COAL PRICES TO
BE INVESTIGATED
Attorney General Issues Instruc-
tions For Inquiry and Asks
Indictment of Operators For
Making Excessive Profits.

Attorney General A. Mitchell Palm
er issued instructions last weeks to
the district attorneys having juris-
diction in the soft coal district to be-
gin an investigation at once into the
coal business with view of finding
out the reason for the high prices of
coal now prevailing in the district.
The federal trade commissions re-
cent report on the cost of manufac-
ture has been furnished the federal
officers for guidance. In number
of instances the Attorne General has
stated that operators are charging
rs high as $500 a ton for coal at the
mines, which is believed to be an cx-
cessive profit over the cost of min
ing.
The coal consumers are awaiting
the result Of this move on the part
of the Government with no little in
terest.

INTERCHURCH WORLD MOVE
MENT EXPLAINED.

Rev. James Buchanan, representa-
tive of the Interchurch World Move
ment, gave an interesting lecture, il
lustrated by number Of pictures, in
the Presbyterian church Monday ev-
ening to q small audience. The OBJ
ject of the lecture was to explain
and set forth the aims and propos-
ed program of the movement, of
which we had heard much and knew
little.
In brief the lecturer set out that
the movement is entirely advisory. A
survey of world conditions, which has
been made by the officers of the move
ment, will be laid before the differ
ent denominations, and what to do,
if anything, will be left entirely to
the different churches to decide. The
fact was emphasized that it is not
the intention of the movement, and
never has been to interfere or die
tate to the churches in any manner
whatsoever, but only to suggest and
recommend a get-to-gether- cooper
ative program. in an endeavor to do
unitedly what seems cannot be done
acting separately, as heretofore. To
this end, survey of worldwide con-
ditions has been made and tabulated
and is being laid before the people.
in maps, pictures, lectures, etc.
The sum of $8,000,000 has been
subscribed by participating denomi-
nations in the north, embracing the
Presbyterians, Baptists, Methodists,
Disciples, and perhaps one other de-
nomination. This sum was guaran-
teed by these denominations for the
purpose of paying the expenses of
the survey. No Southern church has
entered the movement, the Southern
Baptists having declined to partici-
pate. Whether the Southern Method
lists and Presbyterians and other will
come in or not will be decided when
their official boards meet.
As to the facts brought out by Mr..
Buchanan in his lecture, maps, fig
ures, etc., it was shown that in many
parts of the world there is unbeliev-
able religious destitution. In many
sections of our own country there is
much overlapping of fields, involving
a great loss of time and money, while
in other sections there is great des-
titution. However, it was noted by
some who heard the lecture, that the
facts and figures shown have been
known to the people for years. All
the facts about the foreign fields,
their great needs, as well as the
facts about Virginia and the entire
country, in fact. are brought out in
religious weeklies, in reports and ad-
dresses before the State and County
associations and conventions every
year. Mr.. Buchanan made good
missionary lecture, home and for
eign, but the expenditure of the vas,
sum Of $8,000,000 to secure informa.
tion already shown seemed to some
present entirely unnecessary, result.
ing, il the movement goes no furth.
er, only in giving a number of mer
jobs, but Of incalculable value will
this information be as a working
basis if the denominations are inter.
ested.. The question is, what will the
preachers and churches do about it
