WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-Former
Senator Willard Salisbury. a mem
ber OF the advisory council to the
American ambassadors to the inter-
national conference on Limitation Of
armaments, said today he was sure
that something substantial would re-
suit from the deliberations of the
delegates. He said it was a little
too early to make definite predic-
tions, but that an agreement would
be reached seems to be highly prob
able.
Nobody at this time would be
rash enough to name any particular
thing which the conference may do.
but acceptance by the great Nations
of the world of the American pro-
gram in principle would be a long
step in the right direction" said Mr..
Salisbury.

COAL SHORT AND HIGHER.

Coal prices increase a little every
month
Up in the cold Northwest where
coal is almost a matter of life or
death. the price has about reached
the point where homes of small
means must do without.
In the Middle and Southwest,
where in winter there frequently
are the greatest ranges of tempera-
ture. the situation is scarcely more
favorable.
In most coal fields the price of
soft coal at the mine in July of
this year was cheaper than last
year but due to high rail rates and
other expensive handling. the price
of this coal. delivered. exceeds what

LABOR HAD LITTLE TO
CELEBRATE 0vERS

With six million men out of work
and industries idle for lack of mar
ket. with federal troops in control
of the mining regions of West Vir-
ginia. with many thousands strik
ing for the maintainance of war
time wages or the Establishment of
44-hour week, with bread lines
and soup houses in prospect. labor
has not much to celebrate this labor
day.
When wages were high and work
plentiful, labor was most dissatis-
fed and permeated with unrest, and
did least. Now that the change
in conditions voted for has been
realized and normalicy is here. or
ganized labor displays little of the
spirit necessary for successful read
iustment.
Professional labor leaders pre-
tend to see in the financial depres-
sion only capitalist conspiracy
to bring hard times for the purpose
of reducing wages and thereby in
creasing profits. This theory is
absurd. Hard times are the result
of economic conditions. the newt
able reaction from the destruction
and waste of the war and the infia
tion and decentralization following
For every dollar labor loses in idle
ness. idle capital loses proportion
ately and the losses sustained can
never be recovered
Everyone realizes that the higher
wages are, the greater the pros

wants to cut wages provided the
business justihes their continuance
and the high wages really assure
production instead of sabotage. The
problem of the average employer
now is to keep going and meet his
payroll. With diminished income
and vanished profits, he can not op-
crate upon the prosperity basis of .

Good Training.
for Health

4 RECENT dispatch from Paris
~ tells us that the Chamber of
- Deputies by a unanimous vote
has passed bill making physical
training compulsory for all persons
of both sexes under twenty-five.
This is social innovation of great
value. When we begin to look after
our human machinery with the same
care that we look after the iron and
steel which make up our inanimate
machinery, we will begin to improve
the race and accelerate the produc-
ton of wealth, reduce the waste of
sickness and unemployment and
under-capacity.
More than that, we shall greatly
increase the total happiness Of the
world.
We shall have no such pains as
come to us from bad teeth, and none
of the serious diseases which come
from bad teeth.
We shall have none of the dis
comforts and incapacities which
arise from excessive fat.
Diseases of the heart and the kid
neys and the lungs will be so con-
trolled as to reduce the death rate
remarkably, and thus lengthen the
life of the race.
Already general improvement
somewhat in the direction of this
law just passed in France has in
creased the average life in America
by ten years since the civil war.
Universal military training would
be the greatest aid in the direction
of increasing the health and the
longevity of our people, quite apart
from its patriotic value. There is no
reason why girls could not be train
ed to carry on the natural functions
Of women, as wen as the boys.
