How ever, Schaefer let it be known that it is likely that he and Hoppe will most likely appear in another big match, giving the former champion an opportunity to regain his lau- rels.
 Complimented upon his success ip winning the championship and his rapid climb up the ladder of fame Che is only 1s years old) young Schaefer declared he owed his sue cess to the teachings of his father, who lost the title to Hoppe. Father was a great player" he said and my chief aim is to make such a creditable record in billiards as he did. I give him full credit for my success. I tried to follow his teach ings closely when a boy and to that I do not hesitate to say I owe my success. Many of the pointers he gave me helped me to land the cham pionship.'

Indiona's Cool

TND1ANAS coal industry Is being crippled because of
4 five existing conditions that have been laid plain
during the last two years.
In first place. Indiana has too many coal mines
There are approximately 100 small mines and 225 ma
tor mines -being worked. Second there too many
miners At the present time there 10000 union
miners and approximately 1500 nOnunion miners.
Third. there is outside market for Indiana COAL
fourth there is demand in this State for Indiana
coal Coal have the notion that Indiana coal
is of poor grade and they buying coal shipped in
from West Virginia and Pennsylvania
Fifth, mining companies going too far down
under the surface to dig coal survey Of the coal
mines Of the State made this by GARY Little
john State mine inspector showed that coal is being
mined depths ranging from 900 feet to 1900 feet
The fact is there is plenty Of coal but few hundred
and If this mined exclusively coal prices
would drop It does not much to produce this
coal closer the surface It does that far under
Until these things eliminated, coal prices will
remain high, there viii always be mines closing min
out Of work and the supply will be greatly increased

PIrrn,s IN the Subsidy

n RESIDENT Harding told Congress in the ship sub
L s;dv message that it costing the taxpayers of
the United States fifty million dollars to operate its
feet of ships and that there would be paid out more
than thirty million dollars to private ship operators ii
his ship subsidy hill we're made a law.
The President did say what else the ship oper-
ators would get besides the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES sub
sidy.
The President did not say what ship owners would
get the subsidy and what ship owners would not.
The President did not say that ship would earn
lust as much subsidy whether It carried pound OF
cargo or whether it loaded full The President did
not say that only owners Of ships running regular
lines would receive subsidy.
The President did not say that the ships that run
on regular lines are those devoted not to commerce but
to the hauling Of passengers and mall ships devoted to
the hauling of goods owned by the operator OF the ship
such as the Standard Oil COmpanys tank line steam
ers the United Fruit Companys fruit ships, etc.
The President did not tell Congress that besides the
thirty million dollars going out Of the treasury golden
dood would stopped from flowing into the treasury
BY reason of the fact that these ship owners who enjoy
subsidies-but no other American ship owner-could de-
duct from their income their profits the opera
ton Of the ships and in case they the owners-as
in the case Of the Standard OIL Companyof the cargoes
Of the ships that deduction would be the cent OF
the estimated freight that they paid themselves for
hauling their oil
The President did not say that Mr.. Lasker has ex'
pressed the faith that these income and tax exemptions
to the favored few American ship owners would prob
ably not exceed mere ten million dollars year.
The President did not say that if a man bought a
ship at junk price the shipping board and sold it
at profit to be settled under foreign flag that he would
not have to pay income taxes that profit only he
would buy or build another ship.
The President did not say that the tramp ship"
which is what Great Britain and every other country
means by the expression merchant marine" wifi not
get one penny of subsidy under the proposed bill and
their owners will get any rebates, drawbacks, ex
emptions OF other handouts from, through or by the
treasury.
The President did not say that it proposed to
lend one hundred and twenty-five million dollars to the
preferred class OF American ship at per cent
year. while business men, farmers, manufacturers and
ordinary folk in general pay from to 10 per cent
