He bases this ad. vice on the possibllity of trouble in the coal industry next winter; the fear that the raliroads will not be able to handle the coal demanded in the fall months, and the probability that no results will come, by that time, of the work of the TUnited | Etates coal commission in an attempt to lower prices. It is said also that the' Department of Commeres, the Chamber of Commerce and the Asso- | clation of Rallroad Executives have | already given the same advice—to get in coal supplies before September, | Probably this will seem like good advice to conservative, careful people, and probably it 18 “safe” advice. It {s here emphasized that a point may be made of the opinion of such an| suthority as the Fuel Distributor. Probably no one would make a seri- | ous mistake by following such ad- vice. But this newspaper, some weeks ago, summarized in these columns, | the findings of one who philosophized ‘ in a practical manner on the coal | situation, and came to the definite | conclusion that, in all probability, coal | would be cheaper this coming win- ter than it was last. This deduction was based on the belief that both the | miners and the operators of coal mines are now afraid to stop the mining of coal because of differences that would lead to a great strike. It winter stocks of is also belleved that much coal has | that freedom, ol been mined since the termination of | the trouble of last winter; that the railroads are fast getting Into nhnpe‘ to carry more coal, and that the gen- | eral conditions indicate less rather | than more trouble than in the P“t'i Moreover the imminence of the re- | port of the United States Coal Com- mission will tend to make operators and miners “behave.” They will have no desire to btng about a shortage immediately before such which = shortage, should it come, w consider the great we ardered believers to go Gospel i let such & man ask hw self how we to spread any gosy mong th ang ca ot unders And e true American realize that ae » of this ountry is so afraid of ther that fears 10 know the language of that other, and 1ot him eherish that gua 1ee of liberty, firmly p titution of the I'nited Htates and of greater &1 him advocate the laying tress upon it 0 OUR WOMEN GOLFERS. Te probably some fifty wov golfers of the state have drive brassied, appreached and putted over the attractive links of the Ehuttle Meadow elub, They have also lunched and exchanged post mortems inside the elubhouse whieh, of course, will ever hereafter be more delightful be. eause they have honored it. First we should like to tell them how glad we are to welcome them and secondly we should like to tell them how hard it Is for us to remain gway from the links—to become a humble part of the gallery which follows them, This regret, however, is lessened by the | secret knowledge that we would ofteny feel more humble still, seeing, as we undoubtedly would see, how much better some of them play than we do. | A man who Is quite satisfled to get “out of the rough” on his drive from the first tee, for instance, would be quite apt to obey the dictates of his| | consetence and hasten back to the office where he belongs, were he to wateh one after another of the drives of these women sail gracefully over the bunkers and the ridge of the hill in front of that first tee and go roll- ing and dancing far on toward the first hole. = ‘W BRITAIN unlike @ deg sometimes bites when it barks ierstorm, Tempus fugit” does not apply to the elecks in the here ehureh steeples Men may ecome and men » but Time goes on forever," is Musion shattered The action of the general assembly certainly is a “publiely displayed l0g —10 progress New let's think ‘ef the actions of people with intelligence.

It has be- | come great because here, more than in any land, lberty, freedom and in- itiative in developing our natural re- sources has been encouraged. There is absolutely no limit to the height to which an American may rise. | Anything that destroys that iberty, | her than the laws| against the doing of anything inher- | ently wrong, tends to take away one | or more of the characteristics which have entered into the development of | this country and its people. Discus- | slons of any law, of any action, which consider only the immediate inspiration of the law or the action, | and fail to consider in what direction | such law, such actfon Is leading, are | puerile discussions. All law, all ac-| report, | tion in order to help maintain our national ruggedness should have, as would likely make such report more the inspiring motive, a wise deter- | gevere.

The agreement shows legal docu- ments were dated in the reign of the assassinated son of Alexander the Great long after the young ruler's death. Apparently Peteche, the no- tary, had received no official confir- mation of the voung king's death and therefore dated his agreement “In the month of tybi of the tenth vear of Pharaoh Alexander, son of Alexand- er." | | 6 ) O 133 % 25 Years Ago T oday: (Taken from Herald of that date) | o s o Mr. and Mrs ing street left today for a visit with | friends in New York, The meat market of Vivian, just north of the George C. raliroad crossing was entered last evening and | about $25 in pennies was taken from | the money drawer.

Salisburg, Southern Rhodesia, June 5.—That human sacrifice is still prac- ticed in some parts of the old world | was shown recently when six mem- bers of a local tribe were sentenced to death for burning alive a young man named Manduza in order to ap- | pease the rain goddess. Rhodesia had been suffering from a severe drought and some of the na- tive tribes ascribed it to the wrath of | the: goddess who they believed had heen violated, The chief of the tribes conducted inquiries which led them to believe that his son Manduza was guilty of assailing the virtue of the goddess. The rain goddess, a young and handsome girl, was produced in court but did not glve evidence, Counsel for the defense commented on the high motives which led the chiet to sacrifice his own son for rain in order to save his people, and re- {erred to cases in Hebrafc and Sem- itic history.

The Supreme Court of the United States has held that statutes prohib- {ting the use of foreign languages in public, private and parochial schools in Towa, Nebraska, Ohio and 18 other gtates in instructing pupils below the | eighth grade, are invalid. The statutes were held to Infringe upon the personal liberty of the peo- ple of this country as guaranteed by the Tourteenth amendment to the Constitution, which provides: “No State—shall deprive any person of life, liberty or property without due process of law.” It is good to have this ment brought to the attention, not of the people, for the people know it well and grow angered as they see its amend- meaning being smothered deeper and deeper beneath so-cailed “law,” but rather to the attention of law makers. The outrageous “time” bill has no consideration for this And so the “law" twhich teaching a foreign schools took no amendment forbade languag in the thought for this amendment which ig the keystone of this country's structure of ideals this amendment which strong, virile country full of virile men and women.

There is a political aspect to it: politicians differ as to the effect Governor Smith's action will have on his future in politics | But there is a legal aspect to it, and it may be declared with a fair | degres of certainty in the justice of the declaration, that there is the spirit of jutice in abolishing a situa- tion which allows a man to remain | in danger of a second prosecution for an alleged crime of which he has been cleared, or which may make him pay two penalties for the same of- fense. And there may be tion of right in the belief that strong, rugged character of the states and their sense of responsibility will not be lessened by the refusal of New York state and its executive to hear cases of alleged crime for breaking a law paseed by congress The New Haven Journal-Courier, | in an editorial on the subject, quotes a sentence in Governor Smith's state ment with which that newspaper agrees, Whether or not Emith was moved primarily by the believe that Governor thought it contains, we the resuit he predicts will to signing of the act repealing thg Mul lan-Gage law.
