0 magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together. Psalms 34:3. Highbinders Immune 4 6 M ANY operators insist the present demand for coal justifies iVL them in getting more than $4.50 a ton for their coal,”' says a news dispatch. What the operators do NOT say, however, is that they themselves, by their arbitrary closing of the mines, created the coal shortage responsible for “the present demand.” If YOU were to gain control of some commodity which the people can not do without, and were to use your power to withhold this commodity from the public until you had created a “demand” which would “justify” double or triple the price your commodity normally’ sold for, YOU would find yourself in jail quicker than you could say “Jack Robinson!” The coal gougers will not go te jail. Your (?) representative in Washington will see to that. Coal profiteers will boost the price to the limit and you will pay that price—or freeze. That’s all. Did Daugherty Know This? THE Federal Court immediately superior to District Judge] Wilkerson is the Ur.j|ed States Circuit Court of Appeals ' for the Seventh Circuit, Judges Baker, Alschuler and Page. This court has already passed upon vital matters involved in the temporary injunction recently issued by Judge Wilkerson/on application of Attorney General Daugherty. District Judge Anderson, at Tndianapoils, had issued a sweeping injunction against the United Mine Workers. The case was taken on appeal to the higher court, which ordered a radical modification. This superior court said: “Unions of owners of capital may' bargain collectively, through their officers, with laborers either 1 individually or collectively. Unions of laborers may bargain collectively, through their officers, with employers either individ-1 uallv or collectively. Employers may bargain for a closed nonunion shop. Laborers may bargain for a closed nnion shop. Both are entitled to free and equal access to the pool of unemployed labor for the purpose of securing recruits by peaceable appeals to reason. Employers may Jiersnade a union man, provided they do not invade his right of privacy nor invade the rights of another, to become non-union. Union laborers may, under the same conditions, persuade a non-union man to become union • • • In the present state of the law, and without a constitutional exercise of the legislative power of regulation appellee (the coal company) had no greater right to a decree suppressing lawful action (such as the publications, speeches and personal persuasions heretofore mentioned in this paragraph) in support of the closed nonunion shop program than appellants (the miners) had to a similar decree suppressing lawful action in support, of the closed non-union shop program. Neither had any such right.” The Court of Appeals also expressed itself clearly on the issuance of drastic injunctions, saying: * j “Injunction is an extraordinary remedy. It is limited to the protection of property from unlawful invasion. Execution in advance of a full hearing ahd final determination of the issues is’ a drastic measure which may deprive defendants of rights confirmed in them by the final decree. Because the preliminary injunction is necessarily so drastic in its nature, great care should be had in exercising this discretion. “No injunction, preliminary or final, should forbid more than the particular unlawful invasions which the court finds would be committed except for the restraint imposed.” The language of this superior court might have been read to good purpose by Attorney General Daugherty before he took action.

The League’s Chance THE League of Nations has an opportunity to prove its world value by ending the dangerous Turko-Greek war in Asia 'Minor. The league settled the Aland Islands dispute between Sweden snd Finland which avoided a war in the Baltic. If it can now enforce peace in Asia Minor, a long step forward will have been taken toward establishing the league’s prestige on a permanent basis. The original belief that the league could stop a conflict between two first-class powers was based on the assumption that all first-class powers would be members of the league. Such is not the case, hence the present league’s power is limited. Therefore the necessary prestige to major crises can be built up only by continued efforts in minor affairs. The Turko-Greek war involves only third-class powers. Against them the league should be able to employ compulsory measures. But, to do so, there must be unanimity among the league’s leading members. The western European nations have conflicting interests in the Near East. Still, it would be monstrous to assume that any of them is seeking political advantage by secretly encouraging the Asia Minor combatants. If v western statecraft has fallen to that level so soon after the ending of the 'World War the League of Nations is badly served. But if the western world honestly wants to rid civilization of the curse of war, the instrumentality of the league is ready for use. Had America joined the league, how splendid the present opportunity would be for aggressive leadership at Washington in the cause of world peace. As it is, America’s action is limited to rescuing a few of the war’s Christian victims who may happen to have the good fortune to reach the American destroyers in Smyrna harbor.

Land Made Profitable ' The king showed them. Under his ; direction experiments were carried out ! and much of the land which had ; been regarded as waste was brought under profitable cultivation. The esI fate is now producing a greater roveI nue than at any time since it was purchased by the prince consort in Queen Victoria's day. In the large expense of moorland i around Balmoral, which forbids geni eral cultivation, the king is carrying | out an extensive afforestation scheme, j King George is a practical landI lord, who believes that his acreage j should be made to yield revenue. Whether he is staying at Balmoral, i York Cottage or Windsor Castle, he devotes keen personal attention to the administration of the estates. As a result, these lands are yielding a | larger income to the royal bank roll ! than s< any time in the past. Believes in Modem Tools His majesty's success as a practical farmer is attributed partly to his belief in modern agricultural implements. In his development of the Balmoral estate, he introduced the j first motor tractor ever user on a farm in the Highlands Neighboring j landlords, observing the results thus nyromplished, also adopted tractors, which have now come into general . use. j In this baek-to-the-farm idea.

The monumental farm undertakings of the western United States and Canada are said to hold special interest for him. It was largely because of his father's encouragement that the Prime of Wales bought a ranch In Alberta, Canada: when he toured the Dominion three years ago. Father's tip was a good one and the prince already Is drawing a tidy sum of money from the earnings of his Canadian ranch.

THE REFEREE By ALBERT APPLB NOISE r f Quietest place in the world is a laboratory at ! jf AH University of Utrecht, Netherlands. Walls are \ Insulated so that no I ' sound can get In from L i the outside, u. i .. In this absolutely APPLE noiseless room, important experiments are being carried on by scientists studying the effect of noise on human nerves and brain. A person, entering this stillness, has a peculiar sensation in the ears, then a feeling of terror. Noise, which is making a nervous wreck of civilized man, has become such a part of us that its total absence strikes fear to the heart. Deaf people are not affected this way, for the vibrations of sound reach them through their other senses. FISHING The head of a deceased brokerage house swears at the bankruptcy proj cedings in New York that he went on a fishing trip and returned to find $1,000,000 vanished from his office. Rather a costly fishing trip. On a smaller scale, hundreds of thousands of men are letting their money and business get away from them while they are on the golf course, j Golfers usually run to extremes, often develop their liking of the game into an obsession. Like baseball. It easily becomes a mania. FOOD The world's wheat crop this year will boa whoppor, says Department of Agriculture. It will total 3.019,126.000 bushels. This is about 40.000,000 bushels less than last year, but it’s 129,000,000 bushels more than the prewar average. Very Important figures to the wheat grower. For the rest of us, it means that the world in 1923 will become calmer. That is, provided the food is distributed. Unrest does not go with a full stomach. When the mob overthrew the French monarchy, Its cry was "Bread!"

Letters to the Editor

CONCESSIONIST Suggests Method for Improvement of State Fair. To the Editor of The Times Speaking of this year’s State fair. Thomas Grant, president of the State Board of Agriculture, said: "We have staged the greatest exposition since the first fair was held in 1851." From an educational and s.ght-see-i ing standpoint. I agree with Mr. | Grant, but there are some things that probably would bo beneficial to the State fair and the State of Indiana and all those interested in It According to Mr. Grant the paid admission to the fair was smaller than a year ago. Mr. Grant believing the extreme heat of fair week partly the cause. Asa stand owner at the State fair for a few years, I believe the general admission of 75 cents and 75 cents extra for automobiles is too large and the State would gain a larger revenue and the exhibitors would benefit by the increase in attendance. Addition of street lights and sidewalks would help the fair. By platting certain parts of the fairground into streets, an exhibitor would be able to advertise his exact location. This woald enable the public to save time in finding exhibits. The stand owners should be taken into consideration, when they pay from $75 to S2OO for a space to do business on for six days—rain or no rain. Mr. Grant says he hopes eating stands on the fairground will be abolished, I admit that some of them should not be allowed at the fair.

Inventor Simplifies Wireless So That Children Can Understand It

i By NEA Serrice ! READING. Mass., Sept. ’.3.—Simplicity In wireless operation lias not < gone far enough for Earl <’. Hanson, inventor of many radio appliances. So he has proceeded to make radio even simpler. Hanson will be remembered as the inventor of a radio earphone for those , who are hard of hearing, of a radio ! safety apparatus for fishermen, and I of other instruments beneficial to j mankind. His latest product is an at- [ tempt to make radio so simple children copid oodSretand.it apd use It. j The Invention Is a crystal receiver' ill otnpar.t. fotrn. It is unusual in that ! it depends on nq outside aerial. In stead. It is plugged into an electric ; light line, connected to an earphone! and tuned in. I niversal I'so That's for local concerts, for which ! the crystal attached to the Instrument j can bo used as the detector. But if distant* broadcasting is desired, ail that is required is to plug it in and connect it to n vacuum tube receiving set. That not only eliminates the out- i sldo aerial, but it enables the operator 1 to tune in on stations with high wave lengths. Tho instrument is cylindrical, an (inch and a half wide by seven rial a half Inches long. “Inside the cylindrical case.’ explains Hanson, “are placed conden- ■ sers that prevent tho current from i the electric light wires passing through the apparatus. But they per- 1 mit radio waves to pass with com- i paratlve ease. In addition there Is the condenser that is placed In the tele- j phone circuit.

There was entirely too many of them last week, but financially they were a great help to the Stato Board of Agriculture. Eating and lemonade stands are a part of the fair. A fair without "hot ! dogs” and lemonade would be like a | circus without its clowns. I think the statement by I. Newt Brown, secretary of the State Board of Agriculture, that this will be the last year the gates will be open after 6 o’clock without charge, should be g:ven considerable thought by the board. Mr. Brown probably thinks the free gate after 6 o’clock was one reason for tho decrease attendance during the day. I think it would be wise to arrange some kind of entertainment for those who will be compelled to pay the admission charged if they attend the j fair after 6 o'clock. I hope the State Board of Agriculture will give these suggestions due consideration. A CONCESSION IST.

I you couldn't classify him. There wasn't a word in the language that exactly fitted his case. Hence the immediate popularity of "kibitzer." The word is bringing new peace and tranquility to the billiard tables and card rooms, to the checker | boards and tennis courts, as it chases 1 the pestiferous side-line advisors to their holes. It is even proving' useful In literature, art, science, commerce ►and industry; no! to mention politics. Alexander Harkavy, the lexicographer. says "kibitzer" is a Yiddish word, presumably brought to Amer.ea from Austria or Germany by the devotees of chess. As Yiddish is largely composed of middle high German, he thinks the term may have had its origin in the middle high German word "kiebitz,” which refers to the bird known in America as the a “powee.” Leon Crystal, theatrical critic for the Jewish Daily Forward, classes it as a slang term long in vogue among Yiddish theatrical and literary men and advances the theory that it may have been derived from the Hebrew "kibutz,” from the "group.” which gathers about the card and chess tables arid incubates the genius kibitzer. The noun is "kibitzer," the verb is "kibitz.” and the participate is "kibitzing.” No matter what the source, the effect is to clear the immediate atmosphere of unasked advice and informa- | tion.

PARIS, Sept. 13. —The recent so | joum of Kmg Alfonso XIII ol Spain at Deauville hasn’t served at : all to convert, republican France to the monarchical idea.
