L. S. Opens Nationwide
War ON Coal Profteers
Action Follows Many Complaints
of Unreasonable Prices at
BituminOus Mines

From Tho Triburo'8 WASHINGTON B,,-er.
WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE De-
partmcnt OF Justice to-day sent in
structions to district attorneys through
out the country to give attention to re
ported protiteering in btuminoua coz!
and to prosecute where investigation
discloses unreasonable profits have
been taken.
This action followed the recent Of
numerous complaints that the price of
bituminous coal a. the miuea rang =
from 81 to $ll ton, an exorbitant
figure and that further increases are
imminent. Operators, according 10 the
departments information, blanc the
increases on export demand and the
shortage of cars.
Legal action would be started undcr
the Lever act, which prohibits unrea-
sonablc profits in coal and other ncccs-
saries.
The letter to district attorneys added:
Production cost figures gathered by
the Federal Trade Commission from
1880 bituminous coal operators in the
roughly about 60 per cent of the an.
nual output show that durins Jauil-
nry, 1920, their costs per ton averaged
$232 at the mines. Since then there
has been an increase Of 27 per cent in
the cost Of labor, enhancing the pro-
ducton cost to $2.79 a ton.
"Thc accuracy of these figures is
borne out by information in letters
coming TO tho department from Nur-
chascrs OF coal, from which it appears
that prices in May did not greatly ex-
coed those furnished to the Federal
Trndo Commission for January"

GIVE LAD ANOTHER CHANCE
Negro Boy Took $125 From Campbell S
Drug Store-Forgiven.

Two hours after $125 in cash and
checks had been stolen from a drawer
in a safe in the rear of the 7. ".
Campbell drug store, 704 Kansas
avenue, a 14-year-old negro boy en-
ployed in the store was arrested and
confessed to the theft, according to the
police.
Because the boy pleaded so hard to
be given another opportunity to make
good and on account of the fact that
he had an aged grandmother to sup
port, Campbell refused to prosecute,
and today the lad is working at the
store.
The boy told police officers he took
the drawer from the safe early Mon
day evening and hid it in the rear of
the store building. Then his con-
science began hurting him, he told the
police, and he tried three times to skip
outside, get the drawer and replace it.
Then the theft was discovered and
the lads arrest followed.
