Editorial Paragraphs

February 3, 1926 issue

This article focuses on political and social developments. The anthracite coal business is controlled by perhaps the most odious monopoly that ever arose among a free people. This trust maintains its power by the possession of two privileges; it has acquired control or ownership of 98 per cent of all the anthracite coal in Pennsylvania, which means the country. Thomas W. Lamont and Otto H. Kahn are often to be found enlisted in undertakings that call for vision and idealism. Hence one is amazed at the crass materialism of their defense of political leader Benito Mussolini before the Foreign Policy Association, or rather their worship of certain of his achievements.
