KING HAS
RESTLESS
NIGHT
BY HARRY r. FLoRY

ny nkAnh1 ~. E4Oh
/ LONDON, Dec. 81 (I.N.s.).
News from King Georges bed
side was less reassuring today.
The King spent ! restless
night, it was officially stated
at Buckingham Palace at noon.
Earlier in the day III had been
indicated by palace attaches that
the royal patient had passed a
fairly comfortable night.
The official medical bulletin
which was issued at 1880 o'clock.
follows:
''The King passed somewhat
restless night. His general cOndi-
tiOn Is maintained, although, as
previously noted. the state Of
exhaustion still presents difficult
problem. There is a little more
readiness to take nOurishment, and
the local condition is progressing. I"
This bulletin was signed by Sir
Stanley Hewitt, Sir Hugh Rigby,
Sir r. Farquhar Buzzard, Sic
Humphrey Rolleston and Lofd
Dawson Of Penn.
Doctors Consult
The fact that the names of five
physicians were signed to the buI.
letin revealed that another consulta-
tion had been held at the palace dur.
ing the morning. This accounted
for the lateness of the bulletin,
which is usually issued about II
o'clock.
Continued Improvement in the
local condition infection of the
right lung), is permitting the doc.
tors to concentrate their efforts to
recapture His Majesty's lost
strength. The noon bulletin, how.
ever, indicates that these attempts
so far have been unavailing.
Progress Very Slow
Chief anxiety continues to focus
upon the sovereign's weakness. The
fact that His Maiesty's improve
ment for 36 hours had been almost
imperceptible was seen as a rather
bad sign.
An encouraging sign was seen
in the fact that Queen Mary eft

PUTTING 1T OFF

Putting it off, in most cases, is
pretty risky business. BY putting
it off we mean all those. things
which are necessary and that have
to be done, but which we just can't
seem to get finished.
Putting it off has cost men and
nations many hard earned dollars.
But to our mind, about the worst
part of it all is that these people
who do put things off until they
wake UP and find that some catas-
trophe has happened never seem
to learn by experience. They'll do
it again and again and then wonder

pealing for the sympathetic interest and
active patronage of the American mer-
chant marine Chairman T. v. O'Connor
of the Shipping Board last night told
the Society OF Natural Science meeting
here that the Jones-W White act. passed
by the last Congress- is stimulating
great activity among American ship
builders and ship operators. He de-
clared that after seven years Of stag
nation the American shipyards are re-
opening and if present indications count
for anything all available shipyards will
be busy Socn.
Chairman O'Connor said that owing
70 foreign competition American capital
has been cautious about investing in
steamship enterprises since the war
when the Government-owner merchant
feet was expanded. Despite this, he
added since 1921 the Shipping Board
has sold to private operators nearly
1000 vessels including number Of
established steamship services, for
100000 900
Two handicaps which have confront
ed this country in the building OF a
great privately owned merchant marine,
he said, were the increased cost of con-
struction of ships in this country COM
pared with the cost in foreign countries
and the great expense involved in OPP
Grating American ships in foreign trade
The Jones White act, Chairman
O'Connor explained has greatly encour-
aged ship building and operation by pri-
vate enterprises through its provisions
for 20-year loans equal to three-fourths
OF the cost of a ship. the making avail
able of valuable l0-year mail contracts
and through the increase Of the con-
struction loan fund to $3.50. 900, 900.

ASK COOPERATIVE
COAL MARKETING

fer Plan to Solve Indus
try Problems.

Owners Of soft coal mines and dis
tributors of that kind of fuel would be
permitted by law to form cooperative
associations as means or Solving the
problems of the btuminous industry.
under n bill introduced In Congress
TODAY by Senator Copeland and Rep
resentative Jncobstcin, both Demo
Gratis. of New York.
The measure would suspend opera
ton Of the Sherman antitrust law as
it relates to the soft coal industry.
and would permit cooperative assoc
ciations to regulate by law the mining
and marketing Of this fuel.
Waste Is Deplored.
"If these associations function prop
erly. many of the high cost mines will
GO out of business" Senator Copeland
and Representative Jacobstein said in
| Joint statement. explaining the bill.
| MANY of the surplus workers will be
transferred to other industries by an
intelligent and humane procedure.
| The drawing into the industry of
casual labor In boom times will dis
appear.
ave believe that through these co.
operative associations. the great waste
that now occurs in cross hauling of
coal across the country will be elimi.
mated. Many millions of dollars are
wasted ench year by shipping Penn
sylvania coal into Illinois and Illinois
coal into Pennsylvania, or West Vir.
ginia coal into both of these areas.
Our bill Is purely voluntary. 1t
compels the industry to do nothing
but encourages the mine owners to go
ahead. organize, and put their house
in order. Mine owners and distribu-
tors who do not desire to avail them
selves of the privileges under The law
will be left In the same position they
are in today. We believe that through
the cooperation and consolidation of
coal mining interests the public will
profit by stability in price and assur.
ance of good quality.
Monopoly Evaded.
1.-THE public is protected against
monopoly or undue restraint of trade
by giving authority to the Secretary
OF Commerce to withhold permission
to operate and to disapprove of any
association whenever such restraint of
trade results In unreasonable prices.
Labor has everything to gain and
nothing to lose from consolidation
in the coal industry. Labor unions
have been losing ground with the
increasing chaos and REORGANIZATION
In the industry. This bill gives them
hope of renewed life and vigor."
