Former Secretary of Treasury
Makes New Statement
on Coal Profits

New York, Nov. 2S.-Profits sew
eral times in excess of the entire
capital invested, came back to. many
coal operators in 1917. William G..
McAdoo. former Secretary of the
Treasury, declares in further
statement relative to the coal con-
troversy. He asserted those opera
tors must now be on velvet" The
statement follows:
THE coal operators assert that I
gave out confidential information
when I stated that profits of the
mine owners in 1917 ranged from
10 to 1000 per cent. on the capital
stock before deduction of taxes.
This was not confidential informa-
ton. The Treasury Department
may publish statistical matter of this
character any time. In fact, infor-
nation concerning this very subject
was furnished by me to the United
States Senate in response to a reso-
luton introduced by Senator Borah
concerning profiteering, and was
published July S, 1918. (See Senate
document 259-65th Congress-2nd
session..
I'm this report the returns of sew
eral hundred coal companies showed
profits ranging from Is to 500 per
cent. on their invested capital in
1917. The range of profits was
higher on capital stock.
I'm short many coal operators got
back their entire capital several
times out of their profits in 1917,
as shown by the reports, and must
now be on velvet"

By dssocinfed Press.

New York, Nov. 2S.-Establish-

pending investigation and disposal
of their cases, is the latest plan of
the House Immigration Committee
now conducting an inquiry at Ellis

The camp would be similar to
those in use during the war for the
internment of enemy aliens and
would be the temporary abiding
place of all agitators collected any

their conduct or utterances, make
their further sojourn in this country

 This is the theme upon which Mrs. Kate Corbaley builded when she wrote the ive-act drama Gates Of Brass especially for that veteran char acter actor, Frank keenan. Although Inc quotation reads almost like the text Of a sermon. yet the dramatist has founded thereon a powerfully compelling story of mode ern life The principal character is tin horn" gambier-a shell game" eSpert-who sheyed his way into the ranks Of sbig pied upon en route. This man had known poverty and resolved that his motherless daughter should possess the comforts and attributes which money could purchase. He forgot the natural law of compensation; in fact, this ex-fair ground swindler probably never knew that such a law existed found that all the money in the world, if gained 'dishonestly, could not com pensate for the loss of his daughters love and respect.
