WASHINGTON. Jan. 26.-Coal is
"sellng cheaper than sand" c. E.

operator, argued to-day before a Sen
ate commltree in opposing the Calder
coal regulation bill.
"The coal industry is now back to

in. being that of selling your product
below cost" M. Maurer added.
More railroad cars and not legisla-
tion is needed to avert possible future
shortages, Mr.. Maurer told the COM
mittee, adding that the high prices
last year were due to "panic, fright
of people who read about the railroad
strike and the Interstate Commerce
Commission priority or 'ers on cars,
and who remembered the shut downs
in 1917 and the coal strike in 1919"
Data on increases in coal production
costs were put before the committee
by Charles O'Neill, secretary Of the

that territory at S114 a ton, against

Baruch Tobacco Selling
Plan Put Up to Growers
Special Dtspatch TO III. rrtnun.


LEXINGTON, Ky, Jan. 2e.-Tobacco
farmers of Kentucky, Tennessee, Ohio
and Indiana had presented to them TO-
day plan which, if accepted, will
mean the growers cooperative control
OF light Burley tobacco production,
amounting annually to more than 300,-
100000 pounds.
Burley. growing counties tonight put
ting the. proposal before the farmers.
The decision will be announced at a
general convention to be called in Lex
ington at time to oe fixed.
The plan, as outlined by John W.
Newman, president of the Burlev To-
bacco Growers Association is the one
favored by Bernard Baruch and others
who had conferences with Kentucky
farming interests asst week. 1t pro-
vides that growers form cooperative
selling agency, to which the tobacco
grown by association members will be
pledged. 1t then sets forth that all
tobacco warehouses, -edyring and stor-
age plants be purchased and controlled
by the growers agency. When this is
done 1t is proposed tc charge n.anufac-
turers nominal sum for redrying,
which, it is estimated, would yield
enough revenue within few years to
pay for the warehouse, redrying and
storage property.
The plan provides for the curtail-
ment Of the crop this year, but does
not favor it's being cut out altogether
Fifty per cent of the appraised value
OF tobacco held by rrowers would be
advanced to the farmer to carrv him
over any period Of financial strinyencv.

From The Tr1bune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-The naval
court Of inquiry which investigated
the killing of Lieutenant W. H. Lang
don in Vladivostok January 10, found
that the American naval officer was
"blameless" and that he was "subject
to an unwarranted attack by the Jap
anese sentry" Rear Admiral Albert
c. Gleaves informed the Navy Depart
ment to-day in a dispatch from the
Siberian port.
The American note Of protest against
the Staying Of Lieutenant Langdon. dis
patched by the State Department last
week, was acknowledged to-day in a
brief dispatch from the Toxic For
eign Office. The acknowledgment was
accompanied by the statement that the
inquiry by the Japanese officials in the
case had not been completed.
Admiral Gleaves informed the Navy
Department that Japanese officials in
Vadivostok have been warned by Gen
eral Oh, who commands the Siberian
expedition, to see that all sentries are
instructed to use greater precautions
in order to prevent the repetition OF
any such regrettable occurrence as the

quarters for Ex-Service
Men and Those Who
Were Unable to Enlist

A war memorial with a utilitarian
purpose Is to be erected in this city by
q group Of American Legion men, who
purpose to make it serve the double
duty Of providing headquarters for
both veterans Of the war and those
men who were unable to enlist because
Of family responsibilities or important
oAicial duties.
The more than six hundred mem
bers Of Dan Talon Post, composed Of
letter carriers and mail clerks who
were VITA the colors. and their woman's IS

Of nearly ore thousand, are responsible
for this departure in the selection Of a
suitable mem orial to their dead COM
rades, and Il e auxiliary already has
begun work on preliminaries to Sun
day concert tn be given in the Hippo
drome in mid-April.
There were nearly two thousand vet
erans in the postoffice employ, and
there are approximately fifteen thou
sand others who work with them for
the government. These men, it is
pointed out by the auxiliary, have no
recreation centers in which to meet,
and are unable to join clubs because of
their restricted incomes. The veterans,
therefore, will not make the memorial
headquarters an exclusively veteran in
stitution. Their comrades who couldn't
serve will be welcomed as members
and it is believed in this way that the
organization eventually can be made
one of the strongest in the greater

Disabled Cannot Resnlist

Advices from Washington declare
that the thirty-year-old practice of per-
mitting disabled soldiers undergoing
treatment to reenl st is illegal and no
longer will be countenanced.
Comptroller of the Treasury War
wick handed down this opinion in re-
ply to an inquiry from Secretary Baker
as to Whether it was proper for the
War Department to pay the $50 re-
enlistment bonus to men whose enlist
ment had expired while tney were re-
ceiving treatment. He held that the
act of March 5, 1902, required that re-
cruits for the army be effective and
able bodied men.
at thus appears" the Comptroller
rul ng said, that from 1902 to TIE date
of the ruling Of the Acting Secretary
Of War in 1890 it was uniformly held
that one of the requisites for enlist
ments o. reenlistments in the army is
that the applicant must be an effective
