VOTED IN FAVOR OF TENANT

Columbia, jan l3--The House of
Representatives voted in favor of
the tenant "Wednesday night, when
it killed a bill, introduced by Repre-
sentative Mcmillan, of Charleston,
which was described as a measure
to benefit the landlord. It was a bill
to amend section 1901 and section
1902 of the code of 1912, relating
to parol leases, so as to define the
termination of such leases, the aim
being to recognize the renewal
month by month Of such leases. A
lengthy debate was waged over the
measure, and an effort to make
amendments was defeated. The bill
was finally killed.
The House also killed bill, in
troduced last year by Representa-
tive Bradford Of York, and Dickson
of Anderson, to reduce the license
fees charged against motor trucks.
Opponnts of the bill stated that they
believed such licenses should be- in
creased instead. Of reduced, as the
heavy trucks are injuring the roads.

REDUCTIONS IN RATES
...: ON COAL ARE URGED

Washington, Jan. 19.-Should the
Interstate Commerce Commission de-
eide as a result Of its present in
quiry that rate schedules may prop
erly be lowered, the lower rates
should be applied first to coal, the
commission was told today by j. D.
A. Morrow, vice president Of the
National Coal Association, who said
he spoke for 1000 mine operators
producing approximately sixty per
cent of the country's bituminous coal
The average freight paid on a ton
of coal at the present time between
the mines and points Of consumption
amounted to $2.27 while the price of
the coal at the mine was $2.13, said
Mr.. Morrow. He estimated that coal
rates had advanced from 75 to 200
per cent according to locality since
1914.
Railroads would be justified, Mr..
Morrow asserted, in making a reduc-
tion of rs cents ton on the average
haul by reason of the saving in their
operating costs which had already
been attained by reductions in the
price Of coal during the past year ad-
ded to the further savings they
would make from the lower freight
charge.
Quoting from reports to his asso-
citation from members, Mr.. Morrow
said that large part of the produc-
tion Of coal during the seven months
from April to October 81, 1921,
had shown an average loss of two
cents a ton for the producers with
conditions prevailing during Nov
ember and December which, would
make the loss even greater.
"The fact must be recognized" he
declared in concluding, "that high
freights are the chief element today
in the delivered cost of bituminous
COAL"
