This price is a result of the recent “motfrning holiday’* which culminated (we use this word advisedly) in Mr. Lewis getting 44'/jc per hour raise for his miners, PLUS 10c per ton “royalty” or about $1,000,- 000.00 a year for his U fu#d,” PLUS an agreement with the operators to nullify the Taft-Hartley Act by agree ing to disregard the act in any dealings with Mr. Lewis (so we understand). ALSO, WE UNDERSTAND that coal will be very scarce again this winter—certainly the first half of the winter. This is due jmrtly io lQgL tonnage during strike, and partly to an unprecedented tonnage being EXPORT ED to Europe. Our advice is that you place your order with your favorite dealer at once and get on the safe side. C-W S GUANO CO., INC Phone 62 Plenty Busy These days? Then don’t even try to ^et to the bank!
