The Guffey Coal Act

| Back in 1885 John L. Lewis demanded an
act of Congress to prevent a coal strike. The
answer was the Guffey Coal act. The Supreme
Court held it unconstitutional, but two years
later revised Guffey Coal act was passed,
again under the spur Of coal strike threats.
Mr.. Lewis insisted on law such as the
Guffey act which forced the mine operators
to raise coal prices so that the mines could
pay higher wages to labor. This was an in
direct way of levying direct tax on the public
for the benefit of specified group.
The Guffey Coal act was to have expired
| in April, but the House and Senate extended
| it for thirty days on the ground that Congress
should have time to consider its renewal.
In spite Of the fact that majority Of coal
operators have been virtually subsidized to the
point Of acquiescence in this legislation.
against their better judgment as to its sound
ness as an economic principle there is an
undercurrent in Congress that it may be bet
ter to eliminate it entirely before our re.
public reaches that stage arrived at by Diocle-
tian in 300 A. D. when sons were compelled
to follow the vocations of their fathers under
PeHd1ty VI uedul. 0lOCletlan 1OrmuuateQ a
complex and vast system of price fixing,
labor relations, and a scheme of government
that CONSTRUCTED liberty to the point of making
his subjects thoroughly miserable. It broke
down.
The New York Times points out the folly
Of our endeavors to fight imitation, and at the
same time prolong the life of an act like
this which not only encourages but compels
price and wage boosting which all consumers
must pay for the benefit of a special class.
1t says in part:
If it were sound to set up selling mo-.
nopoly for the coal industry, so that it can
raise prices against the public in order to pay
miners high wages, then it would be equally
sound to turn other industries into selling mo-
|nopolies so that they could boost the price OF
their products and pay higher wages to their
workers. The Guffey Act is a fragrant contra.
diction of the economic policy that govern
ment has been advocating in other fields
Coal prices should be subject merely to cell
ings like the prices of all other necessities to.
day. This very special gift to Mr.. Lewis
ought to be allowed to expire quietly"

Heartening News

City Attorney Campbelps word that nego-
tiations for the purchase Of the Marine hos
termination is heartening.
Even though the city has agreed not to take
possession for a year after hostilities cease
the city will now be able to draft its program
for conversion Of the property into a recrea-
ton center, in combination with the adjoining
Robert Strange playground and be ready to
proceed as soon as the Army moves out.
1t is twenty-three years since Congress ap-
proved an act authorizing the city to buy
this site, but until now purchase price has
been stumbling block. Apparently this OBJ
stacle has been removed. Wilmington will well
come an announcement that the deal has
been consummated.

Storing Up Trouble

We may expect that labor disturbances TO-
mented by John L. Lewis and his ilk during
this war period will have far-reaching re-
percussions when the conflict is over. They
may bring higher wages temporarily and in
fattening the bank accounts Of Lewis ct al,
but they will not fail to produce opposition
later on which will imperil even the legitimate
a steady stream Of comment in letters ar
irving from the armed forces in combat zones.
We have just received one letter written by
a Wilmington soldier in New Guinea to his
mother which expresses the rancor soldiers
and Navy men everywhere feel toward the
strike movement This lad, who has been
in foreign service something more than a
year, says he feels as if he had been away
ten years, and is no more accustomed to the
hard life of soldering now than he was when
he first donned his uniform. II was reading
the other day., he writes, "about the men
going on a strike in the coal mines They
should be over here with US. If they were
they would not be so glad to strike. 1t sure
did make the boys here mad.'
And then he gives us an idea Of the differ
ence in the lot Of miners living snugly at
home and that Of the men on outpost and
combat service. IT am sitting here killing
bugs with one hand and writing with the
other. There are a lot Of bugs here, about
every kind you can think of. 1 have been
working on road today, and sure am tired"
Along with many tens of thousands Of other
American young men doing heroic service,
facing dangers we at home have small con-
ception Of, this youth naturally resents the in
terruption of war production caused by strikes
Their lives depend upon smooth flow of war
tools. When miners, under the baneful in
fluence Of John L. Lewis, quit the pits or
slow down in their work while Lewis engages
in treasonous controversies their danger
rises, and there is no reason to think that
when they come home they will have for
gotten what went on while they were away.
Misguided miners, who have no heart for
what Lewis is doing but are on Lewis leash
and cannot break away, are storing up trou-
BILE for themselves, as is all organized labor
against the return of the nations fighting
men. The pity Of this is that the rank and
file OF labor IS not primarily to blame but
cannot escape the vengeance that lies ahead
when the men schooled to war come home and
are demobilized

up the city with air mail, passengers ane
cargo until the situation was cured.
In one Of our leading cities, a man built .
348-foot stack one mile from the airport. The
city has tried for several years to have the
stack lowered or, at least, marked with rec
light, but so far without success.
With such examples to draw from, it is nc
wonder the Interstate and Foreign Commerce
Committee Of the House of Representatives
favorably reported the Lea-Bailey bill to
amend the Civil Aeronautics Act and estab-
lish some additional common-sense Federal
controls to aid civilian airlines. Among other
things, the bill would give the federal admin
istrator Of civil aviation the power to for.
mulate nationwide program of airport zon-
ing to assure protection Of the approaches
to airports from unreasonable obstructions.
The administrator would be required to CO.
operate with states and municipalities.
The greatest hazards to air travel are large
ly due to lack Of uniform regulations. and
to conflicting laws throughout the country.
With civilian aviation destined to expand ra-
pdly, present conditions must be improved
at the earliest possible date.

AS Others Say 1t
A HOME JOB

A group of Conservative mem
bers of Parliament have issued a
manifesto calling for the partition
of Germany into three states. Fo-
runs here at home are discussing
the political penalties to be visited
upon Germany. Others are busy
with the problem of re-educating
the German people. Specialists are
plumbing deep into the disease Of
the German mind. But there are
good many of us who hold the
idea that the answer to Germany s
future good behavior is not to be
sought in Germany at all.
Far more important thar
schemes for partitioning Germany
is the problem of setting up guar.
antees against the partitioning o1
Allied unity. Far more important
than the re-education of the Ger.
man people is the task of educat-
ing the democratic nations against
repetition of the tragic errors of
the twenty years after 1919. The
disarming of Germany is a matter
OF importance, but it is far more
important that the Allied nations
shall remain armed.
And in general the best guaran-
tee for German good behavior in
the future is our own wise and in
telligent behavior. - New York
Times.

Daily Praye,
FOR sTORMING HEAVEN

In a worldwide assault of pray
er, we would storm the battle

Thy clear and repeated promises,
we would send to Thee a world
wide surge of supplication. From
the sleepless pillows of anxious
mothers; from the hearts of strong
men who knew that their owa
strength is unequal to this emer.
gency; from the men in service,
at posts of danger or discipline
from churches and prayer meet
ings. there arises daily to Thee as
incense, the prayers of world
hungering for victory and peace
and better order. Hear US, o our
Father, hear us, and out of Thy
heart of love, and out of Thine in.
finite might, grant us speedily the
boon we crave; and the assurance
that the answer is from Thee.

Auxiliary And Protection

The weekly publication Civilian Front" {"
devoted to matters of interest to civilian de-
Tense forces, in its May IS issue notes an an
nouncement from OCD Regional Director
George S. Van Schaick, making the Coast
Guard Auxiliary of New York, New Jersey
ard Delaware available to shore communities
fer protection from enemy attack.
In all cases Of civilian protection says
this announcement, ''where the services of
small craft and skilled personnel may be
needed for rescue work. evacuation aid or to
effect any other protection plan, it is en-
tirely appropriate for local defense councils
to request the assistance Of the local unit of
the Coast Guard Auxiliary"
While this specific instance cites the aux
iiary Of three coastal states only, it is not
limited to them. The Coast Guard Auxiliary.
rs we have had reason to discover here. is
on the job not only against enemy attack.
but in any emergency that may arise. We
found this out not long ago when flames.
starting in a Wrightsville Beach cottage
threatened the resort, but were brought under
control by the efficient work of members III
the Wilmington unit.
Had it not been for the prompt action nj
these men the fire would all too probably have
swept away large section Of the beach com
could have gotten into action.
