1 4ut d use that much extra, but they do not need it. There is no use burdening the industry with some thing it will never be able to throw eff, he said.
 Because anthracite is not free to function as an industry, many things are determined from q point of view of the carriers of coal. The economic understanding between the railroads and the mines and among the com panies creates a situation which calls for public intervention, he said. Price War in Bituminous Field
 In speaking of the btuminous in- dustry, Dr. Devine stated that this industry is not stabilized. There exists a cut throat competition which makes profits impossible for many of the operators most of the time. The slightest increase in prices will open mines that have not been run for years, will cause new mines to be started.
 The bituminous industry is much larger than the anthracite. He stat ed that 300 miles of caps filled with coal represents the average daily out put. The industry. however, varies with the seasons. with prosperity and with competition of other fuels. If the industry were stabilized only to the extent that anthracite is. the 65o,- 600 miners would be able to produce 950,0O0, ,oOO tons of coal.
 The speaker stated that he had heard that the increase in wages for day labor in Illinois was done delib- crateIy to kill competition from the western states. Since the Illinois mines do not employ much day labor, this increase did not add much 10 their costs, but the western mines do employ a great deal of day labor and they were affected,
 Anthracite is loo per cent union- izcd. That is, all workers arc mem bors Of one, union and work under union contracts. Bituminous is about two-thirdS unionized. while about one third of the men do not work under union contracts.
 Many people, stated the speaker, believe that the country was saved rom the worst effects of the recent suspension because oi the ldCt hndt some of the miners were not in the union and could in that way go on with the production of coal. These people believe that such condition of affairs is absolutely essential 10 the safety of ihe country.
 Protection for Nonunion Men.
 The speaker stated that he person. ally does not agree with. this idea. He sad that there is no doubt that the operators of nonunion mines pre- vented the prices from soaring, but when these people sec how the wages of non union miners are cut they will hesitate to hand over the burden 10 these men of keeping thing going. It is too high a price 10 pay, stated pr. Devine A means must be found of

KNIGHTS OF OLD WERE
 MEN OF SMALL STATURE
Average High School Boy of Today  Could Wear Armor Worn
 Centuries Ago

Cleveland. Jan. 22.-Suits of armor worn by knights of old would fit tightly on the average high school lad of today. Few men now are small enough to squeeze into the coats of mail at the museum of are here.
 Men of the middle ages must have averaged about. 1S0 pounds in weight, believes William NJ. Milliken. curator of decorative arts. who also finds that rounded paunches did not thrive in the age of steel corslets-at least among the fighting men.
 Workmen have just assembled the latest acquisition for the museums armor room. a rare suit of mail for man and horse. Ii was worn by a gallant of the 18th century. Dents in the plates show the armor suffered lusty blows, Yet the weRrer had q waist line of only 80 inches, a calf 1S inches in circumference and would wear a No. 6 shoe in modern foot wear.
 Virtually ali medieval armor >is correspondingly small" says MT. Milliken. Tn European galleries there is hardly suit of mail that would fit the average sized man of today

There was time, according to thS speaker, when anthracite was as un- stable as bituminous is at the present time. Today. the t50,O00 miners em- ploycd in the anthracite mines are steadily employed. The mines are operating as continuously as any ether industry.
 Anthracite is stabilized as far as the high level of prices is concerned. The speaker stated that coal is the only commodity in which there has been no recession in price. However, the increase is justified because of the in crcase in cost. he declared. Total la bor costs have about doubled. he said. as have the overhead expenses and supplies.
 He said that the operators are able 10 take about the same percentage Of the larger prices that they are able to charge.
 The last ten years have been profit able for those who have diferential advantages. he stated. By this is meant those whose mines are near the surface. whose coal measures are straight and whose coal measures are not crushed. These advantages are seen in the companies which own and operate their own mine.
 Opposed To Price Fixing
 The commission did not believe in government ownership or price fixing, said Dr. DcNine. The commission did not stop to investigate this idea. It ;,, ;,l, breaches d monopoly as does the an- thracitc. there is occasion for asser- ton of public interests.
 A federal di0'crential tax on afr thracite. which shall not be levied on coal from which no differential profit is obtained. was one of the recom- mendations made by the commission. according to Dr. Devinc. This applied the principle of the surtaN on the in- horitance tax. which increases with the amount,
 He stated that he had been asked whether or not he thought Governor Pinchot had been influenced political ly in making his award, which settled the recent strike. The governor was expected to settle the strike in order to get the miners back and he knew that he would have to get something that both sides would accept. Hence. the increase in the flat percentages of wages. He not only performed a public service when he made the award, but he increased the revenue Of the state of Pennsylvania, stated Dr. Devine.
 What is needed in the industry, stated the speaker, is thorough job analysis, some of the miners are re cCiving from sS000 to s5,000 a year not because they are Nceptionally good miners but because of the grade Of coal they are mining. Other min- CTS recieve from sl.100 to s1,500. These are the mon who should have the 10 per cent increase. The others

DR. DEVINE TALKS
 ON COAL SITUATION
Believes Industry Must Bring
 About Its Own Salvation

Dr. Edward r, Dcyine, member of the United States coal commission ap- pointed by President Harding. former professor of sociology at Columbia university, and editor Of ''Thc Sur yey." spoke to members of the Com monwealth club at the '. NJ. C. A. last evening. His subject was, Goal; Owners. Miners and Tsers."
 Dr. Deyine's talk mostly concerned the findings Of the coal commission and the recommendation made by it.. He stated that the commission WAS formed in 1922 and the mem bers were appointed by the president This in- quiry into the facts of the coal situ- ation was the most complete and ex- haustive ever made into an industry he said.
 The greater part ot the remedies stated Dr. Devinc, and most or the recommendations were directed at the industry itself. The operators will voluntarily have 10 uSc their judgment as to how far to go with each. There were no solutions found that anyone could run away with he said The Gli5 AaS' VI Llif ttliiiliifHA Abilo l' pol ' was that of economies and engineer ing.
 Fact Finding Commission
 He said that the commission was instructed to find out all it could about the coal industry. There was one good thing, it did not have to set tie any strikes when ii began to func- tion. It did not have to fix the price of coal or tell where coal should be sent. II was not formed for any of these purposes. It was exclusively a fact finding body, However, it was not authorized to carry on any cdu- eational publicity. Ii was instructed 10 report to the president and to con- sress, they to do as they chose with the report.
 Dr. Devine stated that the commis- sion was dealing with two industries and not with one. There was the anthracite industry, limited in it's geographical location and made al- most 8 national monopoly on account Of this fact. Most Of the anthracite industry is confined to a small area or Pennsylvania, he said, and is linn tied in ownership. Three-fourths of the industry is owned by eight large companies. The other industry is the hituminous coal industry.
