ing attack from those who feel

asked everywhere Why the United

LO, THE POOR WORKMAN!

Concrete work collapsed on a
Washington, D. c., apartment house.
Two building inspectors were held to
the grand jury for manslaughter. But
the engineer commissioner of the
District of Columbia said they were
innocent of wrong and so that's that.
1t develops that inspectors in the
nations capital are paid by the con-
tractors and not by the city. Every
intelligent person will suspect that
such inspection will be the kind that
suits the contractor. And the con-
tractor doesn't care particularly be-
cause he insures himself against the
risk. So, whether or not a workman
is killed in Washington, under the
laundering guns of congressional
righteousness, is all a matter of in
surance rates, and the levil take the
unlucky hindmost when a collapse
occurs! In some ways our civiliza-
ton is wonderful.

WOULD REGULATE OIL
BUT NOT COAL

The chairman of the federal trade
commission recently joined with the
executive board of the American Pc
troleum Institute (oil producers) to
devise methods to check production
in this industry.
E. B. Reeser, president of the in
stitute, declared that the meeting was
"a red letter day in the oil indus
try" and that the institute "has def
nitely gone on record as favoring
the use of a policeman to help con-
serve the nations greatest natural
resources"
The United Mine Workers of Amer
lea are urging similar legislation for
the coal industry, but they are oppos-
ed by coal owners who claim such
action is unconstitutional.
The government is aiding the oil
owners, while the coal owners face
an identical ituation-over-de
ment and waste for an equally impor.
tant natural resource.
The oil conservation proposal doe:
not include any reference to workers
The miners conservation program
would outlaw the yellow dog" an,
permit this union to function.
Is that the reason why Uncle San
aids business interests to blow no
in the case of oil and cold in the cas-
of coal ?

UP TO UTILITIES

Judson King, director of the Ma
tional Popular Government League,
has issued a challenge to the utility
interests that they must meet, eventu-
ally if not now. If the untilities do
not take up the challenge, the public
can draw only the conclusion that
they are unable to meet it.
Replying to an attempt of the
utility interests to explain why do
mestic electrical service costs two to
FIVE times as much in the United
States as it does in the province of
Ontario, Canada, where the electrical
system is publicly owned, Mr.. King
charges American utility companies
do not know what it costs them to
serve different classes of customers
because they do not keep scientific
cost accounting. They charge what
the traffic will bear" he adds.
If what Mr.. King says is not true,
it ought to be easy for the utility
interests to show that his assertion
is unfounded If they remain silent
it will be pretty good proof that they
can not refute the charge.

TWO-FACE CENSORS

"The war gave the individual an
inferiority complex" said Congress
man Black on the floor of the house
in opposing a proposed federal CEN
sorship of movie pictures.
1.-The reformer assumed guardian
ship at the end of the war; said the
New York lawmaker.
"The arguments fof censorship are
largely based on the theory that the
national government. is Sort OF
hierarchy; that Americanism is are
ligion which denies the right OF
choice to the individual conscience and
sets up standard of morals in con-
formity with the notions of the poll
tical group in power.
"The strange thing about the re-
formers who advocate motion pic
ture censorship is that they claim
there is crime wave due to the pic
lures. but when the same reformers
argue for prohibition they insist thai
prohibition has eliminated crime"
