SPEAKER SCORES
RADICAL TENDENCIES

Radicalism of labor and the display
Of similar trend by farmers in parts
of the country was roundly scored
Thursday night by +. B. Fish. editor
of Labor and Industry. in chautau-
qua address. whittier are we Drift
ing?" was Mr.. Fish's subject, and he
answered by declaring that the coun-
try's goal would soon be social and
economic chaos. unless the radical agi-
tators of labor cease demands for
shorter hours apd curtailment of pro-
duction. Mr.. Fish denounced the mas
ter of the Washington grange for an
alleged series of radical acts and an
address at the annual meeting, although
no name was mentioned, and yet, he
declared, the farmers of Warrington ap-
parently sponsor these destructive ten
denotes by reelecting this man.
Mr.. Fish declared that he was not
speaking as an anti-union labor man.
He stated that he in fact was a spon-
sor of organized labor, but he expressed
the belief that the continued employ
ment of radical tactics will work for the
destruction of honest organized labor
and every other fabric of the American
body polite.

PUBLIC is ASKED
TO LAY IN COAL

The general public is asked to pur.
chase coal and have it stored during
summer months. The impression has
gained general dissemination that
| freight rates would drop. This is a
mistake however. according to bulle-
tin just received by the O. w. r. & N.
freight office from II. f. Lounsbury,
general traffic manager. The bulletin
follows:
Regardless of efforts to get before
the consumers of coal. assurances as
| to stability of rates for this season at
least, there continues a general dispos-
ition on the part of the buying public
to hold off their purchases, no doubt
| due in considerable measure to express
sions of certain officers of the admin
| istration leading the consuming public
| to. believe there will be a reduction in
| freight rates during the coming sea-
son. There is nothing in the situation
that would justify such belief, for the
simple reason that freight rates cannot
be reduced until transportation costs
have been substantially lowered, and
that has not yet been accomplished |
wrote you along similar lines on May
9th, and at this time reproduce the fol-
lowing kilograms, copies of which
have been sent to me by F. w. Robin
son, freight traffic manager, Union
Pacific System:
Utah Coal operators by Cameron
Coal Co., dated June 3rd to Hon. Her.
bert Hoover, Secretary of Commerce,
Washington, ID. c.
Government departments recently
advised public that unless coal was
freely stored during summer months
coal panic would ensue during coming
winter and Congressional Committee
reporting on Senate Bill S-l86 ex-
pressed similar view. This correct
statement of situation was accepted
and acquiesced in by consuming public.
However. telegraphic announcement
of President Harding's recent inter-
view with Interstate Commerce Com
mission was unfortunately unduly
emphasized by newspapers and has re-
suited in serious checking coal stor-
age in anticipation freight reduction.
In Utah such reduction very unlikely
because State Public Utilities Commits
sion refused permit last freight rate
increase to apply on coal moving wholly
within state. Coal mines this field
working only twenty to twenty-five
per cent time and further reductions
would be completely demoralizing. If
not inconsistent with policy your de-
partment would very much appreciate
an expression from you as to whether
or not you have information regarding
immediate coal freight decrease in
western states as well as your views
concerning summer storage-in fact,
permit us to suggest that an official |
expression to Associated Press and |
others from Washington as to whether
or not any proposed freight reduction
will apply to coal would result in clar-
flying present uncertainty which is
causing stagnation in coal business.
Continued disposition on part of con-
Stunning public to delay storing coal
will unquestionably bring about serious
this winter.
Mr.. Hoover's reply of June 7th,
follows:
IL have no information that leads
me to believe there will be any reduc-
ton of coal rates this season.

Columbia ReCedeS to Normal

The Columbia, which reached a
freshet stage. higher than any time
since 1894, here month ago. has re-
ceded to normal flow for the season.
Truck gardeners east and west of
the city are busy on land formerly COW
cred by water. and heavy potato crops
will be grown on the ranches it is said.
John H. Koberg, owner of the Twen-
tieth Century Truck Farm, inundated
with heavy loss when dikes broke, is
pumping out the flood water. He ex-
poets to be able to replant his highly
developed tracts.
The receding waters have left un-
covered a portion of the huge sandbar
just north of the city, and local golf
enthusiasts who utilize the large bar
as a course expect to be able to re-
sumo their play within few weeks.
