The miners who were promised Utopia by the advocates of socialization have become dissatisfied and restive in the face of low pay and relatively poor working conditions. And so, inevitably, England and Europe have had to turn to America for supplies. This is an interesting and important illustration of the difference between socialized or regimented industry, and free, competitive industry. Our mines lead those of all other nations in every way production methods, wages paid to miners, safety, and so on. Production is now at an extremely high level and, if necessary, it can be increased. Once again, free enterprise is doing the big jobs. Jsun-Qtvo- cata NIWSPASIft, ON COVISAOC.

COAL TO NEWCASTLE The United States exported more than to 26 nations in Europe, Asia and South America in the single month of February. Great Britain was the largest foreign purchaser. It is authoritatively forecast that during the next few years exports of coal will continue to run at a substantial level. This is indicative of the marked changes that have taken place in the world coal situation. At one time, England was the biggest exporter, and for a great many years her production was far in excess of her own domestic needs. But now a scarcity of coal is a major headache in England, so she, in company with many other nations, looks to Americas mines to make up the lack. Various factors have been responsible for this. And one of the most important has been the socialization in whole or part of the coal industry in England and much of Europe. The production goals which were set by the government bureaus in charge of coal have not been met. Despite some improvement, production methods are still ob 2,000,000 tons of soft coal of Tbo Sum omd Tbt The annual poppy drive conducted in Price Saturday by the American Legion auxiliary was a success, the sum of $106 being 1000 taken in.

Despite the general pessimistic attitude of a great many here as to our present and future economic situation, people seem to still be buying automobiles, and new ones, too. Only one business house of any stability has failed in years ; we cannot find a vacant business building in a favorable location, and the streets are parked solid with cars almost every day, and night. It all makes us wonder just how much of the moanin is the real McCoy! . Ntwr-Advo- cit According to Secretary William H. Toy, the request of the Price Chamber of Commerce for exhibits to be placed in the new headquarters of the organization, is meeting with eager response, citizens of Green River and Moab, who were asked to supply an exhibit of agricultural products of that section, announce that they will furnish a complete display.

An exhibit of wool produced in this section will be secured, and the Carbon-Eme- ry Fish and Game Protective association will be asked for a display of animal and bird life in Carbon county. An effort will be made to secure a model of a tipple to be displayed in connection with the model of a coal camp.
