COAL CONTROLLER
PLANS FOR WINTER

LONDON, June 22.-(By Malll T.
Having passed thru the third winter
of the war without n serious coal
shortage, England is today preparing
for the coal season of next winter
The coal controller is planning an
elaborate organization for dealing
With the country's supply, the ques-
ton of labor, and of public economy.
More than a quarter of million
miners enlisted in the army during
the first two years and half. APP
proximately million were engaged
before the war. As result the min
ing industry was seriously weaken
ed, and the output of coal greatly di-
minished.
National service will probably be
extended to cover this field of op-
erations during the summer and fall,
but the controller is going much
deeper into the question of supply and
demand. He Is tracing the consign.
ments Of coal from the pits 70 their
consumers, ascertaining how far tho
fuel has to be transported, and how
it is taken from the various collieries
to the various consumers.

Several millions of Japanese whose
livelihood depends directly or Indirect
ly, on the tea industry are today root
ing for a bone dry America.
The connection between the tea
fields of Nippon and the brass rail
of the United States isn't as vague
as it appears, for George f. Mitch
ell, supervising tea examiner of the
U. S. Treasury department, who is
in the Orient inspecting the tea in
dustry, has made the statement that
the big boom in Americas tea con-
sumption may be due to the spread
of the prohibition wave.
In 1916, according to Mitchell,
America drank 100 100000 pounds of
tea and is consuming more of the
beverage every day. Tea from Japan
is the most popular in America.
Forty-two and two-tenths of the tea
America drinks comes from this
country and Formosa. And over
one pound of tea is drunk per capita
in the United States, says Mitchell.
