CHAPTER v
The Melting Mountains

TACK and Janet sat on their noun
y tains of ice cream wondering what
they would do with the feast their
wishes had brought them. They
couldn't eat another mouthful OF Ice
cream, nor drink another drop of root
beer or lemonade. Neither could they
give away the huge peaks OF frozen
sweetness.
But as Jack gazed down the noun
tain side toward the river OK root Deer
he gave cry of surprise.
"Why, the root beer river is turning
pink he said.
At the very same moment Janet gave
a startled squeal.
"And the river of lemonade Is turn
ing brown" she said.
Jack took closer look at the root
beer river and at the pink streaks that
were changing its color.
The pink is coming from my straw
berry ice cream mountain he shouted.
1.-THE big bonfire is melting the ice
cream
And Janet in a glance saw this was
true. The big bonfire for which they
had wished when shivcring from cold
was melting the ice cream as the spring
sun melts the snow of winter.
LET MS put out the fire. shouted
Jack. But they couldn't put out the
fire, although they threw melting icl
cream upon it. The bonfire was magic
fairy bonfire and couldn't be put ouI
ly anything wet.
Indeed the fire seemed to burn the

LEGAL CONTROL
Of COAL PRICES
BELIEVED NEAR
Voluntary Pay Plan Breaks
Down Under PanicIy
Market.
BY international News Service.

Legal control of the price and dis
tribution Of coal-but especially the
price--loomed appreciably nearer to-
oay as a result of general disre-
safd Tor the fair price" scale by
producing operators.
The voluntary fair price" plan
has broken down under the impact
OF panicky market, and coal today
Is selling for prices that range all
the way from $3.50 ton to $3.50,
as against the $3.50 agreement estab.
nshed by Secretary Hoover, and as
against the price of $2.10 when the
coal strike began on April /. g.,
President Harding may make tine
subject OF coal regulation the sub
3ect Of a special message to Congress,
Tor regardless Of the settlement
reached at Cleveland. it was gen.
orally admitted today that the coun-
try will go through the winter on
short rations. ...
Secretary of Commerce Herbert
Hoover will transmit his ideas on
The subject to Senator Borah RepD
OF Idaho in few days. Borah is
planning to father legislation for
emergency enactment.
Senator Calder Rep.) Of New York
also Is planning legislation. Calder
believes a system of zones should be
established in order to make the
price Of a ton of coal conform to
the cost of production.
Federal regulation Of the coal in
dustry, similar to the regulation Of
the railroad industry, will not be at
tempted at this session of Congress,
It was generally conceded today.
Even those who are most energetic
in urging regulation believe 1t should
not be attempted in view Of the legis-
lative jam. Price control this session
and permanent regulation next ses-
sion il the plan most favored by all
factions.
