MANY PALATIAL TRAINS AFFECTED BY SCHEDULE CUT Broadway Limited Is Among j Those to Be Taken Off as l\e- | suit of Fuel Shortage By Associated Press Chicago, Pec. 6.—Drastic curtail ment of passenger train service throughout the country, the eastern and southern regional directors tak [ ing virtually the same action as that I two days ago by the central, north | and southwestern directors, to-day had been ordered as a fuel conserva tion measure. As the strike of coal miners entered its sixth week, optimism, which some operators were said to feel, was not reflected in actual favorable developments re ported front the coal fields. I ' More Industries Close Additional industries to-day were closed or had given notice that operation would be suspended after to-day, while the coal-saving orders that already had put Chicago on a six-and-one-half hour business day and affected other cities of the cen tral west, north nnd southwest to a Josser degree, were extended to other places. At Chicago a six-hour-day beginning Monday was decreed and members of the regional coal com mittee predicted that a few / days' continuance of the miners' walkout would force a four-liour-day./ Few Miners Returning Only in isolated instances and in small groups were miners report ed to be resuming production. In the great central competitive lield and in others of the larger organized areas the miners generally main tained their nttitudo of remaining away from work until a larger wage increase than the fourteen per cent, decreed by the Federal Fuel Admin istration was forthcoming.

The reduction in the central, north and southwestern regions is effective Monday, in the southern Tuesday and in the eastern Wednesday. Many cities and towns in Ne braska, Montana and Western Kan sas still were virtually without coal, however, and substitutes were at a premium. Canadian coal shV v-ienis some what relieved the situation in the far northwest. New York Cuts OIY Heat , .

TRAINMEN GET TWO CONCESSIONS .May Wear Fabricoid Collars to Cut Laundry Bills; Liglitcr Coats j Passenger trainmen on the Pennsy , who took exceptions to a recent order eliminating soft collars as a part of the. uniform, will now be able to wear ; fabricoid collars. One complaint was that lineal collars were expensive and jone collar could be worn for one trip i only and tbat laundry bills were high. It was also claimed that to wear one weight of unifotm all the year around would mean suffering during the warmer months. An announcement yesterday follows: "Several concessions have been made by the division superintendents of the Pennsy to the uniformed train men and station employes witty ref erence to their uniforms and collars, ••'•'e!. will be appreciated by the em pi oyes. one thing they will be per mitted to wesr fabricoid collars which can be kept clean without being sent to tie- laundry end a saving can thus ie sheeted while during the period front June IS to September is. they < ill be allowed to wear light a lon.-a r.ots pr-vided 'hey are of uniform design and color. An order issued by Passenger " ralnmnster John Kcisor, of the Pitts burgh division with reference to col lars is as follows; •i ?J, ncp Mr rct> ent instructions pro hibiting blue uniformed employes from wearing soft collars, a sugges tion has been made that these em ployes may find it advantageous to use fabricoid collars. This Is offered rs nn economical suggestion In case the employes desire to take advantage of same." I Lighter touts AA ith reference to the lighter orfats | for warm weather Mr. Reiser says; "During the extreme warm weath | er of the past two seasons the privi lege of wearing light coats was I granted to trainmen. These garments ■ were not considered part of the stand ] ai d uniform. I "This privilege resulted in the ir i regular use of coats of inferior grnde land various kinds and the results I were far from satisfactory. In order [that these ItcrVit weight coats may lie uniform in th- service of 1920 and thereafter, black'coats of mohair with .standard buttons and ornuments are jto lie procured from the purchasing agent. The division of expense be tween employes and the railroad Is to .be on the present basts of serge uniform with 40 and f.O per cent., the use of this standard garment to be confined to extremely hot weather be tween June 15 and September 15. "Therefore, between these dates the trainmen will he permitted to Wear .black alpaca coats with standard but tons and ornaments. This privilege jis also granted stntion employes wearing uniforms similar to trein- I men." Aurand's Book Store, 925 8. 3d St., Harrisburg, Pa.
