ARE OPPOSED TO
 HEALING ART BILL

Dentists, optometrdsts, ostepaths natureopaths, chiropractors, chiropo- dists, Christian Scientists and '.New Thoughters'' have combined forces to present stiff opposition to the %heal- ing art bi1I' at the healing before the legislative committee on public health and safety. In anticipation of the crowds that are expected the hall of the House has been reserved for the hearing that is scheduled for 2 o'clock this afternoon.
 The bill, which regulates the prac- tice of healing arts by having all ex- amining boards under the direct Su- pervision of State Health Commits sioner John T. Black, has met with general opposition mainly on the grounds that the work is not under the jurisdiction of the health board head, and that the bill is an attempt to delegate legislative powers to a bureau.

PROFIT ESTIMATES
 FULLY ANALYzED
Figures Show Some Com panies Cleared Above 200
 Per Cent Last Year
By Associated Press

Washington, February 4-Estimates of large profits made by some coal mining companies during 1920 as put before the Senate committee considering the Calder coal regulation bill we're extensively analysed today in cross-examination by Senator. Reed, democrat. Missouri David l.. Wing, federal trade commission statis- tician, read operation returns of 5l com- panies from figures taken from the Ma tional Coal association offices. These showed that one or two companies had cleared above 200 per cent last year. and only one as little as per cent on It's stated capital. Higher returns were re- ported in the case of corporations in the Pocohontas field in West Virginia. while
 one in central Pennsylvania earned 22
 per cent and others in unstated locali- ties, Mir. Wing reported. had profits from 92 per cent to the lowest noted.
 None of these companies was selling ton. was it?'' Senator Reed demanded.
 "One of them was" MT Wing re-
 rlied and cited West Virginia pro- ducer. This company realized $12.09 a ton for coal during August" he added. This was a small producer, wasn't it?' Senator Reed continued.
 We've been told the little ones got the high prices. and l don't want to protect
 anybody If that isn't the truth.
 '.It produced more than 10000 tons in 1s2O," MT. Wing said That puts it in the second class of coal mines
 Senator Reed pointed out that other production records showed million tons annual output from several mines, and suggested that the figures demonstrated that the smaller mines got the largest returns. Mir. Wing insisted. however, that the estimates rebutted the conclusion
 that the smaller mines got the biggesl
 prices for coal"
