FIRST CURTAILMENT

The discontinuance of foreign tom
mage bunkering was the first general
step taken by the government since the
coal strike began last Saturday toward
curtailment of Transportation. The cen
raj Committee made il plssin ha
9mcriesa.o% fed ships and tonnage I'M
der the AmericarA flag would continue
to receive coal supplies but all other
vessels as the situation now exists,
will be COMPEL to walt for the end
of the strike.
The committees action Is similar TO
that taken by Great Britain during the
recent strike OF British coal miners.
officials would not predict the result
of the order, as it was not known in
Washington the amount of foreign ton
mage now in American ports dependent
on coal supplies from this country
Vessels now being bunkered, in event
they are foreign owned, will be tied
up, as well as all such incoming yes
sells with insufficient supplies in their
holds to make the return trip.
Many vessels in the transatlantic
service and now in European ports II
was considered, would remain on that
side of the Atlantic unless facilities
were available for taking on enough
coal for the round trip voyage.
1t was apparent that the central COM
mittee considered that precedence must
be given to all land traffic in the mat
ter of fuel distribution before even
American ships will be accorded bunk
cring permits. Priority regulations will
be observed ito the letter. in dividing
the coal stocks, members of the com
mittee said, as the supplies of coal on
hand and in transit will just about
be able to take care of domestic de-
mands and necessary ocean transporta-
ton"

MANY PROFITEERS

Mr. Palmer declared people had taken
advantage of economic conditions
growing out of the war to exact in
their particular line a larger profit
than was their rightful due and hoped
to justify this form Of profiteering by
the excuse that everybody was doing
it,"
That kind of man is one kind or
another of a profiteer." Mr.. Palmer
added. land he is in my judgment the
most despicable scamp that can live
in any community in this emergency.
HE ought to De rooted out and ex-
posed to public scorn, and IL necessary
confined in public prison. In the two
months we have been engaged in the
campaign to bring down the cost of
living. prices have not gone up. If we
can keep prices stationary for a time
they will sag-they are bound to come
down If we can stop the movement of
this vicious circle--in rreased wages, in
creased prices and Increased cost of
production. chasing each other around
like a dog chases his tail. and hold the
price steady. prices will drop"

Move of Pennsylvania State
+ Labor Federation Denounced
By Attorney General Palmer
Declares 1t Will Be Glad Day
for Labor When Such Men
as Foster and Maurer
Lose Their Influence in
Labor's Councils

Harrisburg, Pa. November s.--Attor-
ney General Palmer denounced the
move of the Pennsylvania State Fereda-
ton of Labor for a general strike in a
speech here today, and said it would
be "a glad day for labor when such
men as James II. Maurer, its president,
and William D. Foster, steel strike or
ganizer, lose their influence in labor S
councils"
The attorney general spoke at fair
price conference called by Governor
Sproul, and urged that if the people
would increase their savings bg 10 per
cent the cost of living would fall 20
per cent in brief time.
Mr.. Palmer attacked the buy now"
campaign, declaring our job is to wait,
both in our interest and in the interest
of the nation and the world at large.
that the demand may be lightened"
He called upon 1.-THE plain people to
wear their old clothes a little longer.
to refuse to buy until production had
caught up with the demand. This. he
assured the officials, was one of the
principal means of ending the spectacle
it's tail around in a circle
UP TO PEOPLE
Unless the people themselves take
this step, the attorney general said. the
nation cannot expect to have anything
but discomfort and disorder.
Mr.. Palmer urged that the country
vigorously support some Of the new
proposed LEGISLATION which would place
the strong arm of the federal govern
ment over powerful corporations"
He spoke of the proposed licensing
of institutions doing an interstate
business and the pending bills proVid-
ing for marking production costs on
package goods. Ii the production costs
were known, he said, the American
trait of being stubborn will end lot
of gouging, for few of us will be
driven into anything"
why, if we could make labor under
stand it, IL we could make money sun-
derstand it, make everybody under
stand it on both sides OF the economic
fence that idleness is a sin, II not
crime" said Mr.. Palmer, and get
money and labor, both, to working
every day, giving an honest days labor
for an honest days wage, for only six
months, everyone of these problems
would be solved because our people
would be busy and being busy, they
would be happy. Disorder would dis
appear because it cannot live except
in idleness and the discomfort and I'M
rest that follows as result of idle
ness. We must put our shoulders to
the wheel to increase production. ard
we can at the same time put our
shoulders to the wheel to decrease the
demand"

NO CHANGE IN POLICY

Before leaving Washington tonight
for indianapolis, Assistant Attorney
General Ames, in charge of the govern
ments case, declared there was no
change in it's policy toward the strike
and that he would endeavor to obtain
a renewal of it's temporary injunction.
Reports from agents of the depart
ment Of jussice and from miners AMI
operators showed little overnight
change in conditions. except that opera
tors claimed A. union mines in opera
ton in West Virginia "a gain of 80 ovsr
last Saturday. Officers of the American
Federation oe Labor and representa-
tives Of the miners denied these reports
and asserted their own advices showed
no crumblirg of union forces anywhere
in the bituminous regions.
There were rumors. apparently emanat-
ing from high sources. that the injunc-
ton hearing set for Saturday might go
over one week without prejudice to either
side. Equally persistent were reports that
Samuel Gompers. president of the Ameri-
can Federation OF Labor, would make a
personal appeal to Attorney General
Palmer tomorrow for withdrawal of the
restraining order and all court proceed
ings on assurance that if this were done
the strike could be settled and the men
put back to work in the mines in Is
hours. MIR. Palmer was out of the city
but the statement by Judge Ames that
the government would not compromise

How much are these stones?"
asked Tinker. Just then one of the
servants pressed button and two
great doors swung open and he saw
a big furnace. In the midst of the
furnace were bushels and bushels of
stones.
"This is where the stones are
burned and tried out to see that
my servants have written the right
directions in the big books" said
the Little OLD Man.
Tinker watched with interest the
peculiar servants taking the stones
out of the fiery furnace. They put
the stones in large iron buckets and
carried them away. While he
watched the servants the Little Uld
Man slipped quietly away and re-
turned with a handful of stones.

Tinker Bob took the seven stones,
held them a moment in his hands,
bordering over the strangfe things
the Little Old Man had said. Then,
being anxious to know the story of
the stones, he selected a glossy green
one and tapped it lightly against
the gray one, and suddenly he was on
his way to the story land of the
Green Stone.
