Mr.. Blair appeared before tho com

Nersal skip-stop system for the street
cars of the city He stated that the
government had requested all cities
in the country to resort to this system
for the period of the war for the
conservation OF coal He stated that
Washington and Baltimore and sew
eral other cities had adopted the sNs
tenn and that in Washington II had
n"cn estimated that 1000 tons Of coal
would be conserved during the wear.
That amount would not be saved In
Richmond. it vas pointed out be-
cause tho electric plants here use much
water power, and the city is much
smaller than Washington. But. h~

three or four thousand tons.
