Editorial Review on Coal Strike and Lewis's Tactics

The piece argues John Lewis faces limited bargaining power as coal supply and stockpiles rise.

Better Businessmen Modern farming and capital

An analysis from J W Fanning of the Centreia College of Agriculture argues farming now requires about 80 to 180 percent more capital for a mid size plot due to higher land and equipment costs and increased working capital.

The column also covers the final Community Concert at Woodrow Wilson High School featuring Carnellio Tal and Boek-Jevans, praising local cultural efforts and thanking the Local Community Concert Association for its leadership and new campaign support.

Liquor Firms List Shows Resident Reps Debate in WV

West Virginia Liquor Commission chairman Charles H. Green released a list of 82 vendors supplying the 126 state stores and 18 agencies. Of these, 34 had resident representatives, 33 had none, and several firms were represented by multiple people. Green says no law requires resident reps, but the arrangement aids price and information exchange to keep West Virginia competitive with other states. Labor leader George J. Titler charged the administration with bribing editors via liquor accounts and named four journalists tied to distilleries or wineries, including Ned Smith of the Fairmont Times. The report also notes active Democratic ties among several representatives and lists sales totals for major firms.
