Paris.-A strange cure, of a psychic

The patient was young woman Of

years had been possessed with an anti
religious mania. During this time the

exasperated the patient to the point of

SCOUT PLANES TO

glers.
The attention of the treasury depart
ment was particularly directed to this
new danger of employing modern
methods in smuggling by the accident
al capture of an airplane that came
across the Canadian border into north
ern New York with several cases Of
contraband liquor. 1t was entirely
owing to an accident, however, that
this capture was made, and the Off
cials of the government have no doubt
that large quantities of contraband
liquor have reached this country al
ready over the same air route.
Planes to Patrol Air.
There is reason to believe that some
venluresome pioneers of this new mode
of smuggling through the air have al
ready landed several thousands of dol
lars worth of semlpreciOus stones
from the topaz mines in Mexico, some
where In the interior of the United
States.
A any rate. the menace to the na-
tional revenues has become so imme-
diate that Secretary Glass has decided
that he will ask congress for transfer
of GOO airplanes and hydro-airplanes
from the army and navy to his depart
ment and funds enough to create an
effective air patrol.
To Blk Customs Revenue.
Later on he will ask also for the
transfer from the navy of a large fleet
of Eagles which were specially de-
signed for chasing submarines, in or
der to protect the seacoasts and estu-
aries from the danger of smuggling by
submarines.
Equipped with these two modern
craft for navigating the sea and air,
the secretary of the treasury believes
that he will be able to interrupt any
Illicit commerce designed to defeat the
national prohibition laws or to blk
the government out of customs reve-
nues.

The settlement made of the coal
strike the first of the week is crafty
ing TO the nation, tho it did have TO
come thru orders from federal court.
But the miners obeyed the order of
the court and showed themselves 100
per cent American, the conservative
element of their organization prevailing
over the radicals. Next we want to
see the Government clamp right down
on the mine owners and force them to
do exactly right by the miners, treating
both sides alike in the matter. The
mine owners have raised prices on coal
time and again and have made what
the miners knew was an unreasonable
profit on it and they fel. that if the
mine owners were reaping such a rich
harvest then they should demand and
receive their share of that profit. 1t
has been shown that owners of such in
dustres as the mines and many others
are demanding an unfair profit and the
knowledge of this fact las had much
to do with making dissatisfied the work
men in these industries. The great
public occupies middle ground and no
matter who gets the unfair profit il
it has i. to pay, but should see to max
ing the profit fair and reasonable and
fairly divided between owner and
workmen.

Seldom day passes that the daily
papers do not refer in numerous instan-
stances to the shortage of labor in the
industries Of the country. The farmers
are short of labor, the industries are
short of labor, and it all leads one TO
wonder what has become of the labor
ing people of the country. The pres
ident OF one of the districts of coal
miners stated last week that there are
more coal miners in the business than
can be kept busy and hence their de-
mand for just thirty working hours to
the week. Those who have been all
thru the years doing the work of the
country are yet in the country and the
wonder Of it all ia that there is any
shortage of laborers. The reduction of
working hours has had the effect Of
cutting about one fifth the producing
power of workmen Of the United STATE $
and that time cut off is now badly need
ed to restore the industrial equilibrium
of the industrial world. And here are
the main causes of the lack of labor:
First thousands are idle, being able to
live several weeks work, on the
pay for a weeks work and second
that the reduction Of hours of labor has
served to cut off one fifth from the
power to produce.
