11100 CHALLENGED
TO PROVE CHARGE OF
SHOCKING PROFITS
Washlntogn, Nov. 26. Coal opera
tor! have sent a telegram to William
O. McAdoo, challenging him to pro
Ouce the figures upon which he based
his charge that operators have been
making "shocking profits" and could
Afford to grant miners' wage increases.
"If you have not these current facts
and figures your mere personal opiiv
Ion has no weight," McAdoo was told.
"If you have current facts and fig
ure to substantiate your conviction
and doubts, you will make a good wit
ness for the miners before a board of
arbitration or a tribunal on investiga
tion which thus far they have firmly
failed to agree to."
McAdoo's telegram, Bent yesterday
to Fuel Administrator Garfield, charg
ed that profits in the coal Industry m
1817 ranged from fifteen to two thou
sand per cent, according to income
tax returns.
The operators said McAdoo's "mis
leading statements and insinuations
are the kind of stuff which bolshevism
breeds upon and accused him of "bad
taste" in issuing his statement while
negotiations were on.
"You suggest a careful examination
of Income tax returns before an addi
tional price of coal is allowed,' the
operators' message read. "This would
he included in the investigation which
the mine owners agreed to more than
a month ago and have been urging
ever since, but thus far the mine
workers have been unwilling to agree
to arbitration or investigation. Either
procedure will disclose not only the
current tax returns of the mine own
ers, but of the miners as well. The
figures are here In Washington and
can be readily produced if you can
Ket ihe mine workers to agree. The
MtuSilnouH coal operators will wel
come the publication of just as full
current tax return for the bituminous
coal industry as are published for any
other industry."

Hot biscuits, buckwheats, rich cake
and many other tempting foods are
declared to be wholesome, digestible
and nourishing under normal stom
ach conditions .
Many people, however, once got the
notion they couldn't eat such things
and have grown In prejudice as a
consequence. They have denied them
selves almost everything except milk
and water. -
But you will find here and there
one of this kind eating onions, cu
cumbers, melons and other such ter
rors of the dyspeptic because he has
found that by merely giving the
stomach a little assistance there are
no after effects from such indulgence.
There is avoidance of gassiness, no
sour risings, no-water brash, you dont
taste 'em hours after.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for
both those who starve, for fear of
suffering. They relieve the distress of
indigestion and they also serve to as
sist the stomach to prevent indiges

Eating should be one of our chief
enjoyments. It is really the most at
tractive of social gatherings, and it is
worth our wljile to realize that that
we may indulge freely by exercising
the precautionary measure of aiding
tne digestive process. Thus you may
cat your hot biscuits, buckwheats,
rich cake, onions, mince pie, sausage
and so on provided you take a Stu

The war proved the value of bread.
It was plenty of Bread that- helped make our boys "The Finest

There is no substitute for Bread. Other foods have their place,
