COAL PANIC"
IS UNWARRANTE Ed
Trade Commission Asks LegiS-

International News Service:

WASHINGTON, May 5.-A buy
ing panic" which viii play into the
hands of retailers and jobbers and
cost the American public millions is
Imminent in the anthracite coal in
dustry. The federal trade commits
sion took steps today to check it by
placing the facts before the United
States.
There is absolutely no excuse for
the panic, the commission says, nor
for any increase in price. On the
contrary it declares the present
prices are in no way warranted by
the cost of production. The COM
mission takes sharp issue with job
bers who have declared that they
could not make summer discounts
The larger anthracite operators, II
finds. Will make their usual reduc-
tons and il says there is no reason
why these should not be passed on
to the consumers. The commission
also promises TO create "A black
list" of all who take undue adVan-
tage of the necessities Of the people.
In its report the commission also
finds that there is an adequate sup
DIV of coal: that it Will be taken out
as usual during the summer and
that mine prices Will be reasonable.
It declares that congress must en-
act legislation TO prevent specula-
ton in coal and TO see that coal
cars are kept moving TO their desti-
nations and not held up for specu-
lative reasons
After reviewing the resolution
which authorized the investigation
and declaring that the 1916 buying
manic was unnecessary the report
continues.
.The commission finds. that at the
present moment, the symptoms of
the former unwarranted panic are
recurring. This is intolerable and
the commission now. without wait
ing 10 complete its report on past
conditions. is moved TO call the at
+ention of the senate to the danger
threatening consumers Of anthracite
coal"
The report concludes.
The fair retail price is that az
the mouth Of the mine. plus the cost
Of freight and the reasonable charge

WASHINGTON, May Awake
at last to the submarine peril. con-
gress today prepared to enact
measures placing every available re-
source and energy Of the nation az
the administration disposal in COM
batting the under-sea warfare.
Powers more drastic and sweeping
than any ever possessed by any
ruler i'm the history of the world
will be conferred upon the president
TO fight the submarine menace, if
leaders have their way.
The administration will lay be-
fore congress on Monday a bill,
drafted by the shipping board, de-
signed TO increase shipbuilding to
the highest possible degree. 1t will
provide not merely for the COM
Wandering of all ship building IA
cilities but will authorize also the
requisitioning of all necessary ma
terials for ship construction. It is
hoped by this method TO increase
the output of American ship yards
sufficiently to nearly offset the de-
struction by submarines.
To Insure Men.
Sen Simmons, chairman OF the
senate finance committee, was ready
today TO ask imm ediate considera-
ton of the $50, 600, 600 war risk bill
TO provide life and accident insur-
ance 10 the officers and crews of
American merchantmen lost during
the war. The bill is sponsored by
the administration and will aid in
getting ships crews for voyages
through the barred zone. it is be-
lieved. Sen. McCumber Of North
Dakota. is leading a determined
fight in the senate for adoption Of
a resolution eating a board Of
merchant shipping defenses 10 study
the undersea warfare and devise
methods of combating the sub
marine The resolution carries an
appropriation Of 100000 TO con-
duct experiments and investigations
of inventions to destroy the sub
marine
Sen. McCumber takes the position
that the submarine cannot be de-
feated by "over feeding" and that
il is folly 10 build more ships and
load them with costly cargoes merely
i'm the hope that they will be made
too numerous for the German L
