Joint Action Planned by Fuel
Administration and Depart
ment of Justice.
RECEIVE MANY COMPLAINTS

The fuel administration and the De-
partment of Justice are taking JOINT
action to prevent coal dealers. whole

NAL prices for coal. and If the inVes-

No general inquiry into coal prices
has been begun, but complaints sent
direct to the Department of Justice are
now being investigated by the United
States district attorneys in localities
where the complaints originated. The
object of these Investigations is to de-
termine whether the margin Of profit
allowed coal dealers has been exceeded,
but to date no results have been re-
ported to the department here.
Complaints Reach DR.. Garfield.
a large number of complaints as to
high prices charged by coal dealers has
been received by DR.. Garfield's office,

the Department of Justice, or at least
all that indicate the cases might fur

state fuel administrations, some of
which have only been begun. State
fuel administrators from twelve states
had their first conference with DR.. Gar

eating and controlling prices were
among the things given consideration.
The law. approved August 10 last,
under which the food and fuel aGnninis

cific as to what action may be taken
against fuel dealers who exceed the
prices fixed by the President, and sec
