" Government and the Coal Mines.
One of the disagreeable fettures of the fuet
; situation it now coming to the front A itrflce
on April 1 did not hold much of a menace, at a
; large aurplut of fuel was on hand, and the sea-
ton was approaching when comumption would
; be at t minimum. Today condition are much
different. No progress hat been made in the
'; direction of a tettlement of differences between
. the operatort and the men, with a resumption of
'work. So far at the employert and employe are
'concerned, the strike might go on to the crack
, ,of doom, but the public has tome interett in the
iituation. ", t . . . . '
June, July and August are the time for stor
,ing fuel for winter use. The northwest territory
; j especially depends upon fuel produced during the
v summer and delivered before winter opens. Delay
; jin this mean hardship to the users. This phase
;of the case was presented to the senate on Thurs
day, along with argument in favor of govern
ment intervention,, even to the point of seizure
land operation of the mines by federal authority.
Such a course would be directly in line with the
: policy of the United Mine Worker of America,
' ; ; which organization' has persistently advocated
:; ' what it .euphemistically terms the "nationaltza-
tion" of all fuel supply.
I;.'' ' Public operation of the mines may well, be re
.ygarded as a procedure of doubtful value. Ex-'
C periments with the railroads did not turn out so
! well as might have been wished, and with all al---I
lowances made for the extreme conditions under
j which the job was takeen on, the experience was
not such as to greatly encourage the extension of
j the practice to other industries. But something
else might be done. Theodore Roosevelt had no
'authority of law to -interpose in the anthracite
i i coal strike the fedeeral power, yet he exerted '
n I such influence that tMl great struggle was speed-
"! ily and satisfactorily terminated. It appears that
f the time is almost here for President Harding to
take some similar action. ""; 5;
Efforts by ' Secretary - Davis and Secretary.
' ; Hoover have been unavailing) and advice from
r-j the president, has gone unheeded by both owners
j,'"; and men. A deadlock exists that is. to be broken
j; j by some one or there will be a fuel famine, before,
. -'.-long. ; -Reviving industry is demanding more
; ,' coal ; the domestic storage of coal for next win
, j ter will' soon begin, and the supply above ground
' is running short. Efforts to hold down prices are
! all well enough, but what , is needed is' the restora
. tion of work in the mines. "When coal is being
' ' brought to the surface again in sufficient quan
- tity to meet the demand, the public will cease to
. be uneasy over the situation, and not until then'.

' 1 : For Industrial Peace.
- In the midst of strikes and threats of strikes
; ' there ccjmes from one of union labor's principal
. ' leaders a note of sanity and common sense wor-
, thy of real applause. John Dentin, president of
; ' the buildin gtrades department of the Federation
; of Labor, tells his organization that "the whole
' ; nation is tired of strikes and lockouts and dis
!, t gusted with such institutions as make them pos
sible, and he adds:
' I ' Unless the Industry remedies its troubles, ,
we must admit the industrial court is neces- -
f - serv.
' The only way to minimize strikewand 1
., lockouts is to minimize such authority as
; can order a lockout or. strike.
"( ' Further, Mr. Donlin said that persons respon-
.i I sible for strikes in cities "aare always jn the
1 s minority1 and often include "hired disturbers."
1 There is a world of truth in these brief "re-
. marks, truth in the evident understanding of the
public's view and truth in the implied belief that
many strikes and lockouts are called not because
" "c this drastic action is the only way. to settle ex-
isting grievances, but because of unwise, impul-
'. sfve or corrupt Readership. . " v ' .-;
v ' Exposures in Chicago and in York of corrupt
and selfish bargaining between labor leaders and

the existing system for the handling of relations

1 Nebraska'! Parole System.'
The Fred Brown case I arousing public in
terest in the administration of the state parole
law as hi no other case (ince the Kirk parole
of 1919, and once more the whole system is being
judged, with adverse verdict in the popular mind,
became of it abuse.
Brown wa paroled while lerving time for
automobile dealing. The grievous error in hi
case wi that the parole authority' failed to dis
cover the fact that he was a hardened second of
fender, that under another name he had been
sentenced for murder and had been pardoned
fifteen years ago. Proper prison records and
thorough investigation by paroling' authorities
should have uncovered this fact before the parole
was granted, instead of after Brown had been at
large for several months, committing various
theft and finally terrorizing a whole community.
There i reason for the parole system. It is
hujnane; it fulfills the spirit of Christianity in
that it affords opportunity tor reform and as
sumes the possibility of the rebirth of men'
souls, even when hardened by crime. But this
fine ideal is shattered when the privilege is
abused. When devotion to principles' of hu
manitarian mercy result in endangering the lives
of men and women and children, then mankind is
certain to forego mercy for the more immediate
sake of self-preservation. The best service which
advocates of the parole system can give to their
ideal today is in making sure that it is enforced
with rigid certainty that the public, not the indi
vidual, be given the-benefit of every doubt
Muddling the Muscle Shoals . Matter.
Three reports to the house from its committee
on military affairs dealing with the Ford offer
to take over the Muscle Shoals project are not
calculated to clear the situation in the public
mind. Only one point is plain, and that has been
understood for some months. The plant is a
majestic monument to a considerable blunder
made by the War department under ihe Wilson
ian regime. '. Fixation of atmospheric nitrogen
might have been necessary as ajnilitary measure
and part of the general scheme for the public
defense. It was undertaken on so gigantic a
scale that when the war was over the plant was
incomplete, and some $80,000,000 had been tied
up in it for good and all. Considerable scandal
was brought to light in connection with the work
done, and it was . established that nowhere was
the extravagance and waste more noticeable than
in this instance. Now Mr. Ford has offered to
take over the whole affair, the government, to in
vest some $20,000,000 in completing the unfinished
work, and he to operate it for a long term of
years on terms that are not without their ad
vantage to him. Senator Norris has declared
his opposition to leasing the plant to Ford or to
anyone eke, andhas sought to have, the work
done by the government. All these things Sug
gest the thought that it will be some months
before the Muscle Shoals project is disposed of
and its machinery set to producing fertilizer or
anything else hut discord and dispute.

This sentence was passed by a judge of the
district court in Omaha on an alien who had
sought exemption from the draft because he was
an alien. He then declined to assume the re
sponsibilities laid upon citizens of the country,
and offered to those aliens resident here who were
willing to defend the institutions they enjoyed.
The sentence will be approved by all earnest men.
Another thought comes up in this connection.
This man will not be permitted to vote or to
exercise other rights of citizens, but he will be
permitted to remain in our midst, enjoying every
advantage the citizen enjoys under our laws. He
will live better than he could at home, will have
the protection of our laws and our courts, the
benefits of a strong, enlightened government, and

What Is S GaodJobT
from the MiaaMaia jtwraal.
' Ask the a vera a youth what ha considers
sood lob. and mora than llkaly he wilt reply,
one with good pajr and short hours. Tha may
be deeirable, but' the are not all ct s good
job. aa e little analynf will show.
, U a job ia what it should ha, it It educates
and llharataa a man phynlrally. mentally and
morally, is should carry othar valuaa than short
hours and good psy. Juat what theaa era Dr.
Richard C. Cabot has pointed out In diacuaaing
the meaning of work. Dr. Cabot numorataa
aven aaantial points of a good job under ths
following haads:
Difficulty and crudenass enough to call
out ona's latent powers ot msstery:
Variety so bslsnced by monotony as to
ult the Individual's needs;
A boss;
A chance to achieve and to recognise
what ona has dona;
A title and a place that is one's own;
A connection with soma Institution or
Arm, or some cause that one can loyally
sarva;
lionorabla and pleasant relations with
one's comrades In work.
It should be noted that "a chance to achieve"
penetrates to the very heart of work. The sav
age spends much energy In his war dance. An
imals in playful exercise obey a native and Ir
resistible impulse. But work is sn Intelligent
expenditure of energy, In which means are
adapted to ends. A good job offers enough re
sistance to challenge one's determination, with'
out overtaxing one's strencth. Only when It'
ooes tnis, is a vscstion most valuable and ap
preciated, because It brings welcome release.
The charge mont commonly made ' against
modern work is that of monotony. A good job
ought to supply enough variety to sustsln inter

liked, but most good jobs carry the standing
need of a. director. In this respect work is not
unlike team-play In athletics. Just ss a boat
crew In a race need a coxswain, so workers need
some msster.hand to plot the course snd corre
late the indivldusl efforts. .
Industrial experts sre coming also to "recog
nize the Importance of each worker having a
title and a place of his own. If to hold down a
job gives one a place in the world and a firmer
grip on life, then it is well that the fact be prop
erly aignalized. It is found that such recognition
does much- to dignify snd enrich a job and to
foster the. spirit of loyallty. With the rapid
growth of machine production this important
fact has been too largely forgotten and neglect
ed. Many modern lndustrisl movements gain
much of their significance because of their ef
forts to revive a closer personal relation In in

Child Labor In Rhode Island.
From tba Boaton Traucrlpt.
Material for the pen or the typewriter of
a 20th century Dickens is contained in a report
made by federal Investigators into the labor of
children In their homes in Rhode Island. It
presents a picture of greedy manufacturers and
unscrupulous contractors fattening on the pro
ceeds of the toll of baby fingers, for among the
children whese employment waa investigated
were some only 3 years of age.
The investigators were sent into the state by
the national department of labor after complaint
of conditions had been made by inspectors act
ing under the federal child labor law. It Is re
ported that, at the time of the inquiry, more
than S.Q0O children under 15 years of age
living in Providence, Pawtucket, and Central
Falls were working in their homes evening
and during school vacationa in ways that vio
late the spirit if not the letter of the law of
the state. Seventy per cent of the fathers of
the children are foreign-born. Of the 5,000
cases studied 2,338 were reported to be those of
children who worked regularly. Of these 39
were less than 5 years old. . Fifty-six were
between 5 and 8 years. More than 60 per
cent of ' the young toilers earned less than 5
cents -an hour. The work was often done in
surroundings that were a menace to health.
In particular, the eyesight of the children was
endangered. The work at home was found to
be seriously interfering with the nnurcmi nf
those ot the children old enough to go to school. '
is a system or contract labor. Manufac
turers of Jewelry and other small articles turn
their products over to middlemen who exploit
the children, and who, in some cases, are al
leged to make 100 per cent on. the labor of their
young workers.
. Shrubbery and Trees.
From the Kansas City Star. .
1 It is only comparatively recently in America
that we have discovered shrubbery and how to
use it. Not many years ago people used to
deal in individual shrubs.' One shrub on each
side of the gate was thought plenty. Occasion
ally, a. little clump was set out In the middle of
the lawn.
- But when home makers beean to exnerimpnt
with masses of shrubs, when they began to frame
meir nouses in iorsytnia ana wlgelia and splrea
and rambler roses and honeysuckle, they found
they had made a transformation. The whole
appearance of the place was chansed. A house
that otherwise might be commonplace, in a prop
er Beiimg oi ioiiage ano mossoms proved wholly
charming and lovely.
V Necessarily with the shrubbery came trees,
both in the parking outside and within the yard.
Trees for a background, for protection from the
sun in summer, and for the delicate tracery of
branches in winter, for the wonderful play of
lights and shadows trees there must be.
, x Kansas City has plenty of object lessons in
the effect of massed shrubbery and trees, go
has every smaller town of age and dignity.- It
would pay any person interested in the appear
ance of his home to. wander tomorttjw through
the residence districts where shrubbery snd trees
are growing in profusion, Just to contrast them
with districts where foliage has been neglected.
It is wonderful how defects in architecture
can be made to disappear by the proper hand
ling of the masses of green Nature has put at
man's disposal. .
How Does, Henry Ford Do. It?
From the New Republic.
Somehow or other the union has omitted to
call on strike Henry Ford's miners in Kentucky.
When Ford bought the Banner Fork mines the
local union went into a flurry; did the new man
agement mean a fight? And then a visit took
place; it was the- new manager who called on
the union. Did the men have. an v erie.va.nces?
They had; among others, that there was no
place for the union to meet, except in the school
house which the company owned. "Meet in the
schoolhouse," said the new management; "next'
grievance?" Later, wage-cutting began in the
Kentucky coal fields; at Banner Fork there
was another visit. Mr. Ford came and crawled
around in the dark and bumped his head on his
coal and at the day's end he made the men a
speech at the mine mouth. About wages. He
said their wages needed readjustment. Coal
digging, seemed to him to be harder, messier,
more dangerous than the jobs in his auto fac
tory; his- miners' wages, he -thought, ought to
be a little more than his factory, rates. Readjustments-
followed; upwards. , "Banner Fork
mines pay $3 more on the day than any other
mines in this district," writes President Keller
of United Mine Workers District 19, "and Ford
sells his coal for 60c less on the ton." And

He'll Get Over Jaundice. -Miss
R. C. writes: "1. What is the
cause ot yellow jaundice?"
"2. Is there any permanent cure
for it?
"My fiance, who is 25, has had this
for the last three weeks. We are to
be married within the next two
months, so kindly advise me through
your column if it is anything dan
gerous, and what could be done to
cure it. '
REPLY. .
1. There are several kinds - ot
Jaundice, and the causes vary. One
kind, quite prevalent now, is sup
posed to be caused by a spiral or
ganism which inhabits the bodies ot
rats. The proof is not conclusive.
2. Cases of this disease in America
always get well. Not so in Japan.

Around the World In Five Days.
From the St. Lonia Pot-DIptch. ,
Eix special speed planes are to be constructed
for the speed test by the United States Army
Air Service at the international race to be held at
Detroit on September 15, the Pulitzer trophy to
be the prise.
A guaranteed speed of 200 miles an hour is
specified for the planes. If a machine with this
speed could be constructed with a fuel capacity
to keep the air for five days, and this machine
should start to circumnavigate the globe, going
directly east, or vice-versa, we should witness
the feat of going around the world in 120 hours,
or ftv days of 24 hours each. That something
of the sort will be accomplished within the life
of this generation la highly probable.

reading, I'm sure there ar ample
publications to select from. Why
not subscribe to your own church
psper? All churches havs these
publications, snd a few dollar spent
in this msnner would certainly bs
of greater value than wasting time
and gasoline in running round the
streets In sn automobile. A far ss
Sunday sports are concerned, I ran
see no harm in them at all, except
they are carried to extreme. There
is more recreation in seeing or
playing a good game than trying to
kill time some other wsy. A good
laugh is a "Sunday" recreation. I
therefore am in favor of amuse
ments that wilt create a happiness
that is seldom found in the churches
of today. The majority of us are
worldly because the churches sr
choking us with a lot of worldly
sermona If these preachers would
preach sermons to save souls we
would probsbly be more ' interested
in spiritual things than in vArldly
things, but as long as these minis
ters preach the Old Testament,
"Thou shalt not," Instead of the
New Testament, "Thou shalt" I
can see no hop of making ua more
spiritual. Rundar is a dsy of re.
hueing. W commemorate the
raaurreetlon of iha Lord every
week. The Jew' ebbsth waa a day
of abatlnenca. When tha young
lawyer aaked what ha should do to
ba saved, the Lord never mentioned
"Remember tha Sabbath day to
keep It holy," but only the laat els
commandment. Ha substituted the
firat four commandments with "Thou
shall love ths Lord Thy Clod with
the whele' of thy being" The Neer
Teetsment land that ia what Chris
tiana depend upon) never mention
that we are to keep ir.e tiebbath,
but we do read that Bl. John, tha
divine, waa In the spirit on Ilia
Lord day. Do your duty to Cod
nrat, man nest and yourself last.
Then you will ba free to go and see
port or go lo tha rnoviea on the
Lords day. FRANK CROCKER,
