ing and all necessities to a well Or
dered life.
The cost of living is not a theory
with the workers; it is plain. un-
vanished tale that cannot be ex-
planned away by sophistry. The
United States bureau of statistics
shows that living costs are mounting
higher and higher It's report for Au-
gust, this year. shows an increase
of two per cent over last July, an
increase of Is per cent between Au-
gust last year and August this year.
and an increase of 70 per cent dur
ing the five year period between Au-
gust, 1913. and August, 1918.
THE right to live comes first, and
workers will resist any attempt to
reduce their living standards. in view
of present costs, even though some
employer talks of capturing the mar
kets Of the world.
Il am hopeful that the best
thought among employers and other
elements of our citizenship, will agree
that nothing will create more inter
nal turmoil than a denial that the
highest possible living standards for
workers is the first requisite for the

INVESTIGATION is MADE
OF THE FUEL SITUATION
Senate Committee Probes Into Fail

Use Culm Banks.

Washington, Nov. 28.-Failure of
coal producing agencies to utilize
culm banks or waste coal to relieve
the fuel shortage, and Food Admin
istrator Garfield's objection to Mayor
Hyland's inventory last month OF
New York city's coal supply were
subject Of inquiry by the senate com
mittee investigating the fuel situa-
ton.
j. b. Neale, director Of production
for the fuel administration and
owner of anthracite properties, told
the committee he knew of no al
legged understanding among mine
owners to keep culm off the market
as means of maintaining high
prices. He attributed the failure of
the owners of culm banks to utilize
fully that product to a shortage of
labor and desire to prevent reduc-
tion of the output of fresh coal by
taking men from the mines for the
work of treating the cheaper grade.

SOON THROW THE RAU,
ISSUE INTO CONGRESS
Resignation of Mr.. McAdoo Brings
Question of Government Con-
troll to Surface.

Washington. Nov. 2S.-William
G. McAdCo's resignation as head OF
the treasury and railroad admins
tration precipitated discussion of the
future status of railroads, an issue
which had been somewhat dormant
up to the present. Indications were
that result of his retirement would
be to thr-w into' congress and irto
public discussion much sooner than
otherwise the issue Of whether gov
ernment operation is to continue in
definitely. whether this will be ex-
tended to government ownership or
whether the roads will be restored
to private management, with some
sort OF federal revision to permit
their continued pooling and unified
operation.
Speculation as to Mr.. McAdoo's
successor. however, took equal rank
with the discussion of the future
policy toward the railroads.
For the position as secretary Of
the treasury. Representative Carter
Glass, of Virginia, chairman Of the
house banking and currency com
mittee, is known to be under serious
consideration by several of Presi-
dent Wilson's closest advisers.
Friends of Mr. Glass say he has q
reputation for being a close student
and constructive thinker on financial
enterprises
For director general OF railroads
there appears to be much doubt of
the Presidents selection Such a
man as Maj. Gen. George w. Coe-
thals is wanted, 1t was stated-a
man with executive ability not
closely connected heretofore with
railroad management. who could
view problems from the public
standpoint.
On the new director general of
railroads. whoever he may be, will
devolve the task of guiding the
roads through the readjustment pc
riod
Upon the policies of the new rail
director will depend largely wheth-
er the government shall continue
combining the railroads into a homo
senous unit or begin the breaking
up process in preparation for re-
sumption OF private control From
the Presidents selection, observers
believe, may be determined to a
large degree the attitude OF the adj
ministration on the railroads fu-
ture. This Is one reason why the
picking of new director general is
regarded as fraught with such un-
usual significance.
