ACTION is NEEDED ON COAL SUPPLY.

" For the last three or four years the retail coal
dealers of the northwest have been at their WITS
end to know how best to take care OF the needs Of
their customers. During the federal fuel admin
istration tons Of literature were sent out ADVISING
the people to place their orders with their dealers
for the winter supply and get it IN during tne
summer SO that there would not be q rush at
the last moment, when the cold weather came, TO
fill every consumers bin at once. Notwithstanding
this very excellent advice conditions were sucn
that the dealers could not get any coal during the
summer months to fill their customers orders Inc
consumers followed the advice Of the government
fuel administration and placed their orders with
the retail dealers The retail dealers in turn placed
their orders with the wholesalers and they with the
operators and there the trouble started The result
was that very little coal actually got on TO the
head of the lakes docks until late in the fa eltner
because Of longshoremen strikes or shortage OF cars.
This condition for reason or another mas pre-
vailed for at least three winters and it bids falr
to be as bad or worse this fall.
Opinions differ widely at this time as to the
reason coal is not coming to the docks at Dulutn
and SUPERIOR One investigator states the eastern
manufacturers are boarding coal at their pants
much beyond their requirements. Another states
between seven and eight thousand cars Of coal are
standing in Atlantic coast cities waiting for ton
mage SPACE on ocean. boats to be unloaded ana
sent across to Europe thus trying UP available cars
Still others, who claim to have investigated the
conditions aver that there is shortage OF coal at
the mines and that the operators are not mining
nearly the quantities of coal they did in previous
years. r" ~ ,sl%s.{ <tEjy :, im{.,4r.,N
One thing is certain, coal is not coming up the
lakes in anything like sufficient quantities to insure
an adequate supply for the coming winter IN tne
northwest, and another thing seems certain tna'
someone must be given the power to see that the
situation is remedied, and at once. Il the pest
,.av "a do this is by federal officer who shall pc
,eiven full authority over the shipments OF coai
from the mines and the requisitonlng q
cars to carry the coal to its destination then oy
al means let US have one appointed Immediately
investigations will not get much coal into our bins
for winter. 1t seems strange that coal may be
obtained for export to Europe and Americas re-
ouirements go UNDECIDED. .. Ls~,,@.. =.

THE CONTENTION BETWEEN
PRESIDENT WILSON AND
UNITED STATES SENATORS

The ratification of Article 10 of the
League of Nations Treaty by the
senate without reservations would
| have the effect of depriving congress
of it's constitutional power to decide
when, and against what nation the
United States shall go to war, and
giving it to officers of the league OF
nations.
President Wilson contends that Ar
ticle 10 shall be retained without res
ervati6ns that alter it's meaning. And
United States senators contend that
lit shall not be ratified without such
reservations as shall reserve, to con-
gress its constitutional power to decide
when and against what nations the
United States shall go to war
/ 1t has been suggested that the peo-
pie shall decide this contention at the
polls. But it cannot be legitimately
decided in this way.
Because both President Wilson and
our United States senators have taken
an oath TO obey the will of the people
as expressed in our federal constitu-
ton. And in this instrument the peo-
pie have conferred upon congress the
power and duty of deciding when and
against what nations the United States
shall go to war.

Pensacola, Fla, Feb 4, 1920.
In reference to the statement of the
president of the Chamber of Commerce
that the belt line and municipal docks
should not be built because the city
was bankrupt. 1 would like to sug
gest that no project could be carried
through that were an obstacle, as ac-
cording to London Statist, a financial
paper, the whole world is bankrupt.
AS they state in an analysis of the cur
rency initiation of the world, the face
value of the paper currency issued dur
ing the war is greater than the value
of all the gold and silver produced in
the world since the discovery of
America.
On a gold standard this is certainly
a world bankruptcy. Yet we will con-
hnue to finance projects 1 suppose.
And certainly the municipal docks are
more important to our future growth
as city than any other now contem-
plated. We will simply be off the map
without them. Taxes are hard to pay,
yet for that purpose any one with any
pride in their city in commercial
way, ought willing to shoulder the in
crease. Now is the time to do really
work as q seaport.

The Right Kind of Subsidy.

Some years ago heard little else but the de-
mand for subsidy to American shfpowners. so we
could have our flag in the ports of the world
Generally speaking, subsidy" in that day and
time figured out to be q handsome of money
turned to favorte. while the little fellow, or
the fayorite's competitor, deprived of any help
and left to die. So the word subsidy" got to be
about as much loved by Americans as the word
propaganda is today.
The government is now proposing to do something
TO help re-esablish the American shipping COM
merce-that is, if it had any to speak Of 1t is
very anxious to have the ships held and owned by
the government go into the hands of those who will
develop lines to ports away. and will build up a
great carrying trade in freight and passengers
It has the way presented to do this Sell the ships
that to be sold to Americans first at price that
will make it possible for all to buy. Despite the gen.
eral belief in Washington that every American is
today walking bank-vault. there still some very
alive and good business men who are not able to
pay in millions for ships Who if given opportunity
to pay in thousands, would build up lines and
develop business that would astonish the govern
ment itself.
We do not know about the figures mentioned by
Frank C. Munson. of the Munson Steamship Line
but we do know he is the right track when he
tells the senate commerce committee. shipping board
prices on vessels built during and since the war are
too high to allow American operators to compete
with foreign craft He states that Great Britain is
selling its government ships at SI25 ton Our ship
ping board is wanting $500 and 1925 per ton. Mr.
Munson declares that 800 per ton should be the
figure, so that small operators get into the field
and help build up the merchant marine
lie Is right. The subsidy needed today for Ameri-
can merchant marine is ability to buy from the gov
eminent, in preference to all outsiders ships at a
price that will let the little in-Tampa Tribune

Sixteen-FOot Roads For Florida.

The state road department has adopted wise
course in deciding in favor Of sixteen-foot per-
manent road building instead of the proposed nine
foot policy. The Metropolis last week suggested the
ACCESSIBILITY of building the highways with
width of sixteen feet. believing that this would re-
suit in greater satisfaction for all concerned for the
present and future. 70 build nine-foot roads is to
only build inadequate roads and while they serve to
help the situation some. they prove constant
of trouble and inconvenience to the travelling hubble
The siXteenfoot road is the least width which should
be permitted on any state constructed highway and
the Metropolis wishes to express it's compliments to
the state highway department for taking this broad
view OF the situation. John z. Gilbert member Of
the commission from Jacksonville deserves credit for
assisting in putting the policy of wide road as
