Saws Sterrow-People Must Burn
Soft Coal to Quite an Extent in Their
Houses-Wil Be Enough Coal OF
Some Kind

Boston. Jan Sits going to be
hard !; Ill for the next 100 days Tor
New England factories" James J.
Storrow, New England fuel admins
traitor said in a statement on the coal
situation upon his arrival from WASH
ington late tonight They certainly
canno, run all the time" he added.
Mr.. Storrow said he was practically
certain that there would be enough
coal either hard or soft, to take care
0 fthe householders Of New England.
There is 10 doubt" he continued,
that people muse burn soft coal to
quite an extent in their houses during
the next fortnight. We are not used to
soft coal in our houses and nobody
likes 1t. but ] hope epople will accept
the necessity in good spirit.
Mr.. Storrow called attention TO the
arrangement that had been made be-
tween National Fuel Administrator
Garfield and Director General of Rail-
roads McAdoo whereby 500 extra cars
focal a day will move into New
England. The 500 a day car order.
he said. lis subject to revocation with
out notice Should this order be re-
vozed, without doubt it would close
many plants. incidentally shutting off
munitions and military supplies"
In addition to the 800 cars q day Mr..
Storrow pointed out that the Shipping
Board has arranged to place in the
New England coal carrying service
half dozen additional steamers.
This" he said, will not keep all Of
New England's factories running all
the time 1t will take a fortnight--in
fact. probably three weeks OF begin to
feel the real benefit from these rene
dial measures.
Not 4 single anthracite coal barge
has yet been freed from the ice at the
Delaware river to begin to move to-
ward New England: but unless storm
intervenes we expect to see some of
them moving toward Providence, Bos
ton. Portland and other New England
ports by Tuesday.
Tomorrow we will send represent
alive TO Philadelphia and we are going
to communicate with the fuel admins
