“We have lived here, near

A delicious confec

Washngton.—“Pitiless publicity” is
he slogan of the government for pro
jecting the public againBt the con,
jstantly recurring evils of the coal in
dustry, strikes and the skyrocketing
jof prices, says a correspondent." s$;ij
; A great protective wall of informa-
jtion is being constructed. The coal
commission has spent months in gath-
jering the material. Much bf it has
jalready been used, in the form of re-
jports on various phases of the coal
[question, other reports will pile
jupon one another in the next two
[weeks, including a. detailed report on
jthe soft coal industry, which inter
jests the greater part of the public, j
; To the coal commission, the presi-
jdent has added another agency, the
federal trade commission, which has
(been ordered to make an Investigation
jof anthracite prices, for the purpose
of halting any practices such as were
'found by the coal commission In Its
study of soaring hard coal prices
last year.
, “Public opinion settled the anthra-
cite coal strike. There will never be
another great strike in this country,
Public opinion will kill It”
That Is the comment of one ob
server. The government’s program is
,belng ‘built along that line.
, The Public now knows more about
[the coal industry that ever before.
.More will be known when the coal
commission completes Its reports. The
marshaling of public opinion will
hereafter bo comparatively easy, with
the facts In hand, and the Industry
more than ever an open book. While
the commission has not done every
thing it has blazed the way, and cut
a path to the sources.
