The miners and the operators.
It is known that the Labor Depart
ment's plan. which Secretary Davis
said at the White House today is the
one that is being agreed upon, was
assented 10 by the President more
than a week ago. Before the plan WAS
submitted to the miners and operators
the President wanted to know first
inst what the Representatives. in Con
gresS from the anthracite regions of
Pennsylvania thought Of ii.
Mr. Coolidge wanted also 10 ac-
quaint those members Of the Senate
and House who. because of their com

what the administration proposed
doing Then followed the secre-
tary's communication with the oper-

Criticism Of President.
Settlement OF the strike means

followed policy Of keeping his
hands off since the strike started
September / last. but within the last
few weeks he has been the subject OF
increasing criticism from both Demo

critics and those who have been
clamoring for intervention. the Presi-
dent simply has reiterated that he
was without legal authority to bring
about q settlement and was power
less to act.
At times he would answer his
critics hv saying that he had recon-
mended legislation to Congress As

ton of the revolution; and, confronted
with such a book as Trotsky's, they
will only feel personally hurt at his
contempt for all their illusions and
evasions. In that sense they are
right in saying that Trotsky's book
will convert nobody-of themselves.
But among the youngest British work
ers, who have been bred up in the
conditions of the war and whose eyes
and ears are eager to take in the
facts, among the labor students,
among the younger trade unionists
who are winning their spurs in such
movements as the minority move
ment, Trotsky's book will be eagerly
read, and every page will give stimu-
lus, will give greater strength and
confidence, and liberation from the
enslavement to the ideas of the old
decaying stratum which still holds
the leadership and whose ideas are
only the echo Of those of the bour-
geoisie. This is the greatest service
for which the British working class
movement can be grateful for Trot-
sky's book.

What earthly reason is there for

Pain, Industry Chief
Sierra Leone Asset

The principal industry in Sierra
Leone is the palm oil industry. Up
to the present time it has been purely
domestic industry. The fruits are
collected from the wild palms and are
taken to the villages, where the oil is
prepared by boiling the fruits to re-
move the oil from the fieshy pericarp
which surrounds the nuts. The nuts
are then laid out to dry in the vii
lagos, and when dry they are cracked
one by one to obtain the kernels,
which are exported. The palm belts
form the banking institutions of the
native population. When they are in
need of money to buy clothing or do
nestle utensils or to pay their hut
tax, they go to the palm belts to col
lect the fruit in order to obtain kerr
nels, which they take to the trading
stores to convert into cash. Palm ker-
nels form the backbone Of the trade
of Sierra Leone. This country requires
large quantities of palm oil for edible
purposes and for its soap-making in
duStrieS.

Urged for Main Progress in
Timber Growing.

PREPARED by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
State rather than federal activity in
forest conservation must be looked to
for the main progress in timber grow
ing from now on, w. B. Greeley, chief
of the forest service, United States
Department of Agriculture, told the
meeting of state foresters assembled
at Washington to confer on federal CO.
operation in forestry. The federal forest
policy for good many years to come,
according to the chief forester, was
completed with the enactment of the
ClarkeMcNary law in 1924, providing
for financial cooperation in forest fire
control between the federal govern
ment, the states and private land own
ers, and the chief development hence
forth should be in the forestry under
takings of states, local institutions and
individuals.
Fifty million acres Of forest land
should be acquired by the states, coun-
ties and municipalities, In addition to
their present holdings of eleven mil
lion acres, said Mr.. Greeley, and the
federal government should add eight
or ten million acres to its present for
est area of eighty-nine million acres.

to the rapid spread Of timber growing

Escaping Infection

Well-nourished people usually es-
cape infectious illness with much
greater frequency than the malnour-
ished This often explains why one
or two in a family will miss cold
that goes the rounds of the other
members. Overweight isn't always the
sign of well-nourished person.
Muscle tone and the character of elm
ination are also factors to be consid-
cred. Departure from normal nour-
ishment can never be explained only
by amount of food consumed. Habits
of sleep, exercise and mind as well as
regularity of meals and variety of
food are all important.
