THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE

made to put across seven different
railway advertising propositions
all private enterprises trying to
float on the idea that local railroad
men are keenly interested and will
be displeased whenever a firm turns
the proposition down. Members
should Danish that idea from their
minds. Local railroad men are not
fools. In one case it was found that
the railroad official whose indorse-
ment was carried took no interest
in the success of the solicitors and
would be just as we'll pleased to see
the proposition turned down by those
approached.

THE ELTlNGE


"The Dark Swan" announced as
the feature attraction at the Eltinpe
Theatre for Wednesday and Thurs
day, is the photoplay version of
Ernest Pascaps much discussed no.
vel which was published more than
year ago and has since taken rank
as one of the fastest selling novels
OF the present decade. 1t is a story
of up-to- the minute American GUS
toms and social conditions and is
not to be confused with "The Swan"
successfully produced on the speak
ing stage last fall.
Helene Chadwick has the most in.
teresting role in "The Dark Swan"
story, although Marie Provost is cast
in part which suits her admirably
and in which she cannot fail to win
new laurels. Monte Blue has the
male lead.

delivery of a load of bituminous coal
with call from an "instructing visit
ing nurse" like the uniformed nurses
who call on the sick and feed them
nourishment and tell them how to
take care of themselves.
These instructing visiting coal
nurses are not young ladies skilled in
nursing sick folks, but are trained
firemen, skilled in nursing sick fur
naces, and instructing the home folks
how to keep the furnace at the proper
temperature, and the circulating
steam or hot air coursing through the
veins of the house in a way to cheer
into full health. Their services are
free to the customer.
There is only one request that deal
ers urge upon coal consumers: 1t is
that they avoid all fears leading to a
panic, lest there might be a real short
age of fuel. There IS not the slight
est danger of a shortage Of bituminous
coal. Yet there might be a causeless
panic resulting in a furry of specula-
ton in coal paper"
When dealer buys, say 10000 tons
Of bituminous coal from a mine oper-
ator, the latter delivers to the buyer a
shipping bill or certificate from the
railroad company showing that that
lot of coal has been delivered to the
railroad company and is en- route. 1t
will be delivered only on presentation
of that shipping bill to the railroad
company at point of destination
The dealer meets a speculator and
offers to sell him the shipping bill for
81 ton above what the coal had cost
at the mine, the buyer to pay freight.
! SO he sells not the actual coal, but the
piece of paper, and clears his profits.
That piece of paper may thus pass
from hand to hand, each buyer adding
pront, and the more the public be-
comes excited over coal prices or the
coal supply, the more that paper will
bring to the speculators 1t may pass
through a score of hands before the
actual coal arrives, and the ultimate
consumer pays for his excitement in
the advanced price of coal, with no
plane attached to the mine owners
the miners or the legitimate dealers.
X X x*
There are no grounds for a panic
over any possible coal shortage, re.
gardless of a possible anthracite shut
down covering the entire Winter. 1t
IS noted that the total consumption of
antnraclte In a year Is only sc. 900 .OOO
tons. From April 1 to August 81
from the beginning of the mining wear
up " tne beginning of the present
strlke-there had been mined 39,979,
900 tons of anthracite, leaving a short.
age of only 5o.O21 900 tons. Countine
all that shortage as belonging to the
period November l to next March 81
1t would average 2,308,6 ,662 tons a week
TO be made up with bituminous in
place of anthracite.
The bituminous mines ordinari1x
average an output of 9,572,123 tons a
week; 10 cover anthracite shortage it
would be necessary to speed up to
I,sso,1so tons, aside from the fact
| that the bituminous interests had a
surplus Of 100000 tons on hand
April l. The bituminous mines today
are producing more than $4,000 ,0ol
tons a week, and have a capacity of
| 100000 to 14,0OO 900 tons.
| Nobody can corner" the supply, for
there are 1900 bituminous mines
whom controls 2 per cent of the total
output.

,ut that the Shipping Board, COM

out that the Shipping Board, COM
posed of seven members of different
political parties. representing various
sections of the country, responsible to
Congress, have a divided responsible
ity that does not make for the best
operation of the fleet.
The administration of the Govern
ment shipping by the board was de-
Tended by Chairman OConnor, who
took the position that opposition or
prevent the establishment of perma-
nent American merchant marine.
Either, he said, those who are advo-
eating a change in the present system
of operation are misled or they are
influenced by sinister desires to break
down the American merchant marine.
Included in the list of those who
have proposed that the Government
feet be operated by the Fleet Corpora
ton instead of the Shipping Board are
the President of the United States,
members of his cabinet, many men,
bers of Congress. If the charge by
Chairman O'Connor is to be seriously
considered, then the view must be
taken that either the President, his
cabinet and leading members OF Con-
gress are far less intelligent than the
members of the Shipping Board or
that they are subject to sinister inf1u-
ences which would drive the American
flag from the seas The President, his
cabinet and members of Congress are
'sot ignorant Of the facts relating 10
the shipping situation. The Whole
matter has been investigated again
and again. They are aware that some
Americans, as well as British ana
other shipping interests, are opposed
to Americas permanent continuance
in the overseas shipping business. Be
cause the President and the members
of his cabinet are opposed to cont1n-
uance of a system of operation and
control that they believe is not the
most efficient is no good reason for
saving that they are bent on breaking
down the American merchant marine.
After all the important thing in the
shipping situation is to keep the
American flag flying on the seas for
the sake of American commerce and
the national defense. The Shipping
Board and the President both would
be quick to admit this. The Shipping
Board should be willing to admit, TOO,
that there may be honest differences
of opinion as to the best method OF at
tanning this result.
