FINANCE BOARD ACTS
 WISELY

The board of finance and taxa ton, which last night voted to with draw money from the emergency fund to meet Inc emergency need of several more patrolmen iii the city, undoubtedly acted along the lines of preponderating public sentiment. The boards action. so certain to meet with the approval of citizens generally, now will go to the Com mon Council for approval.
 The Common Council should not permit political consideration to warp Its views upon such an i'm portant public question. It is re- ported there will be opposition by Alderman w. H. Judd but his coll leagues should not permit such op- position to affect their judgment,
 There may be some difference of opinion as 10 the extent Of tho pres ent emergency, but there can scarce ly be any logical differences as to the need for some more patrolmen. The police chief and the police com mission, who are in position 10 know conditions, have repeatedly emphasized the nck of sufficient men. The finance board doing its duty as guardians of the public strong box, took d conservative at titude but finally has come to see the justice of the demands. It now remains for the Common Council to see the light irrespective of political consultations.

A FOOL TO THE VERY END.

By Wallace Nj, Bayliss. It seems every little while It has got to be the style To predict the world is coming to an
 end;
 That the heavens will unroll Like a monumental scroll And 10 earth lot of angels will
 descend.
 In some folks this throws a scare, As for ma, l do not care If the world has got to end some
 hally day.
 In the manner prophets tell II would suit me mighty well To be here to see the wonderful dis
 play,
 It would be a lot of fun Just to watch the people run, And some rascals that l know would
 likely pray;
 l suppose, if truth were told, When the heavens were unrolled I, myself. would not be terribly blase. But think I'd grab my Tyre, And as I went higher, higher, of my nature wasn't quickly
 changed in grain), Just to add a little cheer I would play "rhe gangs all here"' "Wottle I do?" or else that No
 Bananas" strain.

 It Is well known that diamonds are made up largely of carbon During a severe electrical storm in Calcutta, in '96, bolt struck the electric light pole outside my house. AS l looked from my window l saw that the ground, where the pole had been, was covered with twinkling objects. Running out, l gathered them np. They were diamonds of the first water, flawloss and perfect, made by one of those freaks of Nature which science tries vainly 10 initiate.

It is considered the height of ill-brced- ing to ask any Russian where he got anything and was too glad to have these great works of art 10 run the risk of offending the donor.

anthracite produced every year Is mined by eight large companies, (which are or recently have been, " according 10 the words of the re-. port, "owned or closely affiliated with tho railroads tapping the coal hclIs," Tho remaining 30 per cent of the output ia mined by 100 in. dependent companies. The railroad coal companies, 1t is stated in the report, follow policy of announcing prices periodically usually about April each year.
 The public only takes the trouble 10 see the coal industry through contact with the local dealer. The | latter IS but the final cog in the ma chine and only handles coal on a profit basis charging the public ac- cording 10 what he Is forced to pay the wholesalers jobbers, or mine owners. The dealer, it is clear, is just as much at the mercy Of the situation at the mines as the public It is well within the memory of ci,i- zens that dealers could not get enough coal to supply the demand at any price during 1922.
 But at the extreme end of the scales arc the consumers, and these have a very important voice in the industry so far as keeping coal nov ing is concerned Much of what happens in the fall and winter de- pends upon the action of consumers during the summer.

THE EAST MENACED BY WESTERN POLITICS

Despite Pre- s q ent Coolidge's strong opposition to the principles entailed in the late and unlamented McNary- -Haugen farm bill, western farm republicans threaten to bring those principles to the foreground again and insist that the adminis- tration act fayorably upon them. and if the administration demurs the western reprisal will be an at tack upon the tariff law,
 The farm bloc, according to all available information, is to work for some form of price e-tiXing of farm products by the government and the establishment of a govern mental agency to purchase the ex- portable surplus of the agricultural industry
 "Wallace's Farmer" published at Des Moines, la, and regarded as one of the half dozen farm publica- tions of influence. has sounded the tocsin call Of the cmbattIed soiI-till- CTS who yallantly upheld the Re publican administration during the last election and will want some consideration" when Representa- tive Dickinson of Iowa introduces the new bill to embody the late Me Nary-Ilaugen principles. The bill will be introduced in December and will get 10 the discussion stage next February. Here is what the farm publication says about the coming battle:

publication says about the coming battle:
 "It is probable that the fight will be inc most memorable in
 the history of American agri-
 cultural legislation, If We
 tail, the next thing to do is to
 reopen the tariff issue at once,
 making q definite drive for the
 admission free of duty of all
 products produced by western
 Europe. Such action will doubt
 less lower the standard of living
 of wage earncrs on the Atlantic
 soaboard and decrease the
 profits of our manufacturers,
 We trust that our Eastern
 Republican friends will remcm-
 her the glass house in which
 they live when they come to
 decide which way they arc Eo-
 ing 10 votn on the Dickinson
 bill next winter"
 The situation will bc more com. pIicated than appears on the sur face, As the farm bloc managers have pointed out, times have changod' at least, in one or two particulars. The chiei particular is that :he east may h. divided against itself. IL is believed that American bankers who have been loaning money 10 Europe will favor q lower tariff so that Europe may sell the goods in this countr! in order to get the money 10 pay the bankers. A cleavage between the international banking east anC the manufacturing east natural! wlll help the farm bloc.
 "Gn this division," says "WaI-
 mCc's Farmer" lies real op-
 portunity for the farmers. His
 support will be needed badly by
 both factions and they can be
 forced 10 bid high for it, If he
 throws in with the high tariff
 crowd he should demand the
 McNary- -Haugen bill as his
 right. If he throws in with the
 international bankers and the
 free trade group he should de
 mand a stable price lcvch set
 at a point 70 per cent above
 pre-war as his right"
 The western farm bloc evidentl! IS wiling 10 sec the cast have tho tariff if it can have it's equivalent il federal price fixing; and if the lat ter is denied, then it will fight thu tariff. The outlook is not particu larly comforting and goes to nullif, much of the political content tha has been promulgated by the part! press. Il would appear further tha the tariff is still regarded as DO hiical football.
