If the operators are honest, v.hy are they opposed to an investigation? They claim they are losing money at the present Jirlco, JH.lu for nut and stove and J7.R5 for esg at the mines. If anything, they should court an Investigation In place of opposing It. The freight on coal at the present time en the Pennsylvania Railroad from the mines to Philadelphia i 12.01). $2.80 and 8 22, or an RVerage of $2.00 a ton de livered In tho yards at Philadelphia.

I want to assure him that I prldo myself en being a real American, and down In my heart I am one who thinks .that the ei-oldler has something coming to him. I ehould like him to show me some of those Men who come back from tho war better Physically than when they went away. In regird to his line about not hearing any kirks from those who hm to buy 1,1b. rty bonds on weekly or innnthlv payment and who have since bem forced to sell them at ii meat sacrifice, I would like to know Jherc he was during the war, and If he bought any bonds out of a pay' of J30 a month, as lots of the soldiers did, and then Jicon their return were forcid to sell their bonds ut ,i sacrifice. I had to sell mine at a rcrlflecs to buy civilian clothes, and I am not kicking ". 1hn writer referred to sajs the ex-solmsi nothing coming. Neither has any real American, et ho makes on -awful howl about buying Liberty bonds and selling them at a sacrifice The few dollars sacrifice ho rnuy have made does not compare to one Oiy sacrifice that any soldier made.

Turner's view on passes to rallroid employes: Since reading his letter In the People's Forum of March 1 1 nnd calling the acceptance of passes as graft, etc., I have been wondering what kind of a narrow-minded person he might lie or what position In this world lie holds. Always remember that the railroad man, on an average, Is a man's man, more than the average critic of railroad men. lie i out and producing., doing service to the pub llo and his company so his employers can please the public and accommodate same on tlm, any time and all the time, ln limited time, Mr. Turner, let mo have some Idea of how much you do In this world to promote tho equality of all and perhaps I can then broaden your narrow mind, that Hve3 only for yourself. J. J. McKNEHY. Cheltenham, Pa.. March 15. 1021. Hls Sort of Spirit To the Editor of the Evening Public Ledger: Sir I have read the letter by "Sersls," and must say ho Is evidently very Illogical. Ho admits that ho Is no professor, but, nevertheless, must omphnUeully illsawroo with what they say. Then he turns about and euy that although we have no means of Investigating spiritualism that compare.! favorably with the mean's used in science, yet spiritualism Is Certainly tru. I will attempt to give "Serais" some Ideas which. If not correct, may show him a new linn of thought. He refers to the spirit as being something not material, hut yit some thlnjr. This Is not necessarily true, and I um Inclined to believe that M!rlt Is good will and good Intention. If we hold It be fore us through many generation. It will guide our consciousness clea; of the baser Instinct which man has Inherited from long before our Saviour Introduced tne new spirit Into the world. O. JAUURTTH.
