4 LATE START.

The president and DR.. Garfield
must have been aware for some
time Of the growing seriousness
Of the coal situation and the pos
sibility OF a real crisis, such as
has come upon lis. As we have
said, that mightteven have been
anticipated eight months ago
with the lesson Of last winters
difficulties before MS. 1t easily
could have been anticipated sin
weeks ago, when most certainly
preparations should have been
hurried. Action then could have
been taken over limited areas, re
stricting certain manufacturers in
alternating weeks so that the ter
minals,cOuld have been cleared of
freight for the loading of coal on
the ships, some of which have
been IN port almost two months.
II such a program had been fol
lowed, we would not have had
one-halt Of the country thrown
into most distressing turmoil,
the effect Of which must be
harmful, no matter how much
coal is saved. Millions of dollars
in wages will be lost in The next
five day, but that will be Of
small import compared With the
discomfort, misunderstanding and
lack ol confidence in the admin
istration that will follow. Also
il is plain that this situation will
be used by orr enemies 10 The
greatest advantage in reviving
the spirits Of their depressed poo-
PIE. Certainly it j. the most dis
astrous result of the lack of fore
sightedness that we have ever
known.
