Philadelphia, June 22-The Amer

which is undertaking a campaign to
raise $4,000, 900 within the next year
to feed German children, has receiv-
ed a letter from President Harding
commencing the humanitarian ef-

committee organized to conduct the
campaign. 1t reads:
"My sympathy has been aroused in
the effort your organization is making
to raise funds for suffering unfOrtu-
nate children Of Central Europe. i
am impressed that the time has
come when the old asperities of the
war period may properly be forgotten
in the face of such humanitarian ef-
forts. The real ideal of human broth
erhood will best and soonest be real
lied through the encouragement of
such work as this"

HOLD UP COAL PROBE
Industrial Court Busy at Topeka on
Wolff Packer Case

Topeka, June 22.-The coal inves-
tigation set for today by the indus
trial court at Pittsburg has been
postponed for a week. The action of
the court came suddenly yesterday
afternoon following the order of the
supreme court granting an alternative
writ of mandamus in the Wolff Pack
ing Company case and requiring that
the writ be returned by Saturday.
The members of the court found
that the coal investigation would SER
iously interfere so it was decided to
postpone it while the Wolff case was
pending.
The investigation into the coal
costs and prices will begin June 80
at Pittsburg. The investigation will
cover every phase Of the coal mining
business so that the court will know
definitely the actual cost Of mining
coal and the prices which the min
ing companies and sales companies
receive.

Speaker Tells Hardwaremen Replace
ment Value Should Be Basis
(Associated Press)


(Associated Press)
Louisville, KY, June 22.-Speak-
ing on the question: e"Are hardware
retailers following price declines?"
G. II. Casey, Jordan, Mimi, said that
while there are some dealers who
have been tardy in marking down
their prices and are trying to hold
their prices higher than replacement
values warrant, hardware men gen.
eraly have been the leaders in put
ting new and lower prices into ef-
feet. He addressed the Hardware
Congress here today.
He referred to an advertising cam
paign that was started early in Jan
uary by nearly five hundred hardware
dealers in Minnesota, Wisconsin,
North Dakota and South Dakota, In
which they used large amounts OF
newspaper space to tell the public
their price policy and to announce
the price declines which they made
as rapidly as replacement values JUS
titled.
"If you have an article on your
shelf that cost a dollar" said Mr..
Casey, "and you can replace it for
75 cents it is good business to sell 1t
on the 75-cent basis"

TO SALINA

Dear Neighbor: why don't
you brace up and do business
on the good roads program? You
have held a score of dinners but
Dickinson county has built
roads. In year there will be
hard surface road from Kansas
City to the west line Of Shaw
nee county, about 100 miles, and
from Army City to Abilene, 40
miles more. To be sure, Riley
and Pottawatomie counties still
stick in the mud but 1t Is only
40 miles. Dickinson is going to
gravel and later pave the road
from Abilene to Solomon. If the
road from Solomon to Salina and
from Salina to Lndsborg were
paved not only the. travel that
now goes north over the dirt
Midland trail would come this
way but nine-tenths of the
travel over the Santa Fe Trail
would leave the hills, rocks and
dirt of southeast Kansas and
come through Abilene and Sail
ma, then south to Mcpherson and
west. You can't keep a tourist
Off a paved road. 1t would be the
biggest asset you could have to
bring this travel this way. Dick
inson has done its part-it is up
to Saline. Salina can do it If it
will. Why don't you?
