pressions in life. We can't seem to
get away from that-yet! Do not be
ashamed, feel weak-minded or alarm
ed over the preliminary stages of
Discouragement.
1t is when Discouragement gets
you that it hurts. History's pages
are full of stories concerning great
men who have built nations, led
armies and moulded the times who
became Discouraged and were just
about to lose courage before they put
over the big idea. JUST ABOUT
NOT QUITE!
Here is the little secret: Time and
again you may have to adjourn to the
quiet places and fight out the Dis
couragement battle. But always stick
to the job in hand. FIGHT 1T OUT!
KNOCK 1T COLD!
With head up, eyes front, brace
yourself and take your stand against
old man Discouragenent. Keep
courage alive, and as sure as you live
during the darkest hours, when you
feel you can't carry on moment
longer, the sun will beam through
the clouds of Discouragement and
leave you a stronger and better man.

FACTS FOR COAL CONSUMERS

The coal magnates of Pennsylvania
some time ago increased the price OF
anthracite coal 100 per cent at the
mouth of the mines. The Federal
Trade Commission undertook to find
out if this increase was justified. The
mine owners were asked to furnish
the commission with the cost of oper-
alton, wages paid, the price for which
their coal was sold, and the margin
of profit.
The National Coal Association, rep
resenting about 500 of the coal
operators of the country, objected.
They contended that the production
of coal did not involve question OF
interstate commerce" and that the
Federal government was therefore
without jurisdiction. The Federal
court of the District of Columbia
promptly issued an injunction re-
straining the Federal Trade Com
mission, and the matter is still hung
up in the courts, and the anthracite
coal monopoly continues to profiteer.
profteer.
About the same time the state of In
diana undertook to compel the coal
operators of that state to furnish
state authorities with information
concerning the cost of mining coal.
The National Coal Association again
went to the rescue. This time its at
torneys contended that "almost the
entire output of these mines would go
largely into the interstate commerce."
and that therefore the state of In
diana was endeavoring to interfere
with interstate commerce, over which
the Federal government had exclusive
jurisdiction. The court promptly de-
cided in favor of the National Coal AS
sociation and told the state of Indiana
to mind its own business.
Isn't it nice to have the courts so
trained that they will decide one way
in Indiana and just the other way in
Washington?

DISCOURAGEMENT

Discouragement has kept more
folks from going over the top in bus
mess, health, love and play than all
other gloom moods.
Many business man has been at
the point of getting the signature on
the dotted line when old man Dis
couragement stepped in and knocked
the stuffing out of the order.
Sick people have fought for months
to get back in healthy harness. AS
they were passing through the dark
est stages and waiting for the light
to break upon them they became Dis
couraged and remained jnvalids.
Bright young men with worlds of
business scalps, medals for bravery
and what not, have failed at the
psychological moment to broach the
subject of marriage to a fair one.
Becoming Discouraged at the sight of
sharp-eyed dad, they go through
life hard-boiled bachelors.
Yes, sir, Discouragement is ter
rible disease. Once you become sus-
ceptible to this plague you are apt to
stop everything before you start it.
If you listen to the Discouragement
peddlers you'll never do anything, be
anything or get anywhere. Dis
couragement stops red blood from
circulating as we'll as brains from
developing.
Encouragement is a subtle old
rogue. 1t creeps upon you when op-
portunity is knocking at your door
and puts soft peddle on success. 1t
makes you justify laziness and places
you on the shelf with the rest of the
antiques.
BUT Remember: Do not think when
having a little attack of Discourage
ment you're scheduled for the ash
heap, doomed for failure. You will
have many, many moments of Dis
couragement, disappointments and de-

SENATOR McCORMICK'S REAL
CRAFTSMANSHIP

Senator Mccormick introduced a
Senate Resolution asking how much
European countries are eXpending
upon needless armies and political
henchmen and how much such coun-
tries owe the United States.
The New York Times and the rest
of the pro-League of Nations, pro-
British and anti-American press i'm
mediately attacked the Senator as a
busy body; however, the Senate adopt
ed the resolution. The Senator replied
to his critics that the European gov
ernments are expending beyond their
revenues for armies and functionaries
and that the American creditors of
such governments are conscious that
they are paying for such needless eX-
penditures.
The Illinois senator shouted a
mouthful of American sentiment
across the Atlantic and Europe got
such an earful of riot act that the
ache may not stop for months; how
ever, it is high time that somebody
in authority ends the piffle propa-
ganda which sorely tries the patience
of America.
When Senator Mccormick spoke the
world got the precise American atti
tude. The situation would improve
quickly if the Senator could be dupli-
Gated about ninety times in the Sen
ate and in every cabinet office.
Untold number of foreigners have
spoken at American banquets, lunch
cons, and through the foreign propa-
ganda press. The insidious campaign
has hut one Durpose. which is to get
America to cancel the war debts and
to finance the hopeless European sit
uation, which grows worse daily be-
cause so many work so hard with the
mouth and so little with the head and
hands. Parlor socialism is lost art
compared with the brotherhood of man
doctrine that foreigners attempt to
teach Americans. When the foreign
preachers of the brotherhood system
practice democracy under pure repub-
lies, America might we'll join in the
anvil chorus; in the meantime, the
United States will let the Lords of
England sell their line of hereditary
rule in places other than the western
hemisphere. Senator Mccormick has
set a good example. The humble
American voter wants to hear square
ly from all who expect to cooperate
in representing America in interna-
tional matters. May Washington for
get European conferences on every
thing and busy itself with ten million
idle Americans, whose health and hap
piness lies in places other than busted

CHAIN WORKERS TO TASK

1t was the peoples proud BOAST, at
one time in this country, that the con-
stitution shielded the individual or
the smallest group in their rights, re-
gardless of the opposition's power and
influence.
Today a group of workers can De
handcuffed to their labor on the
ground that the public is entitled to
service and that an extensive strike
is a defiance of government.
These cunning arguments are urged
by men who consider themselves
statesmen, and by editorla! parrots
who label their sophistry "gOvern-
ment by law"
The public's new attitude can be
appreciated by recalling thai when
Pinkerton detectives were used
against the Homestead strikers, 30
years ago, the protest was nation
wide and legislature made it unlaw-
ful to import these +hugs into their
states.
Today these states discuss making
strikes unlawful and permit the same
brand of detectives to be deputized as
"peace officers" to break strikes.
10 say it was ACCOMPLISHED by edu-
cation would libel the noblest Of pro-
fessions.
Blantant and illogical, the handcuf-
fecs appeal to the very public they
exploit and gouge. They trustify fac
tories, raise prices, restrict output,
swell the army of unemployed and
blame the claw of supply and de-
mand."
When unfair conditions force a
group of workers to quit employment
the employer is kept in the back
ground while "can't strike" advo-
Gates shrek that these workers are
"defying the government" or are sat
tempting to coerce the public"
This system was perfected in 1919
when miners were forced on nation
wide strike.
Receiving instructions from dele
gate convention, officers of the miners
presented their demands to the coal
owners at Buffalo and were repulsed.
The coal owners refused to make
counter proposition or offer and sug-
gestion that could be used as basis
for compromise.
The Buffalo performance was dup
Heated a few days later at Philadel
phia. Then the miners struck to en-
force their demands.
The system used against the miners
is the system used by "can't-strike"
advocates. They talk about the
rights of the public" when they
want cheap labor chained to it's task.
At all other times they consider the
public so much loot. Their record of
plumber, gouge and profiteering on the
public is a sordid one.
When the struggle for human lib
erty in this age is written, what an
opportunity for some word painter to
tell the story of an exploited public
being used by coarse, unsatisfied
greed in it's attempt to enslave the
workers.
The subject is worthy of the satire
of Dickens Or the smashing epochs of
Carlyle.
And of equal interest will be the
story of labor's successful resistance
against the attempt to establish serf-
dom in the first country in the world
dedicated to human liberty.

When cases of venereal disease are
