Chinese Raise Real
Issue en Consortium
(entlnuril from I'nsr One
reach uny conclusion as te what the
cunt truth is.
What the Chinese have accomplished
has. been te create an atmosphere of
suspicion. Wlinl they allege te have
been done by the consortium in tills
case, the ue of the consortium's power
our credit te make itself the collecting
agency for claims against China, ether
than Its own, Is something tliut. If It
has net happened in tills case, might
happen in the future. Japanese
bankers, for example, might de whnt
the Chinese agents assert American
bankers hnie done In this Instance,
I'm- the Icgnlitx of (lie claims re
gaidlng tlie Mn Kuans bends, there Is
a strong presumption. The Chinese
leprescntutiics me net especially em
plinth' in asserting thnt tlie present
holders hnic net a reasonable right te
demand pnvnient. And the note of
Secretary Hughes te China would ap
parently indlcnte thnt . after examina
tion of the issue, the State Department
was cetninccd that China should pay.
Hut what the Chinese representatives
are .striving te de is te show wdiat power
the consortium, even new, has ever
China, nnd hew" it mny be abused. As
a matter of fact China has suffered in
the past, net from this consortium, but
lust the sort of international debt col
lecting which she alleges new. She ha'
lieeli told mere thnn once thnt she could
only obtain a lean she wns seeking If
she paid some foreign claim, which she
icff.nrded ns utterly unwarrantable.
Thus the consortium nnd the llu
Killing bends are likely te remain one
of the big issues of tlie conference, un
less the Chinese chnrges are completely
disproved in detail.
Foreign jeurnullsts gathering here are
Impressed by nothing mere than by tlie
dillieulty of inducing this country te
undertake commitments In the Far L'nst,
They knew that opposition te nny such
commitments will start In the Senate
the moment nny commitment!) arc in
sight. Lliey see me country vasiiy in-
teiested in (lisariuainent, but uninformed
and Indifferent about the Far Fast.
I They feel that the American public ns
I ii becomes informed, will react against
Asia, just as it did
ters here see ua in better perspective
thnn we tle. Hut ns n matter of fact
the best Informed opinion here In
Wnshlngten Is agreed with thnt of the
Hrltlsh nnd French Journalists, who
have recently come here.
The unrear ever the consortium nnd
the llu Kttnncr bends Is the first big
burst of publicity nt the conference. The
Chinese representatives have get the
jump en everybody else. They novo
tired their ammunition before nny one
else. And they have shot nt one of tin
big issues of the conference.
There will be many slinllnr uses of
publicity during the gathering here.
The American press, with vast news
printing facilities, affords such nn op
pertunity for the public prtsontntlen of
questions as nevcr existed in any ether
International conference.
All of it will tilm te Influence Amer
ican public opinion regarding the Orient
nnd through American public opinion te
Influence the American delegates, or If
net the American dclcgntes, the Ameri
can Senate, ns the court of last resort.

This was accompanied by the statement
that the operator is fortunate whose margin
approximates 60 cents a ten. Only a few
exceed it, most of them make less and many
are today operating at a less.
A third advertisement set forth the actual
figures of an average cost mine, as follews: labor,
per ten, $3.92; materials, $1 .05; insurance, taxes,
etc, 58 cents; total, $5.55 a cost applying alike
te coal selling at the mine for $7.50 a ten or mere,
and te the small by-product sizes of coal selling as
low as $1.50 a ten.
As the average received by the producer for his
total tonnage was $6.15, and the cost $5.55, it was
again shown in this way that the average mine
owner's margin was about 60 cents.

All these facts relate te mine prices and mine
costs. They are the only factors in the situation
for which the producers are responsible.
Retail prices have net been discussed in these
talks with the public because the producers had
no first-hand knowledge of them, and no statement
they could make would cover all the factors gov
erning prices in different places.
Retail prices arc net the same in different
communities, because freight rates, local
conditions and dealers' costs vary gready.
The explanation of the difference between the
mine price and the retail price of anthracite can
be given by your coal dealer.
Ask him, for this explanation, and we believe a
frank and satisfactory reply will be forthcoming.
