TO REGULATE FRIGHTENING

That manufacturers of building material have agreed to enter into consent decree, designed to prevent price-fixing through their own national organization, and other trade practices, was announced by Col William Hayward, federal district attorney at New York, to the House committee. The agreement resulted from disclosures made during the investigations of the Lockwood committee in New York. It is tacit admis- sion that these concerns were able, through their national organization, to control prices. Any such power when exercised in restraint of trade and to keep down competition of firms not members of the organization, con- stitntes an illegal interference with interstate commerce. It is, in effect, trust or monop- oly. Most important of all, artificial manipu- lation of prices also imposes an unjust public burden. Other national trade organizations have been charged with similar practices and if the government can reach an agree ment with them, based on the decree in the case of building material firms, long step will be taken toward abolishing a practice that is one of the economic evils afflicting the country. It has cost the American peo- pie millions of dollars that might have been saved by buying in strictly competitive market.

TOLL OF THE OPEN CRATE

The open gate is already claiming it's annual toll of the winter months. The open grate has shown itself to be greedy de- vourer of coal without producing its equiva- lent in heat. The outlay for closing the open chimney and installing cast-iron stove is small. The stove will give twice the heat with half the cost of fuel and lessens labor and dirt. The open grate, unprotected by screen, invites danger and death without giving honest service in heat. Its elimina- ton will prove an economy in fuel and in the conservation of human life.

My Favorite Stories By IRWIN s. COBB
A STRANGER IN THOSE PARTS

John J. McGraw, manager of the Giants, is willing to give chance to every applicant who comes along seeking a place on his baseball team. The method has yielded him several good players, also at least one good laugh.
 One morning the club was at practice on the Polo Grounds when a lank youngster, evidently just from the country, got inside the inclosure somehow and made his way to where McGraw was sitting on the bench watching his performers cavort over the diamond.
 ''Mister McGraw," said the youth, "Pd like nightly to git chance to play ball for you"
 "What position do you play?" snapped McGraw
 Right field,' stated the youth.
 "All right; grab glove and go out yon- der and show me what you've got"
 The youngster shifted his weight from one leg to the other and looked at him appeal ingly.
 Heard what I told you, didn't you?" parked McGraw. "Go on out wonder and let me see what you can do.'
 HMister McGraw," said the youth; 'I'm stranger in this here town and this is the first time I've ever been up here, and I'd like to ask you which is right field in this parkw

CONGRESS SHIRKS ITS DUTY

One pertinent fact brought out in the de- bate between Senator Norris and Senator Ladd over the Ford bid for Muscle Shoals is that no proposals have been submitted by any other interests to take it's place and had 1t not been for MT. Fords offer the Muscle Shoals plants would have been scrapped or disposed of, piecemeal, at price far below their original cost and their potential value The spectacle of two prominent members of the agricultural "bloc" taking directly oppo- site views of the question does not indicate that there is any division of sentiment among the farmers regarding the disposal of Muscle Shoals. Senator Norris wants the property to be operated under govern ment control, plan that is impractical and contrary to public sentiment, for the public is opposed to the governments engaging unnecessarily in private business. Senator Ladd, more than Senator Norris, expresses the real attitude of the country and of the farmers in particular, who want the Ford bid accepted. As Senator Ladd well said |: "If there is any so-called Ford propaganda it comes from the American people,"
 Mr. Underwood reminded the Senate that MT. Ford was invited by the government to make an offer for Muscle Shoals. At that time the property was white elephant on it's hands and seemed destined to be junked, but as soon as MT. Ford submitted his bid the whole aspect of the situation immediate Unchanged. MT. Ford was charged with try ing to create vast monopoly at the expense of the people, although the initiative was ,a duty of Congress" as MT. Underwood de- clared, 'to accept or reject it (the Ford bid). There is no excuse for continued lack of ac. tion." The party in power is opposed to MT. Ford for political reasons and because of the strong pressure brought to bear by the interests fighting him. While it is un- willing to let him have Muscle Shoals, it is afraid to reject his offer because of the resentment against the republican party that would be aroused throughout the country, especially among the farmers who admins tered sharp rebuke to the republicans in the last general elections. MT. Ford has not received a square deal from Congress and neither have the American people,
 Senator Ladd said: .sMr Ford has offer ed the government so much more than any of those big interests primarily affected that all they can do is to rear back on their launches and spout their high-priced wis dom and protest. If the Ford offer is not the best for the people of the United States, why do not the interests propose something that is better?" This is the crux of the en- tire controversy. Dragging in the federal reserve act is beside the issue. Congress has no reasonable excuse to amend the Ford offer. It's function is solely to accept or reject; therefore its refusal to do either is to shirk it's responsibility. No better offer has been submitted; there is no likelihood that better offer will be submitted. In a matter concerning the national welfare, which should be above personal prejudice and partisan considerations, what is Con- gress going to do? The American people await an answer.

THE DOLLAR IN GERMANY

Americans are apt to suppose that only in this country does the value of the dollar affect the daily life of the people. In Eu- rope, however, the dollar is in many coun- tries the ultimate standard of computation. For example, the Germans know that their
 mark is worth so many to the dollar. When the number to the dollar falls they know that their mark is more valuable. When the number to the dollar rises, they know that their mark is less valuable. The peo- pie are reported as closely watching the cur rency quotations and using them as the basis of computing the prices of merchandise and living expenses. Spectators are also taking advantage of every opportunity to buy marks at low figure and sell them on the rise.
 Recently the rumor that American bank CTS would extend loan to Germany caused marks to increase in value from eight thou sand to five thousand to the dollar. Custom
 CTS of German stores immediately suspend
 ed their purchases in anticipation of cor responding reduction in retail prices. The merchants for time withstood the pressure,
 but later offered a twenty per cent. reduc- tion It was too late, however, for the peo- pie waited in hope of further discount which the merchants could not afford, though they were faced with the alternative of hav- ing great stocks of Christmas goods left on their hands. If they had offered further reduction they feared that the mark would again quickly depreciate, as it has already started to do and they would lose their goods as well as their profits.
 All this shows that the evil of deliber- ately deprecated currency is reacting to the confusion of the whole German fabric of
 business, both as regards proprietor and customer. Also, the hope of an American loan that has caused this furry in marks is itself dissipated by the very policy that has caused the marks debasement. Germany's sfinancial course is working seriously to her sown detriment without bringing the antic- pated result of relieving Germany from her debt burden. If German loan is desired, Germany must take measures to make that loan attractive in the only way in which a sloan can be made attractive, namely, by Showing unimpeachable claims to credit

The Peoples Forum
OPPOSES TRACK REMOVAL
le Editor of The Age-Herald:

To the Editor of The Age Herald
 I would like to add my protest to the re- moval of one track of the Belt Line Railroad on Avenue E. The company acquired this property on the franchise for the purpose of transferring freight from other railroads so as to facilitate the prompt delivery of car load lots to business people who were then located on the line and to encourage the location of others who have built to obtain the advantages it presented cntailing vast expenditures in erecting stores, warehouses, coal yards, etc., and to cripple this service would be, i'll my opinion, ingratitude on the part of, and taking unfair advantage, by the railroad company, of it's patrons whom they encouraged to build on this line. This is not Accomplishments by the public and is only suitable for the purpose it is now used, and every fair means should be used to prevent the removal. The value of the property would also be very much depre- ciated. J. L. YANCEY.

IT REM ANS AIT AUBURN

The decision of the trustees of the Ala bama Polytechnic Institute to entertain no proposal to remove the college to Montgom- cry will be received with satisfaction by most friends of the institution. As has been argued, there was no compelling reason why the college should be moved, and many substantial reason why it should not be moved. There is talk of referring the ques- ton to the legislature, but if the new con- struction is well under way by that time, 1t is not likely that any change will be ordered, even should the proponents of removal make case, as they have not yet done The question thus being disposed of, the cam paign in behalf of the endowment will doubt less proceed to satisfactory conclusion.
