TURNOVER IN
SENATE MAY UN-
SEAT NEWBERRY

Washington, D. c., July 8-The re-
suit of recent and Forthcoming cleo
tons may cause Senator Newberry OF
Michigan, to lose his seat in the SEN
ate. The elimination of Senator New
of Indiana, and McCumber of North
Dakota, means two more votes against
Newberry which will cause his defeat
in the next session of congress. Anti
Newberry senators believe that the
successors to New and McCumber will
be the cause of Newberry's defeat.
Only one more vote is needed to I'M
seat him providing the rest of the sen
ate vote the same as they did Janu-
airy 18th, last when Newberry re-
tanned his seat by vote Of As to Al.
The one vote will be asked of the
people of Michigan, Newberry's own
state. Representative Kelley, who is
opposing Townsend for the Michigan
republican nomination for senator to-
day begins his active speaking cam
paign in speech at Charlotte, Mich
igan. He will announce in the speech
that if he is nominated he will vote to
unseat Newberry.

COAL MINING COSTS
GIVEN TO CONGRESS

,, Washington, July S.-In transmit
| ting to congress data relating to in
vestment and profits in the btumin-
GUS coal mining industry, the federal
trade commission points out the de-
STABILITY of obtaining current infor-
| nation as to the cost of producing
coal. The data furnished congress is
supplemental to preliminary report
made public few weeks ago. The
letter of transmissal says:
''In the absence Of exact current
information which the commission,
beginning in 1920, planned to get, but
which, at the instance of the National
Coal association. it was enjoined from
getting, some rough method Of esti-
mating the profit yielded by given
price must be resorted to.
s'The information now presented
shows, for the various mining dist
riots in the United States, the aver
age investment per ton for the min
ing of coal for a large proportion of
the bituminous mining operations,
and these figures are believed to be
typical with respect to the invest
ment. This investment varies widely
as between the several districts and
also with respect to different mining
operations within the same district.
with respect to this investment,
the report shows an average for the
United States Of 1912 a ton, and a
range, with respect to comparatively
important districts, from less than
81 ton to SO or SO and over ton.
'The following conclusions seem
to be justified: In order to have an
intelligent criterion of prices and
especially if any attempt is made to
fix them or establish maximum limits
- it is very desirable that current
and adequate information should be
available as to cost and investment
and particularly as to the typical diff
ferences of cost of production and in
vestment for the different mining
districts.

,KIWANIS HAS
EXCELLENT MEETING

Captain Mcdonald was the presid-
ing officer at the Kiwanis luncheon
at the Rudolf Hotel yesterday, and
conducted a meeting full of life and
valuable suggestions.
Major D. S. Richie was introduced
to speak on the value of the local mil
itary organization, G. Company, which
he did with his usual impressiveness.
He stated among other things that the
organization is of great educational
value in the physical and moral devel-
opment of young men, setting a man
up both physically and morally
abreast of his duty and responsibility
as an American citizen. Major Richie
/ also spoke of the service which G
Company had been to the federal gov
eminent having furnished a total Of
thirty officers and many soldiers who
had served with distinction in the
Spanish and World Wars.
Dr.. l.. C. Lord, President of the
State Teachers College at Charleston,
Illinois, was a guest at the dinner
and spoke briefly of one phase of the
educational situation. He spoke of
the distinction between good teaching
and poor teaching showing that poor
work was always overpaid, expensive
at any price, and that good teaching
is invaluable.
Secretary Baxter, just back from
the International Kiwanis convention
at Toronto told something of his trip
and the convention and promised to
give a more detailed account of his
experience at later meeting.
Among the guests present were
President C. E. Allen, of the State
Teachers College, Prof. Hannes Ols-
sen, instructor of piano and Mr.. Tee
ter, banker of Chicago, and Mr.. J. J.

LA TOILETTE AGAIN
ATTACKS TARIFF

Washington, July 10-Renewing his
attack on the tariff bill, Senator R. M.
Lafollette, (rep., Wis.,, told the SEN
ate late today that this was not the
time to make a general revision of
the tariff, that conditions were chang
ing so rapidly that rates approved
now would be out of date before the
bill could be placed on the statute
books.
Senator LaFollette inveighed
against the system of tariff making
which he said had obtained for a
quarter of a century, syst tenn by
which, he continued, "the tariff grab
bers" come before the senate finance
committee to give exparte statements
as to conditions in their industries,
and to state what rates they desired.
When the pending bill was written,
he added business was depressed and
consequently the manufacturers asked
for the highest possible rates in the
hope that high protection wou,N re-
move the depression.
The speaker argued that the tariff
commission should be relied upon to
gather facts scientifically for congress
Senator W. E. Edge (rep., N. j.,
suggested scientific tariff, with a
law giving the commission broader
authority, but Senator LaFollette de-
clared the commission had all the au-
thority necessary now, that the trou-
BILE was that world economic condit-
ions were so disturbed that it was not
possible to gather definite data on
which to construct a tariff.
