"The Lady In the Case"

To the Editor Of the Eucrin0 Public Led0cr.
Sir-From Doom not long age came
information that the former German
Emperor was about to remarry. On
the heels Of this an astonished world
wss notified that he was cncountering
opposition in his nuptial plans. How
ever, William caused the said plans to
20 forward uninterruptcdly. and n re-
cent cable dispatch designated Novcm.
Der ; as the date of the marriage.
When the news that Herr IIohenzol-
lcrn's purpose TO attach to himself
new wife had met disnpproval in his
immediate family was bruited abroad.
m rose a certain element of the general
public to inquire why this lonely old
man should be denied the boon of In
lividual freedom In his declining years.
All his life. until November, 1918,
they went on TO argue. he has been
hcdged about with wall of formality,
rules laid down. preccdents prescribed,
so that even in the hour Of his might
lest power as Kaiser he yet had to hc
circumspert and regard the conven-
tiOnalities.
When William fled from the wrath Of
the people he had plagued beyond hu-
man endurance, he shed all that sort of
thing-by compuision, TO be sure--but
Ilohenzolerh' apologists argue that
since 1t fell away from him as a worn
out garment when no abdicated, the
people had no further interest in him or
his affairs. They relate the fact that
Holland provides him asylum, American
publishers afford him an income. and
he Is able to support wife.
So. these curious minded persons
urge il th" lady in the case is willing
whose business is It If the head Of the
liohen2ollern family wants to wed once
in Il ceremony where no political or
dynnStlr considerations enter or have
to be consulted! Wilhelm. they con
rlude. IS now free moral agent, in

All, 10 consult the bride. The qups-
tion arises among hard headed folks
h"rcabouts, what's TO be thought of the
moral courage Of n woman who's ready
to sacrifice her own individual freedom
to the caprice of man whose whole
lifc has shown him TO be the quintes-
renee Of selfishncss that led him to
plunge civilization into frenzy Of
despair, and whose chief memorial will
be the millions of lives sacrificed to
his lust for dominion: The LADY in

S!r-Thcre will be no searching Of
suspected rum vessels beyond the three
mile limit. Tho dry navy WAS called
off some days ago. Seizure OF any YES
sci beyond The three mile limit. the

established that the vessel had made

Ardent prDh!bitionists receive this

welcome the intelligence with satlsfac-
ton that President Harding and his
advisers have not been stampeded by
dry lobbyists into ignoring one Of the
most important features Of international
law.
The usage Of centuries has established
that the territorial rights of any coun-
try do not extend more than three miles
beyond itS coast line. Beyond the three
mile limit the seas are free; the rights
Of all nations are equal in time OF
peace, at least. There was not the

right 10 search vessels within twelve
miles OF the coast.

His Feet still on the Ground

To the Editor Of the Eventno Pubic Lod0,T;
Sir-One Of the few men who still
keep their feet on the ground and whose
mental operations remain sane and sem
sible IS Calvin Coolidge, Vice Presi-
dent Of the United States. Modestly,
from time to time, he makes public nd
dresses, in the course Of which he GUS
tomarily gives fresh -minted courage to
ideas Of government that recall attention
TO the fundamental and concrete prin-
ciplcs which actuated the founders of
the Republic. Here is recent example
and one wcll-worth remembering:
'Thc world today is filled with n
grcnt impatience of the things that are.
and is credulously turning toward
those who expect that n change of in
stitutions would somehow bring about
perfection. 1t Is not n change that is
needed So much in our Constitution
and laws ns there is need Of living in
accordance with them
Here we have the secret Of genuine
and h"althful progress. Th" insti,u-
tionS of this Nation are sound. They
are based on fundamental principles of
right md justice. Upon them the Na-
ton has risen to greatness and its
people have lived in comfort and plcn-

Letters to the Editor
The Price Of Anthracite

To tho Editor Of the Evcnino Public Lcdocr:
Sir-Whcn anthracite prices get too
high, said Scranton writer in the
FUBLIC LEDGER recently, the public,
inevitably will turn TO the use OF
bituminous coal or other fuels. He re-
minds the public that innumcrabc in
rentors are now making study OF pos
siblc substitutes for anthracite for do
nestle use and mentions both the re.
cent adaptation of oil for furnaces and
the prospects for success of the gasiticd
oil and disassociatcd water gases.
Consumers will not buy anthracite
when the diifcrcntial between that and
bituminous amounts to So or 81 ton,
he says. Some years ago, when he
gathered statistics on the subject, the
average consumption in cities was LOO
tons If the dffcrential was 50 to 500
the ton, but the average dropped to 20
tons when the dffcrcntinl was from
800 to So and to 10 tons when the
diffcrcntia was 81 or more. He sug-
gests that the consumers will turn to
bituminous and its by-products or
other substitutes If the price Of anthra-
cite continues to rise. That probably
will be tho effect this winter unless
there is a runaway market.
With miners getting the same wages
now as they did before the strike, and
with other mine costs down only
slightly. if at all, the tendency OF
prices is toward higher,
rather than lower, levels. But the
growth of the use of substitutes and
their increasing efficacy will act as a
deterrent 10 high prices under other
wise normal conditions. The facts as
here stated even suggest that anthracite
prices must drop if tho industry IS to
survive. IIOI ISEIlOIbER.
