Coke Workers Going to Daily
 Foil in Airplane; Sedan Cars
 Take Coal Miners to Their Work

Especial to the New York Times)
 Uniontown, Pa, July I4.-That the 1uxuries of peace in the Fayette Com pany coal region far outshadoW war prosperity was indicated today when Edmund Henriques, a coke worker, returned to his home in Gates from New York with a Sopwith airplane which he will use to carry him "to and from his daily toil"
 For several yeays the fivver, which had been domesticated among the mining towns of the Connellsville region, has been passe, and high-pow- cred sedan cars have travelled the highways bearing the miners from their homes to the coal pits and back again when the days toll was ended.
 Henriques startled the "aristocrats of the coke region" when he returned from New York with his Sopwith camel" British built airplane with which he is familiar through five years service in the Royal Air Forces. He made the flight from New York in his new machine in four and half hours, and will use 1t during the summer to attend Sunday baseball games in Chicago and Cleveland.
 His home is several miles from the coke ovens at Gates, where he IS en- ployed, and he has found 1t annoy ing to be forced to arise so early in the morning and go to work. Being high-class employe with good job, and not wishing to lose his place from lateness, he concluded that the safest and fastest method of trans portation, the airplane, would just about make his lot happy one. Act ing on this conclusion, he "got him. calf ona accordinor fo biC way of mi ting it.
 Henriques has been the owner for some time of high-powered motor car but tire troubles and other me chanical accidents exhausted his pa tience His Sopwith will take him anywhere he wants to go in few hours, and he has no fear of being late at the coke plant in the future.
 In 1920 Henriques piloted an air plane from New York to Nome, Alas ka.

FLYING MINERS
 STORY NOT TRUE Uniontown Workers Amused at Fan
 ciful Yarn.
fFrom Washington Daily Newsl

(From Washington Daily News)
 Uniontown, Pa-That story of the Coke Worker Going to Daily Task in Airplane; Sedan Cars Take Miners to Their Work" to quote a headline from the New York Times, and to check upon a dispatch carried on some press wires Saturday, may be a good story; but 1t is not news It is not true.
 The coke oven workers of this town, where the coke worker was re- ported to have been gliding to work in his airplane had good laugh when told that the rest of the country be- lieved they were taking up aviation as means of getting to and from their work.
 Miners and cokers spent part of yesterday watching Edmund Bran Ouixano Henrique doing stunts with his new Sopwith plane, 1t is true. But Henridues is not a "coke worker" He Is an assistant superintendent over a score or so of trick mines in this neighborhood.
 Henrieques told me in his polished Oxford University English how he learned to fly with the British Royal Air Forces, how after the war he at tracted attention in this country by flying from New York to Alaska, and how he bought his present plane to use it in an advertising medium for a new fire extinguisher which a Mason town concern is putting on the mar ket
 Henriques is modest, businesslike chap, and was highly amused by the weird effort to use his activities to spread the idea that the miners were scattering their excessives wages in their air On the contrary, miners in this region, working in the United States Steel Corporation mines, are not very flush now, they having been defeated not long ago iH "a strike which was broken. by the importation of negroes from the South.

Government Control
 of Coal Industry

Washingtin, Oct 6-Supervision of the coal industry by the interstate com merce caommission is. the outstanding recommendation of the coal commits sion's final report.
 The commission declares that the rig i'd monoply of the hard coal industry makes government control necessary and suggests a tax on royalties and differ ential profits to curb the arbitrary pow CTS of the monopolists. The tax would not decrease the price of coal, but would add to the public revenues and thus ben eft the people indirectly.
 In- the bituminous coal industry the commission recommends regulation of transportation service by granting or withholding cars to establish an equilib- rum between demand and supply, sup plemented by government licensing of dealers who buy and sell coal in inter state commerce.
 The commission says the coal ccon- suners have the main remedy for high prices of anthracite in their own hands they may use alleged substitutes for hard coal thus influencing the coal prof iteers to loosen up. .,
 The report expresses regret that the coal industry itself has manifested ei- ther a lack of desire or inability to regulate the industry in the public in terest. The commissions recommenda- tions are made because of the industry's delinquency i'll this respect.
 The coal question now shifts to con gress, whcih under the Constitution has authority to regulate interstate com merce, although of late years the jur- isdiction of congress has been largely nul1ed by the Supreme Court of the United States exercising the utterlp un- constitutional and usurped power to ve- to acts of congress declaring public poll cies when those policies conflict with the policies approved by the irresponsi- ble judiciary

Labor Organization
 Leads to Liberty

Chicago, H., Oct 6-"Every bit of progress that has been made has been made as the result of organization" de clares the International Steam Engineer, the official organ of the International Union of Steam and Operating Engi- neers, in an editorial leader on trade Imionism.
 Progress lags just to the degree that organization lags.
 Whatever advance has been made in shortening hours, raising wages and ele- vating working conditions can be meas ured by the yardstick of organization.
 "The individual worker may shirE his duty he may maintain his stand as all individual; he may go from job to job searshing the ideal cinditions he wants to enjoy, but wherever he goes he will find the same average level.
 liner is no escape for he is work CT, and, as such, IS forced to compete with every worker in his industry A job he must have, and any job that he gets IS owned by some employer"
 All of which means. according to the International Steam Engineer, that the individual worker must seek his identity in that of the mass He must organize, and become an integral part of some organization. He must accept the inevitable conclusion that the day of individual action is over and its sun has set and the day of collective, united, | action is at hand, for the good of one is bound up in the welfare of all. :"

KU KLUX KHAN.

During the year the Ku Klux Klan has continued it's campaign of terrorism on such a scale that it's operations can not be overlooked. This secret organization promotes discrd among our people and strife within the ranks of organized labor, seeks to destroy the cherished Amer ican principles of religious freedom and tolerance and purposely fosters racial prejudices.
 "The Ku Klux Klan is destructive of that freedom and devotion to the principles of liberty which we regard as the first essential in democratic civilization. The Ku Klux Klan seeks also to take into it's own hands the administration of punishment, thus setting itself up as superior to gov ernment in the enforcement of law. We know of nothing that could be more intolerable or more hostile to the purposes of organized government or the trade union movement
 We believe that no trade union ist can consistently participate in the similar organization, and we unhesi- tatingly denounce it's efforts to sup plant organized government, to pro- mote religious intolerance, racial an tagonisms and bigotry.
 THE FAscIsTI MOVEMENT.
 "The effort to organize Fascist groups in the United States IS of inn, mediate concern to us. We denounced this effort as token of hostility toI our democratic institutions and par-I to our American trade unionl Promotion by foreignl power of hostile movement on our soil cannot be lightly regarded by our or by our people in gen-E eral No disclaimers from abroad can alter the character of the Fas- cisti nor change the fact that the off spring in America must partake of the nature and purpose of the parent body in Italy.
 We call upon workers of foreignf birth to refrain from joining the Fascist or any similar movement in our country The inevitable result | of continuance of such efforts as that by the organization of Fascist groups in America can lead only to a more determined resolve to bar the doors more tightly to those who abuse the freedom and institu- lions of our country.

The only consola- tlon labor has Is that while it did not obtain the remedial legislation that it sought 1t prevented the passage of many react1onary measures.
 LAME DUCKS"
 One of the greatest issues before the people of the United States is the menace from legislation enacted by lame ducks Of those voting for the ship subsidy bill in the House seVenty-one were lame ducks mem bers who had been repudiated by their constituents, and with that vote only was the bill passed by the House. Such wave of resentment swept over the country that Senator Norris terms of Congressmen should expire in December after the election and that Congress of the newly elected representatives be called Together in the following January. The bill pass ed the Senate, but was pigeon-holed m the House. It is believed that the next Congress will take suitable ac- ton to. eliminate this incongruous menace to legislation.
 SOLDIERS BONUS.
 "Congress failed to enact legis1a- tlon providing for adjusted compen- sat1on for former service men. The war IS over, but some of those who remained at home to legislate for those who were offering the supreme sacrifice are now refusing adjusted compensation to the men who main tained the political freedom of our re- public
 The council closed it's report with a renewed demand for further restric- ton of immigration, terming the cry Shortage of labor" a myth sent out by interests seeking to flood the na ton with cheap foreign labor.
 It also reviewed the labor legisla- ton situation in each state of the Union.
 In the review Connecticut is sadly lacking, in fact not mentioned, as among the states that enacted 1egisla- ton to benegt the.workers. Alabama, California, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Neva- da, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Penn sylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Washing ton, Wisconsin and Wyoming, all did something for Labor, either in pass ing bills favorable to the worker or killing bills antagonistic to labor. But Connecticut Is lacking.

 LABOR BANKS.
 Banking and credit are as insep- arable as life and air. Credit as now administered too often increases un- earned incomes at the expense of earned incomes and constitutes a bur den upon necessary industry.
 "We have pointed out the ideal of credit administration through a pub lie agency. Through the growing number of labor banks some progress toward the ideal may be made. La Dor banks are much nearer the mass es o fthe people than are the insti- tutions of what is commonly called Wall Street, and they are more re- sponsfve to fundamental needs. As banks. we look upon these labor in- stitutions as helpful, even though they constitute NO remedy.
