THE COAL STRIKE.

VIGOROUS and prompt action by the administration
in handling the coal strike should and undoubtedly
will be heartily approved by congress and the public Only
by such action the threatened evils of fuel shortage
enforced ideness and famine be minmized and wide
spread suffering aeviated.
The welfare of the people is above the rights of either
party to an industrial dispute and the of the full pow
er of government is justified by the defiant refusal of
union officials to heed the protest and comply with the
pressed desire of the president to cooperate in ayerng
industrial disaster
When any class of men, any organization Of capital
or Of labor thinks its selfish interest and power
greater than that Of the United States government and
defiany refuses cooperation insisting upon unreaso
able demands refusing mediation and arbitration it is
high time the government asserted its authority with
strong hand.
Of course the government cannot compel any man to
work. if he is intent upon deness but it can under the
emergency statutes still in force take complete con-
troll Of the coal mines and operate them with men who will
work. and it re-estabish wartime control Of fuel
shipments, and it can keep order in the coal regions
The strike leaders radical at heart bolshevild
and their followers mostly foreigners The real OBJ
ect Of the coal strike along with many Of the other
strikes is political Revolution is the purpose of the reds
and they have gone just about far public policy per-
mits. Every demand realized is stimulus for greater
demands and the time has for show down---to adj
minister check to the apostles Of dscord seeking to de-
stroy industry and overtu1n the government.

UNIVERSAL TRAINING.

n ENERAL PERSHING has gone on record as favoring
~ universal military training and the maintenance of
comparatively small regular army of 100000 men. His
Iopnion reflects that of most members Of the American
Expeditonary Forces and is based upon experience ac
|quired during the war.
The benefits of universal training are set forth as
follows: development of physical vgor and manhood de-
veopment of mentality; decrease of iteracy; teaching
of discipline and respect for constituted authority deve
opment of initiative and better preparation for the duties
Of citizenship especially among aliens.
The fact that the United States was not prepared,
occasoned the violation of right by Germany that per-
occasoned the violation Of rights by Germany that pre-
cciptaed the war, and the preparation furnished by uni
versa training would safeguard the nation in the future
While universal military training had large part to
do with causing the war; it the ambitions of autoc
racy backed by large standing armies rather than the
forces that precptated the conflictand it was
the universal training Of France that saved that country
and the universal training of Switzerland and Holland
that maintained their neutrality.
While is hoped that the league of nations will min
imze and eventually abolish it. there no gansayng
the benefits to be derived from universal physical train
ing whereby each youth would spend few months for
several years in physical and mental development The
throwing together of the youth of the country would
make for national unity-and there is no danger of the
American temperament ever becoming militarized
Incidentally General Pershing declared that America
lis longer measured by wealth, population nor form
of government, but by our purposes to maintain high
ideas' Yet the main effort Of the senate leaders since
the armsce has been to shatter these high ideals and
place the United States upon the narrow vsoned selfish
plane that has cursed feudalized Europe
