Critical Coal Condition
Due to Labor Shortage
THE last reports of the United States Geological Sur
vey indicate that the average daily production of
coal is running considerably behind the production
of last year. We cannot see any possibility of a sur
plus of coal, for the following reasons:
During the early part of the year, when
the mines were only running a small part of
their capacity, many laborers left the field
and went into other lines of industrial activ
ities. A great many others, since the sign
ing of the armistice, have secured passports
to return to European countries and the
total number of coal miners who have left
our shores is estimated at about 40,000, with
the number increasing every day.
It is next to impossible to get native
American labor to work in anthracite coal
mines. With thousands of coal miners
leaving monthly, who will produce coal for
us next winter, when the demand becomes
insistent?
The outlook is not cheerful, particularly when it is re
membered that there is more than likely to be car short
age during the crop-moving period.
The next advance in coal prices will be in September.
No one knows how many more advances will be put into
effect before April, 1920.
What are you going to do when you need
coal next winter and cannot get a supply?

WILL SURVEY
TIMBER SUPPLY
Take Step Toward Conserving
Pulp Wood Used in Manu
facturing News Print
By Associated Press.
Washington, Aug. 23.—As a step
toward conserving the decreasing
supply of American pulp wood used
In the manufacture of news print
paper, Senator Watson, Republican,
Indiana, to-day introduced 4 reso
lution authorizing the Secretary of
Agriculture to make a survey and
preliminary investigation of the na
tion's available pulp wood timber
supply. The Secretary also would
be directed to make recommenda
tions for pulp wood utilization. The
| sum of 8100,000 is asked to carry
I on the survey and investigation.
"Two thirds of the news nrint
] paper used by American newspa
pers," he said, "is imported or is
I manufactured from wood or pulp
j imported from Canada. One-third
t is made in the United States from
I wood grown in the United States,
j The former proportion is steadily
I increasing, the latter is steadily de
i creasing."
"Nearly all of the American news
print manufacturing industry is lo
cated in the Northeastern States—
half of it in New York," he con
tinued. "But in the Pacific North
west—Washington, Oregon and part
of California—and the inland em
pire of Montana and
Northern Idaho are "great forests
that have been no more than
touched by the few pulp mills in
that section of the country."
Enormous Supply In Alaska
He said that in Alaska are enor
mous areas of forests, the annual
growth of which would supply pulp
for half of the news print paper
used in the United States, but no
pulp mills are there.
He warned that American news
papers are being more and more
dependent upon foreign sources for
the raw material from which news
print paper is made; the raw ma
terial is being exhausted in the sec
tion where the domestic industry is
concentrated and mills are moving
from this country to Canada, while
at the time the United States con
tains forest resources in the north
west and Alaska that promise abun
dant. supply for many years, and
indefinitely under proper conserva
tion if the industry can be built up
in these regions.
The importance of a permanent
domestic news print industry was
emphasized. Hp also recommended
that the forest service of the De
partment of Agriculture be encour
aged in its work to present Amer
ican newspapers from becoming to
tally dependent upon a foreign sup
ply. To stimulate American pro
duction, he said, the following gov
ernmental policy should be car
ried out:
An immediate and adequate gov
ernmental survey of American re
sources in this field.
Immediate steps to bring about
the practice of forestry and the con
servation of forests in the pulp pro
ducing regions, to the end that the
annual inroads upon the forests will
be lessened and eventually will be
no more than equal to the annual
growth.
Development as soon as practi
cable of the Industry In the north
west and in Alaska.
