Helena, Mont.
Friends:
Received the November Sth copy of
the People Voice today.
Noticed the "Why the COP Land
slide" QUESTIONABLE, and would like
to express my opinion as follows:
First: People were, of course, tired
of controls, and because of the failure
of government to really maintain eff
fective controls, developed ito hell
with it all'' attitude.
Second: When people are prospes-
Gus as now, they tend to turn ito the
right" and when in economic diff
culties, to the left.
Third: In foreign policies, the con-
trolled press has created and develop
ed feeling Of fear, distrust, and sus-
picion toward Russia. This, of course,
along with the Byrnes, Vandenberg at
titude, has, think led to the feeling
that we should perhaps repudiate to
an extent the Good Neighbor" poll
cies, adopt policy of combination
of get tough" and isolationism.-
Yours truly, PLATO PICKENS, SR.

London.-Average weekly earnings
of British workers have reached an all
time high of $40, the ministry of labor
announced this week. The figure rep
resents an increase of 500 over 1888.
One reason the average has shot up
in recent months is the large scale
withdrawal from industry of women,
who in many cases get as little as 500
of the pay given men on the same
Jobs.

w. E. Koepler, secretary of the
P~ocahontas Operators association,
expressed the opinion on the stand
that lower freight rates on coal
are necessary to stimulate coal
markets in the Carolina area, ano
to enable producers to develop
markets where oil and natural gas
have reduced the amount of coal
consumed.
OF Mutual Interests
He said the problem of freight
rates was one of mutual interest
to railroads, coal producers and
consumers.
Maj. H.. E. Boyd, of the Whining
ton Port Traffic association further
testified about the vital interest Of
Wilmington in lower freight rates
on coal and the struggle that the
industrial agent would nave in Sc
curing heavy coal consuming in
dustries at Wilmington. He said
where Wilmington enjoys a 35-
cent per ton differential rate, that
differential must remain in effect
If not, it will only divert heavy
coal consuming industries else.
