For the first time in 40 years there

five Sundays in February recurs once in

that 1900 was not a leap year, the cal

As most school children know. the
year 1900 was not a leap year. Those
who invented our present system OF

ding one day in every four years was
a fraction too much. so the plan was
hit upon to make century years de
visable by 400 only leap years. This

terstate commerce is coal.
Likewise Us continuous and uninterrupted flow TO
the Industries dependent upon It for fuel Is the most
important duty with which the railroads OF the country
charged
The vital necessity for furnishing each mine with
sufficient cars to for It's output is recognized In
the railroad reorganization bills now before confer
committee OF Congress.
BY Tar the most comprehensive provisions covering
car service coal mines 10 be found In the senate
bill
In that measure the subject is into with great
particularly, special effort being made to remove all
sources OF discrimination between mines In the num-
bers Of cars furnished during a car shortage.
Both the House and Senate bills make II incumbent
upon carriers TO establish ratings for coal mines located
upon their lines and in periods Of car shortage the cars
furnished mine shall counted against the dstributve
share OF the mine receiving them.
But the Senate measure goes a step further, and
prohiblts carrier from furnishing mine with more
than ITS proportlonae share OF during such period
The Senate bill also adds clarity to the requirement
nv stimulating that the proportionate distribution OF
cars shall be accomplished during successive foureen-day
perlods which may be designated from time to time by
the carrier.
The House BILL in its mine service provisions
makes no exception in favor OF coal destined Tor use a
fuel in the movement OF trains.
The Senate measure on the other hand, recognizes
the imperative necessity OF keeping our transportation
system in motion at the cost Of denying coal TO oher
less important industries.
To that end the Transportation Board. created by the
Senate is given authority to permit carriers to omit 10
their coal car counts such TO be loaded with
coal for locomotive fuel.
such omissions however. to be only TO the extent
fixed by the board.
In the House penalty Of 500 is provided
for the failure refusal Of carrier to count car
against mine.
The Senate bill is much more specific in the matter
OF penalties and nne OF from 500 TO $500 Tor
each failure to count car and also for each car delV-
cred to Of It's proporonate share during
a period Of shortage
In the coal shortage periods from which the country
has suffered in years particularly in the severe
winter Of i97-i9s of the greatest factors has been
the unequal distribution of cars.
That was true also last summer, when shortage
OF coal for this winter predicted and everybody was
urged to lay in early supply.
The mine operators insisted that It was not their
fault that more coal forthcoming and laid the
blame at the door of the DirectorGeneral Of Railroads
for not furnishing more
There can be little doubt that if there had been
farer distribution OF available transportation among the
mines the situation would have been greatly relieved
But no penalty attached to anybody, and negligence
resulted
With the teeth provided by the Senate bill in the
shape OF substantial It is believed that the dstribu-
ton Of coal in the future will be dependable and con
tinuous.

Il must be clear 10 them that In view OF the pubic
feeling that has been aroused by the escapes Of Price
and the report Of The Grand Jury that something OF
radical nature must be done.
The report Of the Grand Jury certainly points the
way for board action along many definite lines and no
time should be lost in taking up those things and dspos-
ing OF them no matter whether such disposition may
