sALooNKEEPER NOT TREATED
FAIRLY.
William Jennings Bryan tells this
story:
"A farmer told me that soon after
he moved from the country into little
town man came to him and wanted
him to sign petition for a saloon in
his town and he said: No, l won't
sign it, and the man said, Why? He
said, Because they don't treat the sa-
loonkeeper fairly Now this applicant
for license had had many objections
made to signing a petition. but never
had one of this kind been made before.
and so he said, What do you mean by
thatT Here is the explanation: You
think that your saloon will help the
town, don't your Yes, sir You
think that it will bring business and
improved trade, don't your Yes, sir.
Well now, If that saloon will do what
you say it will do, if it will bring trade
and improve business, and help the
town, they ought to give you bounty
for starting that saloon to help the
town and not make you pay big tax
for helping the town with the saloon
Can you answer the logic of that mans
argumentp

Greenland, the North Sea Fisheries,

England, France, Italy, South
America, North and South Africa,

so Gents Enough for 100
Pounds of Ice. Says Day

The maximum retail price of ice
should be fifty cents hundred pounds,
DR.. Jonathan c. Day, commissioner Of
markets, said yesterday in a report
submitted to City Chamberlain Philip
Berolzheimer, chairman of the Mayors
committee on ice.
In his report Dr. Day sought to
trace the cost of ice production and
distribution. He pointed out that the
cost Of manufacturing a cake of arti-
fetal ice varies from 421a cents to 45
cents a cake, weighing three hundred
pounds The cellar man calls for the
ice himself, DR.. Day said, and sells it
for So a cake or approximately fifty
cents hundred pounds, making one
make as much as $3.50 week, he
charged. No mention is made in the
commissioners report of melting Of
ice, which is said by dealers to be
the greatest factor in it's traffic and
price.
DR.. Day recommended that ice deal
ers and all other retailers be licensed,
either by the Bureau Of Licenses or
the Department of Public Markets. He
suggested that janitors Of apartment
houses purchase large quantities Of ice,
enough for the whole house, at whole
sale rates and sell it at small mar
gin of profit. He gave as an order

Producers Declare Winter
Will Bring Worst Famine
Ever X wn Unless
Mines Are Speeded Up
Delayed Orders Blamed
Industries Holding OFF for
Lower Prices; Reduction
Impossible, Operators Say
NesO York Tribune
Washington Bureau


WASHINGTON, June 2S.-Officers Of
the National Coal Association said to-
day that as the situation now stands
New York City is likely to have to
deal with the worst coal famine in it's
history next winter. 1t will be much
worse, they say: than the harsh expert
ence of the winter of 1917-18, because
it will not be merely g trans portation
and local distribution problem, as it
was then, but will be one of actual
dearth Of coal.
The only possible way of avoiding
desperate condition, the coal men say,
is to secure an immediate stimulation
of coal production. To this end the
association is beginning a general dis
play advertising campaign in the daily
papers, which will seek to arouse con-
sumers to the necessity of placing their
orders for coal Immediately. Factories
and public utilities are holding back
their fuel orders to such an extent that
a general industrial breakdown for
lack OF power is one Of the possibili-
ties that next winter holds in store
Wait for Lower Prices
The failure to place orders is attrib-
uted to general belief that coal. prices
will come down to pre-war levels This,
the coal men say, is an impossibiity
owing to increased wage scales and the
cost of supplies and equipment.
At the present rate Of production
this years output of btuminous coal
will be about what it was in 1910, which
tons. as compared with minimum re-
quirements.
Up to June 21 the production of
btuminous coal was $4,000, 900 tons
less than last year, and OF anthracite
about 100000 less. The weekly Out-
put fsoft coal, according to Geoogi-
cal Survey figures, is running some
what under 100000 tons, whereas it
should be II 900, 900 to meet estimated
requirements.
The producers say that ultimately
the orders will have to be placed, but
they are profoundly worried over the
question of whether it will be possible
to make up by feverish activity later in
the year for the scant production now.
They fear that even now, with a full
quota of orders, the best that can be
done is to reduce the degree of dis
tress next winter.
Working Forces Depleted
Owing to the long period in which
the mines have worked at reduced ca
pacity the working forces have been de-
pleted, to say nothing of the fact that
about 20 per cent of the alien miners
arem returning to Europe. Notwith-
standing the slackness of demand
some mines have, therefore, already
discovered that they have oversold their
production for the rest Of the year.
Further, it is stated. that when the
inevitable requirements do begin to as
sert themselves, transportation condi-
tlons, owing to the enormous crops
that are being harvested, will be such
that there will be a shortage of cars
at the mines. Transportation condi-
tions will be comparatively favorable
for the next month or two, and that
period will be about the only one in
which there will be an opportunity to
make I'D for lost time
