UUAL SHIM HUH IN INDIANA IS HITJHEPORT State Utilities Commission Tells Governor Present Prices Are "Outrageous."

INDIANAPOLIS, June 6. Coal prices in Indiana hare advanced to a stage which the state public commission terms "outrageous,", and something mimt h clem a to reduce them, a resort

of the commission on its recent coal

hearing filed with Governor Goodrich, today says. The report points out that government control of fuel has been found necessary in some of the Fnrnnpan countries but says that such

radical steps in the United States may

not be necessary. A sueeestion is made that the gov

ernor may find it advisable to appoint a utate coal and fuel director, whose

duties will be similar to that of the

food director. Commission of One Mind-

After preliminary remarks setting forth that hearings were held' and in

formation gathered, tne report says: "Dnr investigation has left no

shadow of doubt in the mind of a

single one of the five members of the commission that in this critical period priees for the necessities : have been advanced to a point that we cannot designate otherwise than as outrage

ous. 4,Onr utate wide investigation re

vealed that Indiana coal had been advanced in this state from 100 to as high

as 400 per cent during tne last nair years. The domestic consumers, a large army of whom are on lc wages, that have not materially advanced, and a considerable number of whom can only buy small amounts, of even one hundred pound delivery as needed, are having to pay double or more than double the prices ordinarily for this vital necessity. ' Always on Hand. "The state-wide investigation developed beyond all controversy against the assertion that the mines were being kept closed part or whole of the time because of lack of coal cars in which to load and haul the coal, the fact that coal was always to be had and on quick delivery if the prices demanded were paid." The report points out that operators asserted the average cost of mining Indiana coal was $1.48 a ton, and that railroads had contracted for what they desired at the mines at prices from $1.90 to $2.10 a ton, the roads agreeing to furnish cars for full working time at the mines. Operators would not say what they telieved a fair profit above the cost of minlas would be, but the report say3 from other sources it has been learned mine owners have said from 15 to 25 cents a ton was reasonable profit above expenses. ' No Point of Control. The commission points out that it has no way of controlling the coal prices but says, "it was shown at the conference of coal operators and partly agreed to by some of them, that a maximum price should be established on the various grades of Indiana coal for Indiana consumers." There was a disposition of the mine owners and operators to co-operate with the service commission in solving the fuel problem, the report declares. The railroads did not escape censure from having diverted coal cars to other traffic. All five of the commissioners signed the report.

About tfteen young men residing in Jefferson township, also claimed exemption because they were affiliated with, the Church of the Brethren, commonly known as the Dunkard church, a sect which also subscribes to the principles of non-resistance. Attached to each registration card of a Dunkard who claimed exemption was a church certificate setting forth the fact that . these men re-afflrmed the anti war covenant of the sect. ' Pastor Signs Pleas Each certificate was signed by Rev. L. W. Teetor, and in each instance he advanced the plea that the members of his flock who are of military age are entitled to all war exemption prlv ileges "granted members of organizations holding non-resistance principles." . No report of , the registration of conscripts in Wayne county yesterday would be complete without reference to the patriotic services rendered by the men who had charge of the registration. No member of the county board, or those who assisted the board as clerks, nor any one of the sixtyve registrars claimed fees for their work although the war department recognized the fact that these officials were entitled to compensation if they desired to submit claims. The registration officials regarded themselves as too good Americans to ask for a , patriotic service to their country. Sheriff Carr, head of the registration board, also complimented

the Boy, Scouts, who served the board yesterday as messenger and errand boys. ' Only seventy-two men were registered yesterday as " aliens, most of them residing in Richmond. i Eight men were listed as "alien enemies." Technically only unnaturalized Germans can be regarded as "alien enemies." for the United States is only at war. with Germany, but two Austrians residing in the north end precinct were listed as "alien enemies" because they refused to be registered, declaring they would not fight for the United Stales. Apparently the registrar in this district, decided he was justified in listing these two Austrians as "enemies" because Austria , is an ally of Germany, and because the men declared they would not fight against Germany, V.-.C: '. .... The majority of aliens listed are Italians. Several were' Hungarians. . Some of the men claiming exemp

tion from service advanced . peculiar reasons in support of their claims. One man asserted that he subscribed to the commandment: "Thou ahalt rot kill." ' '. . 1 Quite a few declared they were "opposed, to war." One man said he was the sole support of his mother-in-law. Another maa doesnt want to go to war because he is the "father of twins." ... -

GILES FORGED

IXontlnued From Page One. taining the data the teachers obtained for his use, but as lecturers on educational topics do not speak for nothing, it is a pretty safe , conclusion that

Giles did not make the speeches without recompense. These are incidents that have aroused the teachers against Giles. - He . is exceedingly unpopular with the teachers.' f . ? Indications today were that a mass meeting would be held at the High school auditorium late this week or early next week by citizens to protest against the retention of Giles as head of the school system. Realize Attitude Now. Citizens who discussed the question today said that a full realization' of the opposition of Giles to the penny lunch system did not come to them until they saw how Giles crucified Ramsey. In this connection, they recalled the activity of Melpolder. paid agent of public philanthropy, in fighting Ramsey. Opposition to the methods of the secretary of the Social Service Bureau was again aroused. Citizens want both Giles and Mel

polder fired. They know that Giles is President of the Social Service Bureau and that Melpolder and Giles work hand in hand. - - ' Lodge Men Confer. At "a conference last night between a committee from the Junior Order of United American Mechanics and the Brotherhood of the First Methodist church, the case of D. D. Ramsey was presented to the Mechanics' committee and the committee will report to the lodge next Monday night with recommendations that the lodge ask for Mr. Ramsey's reinstatement. A conference will also be sought by the committee with members of the city school board in an effort to get that body to take some further action In the matter. It is understood that several other

lodges In the city are planning to take similar action against the uncalled for dismissal of Ramsey by Giles, although no other order has yet taken such action. - -.
