VALUES LOST
IN SERVICE COSTS
The Expense Of Distribution
Increases Cost of Living
UNWEILDY SYSTEM BLAMED
We Have Now Reached A Point Where
1t Costs More To Distribute
And Serve Than It Does
To Produce.

Washington.-A principal cause for
increasing living costs in the United
States is the "unwieldy system OF
marketing and distributing commodi.
ties, including relatively inefficient
means and uneconomic methods,
coupled with wasteful practices ON the
part OF the public" according to find
ings just made public by the joint
Congressional Commission on Agri.
cultural Inquiry.
I'VE have now reached a point
where it costs more to distribute and
serve than 1t does to produce" Chair.
man Sidney Anderson said in a fore
cast on the Commissions report
Commodity values are lost in mass
of service costs, and the time has

mental problem of the economic dis.

DENIES IMMUNITY
TO LABOR UNIONS
Supreme Court Renders De-
cision in Coronado Case
RIOTS IN ARKANSAS LOCAL
Lower Court Is Reversed-Suprem
Tribunal Finds No Evidence OF
Effort To Restrain inter-
state Commerce.

Neutrality-suspicious. organizations,
although unincorporated, may be pros
ecuted for violations of the Sherman
antitrust law, the Supreme Court
held in an opinion delivered by Chief
Justice Taft. The decision came in
the celebrated Coronado coal case, in
volving strikes in Arkansas in 1919
as result of which the United Mine
Workers of America were found
guilty of restraint of interstate COM
merce and damages of 100000 were
awarded against the organization by
the district court, which damages
were trebled as provided under the
antitrust law.
The Supreme Court, in careful
analysis of the evidence presented in
the case, found that the facts Incl
dent to the strike were not convinc-
ing that it's object was to restrain in
terstate commerce. In fact Chief
Justice Taft stated that as much as
the court would have been pleased to
aid in the punishment of the arson
felonies committed by the strikers it
was forced to the conclusion that the
lawlessness was strictly local and
not associated with an effort to re-
strain interstate commerce.
The international officers of the
mine workers union were held by the
court not to have been liable for
trial as there was no evidence that
they had either participated in, au-
thorized or approved the strike.
The fine imposed by the lower court
will, therefore, not be imposed by the
new form of decree which that court
will enter in conformity with the SUI
preme Court decision of today.
The Coronado coal case was one of
the most important pieces of labor
litigation ever to come before the ma,
tion's highest tribunal.
The court held that labor organiza-
lions can be held liable for property
and other damages caused by the
acts of members during the strikes.
The decision was delivered by Chief
Justice Taft.
The case was brought against the
United Mine Workers of America by
the Coronado and other coal COM
panies, arising out of the Arkansas
strikes of 1914.

FERRIS WHEEL is DOOMED.
Relic OF Paris Exposition OF 1900
Being Dismantled.

Paris.-Americans visiting Paris
will no longer see the famous Ferris
wheel, which, with the Eiffel tower,
for 20 years has been one of the most
familiar landmarks of the French
capital. Modern needs have decreed
that the colossal wheel make way for
more profitable investment. Work
men are now dismantling the huge
steel structure, the axle of which
alone weighs $4,000 pounds and is set
q distance of 1874 feet from the
ground.
Built in 1900, at the time of the
Paris Exhibition, from plans of an
American engineer whose name it
bears, the gigantic wheel has afforded
pleasure and amusement to hundreds
of thousands of Parisians and foreign
visitors, young and old.

Impatient for Seasons Start
Approves Spring Training
for Umpires.

Kenesaw Mountain Lands reported nj
the Dodgers training camp here this
afternoon and inspected manager VIII
bert RobiIson's array OF talent. IL
rained this morning. but shortly after
noon real Florida sunshine prevailed
and tho players we're able to don their
uniforms. While they were working out
Judge Lands arrived at the park, ac-
companied by President Ebbets. The
players were lined up across the infeld,
and while motion picture machines were
put into action the Judge shook hands
with every member of the club. This
is for posterity," said the Commissioner er
as he faced the battery OF movie men.
Iandis, Ebbets and Robbie then
walked arm in arm to the side lines.
and the players started 10 resume prac-
tice stunts. No game was played The
Judge looked on, and once, as a ball
thrown by Dutch Ruether landed
squarely in the catcher's mitt, the Com
missioner remarked that the noise made
as the ball struck the glove sounded
bully.
II can hardly wait for the opening OF
tne mayor league races JuSI tnink, one
month from to-day the big league clubs
will start their fight for the two PEN
nants. 1 hope when September rolls
around every club in the National and
every team in the American League will
be fighting neck and neck for high
honors"
Judge lands looked President Eb-
bets square in the eyes and said
Colonel. I am seriously considering
issuing an order that would compel UNI
pires to indulge in spring training. 1t
is not right to expect a man to step
behind the plate and umpire a ball
game in the middle of April as well as
he can sixty days later. Like ball play
ers. 1t is safe to believe that the UNI
pires. too. can get out OF form during
the off season. Yes. sir. I think a little
practice each spring would not do them
any harm"
President Ebbets agreed with the
Commissioner. Judge lands then
changed the subject by remarSing that
Manager Robbie had fine squad Of
big fellows trying to graduate I'm their
profession. Before he left the park
L.andis challenged Ebbets to play golf.
The Flatbush squire accepted the chai-
lenge and the game will be played to-
morrow morning.
