that the [Muter at Ealing shouted
“Healing" and the porter at Hammer
smith “Animersmith," and that the
first thing he did on reaching Ids of

two men should change places forth

In order to prevent th e endless
recurrence of such crises as the one
from which the country is now
em erging President H arding has
appointed a commission, in accord
ance with recom m endations of Mr.
Hoover and a bill by Senator Borah,
to get coal facts and work out a
perm anent solution.
Mr. Hoover, whose profession is
mining, believes th a t better condi
tions for m iners and lower prices
for the public can both be achieved
by abolition of in term itten t employ
ment.
The contrast between prices d u r
ing th is year of scant production,
when coal a t the mine has reached
less th an half the price level of
1920, a year of no shortage, shows
th a t it pays for agencies represent
ing the public to concern -.hem-
selves w ith the cost ot aecessities.
