/ that the coal should by all means,
be delivered, since there 10 no short
age of coal here, at least. No reply
has been received from the conf
munication wired to Director-Gen-
eral Hines several days ago by Mayor
A. w. Chambliss.
The fuel Administrations policy Is
said by many to be due to the fear
that negotiations at Washington be-
tween miners and operators will be
cut on without an agreement being
reached. The miners may then 60 out
on strike second time, and all coal
will be needed to keep the railroads
in operation. Thus far the lines run
ming into Chattanooga have not had
to confiscate an ounce of coal. There
is said to be plenty of coal to keep
the roads In operation for the present.
at least Since miners returned to
work, hetween $500 and 1,700 cars
have passed through the city con-
signed to roads of the middle west
region.
Calls for coal cars have been re-
ceiven from many mines. especially
around the Birmingham district. The
Chattanooga district is apparently

All mines of the district are re-
ported to be open but the mines in
the vicinity of Tracy City. The min
ers were said to have held a meeting
and decided to return to work
Wednesday. A second meeting, how
ever, was held and the men decided
to stand firm. No plans are being
made for the opening of the mines.
The Tracy City district has nor

AUTO THIEVES.

While there has been a steadily in- creasing activity on the part O. auto- mobile thieves throughout the eastern states and particularly in the larg.r cities, where many cars are stolen every day, it is by no means confined 10 this part of the country. There are those in every state who are quick to see inc possibilities which lie in that direction and are engaging in their work in a manner which indicates that there is a cleverly perfected or sanitation behind 1t.
 Out in Nebraska there is a feeling that the police are not dealing effee- lively with the situation, that they gre not on their jobs when it comes to preventing the therts or appre- hendng the robbers. The result is that there is a demand for as great an efficiency on the part O. the au- ihorities IS. that displayed by the dar- ing and persistent takers of other peo- Ile's property.
 It i1 perfectly apparent, however. that a policeman can not be stationed aH a guard for every automobile. and that there is TO little blame which rests upon the owners for the care less manner in which cars are left unprotected at all hours of the day and night on public streets as lure to the clever thieves, who are not only familiar with the operation of Inc machines but are handy in overcom- ing the many simple devices for lock- ing them.
 The large number that are being stolen must make it evident to the owners that they must exsr. every possible precaution in protecting their property for it can hardly be expect ed thaT the whole burden can he thrown upon the shoulders of the po- lice, who while doing the'r best arc bound to be under a big handicap With the owners and the police work ing carefully together the number ol thefts ought to be greatly diminished while the imposition of Il severe ser- tonce upon such robbers as are caught l. what the situation demands

ENDING FUEL CONTROL,

According to the notification which has been given out by the fuel admin istration, all restrictions on coal are at an end. That means that the time has been reached when the regulations which 1t was found necessary for the government to impose in order to as- sure proper supply of fuel for all sections of the country have been lifted and that henceforth the dealers can do their own price fixing.
 That this step was about to be taken was indicated by advance in- formation in regard to bituminous coal but it is all the more welcome that anthracite should be included. The fuel situation has been materlafiv re- lieved by the mild winter which has thus far been provided and by the improvement which has taken place in the distribution. Just at present curtailed industrial operations have relieved the drain upon the bitumin- GUS supply and the curtsiied con- sumption of hard coal has left a sur plus on hand which has caused re- duction in mining operations. Tha price has dropped slightly and with an adequate supply it should Grot still more, which of course interests all those who haven't been able tc | obtain sufficient to meet their win | ter's needs.
 1 It is noticeable In this connection i however, that the fuel administration
 regardless of the attitude of the reil. road and the wire admiristra tions
 does not call for the extension Of tht control for a fixed or an inde6nit; 1 period. There is no appeal for tn, purchase Of the mines by the govern
 ment or a\ prolonged control. The in dications are that the fuel admins 1 tration considers that it's work ha,
 been completed or will be as soon al l peace is declared Snd that it is in
 position to begin now to wind up it affairs. t is one thing for which tn
 fuel administrator will rot be con | demned.

INSTITUTIONAL DEMANDS.

IL is interesting to note that the number of bills presented to the gem cral assembly now in session at Hart ford is several hundred less than in 1917. That may indicate 8 reason for a1 earlier completion of the business of the lawmakers but # is quite evident nevertheless that there is going to to need of giving the closest atten- ton 10 meeting the requirements of the state and it's institutions
 Az If t had been inspired by the announcement that the state was out or debt general movement appears to he underway for the boosting of salaries fer about every office that comes within the Jurisdiction Of the . legislature, ard such increases it is p 10 be remembered are net to be tenn - IoTary but once voted will continue ct the raised figures rntil such e time as other demands for moro salary h. ereascs are presented.
 According to the statement of the board of finance of Connecticut it IS going to require about sS 0G0 O6O more for the carrying on of the business of the commonwealth and the proper maintenance of ifs institutions if what Is sought is voted. The institutional needs Of a state are those whioh can not as a rule he disreearded Having been established to meet conditions they must be maintained and the only way to keep them up and do what is needed is to meet the situation that IS confronted.

It has heen necessary 10 protect the publi hy such institutions and certainly such requirements as are justified fir their successful operation should be provided

DUE TO THE WAR.

When it became evident that this country must shoulder the burden Of supplying wheat to the allied nations during the war, it was recognized that it would never be possible 10 do 50 unless there was an increase in the production of that grain. lh order to get the wheat raisers to meet the de- lnand it became necessary 10 gttaran- tee the price and the result has been that the farmers have gore into the business of wheat raising as they never did before, and from what can be learned the weather conditions hare been favorable for larga crop. The fixing of the price prevented the con- sumers at home from being made to come across with much higher prices than they had to meet. and there was mighty howl at the time against such restrictions even though the price of wheat was more than dou- bled,
 The end of the war came, however, before the period expired in hich the price was guaranteed. That means that the government must meet
 
 promised to do, and that means pay the wheat raisers the s2.26 a bushel that was agreed upon. With the can- cellation of foreign orders because oi the ability to get grain elsewhere al 6 lower figure this government faces the breaking of it's promise or the standing of the loss which now seems probable in dealing with the drop in price due to the opening up of othe; markets where wheat has for a long | lime been kept in storage. There car be no thought of going back "n the guarantee. It was made in good faitE and accepted and it must he kept. i was action which was made necessary l by the war and the proposition of ap- 1 propriating an amount sufficient to seC l that the farmers are not made tC | bear the loss must be regarded as dut ] entirely to the war like other grea | expenditures.

holshevism which tells anew of the terrorism and havoc which have pre- vailed there since the policies of Le- Line and Trotzky were put into bp- eration.
 Her story is in keeping with the reports which have come from Russia regarding it's plight with the added fact that she speaks from experience. There can be no question but what that country needs all the help that it can get to aid it in rising from it's deplorable state of affairs but there certainly is no encouragement for the giving of assistance to the kind of a government which the bolsheviki are showing that they stand for. When Mime. Breshkovskaya declares that bolshevsfn is something entirely dis tinct from socialism. her declaration receives substantial support from the
 manner in which the socialists of Germdfiy have been and still are fighting 1t, and there can be little sur prise that the other Russian factions want nothing to do with it and refuse even to sit in a conference with any Of it's representatives.

FROM ONE WHO KNOWS.

While there are those in this coun- try who are inclined to look with fa- vo- upon the bolshevilii in Russia af- ter what is known of their conduct and practices it is particularly inter- esting to note what Mime. Bre3hkov- skaya, widely known as the eiand- mother Of the revolution, and who Is now in this country, has 10 say in regard to the distress which they have caused in her country.
 She has been ill touch with the conditions about which sine speaks, she has seen and knows 30 that when she declares that Russia ''now has no culture, no factories, mills. institutes schools, colleses-not even the alpha bet and that every semblance of law and order and education has been de- stroyed there can be little question nut what she presents picture of
