Reduction in the retail prices of both anthracite and bituminous coal is expected by the United States Fuel Administration to result from its decision to make the prices to coal retailers the same, whether sold direct by the operators or through jobbers. At the present time the job-

her is permitted to add to tin 5 government price at the mine a commission of from 15 to 30 cents a ton. Under the new plan of the Fuel Administration that commission will be eliminated. but the price of coal at the mine will be increased slightly and the jobber will be required to look to the operator for his compensation. This increase, how-ever. will not equal the commission now- being charged by the jobber, and the retailer will be able to sell cheaper than he is now doing.

The five reels of this production are filled with situations that keep one in suspense until the last. Plashes of hum or and touches of pathos play upon the screen like light and shadow. Shirley Mason takes the part of Emily Thomas, the little girl around whom the political storm raws. William Wadsworth is the retired sea captain. Captain Cyrus Whittaker, under whose capable and honest direction Bayport’s complicated politics are straight ened out. Joseph Burke is the unscrupulous. grafting member of congress and the principlas are ably supported by a singularly well chosen cast.—At the Crystal Theatre tonight
