J. u. A. Morrow, Director Of Dis
tribution Of the Fuel Administration,
IL another authority who sees ser
ious shortage in labor. In recent
address before the annual convention
Of the National Coal Association, Mr..
Morrow says:
Careful compilation OF figures
has shown us that within the next
year we will lose 10000 immigrants
who have been experiencing high
wages and have been saving the mon
ey for a return to their home lands.
The tide has already turned back to
Europe and people are leaving as fast
as they can obtain passports.
THE mines gave up 100000 men
to the army and navy, and these
men will never return to the mines.
They have progressed. They have led
an outdoor life. They have seen
Paris and London. They have trav-
eled and will never be satisfied with
small mining towns. They will seek
work in the large cities.
Meanwhile there has been no inn
migration upon which the mining in
dustry depends for men. The labor
movement is thru the mines, which
are fed in from the bottom with the
crudest Of unskilled LAHORE Miners
progress and leave the coal holes or
their sons progress and get into other
industries.
1--WE face one Of the most serious
shortages of labor in the whole his
tory of mining. Coupled with that
is the decreased output Of mines,
which during the past calendar year
are short 100000 tons in compar-
ison with the preceding calendar year.
There are few orders at the mines,
not only because Of the shutting of
war industry plants. but also from the
indifference of the consumers, who
believe that they can get coal at any
time and consequently are not laying
in stock of coal. In ninety days
there will be an awakening and a
clamor for coal, and the people will
not be able to get it. My advice to
the public is to buy coal while there
is still an opportunity"
Irving Fisher, Professor Of Econo-
my at Yale University, recognized as
one Of the nations authorities, says
he can see no hope for lower prices.

Col. Arthur Woods. Assistant Ia

fore the National Association OF
Manufacturers in New York May 81,
warned the nation Of the impending
labor shortage and says:

Dor fully realize the wisdom Of TAX
ing out insurance against labor short

Dor at the present time, the natural
conditions point to an impending Ia
Dor shortage the moment industry
finds itself and goes back to peace

but one that is easily susceptible OF
demonstration.
Col Woods, in an interview, also
says that miners are idle today and
have been for many months. Other
industries where labor has been n
serious situation for some time has
attracted these. The loss to the coal
industry is Unreasonable because few
of those will return to the less salts
factory environments Of underground
work, with its accompanying annual
uncertainty Of steady employment.
Opinions Of Well Informed Industrial

George B. Reynolds, president of

institutions in the country, recently

RUSSIANS BURN
 WIGS FOR LIGHT

With the American Forces on Dwina--The shortage in kerosene and candles in Northern Russia has brought into use once more primi- tive lighting arrangement known as the ''svetila", an arrangement to burn birch twigs.
 The ''svetilas" have been resur- rected from some ancient storing place in the log houses of the will lages and are now lighting many of them. The arrangement con- sists of wooden trough, about two feet long, with an iron pan to catch the ashes from the burn ing birch twigs, which are placed in fork like arrangement so that they slant downward and burn easily.
 Each twig, or "lutchnka" burns about five minutes, with about as much light as candle and much more smoke. The members of the family take turns feeding it.
 The "svetila" is but one sample of the resort to old customs oc- casioned by the general shortage of almost every imported commodity in the villages along the Dwina river. The peasant women are again generally employing the "pre- elka", primitive wooden loom on which they card and weave flax for their garments. The result is cloth, both of coarse and fine va rieties, and not at all bad looking.

the war that, in the opinion of a special representative of the British press as Constantnople, it passes comprehension how people managed to live Writing from Constan- tinople, he says:
 "There is no doubt that Turkey during the war was largely the plaything of Enver Pasha, Talaat Pasha, and their band of satellites. They reduced the country to a state of wholesale corruption remarkable for Turkey, and in amassing riches themselves allowed economic con ditions to become a nightmare.
 Nowhere else in the whole area of the war have the prices of com modities approached anything like the heights known here. The right to use railway wagon was sold for el,000 The profiteer who se- cured it bought, say, sugar from Austria or Germany at a shilling or so a pound, and sold it at two or three hundred times it's value making f50,000 or more on a single of modest dimensions"

 Friends of the former Emperor Charles assert that all the sins of the Hapsburgs have been visited upon his head and that he has been blamed for all the grating in the army, although the aristocrats de- clare that the grating generals weer principally those without titles. They admitted, however, there were a few exceptions in which corrupt nobility profited by the war It is asserted by the friends of Charles, the last emperor, that while the old emperor never was permitted to get in touch with the people, Charles immediately got rid of the "old crowd" and did his best to intro- duce new men and to ste the war.

DUAL MONARCHY FACES PROBLEM
 CASH DIVISIONS

VIENNA.-Pending an investi- gation by Parliament of the dis position of the imperial funds, the p position of the former Emperor Charles and the erstwhile imperial family continues to be a painful one, though not dangerous unless the situation should lead to dis orders. In that event the family possibly may travel to Switzerland or elsewhere
 The Socialist papers continue free ly to attack the former emperor, archdukes and aristocracy, claiming that the latter did not do their duty during the war There is much critical and frivolous gossip con- corning the former Empress Zita.
 The secret file of the old Elm peror Francis Joseph is being ex- amined. His fortune is variously estimated at from 30,OOO,0OO to 200,000,000 crowns. According to one report the old emperor divided 60,000,000 crowns between his two daughters Gisela and Valerie and his granddaughter, the Princess Windischgraetz, with other large sums of the imperial funds from which donations were made to churches, pensions and the royal poor. Although Charles, officially is the dispenser of these funds, it is stated that in reality it is hand led by the bank directors.
 Ekertsau castle, where the former emperor is now living does not be- long to him, but is the property of the state together with other large estates and also the famous col lection of jewels in Hofburg castle dHOHS WHICH IS the Y lOfenClnd diamond, called the fourth largest in the world, and also a wonderful necklace. It is expected that this property will be distributed among the various republics of the former empire when the accounts are set tied among them, It will be nec- essary also to divide up the vast and wonderful treasures, the master pieces of art, paintings, antiquities and vases centered in Vienna, for merly crown property or in the state museums or other museums or lib- raries. These are believed to be worth several billions of francs.
 The disposal of these treasures is expected to be difficult task and to be fraught with disaster to Vienna since her whole future ex- istence is believed to depend upon her ability to make herself a center of attraction for visitors, tourists,
