Louis Morgan Sends
Yanks' Book of Fun

The Times-Recorder has just re-
ceived from Louis A Morgan, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. L. A. Morgan, who is
with Field Hospital No 10, second
division, now at SOyn, Germany, a
copy of "The Indian a weekly mag
azine published by the division.
The publication is an interesting
piece Of work, well gotten up and
entirely creditable. The cover is in
colors and the whole is full of illus
trations, all apparently done by the
men of the division. The magazine is
full of humor showing that all is
not drudgery in the army, as is shown
by the following joke, accompanying
a drawing of a doughboy on guard
duty challenging a German on. the
banks of the Rhine in the dusk of
the early morning:
Sentry: Halt! Who's there?"
Workman: "Arbeiten."
Sentry: "Arbeiten, he'll I've
already halted three by that name
and d-n I'll let another one

LITTLE COTTON ACREAGE
DECREASE, SAYS CAMPBELL

AUGUSTA, May 28.-Phil Campbell,
at the meeting of the agricultural
agents recently here declared that the
announcement made in New Orleans
recently that there had been a sub
stantial decrease in the cotton acreage
in Georgia is not borne out by re-
ports made by agriculture agents in
Georgia. Farm agents data show no
material decrease, he said. In the
southwestern portion of the state, de-
clare Campbell, an increased acreage
is shown Reports indicated healthy
growth of the wheat and bee indus
try of the state. Crops, though lac,
have not been seriously retarded by
the recent cold snap.

Three Partners in Prosperity.

Prosperity in any business can not
be one-sided, the public, labor, and
capital-all three-must share its
benefits. So, too, an idle industry as
sesses its losses upon each of these
three partners. The coal industry
furnishes abundant illustration of this
truth; the curve Of weekly coal pro-
duction tells the story of highly ir-
regular operation, and idle plants and
idle men are expensive taxes upon the
community and the nation. The ad-
~Nantages of regular employment ac-
crue alike to labor and capital; il is
the years earnings that really count,
whether it is the dollar or the man
whose service we thus measure. The
underlying cause of bad conditions in
the coal industry is the seasonal fluc-
tuation in demand, which has result
ed in the country being ~oyerequipped
with coal mines and coal miners.
The public interest lies in a longer
working year, not in a shorter day or
week, Largely on account of the ir-
regular market demand for coal, our
mines since the armistice have actu-
ally averaged only 80 hours working
time a week; throughout the year there
have been too many mines and too
many miners waiting for work. A
30-hour week is the ailment-not the

plain that adequate service and low
rates mean much TO the health
II not TO the very life of our industry,
Yet even as large buyers of transpor-
tation we should not seek preferential
rates at the expense of the rest of the
public, any more than as sellers of
fuel and metal We should be willing to
let the railroad administration pro-
cure its supplies from our mines and
furnaces and mills at prices so re-
lated TO bare cost hat the public must
make up the difference.
Mining and Government.
In its relation to the mining indus
try the government needs to be fair,
whether the relation is that of min
eral landlord or of business investi-
gator or of tax collector or of purchas-
er Of fuel and metals. The principle
laid down by President Wilson dur
ing the war that the government rate
should be the same as the rate to the
public should have been followed by
every one down the line, whatever his
title or insignia of office. Now that
we have had time to regain our poise,
/ think the public servant generally
wishes to serve rather than to COM
mandeer. We in the government SER
vice, however, must realize the neces-
sity of being ever more scrupulous in
our exercise of power than if we We're
in private business.
Welfare rather than wealth should
be the dominating note of our indus
try. But wealth may be defined as
provision for future welfare, inasmuch
as it is the surplus beyond present
needs. To the present day problem of
industrial unrest, then, what is the
answer, except to create a larger sur
plus. Whether among individuals or
among nations the d-fashioned ideas
of industry and thrift come nearer
the natural law than the new propo-
sition of a five-day week and a 6-hour
day. No protective tariff can safe
guard the home market for industries
biased on a 30-hour week, nor can Jul
industries expect to win or hold a
place in foreign markets IN any part
time program, unless there is some in
ternational agreement making for
universal Incidence, and even then we
may discover that there can be no re-
turn to garden of Eden conditions of
dustry. | believe the earliest prece-
dent was a continuing injunction for
a 6-day week, and no lower court has
since ordered any better rule of action
or revedsed that divine injunction.

THE MINING INDUSTRY
RELATION TO PUBLIC
WELFARE, NOT WEALTH, OUGHT
TO BE POLICY OF MAN
AGEMENT.

(Extract from address of George
Otis smith, director of U. S. bureau
of mines, before American Mining
Congress at st. Louis, November 1S).
The rank of the United States in
the worlds mineral industry is shown
by the fact that in the last normal
year, 1913, u output of the principal
mineral commodities constituted
about SO per cent of the worlds pro-
duction, or as much as that of the six
leading nations Of Europe together.
Here is where figures are more elo-
ouent thar adjectives in expressing
Americas industrial leadership.
We correctly describe Our industry
as a producer of basic wealth, but in
the policy Of the mining industry the
dominating note should be not
',wealth"\but welfare" In promot-
ing the general we'll being our indus
try is called upon to play no small
part.
Our duty is to provide an adequate
supply of the raw materials which
civilization takes as a matter of course
but without which civilization can not
survive.
The exact measure of our contribu-
ton to the world, however, is not the
dollar. The country's annual mineral
production passed the billion dollar
.,n,l- l.. 1000 caanbnd thn tV,n h;1It,t,
mark in 1907, exceeded three billion
dollars in 1916, and att lined five bill
lions in 1917 and five and a half bill
lions last year. The dollar is a handy
measuring stick, but the results it
gives need to be verified; quantity
and quality of commodities give the
truer measure of their usefulness. AS
a newspaper editor recently put it:
I'VE don't eat dollar marks; we con-
sumo production"
The reported value at the mine
significant of wages and possible pro-
fits to the mine workers and mine
owners, but it does not measure the
heat units made available for the
worlds work and comfort. The jump
of nearly a billion and a half dollars
in 1917 did not mean that our mines
contributed an additional AZ per cent
to the worlds needs. OF such essen
tial metals as copper, iron and lead,
as we'll as gold and silver, there was
a decreased output, a loss to the
world, aggregating more than half a
million tons. In short, the number of
loaded freight cars that daily leave
your plant gives a good measure Of
your usefulness to the world ire
spective of the size of your daily bank
deposit.
The most gratifying part of the
record of American mining and metal
lurgy is found in the increasing an
nual output of coal or iron per miner,
the steady improvement in recovery
of values from refractory ores, the
continued lowering in the grade Of
copper ore that can be handled at a
profit. and the increased safety TO
life and health of the workers. All
this is the result of engineering in the

Work of Engineers.

A true diagnosis of the financial
condition of our industry involves
bookkeeping that states the real eco
monte symptoms, In mining, as in all
other productive business, production
costs should express all the facts. In
the first place, such terms as met
earnings" profit met income"
SURPLUS or balance to surplus ac-
count" which appear on your finan-
cfal sheets, are too optimistic in tone
when the operating costs do not in
clude any charge on account of the
investment. The inference is too cas-
ly drawn that this surplus is avail
able for profit sharing between labor
md capital.
In the second place, | fear lest ac-
counting which does not count all the
costs may lead us to fail to appreciate
the results Of American engineering,
DUR mining engineers, backed up by
ed -blooded capitalists, are %
stantly lowering labor costs by in
creasing the investment in improved
mine equipment. This means replac-
ing the hardest part of labor with
naehinery-working dollars instead of
men-so that your cost-keeping con-
ceals the true state of things, if you
pay labor out of so-called costs and
capital out of so-called profits"
/ have elsewhere suggested that in
dustry must have a conscience, ire
spective Of the old charge that COR
porations have no souls. Our mining
industry can not stand right in the
eyes of the modern world, unless 1t
plays fair with the rest of the bust
ness organization. We must try to
see the other side of the shield, what
ever the transaction with our FELLOW
men, and | can best illustrate the ap-
~plication of the golden rule in econom
les by citing our relation to the rail-
'oads.
