Maybe there was. Did stories in eastern and other anti-administra- tion papers, hinting that we were right on the way to raising the draft age and inferring broadly that labor conscription and military ‘‘strike-breaking were the objects aimed at, leave a false impression? Did they unwittingly, or~ otherwise, set tongues wagging all over the country in the interests of Ger- man propagandists, whose main purpose these days is to create distrust of their government in the minds of democracy’s workers? Maybe‘they did. But today that is all water that has passed over the wheel. Secretary Baker has ‘‘some clean’’ again on'the labor issue. Substantially, this is what Baker says: Inno case will the draft law be used as a whip ov@r the Amer- ican: workingmansiite -hasassured:the country’ that: there will be no military strike-breaking, by stating. that ‘the’ man; who conscientiously protests. against inadequate: pay, impossible living and working con- ditjns,, or high-handed attempts at: exploitation by an emiplayer ‘will not‘ be: regarded: as; as ‘‘idler’’: by the War ‘Department. ; He has ‘pointed out that the sole and only purpose: of the new ruling is to bring presgure to bear on the ton-egsential worker=the ribbon ‘clerk, the barkeeper, the’ chauffeur or: butler to: the rich—to ‘change his occupation. ' Everybody who has watched Baker’s performance in office knew that this was the ease anyway. They. knew that he was fair. It ig@ good enough pointer why ‘gme i f est} im shipigmiding. isted thatzarmy: for- n getting ovo for }, should be: compen- sated by timber owners at best prevailing rates of pay. But they are glad to have the statement at that. It shuts up the slackers. The fact is that there has been a band of labor conscription rooters of which the people have been mighty distrustful, very much in evidence ever since the war began. The Washington Bureau has reported time and again that this fallacy is the burden of the talk in hotel lobbies at the capital among would-be-profiteers and professional laoor- baiters trying to horn in on government jobs. And it is idle to think that pro-Germans, pacifists and obstructionists in general—not forgetting the politi- eal seekers who are avowedly out to get the pres- ident’s goat—have not grabbed on to it . It has been made to order for them. : Secretary Baker comes right out in meeting and tells all these fellows where they get off! THE MEAT THEY EAT. Meat packers are charged by the Federal Trade Commission with having sold and offered for sale for use in the U. S. army food ‘‘unfit for human consumption.” The two concerns named are Wilson & Co., and Morris & Co: The commission is without power to punish the packers if they are found guilty, and the food administration can do little more. But the fact that the packers may escape with little or, no punishment, measured in terms of fines and imprisonment, is of small importance to~the American public right now. American meat barons are ‘‘digging their own grave’’ by such practices. Nothing else they can do will so surely hasten, gov- ernment ownership and operation of the meat in- dustry. A long suffering public can and will put up with packers’ excessive profits; it will stand being gouged in prices, and has permitted the beef barons to strangle the cattle raising industry, but it will not permit them to sell or try to sell rotten meat to our sons fighting for the liberty of the world, the honor of America, and the safety of all of us—INCLUD- ING THOSE WHO WOULD POISON THEM WITH UNFIT FOOD! If you would save your own bacon, Mr. Meat Packer, and keep your packing plants in your own hands, we suggest that it is much safer for you to feed your rotten meat to your family than to sell it to the American government for our soldiers and sailors. There is, however, in this meat expose, one bright and clean ‘spot. It is the promptness and dispatch with which the government inspectors threw out the rotten meat as soon as they uncovered its condition. No. amount of ‘‘influenee’’ could get that meat pass- INE AE ATE Sp RON trail of the concerns responsible and stuck until the public was informed. Remember the ‘‘embalmed beef scandals’’ of the Spanish-American war? Remember how old Captain Baer was arrested in Washington for trying to per- suade Secretary of War Alger to stop the sale of unfit meat and how the “‘lid’’ was held down tight until the packers had sold all their poisonous meat despite the fact that hundreds of our soldiers died and thousands more were made ill? Thank God that no such ‘‘lid’’ ean be kept in place in this ‘war! Not only will there be no ‘‘con- cealing lid’’ but everything points to rigid inspec- tion and honest. rejection of rotten food. That means much to fathers and mothers of boys in train- ing and those who are fighting.in the trenches in France. It means much to those sons of ours, To many of them it means life and health. It means less profit to the packers. And, it may mean that Uncle Sam shall have to take over the packing plants. Even as you would oversubscribe for Liberty Bonds and Red Cress underscribe for meat at your butchers’ and wheat at your grocers’.

No more important convention—potenitally, at least—was ever held in Chicago than that of the In- ternational Railway Fuel association, now in session. It is discussing the mining, the hauling, the dis- tribution, and the conservation of coal. It is held under the joint auspices of the United States rail- road and fuel administrations. On the surface it seems to offer no matter of thrilling popular interest. Actually there ig mo subject of more immediate, vital, and personal im- portance to every American citizen. Last winter the whole country, Chicago with the rest, got a taste of what a fuel famine means. It is doubtful if the average citizen realizes by what narrow margin an actual and dreadful calamity was averted. . “There wens iter “when there not four hours’ fuel in this, city between freezing people to death and keeping them. warm,’? ‘The spéaker is ‘R. H.. Aishton, regional director for.the United: States railroad .administration and former president of: the Chicagoand Northwestern company. Mr. Aishton is:not’an alarmist.. As di- rector of all the great coal shipping railroads of the middle, west he. 3x ‘in ‘a. position to know. the facts...” ape ase as ! Unless thé coal operators. and miners, the rail- roads, the dealers, and the consumers cooperate fully, unless every possible agency concerned with coal exerts itself to the utmost during the next five ‘months, te’; artialtfuel famine last*-winter:, will become acutggangi devastating next. winte : “Unless ‘ott..is«anade,’’ saya.Mr:, Aishton, “‘the situation is going to be much worse next win- ter than it: was last winter, worse than’ anything ever known in the United States.” All the authorities agree in sounding’ this note of warning. Unless coal bins are filled now, unless vast supplies of coal are stored this summer, noth- ing can be more certain than that industry will be idle next winter and that people will freeze. If the coal miners worked full time during the next six months there would be no trouble. There is coal enough in the ground to supply a hundred times all possible demands», The: trouble is that miners have not worked more,.than three-fourths, of the time in any single wéek since the first of the year. At any rate the production of coal has varied from only 62 per cent to barély 76 per cent of full time capacity. In other words, the coal mines of the country have not worked more than four and one-half days in any week since Jan. 1. That is not the fault of the miners, “Coal cannot be practically dug)unless there are empty coal cars ready to receive it as it comes from. the breaker. And the coal mines have been shut down for from one-ninth to one-fourth of the time each week be- cause the United States railroad administration has failed to furnish these empty cars. If the railroad administration will furnish a larger supply of empty coal cars to the mines it will do more than‘any other possible agency to avert a fuel famine next winter. When coal cars are missing the mines are shut down, the miners are laid off. To miss one or two days’ pay per week is a serious matter to almost all of the 700,000 coal miners. Many of them seek regular employment—which is plentiful—in other industries. That has resulted in a labor shortage, which in one district has resulted in cutting down coal production by 25 per cent. ° All the coal available for us next winter in Illin- ois—outside a small allotment of anthracite—comes from the Illinois and ‘Indiana fields. And in these particular fields the production is even smaller than in the country as a whole. In other words, the fuel situation is worse locally than almost anywhere else. There is just one thing that the individual con- sumer can do to improve it. He should instantly order all the coal that he expects to need next winter. He should ask that it be'delivered at once. He should accept coal from central and northern Illinois and he should pay the price demanded. If impure coal is delivered, if an excess price is ex- acted, he will be protected by the state fuel admin- isration from loss. TVs ed when once its stench reached their nostrils. And| The first necesstty is for instant activity —Chicago governmental agencies immediately got upon the|Tribune. NATIONAL SECRETARY OF TREASURE AND TRINKET FUND EXPRESSES HER Frederica Winfield secretary . of the treasure and trinket fund, today wrote from ‘New York thanking the Bismarck Federation of Women’s clubs and the Campfire Girls, who had charge of a successful campaign in the capital city, for their generous contribution. “Please be assured that this fine spirit of. cooperation you have evi- denced is a very great inspiration to use during these trying days,” writes Miss Winfield. “You are quit> right —people really want to sacrifice, it given the opportunity—you have prov- en this in your section, have you not? We would’ like to thank personally the young teacher who gave,us the gold chain and the small boy and his alster who -gave us their contribu- tion.

Marine preferred was the only seriking ex: ception, to the reactionary trend,! soon rebounding six points from its ini- tial loss of 1-2: Fractional recoveries were recorded; before the end of the first half hour: but the undertone con- tinued heavy. Liberty bonds continu- ed: to decline, the first 3 at 93.96/ aécond 4’s at 93.76 @ 4 1-4’s at 96.72, all recording naw minimums, Trading in stocks today was wholly influenced bythe tension in the war situation. “Marine. preferred was the sensational feature opening at a de- cline of 1-2 points but immediately. rallied six points, only to forfeit vir- tually all of its gains at the end. Stan- dard rails and a few equipments ful- ly “regained their losses’ on’ the’ short coverings of the final dealings. The serosne” Was Irrégular’*’Sale approxi- mated 300,000 shares.

Al- ‘though’ the acreage of corn was ex- ected to prove smaller than last year winidns prevailed that the total would big: enough: to assura;, al liberal yield. Prospects for bumper crops of all other cereals gave additional im- petus to the fall in prices, and so too did nervousness which arose concern- ing new government regulations as to hedging sales. Oats were dominated by the action of corn. Besides, the Wheat Export Company was entirely out of the mar- ket for export grain. Pork and ribs gave way with corn and hogs. Lard was steadier owing to ‘government purchases for Great Britain. ks DEVELOPS STRENGTH, Chicago, Iil., June 1.—Corn develop- ed considerable strength today after an initial downturn. Delivery of a small amount on contracts was a bear- ish factor at the outset, but offerings were light, and it took only a limited aggregate of buying to lift the mar- ket. The general tone was nervous. Opening prices, which varied from un- changed figures to quarter cent lower, with June not quoted and July 132 1-2 to 132 7-8 were followed by a little further sag, and then an advance to well above yesterday's finish. Gossip that exporters were bidding for oats led to a rally in prices for that cereal. The Wheat Export Com- pany, however, denied that it was in the market. After opening quarter cent to 7-8 down, ith. July 64 1-2, quotations’ made a rp upturn. Scantiness of hog arrivals gave a|- firmness to provisions. Sellers were hard to find.
