assumption that production can be main

campaign here. The temporary struc-

Harold Arons, chairman OF The Young

porch from Mrs. Livermore, dedicating

campaign. Ogden l.. Mills made the

1--WE are confronted throughout the
West with the fact that our summer
flow Of water Is now practically all I'M

We cannot further substantially expand
irrigation of land available for such
cultivation unless we can increase the
minimum flow of water. This problem Is
problem of winter storage on q scale
that we have not hitherto dreamed Of.
Again, within the essential limitations
that we must place on individuals in the
control OF profits, we have to evolve some
method of Federal cooperation to secure
the expansion of this vital tool of pro-
duction.

OF the result of these forces than In tine
present condition of our transportation
system. During the heavy movement
season there is scarcely part OF the
country where the railways are able to
move our total production. where our
producers are not suffering from the
immovabie gluts and where our con-
sumers are not suffering from the short
age in delivery. 1t affects our farmers
our manufacturers 1t affects our work
people. Our transportation system Is
not equal to the movement Of the COM
modities that we require II we are to
maintain our standard OF living.
"Nor does this problem alone plague
as in the expansion of our railway trans
portation--the first step of which was
taken by the last Congress. l may cite
another instance Of another category.
Our laws against combination, which
are entirely justified and must be main
tanned, have contributed to produce and
prevent remedy of a growing disability
In another great industry. / refer to
the bituminous coal industry in the
Eastern States. Owing to seasonal and
other irregularities of demand the aver
age term of work in the bituminous
industry Is less than 100 days per
annum. II this industry could be oper-
ated on a normal work year of say 30C
other production. 1t is an industry in
which 80 per cent more capital is in
vested than would otherwise be neces-
sary. The cost of coal to the consumer
and the risk to the operator are greatly
increased.
above all, 1t presents a great human
problem, fraught with all the misery OF
strikes and justified discomfort that flow
from intermittent employment. This
was really the foundation of our late
disastrous strike. This intermittency
could be largely cured by cooperative
action OF the great consumers. by CO.
operative action among the coal oper-
ators, by the development OF great cleo
trical power production at certain strs-
tegic points, by the cooperation of the
workmen. We must insist on the neces-
sary social view of the prohibition of
combination, but II we insist upon this
view there must be some national plan
to secure this cooperation to the common
good. 1t does not lie in naturalization.
II does lie in some manner of coopera-
ton of the Government to effecting these
solutions.
Plea for More Cooperetion.
Beyond such cases of immediate
sitting OF our national progress we have
many cases where great works have not
yet been born because of the immense
difficulties of our negative legislation.

THE PASSING OF PETERS

Neither the Prohibition Depart

was spared by those who advocated
the ousting Of Rev. j. Sidney Peters,
Prohibition Commissioner at the
Joint session of :: the Legislature
Thursday.
Major E. II. Gibson, of Culpeper,
was particularly denunciatory OF the
department, its chief officer and
everything pertaining thereto.

fore the House Committee on Moral

with his request to have the resoln7

he said. TO, the committee, unfair to

Major Gibson did not believe the
opinion of the Attorney General that

outside counsel to defend its agents

living at anything else"
IF Smith were elected, he said, that
would be the end of it. He wouldn't
