MICHIGAN, INDIANA, AND OHIO MAY KICK ON GOAL PRIORITIES

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 10. E. I. Lewis, chairman of the public service commission, has received an invitation from the public utilities commission of Ohio to participate in a conference with representatives of the 'Ohio and Michigan commissions concerning the coal situation in the three states. The meeting is to be held in the offices of the Ohio commission, Columbus, Wednesday, Sept. 15. The purpose of the conference, as explained by the Ohio commission, la to formulate a protest to the interstate commerce commission against existing priority orders . which are alleged to discriminate against this section of the country. The Northwest and New England . districts . are assured almost a 100 per cent coal supply under the orders. of the Federal commission, it is charged. .To Confer; With Eachbach. M.' Lewis said that he would take up the matter of Indiana's representation at the conference with Jesse E. Eschbach, chairman of the food and fuel commission." He said that the state will bCrepresented by members of the public service commission, the coal commission, or both. The letter of the Ohio commission, a duplicate of which was sent to the Michigan public utilities commission, follows in part: "A cursory survey of coal conditions in Ohio today presents the following alarming situation: "As of Oct. 1, heretofore there has generally been 70 per cent of the winter's requirements in the bins of the Ohio consumers. Today, there is, generally less than 25 per cent and, in some localities, less than 10 per cent of this coal on hand. These figures are cited as the result of a general survey of dealers's yards and books. "We assume that a similar situation exists In your states. "This situation is undoubtedly due to the presently effective priority orders of the interstate commerce commission, favoring the movement of coal loaded for railroad fuel, public

utilities, the Northwest and New Eng

land. ... "It does not seem proper to us that the people of the Northwest and New England should be assured of a substantial 100 per cent coal supply at a relatively low price, while the. people throughout this section are faced with a 25 per cent supply for which they are paying a much higher price. "If the present orders, giving a priority to . New England and the Northwest, remain In full effect until lake navigation closes, a fuel famine of the most serious consequences is inevitable in the middle west. - "Ae we view this situation, we believe that an' immediate modification of these priority orders is mandatory." Europe Choked Up With Surplus Tobacco He Says . LOUISVILLE, Ky., Sept. 10. Firsthand information regarding the tobacco situation abroad has been brought to Louisville by O. O. Tuck, a tobacco handler of .this citjs, after an extensive trip through Western Europe. Tobacco export Is checked, he said, by the general turmoil abroad, unfavorable foreign exchange rates, shipping conditions, unrest of labor in Europe, and the resumption of European tobacco production. In view of these conditions he asserted it is "rather unfortunate" that Kentucky and other tobacco growing states have planted large crops, as indicated by government reports. "Every tobacco manufacturer in Europe," Mr. Tuck said, "has plenty of tobacco -on and and many of them want to sell to other countries."
