FACING THE COAL STRIKE.
The strike of the soft coal miners now ap
pears to be inevitable. Steps taken by the gov
ernment, so far announced, include a revival of
the fuel control under the railroad adminis
tration, which will allocate fuel supply, and an
undivulged movement to be made by the secre
tary of war. This latter probably will amount
to no more than protection for such miners as
continue at work.
Secretary Lane gives the comforting assur
ance that between 150,000,000 and 200,000,000
tons of bituminous coal is produced by non
union labor, and that this will be sufficient to
meet railroad, domestic and public utility re
quirements, leaving the industries of the coun
try to be supplied from other sources. Dr. Gar
field thinks that by careful apportionment of
the fuel on hand or to be produced business
may be kept moving.
This is reassuring, but jt does not alter the
immorality of the course pursued by the soft
coal miners. Their leaders attempt to shift en
tire responsibility onto the operators, but even
when all the claims and assertions of the union
officials are admitted, there yet remains the
unalterable fact that two wrongs do not make
a right. No amount of injustice or oppression
I on part of the mine owners can justify a wrong
action on part of the miners. And this rule
works both ways.
Having selected a moment when whatever
inconvenience arising from a shortage of coal
would hit the country hardest, the miners ask
for sympathy because they say their employers
will not negotiate a new wage scale. The mine
owners set up that the existing agreement has
yet several "months to run. Here is a dispute
as to facts that might easily be adjusted, yet
neither appears to have gone to any great
length in trying to reach a settlement. Such
conferences as have been held have failed be
cause each side demanded the whole of its con
tention. The public, and this includes mine owners
and miners, is interested primarily in having a
steady Supply of fuel. A way should be found
to provide this. If the miners are determined
to, try the issue by process of striking, jiow is
is as good a time as any, for the sooner it is
settled the better it will be for all. If a group
of men, pursuing a selfish object, can upset the
life of the country we should know it and begin
to look for the remedy.

"New Apartment11 Fiends
England Restless Under Load.
Social unrest in England is not confined to
the working classes, nor are the political or
economic problems entirely those of Irish home
rule or the adjustment of wages. The United
Kingdom came out of the war with such a load
of debt, and with productive industries so gen
erally dislocated, that the way to recovery is
extremely difficult. Just now Lloyd George is
asking a vote of confidence on the budget,
which is to be taken after two full days of de
bate, when the premier and Bonar Law, gov
ernment leader in the house, will present the
government's side of the question.
Drastic remedies .are proposed for meeting
the situation. In lieu of the extremely heavy
taxes asked by the government, it has been sug
gested thaj a gejieral scaling of the debt be
made. Confiscation by the government of a
certain proportion of the capital of the king
dom is an easy, but not at all a popular way
of settling the question. The premier has pointed
out many times that the way back to pros
perity lies through steady, productive effort, a
revival of industry and the abandonment of ex
travagant ways of living. Nowhere has there
been a greater orgy of spending than in Eng
land since the armistice, and the effects of this
are felt by all. Naturally objection turns first
to the cost of keeping an army of 750,000 men
and the great navy in commission. A demand
is made "that these be reduVed to or below
former peace-time strength, but England can
not carry out its part of the obligations as
sumed at Paris unless it does maintain a con
siderable force.
Careful review of the situation justifies the
opinion that England's problem is very much
"the same as ours. The disturbance went deepen
there, because the strain was longer borne, but
order ,will come only when the people get
ready to go to work, and this will not be
changed by upsetting one government and put
ting in another.
It was estimated that this. month would find
New York short more than 60,000 living apart

the annual moving which takes place in that

Yet, others are known as new apartment

Hazard of Modern Industry.
Accompanying the announcement of steps
being taken to meet the emergency arising from
the impending strike of coal miners, is an ac
count of hdw twenty-one were abandoned to
their fate in a blazing mine where the flames
drove back the rescuers. This will excite sym
pathy, and the mind will dwell apprehensively
on the dangers of coal mining, from which the
average mortal instinctively shrinks. Work
underground is extra hazardous, and long has
been so recognized, the fact figuring as an ele
ment in the wage scale. But the coal miners
are not the only ones who risk their lives in
industry. The annual toll taken in the United
States by industrial accident exceeds the battle
loss of the A. E. F. in the world war. It is not
especially creditable that this should be so, but
it is true that every effort is being made to re
duce the number of accidents, and that consid
erable progress has been made. Machinery can
not be made absolutely safe nor entirely "fool
proof," while human fallibility must always' be
reckoned with. In spite of the best effort to
secure the universal application of the rule of
safety first, loss of life or limb emphasizes the
fact that modern industry projects even into
peace time have quite as much risk as most of
us care to face.
The "Backyard" Aairplane.
Invention of a reversible propeller for air
planes is heralded as a great step ahead in
making the flying machine available for general
public use. At present one of its disadvantages
is that much clear space is required for landing
or starting.' If the machine is to become suc
cessor to the automobile, it must have some
thing of the motor car's flexibility and adapta
bility. Starting and stopping on restricted area
is a prime requisite. But the new invention is
said to permit stopping within fifty feet of dis
tance. Should it be possible to "take off" in a
similarly reasonable amount of room, the "back
yard" airplane may be in reach. Machines are
now made with so limited a spread of wings
that they may bt landed or started from a coun
try lane. Maybe the visions portrayed by car
toonists and others who like to poke fun at peo
ple will be brought o pass, and we will soon see
the heavens filled with fleets of flying machines,
darting hither and thither as their drivers fancy.
It will be a welcome day for the man who
travels afoot.
Universal Training
From the St Louis Globe-Democrat
In any summary given of the legislation pro
posed by the leaders in the National Guard
movement to have a national military system
adopted, the basing of the purposed universal
training upon the public schools seems to be
intended. The Boy Scouts are spoken of and
then the high school, with the statement that
after the high school period the boys should
be given a short term of intensive military in
struction and then dismissed into the body of
the people, subject to call for service in much
the same way our national army was raised. In
this way we should have no standing army ex
cept a volunteer one of whatever size congress
might determine, and the National Guard, sub
ject to call to federal service at the will of the
president, also of whatever size both congress
and the willingness of the young men of the
country to enlist in its ranks might determine.
We may add that the latter factor will always
serve to keep a volunteer regular army or Na
tional Guard from becoming too large.
Basing universal training, or any element of
it save that of educating officers, upon the pub
lic schools is a delusion.. It is an established
fact that less than 10 per cent of the youth of
the country graduate from high school. The
remaining 90 per cent must be given the mili
tary training also if it is to be general in char
acter. They need the disciplinary and educa
tional value of it more than do the high school
boys. It is the disciplinary value of universal
training andUhe physical benefits the youth of
the country would receive, which is its strong
est argument. This benefit and value would
serve the country better if given to those boys
who by reason of the necessity for earning a
livelihood are-compelled to leave school at or
before the completion of the grammar grade,
and who as a consequence are deprived of the
discipline of school life and the physical bene
fit of athletics. Universal training in this sense
appeals to the American people, but not uni
versal militarism, and it is evident it cannot
be based upon the high schools nor upon the
grammar grades except in the form of physi
cal culture, of which the grades have now en
tirely too little.
War Philosophy in Peace Time
Why are there now so many murders,' riots
and other acts of violence showing a startling
loss of social control as compared with the
period during the war and that before the war?
The increase in violence surely does not mean
that human depravity is running deeper or that
"the world is growing worse."
The American people have just come out of
a great war, a vast conflict of physical forces
grappling to the death. During an extended
period human life was cheaper than it ever was
before in recent centuries. "Treat 'm rough!"
and "Go get 'em!" were admired slogans. The
heroic figure was 'the man. the woman or the
child who showed contempt for death and
stoical indifference to pain and other forms of
suffering. Millions of the swarming peoples of
the earth were taught that killing the enemy
was a sacred duty, while sacrifice of self, if
necessary, was also a sacred duty. Contempt
for death if it came to oneself and exultation
over the death of one's enemies in large num
bers this was the lesson. The old standards
as to the sacredness of human life were broken
down.
It was after the American Civil war that the
James brothers and other outlaws committed
train and bank robberies and armed bands were
formed in many places to spread terrorism and
to profit by threats and violence. The phi
losophy that the individual should personally
cultivate extreme contempt for death to him
self and should be honored for his prowess in
bringing death to the enemy brings some
startling results. A nation caunot wage efficient
var unless it tells its youth to go over the top
and kill. Out of millions of youths thus in
structed, a small percentage retains and applies
affer the war these lessons of violence.
The accepted war slogans, with their im
plications of violence and disregard for human
life, clearly are of little service when the fight
ing is over. Chicago Daily News.

EVERETT BUCKINGHAM.
The Spaniards do not use the bull for
weinerwurst or steak until he gives them all
the sport one simple bull can make; they do
not value him so much as source of soup and
beef, but rather as the means of much emo
tional relief; but here in dear America the fact
is widely known, we do not like to see him
stabbed, but love to hear him thrown. -
In such endeavors, master skill and more
than master luck is credited by many to per
formances by Buck. He manages the stock
yards, where the fated quadruped give- up his
short and simple life that others may be fed;
while, so the dieticians state, we shorten our
careers by eating of the late lamented lambs
and shoats and steers.
The legislature often seeks to teach him
novel tricks, and manfully he struggles with
the legislative hicks, who think if they can pail
a cow in manner smooth and wise, that they
can tackle other jobs less fitted to their size.
But after they have rioted a bright and breezy
spell, Buck gets them all tamed down again
and shut in the corral.
He feeds the hungry delegates who come to
see the sights. In all illuminations he's among
the leading lights. He heads the table of the
Knights we know as Ak-Sar-Ben distinction
which would swell the heads of many lesser
men. Some men arrive by skill and speed and
some by tact or luck, and some by throwing
printers' ink or what is thrown by Buck.

In Matter of Strike.
Columbus, Neb., Oct 29. To the
Editor of The Bee: Everybody
would like to see the threatened coal
strike averted and it seems that the
blame rests on the strikers, who
of you that are blaming the strikers
would work for $75 per month? -
I Just read an editorial today that
stated, in spite of the present unrest
throughout the country, big busi
ness was going strong according to
the latest Wall street reports. When
business of any kind begins to lose
profit, rates and prices are ad
vanceed, and there you are.
This boost in prices practiced by
business has become such a- com
mon custom that any man who takes
advantage of the means is called a
shrewd business man. Now comes
labor, sits down and reflects, finds
his books show no profit at the end
of the month, and decides to strike
for higher wages.' One is called
good business and the other bol
shevism. We find that in the business world
are men who demand and get their
pay in advance without giving a
guarantee that they will deliver the
goods. Business has always fixed
its own profits, why can not labor
do the same? We have bullded a
civilization whose foundation is
profit. Why not let labbor in on
the ground floor where it may gaze
upon a gilded stage. and watch the
magnificent stunts of profiteering
acrobats? There would be a full
hoiute and a full house would make
a fine hand for Uncle Sam to call
the bet of all other competitors.
JESSE S. KINDER.
Misses His "Liberty."
Omaha, Oct. 28. To the Editor
of The Bee: As one of the many
who have served overseas and have
participated in the three major oper
tions in France, I take the liberty of
expressing my opinion on the utter
selfishness and disregard of the
American soldier in France In re
gard to political questions.
Nation-wide prohibition was voted
and ratified by states with a total
disregard of the some 2,000,000
Americans who were in the trenches
sacrificing their all that this nation
might triumph, but were absolutely
denied a voice in these drastic meas
ures. If that is democracy, then
give the president a crown of
thorns.
There Is little wonder there Is po
litical and industrial unrest in this
country. It is surprising to me that
there is not something far more
worse. When a willful few can take
the personal liberties from those
who have carried the nation's flag
to victory through the most strenu
ous and trying times in history, then
I say it is time to migrate to some
foreign shore, which is exactly what
thousands of returned veterans are
doing.
ONE WHO SERVED IN VAIN.
Reaching the Prollteer.
Tryon, Neb., Oct. 27. To the Edi
tor of The Bee: If you tan allow
me the space in the Letter Box
would like to let off some steam in
regard to high cost of living.
I have read, page after page, ar
ticle after article, and all kinds of
remedies, from preacher to layman,
and from statesman to the chore
boy, hut none from the farmer. So
here goes.
Let the federal and state govern
ments enact a law making it com
pulsory that every article or com
modity for exchange or barter be
branded with the. price that It cost,
each and every man handling such
article, and make it a penitentiary
offense for not doing so or for put
ting on a different price.
For instance, if a profiteer bought
a bushel of potatoes for $1 and
tried to hold the consumer up for
$5 for the bushel, he and his bushel
of spuds would last about as long
as a snow ball in hades.
Our law-making bodies can give
the public relief, but for different
reasons won't. One reason I will
mention is they want a hand in the
profiteering.

Printing on a "Round Press."

For the painting of simple place
cards and the making of shades in
various hued crepe paper petals she
charged 10 cents apiece. The hos- i
tess furnished the materia! and the i
idea or certain color scheme she
wished carried out.
But Helen herself was constantly
on the alert for new ideas in favors

became known as a person whose
opinion it was well worth consult-
Liwg before giving a dinner, luncheon
or tea. Helen found ideas through
reading the magazines her mother
took each month, getting books on
similar subjects at the library and
visiting the art departments, jn the
stores.
On her 14th birthday Helen had
started by sending little notes to
members of her mother's sewing
club saying that she could paint
place-cards and enclosing a sample
of her work. This small beginning
led to the adding of shades, favors,
etc., until today, Helen at 17 and a ;
senior in high school, has a substan- j
tial weekly income and two girl
friends to help fill her orders.
