HAVE 90 DAYS COAL SUPPLY
 AS NATIONAL STRIKE NEARS| Operator Says Walkout Would Cut Out
 put Fifty Per Cent

"In what manner could the ultimate price of soft coal to the consumer be reduced?" he was asked.
 Reduction of wages, reduction of freight rates, reduction in the cost of distribution" was the answer.
 The consumer would get the bene- fit of whatever reductions were made in freight rates or wages, Watkins de- clared.
 "The demands of the operators when the present contract with the soft coal miners expires on March 31 have not yet been formulated, but presumably will ask for a rate of wages that will allow the meeting of competition from the non-union oper- ations," Watkins continued.
 "cANNoT SAFELY IGNORE"
 "The union operator is controlled by general economic and competitive conditions and cannot safely ignore the laws of supply and demand, eith- CT in the labor or commodity mar kets."
 The non-union mines of the country are producing an increasingly large percentage of the total coal output, according to Watkins.
 For instance, in Pennsylvania for the year 1921 the production of the union mines fell to about 43 per cent of the total production, while in 1920 it was 54 per cent of the total" he said
 The variations between the union miners wage scale and that of the non-union miners run from 30 to 50 per cent in different districts, accord ing to Watkins

course, that In an extreme case and
the combintion is cited merely as an
illustration. A rug OF neutral color
IL the best selection, for II will har-
monize with any color used for
furniture. drapories, etc.
Question. DO you like more than
one floor lamp for the living room?
Answer That depends upon the
size and furnishing OF the living
room If It Is large enough TO
have several groups, or centers OF
Interest, one floor lamp will not be
sufficient to give the proper amount
OF light. ] believe. however. there
Is as much danger Of making a
room inharmonious by having too
many lamps, floor and table, with
overdecorated shades Lamp shades
are used for subduing too bright a
light and also to add a decorative
touch Lamps should be chosen
to harmonize with the room In
which they are to be placed not
only In color, but line and propor-
tion as wei
Question. Are the long davenport
tables good7 (
- Answer. They may be used in a
large living room, but they over
crowd a small room too much to
be considered good. The smaller
tables. placed where they will be
most efficient, will be found much
the better. Such tables include the
gateleg table. the tiptop. the end
tables and the like.
Question. Would you have A
writing desk in the living room /?
If so what kind?
Answer. A writing desk may
properly be placed in the living
room. The Kind" would depend
upon the character Of the other
furniture in the room. II windsor
chairs and gatelcg tables are used
spinet desk would be good
choice. There are many desks, good
In line and proportion, in the shops
and with a little study you will be
able to find one that is suitable for
your room,
Question. Where would you suggest
placing a plano in the living room ?
Answer Alas. the present-day liv-
| Ing room IL so small It is sometimes
serious problem where to place the
/ plano II the piano is In constant
| use II should be placed where the
