COAL SHORTAGE DUE TO INCREASE
 OF PRODUCTION
Geological Survey w arms People That Increased Man. ufacturing Has Raised De- mand and Use of Coal as Fuel.
(Ry Review Leased Wire ]

WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.-Existence of a general coal shortage was admit ted tonight by the geological survey which attributes the situation not to the failure of producers to do their best, but to the unprecedented demand
 "The tremendous increase in manu- featuring and transportation activity this year." said statement issued to- day, has created a demand for soft coal in excess of any in the past, an increase in demand that is difficult to measure in terms of tons, but that is certainly more than the 10 per cent by which production has increased. To meet this demand the operators have been mining at a rate never before equalled.
 =. ... Producers Blameless. ... =.
 The shortage is not due to the fal- ure of the soft coal mines to produce more coal than in the past, for the country on September 1st was about month ahead of last year in output and is expected to finish the year with an increase of 10 per cent over 1916, the banner year, and 25 per cent over 1915.
 "In the second week of July, 1917, the average daily production was more than 1,900.0O0 tons, the highest point yet attained"
 Ohio's Needs Short.
 A serious coal shortage exists in Ohio, fuel administration officials were told today by a delegation of consum- CTS who came to Washington to pro- test against lifting the ambargo on coal shipment to Canada. Of 200 towns in the state representing more than one million persons, the delegates say. are entirely without coal and are unable to obtain supplies.
 Mayors of small towns, they say, have seized carloads of coal enroute to lakes and has apportioned it among the inhabitants.
 Fuel Plans.
 The fuel administrators first move toward a general apportionment of coal was made today in an order di- recting that mines along the Pennsyl- vania Railroad system supply under a pro-rata plan all the coal the road needs. Later other roads will be sup piled in the same fashion. The final intention is to distribute coal among domestic users and industries where it is most essential.

(By Review Leased wireJ

WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.-Early reg ulation of the baking industry was to- night indicated by Food Administrator Hoover
 Plans for the bread production and distribution are already under consid- eration and will be put into operation as soon as bread baking experiments now being conducted in several cities are completed. Municipal bread de- pots will be provided if its round that the retailers cannot be controlled un- der a voluntary arrangement.
 Seek Standardization.
 The baking industry was left out of the general control food law to be put into effect Nov. l. Before taking any steps to deal with the industry the food administrator wishes, first, to standardize baking flour; second, to standardize bread ingredients and third. to standardize either the size of the loaf or the price.
 Experiments Under Way.
 The bread content will be establish ed on the basis of facts disclosed in the experiments under way. It is hoped to establish a standard bread. containing the same amount always of lard, milk and other ingredients.
 If the size of the loaf is to be stand ardized, Mir. Hoover believes prices can be kept down and if the price, on the other hand. is stabilized, he be- lieves competition will to some extent keep the size of the loaf from being re- duced.
 May License Bakers.
 If licensing system is put into ef- feet it cannot be made to apply under the food control act to retailers and the price will be for bread at the bak- cry door The plan for breod depots will be put into effect, however. if re- tailers refuse to cooperate in holding prices down.
 Bakers Found Guilty.
 LOS ANGELES, Oct II. - Nine baking firms and nine members of in- dividual firms weret found guilty by a jury here today on a charge of conspir- ing to fix bread prices in violation of state antitrust law.
 Indictments were retirned by the county grand jury last May against eleven firms and sixteen individuals following the advertised increase of an increase in bread price which became effective a few days before the indict- ments were voted. The case against two the companies and five individuals later were dismissed.
 Judge Houser announced he would pass sentence next Monday. The pen alty provided by the law is fine of not less than $50 or more than $5,0OO for each convicted corporation and fines in similar amounts or imprison- ment in the county jail for not less than six months or more than one year for each convicted individual.

AMSTERDAM, Oct. 11.-According to some reports here, the discontent in the German navy began eight months ago, and the men of the fleet had reached such a ervous state owing to the prolonged high tension that only a spark was needed to cause an explosion. On board the warships involved, it is said. large numbers of pamphlets were found dealing with the cause of the war and asking why Germany became the most-hated nation in the world. Oth- CTS dilated on the vile influence Of junkerdom and the big mauufactuf ing interests and purported to give the truth about "the man behind the war"
 Fairly relibale accounts put the number of men condemned to penal servitude at 30. whose sentences range from five to fifteen years, while so to 100 were given lighter sen tences.
 The Berlin vossiche Zeitung, in dealing with the situation, says:
 'In attacking the independent so- cialists. the chancellor seems to have failed to understand that he was at tacking not only certain members of the reichstag, but thousands of loyal soldiers. munition workers and agri- culturists. Does the chancellor be- lieve his expression of indignation will suffice to turn these men from the party to which they belong?"

SOCIALISTS I S OPEN WAR ON CAPELLE AND CHANCELLOR
Aftermath of Mutiny on Ger man Battleships Augurs III for tn e Internal Govern ment of the Central En- pire.
(By Review Leased wire.)

COPENHAGEN, Oct. 1.-The i'm mediate results of the disclosures of Chancellor Michaelis and Vice Admi- ral von Capelle have been that the government socialists have been driv- en into complete opposition and into alignment with the radical socialists; the followers of Philip Scheidemann have delivered a formal declaration Of war aganist the government until Chancellor Michaelis Mas been remov ed from office, and that the radicals. the members of the center and even the national liberals have criticised and condemned the Michaelist-Capelle move as one which ought not to have been made unless the government had full, adequate proof of the complicity of the three radical socialists in an actual conspiracy to mutiny-proof which they evidently believe the gov ernment will be unable to produce. .. The Charge
 Stripped of its embellishments, the government statement reduced itself to the charge that agitation to enroll membres for the radical social ist party had been carried on in the army; that leaflets had been distribut- ed, and that two of the executed sail CTS had visited Deputies Haase, Vogt- herr and Dittman.
 Michaeis Censured
 The three socialists made great play of the fact that the government had made no attempt to bring them to trial. and they argued that the crown prosecutor would not have missed such an opportunity if he had any evidence upon which to convict them. This argument evidently ap- peals to all but the conservatives, and is declared to be the attitude of a large share of the press, which, despite dislike for the radical social ists, takes the stand that Chancellor Michaelis misused the affair for polit- ical capital.

The Kaiser S God

Our recent editorial on Hope for Germany

for some remarks on the German God. We had

psychology of their enemies" and it seemed to
our correspondent that they might protitably ex-

Early in the war German pastor declared
that Germany ought to reject the New Testament
and cling nightly to the Old Testament. Away
with the gentle Nazarene! Give us instead the
God of Battles!
In a report from Amsterdam of an address by
the kaiser to his troops on the Verdun front the
following passage is quoted: "The year 1917
with it's great battles has proved that the German
people have in the Lord of Creation above an un-
conditional and avowed ally on whom it can abso-
lutely rely. Without him all would have been in
vain
We shall quote presently from several Ger
man preachers and religious writer's, but we do
not intend to lay an undeserved emphasis upon
any one citation. We aim merely to exhibit what
seems to us a trend. To our way of think, the
trend is away from Christianity and toward the
religion not of the Prophetic Period but of Old
Israel.
"We have become a nation of wrath" says the
a German dramatist and critic Phillippi 1--WE think
only of war. We execute God Amighty's will,
and the edcts of his justice we will fulfill in
vengeance upon the ungodly. God calls us to

THE QUAKER DECISION


Quakersm is today facing the grav-
est crisis of it's existence. The great
war now raging and the waves of pa
triotic fervor sweeping the country
are causing many good Friends just
little doubt as to whether their prin-
ciples as conscientious DIRECTORS to
war will stand the test The clergy
men are advising their flocks to de-
pend on the conscience for guidance
in making their decisions and then in
the same breath, lest tradition should
be broken, hint just what their con-
sciences ought to say; that is, that it
is sinful to help in the present war.
This in itself seems to show fear on
the part of the clergy that Quaker
principles might have to be favored
with a little practical sense in rela
ton to the present war. Then, too,
the patriotic love of America and of
liberty and the desire to help the OPP
pressed that throbs in every real
American is making it's call felt in
Quakerdom. Many have already ans
wered. many more will doubtless do
so and all are trying to define what

Society of Friends being tossed and
the outside world is watching with
some interest and great deal of i'm
patience the ultimate result of the
clash between the Great Experiment

of today.
A Quaker gentleman the other day,
after having read the account of one
of the big battles, with all its horrors.
threw down his paper and exclaimed.
MY God how can anyone not be a
conscientious objector." The gentle
man was right. How can anyone not
be a conscientious objector to war.
Nevertheless. the fact remains. that
the consciences of few other gentle
men, including the Kaiser, are not
quite so sensitive and they see no
harm whatever in numbering few
