Whisky Removal Mystery. According to the Tatro ‘story, gun play. excited truck drivers and much mystery figured in the removal of the Whisky from the Schwartzhaup & Co. warehouse when it was learned that prohibition agents under’ Mr. Gregory were investigating the deal. The permits, it was _ said, were later taken from the Schwartzhaup office following a struggle between the proprietor and the man who gave him the permit originally.

Only trains which were made up and delivered to crews outside the rail- yoad yards were moved.

The first bomb exploded in the railroad yards and two more were hurled at the pass- ing train as the engine wheels spun over ofled rails in pulling out of Kansas City.

URGED BY CITIZENS Sixteenth Street Heights Plea for Better Service Laid Before Utilities Body. Citizens of Sixteenth Street Heights today asked the Public Utilities Com- misslon to extend the 16th street bus line of the Washington Rapid Transit Company from the presest terminal at Buchannan street, Alaska and Georgia avenues. Charles M. Shinn, representing the Sigteenth Street Heigh! Citizens’ Assoclation, told the commission that many people living in that new sub- utb have to walk a long distance to g6t to the street cars and frequemtly have to stand ‘up in the cars coming down town. Samuel R. Bowen. vice president of the Washington Railway and Electric Company, objected to the proposed extension. He sald the only ground on which such an extension should be ordered is that the street car serv- ice is inadequate. He told the com- mission that #f it regards street car service as insufficient the company is willing to put on more cars. . John H. Hannan, vice presigint of the Capital Traction Company, re- minded the commission that his com- pany intends to extend the 14th street line as soon as that street is opened tor the District line, and stated that if the bus company is allowed to run aldng Alaska avenue to Georgia ave- nye it should be with the understand- ing that the busses be withdrawn' as 500n as the car line is extended.

The members of the committee are: behest of Secretary Hoover, but with| new mines opening dally the con- trolling agency, the federal fuel dis-. tributor, has been confronted with the possibility of a breakdown in the control exercised over prices. Whether the present system, which is purely voluntary, can be extended to the mines now being opened is a gues- tion being given serious considera- | tion by officiala. - Some of President Harding's advis- jers, notably Secretary Hoover, are iknown to feel that Congress should be asked to enact some sort of price-con- trol legislation to preveat skyrocketing of coal prices as the result of the shortage caused by the miners’ walk- out. Belief has been expressed in some quarters that the President would include such a request or sug- gestion in his message to Congress on the industrial situation, but no in- formation had come from the White | House today as to the President's dis- position in the matter. Grain Elevators Problem. The federal distribution committee announced today that another question that had come to it for solution was whether grain elevators should be i classed as public utilities, and thereby given priority in coal supplies. Rep- | resentations have been made, the com- mittee said, that the operation of large elevators In Kansas City, Omaha, | Wichita and other middie western cities waz a matter of cohsiderable urgemcy at this time when grain ship- ments sre at_their The com- mittee was said to hold that the needs of elevators come within the jurisdic- commands as compared with domestic coal, and declared that “there is a real need for all British cargo coal and that it should help to meet the re- quirements of many consumers in New York and New England.” The Shipping Board announced yes- terday that a total of sixty-five coal- carrying vessels had been chartered to bring coal from England and Wales since the strike began to reach seri- ous proportions. Investigation of charges of profi- teering in coal was asked of Secretary Hoover yesterday by Senator Borah, republican, Idaho, in a letter calling for suggestions as to immediate measures to prevent charging of ex- cessive prices. Borah Accuses Operators. Senator Borah said in his letter that he entertained no doubt that “some of the operators have taken advantage of the situation to charge unusuai and exorbitant prices and that the practice will now be more general in all probability.” He sub- mitted prices of April 3 and August 7, made in his investigation, he said, showing large price increases and added that he also had letters to sup- port the profiteering charges. Stating that “the coal- strike is practically settled. or at -least in | precess of settlement,” Senator Borah added: 2 “I should be pleased to have any {facts or data in the possession of ! your department and your own views | and suggestions relative to this situ- jation. and as to what we can do in a speedy and practical way to deal with the situation. I do not presume at this day in the session we will be able to legislate fully in regard to all phases of the coal Industry in the {matter of regulation and control of that industry. That feature of the legisiation may be taken up at the next session, for certainly we ought to endeavor to protect the country against a recurrence of these annual controversies between the operato: and the miners, the cost of which is pushed on to the public. ut it has occurred to me that something should be and can be done at once to assist In controlling the prices of coal in the presemt emer~ gency, and upon that subject I am particularly interested to have the facts and suggestions.” HIATT AIDE TO IRELAND.

Many western western business men favor the ap- pointment of Mr. Meyer to the Federal Reserve.Board on the ground that if the personnel of the board had been alive to its opportunities it would have made the revival of the War Finance Corporation after the war unneceseary. Should Mr. Meyer be moved up to the Federal Reserve Board. or be made controller of the currency, which offi- cer is, by law, a member of the same board by reason of the office he hoids, there is a chance that Senator Mc- Cumber of North Dakota, chairman j of the Senate finance committee, might | be given the Mever place. McCumber Out in March. Mr. McCumber was defeated for re- nomination in the republican pri- maries in North Dakota recently, and his term expires next March. The President is said to be anxious to take care of Mr. McCumber, and the job of managing director of the War {Finance Corporation pays $10,000 a :yenr, which is more than a senator ets. Vacancies like this do not.occur every day, and if Mr. McCumber were to become managing director of the War Finance Corporation, in order to make the shift complete, he would have to resign from the Senate at once. This, in turn. would make Senator Smoot of Utah chairman of the finance committee of the Senate a few months sooner than otherwise would have been the case, and would ve Mr. Harding the benefit of Mr. imoot's extraordinary familiarity with <sepublican fiscal and tariff policies in the short session of Congress in De- cember, if not in the all-important closing days of the present special session, which may last until .mid-.
