CITY OF REFUGEES
Saloniki Unable to Care for all Fugi-
tives From Oppressed Countries

Saloniki with it's 100000 population
and its ninety-nine minarets gives
shelter to more refugees than any
other city in the world. Crowded
within its narrow and shattered walls
are 10000 Greek and Macedonian refu-
gees, 10000 exiles from Russia and
an uncounted number of fugitives
from Armenia, the Caucasus and other
oppressed countries.
Most of them have a pitiful exis-
tence. A crust Of black bread and a
cup of watery soup daily is all that
keeps them from the grave.
The Greek government has not the
means to care properly for. this great
host of indigents. All its money is

ISSUE OF THE COAL STRIKE
Whoever Wins the Public Will Have
to Lose.

to Lose.
The issue of the coal strike, both
in the anthracite and the bituminous
districts, are so far from clear that II
will be hard to decide, even when 1t Is
all over, whether anybody won or not
or whether there was anything to win.
The bituminous miners have voted
to strike for a renewal of the existing
wage scale; they have also agreed to
meet the operators to discuss the
matter. The operators, on the other
hand. have refused to meet 'represen-
tatives of the miners. They insist on
strike. No doubt the men need all
the wages they are receiving, yet the
soft coal industry is so much over
manned, ver-capitalized and override
veloped that there are not wages and
profits enough to go around.
Anthracite production is not over
manned or mismanaged. 1t is one OF
the most profitable industries In the
country and could almost certainly
afford to pay a wage increase. But
the anthracite miners are fairly well
paid already. Though they are strik-
ing technically for more money, what
they really wanted was vacation,
and the operators were quite willing
to grant 1t in the hope Of propping
their summer market.
If the bituminous operators win,
then, it will mean that the union Is
broken and the miners are to work
for less than a living wage. If the
anthracite operators win, it will mean
only that the vacation is over. If the
bituminous miners win, it will mean
that many union miners will have to
go out Of business because Of the i'm
possibility of competing with the non
union fields-a healthy deflation, but
accompanied by lack Of jobs. If the
anthracite mines win, it will mean
raise in wages which is probably
unnecessary. And in any case the
public will lose-New York World.
