Mining experts declare the Dolomite mine explosion, which took a toll of nearly 100 lives, to have been a freak, only three of its kind being; recorded. A string of dump cars on the slope

leading from the mine broke loose and literally dropped eiht hundred feet into the mine switchyard, where sparks ipnited the clouds of coal dust and the blast following snuffed out the

lives of the unfortunate miners. National guard units were 5immoued to keep back the crowds. The above photo was taken at night as vork of clearing the mine progressed-

rapid inroads that the war and ! various forms of waste have mad1 j on the resources of humanity, a few comparative fig-urea may be 1 quoted. The total pre-war indeotedness of the one hundred counj tries and colonies was 143,000. ! 000,000. At the end of the war J this amount had risen to $205, j COO. 000, 000. Therefore, world ! wide national indebtedness ini creased $162,000,000,000 during I the four year war period, or a the rate of a little over $10,000,-

I 000,000 a year. Between 19 IS and

; 1921, the date of the latest av

; able figures bearing on this subject, the increase was $175, 000, ' 000,000, or over $50,000,000,000 per year. ! It i3 to be borne in mind, of course, that these figures do not make an entirely accurate revela- : tion of the world-wide financial status. Money in itself is net ! wealth. It is merely the symbol of wealth. Also, a portion ot world indebtedness would be eliminated if all the nations could get together and balance accounts among themselves. i In searching for the root of ad- ; vancing commodity costs, world- ' wide economic instability, and social unrest, one need go no further than these figures. People in all : countries must work and save ami develop efficiency. And, as America is today the leader of nations, it is the rightful duty of the people of this country to set an exAmple in thrift for all humanity

to follow.
