COAL SHIPPING

Be Provided.
Preferential Eastern Or

Been Modified to Aid
Other Sections.

Washington, July a.-Widely di-
vergent opinions as to the nations coal
supply were heard by the interstate
commerce commission Friday at its hear
ing on the advisability of modifying its
order requiring that preference be Civ
en- coal mines east of the Mississippi
in the alignment of open top cars. Some
witnesses said the country was exper-
fencing the worst coal shortage in its
history, while others declared there was
no shortage
The commission was asked both TO
modify its order, originally issued for
a 30 day period ending on July u. SO
as not to give so much of monopoly
on cars to the coal mnes, and also to
make the order more drastic and con-
time it for longer than 80 days. There
was no indication by the commission of
its probable action and the hearing will
be continued tomorrow.
Carl Jackson. a member of the Wis
consin railway commission urged that
the commission amend its order so as
to give preference to coal mines having
contracts for coal to supply Wisconsin,
Minnesota. North and South Dakota
and northern Michigan. The movement
of 1000 cars daily to this territory
must be had until November, he as
serted. in order ito save the territory
from freezing"
This coal. he explained must be
brought to Great Lakes ports and hur-
ried to the northwest before closing
of the navigation season.
Agents of public utilities scattered
throughout the eastern half of the
country also asked that preferential
treatment be given in the next few
months. Their contention that coal
shortage existed was the opposite of
the testimony given by George Fl. Cush-
ing of the American Wholesale Coal
association. who said present consump-
ton was equallsug production. Mr..
Gushing expressed the opinion that a
fair price for coal at the mine should
be $3.50 a ton. and John Moore. re
presenting the Ohio miners, added that
with adequate car supply, the cost
would fall to $500 Mr. Moore did not
agree with Mr. Gushing as to the avail

MERCHANT MARINE
ACT RESTORES OLD
8 PER CENT TARIFF
Underwood Bill Fixing Duty on
Alien Vessel Cargoes Will
Be Operative.

Washington, July 9.-By the Associ-
Ated Press )-Operation of the merchant
marine act will bring into force the sec
ton of the Underwood tariff law of 1913
imposing discriminatory duty Of ) per
cent on goods entering the United States
in foreign bottoms, in the opinion of
some diplomats who have studded the
new shipping bill.
Application of this section of the Tn
ierwood act was suspended by a decision
of the supreme court in 1917 because
the act provided that the discriminatory
duty should not apply if in conflict with
any reserved treaty right. The court
held that the action was in conflict with
the provisions Of the treaty Of 1915 bel
tween the United States and Great Bri-
tain.
This treaty along with similar other
treaties with other countries must be-
abrogated under the section imposing the
duty of the merchant marine law.
In the case Of the British treaty one
years notice is necessary and conse-
ouently no discriminatory duty can be
imposed on goods entering the United
States in British bottoms until the ex-i
piration of that period.
Some diplomats believe it was the clear
intent of congress to reserve to itself the
right to impose the discriminatory duties
by future legislation but they declare that
uniess such legislation is enacted before
the treaties are abrogated the five per
cent discriminatory duty imposed by the
Underwood law automatically will come
into force.

great to our nation as the corrupt use
Of money for campaign purposes"
Il was secretary of the treasury for
six years and know the harm that is
Gone by the misuse Of money in this
way" he said. Il am not talking about
Republicans alone, but Democrats as
well. for they all look alike to me when
they are guilty Of spending money in
the manner indicated
Mr.. McAdoo declared campaign con-
tributors would seek their reward in var
ious ways. one Of which was the reduc-
tion Of duty on imports. He pointed out
that fraction If cent reduction would
run into big figures. He said that as
an American citizen seeking nothing,
there were some things about the coming
election he would like to refer to. The
appointment of the senate committee to
campaign expenditures, he
declared. was one of the few intelligent
things the senate ever did
There is one thing America can never
stand for he continued, and that is
the purchase of the presidency of the
United States.
In my opinion the election law should
be changed The expenses for running
the national elections should be paid out
of the national treasury and if this were
done the cost would be infinitely less.
1t would be reduced onefifth The mon
ey should be taken from the national
treasury and the law should prescribe
specifically how the money should be
spent. If such q step were taken, it
would to IA great extent purify our laws.
ut would then be out of the question
to pass laws for crooked politicians who
have to be repaid in some way for the
monies they have advanced for some
candidates expenses.
He urged nationwide presidential
primary at which nominees would be
selected without the aid of political
bosses.
The presidential primaries in various
states during the recent campaign, he
declared, were a disgrace to the nation.

Governor james NJ. Cox. the Demo-
cratic candidate for president. stated
that many requests that he open the
campaign in the west have been received,
and in his talk with newspaper men the
governor left the impression that he. at
least. was interested in the proposition
of early invasion of the west, if not. i'll
fact favorable to it. He stated. however.
that the campaign arrangements are in
the hands of the national committee and
that he would say nothing definite until
he conferred with the committee.
". w Blaine, president of the Corn
Palace. Mitchell, s. D., headed a delega-
ton that called on the governor today
urging him to accept an invitation to
speak at the festival which is from
September 81 to October Z. The Mimi
esota state fair management also has
wired asking him to speak there. Charles
f. Morris the governors private sec
retary, telegraphed from San Francisco
that he was being besiegcd by Califor
MIA delegations urging that the campaign
be opened In that state. Mr.. Morris told
the governor that California Democrats
are certain that they can carry the state
for him.
Considerable interest now is centering
in the conference of the national commit
tee with the governor on July 20. 1t has
not been established whether the meeting
will be held at the governors home at
Trails End. or in Columbus. but thei
governor said he would wire Chairman
Cummings that the plans for the commit
tee meeting here seemed satisfactory to
him The date and place Of holding the
official notification ceremonies are ex-
pected to be determined by the confer
enee. Governor Cox intimated that some
time between August Is and 20 would
be a satisfactory date for the notification.
The fact that Franklin D. Roosevelt
has stopped over for a rest at Glenwood
Springs. Col makes it probable that he
will not reach Ohio for q conference with
his running mate before Monday. In
such case. the governor said, the con-
ference probably will take place in Co
lumbus as he expects to go there on
Monday morning to look after matters
at the executive office.
The date for the civic demonstration
planned by the Dayton chamber OF COM
merce has been changed to July 10.
Governor Cox has given no intimaticn
as to whom he wants for campaign man.
ager 1t is known. however, that many
of his friends are urging the selection OF
E. H. Moore of Youngstown, Ohio. the
governors pre- convention campaign
manager.
Inasmuch as Ohio is to be the chief
battle-ground in the campaign, both can
didates being from the state. some of The
governors friends say it is imperative
that a manager be chosen who is thor
oughly acquainted with political condi-
tions in the state. They admit that
Homer S Cummings, chairman of the
national committee. would be good man
for the job. but because of the expected
battle in the Buckeye state, they feel
that Mr.. Moore is the logical man.
