Passlnr Pliaae of Readjustment
"Conditions in the bituminous coal
Industry, which have caused consumers
trouble in obtaining supplies and given
opportunity for speculative prices In
this commodity, are but a basting phase
of war readjustment," assarted J. D.
A. Merrow, vlce president of the Na
tional Ceal Association. He Insisted
nenemergency exists lq the bituminous
Industry te cal for federal control of
mines.
"We all understand perfectly well
that lack of transportation Is the basic
cause et the trouble,," the operators'
spokesman continued. "The remedy for
that difficulty is net regulation of coal
but Improvement et transportation
facilities. The railroads are making
vigorous efforts te bring that about.
"If the railroads arc given an oppor
tunity te recover from the ill effect
they suffered during the war'therc is
no doubt whatever they will furnish all
the transportation thin rftnntrv nnvl.
When that Is done people need have no
fear as te future sufficiency et their
coal supply or the reasonableness of
prices.
"There arc 10,000 bituminous coal
mines open throughout the country.
There is plenty et coal land available
long the railways In whleb 10,000
mere mines could be opened if they were
needed te supply this country, but they
are net needed,"
Transportation Only Need
The mines new open, equipped as they
are with machinery and manned with
the men who are there, can produce
100,000,000 tens mere coal every year
tliau this country can use and expert.
We need te have sufficient transports,
tien devoted te the movement of the out
put et these mines, and that is all that
U necessary te relieve conditions such
as these of the last six months.
"We need natlence and hard, com
men sense In the cxlatipg condition and
net theoretical socialistic governmental
regulation," Mr. Merrow maintained.
"If business men are ilven an dnner-
tunlty te work out these problems they
win emerge successfully from tne eco
nomic chaos war brought upon thaceun
try."
He added, with some bitterness, that
every new and then Seme "Intellectual
giant" (Uncovers the United Btatea ha
produced about 60,000,000 mere tens
et coal this year up te date than last
year, whereas we are new 7,000,000
tens behind production for the eeual
period of 1017 and 42,000,000 tens be
hind 1018. Last year's production fell
40,000,000 tens short of requirements.
It Is estimated the country will require
from 050,000,000 te 505,000,000 tens
of soft coal this year.

The hostile movement Is claimed te

Apprehension concerning a few
Americans in Urga has been allayed
by the Chinese commander's assurance
of their safety under the protection of
special-detailed troops.

Bosten, Nev. 12. The appearance
at the annual sessions of the National
Orange yesterday of Its monthly mnga
tine with two pages blank waa ex
plained at a meeting of the beard of
managers b ythe editor, Charles M.
Gardner, former master of the Massa

printers for mere pay. The editor said
the type for these two pages had been set
but net locked before the strike started,
nhd that when he and his foreman locked
up the pages the stercetypcrs refused te
handle them because of his own non
union labor. Several hundred copies
of the magaslne then were printed with
the two pages blank, and it was voted
by the beard of managers yentcrday te
print the full circulation of CO. 000 in
this way, with an explanation later of
the cause.
