be selling to the employees. Although
this hesitancy was shown, Mr.. Clark
said that the plant was always able
to get coal.
Another reason given by Mr.. Clark
for disseminating the practice OF
selling coal TO the employees was be-
cause the local coal dealers thought
the company was treading On their
toes and ought not TO be going into
the coal business and was interfer-
ing with a business in which they
had no right.
Continuing Mr.. Clark said that a
number of merchants called on him.
He was asked TO repeat their names
and gave the following: John W.
Olsen. c. NJ. Peterson. Frank Dor
sey, Earl Lake. George ]. Haney.
Mr.. Rymsha and Harry Conrad. 4
He said the dealers came TO h&
Office TO see him and said that they
understood the company was selling
coal TO the employees and thought
that was not proper as the plant was
selling at cost and this was unfair
competition and was stepping out
side the copper works sphere Of
business. which was improper and
unfair as the plant was selling be-
low cost. They suggested that we
discontinue the practice" said MI.
Clark"
lie was asked If the dealers had
made any threat a s TO shutting Of
the plants supply of coal If they con-
tinued 10 sell TO the employees and
replied, NO, sir"
Mr.. Clark said he told the dealers
he could see their point and would
decide what could be done in the
matter. After receiving this infor-
nation they left.
The matter was then talked over
with the staff of the plant and as
II was found there was some difficult
~ to get coal it was decided it was
not necessary TO sell coal at that time
10 the men as they were getting good
wages. The practice was discontin-
ued.
IN answer TO a question, Mr.. Clark
said the only objection TO the sale of
the coal to the men had been made
by the coal dealers. He said the
company purchased its coal from the
Lehigh Valley Coal Sales Company
and two other concerns whose names
he could net remember. He said the
plant at the time the practice was
stopped used between 500 and 400
tons of coal a day. He said that p
600 m was the amount supplied
the employees in the course of the
year, and that this RAJ a small
amount when compared with the
large amount of coal received
When the firm had decided not to
supply the coal TO the employees. Mr..
Clark said that he called Mr.. Peter
son of the C NJ. Peterson coal COM
pany to the phone and informed him
of the fact. In supplying the coal
to the employees. Mr. Clark said the
idea was 10 give the employees 4
coal rs cheaply as possible. as the
plant desired TO aid the employees
and had also installed a grocery store
for the men. He said hat these

In sad and loving memory
OF our dear son and brother.
John V. Mischief who left us to Join
The angels three years ago today.
In an evergreen gently sleeping
Where the weeping willows wave
Lies our dear son and brother
In a cold and silent grave.
How we miss you no one knows
But you have left US to remember.
Tha none on earth could take your place
A happy home we once enjoyed
How sweet the memory still
But death has left a lonesomeness
The word can never I'll.
Friends may think we have forgotten
you.
And our wounded hearts are healed,
But they little know the sorrow
That's within our hearts concealed.

Besides beer, regulations permit use
for medicinal purposes of other intoXi-
eating liquors such as ale, porter,
malt extracts and similar fermented
malt liquors containing one-half of
one per cent or more of alcohol by
volume.
Manufacture of those medical prep
arations is confined to duly quail
fled brewers on brewery premises ana
may be sold by t.em only in bottles
and closed cases.
Right to prescribe distilled spirits,
wines and malt liquors for medical
purposes is confined to such physi-
clans as have obtained permits to pre-
scribe intoxicating liquors. Such a
physician, the regulations state, may
prescribe for "a person on whom he
is in attendance, if after physical
examination of such person, or ii ply
steal examination is impracticable,
upon the best information obtainable,
the physician believes that the inter-
nal or external use of liquor as a
medicine by such person is necessary
and will afford relief to him from
some known ailment."

The new regulations, according to
Secretary Mellon, are in accordance
with former Attorney General Palm

Their issuance was delayed, he de-
clared, because it seemed prupapiv

advantage to those interested, land
there was no urgent demand for their
issuance"
However," he said, for some time
it has been strongly urged by those
interested that this department had
no right longer to withhold tn: rcS4-

their clear legal right and thereby
imposing serious loss on them,'

plication on this ground, as they have
