and other States There has been, and
Is, war in the coal fieldS-armed guards,
shooting. killing, hunger, privation, bit
ter poverty among people who want to
work.
It is not a new condition; it is not a
condition for which the Government
has any direct responsibility, for the
Government neither owns nor controls
the coal mines; 1t regulates neither
their prices nor the wages paid.
Nevertheless, President Hoover did not
avoid the problem. Through the agency
of his Secretary of Commerce and the
Secretary of Labor. he sought to bring
together in a national conference the
mine owners and mine workers. The
purpose was the rehabilitation Of the
soft coal industry.
That conference could not be brought
about Yet within short time the at
tempt has brought the first glimmer Of
hope in an industry where there has
been no hope for years. 1t has stirred
the people within the industry to the
realization that they must make a real
and determined effort to better condi-
tionS. 1t brought call from the preSi-
dent of the National Coal Association
for the meeting of coal operators from
the principal competitive States that
was held in New York on october 81.
About 20 plans were proposed for bet
committee is now studying these and
will make its report at a later meeting
1t is apparent that finally the mine
owners are moving toward united action
to remedy the evils of a great essential
industry that too long has been pros
trated. 1t is apparent that finally there
is q realization that unless the industry
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1931-11-08

itself can find the means for better
ment, the problem will become one for
State and Federal action.
In the reorganization Of this basic
industry 1t may be necessary to do one
or several things requiring public I'M
Outstanding and sanction. It may be
necessary, for instance, definitely to
control production. to control market
ing, to raise and keep prices at rea-
sonable level above production costs.
Reorganization Interests Public.
The public has a right to know
whether these things are necessary, why
they may be attempted and who will
benefit.
There have been millions of words
written and printed about the troubles
of the coal industry, but there Is yet
hardly any public perception Of the real
difficulties. 1t Is easy, for instance, for
the public to condemn the mine owners
in wholesale way for the misery and
degradation of the mine workers in the
absence of true understanding Of
conditions.
Certainly wages are too low in the
coal mines Certainly working condi-
lions are not what they should be. Ger
tainly the miners have just cause for
complaint.
There are mine operators-many of
them-who will make these admissions.
But always they will say, too: What
can we do about it? We are at the
mercy of cur competitors in many
States We are at the mercy of our
customers who can buy coal cheap
below production cost-from a thousand
or five thousand other mines. We are
at the mercy Of selling agencies, which

ence of labor elements in South Amer
lean politics. they probably thought
that these times of economic distress
were the ripest for specializing on
social and economic reforms, with po-
litical gains in sight
Instead, their vociferous propaganda
had an opposite effect. Their repeated
mention of communist principles-par-
ticlularly in Peru and Chile-alarmed
government employees, country farmers,
which still form the "vox populi'' in
those countries. Once their fears had
been aroused, it was an easy task for
the conservatives to gain them to
their side. Besides, there was no
other choice. They either elected the
reformers and gambled with the flu
ture, or supported the conserva-
tives-the constituted elements OF
order, the financial interests-and
placed in safety their properties.
The results Of the presidential cleo
lions in Chile, Peru and Ecuador show
that the people in those Latin Ameri-
can countries are not yet quite ready
to gamble with the future.
Election Follows Mutiny.
In Chile the elections were held only
few days after a mutiny in the navy
had been quashed and scarcely a few
months after the old regime of Presi-
dent IbaneZ had been overthrown. This
fact alone should suff1ce to attract the
attention of political students. Some
years ago 1t would have seemed i'm
possible that Latin American country
upset by revolution should return to
normally In such short time through
the legal ways set up by the constitu-
ton.
Three were the outstanding candidates
for the presidential Office. Juan Este.
ban Montero, who had been called upon
to head the provisional government
which succeeded the revolution, was the
choice of the conservative and nation.

PRAGUE.-Systemat attention to the
general welfare of American students
staying in Prague this year is being
paid for the first time by the American
Institute, founded last Spring in the
Czechoslovak capital. Previously the
Y. M. G. A. and various student associa-
tons endeavored to look after the in
terests OF young Americans studying
here, but such effort lacked co-ordina-
ton.
The American Institute, the purpose
OF which Is to promote better under
standing between America and Czecho-
slovakia, holds 1t among its most i'm
portant duties to assist American guests
in their first, bewildered days in Prague.
Party Is Arranged.
Accordingly, week end party was
organized at the resort of Zbraslav,
near Prague, where during the warm
Indian Summer days, more than thirty
Americans went to spend a few days
and listen to lectures on different as
poets of Czechoslovakian national life.
The visitors stayed at Zbraslav three
days, during which time they had fun
opportunities Of procuring all the In
formation necessary for their further
studies in Prague.
The students included representatives
OF very diverse interests-agriculture,
history, sociology. journalism. etc. They

Hawaiian National
Park Draws Tourists

HONOLULU, Hawaii.-Healthy in
crease in the attendance of visitors at
Hawaiis national park Is shown by
figures just compiled. For the fiscal
year 1e30-31 the visitors totaled 1895,
as compared with s9,578 during the
previous year. Both visitors from
abroad and visitors from among Ha-
waits own residents helped to make
this large total. And according to
present indications the year 1922
will make another record.
The park itself, of which the central
feature is the active volcano Kilauea,
is being made more accessible to
visitors by roads. trails and increased
hotel, cottage and camp facilities. The
other big division of the national park,
that centering around the mighty ex-
tinct crater of Haleakala, on the
Island of Maui is also being opened
up with a motor road Hitherto 1t has
been accessible only by horse.

ARTS, France.-The Manchurian
- crisis is putting the worlds
peace machinery to crucial
L test. The covenant Of the
League of Nations, the Kellogg
peace pact and the regional nine-power
treaty all have been invoked, mixed
arbitration tribunal has been proposed
and mediation has been attempted.
The result thus far is literally nil,
but the struggle for present and future
peace Is far from ended. The machin-
cry is right now in full action. The
strain on it Is terrific, but the hopes Of
its partisans that it will yet succeed
still run high.
Great precedents are being estab-
lished. Juridical disputes of many
years standing are being settled almost
unwittingly. If peace now wins over
war, a great step forward will SEEM
ingly have been taken.
The outcome is still uncertain, but
the issue is clear. 1t is whether ma
lions In the future shall settle their
ouarrels by peaceful means in accord
they shall attempt at will and by mill
tary force to take the law In their
own hands.
Incidentally, unless the League and
the United States can end the war in
Manchuria by January, 1t appears quite
useless to attempt to hold the disarm-
ament conference scheduled for Feb
ruary 2, for the feeling of tension and
insecurity throughout the world would
be such that even talk of disarmament
would be temporarily impossible.
Settles Attitude of U. s.
Surprising, however. that the peace
machinery now functions successfully,
the tendency, already discernable, Is
toward four momentous results:

Army Spends Million
Secretly in Hawaii

HONOLULU, Hawaii.-Military de-
lenses Of Oahu, built with much secrecy
by the Army itself-not by public con-
tract-wiu be augmented during the
next few years. It is estimated that
between $750. 900 and 81 100000 will be
spent in a system of gun emplacements
and other defenseS which will be con-
structed under the direction Of Army
engineers.
The necessity for secrecy as to the
plans made 1t impossible for the war
department to pass out to contractors
plans and specifications. The work is
to be done with citizen labor only, and
most of the materials and supplies will
be purchased in Honolulu.
About three years of work are ahead
Of the engineers on the plans already
approved. An even larger amount Of
work on barracks, officers quarters, fly
ing fields, ETC., is being done on Oahu
by public contract.
