PRODUCTION Of
COAL SHOWS BIC
DROP IN AUGUST
Digging Must Be Speeded to
Avert Shortage Feared by
Some.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1S.-Reports
10 the geological survey on produc'
Ion Of bituminous coal show a de-
crease during August at the rate OF
more than 100000 tons month and
Indicate that shortage this winter
feared by many government oficials
may be reality unless production
shows a decided increase.
Indications that while there will be
sufficient anthracite for domestic con.
sumption there may be an insufficient
supply of bituminous to keep indus
rial plants going at their present
capacity.
Reports to officials hero say Canad'
ian interests withdrew approximately
100000 tons of bituminous coal from
the United States, the period that
elapsed between the government Ak
ing of a fat coal price and the plac.
ing Of the embargo.
They are reported to have obtained
this large stock by giving from 25 to
so cents per ton higher than the price
set by the American government.
Other contributing factors to the
situation are the growing needs OF
France and Italy with which to keep
munition factories and other war time
industries going there.

Knitters Face to
Face With High Cost
of Being Patriotic

NEW YORK, Sept. 1S.-Feminine
knitters of articles of wearing apparel
for soldiers and Sailors are beginning
to worry about the high cost of being
patriotic. An increase of twenty cents
a hank in the price of wool today put
it at the dollar mark. Since April the
price per pound has risen from $1.5O
to s240 to the Red Cross and other
relief organizations that are supplied
by the manufacturer and wholesalers
at the lowest figures.
In all the relief societies, the policy
prevails of asking the knitter of wool
to return her finished garment to the
society. Consequently, if the knitter
wishes to present her own particular
hero without something of her own
making, she cannot get wool at the re-
duced prices offered by the relief so
cieties.
Manufacturers attribute the rise
partly to the fact that the government
now is using much raw wool for uni
forms, and to the high wages paid mill
labor.
