COAL SHORTAGE ON WAY; GOH. SAYS BUY NOW

May Be Repetition of 1917-18 Conditions Next Winter Says Geological Survey. MINES IDLE WITHOUT ORDERS. Those Who Delay Ordering Longer May Not Get Their Fuel Later On. The United States Geological Survey announces from Washington the probability of another general coal shortage next fall and winter. The announcement Is based, the Survey states, upon a nation-wide study of conditions in the bituminous field. Unless steps are taken at once, the Survey says, to place the mines upon a Jjasis of increased production there is every prospect of a repetition to some degree of the situation that prevailed in the United States during the winter of 1917-18. The only way production can be stimulated at the present time, it is said, is by placing orders with the mines for coal which will be needed later on. “Production during the first five months of the year,” reads the statement, “fell 57,292,000 net tons, or approximately 25% below production during the first five months of 1918. Mines are producing coal now at the rate pf from 8,000,000 to 8,500,000 tons a week. An averr age output of 10,700,000 tons a week must be maintained from June 1 to January 1 next if the country’s estimated needs of 500,000,000 tons this year are to be met.” Evil of Delayed Order*. At no time during this year has the rate of production approached the required tonnage. The tendency on the part of buyers to hold off placing their orders is lirfalting production, Us the mines cannot store coal at the point of production, and when the rush of orders for the winter’s needs comes next fall there is grave danger that the mines, with depleted labor forces and the probability of less adequate transportation, will be unable to meet the demands. The result of such a situation would be an insufficient supply for the requirements of domestic consumers, public utilities and Industrial users generally. i “It is believed that requirements for this year,” reads a Survey statement to Fuel Administrator Garfield, “will be about 530,000,000 tons of bituminous coal, of which approximately 30,000,000 tons have been used from stocks accumulated last year, leaving 500,000,000 tons to be produced. Of this 500,000,000 tons 178,000,000 tons were produced during the first five months, leaving 322,000,000 tons to be produced in the remaining 30 weeks, or an average of 10,700,000 tons a week. “Thus far this year production has been at the rate of 8,200,000 tons a week. In 1918 production was at the rate of 11,300,000 tons a week. “This production will be difficult of accomplishment. The capacity of operating mines at the present time with labor now on the payroll is about 10% lower than it was last year. This deficiency may be made up in part or wholly if the mines have orders sufficient to run them five or six days a week unless the threatened exodus of foreign-born labor occurs. May Be Car Shortage. “Present wage agrements between operators and miners expire with the proclamation of peace by the President A suspension of mining operations while a new wage agreement is being negotiated would, of course, seriously interfere with the production of coal and If it -should occur during the fall would cause a panic among buyers and consumers of coal.” There is no use in gambling upon this or any other contingency, fuel administration officials say. The firm or individual who wants to be sure of an adequate coal supply next winter can be certain by buying coal now. There is no other way such assurance can be obtained. Transportation also promises to be a limiting factor if the flood tide of demand comes at a time when the country’s record crops are being carried. In some districts it would appear certain that, notwithstanding the utmost endeavors of the Railroad Administration and the Utilization of its experience last fall, car shortage will be a cause limiting butimlnous coal production, and for that reason it Is problematical wheMier the expected production of 500,000,000 tons can be attained this year. Shortage of labor already is a factor that Is cutting down the output In some coal producing sections, according to the Survey’s report. The operators report that from 36,000 to 40.000 foreign-born miners expect to return to Europe as soon as they can get passports and that many have already returned. If continued this movement will be capable of producing but one result —a reduction of the amount of coal mined in districts where the mine labor Is largely foreign-born, and there are many such districts. He who needs coa! should hesitate no longer. Now is the time to buy touL

VACATION SAVINGS AND THRIFT WEEK

Indiana W. S. S. Workers Putting Into Effect a Practical Educational Campaign. The War Savings campaign is proceeding in Indiana with renewed energy. To get into every household suggestions that will be helpful in wise spending and sane saving the War Savlngs Organisation for Indiana is conducting a vacation savings campaign and making preparations for “Thrift Week,” beginning June 23. “Thrift Week” will not be a spectacular or coercive “drive” such as marked the activities of the War Savings Organization last year when the raising of a certain sum of money was the chief objective. It will be a house-to-house canvass under the direction of the county chairman in each county, with a view to educating the citizens of Indiana in the practice of thrift. The canvass includes: ' (1) Obtaining pledges for the regular purchase, if possible, of Thrift and War Savings stamps during, the balance of the year. -' (b) Putting into every household a small blank record sheet for household expenses, accompanied by an order card through which those desiring I to establish the budget system in the home may obtain complete forms and instructions. I (c) Distribution of War Savings lit-" erature. 1 (d) Distribution of new War Savings buttons to all signing pledge cards. The vacation Savings campaign began with the closing of the schools. It Includes: (a) Taking of pledges for the saving by pupils of 10 per cent or more of their earnings or allowances during the vacation period, for investment in Thrift or War Savings stamps weekly, monthly or upon the pupil’s return to school in the Bill. (b) Making It a point to know the opportunities for spare-time employment open to boys and girls, and encouraging them to take advantage of such opportunities. If the pupils can earn money during the vacation period It naturally follows that they will have money for saving and investing. (c) Obtaining reports on the success ,of the vacation Savings plan soon after the beginning of the fall term ■ of school. I The Indiana Organization has just finished a drive for the establishment of War Savings and Thrift stamp agencies “wherever money passes over the counter." Secretary of the Treasury Glass believes the only compulsion In the purchase of War Savings Stamps should be self-applied, but it is necessary to facilitate the practice of thrift. The drive for agencies has made It easier for savers to Invest their savings. By shortening the distance between the inclination to save and the actual purchase of a Thrift or War Savings Stamp—through the establishment of many agencies—the War Savings Organization expects to head , off many temptations to spend foolishly.

A BTITCH IN TIME.

SAYS KEEP DOLLARS GROWING.

Indianapolis, Ind., June —-“Keep the Dollars Growing,” is the Treasury Department’s slogan, according to Robert E. Springsteen, director of the Indiana War Savings Committee. Mr. Springsteen’s committee is urging citizens of Indiana to convert the coupons of their Liberty Bonds into War Savings Stamps. In this manner the bond holder Is able to keep his dollars growing. . “June 15 is again pay day In the United States,” said Mr. Springsteen. “On that day Uncle Sam owes his people $86,000,658.00 in interest on the first Liberty Loan. The interest Coupon can be exchanged at the post office or almost any bank for War Savings Stamps, which pay 4 per cent compounded quarterly. “Everybody who can afford it (and everybody ought to be able to save) should reinvest money in the stamps. They are a good investment and they help float government expenses.”

-• (With Apologies to Kipling.) It ain't the tens nor fifties You earn from day to day Nor yet the fives or two-spots That you gather on the way; It Ain’t the million billionaire Nor the nation as a whole. But the nickles and the pennies From each patriotic soul.

CALLS THRIFT GOOD FOR ALL BUSINESS

R. E. Springsteen, W. S. S. Director for Indiana Outlines State Campaign for Present Year. Indianapolis, Ind„ June —Thrift is not only good business for business, but is good business for every city and every county in Indiana. This is to be the text of the 1919 campaign for War Savings stamps sales in Indiana, according to State Director Robert E. Springsteen. “We are able to show, from results obtained here in the state last year,” said Mr. Springsteen, “just how the thrift campaigns work out for cities and counties, as well as for individuals. These campaigns help not only individuals, but whole communities. “Marion county’s savings banks and trust companies last year Increased their deposits almost two million dollars. These deposits, representing savings in the main, were made despite the fact that Marion copnty subscribed vast amounts to the Liberty loans and bought large quantities of Thrift stamps. What is true of Marion county is true of the other counties. “These added deposits increase the business strength of the community. It was the savings habit, embodied in the War Savings stamp idea, that produced the Increase, and wd expect to hammer this idea home all over the state.” Mr. Springsteen called attention to the record of Jackson county, as described in the Columbus, Ind., Ledger. The Ledger, editorially, said in a recent issue: “The thrift that enabled the country to buy the stamps and bonds is now going ahead to keep the country on a stable business basis. People of the United States did not content themselves with buying the billions In government securities. They added to their bank deposits as well, with the result that now, after two years of war conditions, the country has more money on deposit in banks than ever before. —This is true of the nation, the state and Bartholomew county. “Jackson county, our neighbor on the south, is a good example. With 125 War Savings societies busy putting over government securities in the amount of some four million dollars, the county increased its savings bank deposits from approximately $1,800,000 at the beginning of the war, to some $8,800,000 at present. These added savings will MAKE BUSINESS for Jackson county.”

WISE SPENDING THRIFT PLAN.

Charles F. Coffin, the Insurance man, and president of the Indianapolis chamber of commerce says: “Thrift means wise spelling, as contrasted with hoarding. Thrift means the avoidance of waste; it means' intelligent savings and safe investment. That is why the business world welcomes the national, state and local campaigns for the promotion of thrift with the W, S, S. used to form object lessons. “Every alert business man agrees that thrifty communities afford him his best market. Every advertising man asks for no better audience than people who, having money in hand or possessing good credit, spend, thoughtfully. Merchants nowadays work with a view not only to today’s sales, but to the sales of tomorrow, next week and next year. The day when the merchant was glad to take away from a family its entire pay envelope on pay day is past, because the merchant wants business every day Instead of only on pay days. “Business men expect to find a sound reaction on their sales campaigns, in the government’s savings campaign. This reaction should be thoroughly wholesome. They may be counted upon therefore, to do all they can to assist agencies working with the government for the promotion of thrift.”

How the Money Grows.

The one who can save $5 a week and invest at 4 per cent can count up sl, 432 as his very own in five years, and will have 50 cents over to celebrate on. In 20 years your $5 weekly will make $7,877. This will give you a yearly in come of $3lB. —Bolton Hall.

Sane Spending la Saving.

The industrious man works hard and saves hard; the miser skimps and hoards; but the man of thrift earm largely, plans carefully, manages eco nominally, saves consistently and in vests wisely.—Bolton Hall.

GROWING UP.

AS WAR MEMENTO

Public Square of Arras Is to Be Preserved. Just as War Left It, It Will Serve to Remind the World That Here the Marauding Huna Were Checked. In the Little Place of Arras, where once stood the Hotel de Ville, with its belfry apd its peal of bells, led by La Joyeuse, is today a notice board in English. It says that this place is to be pressed in its ruin as war has left Other places will be rebuilt again, and will forget, but this Little Place will remain empty, and ope day Arras will be more proud of that emptiness and of those few broken stones than are other towns of the most beautiful things that they possess. For so Arras will remain always, as it is today one of the rocks visible on which the great waters of invasion broke and surged and broke again, but could flow no farther. There they were held. There In the center of Arras you come suddenly today on the dark line of their highest tide. Elsewhere, across the open country, you come more gradually in the land of war, by roads where troops move, by fields where are lines and lines of brown and white trenches, ready but never used; by empty villages, with here and there a house broken; and so at last into the great No Man’s land of France, uninhabited, uninhabitable, where armies fought and fought again, until all is destroyed and men live a gypsy life by the roadside. But in Arras you turn a corner of one of the little streets and it is as if a window had opened suddenly and you looked out on war. For three years one could only enter Arras from the west, by the road from Doullens through the Amiens gate or by the road from St. Pol past Dead Man’s corner, where nightly the reliefs, coming up, were shelled. Beside 'both these roads the trees stand, and the fields are tilled and there are-woods across the hills. You enter Arras today —through —a country unchanged by war. The change is not yet. It is a silent town. Its houses, stand, though scarcely one is quite whole. Their shutters are closed--their broken faces boarded up. The town is like a man that sleeps after long suffering. -So you pass through cobbled streets, very gray, clean, silent streets, between those exhausted houses, going down the Rue St. Aubert and by the white hospital with Its green vine leaves. Then you turn up other little streets, with their narrow sky above them and come, very suddenly, on an open lane with banks on either side, where nettles and coltsfoot and loosestrife grow. But this that looks like a country lane is cobbled, and its banks are heaps of brick. It is as you enter this lane that yon are conscious of something more unexpected and more awful than any ruined and broken things—of an enormous emptiness in the middle of that town of tall houses and narrow streets. * When the years have passed and all the country to the east of Arras has long been made whole; when the trees grow again beside the Cam bral and the Bapaume roads and there are cottages once more In Beaurains and Remy and Vls-en-Artois, there will still be that sudden emptiness beneath the sky among the narrow streets of Arras. Standing there, men will remember that once one >could come into Arras only from the west. They will think of it then as of one of those towns, now far inland and surrounded by quick fields, which once were on the seashore. They will look at that gray ruin of the town hall as at the ruins of a rock where once the storms beat.

It Still Held Good.

George Ade was talking about the high cost of living at Palm Beach. He said: “While a Palm Beach barber was shaving me one day, I asked him if he knew the significance of the red and white striped pole outside his shop. “*I do, sir,’ the barber answered. •That pole dates from the days when barbers were also surgeons. It means that the barber bleeds his customers.’ “Bo saying, the man handed me a check for 65 cents. _—_. ; “‘Well, welir said I. ‘Sixty-five cents for a shave, eh? Whatever you do, my friend, don’t take down your pole.’”
