AMER|CUS' COAL
SUPPLY Is OUT;
BINS HERE [ EMPTY
ALL LOCAL DEALERS SAY THEY
ARE WITHOUT STOCKS AND DUR
ING THE DAY WERE UNABLE TO
FILL ORDERS.

Americus faced its first actual coal
famine this morning when various
dealers here were forced to decline
orders because their stocks were en-
tirely exhausted. There is little pros
pect that the situation will be relieved
until after the weekend, although
there are three or four care en- route
here.
Two dealers who refused to book or
ders during the day, except subject
to indefinite delay, said they expected
some Alabama coal would arrive dur
ing the next few days, but there ia
little prospect that any of this will ar
rive in time for use during the pre-
vailing cold spell.
Lee Allen, fuel administrator for
Sumter county, made a personal visit
to the various cold yards here this
morning to inspect them and ascer-
tain the exact conditions He has
called a meeting of coal dealers for
this Afternoon at four o'clock at the
Chamber of Commerce, at which time
plans for securing an emergency sup
ply for Americus will be discussed.
Mr.. Allen, u addition, will today write
Dr. L. G. Haldman, state fuel aamin-
i5trator, and appeal to him to assist
il relieving the conditions that W
exist in Americus.
