SULLIVAN SAYSRED|
CHARGE IS PRECISE
School Showing Cannot Be
Refuted, He Retorts to
Mrs. Norton.

Taking exception to the statement
that charges regarding Communism
in the public schools were based on
prejudice rather than fact, George E.
Sullivan today said the precise show
ing" Of those making the charges can
not be refuted.
The statement by Sullivan, chair
man Of the special committee Of the
Federation Of Citizens Associations on
elimination Of anti-patriotic matter
from public schools, was in reply to a
radio address Monday night by Chair
man Norton Of the House District
Committee.
Mrs. Norton denounced the So
called red rider, which forbids the use
of any District appropriations in pay
ing the salary of any one teaching or
advocating Communism in the public
schools, as IAN insult to every patriotic
school teacher in Washington"
Claims Charge Is Improved.
She added: The charge that has
been made regarding Communism in
the public schools of Washington has
not been proven. So far as have been
able to learn upon investigation, I
would say that it has been founded
upon prejudice, not fact"
In reply, Sullivan said:
IAN impartial and painstaking in
vestigation was conducted by spe-
cial committee OF the Federation Of
Citizens Associations. as you are
aware. and a precise showing made
Of anti-patriotic and pro-Communistic
matter in the public schools of WASH
iEgton in existence for some years
past. No one has been able to point
out as yet wherein any portion Of
such precise showing Is in any sense
without basis in fact, much less that
it is founded upon prejudice"
Instances Are Remarked.
Sullivan then set forth several in
stances Of alleged customary steps
in the Communistic scheme" which
have already been brought out, and
added:

SHIPPING Of COAL
BYP|PE LINE SEEN
Association May Use Rail
Substitute Unless Rates
Are Cut, 1t Says.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The possibility that coal-carrying
railroads might be confronted with
competition from coal transportation
by pipe line was presented yesterday
at an Interstate Commerce Commits
sion freight rate hearing.
John D. Battle, executive secretary
of the National Coal Association, op-
posing a plea by class l railroads for
indefinite extension of emergency
freight surcharges scheduled to expire
July /, cited "piped coal" as a possible
shipping medium unless rail rates are
whitfield down.
Battle explained after the hearing
that the coal would be propelled
through an to 10 inch pipe line by
water under pressure.
Coal Ground for Piping.
The coal first would be ground as
fine as talcum powder" he added. and
dried at its destination. 1t would be
used in powdered form in furnaces
designed for the purpose.

at intermediate points to keep the coal

Opinion on Surcharges.
AS to the surcharges, Battle told the
commission they had cost some rail-
roads more in added transportation
expenses on coal for their own use
than they had provided in revenue.
Railroads have contended that the
charges are necessary to aid them in
meeting rising operating expenses The
charges are estimated by the carrier
to provide slO4,50O,0O0 of additional
revenue annually.

the color of jealousy; was it the color,

The word sank into his thoughts
