Conservation of Coal Must Not Be
Carried at Expense of Health
In These Flu Times

Both the United States Fuel Admin

announced today that there was no
reason for delaying longer the start
ing of furnace fires If weather condi-

houses, apartments and office build
ings.
DR.. Garfield said that when people
were suffering from influenza in their
homes or apartment houses the fire
should be started promptly and the
local Fuel Administration expressed
its willingness to cooperate promptly
with families in which the disease
existed, but which had not yet re-
ceived their winters coal supply.
1t was made plain that apartment
house owners who gave as an excuse
for not starting fires the explanation
that they had been asked not to do
so until November / by the Fuel Ad-
ministration were misrepresenting the
facts and were regarded by Dr. Gar
