SAN FRANCISCO, June IS This
convention is not a convention of mil
liant, hungry Democrats, as some
others have been, fighting to break
into the lush governmental pastures
where the payroll grows luxuriantly,
but a convention of sleek, we'll fed,
pleasantly officed Democrats maneu-
vering to stay in that pasture where
they have graZed comfortably for the
past eight years.
1t is we'll to bear that fact in mind
when considering methods and mo-
t1ves and manners-also, when casting
upon results. There has not been a
convention in years more political in
all its aspects than this one, nor one
where the politicians are more effic-
iently active. More over, they are the
same sort of politicians who operated
with such precision in Chicago, and
their performance will be equally
workmanlike once they get it going
The net results are likely to be all
that these experts could wish Out.
wardly, the situation is murky, but
that is because the process of clarifi-
cation is not yet complete. There was
nothing TO this convention but claims
Of press agents and the usual tabby
chatter until Friday night. Then it
began to shake down into somewhat
more tangible shape, but it will be sew
eral days before all the non essentials

AGAINST COAL. men
(By Associated Press)

SCRANTON, Pa, June DISCHARGES
of profiteering and monopolistic con-
troll in the anthracite coal industry
were made before the anthracite coal
commission today by w. Jett Lauck,
former secretary of the war labor
board, and now consulting economist
of the United Mine Workers OF
America
Mr.. Lauck appeared in hearings on
the demands Of the anthracite work
erS for wage increases that will bring
their earnings to a level with those of
the bttuminous workers with mini
mum wage of Sc a day. He said the
data and exhibits he presented were
all derived from and based on official
and authoritative statistics and repre-
sented several weeks work by a staff
of experts.
"A survey of the anthracite in
dustry," said Mr.. Louck. shows an in
crease in net profits of the principal
operators for the period 1916-1918 over
1912-1914 Of nearly 80 per cent as
compared with an increase in produc.
ton during this period of less than II
per cent. In the case of seven rep
resentative mining companies there
was an increase in net profits of 697
per cent.

per cent
Highest Net 3e.e Per Cent
The net income earned by these
companies on their capital stock out
standing during the period l916-191S
ranged from 2o.4 per cent to 36.6 per
cent, as compared with a net income
in 1912-1914 ranging from 142 per
cent to 18.9 per cent
Their combined aggregate output

81. 1918, it should be noted, was ap-
proxtmately 325. 100000 tons or about
56 per cent of all tonnage produced
during that period.
The immense profits reported by
three Of the principal mining COM
panies for 1916-191S are exclusive Of
the earnings OF their separately in
corporated selling departments and
represent only fraction of their act

force but by service. No selfish inter.

And fearless of the coming years.

You would not let me walk alone,

And sought the God l did disown.
