THE couNTRY.s COAL SUPPLY
By J. E. Jones

The continuing depletion of coal
at the mines and the inability of the
railroads to fully supply the coal
manes with cars, has been causing a
great deal of concern in Washington
and the old champions of govern
ment ownership" ideas have been
i'm evidence trying to show that the
railroads under private ownership
are not operating to their greatest
efficiency. They are even crying
out again for government operation
of the coal mines.
There is no use ignoring the fact
that the Government did not sup
ply new equipment for the railroads
when the Railroad Administration
was in charge; and it also should
not be forgotten that for the past
five years the railroads have been
so upset by political interference
that investments in this class of
securities slowed down, and new de-
velopment came to a standstill.
Handicapped on every side, the
Commission on Car Service of the
American Railroad Association with

country in fighting against a coal
famine.

STOPPED PRODUCTION
WASTES

The present Congress was called
upon to reconstruct the nations
businessye Representative Simeon D.
Fees. of Ohio stated in the House
of Representatives before adjourn
ment. Extravaganza in war and
many other elements have embar-
rassed the country with the high
cost of verything in a falling off of
pfoductionI due to different causes
and administration of laws. We
attempted to make possible increas-
ed production. This Congress pass
ed the water-power bill designed to
utilize the waste of nature when
the world suffers from lack of pro-
duction. You cannot reduce the cost
of living until you increase produc-
tion and increase the efficiency of the
producers. Instead of this Congress
talking demagogy for political pur-
poses, it goes straight to the center
of the difficulty and proposes to
utilize the waste in production that
otherwise would not be utilized. 1t
took a Republican Congress to do
what a Democratic Congress had
been unable to do in the 10 years
that party controlled this House, be-
ginning with 1910.

LOSS OF APPETITE

AS a general rule there is nothing
serious about a loss of appetite, and
if you skip meal or only eat two
meals a day for a few days you
will soon have relish for your meals
when meal time comes. Bear IN
mind that at least five hours should
always elapse between meals SO as
to give the food ample time to digest
and the stomach a period of rest be-
fore a second meal is taken. Then
if you eat no more than you crave
End take a reasonable amount of
outdoor exercise every day you will
not need to worry about ycur appe-
- VIXEN Tho loss of appetite is
caused by constipation as is often
the case that should be corrected at
cnce. A do9n Of Chamberlain s
Tablets will do it.

BURLESON'S REVENUE

Abuse of. authority by Postmaster
Genral Burleson has resulted in an
investigation into the discharge of
a Post Office Department official
because he offered testimony before
a Senate committee regarding al
legged insanitary conditions in a
mailbag repair shop in Washington
d. G. The investigation will be
made by the reclassifcation com
of the civil service. Mr.. Ed
ward Heating. secretary of the re-
commission, states that
the testimony offered by Mr.. Stewart
3. Blassingham, the discharged en-
ploye. was not presented as per-
sonally obtained but merely as evil
dence from other employees. It is
unfortunate that the Postmaster
General took such action, said Mr..
Keattng, as I am afraid it will serve
to intimidate Government employees
who are called on in the future to
testify before Investigating COM
mittees. When the commission com
pletes its envestia aation khe matter
will be brought to the attention of
Congress.
