COAL CRISIS IS
NOT YET OVER
County Fuel Administrators Are
Busy On The Job
HAVE HOPE AND FAIIH
Mr.. Walter H Hart Is Trying To Bring
Order Out OF Chaos

After making careful inquiry this
morning into the local coal situation.
the Evening Capital is informed that
the crisis is not yet over In fact. at
The present moment Annapolis is
practically without any coal on hand
a any OF the yards
Two OF the local citizens have been
drafted" TO help the Federal Govern
ment These are Messrs. S. S. Mar
tin and w II. Hart. and they are both
now busy on the job-trying to
straighten out the coal tangIe and get
an adequate supply for Annapolis and
Anne Arundel County Since last
Sunday night Mr. Martin has been
from home, and ii is said that he is
paying a personal visit to some of the
mines from which this county obtains
its supply.
This morning the Evening Capital
was informed that Mr. Hart had made
round of the city coal yards, to-
gether with those of Brooklyn, Glen
Burnie and Curtis Bay. Mr. Hart said
'-the crisis is not yet over. and many
families are entirely without coal
But we are trying to bring order out
OF chaos, and to systematic and help
the Administration at Washington
Therefore. hope and faith are the two
essentials"
The Mayor, Mr.. james F. Strange
is still working 10 help the situation
in the city. and his services have been
very valuable by causing idle men to
become employed delivering coal to
families in Annapolis and vicinity
At the present time there is very lit
tie coal ON hand in the city, and some
Of the dealers are refusing to take
orders, as it is said that they now have
orders on file to keep them busy for
the next two weeks.
One Of the largest local consumers
OF coal is Carvel HaHll, and it is said
that their supply on hand is very
small. The County Fuel Administra-
tors have sent in "hurry-up report
to Washington to try and help this
important hosiery, as their consump-
ton Of coal is nearly one hundred tons
a month The Legislature conyenes
in two weeks time, and it would be a
calamity if the hotels were out Of coal
at that time.

SENATOR FRANK DUVALL
CONfERS WITH SEN. SMITH
Visits Washington Ia Reference To
Labor Question Something
Must Be Done.

Yesterday State Senator Frank nj.
Duvsil visited Washington for the ex
press purpose of conference with
Senator John Walter Smith, of Mary
land, in reference 10 the Labor Q1es-
tion.
Keenly alive to all the interests
that vitslly concern this county and Is
people, and being farmer himself,
Senator Dusall realizes that the time
mas come for the United States Gov
eminent to act in the question of Sc
caring labor on the farms, in the
shops and manufacturing plants. II
something il not done, snd done speed
ily crops still in tne held Will become
worthless, shops and industries will be
obliged TO smut down because of lack
of labor.
Senator Dugall will, it is UNDER
stood, introduce Bill ia the Senate
at the coming session of the Legis-
Iature appealing to Congress to in
vestigate the labor situation in Anne
Arundel, wnere the corn crops are still
in the field and the farmers cannot
secure colored labor on the farms
The government mas raised the wages
OF colored help on government work
to such an extent that it is impossible
for farmers or anyone else to compete
with it.
The farmers never planted more,
or raised larger crops than last year,
bat they maintain what is the use If
il is impossible to obtain colored
labor to help harvest the crops.
1t is also maintained that ii the
government has right TO draft white
men for war, it certainly must have
the right to draft cclored labor on the

SENATE APPROVES
 Of AVIATION FIELD
Rushes Through Bill to Acquire
 Land at WeStield

Hartford, March 7-The senate to- day followed the course of the house of yesterday in .passing under sus- pension of the ru1l 6athe bill which will permit the state park commission to acquire beach front in Westport for an aviation park. There was no ex- planation of the bill before it was placed upon passage. It will reach the governor very soon and will be one of the most expeditiously adopted measures of the session.
 In the house Representative Smith of Mansfield, 8 clergyman, spoke against an unfavorable report on his bill aimed to prevent any person not citizen of the United States from performing the marriage ceremony. He argued that no one not citizen should have such a privilege.
 MT. Peasley said the bill had good points but its operation would deprive some men of eminent standing from serving at a marriage. The bill was rejected.
 The laugh in the senate came on Senator Doughan's bill aimed to bear upon registration of Yale students as electors in that it would require that endorsement of an applicant for the franchise should be by an elector who had resided in town at least year. This bill had been sent to the excise committee and it came back today and was sent to the judiciary committee. The house did not have much business today
 The bill unfavorably reported which would make resident directors of nonresident corporations liable to prosecution for violations of the law by the corporations, was tabled after MT. Taylor of Danbury had argued against the report. He, claimed that the bill was good one. A favorable report was made on tho bill prohibiting telegraph companies from employing messengers under the age of 21 between the hour of 10 D. m. and 5 a. m.

 Unsullied Lips.
 Princeton, N. J., March 7.-The an- nual statistics of the senior class have recently been published and discloses some interesting fact about the uni- versity and the members of the class.
 In reply to the, question what Princeton needed most, answers were given in the following order: Endow- ments, better paid professors. foot ball championship. a hockey rink and the restoration of the hazing of fresh- men.
 Friendship, a broader viewpoint and experience. were the most valu- able things gained from college ca- reer. The majority of the seniors admit kissing girl, but twenty-seven men have never done so and forty one feel that 1t is morally wrong to kiss.

HINTS AT END OF
 WAR BY NEXT YEAR
Churchill Intimates Central POYv
 CTS Will be StarTsd by Then sl

. London, March LA speech by Winston Churchill in the House Of Commons yesterday, urging that preparations be made immediately for the 1918 campaign, is construed as in- dicating that the allied authorities dq not expect to end the war this year.
 MT. Churchill intimated 8 strong belief that the blockade will force the collapse of the Central empires and bring about the finish of the war In 1918 without such huge sacrifices or life as would be necessary in forcing a military decision. This view ;. iss widely entertained, and Mr. ChuFt.. chills wide reputation as man wh6 ordinarily favors action gives especiaf significance to such a declaration.
 The government knows that inters nal conditions in Germany and Austria Hungary are very bad, that they are becoming worse rapidly, and that as the nations behind the fighting, lines grow weaker than the armies they cannot support the pressure in-s definitely. s }s
 Men of the Churchill school. ih4 cluding the naval party, believe a con- tinuancc of the blockade of econimic pressure will force Germany to send it's high seas fleet out for a last deA- perate effort This Is lxeenly desired by advocates of extreme measures for the destruction of the German nava4 power, who urge no peace will be safe while Germany possesses its fleet. N
 Meanwhile. with the mobilizing ok the man power resources of the whole world and the tightening of the blockade. the Allies expect to starve the Central emptres into submission. This view is atTt1 9thened by the faet that in the House of Commons: "A. Bonar Law has refused to discuss th1 Salonica campaign, indicating th&x despite widespread criticism 1t yfyt S continNe as. q. part of the plan starve the interior countries. ;ss
