Urge Coal Ushers
To Order Early

WASHINGTON R)-T'he gov
ernment today urged coal users to
make purchases as soon as possible
this year to ease potential spot
coal shortages" this winter.
The shortages may develop, the
Defense Solid Fuels Administra-
ton said in a statement, if iron ore
shipments are diverted to the rail-
roads in an effort to catch up with
demand. Ore shipments-normally
made by ship on the Great Lakes
were slowed during the steel,
strike.
Administrator Charles w. Con-
nor said the diversion would take
open top cars normally used for
coal shipments, leading to a pos
sible shortage during peak winter
months.
He made no mention of the fact
that John L. Lewis has notified the
soft coal industry that the contract
of the United Mine Workers will
end Sept. %.

TUCSON, Ariz. - The Seri In
dians, one of the most primitive
people on the North American
continent, have tried some of the
ways of the white man, and found
them wanting.
After holding out against white
influences for centuries, they

Now they can no longer earn
the money to buy the things upon

What Do You Know About the
Constitution?
That's a fair question now that
the Constitution has been making
headlines once more. Questions
and answers following are based
on Your Rugged Constitution by
Bruce Allyn F'indley and Esther
Blair Findlay, Los Angeles edu-
Gators, and published by Stanford
University Press. The volume,
written as an eighth grade text
book, is being distributed by large
and small business concerns to
their employees throughout the ma

/. Why was the writing of the
Constitution of the United States

The Articles of Confederation

5. What is the relation of the

It is designed to avoid disputes
over the number of representa-

each census how many Representa-

6. Why is the requirement for
the election of two senators from

Outlook Promising
On Synthetic Fuel

WASHINGTON R-Secretary
of the Interior Chapman said today
the outlook for profitable produc-
ton of synthetic liquid fuels is SO
promising private industry should
begin building experimental plants.
He also emphasized the import
ance of synthetic fuels for national
defense, and said their production
should be developed as soon as
possible.
Chapman, in a report to Con-
gress, repeated a previous recon.
mendation that private industry,
with government assistance, con-
struct pioneer commercial plants
to produce synthetic liquid fuels
from both oil shale and coal.
He said, for example, the Bureau
of Mines figured gasoline could be
made from oil at cost of from IL
to II cents a gallon. The National
Petroleum Council, however, ear
lier this week estimated the cost
at Ala cents a gallon.
Chapman, in his report, said al
though private industry had been
urged before to get into this field,
no definite acceptance had been
received by his department. He
said one group came in and talked
over the possibility of coal hy-
drogenation plant, but made no
specific proposal.

The World Today

WASHINGTON (P,-This is the
year when the middle of the road
seems cozy. The politicians indi-
Gated they thought so when they
picked Gen. Eisenhower and Gov
Stevenson.
Both are middle-of-the-roaders.
The general is little to the right
of the governor. Stevenson, appar-
entity, is a little to the right of
President Truman. Neither man is
an apostle of change, socially or
economically. Although both are
internationalists, that's usual now,
not radical.
If there had been wide public
pressure to move left or far right,
the convention politicians undoubt-
edly would have responded by pro-
ducing the kind of candidate want
ed. No matter how boss-ridden, a
political party which wants to stay
in business must be a kind of ther-
mometer measuring the public
mood.
The people have shown that in
time of crisis, when great RENE
dies are needed for survival, they
not only will accept but seek
changes, even severe ones. This
was demonstrated in 1882 when
they elected Franklin d. Roose-
velt who was eager to experiment,
instead Of Herbert Hoover, who
didn't want to rock the boat even
when it was sinking. In choosing
Hoover that year the Republicans
either nlisread their thermometer
or ignored it.
Although they elected Roosevelt
three times more, it was in 1882
that the voters made it most clear
they'd go for change when they
thought it necessary.
Roosevelt's four victories were
in abnormal times. BY 1948, when
he was dead, the picture had
changed. We were still in serious
trouble abroad, thanks to the Rus

slams according to the Democrats
or to Democratic bungling accord
ing to the Republicans. But war
was not imminent.
AnG at home the people were
more prosperous, in spite of in
flation, than any time since the
1920s. People with full bellies
don't run through the streets,
screaming for revolution, even a
mild one SO in 1948, with the ma
ton more normal than it had been
in 20 years, there was no wide
pressure for far-reaching social or
economic groups.
In that fairly normal year the
Democrats and President Truman,
although he had offered his Fair
Deal as a continuation of the New
Deal which had been interrupted
by the war, barely squeaked
through.
This election year is much like
194S with some notable new excep-
tions: higher taxes, corruption in
government, and the distressing
and unfinished Korean War. Other
wise, incomes and employment are
at a peak. Our foreign relations
are serious but war still does not
seem imminent.
The arguments this year be-
tween the parties and the candi-
dates will be over government ex-
penses and corruption, the handl-
ing of foreign policy, and other
issues which the politicians will
have no trouble dredging up.
But the voters, not in peril now,
will not have to choose between a
stand-patter and a man with a
gleam in his eye and key to the
promised land.

News censoring

Newspaper Association moved to-

Ohio editors and publishers to SUBJ
NIT facts of suppression and con-
cealment of information to the

The committee also plans study

what acess is permitted to govern
