HENRY FORD SAYS
"PLENTY OF COAL"

Henry Ford denies that there is
a shortage of coal. His represent
tatives have been doing some in-
vestigation recently and their re-
ports indicate to Mr.. Ford that the
coal brokers of the country have an
enormous supply on hand. Ford
says he could obtain enough coal
to cover tract of ten acres square
if he would submit to handing the
profiteers the price asked which
ranged from 100 to 800 per cent
above the normal cost. Without
doubt Ford,s knowledge of the sit
uation, his actions in refusal to ca
ter to the profteers and his deter
mination to fight them, are to be
commended and not lightly cousid-
cred.

The Department of Commerce
figures out that the crop shortages
in Europe will cause the need over
there of almost 600,000,000 bush
els of wheat, most of which wo ID
naturally have to come from the
United States and Canada. But
how the Europeans will be able TO
buy it is another question. The
Republican Congress has, at the
behest of tue manufacturers, practi-
cally shut our doors against impor-
tatious of manufactured goods; Eu-
rope has little else to sell; if she
can not sell to us, how can she buy
our wheat? The sauce which they
have concocted for the manufacture

mer's gander. To make the far
mer think he is getting fair deal,
they have put tariff tax on i'm.
ported wheat, but as we export
wheat instead of importing it, the
price of the article is not affected
by the tariff. The men who fixed
the rate knew this. If they did
what object could there be except
to try to make the farmer think Ee
is getting protection which he
does not get?

FOR WOMEN

Women do over 80 per cent of
ali the trading, spend 80 per cent
of the family income, and exercise
more or less influence over the ex-
penditure of the other 10 per cent.
In fact women are the great pur.
chasing agents for themselves.
their children, household furnish
ings, necessities, Injuries, etc.
When the merchant realizes the
vast influence of women in the re-
tail world. that they represent the
great consuming mass of people,
aud that to reach the people it ia
imperative to influence the women
first, then will the merchant be
started right and be prepared to
reach out after trade with some
assurance of success.
Advertising to women is busi-
mess problem for every merchant
to solve. The appeal must be prop
erly made. 1t is a well known fact
that over rs per cent of all adver-
tising is fruitless for the reason
that the advertising does not have
in it the right kind of appeal.
Women are always interested in
the kind, quality, color, style and
price of an article, and every ad-
vertisement should go carefully in-
to detail in regard to these matters.
They are very particular that all
goods they purchase for them
selves, their children and their
home have style, are seasonable and
priced right. Another important
thing for the advertiser to remem-
ber is that women insist upon hon.
esty in advertising and in business
dealings. They want no "just-as. ,
good" articles substituted-a GUS
tom which is frequently practiced
by some merchants that is always
reacting unfavorably. When wom-
eR have once lost faith in the sim
cerity of merchant it is difficult
to again win their confidence eth
er in him or his goods.
Advertising intended for women
should be a direct appeal to them.
The advertiser should put into his
ads straightforward, honest and
very specific talk on the goods for
sale, endeavor in every way to
please women. and gain and hold
their good will.

customary majority Topped off. Bnt
it is expected that Maine wonld 60
Republican, Jnst as it is expected
shat Georgia will so Democratic.
II Maine had gone Democratic
1here would be no sense in the Re-
publican party putting out ticket
next November, for their cause
would be- hopeless. just as would
he the situation of the Democrats
had Georgia gone Republican. But
the Maine Republicans were 90. un-
easy about the State that they did
sgreat deal of hard work and spent
much money and they got great
ly reduced majority. 1t is astraw
af considerable Significance, show
ing increasing discomfort with Be-
publican leadership and policies, if
such words can be used in connect
ing with the present chaotic aud
aeadless condition of the party.
The Boston Transcript, Repub-
lican to the core, bitterly complains
that there is no leadership in the
White Honse. No, and furthermore
that ia what the people voted for
in 1920, and emphatically it is ex-
actly what they got. One of the SER
ious complaints against Woodrow
Wilson WAS that he WAS too much of
q leader; the criticism even went
so far rs to denounce him as a ty-
rant who had usurped the func-
tions of Congress, which was, Of
course, untrue. The fact is that
the Constitution has in, il some
thing of the spirit Of the Roman
law which in time of great Nation
al crisis provided for the choosing
Of a dictator; it places in the Pres
ident's hands power more absolute
than those given to any monarch in
the world, powers so great that
they have never been defined. In
the World War both parties united
in giving him special powers such
as they deemed wise or expedient.
which President Wilson used with
courage, force and quick decision.
Like Aulus of the Seventy Fields,
he was made dictator for a great
emergency. But the people viewed
this power with doubt aud appre-
hension, and the partisan Republi-
cans who had joined in voting it
into his hands went out into the
country and Cried, 1--WE are losing
our liberties Wilson is a Czar!"
The people did not stop to ask j {
the new powers were necessary to
save the Nation, engaged in great
war, or if the President was using
these powers wisely, but-jealous
of our freedom. they listened to
the partisans who for party advan-
tage declared him to be an autocrat.
But when he came before a Re-
publican Congress elected in 1918
and asked Legislative reconstruc-
tion-a return to before the war
oonditions-that Congress refused
to comply, following Penrose's adj
vice to "let the people sweat" and
thus create still greater dissatisfac-
ton. They're still sweating.
So Harding was selected because
he was "a good scout" The ab-
senee of backbone and au under
shot Jaw were important, for under
the new scheme of the Republicans
the White House was to be gov
erned and controlled by sort of
group of elder statesmen, includ-
ing such as Lodge to furnish the

Similar Problem Elsewhere.
The situation at North Carolina is
similar to that which is arising at
other institutions which desire to
curb summer ball playing and which
fought for a real summer base ball
rule at the meeting of the conference
the rule finally adopted by the con-
ference allows college men to play
base ball during the summer for their
expenses, provided expenses do not
run more than 81 per day. This
rule allows man to engage in games
every day of the week for his ex-
penses andl Of course, it will, be easy
enough for a player to hold a sine
cure job on the side for extra cash.
