THLRsFaY^UGUST 16, 1923 "" the trouble breeder (By Wickes Winiboldt) Not long ago a New Jersey war den refused to admit to jail a man who had been sentenced because a3 a previous inmate he had had a ver> disturbing influence on the other prisoners. I have heard lots of trouble breed ers and while I have thought jail would be a good place to put them, yet it never occurred to me before that this would not be fair to the other prisoners. We all know trouble breeders. They are to be found among both sexes and they are one of the great est menaces to the harmonious rela tions of mankind. 1 do not know whether it is a form of insanity or whether it is a weakness or just pure cussedness, but the main ob ject of the trouble breeder is to stir up strife, discord and discont^d, wherever he or she may be located. One young woman I have in mind. S) e is a charming conversationalist. She is good to look at. She has un failing good humor. And she is alto gether delightful to meet, but look out for her. She is the kind that comes to you and says laughingly, “So and so is the funniest person I ever ipet. in joy life. Tie does get off the Cutest {Jiings. Ffe just said that when you walk each foot says to the other, ‘You let me by this time and I will let you by next time."’ Then I know a young man. He comes to you as your friend and de fender. He is very angry at a cer tain person who has just said you are so lazy the only reason you are walking around is to save funeral ex penses. then there is the individual wno comes to you wearing a judicial mein an dtells you what someone has said about you because he thinks you ought to know it. Again we have the person who never says anything you can lay hold of but resorts to vague and dis turbing suggestions. He says, “I would be careful what I say before her,” or “Don’t depend upon him too much as a friend.” Then there is the twister who takes some innocent, remark of your# and distorts it until you would not recognize it and passes it on to some one wltb does not speak next time to you meet. They work in nil kinds of ways— these people do. There is the one who comes to you and gets your confidence and who then uses this confidence to spread poison. This person will tell you with the most confidential air what he thinks about all Uie disagreeable things he picks out in some absent per son’s character—traits which you know are there. He will ask you if you have noticed them. Perhaps hav ing a*pr*de in your kee'mlfess of per cept*“-^t>u will admit that you have noticed these things—then he trots away and says you have said to him all the things he said about you. I tell my acquaintances that when an uncomplimentary remark is re peated to me I consider the repeater is the real insulter. The person who said it originally did not intend me to hear it. He was just blowing off steam. Perhaps he had indigestion and was mad at somebody. He might think a good deal of me and would net hurt my feelings yet on some impulse when I was not present he would rantt, out about something I bed done he did not like. But he would not have said it to me for any hing in the world. Not because he as afraid, but because _he did not rish to offend me. Therefore I con der the onfe who carries the tale is >e reaT offender end is the one to horn any resentment should be djf HE GAZETTE IN EVERY HOME BREAK CHEST COLDS WITH BED PEPPER Ease your tight, aching chest.

BACK-FIRING -iw'TO SETS MACON, GA., ON ITS EARS Macon, Ga., August 16 —People of Macon were thrown into a panic shortly before 2 oclock this moaning when a racing automobile, with broken muffler backfiring with the rapidity of a machine gun, circled the camptig of Mercer University. The backfirings sounded like a bat tie. It was close to the scene of the recent. kidnappings and whippings and Macon people being in a nervous state, expecting almost 'anything feared for the worst. Trio Of Nationally Known Men Analyze Evils Of Coal Industry; Stress Need For Stable Labor I- «)IK J> .IMJllULiHiMmiHBMBMHl COL. OUT D. GOFF Dr. Charles W. Eliot, president emeritus of Harvard; Colonel Henry L. Stimson, former Secretary of War, and Colonel Guy D. Golf, former Assistant Attorney General of the U pi ted States, are among the men to whom the National Coal As sociation, in an aggressive move ment to stabilize the bituminous coal industry and increase its value to the public, has applied for advice. Dr. Eliot in a comprehensive let ter addressed to the organization’s annual convention at Atlantic City, stressed the importance of arbitra tion of disputes by non-partisan agencies, a tenet to which operators claim they have long held. Dr. Eliot advocated the incorporation of all unions that relate to the coal industry. COL. HENRY L. STIMSON "In the public interest,” he wrote, “it is' inexpedient that these seeret societies, which, collect large sums, of money from their members, and use all their resources to support strikes, however violent, should con tinue to be exempt from the usual legal processes to prevent violations of contract and enforce payment of damages.” Colonel Stimson stressed the need of constructive leadership and uni fied front in self organization and self discipline in the public’s in terest. Colonel Goff emphasized the im portance of basic considerations in the coal labor problem to the whole problem of. American social and eco nomic development. An attempt is being made, he declared, to change DR. CHARLES W. BLIOT the form of American trade unions into industrial unions u wedge toward compellfng the mT. jority in America, or a militant and effective minority, to accept the doctrine of communism. Investigations conducted by the Bituminous Operators’ Special Com* mittee, appointed to cooperate with | the United States Coal Commission,. have found that labor is one of the principal factors of the cost of coal at the mine, amounting to 68.7 per cent of the total. The constant interruption of the coal supply by nation-wide strikes, made possible by a growing monopolistic power on the part of the United Mine Work ers of America; is given as the chief deterrent to a regular supply of coal at satisfactory prices.
