HIRAM JOHNSON MAY BECOME
CHAIRMAN.

1t is not unlikely that Senator Johnson of Cafor-
MIA will be Chairman of the Senate Committee on
Territories in the next Congress-that is OF course
if he should be fall and continue to be
a Republican and the Republicans should retain a
majority in the Senate Senator johnson ranks third
on the Committee on Territories. Senator New has
been eliminated from any chance of being chairman
again by his defeat for denomination in Indiana.
Senator Mclean of Connecticut ranks second the
committee but he is chairman of the Committee on
Banking and Currency. Senators only have chair
manshp EACH and it is not likely that the Connecti
cut Senator, should he be reelected would relnquish
the headship of the important committee of which he
is now chairman for the lesser honor of the Terri
tories Committee. Senator Cummins is third on the
Territories Committee, but he like Senator Mclean,
already a craftsmanship that of the Interstate Com
merce Commit ee-that he is likely regard more
highly than the under discussion. Senator John
son comes next on the Territories Committee and as
on Patents, relatively unimportant assignment he
would probably accept the Craftsmanship that will be
vacated by Senator News defeat
Should Senator Beverdge elected, GER
tanty by any means it is likely that the Seattle
Times Washington correspondent made shrewd
guess when he said he would be added to the Com
mittee Territories. He chairman of that COM
mittee during his former tenure in the Senate and it
would be quite natural thing If he given a
place it. However, If Senator Beveridge should
follow closely the principles he enuncated during his
primary campaign in Indiana he ought not to be un-
satisfactory the committee.
OF course If the Democrats should by chance cap
ture the Senate the chairman of the Committee on
Territories would be Senator Pttman of Nevada
should he be reelected.

THE COAL SITUATION.

One OF the results of the coal strike has been a
more careful study of coal mining in the country
the wages, hours and working condition of the en-
ployees the profits of the employers and the supply
and demand that we have had for the last several
years The disclosed facts show that the country is
prepared to produce more coal than be marketed
during these slack times They show, also appar-
entity that measured by daily earnings wages of
the employees have been high-perhaps too high for
coal to be sold cheaply it ought be in order
to compete with the product of other countries How
ever owing to the inability of the operators to sell
coal as fast it be mined. coal miners have
been compelled to work only part time, and there
fore, measured in monthly yearly periods in many
cases the miners have not been able make enough
money to supply properly the necessities of life
Miners want to meet the situation by making the
hours of employment shorter with the wages to re-
main they or better They say this is necessary
in order to permit the coal miners to live as work
ingmen ought to live. On the other hand the coal
operators contend that this would add the cost
of producing coal and that the already it too
great.
: 1t would seem that the conclusion of the Russell
Sage Foundation that have too many coal miners
is probably at the of the dilemma, that the
matter will be properly solved until means

The Stock Market Index.
New York Post. J

An unbroken series of million share days on the
Stock Exchange which stretches back to the begin
ming of April and which attended by a consider
able increase values has raised lively difference
of opinion to it's significance and desirabilty. IL
is commonplace of finance that the stock market
approaching changes in business, both ia
vorable and unfavorable 1t is clear, furthermore,
that fair of recovery in securities prices
from the low of last year is warranted by the I'M
provement in business already achieved and in pros
pect The question is whether the appreciation in
values has gone too fast and whether speculative
movement has been building which threatens mis-
of credit.
In a recent speech the Controller of the Currency
came out fatty in criticism of present stock market
activity his opinion that two million share days
have justification at the present juncture and
that such speculation actually threatens to absorb
funds which will be needed by the trade

that prices discount a very generous revival in
general business and that this mprov ement should
materiaze before further advances achieved.
Easy money admittedly has been of the as
sistng in this years bull movement Frozen
credits have thawed, commodity prices have fallen
depressed trade has made but limited demands on
the banks, and in consequence have been
released. Interest rates have fallen and business
men and investors have placed their idle fund in
securities Money continues, however to grow
cheaper and the commercial demands for credit are
easily satisfied The volume of stock market loans is
still moderate. Actually the conditions which the
Controller fears does not exist and is not in sight
For the next few months the problem of the banks
is likely be that of finding a profitable for
their funds rather than to struggle with shortage

THE NEW IDEAL OF NORMAL.

Normay surely is good goal, but like the
golden it is rather elusive Most people who talk
loosely about getting back to normal conditions have
vaguely in mind some time before the war, but there
is agreement to tho time when American
industry and general business conditions in the
happy state thought of Is normal.
The steel industry is spoken of pretty good
barometer of business Steel is picking up There
more orders for it and the manufacturers already
beginning to raise questions the time for de-
livery. Such is the report of of the authori
tative trade reviews 1t is estimated production
already at from 60 20 per cent capacity
Specifically this estimate does not seem so stimu
lating but again the question of standards
The fact is that IS of present capacity
pretty close to the full volume of output years
1912 and 1913, usually thought of normal. Nearly
all the essential industries greatly expanded
during the war In the way all judgments of
effort of accomplishment and of values were much
enlarged. 1t therefore becomes little difficult
to know what to expect when the new normal state
shall have been attained.
IL ought to be reasonable suppose that normal
