UP TO COAL DEALERS

T'HE coal miners forfeited what i,ttls la, 81,
had on public sympathy by their arbitrary attemn+
to force a compliance with their demands throueb
threat of fuel famine. But they are now at work and
public attention will be to the mine operators
ana coal retailers to how they going to treat the
consumers of fuel
Fair play on their part will win popular approval
that viii stand them In good stead IN future contro
versies with the miners.
several states including Delaware have found It sd-
visabe TO appoint fuel administrators whose duty q is
not only to supervise the distribution of coal TO
eumers most in need but also foresta any
to souge the public by the imposition of excessive
prices
1t is up the coal dealers whether the adrniustra

REFUND POLICY

yIE foreign debt refunding commission is to adopt
Il policy OF greater nrmness in dealing with the
debtor nations.
Many OF the smaller governments said to be sub
ordnatng their American obligations to other objects
OF expenditure.
It is understood that Rumania, although owing the
United States about s41.oOoooo, is contemplating the
issuance of 100000 900 In bonds the payment Of
which would take precedence all other obligations
It is said that Rumana thus far has ignored the note
from Washington that the American government is
ready to negotiate repayment OF the loans.
There is no reason for expecting debt money from
any of the debtor countries in the future except
Great Britain but the policy Of frankness ex-
pected to bring the matter TO head

Der OF people in the United States"
Only one witness at all the field

host unhesltatingly placed priority
on irrigation.

keynote Of American thought. Far

Of irrigation.
Six million horsepower electric
