URGE FIXING COAL PRICE
State Fuel Commissioner Informs Hoover He Sees No Possibility of Regulating Rates.

Hartford, Sept. Urging that spe- cific authority be given the president to fix a price upon coal at the mines. Thomas w. Russell, state fuel admin
 strator, wrote Secretary of Commerce Hoover today, and said that he could see no possibility of being able to regulate the retail price of coal within Connecticut unless base prices were fixed at the mines. Even if Governor Lake should decide to call the legis- lature in order to give him power to fix retail price, Mir Russell satd that it would be hardly possible to exert any reasonable control on retail prices with operators left free to juggle with prices at the mines
 The state fuel administrator has also written to the Connecticut repre- sentatives and senators in Washington enclosing a copy of his letter to MT. Hoover and urging them to support the desired legislation.

Washington, Sept. 1. (By Associat ed Press) )--Leaders of the strikjne shopmen will not abate their attem pts to make their strike effective what. ever action is taken by the court ir Chicago as result of injunction pro. ceedings instituted by Attorney Gen Daugherty, it was said here today b, w. H. Johnston, president of the in. ternational association of machinists one of the largest striking groups. Federal Blunder. The filing of this suit is just an- other blunder to be added to the large list which the administration has al- ready made in dealing with the rail- road situation" MT. Johnston said. q am surprised MT. Daugherty isn't at- tempting to restrain the railroads in- stead of the men. The administra- tion has done everything it could to help the railroad management" Predicts R. R. Collapse. MT. Johnston asserted that it would take more than mere injunction suit or an injunction to prevent the complete collapse of some of these railroads in the next 30 days" and added:
 We shall continue with the strike whatever happens. We are not afraid of anything the courts can do. Men still have some constitutional rights in America and we shall stand on them"
 Action A Surprise.
 Word of the court action begun in Chicago had a bombshell effect among labor leaders generally, and there were many expressions of surprise among government officials them selves. The secret of the contemplat- attorney general had slipped out of Washington with few of his close as sociates knowing of his intentions.
 Gompers Takes Action.
 President Gompers of the Ameri- can Federation of Labor asked for all the details about the Chicago pro- ceedings before he was willing to comment, but he indicated that the Federation would set before the pub lie, before the day was over, its opinion of the use of the injunction III COHllCClIOll WILL a "StllhC CL lilc magnitude of that now in progress.
 Officials of labor organizations in the meantime pointed out that there had been "a bushel of injunctions" granted to railroads against local strike organiza tions which they as serted had in no way interfered with the effectiveness of the strike. The shopmen, according to the labor view, are not engaged in unlawful action and cannot be forced by injunctions to go back to work.
 Cummins Approves.
 Members of the senate and house were slow to comment, but Chairman Cummins of the senate interstate commerce committee, said he was one of those who had been consulted about the move. He said that in the present circumstances, 'any move that will help keep the railroads in opera tion has my approval"

Henry Ford is a constant source. of interest and
la standing inspiration to comment. The other day
he told an interviewer that seventeen years ago he
and Mrs. Ford were. trying to make the raise of d
chicken-for Christmas and could find no one to trust
them. Last year MIR. Ford paid. the United States
government SIG, 000, 900 intakes. 5.
In the effort to determine the amount of money
or its equivalent which, should be considered sufi-
cient for any one person to possess, the statement
has often been made that no person can honestly
earn as much as a million dollars. Henry Ford has
acquired some hundreds Of millions, and has done
it within only a small part Of the, active period OF a
mans life. Has he got his wealth honestly, or has
he stolen it?
The man who makes two blades of grass grow
where but one grew before. is a builder, a creator
OF real wealth. Sois the man who. builds a railway
and developes a productive empire from a wider,
ness. So is the man who invents a telephone OF
pcrfects An electric light, or, finds out a better way
to extract metal from ore, or who does anything
which increases the productiveness and the happi-
ness OF man. Not alone is the man who devises
new ways in the field of mechanics the benefactor
of his race. Equally useful is the man who can as
se1nble elements of human force which are being
them by effective organization and make of them
real producers OF the materials, or the thoughts
which men and women need. ~.
The men who have the genius for such organi.
cation Of forces must be permitted to make large
accumulations i'll order that they may carry on the
work which is to benefit humanity In a personal
way they are entitled ITO all the. advantages that
civilization can give them. But the expenditure OF
one of these geniuses OF his own, personal pleasure
lis negligible. 1t is important, though. that he be
enabled to segregate some Of. the wealth which he
produces into such form that he, can continue to
utilize it Tor the common good in the field of en-
deavor wherein he excels. ~
