III Answer to Situation
CAR SHORTAGE rs
IMPORTANT FACTOR
Attempts of Western Mines
To Relieve Conditions
Handicapped
coMpARATTvE PRICEs.

Government control Of the price and
distribution of coal is the answer to
the present coal situation, and the only
insurance against coal famine in the
northwest next winter, If the present
war continues that long, according to
statements by well versed Fargo coal
dealers today.
Extraordinary demands from the
industrial centers of the east, the
shortage of rolling stock and the chok-
ing OF all transportation routes with
shipments of munitions and other
supplies has induced a situation,
which. instead of improving, will grow
worse as the United States becomes
more actively engaged against Ger
many. The navy, too, now in active
/, service, is taking q heavy toll of the
available supply.
The western coal mines in their eff
forts to relieve the shortage. particu-
larly in the west and northwest, have
been handicapped in the shortage OF
cars, which appears to be the biggest
factor in the situation.
Competition Forces Prices.
Prices have been forced up by the
competition of the various industries
and the railroads in their attempts to
provide themselves against shortage.
Unless more equitable method of dis
tribution is arrived at within the near
future, 1t is certain that prices will
be as much as so per cent higher the
coming fall than last fall.
Some idea of the amount of coal
used in the northwest in one year can
be CLEANED from an excerpt of a report
of e. B. Norris, st. Paul. industrial
commissioner, which says, ITO meet
the normal demand of the northwest,
100000 tons of coal must be trans
ported to the head of the lakes during
the summer season, which averages
200 days. This means that $4,000 tons
of coal must come in daily.
"The great difficulty is in getting
the coal from the mines to the lake
ports owing to the serious car shortage
and the shortage of labor which is
Gripping the mines. Lake navigation
companies have promised to assist as
far as possible, providing the coal
reaches the lakes"
Early Buying is Urged.
"Order your coal today" is the
warning that the Minnesota Railroad
and Warehouse commission has circu-
lated broadcast, which also urges re-
tail dealers to order their next winter s
supply as early as possible.
While there is a feeling in certain
quarters that conditions will adjust
themselves before next fall, the gem
eral understanding is that some heroic
steps must be taken to guard against
a real coal famine, and the resulting
consequences.

Manager Hentschell OF the Postal
Telegraph company, reports that there
are rumors to the effect on the COM
pany's wires that the United States
will soon draft 10000 telegraph OPP
orators to serve in the signal corps in
such positions as electricians and
wireless operators.
The draft will probably take from
three to FIVE men from the Fargo Of
fees is the belief of the local manager.
In the eastern cities the draft will take
the largest number.
Not only are the telegraph operators
to be called to duty. but telephone ex-
perts have been receiving cards the
last few months regarding their cap
abilities. 1t seems that the telephone
companies, of the United States are
collecting this data to ascertain the
number of men who will be available
and trained for telephone service upon
the call from the government.
