Coal Strike Call

With The steel strike and the Gen
eral Motors strikes settled and pro-
duction in a fair way to proceed, John
L. Lewis orders some 100000 bitumi-
nous coal miners to quit work at mid
night on Sunday and so tie up the ma
tons reviving industry.
Reconversion has already suffered
seriously from strikes. If no settlement
is effected in the few days remaining
before the coal strike it will be impos-
sible for heavy industry to get into pro-
duction.
So what is to be done? Lewis has
walked roughshod over the govern
ment in the past, yes, even when the
lives of American fighting forces were
subjected to graver perils than they
had faced before because of him. Is
he to be allowed to do so again?
His present action in calling this
strike is even less defensible than any
in the coal industry he has previously
ordered, in that the operators offered
to meet the pay increase of eighteen
and one-half cents an hour given steel
workers and which is generally accept
ed as the basis for negotiation be-
tween industry and union labor. But
Lewis demands that the coal operators
must also contribute a royalty toward
a health and welfare fund-another
means of increasing the cash reserve
of the Lewis union over which Lewis
would have complete jurisdiction.
One thing is certain. There must
be no interruption of coal production,
if industry is ever to get back into
normal production. Congress having
failed to adopt legislation which would
have blocked Lewis, the only course
open is federal seizure of the mines.
This has had to be resorted to in the
past. There should be no hesitancy now
in doing it again. 1t is unsatisfactory
in the extreme, but at least it keeps
coal coming from the pits.
But even when coal is produced
with the American flag at the tipples
and finally operators and miners reach
an agreement, that does not dispose of
the No. l menace to the American way
of life, John L. Lewis. That is a job
for Congress which has sidestepped it
too long.
There can be no national security,
no industrial safety, until Congress
places safeguards around industry and
controls over union labor.

Mckinney On
BRIDGE
By WILLIAM E. MCKINNEY
BY WILLIAM E. MCKINNEY
Americas Card Authority

There are a great many play
ers who consider Howard Schen-
ken one of the greatest rubber
bridge players in the country. He
gets every trick out of hand.
Schenken played today's hand
at four spades doubled.
West opened the nine of dia-
monds, Schenken won with the ace
and cashed the king, discarding a
heart from dummy. Then he led
the jack of diamonds, West ruffed
with the deuce of spades and dunn
my over-ruffed with the three.
The jack of hearts was led, West
won with the king and returned a
heart, East winning with the ace.
The third heart was won by Schen-
ken with the ten-spot The club
finesse was taken, the ace of clubs
cashed and the six of clubs ruffed
with the seven of spades.
Now you can see that West was
helpless. When Schenken led the
eight of hearts, West had four
spades to the king-ten, while
Schenken had the acequeen-eight
of spades and the jack in dummy.
West could make Cnlv one trick.

St. George and Richard Dosher
took a chance at buying the
strange creatures Messrs. Daniel
son and Benson caught. And it
turned out later that Messrs. St..
George and Dosher lost money for
their adventure into the business
because, according to my notes,
they were able to sell their buys
at approximately $3.50 per bushel.
But they did have the satisfac-
ton of knowing that they started
what is today Southport's chief in
dustry - shrimping. Because 9TH
ers started trying their hand at
shrimping, rugged themselves out
with regular sArinping gear. and
soon dozens of the watermen
around Southport were shrimping
mainly for living.
Too, the industry grew so rapidly
that in 1915 shrimp-canning fac
tory was started at Southport and
soon Southport was one of the most
important shrimping towns on the
Atlantic coast.
There isn't a shrimp cannery at
Southport now. Mainly because in
recent years the catches haven't
been any too heavy down there
and. anyway, there has been too
much of demand for freshly
caught shrimp for anybody to
bother to can them.
However, only recently several
Southportians have purchased and
outfitted the larger type shrimp
boats so that the shrimpers can
work farther off shore and STAY
out longer each trip, so it may be
that shrimp .cannery will be
needed again.
Now for the last notes in this
pad, l give completely up. All it
says here is, GEE. Manuelsen

KING SOLOMON'S MINES

Once in the Sudan, a mining en-
gineer invited me to join an ex-
petition into Ethiopia, in search OF
King Solomon's mines, to which he
said, they had a sure clue. Evil
IDENTIFY the quest was not success
full else the world would have
heard of it.
So I have never been sorry that
was not diverted from my own
work into treasurer hunting. As the
cablegrams have made tragically
clear, the quest for Ethiopia S
treasure still goes on - to the
neglect of the more routine but al
SO more glorious work of helping
build a neighborly world, ana of
establishing righteousness on the
earth.
Gold is not humanity's greatest
need, but character and justice and
kindness are. Whoever uncovers
these to the world is more prof
ltaOle servant of his generation
than the one who finds again the
mines of Solomon.
we would be treasure-hunters, o
God and covet earnestly the best
gifts. Give us, we pray, soul rich

The tough part of trying to write.
up somebody or something, I find,
comes in the taking of notes. I'm
somewhat embarrassed when ]
have to whip out pad and pencil,
and start jotting down what folks
tell me. First place, I'm more than
ordinarily poor as a jotter downer.
A couple of hours after l jot down
few items I can't tell whether
the jots are laundry list or a
memorandum to get around to the
bank fast.
Second place, I always feel when
I whip out the note-pad that I'll
make whoever I'm talking to self
conscious and he, Or they, won't
then 60 ahead and just tell me
naturally what I'm trying to find
out.
But the main reason is the first.
Once my notes get cold I'm lost.
There is an item or two I ex-
pect to mention herein today - if,
indeed! I ever get around to it
that I'd fully intended putting off
until next week or later. Mainly be-
cause I mentioned kindred items
yesterday and I'd a little rather
be more varied. But I'm afraid I'll
forget what the notes are about
entirely.
So, l see here on one soiled and
crumpled page something about
the Queen Victoria medal. Well,
the best 1 can make out is that
Knute Tobiasen, Southport, who
was in charge of the U. S. Gov
eminent Quarantine Station down
there - at Southport - about as
long as there was any quarantine
station was awarded the medal. He
won it back in 1886.
1t seems, the best can tell from
my, notes, Mr.. Tobiasen was a
member of e Norwegian bark, or
barque, cruising or fishing in the
North Sea when his vessel came
upon an English ship in distress.
Mr.. Tobiasen and his mates saved

When the BODY is complpteI, d.

During physical exertion, heat pro.
duction rises, and this causes tbe
blood which flows through the
brain to stimulate the control spot
The nerves carry the impulses
to the skin vessels, which dilate
thus causing more rapid loss Of
heat.
If the temperature of the SLY.

heat to be lost this way, more i'm.
pulses come through from the cen.

glands are stimulated to activity.
Then heat is lost by evaporation.
| Spring fever is caused by the
body's changing over from a win,

time for your body to make this
adjustment.
Change your diet to lighter
foods, change to lighter clothing
and take it easier. If you do these
things, it won't be long before the
switch-over is complete.

Protection To Greenfield

The drowning of thirteen-year-old
Jackie Brinson in Greenfield lake, aside
from the heartache it caused Whining
tonians and the anguish in the family
household, indicates the city's lack of
adequate protection for persons who
use the lake either for bathing or
boating. AS the season for both is at
hand this protection should be pro-
vided without delay, lest other TRACE
dies occur.
For such accidents as cost Jackie
his life there should be speed boat.
1t should be perpetually ready to get
under way. There should be COM
petent person always on hand to op-
crate it and capable of giving first
aid.
Also, the city should have an ambu-
lance equipped with a pulmotor. It
might be kept at police or fire head
quarters for emergency runs. This has
been before the council and the public
before, but nothing has been done TO
provide it.
Furthermore there should be lake
patrol and life guards throughout the
summer which in this case starts now
and lasts into October.
The city would have to pay for both
equipment and employees, but whatever
the cost it would be infinitely less thar
