USERS MUST CONSERVE COAL.
Fuel Administrator Garfield Says
Economy Must Be Practiced.

Washington. Sept. 14.-Through the
Chamber of Commerce Of the United
States, DR.. II. A. Garfield, fuel admin
istrator, has appealed to American
business to assist in the conservation
of coal DR.. Garfields appeal IN the Of
fetal publication Of the chamber Is as
follows:
1T is the duty OF every American to
save coal this winter II every family
will save a ton of coal. If every indus
trial plant will save 10 per cent OF the
coal it uses, which 10 per cent Is now
wasted, the coal problem will be large
y solved There is plenty Of coal in the
ground, but there is a shortage Of labor
at the mines.
IF every family will reduce the tenn
perature Of It's house at least five de-
grees, It will mean that millions Of tons
OF coal will be saved and the health or
the nation will be improved. This is
not a hardship; 1t is a health measure,
for most Americans live in superheated
houses.
THE solution Of the coal problem lies
largely with the American people. The
government cannot save coal for them !;
they must save 1t for themselves. They
must not rely wholly upon price fixing
nor upon the already over-taxed trans
portation systems of the country, nor
upon the effort to increase production,
nor upon the apportionment Of cal, nor
upon the enforcement Of the law. All
must cooperate. The consumer OF coal
in house and afctory can CO. Operate
most effectively by the economies sug-
gested."
