Demand of Russians

Chicago Daily News-Copyright 1927
THE HAGUE, July 20. - The
true explanation Of the sudden
breaking up of the conference on
Russian affairs is this:
Sometime between the morning
and afternoon meetings yesterday,
Litvinov, head of the soviet dele
cation, informed the British delegates
that if Moscow announced it's recog-
milton of RUssia's international obli
cations as proposed the soviet gov
eminent, would expect immediate de
jure recognition.
In view Of this condition and agree
ment with the Russians here was i'm
possible, and the blowing up of the

Count Landi, Commanding
Salvage Ship Built Spec
tally for Task, Is Confident
of Success

NDON.-Speculation is rife here
and on the continent as to the pos
sihility of raising the Lusitania.
Whether the salvaging is success
full or not, revelations Of historic i'm
port are expected to follow the at
tempt.
Did the Lusitania carry munitions?
That is the moot question which
the salvaging operations are expect
ed to clear up.
The German press is taking a par
ticularly keen interest in the prof.
ect. Berlin papers, which have re-
Gently been devoting considerable
space to dscussionse of war guilt,
are agitating for the appointment Of
a German official witness Of the sal
vaging attempt.
Count Charles Zaradi Landi, who
will command the specially-equipped
salvage ship, "Semper Paratus," is
confident of success.
1.-THE Lusitania," he told an inter-
viewer, "lies in ESQ feet of water on
clean gravel bottom. No attempt
has ever been made to raise her, be-
cause the limit of diving possibilities
has hitherto been not much more
than 120 feet. The new diving-suit
which I have invented will enable
my men to work at a depth of 500
feet"
"Do you expect to bring the Lusi-
tania home under her own stean?"
the count was asked.

said the count, three days are all
that are necessary to get the engines
of a salvaged vessel in order again.
There is no rust. The deeper the wa

Count Landi docs not appear dis

can firm is already proceeding across
the Atlantic to salvage the Lusi-
tania.

The Coal Strike Situation

We are trying our best to be COM
Portable on each succeeding July
day, and are apparently oblivious Of
the approaching winter, when the
scarcity of coal is going to be as
narrowing as it was a few years
ago; when the owners Of coal mines
kept the trains, composed of coal
cars, strung out on sidetracks, to
raise the coal price to famine height,
and the people were unable to buy
ton Of coal under fifteen dollars
per ton.
Have we so soon forgotten what
we had to suffer, and how helpless
we were, and the money it required
to keep the homes even moderately
warm?
OF all people on earth, Georgia
seems to be the limit for indiffer-
ence in matters Of this kind. Right
now householders should be anxious
to secure their coal supply for the
winter of 1929. And, neverthe-
less, we go along, head up, and car
ing nothing for what is plainly in
sight of us.
Every day the coal strike stu
alton is becoming more and more
complicated and serious.
President Harding has been doing
his best to secure some sort of
proposition or agreement by which
the coal can be lifted from, the earth
and made ready for shipment. Do
our coal-users understand it will be
too late to tide over the seasons de-
mands inside of three months? 1t
now costs $3.50 to raise a ton Of
coal and make it ready to ship. 1t
will cost more than such an amount
to load the coal cars and start them
out on the railroads-north, east,
ers get the coal they will be able to
charge any old price to the people
who buy by the ton or by the bushel.
The strike is carried on by miners
who want wartime prices for ex-
cavating the coal. The owners of
the mines understand the coal can
for it gets to a point where con-
sumers must have it, or freeze for
lack Of it.
| Like the heavily-timbered lands
in the state of Georgia that go on
the wild land tax digest at 10 cents
per acre.. the mine owners know
they have a sure thing of it. Coal
will be safer in the ground than on
railroad tracks, where frenZied
mob will take it over, nilly-willy.
1t is predicted that the govern
ment will be forced to take over the
coal mines and run them. So it was
concluded to run railroads in war
time, and therefore the railroad
workers are now struggling to get
war prices, and every railroad is
being denuded Of it's working force
by a nationwide strike.
government take over the ships, and
turtles to come we will be taxed to
pay the debts that accrued from
Waset and insolent graft with ships.
We must get line on coal pro.
duction different from the railroad
and shipping atrocities. The people
are not yet ready to freeze or to
starve to death in a so-called free
country, where there is plenty of
coal, if they have to conscript the
coal mines and put a standing army
around them to reach the coal that
the people must have and are will.

in 1920 in only Pierce and Tiff coun-
ties. In Pierce county the farmers
paid 10 per cent of the net receipts
from the tobacco crop after the ware
house charges were deducted. In
Tiff county fiat rate of So per acre
was paid.
Machinery cost, as has been ex-
planned previously, was calculated on
the basis of Is cents per day for
each productive mule day. 1t, there
fore, varies with the hours of mule
labor. Very little machinery is nee
essary for the production Of tobacco,
and this charge is of minor impor-
lance.
The other costs, consisting Of
spray material, thread for strlnging
the leaves on sticks, plants and
seed, while usually Of small impor-
lance, sometimes totaled consider
able amount. This was especially
true in cases where the plant beds
failed to produce sufficient plants
and these had to be purchased.
The total cost per acre, emitting
the charge for demonstrators, aver
aged $121. 01 in Pierce country, $140.92
in Coffee county, $12475 in Berrien
county, S128.74 in Wilcox county
and $121.15 in Tiff, Turner, Ben Hill
and Irwin counties. The cost Of
demonstrators increased the total
cost in Pierce county to $142.62 and
in Tiff, Turner, Ben Hill and Irwin
counties to $125.09. The average
cost per acre for the 1927 acres
represented in the survey was
$131.25, with demonstration charge
included and $126.10 without the
demonstration.
Man labor constitutes 81 per cent
Of the total cost. Mule labor is 1857
per cent and fertilizer 1888 per cent.
These. three items combined make
up 1925 per cent Of the total cost
Of producing tobacco. Rent is the
next largest item, being $40 per
