PITTSBURGH, Sept. Is. (P-- Shackled by economic and labor difficulties, the bituminous coal industry looks hopefully toward the national capital
 Western Pennsylvania, haraSsed by the long strike of it's miners, is facing another winter, and op- orators and workers, though em- bittered by months of futile ne gotiation, nevertheless are pre- pared to lay their quarrel before the Federal government.
 Weeks of peace efforts were cll- maxed recently by the proposal of Pittsburgh mine owners that the government take over the indus try. This plan met quite gen. orally with approval.
 Operators, blaming over-produc- tion and economic conditions for the market collapse, agree that non profitable operations must be eliminated.
 Some proponents of the govern ment control plan suggested merg- ing of the more substantial oper- ators, but others pointed to the shadow of the Sherman antitrust law across such project.
 Readjustment of freight rates is necessary, most operators insist. The recent lake cargo decisions coupled with demands of the miners unions are termed major obstacles in the path to prosper ity's return.
 The miners insist wages must be adjusted upward, that they must have improved working conditions and a higher standard of living and that the full demands of their union must be granted.

PEACH BRANDY IS
 BEFORE AUTHORITIES

RICHMOND, Va, Sept, Is, (P)- The Chamber of Commerce has asked the State and Federal au- tllorities here whether it would be legal for fruit growers to conserve surplus peaches by placing them raw in jars with only sugar to pre- serve them, to be sold.
 The question was placed before the authorities because after 3 lapse of time the peaches would likely become brandy and State officials concluded that if brandy peaches could be made that the juice surrounding them was not alcoholic, there would be no viola tion of the law.

GULF BALL WEIGHT
 TO BE INCREASED

NEW YORK, Sept. Is. (P-An announcement was made here that the golf ball, long the sub- ject of augmentation since it's size was increased, it to be changed |again Officials of the golf asso- |ciation said that the ball will be increased in weight, from the l.55 ounces at present, to 1892 ounces. The size will remain the same as lat present.
 This change was brought about because of the inability to make the light ball and the resultant
 high scores turned in by the ma-
 jority of the players. With the new weight it is hoped that the ball will be easier to control.

NEEDS MORE INCOME

Winter is approaching and the children's school expense will be higher this year than last. Bill looks forward to less income in the regular way. Many industries have shifted to the "zigzag" plan for their employees in an effort to help everyone thru the winter This means that each employee will have about half as much in come Prices of clothing and food have come down some, but not in keeping with the "zigzag" income. There will be just as much coal to buy and rent to pay Bill must have more money than he can expect from his usual sources.
 He has some money in the sav- ings bank drawing per cent in tereSt. While it is true that money was put there for rainy day it isn't bringing him any income worth mentioning; and $20 or $40 or even $100 of that wouldn't go very far on a rainy day" He needs more money coming in.
 Bill Jones is the average Amer ican. He knows that many a man in exactly his financial condition has invested part of his money and has made enough return to give him the added income he needed. But Bill knows there IS some speculation with every in vestment, no matter what it is or how good it sounds.
 He doesn't know whether he should take any chances on either his savings account or his present income Of course his savings ac- count is not absolutely safe; he realizes more money has been lost by depositors thru bank failures during the last 10 years than thru any single line of investment other than the stock market crash in 1929. Being a true American and realizing that nothing risked, nothing gained" he likes to take a chance. Bill is a cautious fel- low and wants to speculate, but he doesn't want to lose his money.
 So he losses aside all the wild eyed" promises and impractical guarantees that flood the mails and seeks out a chance to specu- late with the safety of flowing oil we'll to fall back on if the we'll he bets on turns out to be dry. If the new we'll comes 1n big, Bill should make a ' ptot-t of 10 times his investmenJ- Il he doesn't he still has his money where it should pay him dividends, over period of years, twenty times larger than the savings bank interest. And he has the speculative chance of making a real fortune if the new well comes in good. He wants to speculate with his fingers crossed" as it were, and that is exactly what he does when he accepts our spe- cial Pool offer, and shares in one gusher while we drill for another.
 Write us for full information, but better still-mail us $40, $100, or even $20O, and share in our next dividend. If you are like Bill Jones, we might help you. E. M. ThOmassOn & Co.,, Inc.

Wages have been cut

He goes on to point out that while
Hoover and Green talk about re
sisting Wage-cuts," wages are being
cut by all industries, and that "the
process of downward adjustment pro-
ceeds at an accelerated pace but
without publicity"
Hoover is suppressing the pub

HAYES BODY MEN
BLOCK ATTEMPT
TOFIRE LEADERS
Unorganized; But Win
the Struggle

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, May I'll
The water sanders of the Hayes
Body Corporation walked out a few
weeks ago on Saturday afternoon in
protest against working overtime.
When they appeared for work the
morning of May 18, they found that
Plant Manager Staples had fired
three Of them, those he considered
the leaders in the walk-out.
The men all notified Staples that
they would strike at once If the
three were not rehired, and won
their point.
The next morning, crowd of the
workers outside the plant cheered
speeches of Comrades Lewis and
Ross. The police arrested the two
as the workers went back to work.
Thirty per cent of the force in
the Marmon plant we're laid off May
10. Half the office force was laid
off May 16. The speed-uup makes
1t possible to do this.
