The fairy tale Of Paris belongs to
all of us, in whatever terms it may

curiously by comparison with a rather

For some it is Napoleon in his cooked

For still more it Is the Bots and the
elegance and luxury and beautiful

Senate Adopts Two Important Amend

BY EDWARD w. PICKARp

ID REFLECTIONS that the public would
have TO pay for actual and mag
mary losses due to the coal strike are
already being fulfilled. The operators
and dealers, many of whom must be
claSsed among the constituencies prof
iteers, are raising prices of fuel, de
spite the efforts of public officials, the
threats of congressional action and the
protests of the miners that the mine
owners have suffered little, if any, loss
because of the stoppage Of production.
In some sections of the country the
fuel shortage already is becoming
acute; in others there is plenty Of
coal. The railroads, it is asserted, are
not able to supply enough cars, but
that is always the case as winter APP
proacheS, which is one of the results
of the wretched lack of organization
of the coal industry.
The coal famine is especially threat
ening in New York and the Atlantic
coast region generally, because the an
thracite strike has not yet been set
tied. But at this writing there is
fair chance that the hard coal miners
will soon be back at work. Senators
Pepper and Reed of Pennsylvania drew
up proposals for resumption of work,
and the plan was submitted to the OPP
orators and the miners scale commit
tee at separate meetings 1t was UNI
derstood that the proposed agreement
required the return of miners to work
on the basis Of pay rates and working
conditions as they We're last April,
while the operators would be required
60 withdraw their inSistence that ar
hitraliOn be adopted as "A method of
fixing future wage scales. This, APP
parently, would be almost as complete
a victory for the miners as was that
won by the bituminOus miners, and as
temporary settlement of the troubles
and disputes.
Distribution of the coal is consd-
cred by the administration the great
present problem and President Hard
ing intends that all government agen-
cies shall be utilized to speed up
transportation of fuel. Secretary
Hoover is studying THE capacity of
the railroads to meet the emergency.
Heretofore, he said, the best continu-
Gus coal movement accomplished by
the railroads was on the basis of 49,
100000 tons a eek. There are at pres
ent, Mr.. Hoover declared, between 20
600 and $4,000 cars of coal on the sid
ings throughout the country and one
of the greatest problems is to get this
coal delivered There is. he added,
100000 tons Of coal loaded under spe-
cial prioritieS for the Northwest, which
has not moved i'm three weeks.
Federal coal committee officials are
discussing with the interstate com
merce commission plans for supplying
the Northwest with coal this winter.
If total facilities could be utilized it
would be possible to move 100000
tons Il week to the Great Lakes before
the close Of navigation, and it was
planned to supplement the port dump.
ings with al-rail shipments during the
winter to furnish the necessary fuel
for the Northwest.
