Prices of Coal

Mayor Hanson's request for impartial investga-
ton of coal prices is timely.
When the government set the price of wheat under
Food Administrator Hoover, it stayed fixed. There was
weekly and monthly fluctuations due this reason
or that.
The fuel administration, however has permitted a
rise in coal prices quite frequently, until today Seattle
lying in fertile coal belt, is paying outrageous price
for inferior coal.
These high prices be without profiteering Just
the points out the question is to public
confidence If the public convinced that the prices
however attudnous, without profteerng percent
the people would buy prepare for the winter avoid
fuel famine and keep the miners at work AS it is they
not buying and the men not working steadily.
The mayors courage in speaking straight from the
shoulder in this situation is to be commended

damage suit filed by A. w. Pipes
who wants to recover $4,000 from

alleged libelous publications about
his financial transactions in Lemhi

There is no question ABOUT the pub
licatiOns. which were made, as the

his famous cattle deal as well as
minor matters that are set forth inJ
