COAL SALES LIMITED
Consumers Having Ample Supply Not
to Be Permitted to Hoard Fuel
Those in Need to Be First Supplied.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Nov. Sin order to pre-
vent persons already having an ample
supply of coal from boarding a big
supply now at the expense of their
neighbors, the state fuel advisory COM
mittee has devised a series Of ques-
lions which must be answered by those
buying coal now before they get the
coal.
These questions are as follows:
Amount of coal desired? Kind used
last year? Approximate amount used
last year.? Pounds or tons on hand
at present time? Will last approx
mately -? Have you any untitled
orders with other dealers?
Transfers report that in many in
stances they are delivering coal to
places already we'll supplied while less
fortunate neighbors are entirely with
out. This new plan is to try to avoid
sending coal where it is not needed
especially and denying those who need
it badly. The plan has worked sue
cessfully in Illinois, it is reported.
The public hearing on the coal ques-
ton to be conducted by the League of
Iowa Municipalities will be held at the
state house, Nov. %. Governor Hard
ing and three mayor members of the
league will hear the evidence. The
inquiry will go into the cost of coal
at the mines, the prices being asked
for it, the shortage and the reasons
therefor.
Clifford Thorne will represent the
municipalities. 1t is claimed that pub
lie utility companies such as electric
light. water and gas companies, are
planning to increase their service rates
in cities because of the cost Of coal.
