How closely rail and coal interests
are associated in the battle against
the miners union is revealed in recent
announcements concerning freight
rates on coal from southern fields to
lake ports. Negotiations are appar-
emily in progress to nullify the inter
state commerce commissions recent
reduction in rates on Pennsylvania
and Ohio coal through voluntary re-
auctions by roads hauling coal from
Virginia, West Virginia and Kentucky
mines.
The Norfolk & Western, itself a
large owner of West Virginia coal
lands, announced that effective Aug.
10 the rates on coal shipped to Lake
Erie ports would be cut 10c ton and
that the Chesapeake & Ohio and Louis
vile & Nashville would make similar
reductions. Later it announced that
this reduction had been cancelled. The
New York Times says:
"This marks another step in the bat
tie being waged by mine operators,
railroads and the interstate commerce
commission over the question Of re-
ducing freight rates on lake cargo
coal, with the mine owners of western
Pennsylvania and eastern Ohio the
victors, at least temporarily"
The Times should have included the
United Mine Workers in its list of
participants in the battle. The fight
started several years ago when the in
terstate commerce commission began
favoring the entry of non-union West
Virginia and Kentucky coal into north
western markets normally supplied by

Ancient Customs in Japan

Y. NJ, in making an address, told the
graduates that large numbers of par
ents of educated daughters had ap-
piled to him to act as go-between in
finding responsible christian men as
husbands.
"Some of you might like to come
around to my house and see the pho
tographs and descriptions" he added
seriously. Possibly you might be-
come interested in some of them"
This is suggested to American Y.
M. C. A. and institutional churches
the Rev. John Haynes Holmes please
take notice. If the church considers
marriage a sacrament, why not help
organize the preliminaries. Surely
a good go-between would be god

Many Babies.
We had taken the interurban from
Yokohama up to Toxic, a 40-minute
run The trip was strange combina-
ton of east and west. The inter-
urban whizzed along from station to
station between construction jobs as
modern and as noisily progressing as
anything in New York. But in and
out moved men and women clad in
neatly compact kimonos, pattering on
wooden clogs across the pavements.
Often the women had babies tied to
their shoulders, gay scarlet, blue or
yellow little bundles bound to their
mother by long scarf and clinging
to her like squirrel to tree-trunk.

similar tremendous pace, so that &C
cording to the existing programme
for the decade 1922 to 1923 their
strength will be increased in the case
of the leading naval powers by sew
eral dozen per cent, and in the case
of the backward powers by hundreds
per cent.
Small Countries in Race.
The rate of increase in the air fleets
is far and away greater than that Of
the navies. This is due to the pro-
gress made in aviation, to the circum-
stance that within the last. few years
the mass-production of aeroplanes has
commenced and also to the attention
which has been devoted to aviation
by the military science of the
future. Just the few countries
bordering on the Soviet Union = Fin
land, Esthonia, Poland, Roumania,
Latvia and Lithuania have four
times as many warplanes as there
were in the whole world in 1913. The

VICTORY NEAR ON CORN BORER
An Enemy Threatening to Destroy
$4,000, 100000 of Crops

One Of the greatest battles in mod
ern history-a peacetime battle, but a
bitter one nevertheless-is now being
waged against an enemy that has
threatened $10,O00,O0O,OOO worth of
American crops. The federal govern
ment has appropriated the sum Of
S1O,OO0,0O0 to carry on the fight and
several state legislatures have been
enlisted in the cause. For the enemy
is the European corn borer, the most
deadly menace that has ever made its
appearance in the corn fields Of the
country Although victory in this
war Is now in sight, according to the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, it can only be won by keeping
Up the fight until the "assin Of the
corn field" is thoroughly whipped.
And that is a matter which is every
body's concern-not only the farmer
who raises corn but everyone who is
in any way connected with the agri-
