no doubt of the significance of his
words: He sought to bring, and sue

the suggestion that because these two
eminent scientists and world leaders,
honored by many cities, and whom any
community would have felt itself hon

the Mayor, although they we're Jews,
that act on his part should be consid-

Every self-respecting Jew will deep

Make the address plain and easily read and always use pen and ink or typewriter and light col ored envelopes. so as to save the eyes of the post office clerks Do mot use envelopes of unusual size. The little ones that are so frequently used for cards and notes at Christmas and other holiday times cause an untold amount of trouble and labor, as they will not fit our cance1ling machines and must therefore be cancelled by hand, Because of their size and ten dency to slip out of a package, these small envelopes are more likely to be overlooked or lost

STAMFORD
 WILL STAGE
 HARD FIGHT

Being determined to 1e1 the Public Utilities Commission know the true feeling of StratfOrd riders of the Con necticut company, s ratford residents who must ride the yellow cars or walk, since the jttneys have been re- moved, the Stratf0rd Chamber of Commerce, less than a year old, has started a thorough canvass of the town that will allow every resident of Stratford in lerested, to go on record regarding the present muddle in the traffic situation, which has benefited no Stratford people, and caused an additional hardship to many in the way Of increased fare to and from the place of employment.
 After cOmmunica ion with the Pub lie Utilities commission the Stratford body was given until Wednesday to place the case before the commission. Ten thousand cards were prepared. They were dis ributed at the churches yesterday, and at the schools Mon day. In addition many stores will have them throughout the town and if Strasford is to have recognition and cards and help to make the protes< felt.
 The several questions on the cards will be simple and to the point. The basis of the protest will be to en- deavor to obtain transfer privileges to those compelled to pay a 10 cent fare, if the five cent limit cannot be extended to Paradise Green and
 
 wise be made for a five cent fare for short hauls within the limits of Strat- ford. Stratford merchants in the center are beginning to realize that 1t Is as cheap to ride to Bridgeport as it is to Stratford Center. all of which is working to the injury of Stratford business houses.
 With all the tangled fare system and service Stratford riders occasion ally get a laugh out of the situation. One smile was given a number of passengers early yesterday afternoon when 8 Derby car refused a number of passengers. Because this is an ex- press car to the city line, while the same car stopped four times between the railroad station and city line to allow motormen and conductors, go- Ing off duty, to alight. To many lTv- ing on Stratford avenue who used to be able to get additional service from the Derby cars, the "eXpress" opera ton of these cars appears a needless joke. for the cars always catch up with locals and have to "drag" to Paradise Green Or the center. which ever the case may be.
 The Stratford Chamber of Com merce intends to stage a hard fight. The feeling is that conditions and serivce cannot be any worse, and that a unified protest may bring re- suits favorable to Stratford.

MAN N NATURE.

Arthur Brisbane. whose brilliantly written editori-
ais are read by millions. in commenting on how much
faster a man can fly from Chicago to Washington than
a carrier pigeon, concludes with this rather startling
statement Man is boss, nature his servant
The expression Is a splendid example Of q half
truth which needs analysis before full acceptance.
Nature is boss Of the fundamentals and when these
laws are violated by man. man pays the bill.
Nature permits man to harness It's waters for the
generation of power for a multiplicity Of uses. But
unless man uses natures laws IN arranging the har-
ness and in use OF the power. nature becomes boss
and man it's victim.
The recent disaster to the great dirigible in Eng
land is substantial proof OF this fact. Nature will per-
nit man to navigate the air provided certain laws
ara followed but when man seeks TO trick nature by
sacrificing certain laws insuring strength to take
advantage of certain laws providing speed the result
Is disaster. Endless examples prove this point.
1t is well to realize the tremendous opportunities
nature has pTofered man for his own well being, but
1t is better to recognize that in the last tumble OF the
conflict nature lands on top and has the final word.

COST OF COAL PRODUCTION.

Ant6raClte coal prO0uCers IN the SChuyIklII re-
gion OF Pennsylvania have recently submitted TO the
Federal Trade Commission some facts concerning the
relative costs of producing coal now and in 1915. The
figures apply only TO anthracite coal-the kind ordin.
arily used in the heating stoves of households. The
figures show that the total cost of a ton at the. mine
in 1921 is 1854 as compared with 81 AZ in 1914. or
an increase of about 1873 per cent. The cost OF ma
terials consumed in producing a ton OF coal has ad-
vanced from 80 cents per ton to s1.04 per ton while
the cost OF miners wages has increased from 80 cents
to 1874. The other items of increase were chiefly
in labor other than miners wages. such as cost Of
tunneling, labor after the coal has been mined. taxes
and administration. The figures also show that the
ton of coal produced at a cost of $3.50 was sold for
SAL. or a profit CT 7 cents.

That information makes 4 pretty good showing in
defense of the coal producer. Few will assert that
he is making an unreasonable profit. But the general
public would be pleased to see a statement from deal
es who handle that ton of coal after it leaves the
possession of the mine operator and before it gets to
the bins of the consumer.
