(Official City, State and Ccanty Newspaper) The Cheapest Way For a long time it has been our custom to speak of man power us the cheapest power there is. We mention Chinese coolies who labor 12 hours a day for a few cents, and agree that this is the} AYNE, BURNS cheapest sort of labor; we say that such monu-| ments as the pyramids and the Chinese wall would never have been built if the ancient rulers who con- ceived them had not had unlimited supplies of hu-} man labor. i But, as ‘is often the case, we're wrong. Ma-} chinery—expensive, complicated machinery—is far * and Virginia : cheaper than the cheapest of coolies. There is, one} might almost say, nothing that man can do with) his hands or his back that could not be done more | quickly and cheaply by machinery. Not long ago a western business man_ studied | the transportation of goods from Tientsin, China, | to the desert of Gobi. Coolies carried all this mer-| chandise, moving mile after mile at a steady, space- | ing for only a few cents} devouring trot, and wo: a.day—probably the lowest wages received by any taborers on carth. Qn the other side of the world—in West Virginia huge freight trains ¢ the mines down to tidewa miles of costly track. There are highl. locomotives and cars to be built there are crews of well-paid tr yn to operate | them. There has been a tremendous investment of | capital, as opposed to almost no investment at all on the Tientsin-Gobi route. Yet the cost per ton of transporting goods inj the American coal fields is just about one per cent of the cost of the “cheap” Chinese transportation. This is one of Ame ’s greatest services to the world. Our business men and industrialists have forever exploded the old belief that it economical to have vast armies of poorly-paid, hard-working “wage slaves” to do work. They have shown that the most elaborate and apparently costly way is also the easiest and cheapest way. Not only is it inhumane for a nation to depend on a submerged cl: of laborers for its heavy work; it is prehibitively expensive. That is why, some day, the oppre class, in China and in all other countri appear from the face of the ear The American v bett coolie » Will dis- What Price Coal? During the year 1926 2,250 men lost their in J ican coal mines, : This fact, made public by the U. S. Bureau of} Mines, is worth considering for a minute or two. If some one catastrophe had taken all of those lives the American public probably would be jarre‘l inte action. From all sides there would be de- mands for protective measures to render such 4 tragedy impossible of repetition. But it didn't happen that way. There were a} few. disasters of major size; the rest of those | deaths were scattered—a man crushed by falling rock" here, a couple of men killed by a coal car lives} {can fan’s appetite for the game. +Jall, is the national game. ¢it“is too big a game to —_——— [necessary to take from the individual certain| ‘rights and privile; in order that the greater ‘liberty of the city, state and nation might be as- ;sured. It is with this thought in mind that zoning jordinances are enacted, that by slightly curbing the privileges of a few, the people of a community as a whole will benefit greatly. Zoning is not a question of snobbery; it is a question of beauty, symmetry and efficiency. It is not so much an arbitrary movement to bar things as it is a move to create better things and to pro- mote conditions that will be of greatest benefit to the greatest number, $ Solving Radio Chaos The federal radio commission is faced with a problem that almost unsolvable and which will take exceeding ingenuity to even approach a solu- tion at all satisfactory to all factions concerned. ‘There are 733 stations and no place to put them. | As a matter of fact there can be no efficient regu- lation that comprehends more than 300 stations in| the channels of wave lengths available, The large problem, then, is not only how to regu- late the 300 which would be allowed, for that would be relatively simple, but to find a way of elimin- | jating 433 stations, One method, of course, is to refuse to license these stations. Another plan, | sponsored by G, C. Furness of the National Carbon | jcompany, is to put all the stations which would | | otherwise be refused licenses, in a band below 200 | | met: and there let them create their own chaos | to their hearts’ content. His theory is that t y | | would soon weary of the situation and remedy it | ing field. iby dropping out of the broadcas It is a difficult problem, indeed, that the com- mission faces. It must be fair to the broadcasters and to the listeners. In the entire broadcast band there are but 95 channels, each ten kilocyeles wide. This width of band has proven best for the indi- vidual station, representing not the most efficient band, but an irreducible minimum. Any plan for the regulation of broadcasting must, therefore, be limited on this side at least by electrical limitations. In addition it is found that geographical location has a great bearing on the question. To the layman the whole question is a maze of little understood technical det All the listener can hope for is | that someone can understand it and thus be able to work out a satisfactory solution, Rings For Men? Men, too, are to wear engagement rings hence- h. So the retail jewelers of Massachu- in convention assemble: It may well be. The jew 's offer to help any girl who wishes it to select a suitable ring. They point out that it’s only fair, after all, for the male to wear a badge of his engaged status, just as the | girl does. But here’s the rub; the stone, naturally, is to be | t! bought by the girl, And how many young ladi earnestly laying away evexy.dime for wedding gar ments and the like, are going to dig down to be- stow on friend husband-to-be an expensive ring? Somehow, we have a hunch that this scheme will die. And it won't be the men that will kill it, either. say £ The National Game Various sport writers are covering, with some | \ surprise, that the baseball “scandals” of the past winter have failed utterly\to dim the great Ameri- On the contrary. it seems that the public at large is awaiting the coming baseball races more eagerly than ever be- fore. , It isn’t so hard to understand.

Wrecking baseball would be a job calling for the i services of super-experts, Editorial Comment Governor Smith’s Reply (New York Times) It is fortunate for religious liberty in the United States that the question whether a Catholic can be there, another killed by falling down a shaft in another place, and so on. And so the price at which our coal is mine: escaped our attention. But there are men whose attention this casualty record has not escaped. Those men are the miners themselves. very well the price that is paid for coal. Understanding that fact may help us to under- stand such things as the present coal strike. It may help us to see why these men feel that the: would rather enter on a long and doubtful indus trial struggle than see their wages cut or their hours of work lengthened. Be that as it may, however, one thing is sure; the death list is disgracefully high. It would be impossible to say just what should be done without first making a long and careful study of the whole situation. But it does seem as if a nation that prides itself on its industrial efficiency as this nation does could find some way of getting its coal out of the ground without sac- rificing so many lives in the process, Zoning Again Upheld For the second time the supreme court of the United States has upheld zoning ordinances municipalities which attempt to restrict certain sections for certain purposes, such as garage, resi- dential, office building, and so on. The first case was. one arising in Euclid, Ohio, and here the su- preme court swept aside all ancient prejudices and precedents and stated definitely that cognizance must be taken of changed conditions and the in- creased complexities of urban life. The court held that the zoning ordinance in purpose and intent was strictly within the constitution of the United States. Now, for .a second time, a zoning ordinance has been upheld, this time in Minneapolis, where a writ of mandamus was sought to compel the build- ing inspector to issue a permit for a four-story apartment building in a zone from which such structures are barred by the city’s zoning ordinance. Let us hope that this will settle the controversy and that various states will now amend their 80 as to provide complete state legality has brought man in closer and You may be sure that these men know | of | elected president was raised in the person of Alfred \E, Smith.

The very jewel of his life has been his unquestioned integrity. Not even his bit- ; terest political opponent has ventured to challenge | that.
