...This idea was rooted in a statement in my Next Hundred Years- ''Hogs eat coal and enjoy it" (TIME, June 1). Hogs undoubtedly eat coal. Many a mid-western porker sees the black lumps of bituminous coal constantly before him supplied by his indulgent master. If munching effectively and with gusto is a mark of enjoyment, then the pigs actually enjoy this unusual foodstuff, apparently considerably more than the average American enjoys his daily slabs of charred bread at breakfast. I wish to point out, however, that enjoyment and digestion are not synonymous. In the case...
...Council issued last Janu ary the first of two orders commanding C. I. O. to disband. Miner Lewis impudently replied in March by offering to put up $500,000 if the A. F. of L. would put up $1,000,000 more to organize Steel along industrial lines. In effect, President Green agreed if Amalgamated would re spect craft organization.

And it is responsible for a dilemma in California's medical profession. At last week's convention of the California Medical Association in Coronado (across the bay from San Diego) there were the usual addresses on matters scientific, but the real muttons...
...dirge of hate directed at monopoly in all its forms, particularly the big-industry and labor-union privilege and the farmer privilege which the NRA and AAA represented. Ideas of this sort go at a premium. It may even be hoped--now that the Democratic Party has in effect defaulted upon its free-trade principles--that the high tariff mania and its favoritism to special groups may be modified in the interests of consistency and sound economics...
