' Advertising rate furnished by request FRIDAY, JUNE 4, 1954. Trouble In The Coal Industry A significant economic development took place in Chicago recenwy wnen coal industry executives, representing half of the country's coal production, yarned the Federal Government about the seriousness of conditions among the country's coal miners. The want ing, coming .from industry executives and not jobless miners themselves, is significant. ; :'. " .' The executives warned the Admini stration that the coal industry is now experiencing a slump, of greater pro portions than any since the depression of the 1930's. The warning called at tention to the fact that 100,000 miners are now jobless, and urged the Ad ministration not to remain "blind" to the continuing closing of coal mines. -The coal industry executives believe ttie plight of the coal companies is closely connected with high imports of foreign residual oil. They also believe the Government , is unaware of the damage such imports are doing in the domestic coal industry. Coal industry executives are hitting the most vulnerable part of the pres ent Republican Administration's ar mor. The domestic economy under this Republican .. Administration is continuing to undergo a recessionary test and if a pickup is not observed by November, the Republicans stand to lose strength in Congress. Despite the great and continuing popularity of President Eisenhower, economies effected in Government, tax cts voted, and other popular achieve ments, the average citizen and hun dreds of thousands of jobless workers are included among them is highly sensitive to the economic trend, of the . day. " Reds On Run In Philippines President Ramon Magsaysay is achieving promising results in his fight against Communist guerillas in the Philippines. When the young, dy namic President took over the Philip pines last year, he appealed to all Communist ; Huks to surrender and support his administration. The Communists asked what terms Magsaysay offered, and he laid down strong and hard, terms. But he prom ised fair treatment, fair trials and par dons for all those found not guilty, and a plan to help set up converted Communists in a new life. The Communists rejected these hard terms and since that time Magsaysay and the Philippine Government have opened a dedicated offensive to wipe out the Communist guerillas complete ly by the end of June. The drive is achieving success. '; Recently the No. 1 leader of the Huks in the' Islands, Luis Taruc, sur rendered and he was sent to a stock ade to face the many charges which had been lodged against him. Never theless, he offered to appeal to his comrades to surrender to the Govern ment, and he admitted that the Phil ippine President was moving forward with an economic plan to meet the needs of the people. K This is a significant achievement and demonstrates what a program of force and energy can achieve against the Communists. The program must also include a major program to im prove the lot of the people and Mag saysay's program includes just that Magsaysay has proved once , again that the only method in dealing with Communist guerillas is through a policy of force and firmness. - s.l Weak measures, half-hearted pro grams of reform, and a lack of cour age in standing up to the Communist leaders has never yet eradicated Com ' munism in any guerilla-infested coun try. Magsaysay has never relented in warning the Communists they face trial and he has. never offered to par don their leaders. He has merely call ed on them to surrender, and promised fair trial but, at the same time, he has organized ' a military effort to wipe' them oat," and he is carrying it out with a thoroughness that is com mendable. That should he an example to 4her Far Eastern"'eTOt'''",ti" - Aa act of goodnesr is df itself an act -of happiness. No reward coming after the event can compare with the sweet reward that went with It Maurice Maeterlinck. I Ba'itaC::.a:a Washington Thanka to one of Ihe earliest conscription orders in North America, two National Guard units can trace their military origins to Oc tober,!, 1636. ,. : v ;:b'-.:,v.ui7.r .:.;-,u., ' The 101st Engineer Combat Battal ion of Medford, Massif and the -182nd Infantry of Charlestown Mass., lead the list of the 15 oldest battalion-size units in the U. S. Army. Their 317 year history derives from a general order of the Massachusetts Bay Col ony which drafted every man and boy, with the exception of "magistrates and ministers, to the defense of white settlers from Indian raiders. The American Indian' could be des cribed as the "father of the U. S. Army." The oldest units of our pres ent Army structure were organized in defense against the redskins. Since they began as militia, or "trained bands," all now are National Guard units. In addition to the two Massachu setts units, the 15 oldest, in order of their organization,, are: i; ' 176th tight " infantry, Richmond, Va. ("Virginia Blues"), 1652; 104th Infantry Regiment, Springfield, Mass., 1662; 102nd Infantry Regiment, New Haven, Conn., 1672; 169th Infantry Regiment, Hartford, Conn., 1672; Field Artillery Battalion, Stamford, Conn, 1672; 963rd Field Artillery Bat talion, Norwalk, Cenn., 1672; 201st Armored - Field Artillery Battalion, Fairmont, W.

'.'I.-' .r.;fy.f) Treasurer Of U. S. urges r; nOtoristsTo Consider Children One of the nation's greatest assets is its children, the Treasurer of the United States says. " Mrs. Ivy Baker Priest, speaking as a mother, points out that motor ve hicles kill m re children every year than any disease. Mrs. Priest, who is one of the judg es" of the 1954 Carol Lane Awards for Traffic Safety, quoted National Safety Council figures that 8,500 pedestrians were killed list year. "Of that total, almost a foi:rth were children under 14," she said "Spring means that the motorist must be doubly alert," Mrs. Priest pointed out. "Not only does spring bring more cars to streets and high ways, but it i also a period of great er outdoor play and activity by chil dren. Therefore, motorists should drive with extreme caution near schools, playgrounds, residential areas and other places where children may conere crate. "Always remember to expect the un-1 ed, Mrs. Finest warned, "watcn out for children suddenly darting into the street in pursuit of a ball, or for the youngster on a bicycle or roller skates. "Be mindful' of the fact that every child pedestrian is a human caution sign," she said, "and youH be doing your part to preserve our precious as setour children to enrich tomor row's world." Mrs. Priest has a long record of traffic safety activity. Prior to be coming Treasurer, of the United States, ' she served as vice-president J ana director oi tne women's division of the Utah Safety Council in her home state. She urged individual women as well as members of women's and parents' organizations to become active in traf fic safety in their communities. Such women are eligible to enter the 1954 Carol Lane Awards for Traffic Safe tyadministered by the National Safety Council through a grant of. the Shell Oil Co. which are the na tion's only awards to recognize the achievements of women in the field of accident prevention. j A $1,000 defense bond and a bronze statuette will go to first place winners in both the' Individual and group cater gone. xaree nonoraDie mention awards are presented in each eatesrory.

"The Rand McNally World Guide," which is a concise illustrated encyclopedia of world places arranged by countries and continents. More in teresting than a regular atlas or gaza teer, it is a comprehensive picture in narrative, pictures, and maps of the world today. The other new book is "A Still ness At Appomattox." An interpre tive History rather than a factual ac count of the last year of the Civil War, it has been reviewed and highly praised by literary critics as an out standing study of the dramatic last year of the war. One of the sublimest things in the world is plain truth. ' ":. Bulwer.
