Hint Regarding Our Coal supply.


Hint Regarding Our Coal supply.
London. May 14-John Jermyn, of
Scranton. Pa, the American anthracite
United States is able to rescue England
from the present coal famine, and If
necessary supply the whole world. Mr..
JermSn said:
Great Britains extremity is Ameri-s
cas- opportunity to demonstrate its own
boundless resources. Present conditions
in Great Britain mean that Americas
export trade is likely to receive re-
markable impetus. If the situation here
is as strained as reported Importation is
inevitable.
European countries having already
been forced to invade the United States
in order TO supply their own necessities
in the way of coal supply, England
can expect no relief at their hands. 1t
is not Impossible that this coal famine
will open England's eyes to the superb
GRITTY of anthracite over bituminous coal
for domestic uses. The result of this
enlightment will be that more bitumin-
Gus coal will be demanded for the ma
tion's naval, railroad and industrial re-
quiremen,s. 1t is the case however. that
the United States are by no means too
productive for home consumption"
alprices are the stiffest ever known
in the united Kingdom. This conaition
Of affairs has given rise TO a suggestion
that parliament take action to prevent
the expectation of coal from the king
dom. a meeting Of the associated coal
operators Will be held this week TO con-
slider the advisability of a further ad-
vance Of 3 shillinss ts1.25) a ton in the
price OF their commodity.
