The, Fuel Control Bill
,Quite a considerable portion of the people of
Indiana were clamoring a few months ago for suspension of all federal control ovter fuel, food,
transportation and other functions of the nation
al life. They . asserted that the war ' was over,
and the need of governmental' supervision no
longer existed. - -
Comes now the Indiana senate and passes a concurrent resolution asking the president of the United States to assume control of the price and
distribution of coal. The measure, it is to
be noted, originated in a Republican senate and
and was proposed by a Republican senator. The element of surprise in the proposal is mitigated considerabty by the well established principle that in a crisis political affiliations are not very binding and party consistency is thrown to the winds. One cannot blink the fact that a number of measures introduced in the special session of the general assembly savor strongly of a continued control over certain industries by the state government, the administration coal bill being one of them. The state never took kindly to that measure. .When the governor first broached it, opposition
developed all over the state. No one denied the J r
seriousness of the crisis or wanted to obstruct a measure affording relief, but few persons were heart and soul in favor of state ownership of a mine and of cars to transport the fuel to the state institutions. That smacked too much of socialism for the average Hoosier. Price fixing by state boards and operation of a state-owned mine are two steps which we ought not to take without serious study of the ultimate consequences and of the factors involved. It will pay to mark time instead of going ahead on the double quick. The present session of the legislature is an extraordinary one. It can give little time to deep study of bills. The coal control bill belongs to the category of measures that must not be enacted without long antecedent study.
Answers to Questions
The Fuel Bids City Attorney Robbins counseled with forethought and wisdom when he ruled that the reso
lution asking for bids on another 25,000 tons of coal was invalid. The plant's annual consumption is about 30,000 tons. Of this amount 25,000 tons have been provided for in one contract. The decision of the board to contract for an additional 25,000 tons, on the theory that the original 25,000 tons might not be delivered, was not based on a sound theory. Fifty thousand tons of coal would exceed by 20,000 tons the estimated requirements of the plant and would involve an outlay of money greater by $122,500 than the gross receipts of $275,000 of the plant in 1919. The plant should be assured of an adequate surplus in the bunkers to prevent conditions that occurred in the winters of 1919 and 1918. But, with that, a conservative and safe principle should actuate the board's action.

In the downpour of rain yesterday the sewer at the corner of Main and Fourth streets became badly clogged, and had it not been for the work of Mayor Hoosier, who removed the gratings and cleaned the openings, some of the Main street basements would have been flooded.

The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve It, then you destroy It entirely. To do this, get about four
ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply
it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in
gently with the finger tips. Do this tonight, and by morning most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have. You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop at once, and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store.. It 13 inexpensive and never fails to do the work. Advertise-
