New York Herald Bureau,
Washington, ID. c., Jan. IL.

Sweeping Federal regulation of the
coal industry, both bituminous and an
thracite, was recommended In Congress
to-day by the special committee on re-
construction which has been conducting
an inquiry of alleged coal profiteering.
A bill embodying the recommendations
OF the committee was introduced by SEN
ator Calder New York;, chairman OF
the committee, with a statement that II
should be considered Immediately. II
was stated further that at the end OF
the committees investigation, which is
far from complete, additional regulatory
legislation would be recommended.
The provisions of the Calder bill are
extremely drastic. In the opinion or
those engaged In the coal industry, and
they will make bitter fight against It's
enactment. II not only proposes pub
lcation OF the profits made by those In
the industry, but gives to the President
power In case of emergency threaten
ing either unreasonable prices or short
age of coal supplies" to fix maximum
prices, commissions and margins; to
deal in coal and control Its production.
movement and distribution. so as to put
the Government. and not those self-in-
terested. in control OF the emergency.
Administration of the proposed coal
regulation is placed In the hands Jointly
of the Federal Trade Commission. the
Interstate Commerce Commission and
the Geological Survey. The latter Is
empowered to gather data available to
the public of the amount of coal pro-
duced and other details as to its actual
mining. which il has been furnishing
for some time.

day, when Lieut.. Farrell knocked Lieut..

The Aero Club does not attempt to
pass Judgment ON the dispute in any
way or to comment on the justification
for II. but II is felt that a banquet In

tranged would be a most awkward af-
fair for all concerned. Major Il. 3.
Wemp, club president explained.
1t Is understood that the organization
also was influenced to forego the BAN
quet by semi-official intimation from
Ottawa that Il would be better to allow
the bailoonists to continue their journey
homeward without delay.
