Profiteering by a Doctor.

A medical man in Nagykoros, near
Budapest, recently charged 5000
crowns (present value e., but pur-
chasing value in a village about f6)
for single visit to a patient who
lived not far from the doctors resi-
dence. This patient sued the doctor
for 'profteering, but the court dis
missed the case. The plaintiff APP
pealed, however, to a higher court,
which gave Judgment against the doc
tor, on the ground that the demand
ing Of an exorbitant fee for profess
sional services was to be regarded as
profiteering, and was therefore illegal.
1t was decided that mental workers
could fairly be considered as pro1teers
in such cases; no exception could be
made concerning doctors, for although
the latter did not technically receive
wages" their services came within
the accepted meaning of work"

Sh0pmen. Roads unable TO DO so, par
ticularly carriers reaching into the
producing bituminous fields, may be
taken over and operated by the fed
eral government.
DRESIDENT LEWIS Of the mine
workers made a definite move for
settlement of the coal strike by calling
joint wage conference Of operators
and miners Of the central competitive
bituminous field, to be held in Cleve-
land August Z. Unfortunately, the OPP
orators, or most of them, refused to
attend.
Meanwhile Henry B. Spencer, who
was appointed federal fuel distributor,
and his committee and subcommittee
began functioning actively. According
to Mr.. Spencer's plan, the federal or
ganization will cover the distribution
of available supplies among the rail-
ways, federal institutions and states,
and the governors of the states will
handle local supplies. State fuel COM
mittees were called on to report at
once the consumption of coal in their
territories by utilities, industries and
households and to submit list of
those who should receive priorities.
These state committees are also made
entirely responsible for the prevention
of profiteering and extortion in the
sale and distribution of coal within
their respective states.
Governor McCray of Indiana took
in the matter of getting out COAL The
miners of the state refused to issue
permits to sufficient men to operate
the mines for emergency purposes, so
the governor opened two strip mines in
Clay county under the protection of
800 state troops as preliminary
measure and declared state of mar
tial law to exist in that pant of the
county. These mines are in the hands
of a receiver appointed by the federal
court, and the governor called atten-
ton to the fact that this places the
United States government behind
them. Mr.. McCray also called con-
ference of the governors of Pennsylva-
MIA, Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Kentucky
and Wisconsin. Governor Preus of
Minnesota says the coal situation in
the Northwest is more threatening
than ever, and he has asked the gov
errors of Iowa, Wisconsin and North
and SCUM Dakota to meet with him
in st. Paul August 10. In Wisconsin
the bottom of the coal bin is in sight
and, at the request of the state fuel
commission, all ornamental and dis
play electric lighting has been discon-
tinued.

French citizens contracted by Germans
before the war, and last week France
grew tired of this and brusquely noti-
fed Berlin that unless assurance of
the payment of 100000 by August
10 were received within four days
France would impose penalties of an
economic and financial character It
was stated in Paris that these penal
ties would include the seizure of such
German Industrial enterprises as are
still tolerated in Alsace-L Lorraine. 1t
may be some industries in occupied
Germany will be seized. A still more
elaborate scheme was proposed by
members of the French parliament to
Premier Poincare. This is nothing less
than the separation of the Rhineland
from Germany, giving it a parliament
and government and financial regime
supervised by the allies. All Prussian
officials would be ousted.
Great Britain sent note to all the
allies explaining that Americas atti-
tude concerning war debts made it nee
essary for Britain to collect from her
debtors unless all the inter-allied in
debtedness is Cancelled. The other

directed solely to America, and in

CHICAGO'S street car strike came
" along according to, schedule. Some
10000 employees of the surface and
elevated lines quit early Tuesday
morning and no attempt was made to
take the cars out of the yards. Motor
vehicles of all descriptions were called
into service and on the first day there
was a terrific congestion Of traffic. By
Wednesday the police, motor clubs and
individual motorists had worked out
system that brought the situation
almost to normal, and many Chica-
goan began to wonder if the city
couldn't get along without the noisy
street and elevated cars. Also they
learned the worth of one-way street
regulations in the business center.
Toward the end of the week peace
negotiations were resumed, but the To-
cal president Of the employees said he
saw no prospect for an early settle
ment. The men are fighting not only
proposed wage reduction, but nine
hour day. Chances of an order by the
state public utilities board reducing
fares and politics enter into the Chi
cago situation, and it was frequently
and openly asserted that the strike
was a put up job" to prevent the fare
reduction and to deal blow to Mayor
Thompson and his organization. The
mayor has long promised 5-cent fare
and last week tried to take steps to-
ward the establishing Of a municipal
bus line to supplant the street cars.
