BOOTLEG COAL

COV. GEORGE H. EARLE of Pennsylvania has
~ just refused the request of anthracite coal op-
orators that he send state police to stop some 5000
men from digging coal company lands and selling
it throughout the East.
Gov. Earle said the state would act only on
the request of the local officials But as local senti-
ment is back of the bootleggers no such request is
anticipated He said the operators themselves could
solve the problem by reopening of the mines
they have closed for efficiency purposes
The Governors rundown of the great coal COM
panies makes improbable any official action to pre-
vent the continuance of the bootleg coal business
crazy. ramShackle structures on a thousand hills
above dangerous hand-dug holes in which men work
at the hardest kind of labor; hundreds of trucks
carrying the iegtimate product in competition with
the regular industry, taking $300OO0OO of annual
revenue away from the latter.
In Washington, however, hopes of a solution are
put forward by Thomas Kennedy, who is Lieutenant
Governor of Pennsylvania and secretary-treasre of
the United Mine Workers
He said plan of work equalization" would be
presented to the anthracite operators in wage nego
tlations scheduled to open in New York Feb. "a
It is assumed that the plan would involve an
agreement by the operators to open some of the
closed mines for the relief of stranded communities.

NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-Charlie
IN Chaplin and Prof Einstein ask

It behooves the world to listen.
why is it" asked the author Of
relatively, speaking before a class of
California college students, that
this magnificent chronological adj
vancement of which we are all so
proud, has brought mankind so little
happiness?"
And then he answers his own
question by saying, 1T is because
we have not yet learned to make
sensible use OF it."
Chaplin, without the aid of words,
says the same thing in his new
movie, Modern Times" 1t is the
same old Chaplin in baggy trousers.
But make no mistake about it: he
is so appealing and we understand
him so well because he SymbolizeS
not clown but the whole human
race.
The pathetic figure who stands,
at the beginning of the picture, with
a wrench in each hand, Simultan-

stream of steel plates goes by upon
an endless belt, is symbol of mod

which British bishop voiced before

less than masquerading monopolies,
operating openly in violation of the
spirit and purpose of the antitrust
laws.
And all of this is going on with
the knowledge and consent of exec
utive and judicial branches of the
government. How naive one must
be to accept the thesis that "basic
point quotations do not prevent the
consumer from getting the benefit
of local F. o. B. quotations which
might be had if no tacit under
standing existed among producers.
Under those circumstances, it is
impossible to have really open
market, regardless of what the con-
struction of our infallible Supreme
Court may have been about this in
nocent-looking conspiracy in re-
straint of trade.
Let one or more of the conspira-
tors try to break away from this
price quotation" control, and see
how quickly the monopoly monster
closes in on the trace jumper. Cap
italism can survive only if it is
real open market economy, without
any semblance OF monopoly The
kind of capitalism operating in this
country is not that kind.
The fact that it is being bolstered
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1936-02-25

by consumer support from the pub
lie treasury does not give it legiti-
mate standing as real capitalism.
Effective competition does not exist.
Production is not according to con-
SumerS' needs, but only according
to producers dictates. The result is
just as it must necessarily be, IN
der those conditions. We have wide
spread unemployment, government
loans to bolster a false capital and
debt structure and a shortage of
consumable goods.
This sort of capitalism can be
regulated as effectively as the
weather. When the end of the rope
is reached, in this administration of
Federal credit and relief hyodermic,
we shall witness a huge collapse of
the whole folly, somewhat similar to
the collapse of copper prices during
the early part of this depression.
We see here a RECOMMENDATION of
consumers, forgetting that in the
final accounting it is the consumer
who gives value to production. The
consumer is the goat of our spurious
capitalism. We do not want to I'M
scramble the conspiracy of capital
and production, but we shall wash
up the whole abomination sooner or
later.
The consumers eventually will
combine to destroy production mo-
IL. i
enterprise in co-operatives, or we
will see collapse of consumer de-
mand great enough to smash the
producers s. regardless of their re-
straint on production.

THE first essential in dieting is
Il that you DE in good health
otherwise before you can afford to
reduce. If your doctor gives his
approval, you can lose about two
pounds a week by taking an ar
rangement of food that provides
about 1900 or 1400 calories a day.
Here is one days menu of 1900
calories that includes all your body
needs in the way of proteins, car
bohydrates, fats, mineral. salts and
vitaminS:
Breakfast: One-half orange,
two eggs, one thin piece dry
toast, coffee sweetened with sac
charm, two tablespoons of thin
cream, and one small cube of
butter.
Lunch Slice of lean meat,
two tablespoons peas or string
beans, one-half head of lettuce
with a little French dressing.
Dinner: Clear boillon, two

rots, one-half head lettuce with
French dressing, one-half orange,
one-fourth of cup of milk, a
slice of thin. bread toast, and a
small cube of butter.
If there is any food on the list
that you do not like, it is easy to
substitute. One-half grapefruit can
be substituted for the orange; an
egg may be taken instead of the
meat; cucumhers, radishes, aspara-
gus, tnrnips, cabbage, spinach, or
watercress may be used as alter
nate vegetables: or several may be
taken at one time to make up a
salad 81
Occasionally, berries or tomato

may be substituted for the orangt
or the grapefruit.
TTERE is another menu developed
L. l. by a medical authority. 1t con-
tains a little over 1000 Galleries, anc
if you will eat just these foods anc
no others and carry on your norma
work, you will lose from two to two
and one-half pounds week. If you
do extra work or take more exercise
you will lose more.
Breakfast: Two small oranges
or one large one; one egg. one
slice toasted bread (thin); one
small square butter; one glass
skim milk; one cup tea or coffee,
clear.
Luncheon or dinner: One cup
consomme; one medium slice
roast beef; three heaping table
spoons spinach; one salad con-
tanning eight stalks of asparagus
on two leaves of lettuce, with
vinegar; six heaping tablespoons
of sliced peaches; one glass skim
milk; one cup clear tea.
Supper: Three heaping table
spoons of cottage cheese; three
heaping tablespoons of cauliflow-
er, one baked tomato, one-third
head lettuce with lemon juice or
vinegar, six heaping tablespoons
of red raspberries; one glass skim
milk; one cup clear tea.
This diet contains" you may
insist, twice as much food as
usually eat" But this observation
is faulty. The list contains variety
of ingredients, but all are chosen
with exact knowledge of what the,
provide in the way of calories ane
essential food substances.

DEPRESSION NOT ENDED,
WRITER CLAIMS

BY III. L. Seeger
The presumption seems to prevail
that we are recovering from the So
called depression.
If the hypodermic of relief and
Federal credit were removed from
the business structure, we would
see at once how unsound the So
called recovery of business really is.
Recovery based on increased prices,
rather than on increased consump-
ton, is fundamentally unsound.
There could be no more violent
presumption than that American
capitalism has provided a free and
open market, regulated by the law
of supply and demand.
Our economic structure has de-
generated into a producers monop-
oily, that operates on the basis OF
the consumer be damned. More

ROD AND STREAM
BY GEORGE HUBER,

T 7 is feet were braced against the
- boat railing. His left arm was
almost torn from its socket.
- = His fingers were numb and
blistered from turning q reel which
still let out line in spite of the heavy
drag. But what did it matter? He
had sailflsh dancing On the other
end Of the line-and one with a fight
ing heart. They all have fighting
hearts.
Harry p. Kilgore was telling about
the emperor of Florida waters which
he did not bring back from West Palm
Beach. He had hooked that fighting
blue and silver specimen at 3:20 pm.
At 4:30, after half a dozen mad rushes
had lowered the line to the danger
point more than once, Kilgore finally
reeled his sailfish up to the boat. 4
beautiful fish 1t was too, all tired out
for the moment, but never defeated.
A quick measurement-7 feet inches,
roughly-and 1t was released. Kilgore
didn't have a gold button fish.
He has been fishing Florida waters
for six years trying to capture a gold
button sail. and he still is trying. It's
the greatest, most exciting sport IN the
world, he says, where a man matches
his skill against that Of one of the
"fghtingest" fish that ever took hook.
According to Kilgore, there is nothing
to compare with 1t.
You troll a baited hook behind the
boat. You feel a slight strike.
You throw off all drag and let the line
run out with the forward motion Of
the boat. The fish will return and
grab the bait which a moment before
it had only stunned with its sword.
It starts out a mile minute. You
count 10. then heave back and set the
hook and the battle is on. It may he
an hour before you reel 1t In, an hour
filled with leaps that clear the water
and send the spray flying for yards
around and long swift rushes that
strip the reel Of hundreds of feet O.
line. Or, II the hook has not been set
deep enough, it may last only a few
minutes and the big torpedo will toss
your hook so feet away with q con-
temptuous shake of its head. That's
fishing In Florida.
