Martyrs. 1.-The blood of the mar

The Bolshevists of Russia have taken
many diabolical means to uproot Chris
tianity. They have desecrated the
churches, closed monasteries and con-
vents, pillaged the cathedrals, murder
ed priests and bishops. What is the
result The Russian Church is thriv-
ing spiritually. Churches are full to
overf1owine, and a great religious revi-
val is going on. Not only the peasants,
but also the middle and intellectual
classes have sought in religion refuge
from the utter misery of their exis-
tance. Truly, Christianity is the hope
of the world.
Recognize Anglican Orders. 1.-The
most momentous chapter in ecclesiasti-
cal history in a thousand years, scarce
ly excepting the chapters written dur
ing the Reformation period, has just
been completed in Constantinople. The
Synod of the Ecumenica Patriarchate
in session in that city on August lst.
pronounce in favor of the validity of
Anglican Orders" Thus far the
prayer for the unity of Christendom
has been answered.

COAL PRICES FIXED
An Increase Of Soc Per Ton Higher
Than Last Year
NEW RATES EFFECTIVE AT.ONCE

dealers assembled at a meeting of
tne delaware Coal Commission were
notified by that body that the prices of
anthracite and bituminous coal would
De only 80 cents in excess per ton over
those charged at local yards prior to the
strike last April. The prices for the
various grades were fixed as follows:
Egg-$13,75.
Stove-Sl3.
Nut-$l3.75.
Pea-$l1.
Buekwheat-$8. SO.
In setting the rates, the commission
took into consideration mine costs.
freight charges and other miscellaneous
expenses attendant upon production and
distribution. The foregoing prices are
effective Immediately. and in this con-
nectlon the commission ordered that all
coal delivered to consumers, but not
yet billed, should be charged at the
adopted rates.
CONDI1 IONS WILL GOVERN
The commission will be governed in
accordance with the requirements of
conditions from time to time, it was de-
clared.
Leon Walker, coal commissioner,
gave a complete and detailed account
OF the proceedings and results of the
various conferences held in New York
and Philadelphia during the week, and
which were attended by the Pennsyl-
vania Fuel Commission, representatives
of the federal government and the full
administrators or chairmen of the fuel
commissions of all the eastern states
north of and including Virginia.
Stress was laid upon the necessity of
consumers mixing the smaller sizes of
coal with the larger sizes in order to
permit Of wider distribution of the lat
ter.
R. D. KEMP, DISTRIBUTOR
1t also was announced that Commits
sioner Robert D. Kemp had been as
sgnei by the Commission as Anthra.
cite Fuel Distributor for Wilmington and
its immediate environs during the pres
ent emergency. Mr.. Kemp, who served
in similar capacity during the latter
years of the war period, was selected
as the best qualified man in Wilmington
to handle anthracite distribution. This
work will be handled from the office of
the Delaware Coal Commission at No.
East Ninth street.
WILL WATCH IMPLICATIONS
Arrangements were made to check
Implications of orders, whereby con-
sumers who have placed orders with
several dealers at the same time may
be assured that these Implications will
be checked very carefully. and that no
duplication of deliveries will be per-
mitted.
All orders placed with ieaers since
last March and which remain untitled,
ard records of all deliveries made dur
ing the summer, have been certified to
the office of the commission, where
now they are being compared for that
purpose. This will have the effect OF
securing wider distribution of available
coal by furnishing everybody with
enough coal to keep their homes warm,
and also of prevent G a comparative
few from securing large quantities,
while the many are curtailed unneces.
sarily in their supply. This. of course,
will cause a delay of day or so be.
tween the placing of the order and de.
livering.

WILL BUCK PLAN
To USE FOREIGN
DEBT FOR BONUS
[RepubIIean A. p. Leased WlreI

WASHINGTON, Feb. Word
went out from the White House to-
day that President Harding was
strongly opposed to the writing into
the soldier bonus bill of a provision
for the use OF the refunded foreign
bonds in helping finance the adjust
ed compensation agreement.
Confidence was expressed that no
such provision would be included In
the measure.
The president was reported as TAX
ing the view that since the refunding
negotiations would be incomplete
when the bonus bill was passed. II
would be unwise to depend upon for
eign bonds as a source of revenue to
meet compensation payments. In his
talks with congressional leaders, he
is understood to have insisted that
the bonus legislation provide definite
and certain revenue sources.
The problem of financing the
bonus is giving congressional lead
ers no small concern. With the
house ways and means committee
hearings ended today, majority mem
bers of the committee and the SEN
ate finance committee plan to attack
that problem soon. One difficulty in
bill, Il Is explained, is the lack OF
definite information as to the cost OF
carrying out the "five-way" plan.
OF former service men who choose
the various plans. II all take cash.
the cost would be approximately ST.
SOC. .000, 900 within two and one half
years. The basis on which the COM
bination will work in solving the
financing problem probably will be
that so per cent OF the men will take
cash.
Since the cash payments would be
distributed over more than two years,
with the quarterly payment during
the period edualinR oue-tenth OF the
total 10 be paid each applicant, many
members OF congress believe large
majority OF the men Will elect zone
OF the other four plans. insurance,
voca tional training. land settlement
and home aid. Officials OF the Amer
lean Legion who have appeared be-
fore the house committee also share
this view.
Fiscal officers Of the army. navy
and marine corporation have sub
mitted estimates to the committee
that the total cost OF the bonus
would be approximately $2,500.000.-
600. This is on the basis that so per
cent OF the men who served with
the army and IS per cent of those
serving with the navy and marine
corps will take cash. Navy and ma
rine corps officers told the commit
tee today that the as per cent figure
was arrived at on the theory that
men who served at sea were less tied
to the land than those who served in
the army.
