- "There is no shortage of coal"
Henry Ford made that statement at
Detroit Saturday night on his return
frem the Ohio coal regions. Ford, in
blaming the fuel brokers, interstate
commerce commission and Secretary
of Commerce Hoover for the situation
that caused him to close down his
plants, said: I'VE bought coal from
the brokers at 50 a ton less than they
paid for it and could have bought 1t
for less If we had cared to jam them.
There is no shortage of coal, nor has
there been. On the contrary, there
has been enough coal above ground to
last the country a year, with economy
Coal brokers. simply engineered q
squeeze in an attempt to plunder the
country AS soon as we closed our
plants public sentiment began to con-
centrate upon the coal situation with
the result that those who control the
interstate commerce commission caus-
ed the ban that had been placed upon
coal shipments to be removed. The
mine owners are not to blame for the
coal situation. The brokers are the
robbers and they are financed by a
group of bankers who participate in
the robbery. If these grafters were cut
off, the price of coal would be reduced
fifty per cent. without reducing
either miners wages or the profits of
the coal companies. Hoover and the
members of the interstate commerce
commission are simply mallets with
which the banking clique that finances
the. coafF brokers hammer the public"
Georges Carpenter, the heavy
weight champion boxer of Europe and
idol slof France" was defeated in
Paris Sunday by Battling Sikh, the
Senegalese fighter, in the sixth round
of what was to have been a twenty
round bout. Carpenter never had a
chance after the third round. He was
barely able to respond to the bell at
the beginning of the sixth. With his
right eye completely closed and his
nose broken, he was unable to put up
n guard. In the sixth the negro
rights to Carpenters head and the
French idol crumpled to the floor. One
of his legs caught between the legs of
the Senegalese while he was falling.
The crowd, the largest that ever wit
messed a boxing contest in France
sensed the end. All was uproar. Many
persons jumped into the ring and
carried the Senegalese on their shOul-
ders to his corner. The referee, Harry
Bernstein, at first ruled that Sikh had
been disqualified for tripping but the
throng received the decision with
great chorus of boots and jeers and
even threatened the referee with bodi-
ly harm. The three judges, VicOr Bry-
er, Jean Poujl, Frenchmen, and Mr.
Bennison, of London, went into consul
tation. An hour later they declared
the negro the winner. Their verdict
was received with terrific cheering
from the spectators, who had remain
ed in the arena for it, many of them
in an ugly mood. Carpenter had been
hooted by large numbers of the crowd
rs he was taken from the ring The
defeat Of Carpenter was entirely un-
expected. Carpenter was the favoritc
when the men entered the ring and the
crowd was dumbfounded when they
saw their idol pommcllcd all over the
ring and subjected to terrific punish
ment at the hands of the big black.
Carpenter tried every trick of his
