman
form, the German mind can conceive of no reason
why the allies shouldn't commit the same crimes
their own people do n ts%s
There is no weak defense Of the sinking of the
Llandovery Castle such as Germany offered for
the Lusitania crime. There is only blind, obstin-
ate denial in the face Of facts. 4 - 49,

in their denials- they will believe anything the

Dear folks: III ....,4 Is
This is the letter that l. have been

ceiyed my Letter that wrote Mothers

laziness we feel, at this time makes
me think Of the times we had at the
Fort. -, / guess that the 164th Inf, or
at least the l64th that was in will
never. reside at; or old ,billets there.
Many; of the soldiers that were famil-
lar. on the streets OF Bismarck are
never going to return to the old town.
Perhaps it is better that they don't.
We are getting to believe that every
thing is for the best and that the
worst is Just the beginning of the
best. ~
You. mentioned that you thought that
by the time received your letter that
II would be in the trenches, and it had
happened that you weren't wrong. We
had been in the trenches just q little
while before. We are taking our reg

A while back the whole country was talking
about heEneed Of coordination in: the govern
ments multiphase war work. One concrete re-
suit was the Overman law, which clothed the
president with new and wider powers for making
over government machinery to meet the exigen-
cies Of the times. @% 5.s ..z u
The need Of another sort of coordination is
now brought to mind by the federal trade COM!
missions report on profteering. This IS co-or-:
dination between price fixing and taxation. Hith-
erto this has been lacking. The war industries:
board, in devisihg and effectuating its plans for
the xation Of prices had the right to assume that
congress, when it came to write taxation BILL,
would take into consideration the undue profits
that might accrue to- certain men and concerns
under that plan. Congress-, however, went on it's
way Of tax experimentation without giving this
matter much consideration.
There are two objects aimed at, in price fixing:
To stabilize prices, and to secure maximum pro
duction. Under the resulting dead level Of stabi-
lized prices there must be consde rable variation
of production costs. One coal mine, for example,
has deposits so situated that they can be mined
easily and cheaply. Another mine producing the
same quality of coal has great expense in getting
its product to the mines mouth. Yet both mines
must sell at the same price Evidently one will
make a much heavier profit than the other. No
scheme Of price fixation can prevent profteering
Of this type without at the same time discour-
aging production. # = ..<4 I, IA s7S$
+. The remedy is taxation. More than month
ago the president said to- congress-: "Profteering
that cannot be got. at by the restraints Of con-
science can be got at BY taxation. : So can profit
eering that results from governmental price Ak

in its place scientific law: that will reduce profit
eering to a reasonable profitable basis. AS the
New York World says: ~. :sSs gss T s. s.
