COAL MINES MUST
SHORTEN HOLIDAY
More Than Day Will Increase
Fuel Shortage Distress,
DR.. Garfield Says.

If operators and miners take more
than one day as holiday this Christ
mas the country will be plunged deeper
into distress on account Of the fuel
shortage, Fuel Administrator Garfield
declared today. Prospects of wide
spread and serious fuel famine have
drawn from Administrator Garfield the
request that operators and miners OBJ
serve only Christmas day as q holiday
this year. The custom has been to stop
work for at least three days both at
Christmas and at New Year.
Two million tons of coal are lost to
the supply of the country every day the
miners take day off, 1t was explained
by fuel officials. A prolonged holiday
season. the administration declared.
would cause great distress in many sec
tions where the fuel supply Is low.
Policy to Protect Homes First.
The fuel administration today re-
iterated it's policy of home protection
first when it announced that household
ers throughout the nation will be taken
care of in advance of industries.
In line with this theory, Administrator
Garfield last night gave w. K Prudden,
fuel administrator for Michigan, authority
to shut off supplies to industrial plants or
to any other users IL it was necessary to
meet the needs of domestic consumers
Mr.. Prudden was also authorized by the
administration to close down any plants.
theaters or non-essential places during
the holiday season, II the need became
imperative.
State authorities elsewhere. 1t was an
nounced, will be given the same powers
IL 1t appears the situation warrants such
radical measures.
Blizzard in Ohio Aggravates.
Ohio is still having coal troubles. Of
ficials have wired to the administration
that a blizzard Is making the situation
there even more desperate. Conditions
in some sections are SO critical that dis
tress has resulted, and on many railroads
three locomotives are necessary to move
