Krassin, the Soviet Ambassador to
Paris, satisfied that the strike was
certain to occur, summoned Russian
agents to France, who offered deliv-
cries Of coal at low prices. When this
became known to the British mine
leaders they demonstrated to zinovieff,
accusing the Soviet leaders of trea-
son to the cause they pretended to
espouse. Zinovieff thereupon sent to
Krassin a message which placed the
blame for the affair upon the Am
bassadors shoulders.
This double-crossing is character
istic of the Soviet procedure. No con-
Germ for the welfare Of the British
miner is felt at Moscow. The leaders
of the Third Internationale at the
Russian capital do not care whoop
for the workers anywhere. They are
seeking to use the laborers of all
countries to undermine and destroy
governments in order to sovietize the
world, with themselves as rulers.
British labor has been stung before
by the Soviet chiefs. Most of the
British industrial troubles since the
war have been due to the inceDdiary
advice of the Moscow chiefs. In this
case the Soviet leaders have been
caught red handed In a strictly com.
mercial trick. Perhaps the prestige
of Russian labor advisers will now
be lessened as a result Of this ex-

A Motor Oil Fraud.

When is a quart Of OIL not a
quart of Oil? Many motorist has
pondered this question to his cost.
Now the matter Is being taken into
the courts as a step in national cam
paign to prevent the sale Of inferior
substitutes for cylinder oil requested
by the purchaser.
When the owner of a motor car
drives into a garage or a service sta
tion and asks for the grade and make
of Oil which his engine requires, he
is entitled to receive 1t, or to learn
that the distributor has not that oil
for sale. Yet investigations have dis
closed that in many instances inferior
substitutes and wrong grades of oil
are sold.
A Nationwide campaign is now un-
der way, it Is declared, to clean up
this situation, and an injunction has
been sought against one distributing
company to prevent the sale of such
substitutes to motorists. Not only. 1t
Is declared, are the owners of automo-
biles done out of thousands of dol
lars by the sale of cheaper oil for
which the higher prices are paid by
the consumer, but also loss OF millions
of dollars in damages to motor cars
is caused by the unwilling use Of the
inferior or wrong grades of oil by
the owners of the cars.
~, nf n iS
titled to get the kind and character
of oil he demands and pays for. But
unless the dealer is honest there is no
way for the motorist TO protect him
self. All cylinder oil, as 1t pours out
of the can, looks very much the same.
1t takes an expert and a chemist to
distinguish the difference between
grades of oil. The dealer who takes
advantage of the consumer in this
matter is thoroughly dishonest and
should be prosecuted. But the proof
of such dishonesty has been difficult
to obtain.
The investigation which has been
carried on here has indicated that
most Washington dealers in cylinder
oil are honest. They either sell the
oil asked for. or they frankly say they
do not have it in stock. On the other
hand. tests made of oil purchased at
some of the stations have disclosed
that oil for which s1.20 a gallon has
been paid has cost the dealer from
13 to 20 cents. Indeed, some Of the
oil purchased was found to be crank
case DRAWINGS, which had been imper-
fectly reclaimed.
The substitution evil has grown to
heavy proportions, with 100000
motor vehicles in operation the coun-
try over, it is charged. The punish
ment of the dishonest dealer is in the
interest not only of the motorist, but
also of the honest dealer, who is de-
prived of business legitimately his.

The New York Mayoralty Fight.

When Mayor Hylan of Greater New
York announced himself as a candi-
date for a third term and Tammany
indicated that it was adverse to his
reelection a fight started for the regu-
lar Democratic nomination at the pri-
maries, which will be held next month.
Conferences of the borough leaders
resulted in a disagreement, those of
Kings (which includes Brooklyn)
Queens and Richmond, declaring for
Hylan, and those for Manhattan and
the Bronx for another, who soon was
disclosed as State Senator James j.
Walker. Hylan announced that he
would abide. by the primary result If
he were named as a primary candi-
date by a majority of tho borough
leaders BY some this was accepted
as a pledge to remain regular, by
others, owing to the peculiar phrase
ology of the statement, as a threat to
bolt in case he was beaten for the
nomination.
Yesterday the time granted by the
law for the filing of declinations of
primary candidates expired. Hylan's
name remained on the list. 1t is now
accepted by some as assured that he
will continue as a primary candidate
and will abide by the result. But the
Ifs and ands" of his pre-nomination
statement still cause concern. If beat
en- in the primaries he may still bolt
and run as an independent, and there
are fairly plain indications that that
is his program. Up to the present he
appears to be losing ground. Defec-
tions have taken place from him in
the three-borough stronghold of his
chief support.
This contest is being closely watched
by Democrats throughout the country

Enforcement Reorganization.

Reorganization of the Government g
prohibition enforcement bureau has
been effected with the selection of "a
divisional administrators. These men
have been chosen with particular care.
Nineteen of them have been retained
from the old service, II being former
State directors. 1t is believed that
they are capable and honest.
The efficiency of the enforcement
organization depends, however, large
ly upon the integrity and capacity of
the subordinate workers in the field.
Given Industrious, loyal divisional
chiefs, these field forces should be ef-
fective in executing the law. Yet
their work will be hampered, if not in
great measure nullified, without the
support of the courts. In the final
analysis the judicial branch is the de-
termining element in enforcement.
Prohibition cases pile up on the cal.
endars owing to demands for jury
trials in the lower jurisdictions and
TO delays in all the courts. Cases drag
for months without action. Witnesses
disappear or become unavailable. Re-
Gently in New York a clearance of the
court calendars in this particular line
OF cases was effected by accepting
guilty pleas with nominal penalties
from a great number of defendants.
Prohibition enforcement is possible
with thoroughly honest and efficient
organization and with prompt court
action. The present reorganization
will give the Government its best
chance to carry through a program of
strict application of the law.

ton helps to clarity a situation that
has become difficult for the District
motorist. At the same time it will per.
NIT thorough test of the boulevard
plan.
1t is to be hoped that this action
signifies that hereafter traffic rule
changes will be more deliberately
made with greater consideration for
drivers who are anxious to obey the
laws but are constantly confronted
with new requirements and new pro-
hibitions of which they have not had
sufficient notice and to observe which
requires a complete change of prac-
tice
All admit that the regulation of
the Capitals traffic is a matter of eX-
treme difficulty. The volume has
grown rapidly, and old conditions
have been for a long time left uncor-
rected to the point where street users
both afoot and awheel are perplexed
and confused. All but very few
motorists wish and earnestly try to
obey all rules. though sometimes de-
murring to their necessity or their
wisdom. They are. however, willing
to contribute to a possible betterment
of the situation by conforming to all
requirements so long as they can un-
derstand them.
There should be a period of rest
from new regulation to permit all the
motorists to become familiar with
those that now are in force and to
test them out thoroughly. Constant
changing will not yield the desired
result of improving conditions, even
though the old rules are susceptible
of change for the better

Soviet Double Crossing.

By some means not yet disclosed

passing between leaders Of the Brit
ish mine workers and certain Russian
Soviet officials have fallen into the
hands of the British government, cast
ing a light upon an interesting factor
in the recent fuel crisis in Great
Britain. 1t appears from these dis
patches that Zinovieff, one of the
triumvirate of commissars at Moscow,
had been strongly urging the British
mine union to strike. which would
have the effect of cutting off the sup.
ply Of British coal from Western Eu-
rope. At the same time, it appears,

Substitutes for Anthracite.

The Governor of Massachusetts be-
lisvss in heroic remedies in time of
need. He has called a conference of
to take action which will relieve that
section of it's dependency on anthra-
cite coal, in view of the threatened
strike. 1t is proposed TO educate the
people of the New England States to
use substitutes for hard coal, if neces.
sary, so that they may no longer be
constantly in danger of suffering
through their skins and their pocket
books because the anthracite mine
owners and workers are unable to
agree on wages and working condi-
tons.
The threat of an extended boycott of
anthracite by New England which has
always been a great consumer of hard
coal, Is already stirring the anthra-
cite region, according to the dis
patches. If it should be carried into
effect, curtailing the market of anthra-
cite, 1t might we'll have a disa strous
the mine workers. The mine oper-
ators in their discussions with the
miners, have stressed the danger of
forcing prices to such heights that the
consumers of coal will seek some other
fuel, and the stand taken by Gov. Full
Ter emphasizes still further this
danger.
The boycott is a weapon of immense
power. A buyers strike is the dread
of producers and distributors. 1t be.
comes effective, however, only when
the public is thoroughly aroused,
condition which the repeated strikes
in the anthracite field and mounting
prices have brought about in this coun-
try. The American people are easy
going, but they do not like to be nm
posed upon any more today than in
the days of the Boston tea party, when
the people of the Bay State, then
cause of the tax levied upon them by
the British government without rep
resentation." The New Englanders of
today are threatening kind of "Bos-
ton coal party" for the anthracite in
terests and workers which must strike
them as distinctly unpleasant.
The Federal Government, in the
event of a strike in the anthracite
mines, will do it's utmost to supply
the people with substitute fuel, which
for the most part means bituminous
coal. Bulletins showing the methods
of using bituminous coal in the ordi-
nary heaters of homes have been pre-
pared and issued already. And once
this cheaper fuel is found to be easily
handled in such heating plants, the
anthracite producers may have a hard
job prevailing upon the consumers to
revert to the hard COAL 1t is danger
that both sides to the present contro-
versy may do we'll to ponder. Killing
the goose that lays the golden egg is
short-sighted policy.
