STATE CONTROL OF FREIGHT CHARGES
 NO LONGER EXISTS
Supreme Court Holds Congress Placed Regulations With
 I. C. C.

The authority of the Interstate Com merce Commission to regulate railroad rates within the borders of the states when they constitute an easonable discrimination against interstate rates has been sustained by a unanimous opinion of the United States Supreme Court. The opinion was written by Chief Justice Taft.
 The ruling was made on appeals ey the public service commissions of Wis consin and New York from the con- struction placed on the Cummins-Esch law by the Interstate Commerce Com mission. A large majority of state utility commissions united with the Wis consin case.
 The Supreme Court holds that Con- gress has absolute power to control transportation rates, lntrastate as well as interstate. If it deems it wise to take from stae commissions he power to regulate rates and confer 1t upon the federal tribunal, there Is nothing i'll the Constitution that forbids tf1si policy.
 Having imposed upon the Interstate Commerce Commission responsibility for establishing rates that will yield the carriers guaranteed return on their capital investments, the Supreme Court holds, 1t follows quite logically that the commission must have a free hand in controlling rates; otherwise the specific intent of Congress might be voided.
 The finding of the court means that a strong movement will at once be pressed to obtain legislation at the hands of Congress which will check the power of the Interstate Commerce Commission and restore to the state commissions rights which Congress in its transporta- ton act took from them.
 Bills repeating the rate-making pro- visions of the transportation act are now pending before Congress. State com missions will begin an earnest agitation for their early consideration and ap- Droval.

DEFEATING LABOR:
 IGNORE BIG PROFITS

New York, Mar. l0.-"It may be that the miners are receiving larger incomes than they need in the anthracite region, though no statistics have been advanced to prove that contention and the oper- ators have been careful to withhold from the public any figures which might make 1t possible to calculate the rela- tion of wages to profts," says the New York World. But the anthracite coal consumers corporation has decided af- ter an investigation, that the freight rate on coal should be $1,31 instead of 26l ton, and Senator Frelinghuysen has called the attention of the senate to pro- fits of 170 per cent on the books of the Reading Coal and Iron company for 1920. The Lehigh and Wilkes-Barre Coal company turned over a cash divi- dend of 150 per cent to its stockholders less than year ago. Other large cor porations in the. hard coal field have done equally we'll"

SAVIORS STRIKE CANADA.

Torontoo, Ontario Mar. 10. - The crowd that launched the Workers party of America in New York recently, moved over to this city and have launch ed the Workers party of Canada.
 The same tctaics were used ir both places - these saviors advise that their dissguisess be continued until some dark rainy night when the capitalists ain't lookin'. Then the communists will let out a war whoop, assemble the clans and set up proletarian dictatorship.
 The thing IS so easy that some of the delegates marveled that it hasn't been doped out before. The revolutionists insisted that their disguise must be per- feet, if they ar to succeed. This eau ton was stressed by Delegate J. Kava- nagh of Winnipeg, who said: "We would like to have come out as a com munist party, but that might not be in our interest in the east"
 The sponsors for the new party were former advocates of the one big union, which makes way for the new toy.

State Department Wants Advance Information Before Bankers

Washington, Mar. 1O.-Notice was is sued by the state department that the government expects American bankers to advise it fully of the details of for eign loans with other governments or municipalities abroad before negotiation of such loans are concluded
 The notice served by the state depart ment on the bankers was said at the White House to be merely reiteration of the attitude taken by tn administra- ton at the conference between repre- sentative bankers, the president and cer- tain cabinet members last summer. It was said that the principle question at this time was whether loans to private individuals and foreign governments of the American govrnment

LLOYD GEORGE RULE IS THREATENED BY
 LABOR COALITION
British Premier May Be Forced to Call General Election Very
 Soon.

London, Mar. 1O-Lloyd-G George is in a bad way. It is not believed that the nimble ltle Welchman vii be able to get through the summer without calling a general election, and the wise ones among the political observers believe such an election would result in the con- trol of the government passing to com bination of the laborites and the reor- ganized liberals under the leadership of Herbert Asquith
 There have been three by-elections within two weeks to fill vacanies All three divisions went for Lloyd-G George in the last general election, but in these special elections two elected straight-out laborites and one returned an Asquith liberal.
 The Asquith followers and the labor ties have formed a coalition of their own. In the districts where labor si strong Asquith refrains from naming a candidate, and labor returns the favor in those districts where the liberals seem to have the better of it.
 The isues which threaten to break the back of the Lloyd-George govern ment are unemployment and education. yd-George slashed the appropriation for education by $8OOOOOO0, almost a third of the current years education es- inmates.
 The effect of this assault on the coun- trys' schools has been electrical.
 Il am not a member of the labor party" said Viscount Haldane, speaking i'll the House of Lords But it IS the only party that is really keen on edu- cation. University teachers and pro- fessors are becoming labor candidates, and people who do not belong to the laboring classes are Hooking to the ranks of labor"
 In apealing for power the leaders of the labor forces refuse to "pussy-fot. "
 When we come into power," said Frank Hodges, secretary of the Miners Federation of Great Britain, "the great national services must pass out of pri- vate hands. The land, mines, and rail- ways must be the property of the na- tion- Our unemployed army must dis appear. Our burdens of taxation must be lightened: Our educational status must be retrieved (we shall soon be the least educated nation in Europe), and our people must be housed.'

EDITOR HAS VERY
 SUBTLE DEFENSE
 FOR MINE OWNERS

New York, March Io-The blue ribbon can be awarded the New York Times for it's subtle defense of coal owners III western Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois who broke their agreement with mine employees
 The Times says that the recent meeting of miners, railroad employees and longshoremen IS a triple alliance with it's unblushing threat of tying up essential utilities and basic in dustries." No representative of these organizations made such threat, but that IS of little moment to the Times, which gives his illustration of how public opinion" is molded
 "In the soft coal industry the situation is far more satisfactory and further still from being clear. An agreement to confer was signed in 1920, but the operators claim,s on rather shadowy grounds, that it has since been superseded. In ordinary circumstances there should be a con- ference, or no agreement But the circumstances are very far from or dinary. If the unionized fields are to compete with the non-unionized fields, it is manifestly necessary to reduce wages and increase production; yet the Hl1ncTS demand a continuance or the wartime wage and in addition a six-hour day and a five-day week. It Is true that these demands were car ried by radicals in the face of pro- test from more substantial and ex- perienced leaders. But that does not alter the fact that the radicals are in the saddle. Their influence was again i'll evidence in the recent formation of the triple alliance,' which it's un- blushing threat of tying up essential utilities and basic industries. These measures were apparently intended to intimidate the enemy, but their only effect has been to alienate friends. In the early stages of the present agita- ton the miners had good hope of enr listing the national administration in the final settlement; but in face of the hollow threat of the triple alliance, Secretary Hoover gave them the cold shoulder and hope of help from Washington is dead In labor strife, as in actual warfare, there are situa- tions in which conference is no longer possible"

 Article I. The associated organ izations represented in the trans portation and mining industries ot the country have been compelled to bear the brunt of unwarranted attacks up on their integrity and unjust and ln- equitable changes in their wage schedules and conditions. The indus trial and financial interests respon- sible for this conditoin are not yet satisfied and are >conducting gigantic propaganda looking towards further wage reductions and additional changes in working conditions that will be detrimental to the people e1n- ployed in these industries. It, there fore, becomes necessary for the. rep resentatives of the associated organ izations to assemble and take cognlz- ance of this situation. lmpeiled by the necessity of effecting co-ordlna- tion of our strength we declare for closer cooperation of our forces which will operate to more effective ly protect the interests of those en- gagged in these essential basic indus tries. After mature deliberation, and with a full sense of our responsibil- ity, we declare that the mutuality of interests of the employees in these basic industries must be recognized and we assert our purpose to apply every honorable method to secure adequate compensation for service rendered and to maintain proper American standards of living.
 Article II. When it becomes ap- parent that any one, or group of the associated organizations, is made the victim of unwarranted attacks, or its integrity is jeopardized, it will be- come the duty of the representatives of each of the associated organiza- situation. Ways and means may be considered, and applied to best meet the emergency. Action taken under this section is subject to approval by each organization represented.
 Article III. To facilitate the conduct of the business of the asso- ciated organizations an executive committee is hereby created com posed of the chief executives of the associated organizations, or their specifically designated representatives. It shall be the duty of the executive committee from time to time to make such recommendations to the associ- ated organizations as may in its Judg- ment be deemed wise and to assem- ble the full conference of associated organizations when conditions make such action necessary.
 Article ". This plan shall be- come operative when ratified by the constitutional authorities of each asSociated organization"

have nothing to conceal relative tC
my plans. I know that we have a
mighty good we'll at Kelvin. AS a
result of that discovery and the con
slant work and study which | have
been doing up there for the last two
years past, I believe that the field
will be extensive and the sands wiz
produce oil in commercial quantities
for years to come. Every condition
points to the accuracy of such deduct
ions.
So believing, ] am laying my plans
for the development Of my interests
and the interests of those who may
be associated with me. The Gordon
Royalties, Inc, is just one
step in that direction. | have gather
ed together a small group of men to
aid me in my operations in whom |
have the utmost confidence.
s'These men will be associated
with me in further extensions of
our plans which contemplate the
building of pipe lines and refineries
and the drilling of many new wells
before the end of the year."
