To Garry Specific Measures.

The coal regulations to be issued will
carry specific measures to deal with
distribution and superintendent prob
lens. The intention is to distribute
coal first in communities in which it is
most needed and to prevent the prac-
tice of duplicating freight hauls. Pur-
chasers will be required to buy coal at
mines nearest, and an operator in In
diana will not be permitted to sell in
Pennsylvania or another eastern state
where an eastern mine could serve the
particular customer with shorter
freight haul
DR.. Garfield conferred yesterday with
representatives of the coal industry
and received suggestions concerning
the situation and the operators ideas
as to how it best may be handled.
1t was made clear to the operators
that inefficient producers in the indus
try will suffer and that some individu-
ais will be forced out of business, but
that the position of the government as
set forth is that the industry itself and
the public will benefit thereby.

Regulations Will Be Strict.

The government. 1t is learned. will
not permit coal dealings at prices
higher than those named by the Presi-
dent on the grounds Of existing con-
tracts unless it is proved that the con-
tracts are bona fide.
Regulations governing coal transac-
lions probably will be made public
within a few days. They will provide
for a licensing system for operators
and jobbers and for an extension OF the
system to retail transactions II retail
prices are fixed
some offcials still are of the opinion
that it will not become necessary to Tx
retail prices and that the situation can
be handled satisfactorily with prices
set for operators and jobbers. They be-
lieve the government has done enough
when it fixes prices down to the COM
munities and that communities can
care for the situation as it applies to
them.
This position is supported by the ar
gument that it will be extremely diff
cult to maintain a fat scale of retail
prices due to varying costs of handling
in different communities.

COAL PRICES MUST
CAUSE REAL SAVING
Otherwise U. S. Will Take Over
Entire Output, Administrator
Garfield Announces.
TO CUT RETAILERS PROFITS

If the price-fxing schedules on coal
do, not result in a real saving to the
American householder, then the govern
ment will step in and take the entire
coal output of the country In its own
hands.
This is the implied promise of DR..
H. A. Garfield, the new coal admins
traitor, who has issued statement on
the subject.
"All the machinery given me will be
used to enforce the prices named by
President wilson," said Dr. Garfield.
"Our purpose will be to secure all the
benefits contemplated in the act and
the fuel control put into force Will IN
sure a reduction to the consumer. ANY
person who thinks this will not mean a
reduction in retailers profits will ind
he is mistaken.
Each possible remedy under the bill
designed to remedy present conditions
will be studied, and we will be ready
to put into force any of its provisions.
