sELF-ADJUSTING BALLAST.

A snail that is placed on an in clined plane always crawls toward the highest part. Georges Drombreval, the French aviator, once placed on the upper plane of his airplane eighty eight pounds of snails, two-thirds of which were the large snow snails of Bourgogne. After rising to a height of perhaps 1500 feet he was able to take his hands off the controls for the rest of the two hours of flight. Whenever the machine dipped, either literally or longitudinally, the snails moved in a mass toward the upper part of the plane and reestablished the equilibrium.-Youth's Companion.

NEEDED
Industrial Court Files Report
ON Coal Investigations.
New Sales Agency Is Suggested
By Court Judges.

New laws and assumption of new
state authority are needed to properly
meet the coal situation in the Pitts
burg field and the protect the ultimate
consumer in channels thru which coal
movements are made. The state
should also enact legislation to proper
ly regulate and control the making of
the new-wage contract between the
miners and operators, according to a
report which the industrial court has
filed with Governor Allen.
The court also suggests the creation
of new agency for the sale, trans
portation ana delivery of coal. 1t
points out the many phases of waste
in the mining and handling of fuel
and emphasizes the fact that the mine
workers union has added to this
situation thru enactmentS which were
forced thru the state legislature. Pas
sage of some of the safety laws have
tended only to increase inefficiency
and waste at the mines. the court
finds.
To Make New Contract
Just now theN miners and operators
are awaiting the making of a new
wage contract which will become eff
thority under which the state may
take hand in the making of the new
wage contract. Neither has ii au-
thority to accept or reject the contract
after it is once approved by the mine
workers and operators. Arnericaniza-
ton of miners in the field is another
big problem before the state. Discuss
ing this situation, the court in its re-
port said:
"A contract should be made be-
tween the mine owner and his en-
ployer along the well established rule
that other American workingmen are
willing and content to work under,
and it may be necessary for the state
to follow up the transaction by Great
ing an agency thru which the sale.
transportation and delivery of this coal
to the ultimate consumer may be over
seen, allowing to all necessary parties
to its sale and distribution a fair
profit, to conserve the coal deposits
and to secure to the public, value for
the price paid

banding of the peace conference has
been SO fraught with momentous pos
sibilities as to world peace as that of
the allied premiers in Paris today, ac-
cording-to high officials of the ad-
ADMINISTRATION.
The presence of Col. George Harvey,
American ambassador to Great Bril-
tain, as the personal representative of
President Harding will insure this gov
ernment of an insight into the real
situation Abroad situation which
may easily resulut in the breaking off
of the Anglo-French entente and
realignment of Europe politically and
economically.
The expectation prevails in Wash
ing that four. possibly five. major
problems will occupy the attention of
the supreme council. There are the
Upper Silesian situation, the Turco-
Grecian war, Russian relief and Aus
TRAN relief. The fifth possibility is
that of mandates growing out of the
the first two. the United States Is
directly interested and Colonel Harvey
will speak the of the administration.
May Not Mention Mandates.
Mandates are not on the agenda but
it would occasion no, surprise in Wash
ington if they were touched upon.
The real extent to which Colonel
Harvey will participate in the discus
sions remained undisclosed in Wash
ington todayF5 Ostensibly, Colonel
Harvey's directions are to speak for
the United States in only those ques-
tions directly affecting the United
States. which do not include either
SiIesia or the Turco-Gre war. but
If things reach an inapasse on these
two matters it is easily conceivable
that Colonel Harvey may speak the
mind Of the United States.
In famine-sticken Russia and i'm
poverished Austria. the United States
has a real interest. The Russian sit
uation affects the entire world and
Colonel Harvey is believed to be IN

other countries for conditional aid to
