I 4v t t!. t v-'4 v . heyt- L THE United States Fuel Administration in Philadelphia is very deeply interested in seeing to it that your home has enough coal for the winter. Our soldiers cannot win the war unless the industries are behind them, and the industries cannot supply the army if the people, who make the industries go, are cold in their homes. Philadelphia has the most complete organization of any city in the country for carrying out the square deal in coal distribution. The Fuel Distribution Bureau was established by Francis A. Lewis, Fuel Administrator of Philadelphia, for this sole purpose. Employing something like forty persons, it keeps upon its records every retail coal transac tion which takes place within the city of Philadelphia. The business of this bureau is to help everybody get enough coal by preventing a few people from getting too much. This is the only square deal. It is the coal dealer's first duty these days to co-operate with this bureau not only in the letter of its instructions, but in the full spirit of the square deal. It was in this spirit that we in this company pledged ourselves to take not one order more than we were confi dent we could deliver. And in that spirit likewise, we laid down for ourselves this task: To deliver by October 15th the full two-thirds per mitted by the Fuel Administration of every order for winter's coal which has so far been placed with us.
