PRODUCTION OF ML FIRST IN HTML PLAN Government Takes Steps to Secure Fuel in Short Order. PROFITEERING IS TABOOED Secretary Hoover Authorized to Deny Car Service to Offenders. By ROBERT J. BE\DER, l nited .Veic* Staff Correspondent. WASHINGTON. July 25.—Immediate steps for acquiring a maximum production'of coal from non-union and strip mines, adequate distribution of the supply through Government control of coal cars and preventives against protit eering, have been effected by the Administration. Secretary Hoover will be virtual fuel dictator. The big thing now, officials say, is obtaining and distributing a maximum production of non-union coal at fair prices. Details of Program Details of the * Government's proare these: Formation of associations under Hoover’s personal direction, whose combined purposes will be to produce coal, pool it and stop profiteering. 2. Application to the Interstate Commerce Commission for rules governing car distribution during the shortage so that available equipment can be placed at those mines affording the greatest opportunity of service and willing to charge no more than a fair price. 3. Favored treatment for those mines cooperating on a fair price basis by refusing to divert cars to those operators who attempt to profiteer during the emergency. Hoover Price Authority Hoover will determine what constitutes a fair price for fuel at the mines and his will be the authority to serve or cut off car supplies at the different mines, according as to whether the operators cooperate with him on a fair price basis or attempt to profiteer. In passing legal opinion on Hoovers proposal, Daugherty revealed the Administration’s concern over the dangers confronting the nation through the waning fuel harvest. Numerous industries “threatened with paralysis.” cities “left in darkness" because of suspended lighting plants, “misery, suffering, distress and even famine anji death” took their part in the picture Daugherty painted of the outlook. Here is the tentative plan nowunder discussion which wil be submitted back to Daugherty for final •prova! and to all parties concerned its administration: Personnel of Committee. 1. A committee in Washington, to be appointed by the Fresident. or representatives of the Department of Commerce, the interstate commerce commission, the Department of Justice and the Department of the Interior, to he designated the presidential committee. This committee to have general supervision and authority. "2 The administrative committee, comprising representatives of the preisdential committee together with representatives of operators, representatives of the railways, and, where necessary. representatives of the larger consuming groups. “3. The presidential committee will establish a representative in each coal producing district. Committee of Operators “4 The presidential committee will appoint a committee of operators in each district to be nominated by the District Operators’ Association or independent operators (in case of failure of the operators to take sucn action the presidential committee may appoint such operators as they see fit on such committee!. The members of these district committees may be changed as determined upon by the presidential committee. ”5. The presidential committee will cooperate with the interstate commerce commission in carrying out preferential orders JJA'6. The governmental representts in the districts with the cooperation of the district committees shall advise the agencies of the interstate commerce commission as to local -ar movement. “7. Vhe operators will proceed with

their usual business until affected by preference orders. ”8. District committees under authority of the presidential committee will recommend allotment of cars. “9. When the operators demand suitable guarantees shall be given for payment by persons buying under priority orders. “10. The'railroads will'be requested to appoint a representative to deal with purchases of railway fuel. “11. The basis of prices agreed upon between the operators and the Secre tarv of Commerce on June 1 are to be maintained, except where varied by the presidential committee, and this same basis of price determination shall be applied to all districts which are so far no cooperating.” The whole of the above, Hoover ex- j plained, is tentative.

‘HENRY AND ME’ SHOW OUR DEVOTION, FORGIVING ALL

Mrs. Allen and her son, William, Jr., were present. Allen and White looked at each other sheepishly and then, grasped hands with old-time fervor. “My friend, Mr. White," Allen began, “when I compare that with some of my conduct toward you the last week,” 'and the Governor broke off with a hearty laugh. “It put him in the class of selfsacrificing martyrs,” Allen said, referring to “Bill.” “The only time Bill White is dangerous is when he sits down before a double-action typewriter at a time like this and writes out of his emotions. “We had to single Bill out and arrest him because he is a leader. So his arrest is a great compliment to him.” Referring to the shopmen’s strike and the railroad labor board, Alien declared the Federal body had become “an expensive debating society.”
