lieve Middle West.

Washington, Dec.> o0.--To further re-
lieve the fuel situation in the middle
west and northwestern states fuel ad-
illustrators have voluntarily agreed
to curtail rail shipments to that Sec
ton for the next 30 days. the fuel adj
ministration was advised today by
John r. McGee. state administrator
for Minnesota. The suspension Of the
shipments was proposed after confer
ences by northwestern administrators
with w. II. Goyernman in charge Of
the. distribution OF coal in the north
west.
BY the exercise OF strict economy the
northwestern states hope 10 get along
for the next three months with the
coal supply secured by lake transpor-
tation before winter closed naviga-
ton on the lakes. This supply will
be augmented by wood. which Mr..
MCGEE advised DIR. Garfield was be-
ing generally used in some parts Of
Minnesota.
