Does King Coal Need a Guardian? HOULD the great coal industry of the country be placed under some Government regulatory body, for instance, one similar to the Interstate Commerce Commission? What steps should be taken to control this vital industry in the better interests of the nation at large? How can the re- curring crises that have embattled those who own and those who work the mines be avoided and a greater conservation of the country’s fuel resources be realized? These are a few highlights of the coal problem, now brought again to the fore by the nation-wide miners’ strike, that are discussed forcefully and in terms of the human factors involved, in an article by Evan J. David in Leslie’s Weekly for May 13. Theodore Waters contributes to this issue another installment of “Brokers and Breakers,’’ his notable expose of how stock swindlers fleece the unsuspecting. The recent sale of a postage stamp for the world’s record price prompts us to ask: Do you collect stamps? If you do, and even if you dan’t, ‘‘Fortunes in Scraps of Paper,’’ by Charles Phelps Cushing, will reveal to you fascinating episodes in philatelic romance. Also, among the other features in Leslie’s for May 13 is a fresh and enthralling story of the adventures of the great Black Pearl by Atreus von Schrader. These are a few of the features in this number which contains, besides, the Radio Department, the Motor Department, the Investment Bureau, worth-while editorials by Samuel Hopkins Adams, and plenty of the kind of pictures you like to see.
