Biturninous Coal
Mines Smashing
Production Record
One Weeks Output a Million
Tons Above Require
nents

Production records are being smashed
in bituminous fields. although so
many miners have been called to army
service. Every soft-coal region is re-
porting greater output than ever be-
fore. 1.-The Coal Age states. For the
week ended July 13, the total of hi
luminous coal shipped from mines
amounted to 1928, 900 net tons. which
is more than 100000 tons above the
average weekly requirements of the
fuel administration as necessary to
meet essential demands. The average
weekly production Of soft coal from
April l to date. however. is estimated
at 11,568,000 net tons. Therefore. to
make up the total deficit of 9.6l5.000
net tons which now exists 1t will be
necessary to have approximately tea
more weeks of production equivalent
10 that OF the week ended July 13, or
an output of 12,472,000 net tons dur
ing each of the thirty-seven weeks
remaining IN the coal year, which ends
March 81, 1919 During the week
under review shipments of anthracite
amounted to 42,33l cars, which shows
ings Of recent weeks.
In spite Of the large tonnage of BIZ
luminous, the supply continues too
light TO permit OF the creation of ade-
quate reserve stocks against the time
when bad weather viii interfere with
the expeditions movement of cars. The
requirements of manufacturing plants
have been vastly increased by the mag
nitude of the work they are doing for
the government, and the importance of
obtaining shipments substantially in
excess OF current needs cannot be too
strongly emphasized.
The efforts Of the fuel administra-
tion, operators and miners to increase
production must therefore be supple
mented by the elimination of every
wasteful or unnecessary use Of coal.
The railroads are making Increasing
demands for fuel, and nothing is heard
of car shortage in any direction. In
fact, transportation has caught up with
output in way that is really aston
ishing. The labor difficulties, however,
multiply rathel than diminish. There
are restrictions now on the movement
Of labor from one section to another.
and already there are interesting re-
suits in the coal industry particularly
in the Pocahontas and New River dis
tr.cts.
Developments during the past week
have given the market a hopeful aspect.
and consumers are beginning to believe
that perhaps after all the situation may
not turn out to be so bad as feared.

Coffee Futures Yesterdays market
for coffee contracts was quiet, but on
the small volume of business there
were rather wide fluctuations. The
opening was 2 to 8 points above the
previous close, with fair trade de
mand, offerings coming from Wall
Street for foreign account believed to
be liquidation, most of the early busi-
ness being in the Septe ember position.

Later, however, withdrawal Of de-
mand caused prices to decline rather
sharply, final figures being 8 points net
lower to / point net advance. Peace
rumors failed to have any effect on
prices.
Foreign operators who recently have
been buying May contracts were not
actively in the market, and it is be-
lieved that they have become more or
less discouraged by the action of val
ues, as the tendency has been to de-
cline sharply as soon as the foreign
orders had been filled.
One Of the features in the market
was the sharp advance in Rio exchange
on London, which came 5-32 higher, or
4 gain of 5A per cent from the recent
low point. The cost and freight market
was quiet, with practically no business
doing. A private cable from Brazil
said: impossible to make offers, as
there is no exchange market" About
the only offers here were Santos q at
1l35c, steamer shipment, London cred

Cottonseed Oil Futures-The market
for cottonseed oil contracts was again
dull and featureless with prices nom
inal. The spot situation was steady
with prices holding around 2l15 cents.
Offers were light and the demand was
of routine character. 1t is expected
that the food administration will an
nounce the price for the new crop of
crude after the first of the month. but
nothing has developed to give any in
timation as to whether or not it will
be changed from the prevailing price
of l7I2 cents

That mother looked pleased at the state
ment, but said nothing of not having lain
down one minute since the doctor left the
evening before. She will be able to rest
tonight, thought father, who though unable
to assist, rolled and tossed in agony all
night, but kept silent watch but not so. for
the evening call of the physician had an
other surprise for the faithful watcher
"This boy is in bad way and it will re-
qlre double the attention you gave the
girl to pull him through" She listened in
almost heartbroken silence for she had al
ready been on duty twenty-four hours.
But you must let the nurse stand watch
tonight, - reasoned the father Ono, | must
save my boy and work with him as long as
there is hope,' she bravely replied, and
the weary Of twenty-four hours of duty fell
from her and a bright, hopeful face went
ON duty and the work was begun A long
story short, as we left our home for the
city Friday morning and said, "Watchman,
what Of the night?" clear distinct voice
replied, "Ten days out and all is well.''
Nothing, to our mind is more responsible
for mo love like a mothers love" than
such heroic efforts on the part of mothers
IN nursing their loved ones back to health.

CONVENTION OVERDOES IT

Rev. W. D. Carter has been selected as
one Of the ten delegates to represent the
Equal Rights League Of the United States
at the Peace Congress in Europe. Why the
need of so many delegates is more than we
can figure out. YEA we are not only I'M
able to figure the necessity Of so large
number of delegates from one organization,
but we are thoroughly convinced that it is
mistake. The League would have shown
wisdom to have selected one Of it's fore
most men to have gone to Versailles and
done whatever he could in connection with
other coored men there to better the col
ored mans condition throughout the United
States But this League has sent more dele
gates to the Peace assembly than has the
United States Government In other words
the Washington convention of the League
adjourned to meet in Versailles, and to do
nothing more than it did in Washington
City. The National Association for the Adj
vancement of Colored People, days before
even President Wilson sailed for Europe,
had sent Dr. Dubois to Versailles where he
has been laborng without fuss or feathers
but weeks after President Wilson has reach
ed the Peace table this League sends a
whole convention of men over there, who
will be able to accomplish nothing, but show

CHRISTMAS
christmas comes but once a year


Let every niger have his shear
ran plantation jingo in ante-bellum days
OF the South and he or she, who failed to
get his or her share of such as there were
for distribution was due more to the in
capacity Of not holding it than to any Mig

"Christmas is not what it used to be- is so
often heard and we take pleasure in joining
in that refrain.
No, to us the Christmas of today is not
what it used to be- The joy and happiness
OF the Christmas Of today are dependent on

it. Each child must have not less than $40
to make his or her purchases for the other
members of the family and in addition the
head of the house is expected to see to it
