CONCERNING THE COAL
SITUATION

Fairmont, Feb. 22.-"When is the
coal business going to pick up?"
That is the question which is very
much in the mind of almost everyone
in West Virginia. A. Lisle White,
President of the Northern w. Va Coal
Operators Association, is in posit-
ion to nkow the fact in the coal situa-
ton and his view in given below.
"The coal business is going to inn
prove when it has become adjusted to
after-teh war conditions" says Mr..
White eve might as well all Of us
understand that REIMBURSEMENT is
coming and get in line with 1t. lit is
National condition that we must
take into account.
However the situation in each coal
mining district is individual. In Nor
thern West Virginia we have our own
peculiar problems. These are not the
problems of the mine operator alone,
but concern the welfare Of every per-
son in the northern part Of the state
operators, miners, merchants, indeed
everyone in any line of work of bus
mess in the district. We are all go
ing to be prosperous or unprosperous
together. Unless we are able to keep
our mines running, everyone in the
district suffers loss.
with railroads freight rates i'm
posing a handicap on our section in
competition with other districts which
mine similar grade of coal, we are
now in position where our competi-
tors are undersell us in the open mar
ket. Our mines are now running far
below their normal capacity and it is
safe to say that 90 per cent Of the
coal coming out Of Northern West
Virginia now is on contracts which
expire March 81.
During the period of greatest de-
mand for coal and high prices, the
operators in this district pursued
wise policy Of keeping faith with
those who had made contracts for
coal The temptation to profiteer
was put aside and contracts we're full
filled. That friendly spirit is large
ly due the renewly contracts for the
year which is soon to end.
"But we cannot expect our custo-
mers to renew these contracts for an
other year on a basis of friendship
alone. And, in addition to contracts
which will not Of themselves keep our
mines running on profitable basis,
we must be able to complete the open
market with either districts. That
means that the Northern West Vir-
ginia district must be able to go out
after orders during the year beginn-
ing April 1 in strictly competitive
way that our costs must be kept
down to afigure that will allow us to
meet the prices of operators in other
regions"

The Pneumonia Month

March is a typical pneumonia
month and usually gives high rate
of mortality for the disease. After
a long and hard winter, the system
loses much if it's resistance and peo-
pie grow careless. When every cold,
no matter how slight, is given prompt
and intelligent attention, there is
much less danger of pneumonia. 1t
should be bore in mind that pneumon-
ia is germ disease aud breeds in
the throat. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is an expectorant and cleans
out the germ ladened mucus and not
only cures cold but prevents its re-
sulting in pneumonia. 1t is pleasant
to take. Children take it willingly.

Bonus to Come Before House Under Rule Motion at
 Thursday Session
SHUT OUT AMENDMENTS
Leaders Confident That They Have Votes to Spare Over
 Necessary Two-Thirds

WASHINGTON, Mar. 21.- Speaker Gillett consented today to permit the compromise soldiers bonus bill to be taken up in the house Thursday under a suspension of rules. It is the plan to have the final vote before adjourn ment that day, after four hours Of general debate, divided equally be- tween opponents and proponents.
 A two thirds majority will be neces- sary to pass the bill under this pro- cedure, but those in charge of the legislation predicted that they would have votes to spare. By this method, the majority will succeed not only in shutting out all amendments, but also in preventing the Democrats from or fering a motion to .recommit the bill.
 The parliamentary plan for handling the measure was determined upon at five minute conference today be- tween Gillett and Chairman Campbell of the rules committee. The special rule, will be presented immediately after the house convenes on Thursday, Campbell said, but whether any de bate on it will be permitted has not yet been determined. The chairman might cut off, discussion by moving the previous question after explain ing the rule. "A majority vote only will be required to adopt the rule, which Democratic leaders said would

HOOVER AIRS OPINIONS ON
 MANY TOPICS
Hoover Talks on National and International Subjects at
 Los Angeles Meeting

LCS ANGELES. Mar. 21.-Herbert Hoover, secretary of commerce, dis cussed national economies and inter national affairs in address to local or ganizations during his stay here with the Colorado river commission. He declared business throughout the coun try wos improving and pointed to the power treaty as an instrument for bringing about world peace.
 He declared industrial and business conditions in the United States were decidedly upon the, up grade, having successfully passed the danger point of depression last July.
 Commenting on the possibility of coal strike, Hoover said: The bitu- minous coal situation has fallen into a vicious circle constantly tightening it's grip until the nation now faces the greatest coal crisis in it's history"
 After stating that coal miner works, on an,average, 1S2 days year; that there are approximately 40 per cent more coal mines operated than are needed, and that 40 percent more men are employed than are necessary, the secretary declared that a solution of the situation must be found, first, in stabilizing capital and reducing speculation; second, in stabilizing wage scales; and third, in reducing the price of coal to the consumer He expressed a conviction that satis- factory settlement could be reached through negoations now in progress between the department of commerce, the men in control of the coal indus try, and the organized miners. Speaking of general econimic con- ditions, Hoover said:
 "A few people appreciate the prob lens brought about through the ser ious diversions of economic currents of the world into war channels. and the resultant chaos following the war. The collapse of Russia alone de- prived western Europe of it's former source of food supply, and now Ameri- ! ca is making good that deficiency.
 We have practically been support { ing Europe on credit for the last three years. Until Russia can be restored the commerce of America will be sadly deranged, for, while we had no part in the Old World politics which 1 brought on the war, we cannot escape | the penalty.
 when the war started, we entered upon tbe most extravagant era oi waste and speculation the country has ever known. This era brought the country to it's greatest economic crisis in 1920.
