Japan has not yet scrapped a

neither have we. There ia nothing
threatening about that. 1t is not to
be expected that any guns will be
spiked until the treaty has been rati-

lose a single ship until all powers
have ratified.

United Neios staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.-President
Harding is about to undertake what he
regards as one of the most progressive
and constructive steps in American
economic Observation-Disclosures of the
great coal industry.
Power to create a commission au
thorized to undertake this work, never
before attempted upon so comprehen
sive a scale or with such far-reaching
reforms in view, will be granted within
few days. Both House and Senate
have passed so-called fact-fnding bills
empowering unlimited study of the
coal industry, these are now in con-
ference, and there is but one serious
difference to iron out between the
Winslow and BOrah measures-that
provision in the latter which au-
thorizes study Of the advisability Of
Matchmaking the mines.
Objects Revealed.
The President already has in mind
a strong commission" which he be-
lieves will command the enthusiastic
respect and support Of both operators
and miners as we'll as the public. In
vestigation by such a commission has
been the Presidents object ever since
the mine strike occurred. From the
outset he has believed that the biennial
struggles producing expensive coal
fuel shortages and bitterness between
operators and men. were built upon
fundamental fallacies and not merely
upon superficial contentious such as
Z NC
In a reflective mood one day, the
President made the remark that there
were four fundamental causes Of mine
industry upheavals:
!. That there were too many mines
producing coal.
?. That there were too many men
mining coal.
S That as a result Of the con1bi-
nation of these two factors there was
q lack Of continuity in employment
making for unrest and instability in
the industry.
(. General lack of knowledge as to
the actual facts such as costs of
operation and distribution in the
mines.
Discussions Frequent
There have been many Cabinet dis
cussions and long hours of work by
different Cabinet members on the
problem Of starting from these fun
damentals. Several plans have been
evolved, but one rather definite scheme
comprehends the coming of the mining
industry similar TO the regional d.
vision of the railroads. This zoning
would comprehend the shutting down
of such mines that fall below an es-
tablished standard Of productivity, the
remaining mines TO share in assump-
ton of cost resulting to those closed
down.

LEARN A WORD TODAY

Today's word is-MALFEASANCE.
It's nounoed-mai-fe-zan With
accent of the second syllable.
It means-the doing Of an act
which a person ought not to do, evil
conduct; an illegal deed.
1t comes from-French, "malfat-
SAINT" meaning Injurious" or doing
evil" the term being a combination
OF the two words, NAL" evil, and
"faisant," doing.
It's used like this-"A bill has been
introduced in Congress proposing to
broaden the definition Of 'malfeasance
in office so as to include the use OF
such office or its authority in an at
tempt to deprive any person Of his
lawful freedom Of speech. Of press or
of assemblage."

element grips Massachusetts. The
preliminary skirmish in the battle tc
pry Henry Cabot Lodge out of the
United States Senate will be held next
Tuesday.
Lodge himself is the calmest, cool
est person in the State.
His opponents. some Republicans
and all Democrats, are excited, not
because they think Lodge will be
beaten for the Republican nomination
but because they are trying to work
the State into enough Of sweat tC
give the Democratic candidate a
chance in the November election.
Victory Expected
Lodge is calm and cool because II
is his nature; also because he knows
just as the Democrats privately con
cede, that only an earthquake can
prevent his nomination.
Joseph Walker, former speaker OF
the Massachusetts House Of Repre-
sertatives, IS the man who has the
thankless job of trying ITO beat Lodge
in the primaries.
Few are rash enough to bet on
Walkers chances.
Interest Widespread
National interest is greater in the
Massachusetts fight than in any other
political struggle of the year, par
ticularly because Lodge is regarded
in his capacity as chairman of the

WAVELAND TO RETRENCH.

Retrenchment is the slogan IN
Waveland. AT least it is so with the
newly-elected Board of Mayor and
Aldermen.
The new board has been sworn in
and already the members assumed
their various duties. Under the plan
discussed and adopted, the secretary,
whose office is appointive, but will be
made elective in time for the next
regular election, will receive $4,000
per month instead of $23.00, as here
tofore.
Laborers on the streets and else
where about the city, heretofore re-
ceiving $500 per day, will receive
25 cents per hour for 8-hour day,
thus receiving $500 instead. And
other reductions proportionately will
be made. In all it is expected for the
first year no less than s800.00 and
over will be saved the taxpayers.
1t is planned to put the town on a
solid financial basis, and to put ats
physical property into first-elass
shape; to improve the town and bring
it to the fore where it SO rightly be-
longs. These men will certainly win
the plaudits Of the taxpayers.

while the enlistment in the navy was

to the flag and said that the flag
stands for the discovery of this coun-
try by Catholics; that it stands for

and that it stands for San Francisco,

Catholics were here before the bigots
