INJUNCTION SUITS
WILL Be DISMISSED
UNDER AGREEMENT
BY RALPH SMITH

The litigation between the Coca
Cola company, Of Delaware. and the
Coca-Cola Bottling companies, In
volving the perpetuity of the con-
tract existing between them, has
been settled.
The injunction proceedings now
pending before the United States
circuit court will be dismissed by
mutual consent, and the relations
between the so-called first line bot
tiers and the Coca-Cola company
will resume an aspect only slightly
different from that which existed
prior to the dispute concerning the
character and limitations of the con-
tract.
Under the terms Of the settlement.
the Coca-Cola company recognizes
the contention of the bottlers as to
the pegpetuity and validity. of the
original contract entered into be-
tween Asa G. Gambler, Sr., founder
offthe original company. and the late
j. B. Whitehead. original promoter
of the bottling industry.
The first line bottlers, under the
agreement, accept a readJustment Oh
the price at which the Coca-Cola
company is obligated to furnish
syrup for bottling purposes: For the
present, and until the stock OF hlgh
priced sugar the SOCd-SOt6
pany has has been consumed the Dol
tiers will pay for the syrup the
price fixed by the courts. This price
is S1.64 1-2 per gallon.
When, however, the high priced
stock of sugar has been consumed
by the Coca-Cola company, the price
of the syrup to the first line bot
tlers/will be reduced to S1.17 IL per
gallon, less 8 cents per gallon as
credit for advertising expenditures
by the bottlers, so that the actual
price will be SLIP L. cents per
At s1.12 1-2 cents per gallon to
first line bottlers, the syrup Will
cost the subsidiary, or actual bot
tiers about $3.50 per gallon, and 1t
is understood, in these instances,
that the settlement of the litigation
is subject to the approval of the
subsidiary interests. 1t is believed
the adjustment will be speedily ap-
proved.
The settlement of the differences
between the litigants was effected
Saturday after series of confer
ences that have extended over many
months, and which more, recently
were conducted at Atlantic City, n.

SENATORS PREPARE
FOR COAL BILL FIGHT

WASHINGTON. June 1S.-Senste
factions today prepared for another
battle next week over the Freling-
Euysen coal bills.
Reports that certain senate ele-
ments planned to use the measure,
which would provide reduced season
al rates on coal as vehicle for many
fundamental transportation amend-
ments. including repeal of the So
called railroad rate guarantee, caused
opposing forces to prepare for bat tie.
Members of the unofficial agricul-
tural block of senators were said
to be behind the amendment program.
Besides pressing n proposal for
repeal OF the rate guarantee, it was
said that other amendments would
strike at the interstate commerce
commissions power to regulate s1ate
rates. This has been protested from
many states.
Another amendment reported in
prospect is for reduction of freight
rates, especially on agricultural prod
ucts.
Reports of probable participa ton
of general railroad legislation idto

program led opponents to conside:

WORK MADE EASIER
BY ELECTRIC USES

A struggle has been going on be-
tween home economies old and home
economics new. But the old order
changeth giving place to new. In
order to understand how different
this new housekeeper is-think what
NAL times. They were spinning.
weaving, dyeing in one corner, per-
haps the weekly wash was in prog
ress in another corner; from side
walls and rafters hung dried fruits
and vegetables, ham and bacon. The
old-time home was really a minia-
ture manufacturing plant.
Gradually there came change.
The weaving, dyeing, soap-making
and other industries were trans
home--to factories. With the build
ing OF. the first factory the new
housekeeping began in the home and
since then homes have been in
more or less formative period. Then
gradually it began to be perceived
that must be run on a business ba-
sis. The emancipation of the home
made it a place where the members
of the family could live and get rest
and recreation and development.
1t is peculiar to homework that
most of it's operations result in max
ing still more work. Maintenance,
rather than production, is it's keynote.
Half the work entailed in we'll

within the category of removing
dirt. Whence ocmes this dirt? A
certain amount of dirt enters a house
from the street surface and from
chimney smoke but the film of din
giness revealed by the bright sun
shine is the dismal work of old-fash-
toned methods of heating, perhaps
of lighting and cooking for where
there are flames there are always
fumes.

their deposits on everything within

attacking the chief cause of dirt and
deterioration at it's source, electric
ity, clean; sootless and smokeless
offers the most promising prospect
for the twentieth century home. The
use of electricity for heating, light.
ing and cooking removes much OF
the dirty work from the modern home
and the rest of the work is made
easier and simpler.
