What did you gain by your loss OF control?
You are worn and neutrality-suspicious. disgusted

AVA Say: Things look bright for you and l.
And she must use no slang whatever.
Her mental average must be nigh.
She must not have an inclination
To make remarks that are unkjnd;
She must possess an education
And be complaisant and refined
sSCHE must not lightly keep me waiting
~ Without good cause, nor be a flirt;
She must not always be debating,
Nor have opinions to assert.
Her tastes must not be too expensive;
She must not have a tendency
To make remarks that are offensive,
Or get befogged on us and we.
'"'HE girl marry must be willing
= Sometimes to listen and to learn;
She must not think that she's fulfilling
Her part in spending all l earn.
She must possess disposition
That's free from every jealous taint,
And let me follow my ambition
Without objection or restraint"
I'VE heard the girl he married saying:
i at looks like things was all dead wrong.
She talks too much, and keeps him praying
That her delays may not be long.
She's jealous, envous, flirtatious,
And scorns the goal he hopes to reach
She keeps him guessing, but. by gracious,

Lloyd George still sways
European politics and poll
cies.
1t is striking that France con-
tinues to allow Great Britain to
manoeuvre herself out Of the war
hatred of the German and the
Russian people and leave poor
France, with a diminishing birth
rate and tax burden that is all
but breaking her, to sustain the
concentrated hatred of the two
most virile people on the CONT
nent of Europe.
France can no more hold the
German or the Russian people
down than a few Lilliputians
could hold down a giant.
Now that the Russian people
have been set free and the
energies of a naturally virile race
have been released, we shall, in
a few years, see Russia increasing
as our West increased, for her
untitled fields are as fertile as
ours and her forest resources are
as untouched as ours were.
Moreover, we can depend upon
it that the economic intelligence
of the Russian leaders will not
permit Russia to waste her re-
sources as we have wasted ours.
In Russia the motto-"This will
last as long as we do; after us
the deluge"-will not have the
place that it had in America. We
have been destroying our Won
derful forests and throwing
away our water rights and our
franchises and giving the rail-
roads millions of acres of land
and permitting them to water
their stock by the hundreds of
millions with reckless, needless
improvidence.
The resuscitation of the power
of the white race in Europe will
come from Russia, and we pre-,
dict that within the memory of
children now alive the white race
will be thankful to the Russian
people for a defense of our West
ern civilization as important as
that made by Charles the Ham
mer at Tours in 732 A. D.
The British manufacturers want
Russian trade. They are getting
it. They want more of it. Lloyd
George is helping them by public
ly proposing to recognize the
Soviet government, which has
proved it's stability. Poor France
plays into his hands by publicly
refusing to recognize the Russian
government.

There is a good deal in the

this country up with Japan, for
bidding us to fortify our posses
sions in the East, where we need
protection, and junking ships for
which the people had spent four
hundred millions. The Republic

that means. 1t will not mean,
however, that the Democracy of

Coal
Situation

SAAAA~o 40 wiz Pe$OoS 40 ~ AiU
tional calamity. And it is a ma
tional disgrace.
BY "the organization of the
coal industry" we mean the
method of producing and dis
tributing coal. The "organiza-
ton" of the American coal in
dustry is black blot upon Ameri-
can industrial leadership.
Forget for a moment the
charges and counter charges
hurled about by mine owners and
miners. Let's get to the bottom
of the situation.
Look at the simple problem. We
have a great seasonal variation
in the consumption of coal. Its
maximum consumption is in the
winter months, when it is needed
for heating purposes. Also winter
darkness requires more coal for
lighting plants. And in the
winter locomotives must burn
more coal to keep up steam in
their boilers.
Seasonal variation in consump-
ton we cannot avoid. But we
should avoid seasonal variation
in production. It should be posi-
BILE to keep miners busy all the
year around producing coal even
though its use occurs mostly in
the winter.
This isn't done. Last April we
were producing 100000 tons of
soft coal per day. Last October
we were producing 100000 tons
per day. That is, we have season
al production, too.
Now, miners are skilled work
ers. They can't be imported to a
mine for the busy months. They
live in the mining town all year
round. There must be enough
miners living there to care for the
speak" production in fall. They
can get work on the average only
200 of the 300 working days of
the year. But during those 200
days they must be paid enough
to support their families during
the year. That means a high
daily wage-the days they work.
Miner says this wage is too
little. Mine owners say it is too
much. In any case, public pays
it in the end as an element of the
exorbitaht price of coal.
Why not a regular daily pro-
duction all year, every miner en-
ployed every day7 Build storage
facilities to hold the surplus pro-
duction of spring and then draw
this coal for the surplus consump-
tion of fall. All elements of the
problem are known: (1) the !
annual consumption by months,
(2) the daily rate of production
that would meet this demand for
coal, (3) the present storage ca
pacity of the country, (4) the ad-
ditional storage capacity neces-
sary to equalize the situation.
Grain, wool, cotton are season
ally produced. Consumption is
regular throughout the year. Stor-
age in grain elevators and ware
houses makes this possible. STOR-
AGE.
In this case STORAG E
equalizes seasonal production with
constant consumption.
1t is an insult to intelligence to
say that storage cannot likewise
equalize constant production with
seasonal consumption-and that
is all that is required in this
coal case.
LET'S HEAR WHY WE CAN
NOT HAVE SEASONAL STOR-
AGE OF COAL.
