NOW DO TT.

President Hardngs telegram tc twenty-eight governors of states is the sort of message that should have been sent days ago if not before, Ii Is worth reading as giving summary of the situation, and as public prom ise of wh>t will be done. If one may interpret the Presidents inviting the operators to operate their mines into a command, and the Presidents s trust you will find it consistent" to second this invitation, addressed to the governors, into an order to them to do so, the telegram is all that might be desired.
 Now 1t Is for the operators to mine the coal.
 It is for the governors of states to give them the protection of state troops,
 It is for the Federal government to back up the states with tangible strength
 For the facts are told in this tele- gram and the advice given puts the President on record. Any failure to live up to the promise of the mes sage would be unjustifable.
 This invitation, (the invitation" which the governors are to give to operators to resume work) Should be accompanied by such assurance Of maintained order and the protection of lawful endeavor as will give assur- ance to everybody concerned" says the wire. T want to convey to you in this message the assurance of the prompt and full support of the Fed eral Government whenever and vher- ever you find your own agencies of law and order inadequate to meet the given, here reiterated because of the advisability of giving every bit of pub licity possible to this promise in or der that its effect may be arreach- ing, ITO the task of lawful protection and the maintenance of order the Federal Government pledges to you every assistance at it's command"
 If this pledge and all that it i'm plies produces the assistance prom ised the coal will be mined. The pro- lection promised by this pledge is all that is needed It is late in coming; but it has come. If this pledge is full filled the people will rule; the ques- tion asked by the people, Who will ruel this country" will be answered, as it should be answered-"The peo- ple's government will rule"
 Gompers says enough coal will not be mined until the miners return to work that the operators themselves cannot dig coal and they won't be able to get men to dig it.
 Gompers does not represent the sit uation as 1t is. Thousands of union miners are working in 'non- union fields. All the union mines are not needed; half of them are not needed All the union men are not needed There are too many of them. If state and Federal protection is given men there will be plenty of men to do the work.
 The promise of protection has been given at last If the protection fol- lows the promise the coal will be mined.

In his speech discussing his bill, Senator Ladd
pointed out that the United States came practi-

the effort to make it appear that the is the
cause of all our economic illness. Our industrial
and agricultural centers were not laid waste in
Belgium, France, Poland, southeastern Europe.
Our war debt is only fraction of that of Great
Britain, Germany or France. In men we lost but

the only large, civilized nation today that
sustain itself unaided. We have the machinery
and other material equipment, as well as the
brains and energy to develop our unlimited re-
sources. Moreover, we have the labor-the willing
hands and heads.
But-what is the condition existing? Economi-
caly, as nation, we stand stagnant, paralyzed,
helpless. Like an imbecile unable to take care of
himself, sit amidst resources, tools at hand

made by him of the fact that non-farmers could
join the Farm Bureau federation. Of course, that
is of the notorious facts about it, that deprves

alleged leaders who are not farmers. In Georgia,

It was the self-claimed and proven favor of the
government, together with the power to command
the governments tax-paid employees in colleges and
in nearly every county, that gave the American

the investigation into farmer organizations brought
out this fact. Chairman of the committee, Louis

Excuses were made by Mr.. Smith as to why the

brows, they can not buy the fuel, the clothes and
other supplies they need. ~
Why? What is the reason? What is lacking?
Men like Ford, Edison, Ladd and thousands of
others have given the problem thought. We have
everything needed except one thing, they say. We
lack the electric spark to ignite the charge already
mixed and compressed in the firing chamber: We
are like gasoline engine with everything complete
but the ignition system. We lack adequate
money and credit system. Instead, we have a

not stimulate business, trade production, but
that hangs like milestone on our necks.
PROVISIONS OF LADD BILL

The question is gigantic one. In this article we
have space only to summarize the Ladd bill, the
concrete definite, specific plan proposed as rene
dy. Whether right or wrong, this bill deserves
attention and study. It provides as follows:

genius. There are not more Than hall dozen Dig
big business men in America, if that many, who
have anything more than desire to pile up riches,
and to keep unchanged the present oppressive sys-
tenn which enables them to do SO. Ford and Edison
are two of that half dozen who believe that things
are not as they should be in our country.
Both these recently gave interviews to the
newspapers denouncing the control of money and
credit by small group of financial overlords who
use their power to oppress farmers, workers and
business in general, and to levy burdensome and

unnecessary toll on production and in
dustry.. They declared against the
s'gold standard" as the sole basis for
money, which has permitted an easy
control by small group of our lives
and happiness. They declared against
the government delegating to private
banks functions which by right and
reason, it should perform itself for the
people.
When men of this type realize
something is wrong-when they are
outspoken about it in spite of press
subservient to the money power which
is ready to denounce them as "nuts"
and "cranks"-when this is the case it
is an indication that something is
stirring. Something is stirring.
