The Connecticut Chamber of Com- merce has wired the President of the United States to the effect that it sup- ports the anthracite coal operators offer to arbitrate all questions between them and the miners, The telegram to the President says: “In casting their favorable votes our membe: had in mind the sacrifice and hard- ship which they may be forced to endure in order to make sccure the American principle of freedom of em- ployemnt.” It should be noted here that oppo- sition to the check-off was the ground for the lofty stand of the chamber. Eliminatae the matter of the check- off and there is little to base this word upon. Now the plan of Governor Pinchot, for which we hold no brief, except as it may form a proper basis of agreement, eliminate .the check-off. Hence, to the rules of logic, this word of the Cham- ber has no foundation upon which to stand. Now it is important to consider the form in which the question was sub- mitted to the members of the state Chamber. Was it, as the lawyers say, & leading question. Was but one an- ship has does according ~* swer expected to it? ‘Do you believe that the anthracite coal operators even at the expense of a strike, should insist upon the arbi- _tration of all issues still remaining In| main on the job provided the latter their controversy with the United Mine Workers rather than agree to the Union demand for the inaugura- tion if the check-off system as a pre- liminary to further negotiations?” Could any answer other than “Yes" have been expected from such a question? The interpolation of the word “even” shows that the framers of the question called for an affirma- tive reply. Had it read "do you be- lieve the operators at the expense of a strike should insist upon the arbi- tration,” the answer expected would have been ‘“no.” This noting sof the framing of the question upon the answers to which was based the decision of the state Chamber is important only because it indicates the trend of opinion of the | the tale was true held by many people ledders of the Chamber.

The suffering of its members would be in this country to believe that there son In a. position which requires a deal of explaining. And Commission- er Haynes has had a deal of explain- ing to do ever since he wrote all about how the enforcement act was en- forced, and sold the articles to a newspaper, as he is reported to have done, telling government business which, it would seem is thé sort of news that ought to be given out with- out profit to the giver if it is to be given at all. But wait a moment. Tt has been sald that Commissioner Haynes wrote the articles. That, possibly, is an error as the report has it the articles were written by “Mr Haynes' government pald publicity staff.” The late President Harding was splendidly loyal to his friends Commissioner Haynes was his friend. Now President Coolidge is in the White House and the commissioner has throat trouble. President Coolidge has inherited certain policies which he has pledge himself to follow, but he cer- tainly has not inherited the friend- ships of his former chief. President Coolidge is considered *“‘dry"” his leanings although he has not commit- ted himself as strongly as did the late President. It is quite possible, the mat- ter of friendship being = eliminated, that the present Chief Executive will not urge Commissioner Haynes to re- and in should consider his present affliction a good reason for giving up the duties which have been arduous at all times ——not less arduous bhecause of the way in which the Commissioner has handled them. THAT “HIDDEN TREASURE‘:" The pot of gold reported found at Hagerstown, Md,, by a laborer was no pot of gold, but only a tin can in which there was no money at all, so the authentic report of the affair has it. The Government Investigators have been called off the job, and are ordered to forget it. There is nothing surprising in this denouement, but the interest and partial belief in the possibility that is somewhat characteristic. Many be- lieved that such box of treasure had been found. Many jumped to the con- clusion that it must be Bergdoll's treasure, the wish being father to the thought, perhaps, as had it been his it would have been taken over by the Government—and we should liked to see this done.
