COAL men DEMAND
30 CENT INCREASE
Operators Tell Federal Commission
They Face Serious Problem.

NJ. W. Busch, representing the Ala
bama coal operators, told the Federal
Trade Commission yesterday that un-
less approximately so cents per ton
was added to the government price
for coal from the Alabama fields, pro-
duction there would have to cease. In
support of his argument. Mr.. Busch
presented figures on cost Of produc-
ton compiled by the producers in that
district.
Pittsburgh operators held a meet
ing here yesterday and decided to fol-
low in the lead of operators in other
districts and offer their books to prove
that the prices based on the Federal
Trade Commissions figures were too
low. Several of the Pittsburghers de-
clared that unless the government re-
vised the figures upward they would
resort to the courts under the plea
that the prices are confiscatory.
The general attitude of the coal op-
orators in Washington now, however,
Is to wait for H. A. Garfield, the coal
controller, to take charge. 1t is prob
able that the Pittsburgh district op-
orators, the Kentucky men and the
Illinois men, will present figures,
backed up by affidavits and their
books. to Mr.. Garfield within the next
few days.

the scene of all his successes. and
the stage of his ups and downs in
the newspaper game. Maj. Oliver p.
Newman. former Commissioner of the
District, last night voiced the sorrow
and regret with which he broke the ties
OF the city in which he had spent so
many years of his public career.
1T hurts me more than / can ex-
press to break the ties which bind
me to the most attractive city in
the world" declared the newly ap-
pointed major of artillery. 'I real
ly believe that would rather starve
on a park bench in Washington
than live in luxury in any other city
in the country.
Although there is not the hustle
and hustle of New York in the Dis
trict, still there is something in
expressible in the charms of this
city. / never expect 70 find in my
travels. although / go round the
world and see every nook and CO.
ner in this little old globe, the hne
men. the fine companions and the
courtesy and warmth with which
one meets in the District.
Leaves City Today.
The parting is made less keen
er by the prospect of my new work
will have my mind occupied In
the next few months with the
breaking in of 500 raw recruits, and
the training OF four hundred horses
/ think that will keep me from be-
coming too -homesick for the city
in which / have spent so many years
of pleasure and enjoyment"
And, the boyishly appearing man
OF affairs of the District, his face
Frightening with a smile, which had
some faint tinge of sadness in IL
withall, held out his hand in token
of farewell.
Maj. Newman has been a resi-
dent Of the District for years and
will retain his residence in Wash

tary duty.
The former commissioner left yes.
terday morning for Petersburg. Va
his new post of duty. He will imme.
diately take command of a batal-

CHRISTMAS APPEAL
FOR men in FRANCE
Committee of Defense Asks Aid to
Take Santa to Troops.

AohS Oohto " itoOPo.
The officers of the National Com
mittee of Patriotic and Defense So
cieties, Lieut.. s. B. NJ. Young. of
Washington. George Wharton Pep
per. of Philadelphia, Edward Hard
ing and William P. Bonbright. of
New York, and William Nather
Lewis, Washington. have issued an
appeal to the forty national or
ganizations they represent to give
the matter of Christmas presents to
the soldiers in France and to the
allies. careful consideration.
The officers fear that unless some
well devised intelligent plan is evolv-
ed in which the whole nation may
join, many movements will be start
ed. which will overlap and in nu-
merous cases be worse than useless.
A comprehensive plan properly de-
veloped, 1t is set forth, might be a
real factor in the success of the war.
1t would be appropriate, 1t is stated
in the appeal, to devote the vast
sum of American Christmas money
to the relief of the sick and wound
ed soldiers in France; to the re-
habilitation of ruined French VIII
lages, and the support of the war
Orpnan9 ana crlppieS.
The transportation problem Is a
serious one confronting the plan
the country is warned not to tax the
already limited railroad and shipping
facilities with bulky packages Of use
less articles.
A special appeal will be made to
the children of this country to send
money with which TO purchase gifts
for the children of France. The Of
fcers of the National Committee feel
that 1t is most advisable that any
societies planning Christmas cam
pafgns advise the committee and al
so, get in touch with-one Of the ma
tionaI relief organizations which Is
already sending aid abroad. Several
high government officials have al.
ready expressed their approval OF
this concerted Christmas giving idea.
