COAL CONTROL URGED BY CALDER States Can Do Much in Correct ing Abuses, but Problem Is National, Says Sonator PUBLICITY SEEN AS CURE Bv a Staff Corrttpndent Wtulilnjrton. Dec 21. Senator Wil liam M. Cnldor. of New York, chnlr man of the Senntc Kubcommlttee which ha ben lnvestigntlnic fuol and hoimlns problwrn, displayed Rreat lntorent to day In the Evening Prnt.io LKnoint'ii ftUfgrMlon thn untne of the abuses found by the committee to exist In the anthracite IndtiPtry could be corrected by utato mipcrvlslon and control. He expressed doubt whether the state could jro farther than nuprrrlto the produc tion and distribution of coal mined mid Hold within ItH own borders, "It is an Interesting suffKCStlon nnl n valuable one," Senator Colder wild. "A Htmllar plan for state control of the Industry was proposed In Alabama, .with the result that the state authorl- I tics and operators entered Into a mutual arrangement governing the Industry, which ecenvi to be working out very I satisfactorily. I have no doubt the utate of I'enntiy'vanla could do n, great deal toward correcting abuses which now exist in the hard coal region, I "Indiana Is also attempting state I regulation of coal mining, A coal com , mlNglon has been created there, with au- thorlty under legislative enactment to I lii prices and control distribution. The I districts ourts have ruled that this form of ontrol Is constitutional, so far as it affects coal mined and so'd within thn state. The decision bus been ap pealed by the operators, and tho con test Is now before the Circuit Court of I Appeals, It Is an Interesting experiment and worth studying. In my own judgment, the best and only curc-nll for the evils In Industry Is the widest possible pub licity. 1 believe that if we get these things out In the open ond get them dls cuted, the remedies will present them selves and be applied to specific prob lems. We began curinc the evils of the life insurance business as It was for merly conducted when Governor Hughes brought the gentlemen who controlled the companies out Into the open. He showed who these men were and what their methods vcri. That laid the foun dation for the reforms that transformed life Insurance into a business which iaiBOT PtfrWEMTAL-EQUmnZ - TITLE & TRUST CO.

The Btates can be of material assistance, but can only regulate prices and distribution within their own bor ders. I question whether any stote con constitutionally attempt to regulate price and distribution of any commod ity In Interstate commerce, or the hulk of which Is shipped beyond the stutc borders. That Is where Congress must step In, unless the Industry sets up re forms voluntarily and take steps to pro tect the public against extortion and faulty methods of markctln?.
